A ThrllUnc AdTentara with Shark.
In 1838 Capt. Blank the captain
does not wish hie narna mentioned
wa first mate of a whalesliip cruHng
out of Xew Bedford. The William
King was one of those old-fashioned
tub peculiar to the last centurr, sail
ing equally well either way, bow or
stem. Off Telegraph Hill, near San
Francisco, " a school of whale was
raised, led hy an immense bull, and
steering in a northerlydirection. Two
boats were at once lowered, but they
had scarcely touched the water when
the school parted, one runniug north,
the other south. Captain Blank's boat
followed one band, while Jim Watson,
the mate followed the other. The cap
tain's boat had a crew of magnificent
oarsmen ; they laid to their work with
a will, and after an hour's pull came
w ithin range of the bull. Capt. Blank
got an iron into him in short order, the
lih sounded and went down at a speed
which almost equaled that of the late
'1 ginning express"train. The line ran
out with a deafening hum ; the logger
bead smoked, and the boat laid her bows
deep into the water.
Suddenly the strain ceased. The
w hale was coming up, and every eye
conned the seas for a glimpse of the
monster. He came up like a rocket,
struck the boat on the keel amidship
with his nose, and hurled it thirty feet
in the air. As it descended.it capsized,
and fell bottom uppermost. The men
immediately swam lor it, and, with the
exception of the captain, reached it,
w here they squatted, holding on the
keel and presenting the apiearauce of
a lot of penguins nestling on a chunk
of kelp. The captain swam also up but
finding the keel crowded, resolved not
to risk an upsetting by venturing upon
it. So he put an oar under each arm,
and, treading water, kept near the boat,
cheering the crew, who, as was natural
to men in their situation, were nervous
and down-hearted. They floated this
way some minutes, and were gradually
getting over the first shock, w hen the
stroke oarsman, a gigantic negro, called
out, "Look dar, a shark I" .Nothing so
horrifies a sailor as a ravenous fish in
hours of peril. The crew looked and
saw a huge bottle-nosed shark floating
not more thau a fathom below the sur
face. The captain saw the monster al
so, and felt his chances for escape
dwindle to a cipher; nevertheless he
did not lose courage, and instead of
hastening the event which seemed be
yond prevention, resolved to escaiie.it
if possible. He knew that a shark
would never bite at an unsteady bait.
The nose of the creature is in its way ;
it must turn on its side and snap, and
then only when the object is stationa
ry. It may be so for a second only,
but that is enough ; the shark darts
like lightning, and in a moment seizes
his prey. The captain knew this, and
his only salvation doj ended on his
keeping constantly in motion. The
least pause would le fatal, so with two
oars under his arms he kept afloat,
moving about incessantly, his eyes fixed
on the dark monster beneath him,
which followed wherever he moved.
Such a situation would be apt to affect
the senses terribly, yet the captain says
he was never calmer, never less trou
bled, and never less afraid of death.
His mind, however, was unusually ac
tive; every circumstance of his life
came before him w ith the clearness of
noonday. The scenes of his youth in
particular passed before him in vivid
coloring. He saw the old farm house
in which he was born the hills, woods
and meadows surrounding it; the dis
tant village, the church spire, the flocks
on the plains, the winding river, the
cows browsing in the fields; he heard
the clatter of the mill, the songs of the
mowers, the birds singing in the groves
and the guil echoing among the hills.
He heard, too, the voice of one dearer
to him than all oil earth, the voice of
one but this all took place w hile a ra
pacious monster was floating within a
few feet of him, waiting only for a mo
ment's pause in his movements to rend
him to pieces'
The second boat, having now rescued
the wrecked men, approached the cap
tain, who ordered its crew to shoot by
him at full speed, and as it passed him
he would grasp it and spring in, the
critical moment being when lie would
lose motion, and the shark would be
likely to seize him. However, that
risk must be taken. The mate faithfully
carried out his directions. The men
strained every sinew. They were
whaleman, and as such topgallant oars
men, and the speed at which they sent
that boat diving through the water,
would have shamed the flight of the
swiftest sea bird. The boat itself was
scarcely seen, buried in a double wall
of foaming spray, the oars bending like
reeds and the gunwales quivering at
each stroke. Jt took a sieauy nerve,
and eagle glance and a lightning grasp
to secure the flying craft; but the cap
tain had these, as it passed, seized the
starboa:d gunwale, and was thrown
like a shot into the boat. At the same
instant the shark's head rose sbove the
water, and its jaws snapped with a
sound audible for a considerable dis
tance. The captain as he himself re
marked, escaied"only by a scratch,"
the moment he was stationary the
shark snapped at him, the velocity of
his subseqent motion only saving him
from a hideous death.
