Market-day la Brlttaay.
Next day was market day.- It was
touching to hear the clattering of sa
bots on tbe cathedral pavement, and
see, one alter another, some rough-look-in:;,
long-haired peasant farmers or
market women deposit their huge
basket on the floor, and meekly kneel
ing on their knees, pray reverently to
their favorite saint. There is evidently
fervent piety here, in spite of what I
heard the other day from a landed pro
prietor of La Vendee. "The French
peasants are no longer what they were,
he said to me. "The Yendeaos are now
aa ardent Kepublieans as before they
were KoyalUts, and they distract and
dislike the priests. But in Brittany
changes work slowly, and nowhere else
do you we so many priests, nuns,
churches, and religious institutions.
The market-place was an animating
sight. !o crowded were the halles
with venders of eggs, poultry, butter,
vegetables, flour, fish, die, that I could
hardly get from one end to the other.
Corn, flour, and other country produce
are here brought to market and sold
in small quantities, much talking and
tauter going on all the time. Any
thing less like an English market-day
cannot be conceived. Here were cos
tumes from all parts; the blue vests and
jackets of the men, braided with gold,
blue trousers, and broad felt hats with
hanging ends predominating. Some of
the women wore high coal-scuttle
shaped h:its of white muslin with fly
ing ends, pretty ruffs round the neck,
breastplates bordered with gold braid,
black dresses, white chemisettes, and
gay violet, red, or even orange aprons.
The true Breton breek or brogne is
getting rarer and rarer, and is seldom
sn even on the very old men ; but it
will be long before uniformity in cos
tume reigns here. Many articles of
wearing apparel, notably those gayly
embroidered vests both ot men and wo
men, were exiiosed for sale in the
square behind the cathedral. Of sabots
there was a goodly display; also of
thoe comfortable and even elegant
white flannel hoods worn by the wo
men iu bad weather. The younger
women wore the prettiest semi-Eliza-fc-tlian
frills, so arranged as to be very
high and lull at the back, and display
ing the front of the throat. Quiinper
is noted for its pottery, and a gayer
display cannot be imagined than the
piles of plates and dishes, all painted
by hand, with naive designs of birds
aud .flowers in bright colors. These
are sold at a penny, or two pence- a
piece, yet a skillful artist may gain five
francs a day by this rustic art. When a
shower of rain came on, red blue, and
green umbrellas were spread, the wo
men put on cloaks and hoods, the men
coats of sheep or goat sl.in, and busi
ness went on as usual. Fraser's lliya-

Coat of PiODrcnox. Farmers are
generally beginning to realise that this
their success or failure most depends.
Until quite recently the Imoortance of
this subject has been comparatively
overlooked, and there is even now
scarcely one farmer In fifty who can
teti witn any accuracy, or eertaintv
what his cereals when harvested have
cost per bushel, or what his poultry,
ueei, mutton ana pork have cost per
pound. For this slovenly mode of hus
bandry there Is neither necessitr nor
excuse, and there is probably no other
legitimate business wherein such indif
ference to the main question would be
considered possible. -
It is very certain that farmers will
hereafter find it necessary to make
point of ascertaining the actual cost per
ousnei oi tneir wheat and corn. W den-
ever they do this they will be surprised
to nna tnat in the very act of doing it
they are already reducing the cost.
One reason why these products have
hitherto cost too much is because no
body seems to know how they do cost,
Examination sheds light, and light dis
pels ignorance. Then let the discus
sion of this subject go forward. It
evident that farmers have struck the
key note that is to inaugurate a new era
in their calling. After a careful study
oi tne sunjeet lor several years, and
the result of some experience and ob
servation, we are confident there is
point in the cost of . production lower
than any yet reached in this country.
and which lies practically within the
reach of a major it v of farmer. It
would be easy to show that the present
average cost of production for i: the
whole country might be reduced in the
present state at least ten per cent.
The Anrleata an Beauty.
Socrates called lieanty a brief tyran
ny. 1'lato caliod it a privileire of na
ture. Thcophrastus. a silent cheat,
and Aristotle attirmed that it was bet
ter than all the letters of recommenda
tion in the world. Since the time of
Esther beauty has had its do tent sway
and charm aud value. llean Swift
proposes to tax female charms, leaving
each woman to place a valuation on
her own attractions. Lord Bacon said
that the best part of beauty is never
painted or expressed in a pictnre ; wun
ns the standard of beauty differs toto
ealo from the ideal of other countries
and races. The Chinese admire black
teeth and painted eyelids. On the
shores of the Mediterranean ereat cor
pulency is preferred. "Hair like
wheat," the "hoiiey-colored hair" of
Homer is the most affected of late
among us. "Brown in shadow, gold in
sun," is a beautiful shade, bat Eliza
beth's bright red hair, "capellid' or,"
as he railed it, was inspiration to sy
cophant pens in her time- and even
lovely Mary of Scots sacrificed her
Ix-autiful dark locks to the"red fronts."
Cleopatra, Lady Macbeth, and the
much maligned, beautiful and noble
Lueretia iiorgia had hair light and
8-oWlen. Leieu Hunt, who said many
wise things concerning female beauty,
dresn, etc., and who regarded the lips
as expressing character as fully as the
eyes, declared that beauty was too of
ten sacrilieed to fashion. "The spirit
of fashion is not lteautiful, but wilful ;
not graceful, but fantastic : not supe
rior, but vulear." Jeremy Taylor
called woman "the precious porcelain
of human clay." Aytoun says "a pret
ty woman's work in the world, making
life summer by a look which tells of a
large heart aud all the gentleness of
humanity." A smile, which speaks of
heavens's compatisioiiateness, is, after

