THS MEMORIES OF THE HEART. We may shred the moss-veil from tha rote. The bloeaom from the spray ; The bloom that pearls the luscious grape A tooch will brush away ; The Tine may loosen from the tree Which onoe it clung to fast ; Bat the heart will keep its memories Till life itself be past. The gold most die from the sunset slues. The purple from fair hills ; The foam flowers fade from opal wares ; Drought hash the babbling hills ; The earth grows cold and passionless 'Neath Winter's bitter blast ; Bat the heart will keep its memories Till life itself be past. The flash will fade from cheek and brow. The sweet smile wane and die ; The freshness lesre the coral hps. Tears dim the brightest eye: Youth, beauty, hope and happiness. And lore may die at last ; Bnt the heart will keep its memories Till life itself be part. The Poetry ar the Telegraph Wire. Mr. W. Hep worth Dixon, the well known lecturer and orator, Raid at a re cent dinner in London : "Looking at a telegraph wire in the 1-ondon streets, trailing by lamp posts, crawling near gutters, tou reject the poetry that pal pitates in that wire ! The familiar is rarely picturesque, -No Venetian artist thinks a gondola picturesque. Xo Eng lish artist thinks a cab picturesque, but Kngllsh artists flock to the lagoon in or der to paint gondolas, ana a iamous Venetian artist has recently been in London for the purpose of painting cabs. Set the wire in a strange scene, and we catch the picture at a glance. In the Svrian desert vou come on the telegraph line connecting London with Calcutta by way of the Euphrates Val ley. You may find a liedouin sheikh standing near with a carbine in his hand, a dozen of his servants by bis side, his mare and camel in a group apart, and this bit of wire to him a Shei tau's messenger running through the wild man's country, and a black-bird perched on one of the telegraph poles, an emblem of that Sheitan which the untamed Arab sheikh conceives. The wire is a poetic and dramatic instru ment. It brings the very ends of the world together, fusing the sum of hu man emotions into one common senti ment. Can the dramatic poet in his highest reach of tragic passion do as much? Take the case of a great battle fought and won Sadowa.Sedan, or any other typical class. 1 take Sedan two armies clash, a victory is gained an em pire rises, and a second empire falls. Events occur in a few hours which change the flow and custom of the world. A crash, an onset, and a rout Xanoleon a prisoner, Wilhelm on his way to Versailles. The political and military centre of Europe is transferred from Pirns to Berlin. These things are done in a dozen hours, and in another dozen hours men are talking in their breathless haste and fever of these great events, not only in I'aris and Berlin, but in the mosques of Cairo, and in the streets of Archangel, iu the bazaars of Calcutta and on the quays of the Kio, by the falls of the Ottawa, in the mar ket places of Sail Francisco and in the shops at Sydney ; ithin a day the news is told, and at the same instant of time every human heart is quivering with the shock of these great events. This Is drama; all the corners of the earth are joined, kindled, fused. Just as in the theatre you, speak directly face to face with five or six hundred persons, so that every one laughs or weeps under a common impulse, laughing with the same wave of merriment, crving with the same pang of emotion ; so the poeti cal telegraph speaks to tlie whole world now becomes a theatre bringing joy and sorrow, exaltation and remorse to every kind and race of man." The First Europeans In Japan. Euroieans first set foot in Japan in 1542. Thev were three Tortuguese sailors, who. In the language of the Jesuit fathers, "breathed into the Japanese atmosphere the first breath of Christianity." .Missionaries soon lol lowed, notable among whom was Francis Xavier. and iu the course of half a century so numerous were the converts that one might fairly hope that in a few ye:frs the whole Empire would be Christianized. ButtheShogun Hidevoshi, who had learned of the Portuguese and Spanish conquests in India, grew suspicious of the new doc trines, and instituted a violent persecu tion of the Christians, which was con tinued by his successors. In 1G37 it was alleged that the native Christians had entered into a conspiracy with the Portuguese Government to overthrow the imperial throne. The whole sect was remorselessly crushed; all for eigners were expelled from the Empire, excepting the Iutch, who had aided the Shosun, and who were alloweu to Keep up a trading establishment on the little Island of lleshima. which they were not allowed to leave, and where they were, in