Secret Chiasae Tribunal.
The Chinese in California hare their
own judicial tribunals before which
they try and punish offenders in all the
grades of crime in the calendar, and
some which are not. They have secret
organizations known as '-floeys," the
object of which is to protect their own
countrymen from our laws, and to en
force laws of their own making. Their
tribunals are held in secret, and they
administer 6uch punishment as tbey see
fit. The penalty of death is enforced
very often for the most trival offenses,
as, for instance, neglecting to pay a
debt. If the culprit is not in custody
when the onence witn wnlch lie is
charged is investigated and he is de
clared to be guilty, then rewards for
his assassination are offered, written,
of course, in Chinese characters, and
publicly posted. It is with great diffi
culty that Chinese criminals are con
victed in our Courts. Officers are bribed
to release them from custody, and
Chinamen witnesses In Court will com
mit perjury to get them clear, in order
that they may be tried before their own
tribunals. A Chinaman stands in utter
fear of telling the truth In our Courts
if It should tend to convict, for he
knows that the vengeance of his coun
trymen Is such that he is sure to lose
his life if he does not aid in defeating
the adminstration of justice before our
tribunals. At the same time the Chi
nese will use our laws before their own
tribunals to persecute innocent men, In
addition to enforcing their own. J

ferrrd to "Webster."
Volumes might be ritten respecting
the special features of these two diction
aries, but in this article it is proposed to
briefly present only a few salient points
which,are worthy of consideration in
connection with an examination of the
two works.
Probably there Is no better course
for arriving at a correct estimate of the
value of anything than a reference to
the opinions of those w ho have made a
study of the question to be determined,
and whose acknowledged abilities war
rant this confidence. Applying this
test to the dictionaries, the result is un
questionably in favor of Worcester.
Referring to such endorsements, we
find that
AMONG EDtCaTORS
the position of Worcksikr is well de
fined by tiie opinions of the late Hon.
Horace Maun, who wrote :
"For many years. In all my writing,
speaking, and teaching, 1 have en
deavored to conform to tiie orthography
and pronunciation as contained in
Worcester's Dictionaries. 1 suppose
them to represent the highest standard
recognized by the best writers and
speakers in England aud in this coun
try." And of rrof. Xoah Torter, P. D.,
President of Yale College, who states :
"The best works of the kind have
been freely consulted, and among them
the well-known dictionary of Lr. Jo
seph E.Worcester.w b ich is so honorable
to the industry of the author and the
K-hoIarship of the country."
Besides, its recognition a the stand
ard by a number oi the leading uuiver
jities'aud colleges, ajid its adoption by
the Board of E.lucauon of many of the
States, and numerous cities ad towns,
re conclusive evidence of its merits
from an educational oint of view.
The .Vet York Evening Font (March !,
IS") pertinently observes:
"It follows Irom this with unerring
iccuracy that Worcester's Dictionary,
Being preferred over all others by
scholars and men of letters, should be
jsed by the youth of the country and
idopted in the common schools."
To define the position of such a work
AMONG SC1KXTMS
it is impossible to reach liint r authori
ties than Prof. Joseph Henry, L. I.. I'.,
jf the Smithsonian Institute, at Wash
ington, and the late Prof. Louis Agas
siz, L. L. D. Prof. Henry wrote:
"At the commencement of ihe opera
tions oi this Institution, I referred the
question as to the dictionary the Smith
sonian should adopt as the standard for
spelling and definitions to a commission
of literary gentlemen, and on their re
commendation adopted that of Worces
ter, w hich has been continued as the
standard to the present time."
