Yankee auctioneer, who was selling a
f tiece of laud, “this is tho most delightful
and. It is tho easiest land to cultivate —
it is so light, so very light. Mr. l’arker
will corroborate my statement; he owns

—The following colloquy took place
between Counsellor Sealiugwnx and a
witness : “Do I understand you to say,
sir, that the prisoner is a thief?” “Yes,
sir; ’cause why, she confessed she was."
“And you also swear she worked for you
after this confession ?” “Yes, sir.” “Then
we are to understand ihat you employ
dishonest people to work for you, even

you?” “Of course; how else would 1 get

Penitent.—A country carpenter liaviug
neglected to make a gibbet, which was
ordered by the executioner, on the grouud
that he hud not been paid for the last he
erected, gave so much ofl'enco tho next
time the judge went the circuit he was
sent for. “Fellow,” said the judge, in a
Pull I'aahiwiis.
Harper's /taear foreshudown what some
of the fashions are likely to be Jim com
ing fall. It says : An early importation
of bonnets from the best Pari thin milli
ners indicates what the fashions of the
next season will he. The shapes are
largo, with high, soft, box-pleated crowns
and Haring brims turned up directly in
front, and are very compact looking,
without strings or streamers. A similar
shape i f smaller size is in vogue at pres
ent. and is found to be the most diewy.
and becoming of the many styles intro-
diiced iu the spring. The materials used
ate velvet, gros grain and sutiu. An es
pecial effort will bo made to restore satin
to favor. At least two fabrics uppour in
each bonnet, as satin or gros grain for
crown and for facing biims, or for piping
folds, with velvet for tho head or front
piece and as upright loops of trimming.
There is also much wide double-faced
ribbon tbiil is satin on tho side and gros
grain on the reverse; this is twined as a
scarf around the crown and fastened be
hind without a how, hut with two short,
straight, even ends raveled out to form
fringe hii inch deep. Sometimes it is
pleated and folded over the frame to
form the |gjtire crown.
The wilder colors will be of the darkest
possible shades, just off black. Those of
which Froueh milliners are most hopeful
mouse-color, blue steel, nut brown
that is almost black, uavy blue, violet,
olive, the dark claret shade, known ns
lie lie Hordennx t and invisible green.
Sometimes the shade of two or three ma
terials is seen in one bat ; in othors aro
extreme shades of oue color, the lightest
being associated with the darkest, as fiesli-
color with nut-brown. Tbo greatest num
ber of bonnets, however, have different
colors oddly blended, and it will be in
forming novel and beautiful eombina
lions of color, such as (be palest pearl
gros grain with cypress green velvet, or
amber satin with moose-colored velvet,
that milliners w ill exercise their taste uud
ingenuity. Imported black velvet bon
nets are lighted up with facings and pip
ings of roso blue or ponceuti satin. Thu
latter aro very handsome, hut all-hlnck
bonnets, with merely relief of ttowors
feathers, have been more popular horo in
past seasons.
Of tho summer dresses now being worn
the same journal says:
As the summer uttuins its greatest heat
something of its deep tints appears iu tho
costumes worn at Saratoga nud by the
sea-side. There are vivid ennuino roses,
the deep ponceau red of poppies and
fuchsias, and double scarlet geraniums
for ilortd garniture; while toilettes of
most delicate tints uuw have belts, bows,
and even “bracelets" of ribbou of dark
est ponceau, or of damson, blue, plum
color, or the still deeper hue called black-
blue. It may be only a bird's wing or its
breast plumage, a tuft of game feathers,
or perhaps a single crimson roso, but
somewhere in the toilette some touch of
hrilliunt color marks the change between
the pale monotone dresses of early spring
and those of tho now waning summer.
Among such gay toilettes is a “Casino”
costume, with black silk skirt uiul long
simple ovor dross of black Mexieuine,
trimmed with jabot and rutile of Valenci
ennes lace, beaded by clusters of scarlet
poppies and ripe white wheat tiod with
cordons of blue ribbou. Tbo Charlos I.
Leghorn fiat with wide dented brim has a
black velvet baud, with shells of Valen
ciennes lace holding poppies and wheat.
Auothor Froutihy dross for dinuur and af
ternoon is of drab ('linmbery gauze, satin
striped, w ith flotiiia d skirt and polonaise,
trimmed with long I • m e 1 I >ws of ear-
no ribbon down the front, loops aud
ouds on each shoulder, with half bretello
uml Bash bows behind, aud a bracelet of
the ribbou tied around each sleeve bc-
elbow and wrist; and fastened by a
coquettish bow. A third drjtss worn ut
tho seaside has a skirt of porveuclio silk,
trimmed with shirred flounces, worn with
basque; deep apron and ecru chnlli, edged
with yak lace uml insertion of the same
shade, nud ornamented with velvet rib
bon of tho color of tho skirt.