effect, prisoners, only three vessels being allowed once a rear to come to them from Holland. Weary must have been the watch of these ex iled traders as they placed along the shore of their little prison, straining their eyes in gazing over the blue waters to catch the first glimpse of the white sails which were to bring them some tidings from the world without. From this time dates that system of jealous seclusion which for more than two centuries kept Japan a sealed book from the rest of the world. Yet during all this time the Empire enjoyed pro found tranquillity under the system of dual government, which had in effect been instituted m early as the twelfth century, but had been brought to per fection by Iyeyasu and his grand-son lyeraitsu. The introduction of Christi anity and its complete extermination from a thrilling episode, hut, after all, only an episode, leaving behind it no trace on the history of Japan and its in stitutions. Uarjtr,s Magazine. A vV.atlerial Ijad. Between the Indian and Pacific oceans south or a little southeast of Asia there lies a continent whose greatest length is about 2.4K) miles, with a breadth of 1,700 to 1,900 miles, having a coast line of nearly 8,000 miles, embracing an area of perhaps 3,000,000 square miles. In this until recently unexplord country nature appears to have done her work by laws and rules entirely at variance with her accustomed methods else where. The vegetable growth of this land is remarkable, and seems pro jected upon a gigantic scale. Palm trees grow to the height of seventy to one hundred feet, and the fern tret: a mere stalk uutil it reaches fifteen or twenty feet in height, suddenly sends out its leaves, four to five feet in length in every direction. A grass tree pro duces food for the cattle, and the inner part of the top of the tree, both raw and roasted is eaten by the natives. Lilies, tulips, and honeysuckles reach the proportions of trees, and most beau tiful fuchsias clamber to the bouse and tree tops. Cherries have stones out side the fruit, and there are trees which shed their bark instead of their leaves. And the zoology of this wonderful country is no less anomalous and in teresting. There are no ruminating animals, no monkeys, elephants, deer, bear, lions, tigers, wolves, or other beasts of prey ; the wild dog is the only carnivorous animal. Xo less than forty of its animals are marsupial with a pocket like the opossum's while very many of its species have no type elsewhere on the globe. So too of its birds, among which we find birds of paradise, oven birds, black swans, and many other equally curious creat ures. The death of Mr. J. O. Pettibone, of Simsbury, Ct, leaves the class of forty-two men graduated from Tale in 1805 without a single living represent tative. AGRICTLTTKAL. How TO Cbush Oats for Feed. In England oats are crashed by hand in machines, not longer than a root sheer. One large, smooth-faced wheel, with a race about three inches wide, revolves in close proximity to a smaller one, six inches in diameter, and about the same face as the large one, A hopper per mits the discbarge of oats between these two wheels, which, rolling together, crush each grain as flat as wafer. As they drop from the crusher, the plump oats are nearly circular; those less plump ellDtical. and the few false ker nels in the samples I examined, were flattened and broken, but showed no white flour and no definite form. In one ordinary sample, which weighed about forty-four pounds to the bushel, almost every oat waa flattened into a white, floury disk, nearly or quite as large as an old-fashioned silver three cent piece. Oats thus crushed may be fed as they are, and not one will pass the digestive organs unacted upon, as so often happens with whole oats; they may be mixed with cut or chaffed hay, with steamed fodder of aDy kind. They go decidedly further. Those who figure most closely, are the most positive in their approval of them from motives of economy solely, and uniformly assert their superiority to ground oats, even though they were to grind themselves. Oat crushers will certainly find their way to Kpularity among us, for with our liirht-weieht oats thev are more important than where the heavy oats of Europe can oe ootainea oais weigumg forty to forty-seven pounds to the bushel are not uncommon there, while here thirty-two pounds is a legal bushel bv weifht. and the measured bushel oftener falls below than it goea above that weight. Many city dealers sell ninetv round basrs for three bushels. From the American Agriculturist. Rte for Wi.nter Pasture. Experi ence proves that no kind of pasture pays as well as rye sown for early spring feeding. It