And from among Prof. Agassiz's nu
merous commendations we quote:
"I have I0112 considered VVoicester's
quarto dictionary superior to any other
work of its kind,"
AMONG MEN OF LETTERS
Worckster is avowedly preferred,
as the .Veie York Herald (April , 13, i),
states :
"The best English writers and the
most particular American writers use
Worcester as their authority."
Commendations now before us from
such distinguished writers and scholars
as Bryant, Longfellow. Whittier, Sum
ner, Holmes, Irving, Winthrop, Agas
siz, Marsh, Henry, Everett, Mann,
Qaincy, Felton, Hilliard, Bavard Tav-
. - . . ... , . L
lr; jMemroinger, ricpnens, ajijwcoiuu.
etc.. amply attest this lact.
urthermore, Worcester may be re
garded as
THE NATIONAL STANDARD,
inasmuch as it is the authority of the
Iiepartments at Washington. From the
Hon. A. R. SKifl'ord, the Librarian of
Congress, w ho has long made a study
of these matters, the publishers receiv
ed the following letter:
"Washington, Feb. 17, 1S73,
"Gentlemen : The report having
been made that Webster's English Lio
tionary is adopted as the Btandard by
national officers, to the exclusion of
Worcester's, I take occasion to say that
so far as the Library of Congress is con
cerned. Webster has never been follow
ed in orthography in printing its cata
logues, reports, or any other documents
On the contrary, wherever proofs from
the Congressional Printing Ofiice em
body the innovations upon English or
thography w hich Webster introduced,
they are invariably returned with cor
rections restoring the established spell
ing as represented bv Worcester and
the usage of all great English writers.
"ery respectfully,
'A. K. Spoftord,
"Librarian of Congress,
A point worthy of careful observation
is the fact that readers wiio have been
taught at school to spell according to
Webster, as soon as they arrive at an
age warranting the use of their own
discrimination, adopt the style pre
ferred by Worcester, and it is singu
larly the case that many parties (the
majority, from our observation), who
claim Webster as their authority, spell
the test words according to Worcester.
Would it not be best, therefore, that all
youth should be instructed in accord
ance vith what their matured judgment
and scholars opinions influence them
to accept in later years as being cor
rect and in
"conformity with ACCEPTED rSAGK,"
as it is expressed bv Mr. Whitcian
Reid, editor of the Xeu York Tribune,
in a letter, (August 15, Is..), from
which the following is quoted :
"After our recent strike we made the
change to Worcester as our authority
in sjieliing, chiefly to bring ourselves
in coiiloruiit V with the accepted usage.
as well as to gratify the desire of most
of our staff, including such gentlemen
as Mr. Bayard lavlor, Mr. George
Smalley and Mr. John R. C. Hassard."
Besides, the orthography of Worces
ter is used In a large majority ot the
standard and popular works that are
daily read, as well as in the leading pe
riodicals and papers of the day.
It is a well-known fact that Web
ster's Dictionary contained so many
eccentricities in the way of spelling
"capricious and baseless fluctuations
and variations,'" as the FhiUidelphia
Fret (Feb. 9, 1377) designates them
that it was found absolutely necessary
to repeatedlv revise the work, and each
time the editors introduced the style
preferred by Worcester in place of
many of the innovations of AVebster.
Regarding these changes the A'eie York
Independent (Oct. Is, 15. ) remarks:
' Worcester's Dictionary is generally
acknowledged to be the standard au
thority, esK"cii.lly in spelling and pro
nunciation, aud many puousiiers and
newspapers, like the Irihune, wheih for
a lice adopted Webster's as an author
ity, have gone back to Worcester's. In
these deiartmeiits the editors of the
last and only good edition of Webster
have confessed the superiority of Wor
cester by giving up many of the pecu
liarities of the previous editions. They
have simply Worcesterized their dic
tionary, thereby greatly improving it.
Either dictionary is good enough in its
detiiuitions, and where they differ in
orthography and orthoepy most will
prefer Worcester, and here is the chief
use of a dictionary."
Webster's Dictionary still contains
many of its eccentric spellings, giving
the reader in some cases the option of
oilier lorms, but a dictionary should
not be edited on the principle of allow
ing the consulter to "make his choice."