Montagu, "whoseextraordinary charms

After the crop of rye is harvested the

prefer warm water to cold, and there-

water. Mr. Hawley referred to the
ability of cows to sift out bad matter
from their food, so that the - same food

Electricity from Dipping Metal tn
Fluid. t two similar pieces of metal
are simultaneously immersed in a nuid
they rive no electric current: bnt
dipped successively, an electric current
is observed, as baa been long known.
In fact, the electro-motive force, at
tne separating surface of the metal and
the fluid, varies according te the time
that they have been in contact with
each other. This variation of the electro-motive
force is, in many cases,
purely a secondary phenomenon, in
that by chemical means a foreign sab
stance is formed between the metal
and the fluid, which greatly changes
the separating surface and gives rise to
a chemical polarization. Electric cor
rents are also, in these cases, dne to
tbe accidental formation of foreign
substances, and to the exposure of the
metal to the atmosphere, or to contact
witn tne fingers, nat even when fo
reign substances and chemieal innu
ences are excluded in the most perfect
manner possible, as, lor example when
platinum or gold is dipped in water.
movements of tbe needle are still via
ible ; and it has been suspected that
the air which is retained in contact
with the surface of the metal, or per-
haps the method that has been em
ployed to cleanse the platinum or gold
mar have had an important influence
in bringing about an electric current.
(Quincke has recently subjected this
phenomenon to careful investigation
and has observed that tbe strength of
the electric current increases with the
increasing resistance of the column of
fluid between the electrodes; that it
increases with the decreasing strength
ot tbe concentration of the salt solu
tion that may be employed ; that it has
no relation to tbe capillary' constants
of tbe fluids employed, and that it on
ginates probably in the change in the
molecular condition of those portions
ot the fluids which are in the neighbor
hood of the metafile surfaces. '

Hie Lighting of London. Tbe streets
of London have an aggregate length
of 3,500 miles, requiring about 6,000
miles of gas mams, and upwards of
34,000 public lamps, which consume
something like i.uuu.irw.uuu en Die teet
of gas a year, or abont 3,000,000 a day.
The gas supply of the entire metropolis
is about I4.uoo.ooo cubic feet a year, or
38,500,000 cubic feet a day, requiring
for its production the coking of 1.500,-
000 tons of Newcastle coal. Tbe cost
of the coal is reported to be $3,750,000.
Ihe value ot the res i anal products.
such as coke, breeze, tar, and ammonia
liquor is, as much as "3,:jOO,ooo. Ihe
gas rental or the city is i.,uw,iju, ot
which $1,200,000 goes tor street lamps.
To detect fusel oil in whisky, the
readiest process is to shake one or two
fluid ounces of the liquor with an equal
volume of pure ether, and about one
fourth of its volume of water. The
supernatant liquid being decanted,
will, on being evaporated at the ordi
nary temperature, leave behind the fu
sel oil present in the whisky, together
with some of the flavoring ingredients
that may have been introduced arti
ficially. , ... . ., .
Xck Mode of Hardening Sandstone.
In Saxony, sandstone is soaked in a so
lution of alkaline silicates and of alu
mina. The liauid penetrates some in
ches into the stone, and renders the
surface so hard that it resembles mar
ble and will bear polishing. On being
heated to a high degree, the surface
vitrifies, and it may be colored at pleasure.

Waxtep Proop. An English gentle

a genuine cockney when they nually
approached a meadow in which was
standing a glorious crop of hay. "The
cockney gazed at it wonderingly; It

"That, why hay to be sure," was the
reply. "Hayl" exclaimed he, "cqnie,
that's cutting it a little too thick. If
that's hay just show me the hay-corns
come now."

duced the yonug lady to furnish him
with a little legal tender. Then she
asked him what the awful thing was
from which her liberality had saved
him. He replied: "Eroui huutiugup