comes in before any other herbage, and is a real treat to cows and other stock, after having been kept on dnr fodder and such like food all winter, as is too common with most farmers who fail to supply tnemseives with root crops. One who has for raanv years been in the habit of sow ing rye for the purpose lnaicaiea win the verv best results savs that, if sown in August or even in September, it will nroduce an abundant yield of deli cious herbage for all kinds of stock in enrlv nnn-. or in some quarters iai in the winter. It is especially valua ble for the calves and colts and lamos and milch cows, and indeed for all kinds of stock. All you have to do is to plow the ground and sow the seed ; they will pIucK it. ion neeu noi nr vest it for them. The ereen rye keep! the bowels open, the blood In good condition, and the animals growing with great rapidity. If the corn field is so that it can be. pastured, nothing will nav better than to sow it in rye. Put a man on a horse with a seed bag, and let him sow the rye. If a heavy rain soon falls, or moist weather soon follows, the rye will come up without running through the cultivator: but, in case of dry weather, the cultivator must be used to cover the seed. There is nothing in which farmers are more lacking than in supplying winter pasturage to keep their animals neauny anu in growing muuiuuu, u to save rivinir out so much other feed that has been saved at considerable ex- nense. Those raising hogs largely will find rye the very best of pasturage for winter. Cost of Feeding. A correspondent inquires what is the average cost per day for keeping cows in a good flow of milk, and how much less it ought to cost after they go dry; also how much food a fattening steer will consume in a week. The answer in both cases depends in some desrree on the capacity of the ani mal, and still more on the kinds of feed, and the right proportion in blend' ing them. In some cases within our knowledge the cost of feeding has not exceeded 6 to 8 cents per day for cows not in milk, and should not In any case exceed 9 or 10 cents until milking commences. When the cow is to be kept up to her best milking capacity the feed should be nearly doubled in amount, and the cost should range from 10 to 15 cents per dav. If it exceed this limit, it nroves that the mode of feeding is defective, or that the cow is an exceptional animal. In the case of a stall-fed ox it would require two and a half per cent, of the live weignt per uay in nay or its equiv alent to sustain the vital functions. Bevond this all the feed given would tro to increase the weieht. A steer of 1000 pounds would consume 175 pounds of hay per week to hold his condition, without gaining flesh. If 50 pounds of p-rain are fed in addition to this. ousrht to sain 8 or JO pounds in weight. The more additional feed it can be made to eat and digest, the more rapidly it will eaiu flesh, and the less will be the cost per pound for the beef made. Transplanting Trees. The people of the United States spend annually millions of dollars for trees, rully half of the trees planted annually are lost inside of two years, if a tree carefully dug, with plenty of fine. fibrous rwts, safely packed if they are to he shipped any distance and care fully shielded from the sun and wind after it is removed from the box or nackatre. the roots dipped in a sort of Daste made of salt and water and, the ground is not in a favorable condi tion for planting, "neeiea in" wun care, so that the soil comes in con tact, with the roots, take my word for it, not one tree in nrty win aie. otn- inz is so conducive to the growtn oi tree and protecting it from the drouth as mulching. Halt-rooted manure, leaves, sawdust, or something similar, may be used, and should be at least six inches deep. A tree thus planted will withstand almost any amount ot drouth How to Amr MANfRE.When coarse manure is applied to a crop, it decom poses very slowly and we fail to get the whole benefit of it for the first crop and may lose some of its value. But when it is made completely available before it is applied, the first crop is en abled to appropriate all that it wants and the surplus remains for the next crop. To get the greatest benefit from it, therefore, manure for shallow-rooted plants, such as wheat, oats, etc., soouiu be annlied near the surface and mixed with the soil by harrowing, just before the seed is sown, so that the young plant can reach its food when it will do it the most good. For deep rooted grass feeding plants, as the various roots, potatoes, etc.. the manure should be covered with a light furrow in the drill, and a little extra fine fertilizer be placed near the seed.