Dr. Worcester, in his younger days,
waR engaged with others in the revision
of Webster's Dictionary, and in Wor
cester's Quarto Dictionary, we have
the result of this experience, coupled
with the fruits of later investigations
and maturer judgment, and it may be
considered
the crowning labor
of a scholar who devoted a third of a
century to philological studies. For
year the preseut publishers of Worces
ter's Dictionary were associated with
the publication of Webster's Diction
ary, and few have had a better oppor
tunity of learning their weak and
strong points. It is hardly probable,
therefore, with this experience, that,
unless they were satisfied with the su
periority of the principals of Worces
ter, they would hav.recently invested
what may be termed "a fortune" in the
purchase or this great property. Had
the same amount of money and energy
been employed in advertisingand push
ing i orcestkk as lias been expended
for that purpose on Webster, the for
mer work would stand with people
generally where it now does, ou its
merits alone, with the scholars and
cultivated readers of America and Eng
land, far in advance of all other.
After all, the preference for Worces
ter, which is now gaining ground so
rapidly, is probably due to the reason
so tersely summed up by England's
greatest literary authority, the London
Athenium, which concludes an unpre
judiced and elaborate review of the two
dictionaries, as follows:
"The volumes before ns show a vast
amount of diligence; but with Webster
it is diligence in combination with fan
ciful ness; with Worcester, in combina
tion with good sense and judgment.
Worcester's Is the soberer and safer
book, and may be pronounced
THE BEST EXISTING ENGLISH LEXICOX."
AGRICULTURE.
How Prize Bctter is Made, The
dairy consists of three hundred cows,
mostly of native stock. The average
distance of milk brought not to exceed
two miles; received once a day, at a
temperature of from sixty to sixty-five
degrees. The principal feed is blue
grass, red top aud timothy. In the fall,
quantities of green sowed corn are fed
at night. The milk is set in uncovered
vats, with four inches of water space on
sides and bottom, through which spring
water constantly flows to hold the tem
perature of the milk at sixty degrees.
The milk stood forty-eight hours, kept
sweet and made a good quality of skim
cheese. The cream was kept forty-eight
hours, when it was slightly sour;
churned in a revolving dash churn, and
required about one hour's churning,
and the butter gathered in lumps the
size of peas. The buttermilk wa-t drawn
off, and cold water poured in to rinse
thoroughly. The butter was then taken
out and salted, three fourths cf an ounce
to the pound, the salt being worked in
so thoroughly as to require very little
working the second time. The butter
worker used is the Inclined table with
lever.
Ir all the wagon scales that the Fair
banks Scale Company have built, were
placed in one continuous line the result
would be a plank road from Boston to
Philadelphia. This fact carries con
siderable tceight with it.
now to Plow. In his address on
"Plowing" before the State Board of
Agriculture ot Connecticut, Prolessor
Stockbridge sai l : '1 here are two kinds
of soil on every man's farm the agri
cultural soil and the subsoil. The
agricultural soil may be two inches
deep, or it may be nine, but It is not
twenty feet. It is not deeper than the
air can penetrate. If the agricultural
soil is too shallow, it may be gradually
deepened by lifting an iuch of the sub
soil at each plowing, bringing it up to
the air, and enriching it with manure.
Our agricultural society committees, by
their premiums for smooth, shiny, flat
furrows, have done the community
great harm. Such plowing as oftenest
takes the premium, is the very poorest
kind of plowing. The soil is best plowed
when it is most thoroughly crushed,
twisted and broken, and the sod well
covered. On some kinds of land I would
have the furrows lapped an inch, as the
Canada farmers plow. Let the air and
water have a chance to circulate under
neath the surface. Light lands, how
ever, should have a flat furrow ; we
wish to make such lands more compact.
Dimixish Your Fecixg. We com
mend to farmers the suggestion whether
in place of buying material f-r a new
fence, it would not be better to remove
a fence that is doing no good. Perhaps
you have none ; t-erliaps each one of
your interior fences is needed. If not
needed, it Is doing you harm. It is pro
tecting weeds, it is perhaps giving home
to woodchucksand mice; it is occupying
land that might be growing grass. We
have in mind a farm where all interior
and roadside fences are removed, except
pasture fences. The grass fields do not
extend only so far as where the roadside
fence ordinarily is, but to the wheel
tracks, thus giving the owners a strip
ot land more than twenty feet wide, and
making the roadway smooth and beau
tiful. The mowing machine leaves the
field at any point, the load of hay enters
upon the hard road at the most conve
nient point; and when the land is
plowed the furrow is carried near the
roadbed where the horses are turned.