Frink state in the "Proceedings of the California Academy of Sciences," that, in order to ascertain, if possible, "the cause of the sound that is produced by the sand from Kauai, presented to the Academy at a former meeting, I investigated its structure under the microscope, and I think the facta I have ascertained fully explain the manner in which the sound is produced. As the grains of sand, although small, are quite opaque, it waa necessary to prepare them so that they should be sufficiently trans parent to render tneir structure vi sible. This was effected by fastening them to a glass slide and grinding them down until one rlat surface was ob tained. Thissurface was then attached to another slide ; and the original slide being removed, the sand was again ground down until suffoiently transpa rent. The grains were found to be chiefly composed of small portions of coral and apparently calcareous spon ges, and presented nnuer me micro scope a most interesting object. Thev wpm all more or less perforated with small boles, in some instances torming tubes, bat mostly terminating in blind cavities, which were frequently en larged in the interior ot tne grains, communicating with the surface by a small opening. A few faraminifrra were also met with, and two or three specimens ot what appeared to be a minute oivaive shell. Besides these elements, evi dently derived from living beings, the sand contained small black particles. which the microscope showed to oe farmer! ririni'i nallv of crystals of an- gite, nephelin, and magnetic oxide of r - 1 1 1 1 ' l matmv iron, luiueuueu in a wj These were undoubtedly volcanic sands. The structure of these grains. I think, explains the reason why sound is emitted when they are set in mo tion. The friction against each other causes vibration in ineir BuouiaucB, and consequently in tne sides or me cavities they contain ; and these vibra tions beiDg communicated to the air in tliA cacitiea. nnder the most favorable conditions for producing sound, the result is the loud noise which is caused when any large mass of sand is set in motion.

He concludes that ten millions of years is "the ut most that can be allowed from the phvsical point of view for all the chan ee that can have taken place on the earth's surface since vegetable life of the lowest known form was capable of existing there. Opposed to this is the view of the most eminent modern geo logists, that at least three hundred millions of years have passed away since terrestrial me oegan. A Dubhn chemist who has been in vestigating the subject claims to have discovered that salt is not the cause of scurvy, as has so long been the received opinion.

"Then I don't want any of the cold neck and breast ; bring me some other part of the chicken, and warm it up a little first," "What do you sell those fowls for?

"How cave you to fail in your ex amination ?" asked a tutor of one of his punils: "I thought I crammed you tho roughly." "Men, yon see," repneu tne student, "the trouble was that you crammed me so much I couldn't get it out." The superiority ot man to nature Is continually illustrated in literature and in life. Nature needs an immense quantity of ouills to made a goose with but man can make a goose oi nimseii in fire minutes with one quill.

One day some men, who bad been condemned to hard lalor on thennblic works Ior various crimes. were occupied in replacing one ot the streets in the city of Vienna. There passed that way a goou-iooh.- inir- weii-uresseu vouujr uiau , stunned near one of the convicts, em braced him affectionately, and went on. A State ofhcial had been at his win dow during this scene, and was much astonished at it. He had the young man brought to him, and said : .My friend, there is something very pecu liar in embracing a convict iu the xtreef. hat will people thluK OI you f The young man said nothing for a few moments, but soon recovering himself, he replied: "My lord, I only followed the dictates of duty and my heart for the convict is my father." Touched bv these words and admir ing the noble conduct of the young man, the omeial hastened to ten tne Kmneror what had happened. The sovereign recognized the oeaury oi his filial act. and gave the convict's son an important post. He wished at once to show that the pnnishment of crime should be individual, and not general, and that nothing should inter fere with the Divine precept, "Honor tby father and thy mother.' The Oiteen's Dicipline. An anecdote illustrating Victoria's admirable good sense and strict domestic principle. writes Grace Greenwood, came to me directly from one who witnessed the occurrence. One day the(neen was present in her carnage at a military review ; me princess royal, then rather a wiltul gin of about thirteen sitting on the front seat, seemed disposed to be rather fa miliar and couiiettisti wun some young officers of the escort. Her majesty gave several reDroving looks, without avail. At length, flirting her handkerchief over thesideof thecarriage.she dropped it too evidently not accidentally. In stantly two or three young heroes sprang from their saddles to return it to her band but the awful voice of majesty stayed them." 'Stop, gentlemen, exclaimed the queen, "leave it just where it lies, aow my daughter, get down irom iue car riage and pick up your handkerchief." There was no help for it. The royal coachman let down the steps for the little royal lady, who proceeded to litt from the dust the pretty piece of cam bric and lace. She blushed a good deal, though she tossed her head sau cily, and she was doubtless angry enough, bnt the mortifying lesson nipix-d in the bud her hrst impulse to ward coquetry. It was hard but it was wholesome. How many American mothers would be equal to such a piece of Spartan discipline f An old lady possessed of a large for tune, and noted for her penchant for the nse of figurative expressions, one day assembled her grandchildren, when tlie Illliow iiik con Cl ffli"u hjiir yiat .