The farm we have in mind does not lie
along a thcroughfire where the amount
of travel and trtquint passing of herds
of cattle make fences almost indispen
sable. It lies on a country road, as do
the majority of farms, where there is
little navel, and where feuces have
come to exist more through force of
habit than from any experience of their
necessity.
ro6iTiON ok Lawn Trees A very
common error in the disposition of lawn
or ornamental trees is, to dot over ir
regularly the whole surface of the
ground, so that when the trees become
large, there is a uniform mass of confu
sion. Although straight lines are to be
avoided, and the natural mode of plant
ing pursued, yet there must be an ob
ject in the position of the trees. The
grounu must be left open in the direc
tion of the finest objects in view.
whether they be near or distant; and
repulsive objects hid by dense ever
greens. W here little care can be taken
to keep the ground in order, a very few
large park tree will answer the pur
pose best. Oaks, black walnuts, elms,
maples, catalpas, chestnuts and tulip
trees and a very few of the larger ever
greens may be introduced, such as the
white pine, Norway fir, etc.
Should it be desired to drain a de
pression in a field where the subsoil Is
of a clayey or bard nan nature, thus
preventing the sinking of the water,
and the lay of the land is unfavorable
for ordinary draining, first dig a hole
as if for a well, through the impervious
stratum at the bottom, fill it up with re
fuse stone, remove the excavated earth
so as te allow a sort of basin and a free
access of water to the pit, and standing
water win never injure the grass crop
in mat part oi tne neiu. in this man
ner many comparatively useless pieces
of land may be utilized and made to
produce a good crop, besides there are
on nearly every farm immense lots of
stone, useless for building purposes,
tnat can be made to answer a good pur
pose in this way.
Ir the dirt is infested with insects
and the plants dying, remove the plant
from the pot, shake the dirt carefully
from the roots, get good, rich, fresh
earth and repot the plant.

Business Maxima.
Choose the kind of business yoiTun-
dcrstand. Capital Is positively required
in business, even if yon have real estate
outside and credit ever so good. One
kind of business is asintichasa man can
manage successfully. Investments on
the outside do not generally pay, espe
cially if vou require the money in Tour
business. Buy cautiously and just
what yoj want, and do not be persuaded
to purchase what you do not need; if
you do, you will soon want what you
can't buy. Insure your stock; Insure
your store; insure your dwelling, if
you have one. If the rate is higli it is
only because the risk is great, and of
course you should not take the risk
yourself. A business that will not pay
for insuring will not justify running.
Sell to good, responsible parties only.
Sell on a siecitied time, and when
your money is due, demand it; do not
let the account stand without note or
interest for an indefinite period. Sell
at a reasonable profit and never misrep
resent to effect a 6ale. Live within
your income, keep your business to
yourself, have patience, and you will
succeed. t. on pet it ion is the file or
trade, but in trying to run your com
petitor out of business, be careful vou
do not run yourself out.
ReeliiE In the Dark.
The stories about persons seeing In
the dark originates in the loose way in
which people often use words. Dark
ness.!. a vague term, and we often em
ploy it in conversation to imply a very
trifling amount of illumination. Thus
we say that cats, owls aud other ani
mals, see in the dark: the fact being
that their organs of sight are so con
structed as to allow of their discerning
fcelby illuminated objects, which to hu
man eyes would be invisible. But let
any nocturnal animal be absolutely de
prived of all sight w hatever, and its
faculty of vision is at once totally sus
pended. Obstructed circulation of the
bloodthrough the brain would have the
effect of rendering the organ less sus
ceptible of ordinary visual impressions
than it had been In its healthier sute ;
but it might at the same time increase
the patient's "subjected vision," and
cause him to see the phantoms of an ex
cited brain with even more vividness
than he would have seen external ob
jects under ordinary circumstances of
illumination. Strictly sneaking, we do
not see with our eyes; but we see with
our brain through our eyes. It is from
not being acquainted with the physic-
logical laws of vision that such constant
mistakes are made as to what we see by
means of an excited brain, independent
of external rays, and what the healthy
brain perceives by means of such rays
of light passing to it from surrounding
objects.
HUMOROUS.

traveling minister observed a rough
looking man lounging in front of an
Elko saloon recently, and approaching
him, asked : "My friend, do you know
where men go, eventually, who hang
about saloons and gambling houses on
the Lord's day ?" " Yer whlstlln', I do
pard. They spar for grub here till the
hash factories tumble on their racket,
an' then some on 'em strike out for
Tuscarory an' a few drift over to
Eureky. I'm fly on that programme,
pard bin over the routes myself." The
minister pinned on an agonizing smile
and sadly passed on.
A minister was riding through a
section of the state of South Carolina,
where custom forbade inn-keepers to
take pay from the clergy who stayed
with them. The minister In question
took supper without prayer, and ate
breakfast without prayer or grace, and
was about to take his departure when
mine host ' presented his bill. "Ah,
sir," said he, "1 am a clergyman !"
Ihat may be, responded Bom face,
but you came here, smoked like a
sinner, and ate and drank like a sinner,
and slept like a sinner; and now, sir,
you shah pay like a sinner."
'Do von know that expensively-
dressed lady there?' said a young man
to his friend at a ball the other night,
pointing as he spoke to an exceedingly
fashionable married belle. 'Yes; what
about her?' was the reply. 'That is
the woman that our friend Colonel
tried so bard to win for bis wifj but
be lost her; and now there is only one
other person who Is as miserable as the
Colonel is.' And who is that other
person?' 'The laly's husband,' was
the reply.

nuisance, continually barking and
biting, as is its nature to. "On," said
the Justice; "then you shot the dog in

An Important Function Ml mala tea.

SCIENTIFIC.
Industrial Application of Furnace Slag.
Among the various uses to which the
slag of blast furnaces Is now succesfully
applied, besides as a material for road
metal, mar be mentioned the employ
ment of slag sand for making concrete,
building blocks, mortar and cement.
The cement is composed of slag sand
with common lime and iron oxides, and
its strength is said to be but little In
ferior to that of Portland cement, while
its price Is not one-fourth. Slag sand,
with about ten per cent, ot common
slaked lime, makes a good mortar.
Concrete is either made from slag sand
or slag shingle, the latter being well
suited for covering roads and root paths,
Slag wool produced by the Impact of a
steam jet with a stream of molten slag.
Is used for covering steam boilers, steam
pipes, ice houses and cisterns, as a pro
tection against fire and as a filter of
chemicals, in all of which applications
its superior adaptedness, on the score of
economy and etllciency, is generally
admitted. Again paving blocks and
building bricks are made by pulverizing
the solid slag and then pressing the
bricks in a press a very remarkable
property of these bricks, as stated, being
that nails can be driven into them with
out causing their splitting, and the
bricks harden more and more with age.
Another production from this material
is an impure quality of glass the
molten slag being taken, In this process
in a ladle from the blast furnace and
poured into a Siemen'a furnace, where
soda and silica are added.
Singular Effect of Lightniug. Lei
Monde notes a curious instance of
where lightniug striking frequently at
the same point 'has gradually killed
vegetation over a considerable area In
the vicinity. The current after enter
ing the earth made a deep hole some
four Inches in diameter. For some
reason repeated strokes, during the last
five or six years, have fallen at this
point, and every year the circle ef dead
currant bushes around it has widened.
At present tbe affected area has a di
ameter of over 20 feet, and a large
cherry tree some twelve years old re
cently died. Fresh hardy bushes and
shrubs planted, within the boundary die
within two years. It would seem that
the lightning strokes have some in
fluence in thus destroying vegetation,
possibly by producing in the soil chemi
cal compounds injurious to plants.
Formula for Copying Ink. Professor
Giutl proposes the following : A con
centrated solution of log wood Is treated
first, with 1 per cent of alum, and then
with the same proportion of lime water
until a permanent precipitate is formed.
A few drops of a weak solution of
choride of calcium are adJed, until
bluish black color is obtained; then
hydrochloric acid is added drop by drop
until the liquid finis red. A little
gum and about 1 per cent of glycerine
are then added, and the ink Is ready for
use.