After all. the cheapest and most val uable currency is good manners ; and we repeat an anecdote of Lord Pal merston for the benefit of hotel-clerks, car-conductors, bar-keepers, and Cen tennial gatemen, while admitting that they have many annoyances to endure during this hot weather. A railroad watchman saw Lord Palmerston smok ing his cigar at the end of a station. The venerable statesman was in deep thought, and did not know he was vio lating the rules, and when the watch man told him be was, he did not hear bim, upon which the watchman pulled the cigar out of the man's mouth and threw it upon the track. The train came dashing by directly afteiwards, and just as Palmerston was getting in, a brother workman remarked : 1 here goes the old chief of the cabinet !" The watchman, frightened to death. rushed up to London the next day, forced his way into the Premier s pre sence, and begged his pardon. So, sir," was the reply, "you would not have been so rude to me in obedience to vonr orders if I had been other than I am I You are an infernal snob, and if I treated you as yon deserved would have you removed P We repeat the moral, that politeness is the best and cheapest currency in the world, but to be of any value it must be uni versal.

It has given us books of fiction for the senti mentalist, learned books for the scholar and professional student, but fern bojks for the people. A bookwr the pepie must relate to a subject of universal interest. Such a subject is the phvsical man, and such a book "The People's Common Sense Medical Adviser," a copy or which has been recently laid on our- ta ble. The high professional attainments of its author Dr. K. V. Pierce, of Buf falo. X. Y.. and the advantages de rived by him from an extensive practice would alone insure tor ins work a cor dial reception. But these are not the merits for which it claims our attention. The Author is i rutin of the people. lie sympathizes with them in all their af flictions, efforts and attainments. He perceives their want a knov-lrd-je or themselves and believing that all truth should be made as universal as God's own sunlight, from his fund of learning and experience he has produced a work in which he gives them the benefits of his labors. In it he considers man in every phase of his existence, from the moment be emerges "from a rayless atom, too diminutive for the sight, until he gradually evolves to the maturity of those Conscious rovers, tne exervu-e oi w hich furnishes subjective evidence of our immortality." Proceeding upon the theory that every fact of mind has a phvsical antecedent, he has given an admirable treatise on Cerebral Physiol ogy, and shown the bearings of the fact thus established upon individual ami social welfare. The Author believes with Spencer, that "as vigorous health and its accompanying high spirits are larger elements of happiness than any other thmirs whatever, the teaching now to maintain them is a teaching that yields to no other whatever," and ac cordingly has introduced an extensive discussion of the methods by which we may preserve the integrity of the sys tem and ofttimes prevent the onet of disease. Domestic Remedies their pre paration, uses and effects form a prom inent reature or the work, iue Hy gienic treatment, or nursing of the sick, is an important suljft, and receives attention commensurate with its imor tance. Xearly all diseases "to which flesh Is heir" are described, their symp toms and causes explained, and jroier domestic treatment suggested. To re ciprocate the many favors bestowed upon him by a generous public, the author offers his book at a price (l.o0) little exceeding the cost of publication. Our readers can ubtain this practical and valuable work by addressing the author. 6 E.F.