Protecting Hoiini-h from Fi.ikh
Freiich pharmaceutical chemist has dis
covered a way to protect burses from the
attacks of flics, according to a Loudon
medical paper. His invention consists iu
rubbing tho horaoa, especially on tho
parts most subject to attack, with a littlo
concent rated oil of laurel. 'There is not
the sligiitcst danger in its use, aud the
cost is said to bo very small. Another
rcpcilant suggested by the hmiiio person
is a solution of sixty grammes (one pound
and five ounces avoirdupois) of asafodida
iu two glasses of water uud ano of vine
gar. If horses bo well washed with this,
not a fly will settlo upon them; ns tho
strong odor of the asafudida drives the
flies away. This ding has no deleterious
qualities as an external application, and
may 1m used unhesitatingly by horsemen.
Effect on Meat.—So universal is tho
law that cruelty to the uuituul injures the
meat, that au English physician, l)r. Car
penter, in a recent letter to the Loudon
linns, assures us that the moats of ani
mals which have hoeu made fat by over
feeding will sometimes produce gastric
diseases iu those who eat them. Ju ling-
land it 1ms been found that the flesh of
harcH'ohused and worried by dogs, be
comes diseased, and soon put reties. Old
hunters tell us they do not like the meat
of deer which have been run and worried
by ‘logs, and that they somotiiuoH, when
hunting, shoot dogs to prevent tlioir wor
rying the deer, aud so spoiling the meut.
The same doctrine applies to gamo caught
and tortured iu steel traps.
Iff. is Distii.i.kd Water.—In addition
to the fact that ice is lighter tliuu water,
there is another curious thing about it
which many persons do not perhaps know
-namely its purity. A lump of ice melt-
id will become distilled water. Wafer iu
freezing turns out of it all that is not
water—suit, air, coloring matter, and all
iuipmities. Frozen sea water makes
fresh water ice. if you freeze a basin of
indigo water, it will make ice ns clear and
as white as that made of pure ruin water.
When the cold is very sudden, those for
eign matters have no time to escape,
either by rising or sinking, aud aro thus
entangled with the ice, but do uot make
any part of it.
Ci.kanino Gii.t Auhcleh.— Gilt metal
lic articles may bo cleaned by rubbing
them very goutly with a soft sponge or
brush dipped in a solution of oue half au
ounce of potash, or one ounce of soda,
or still better, of one-half un ounce of
bon x iu a pound of water, then rinsing
them in pure water and drying with a soft
linen rag. Their luster may bo improved
in special esses by wanning them slightly
and rubbing them very gently. Gilt
frames, etc., should only be washed with
pure water, rubbing very gently with a
soft sponge or brush.
MlXTt'RE OF Ri.ARTBR OF PARIS WITH
Marsh-Mallow Root.—Addition of two
to four per cent, of powdered umr*h-mal-
low root to plaster of paris affords n mass
that sets in about an hour uud becomes
so hard when dry that it may be sawed
ami turned, uml which is used for the
mmufactute of dominoes, dice, etc.
With eight per cent, of the root a still
harder mass is obtained. It may be rolled
into thin leaves, and be painted, varnished
or polished.
Friction Sealingavax.—At the Vienna
Exposition were shown small sticks of va
riously colored sealing-wax, tipped with
an imllauimahie compound, which, whou
ignited by friction, burns nud fuses the
wax, permitting it to be used very con
veniently, without wasting or dropping,
as is u-u illy the case. The quantity id
each stick is sufficient for ouo common or
J io:
o-
Aml though the full, ripe ears he sadly tew,
Thou wilt accept my sheaves.
—An indiscreet man is more hurtful
than an ill-natured one ; for as the latter
will only attack his enemies, and those
lie wishes ill to, the other injures indif
ferently both 11 muds aud foes.—Addison.
—The way to wealth is as plain ns the
way to market. It depends chiefly on
two words—industry and frugality ; that
is, waste neither time nor money, but
make the best use of both. Without in
dustry and frugality nothing will do, and
with them everything .—Franklin.
—If strict justice be not the rudder of
all our other virtues, the faster wo sail
the farther wo shall find ourselves from
“thathaveu whore we would ho.”—Colton.
—Man, if ho compare himself with nil
that he can see, is at the zenith of power;
tint if he compare himself with all that he
can conceive, ho is ut tho nader of weak
ness. — Volton,.
—There 1h nothing which must end to
he valued for its continuance. Jf hours,
days, months, and yoars pass away, it is
no matter what hour, what day, what
month, or what year we die. The ap
plause of a good actor is due to him at
whatever scene of the play ho makes his
exit. It is thus in the life of u man of
seuso ; a short life iH sufficient to muni-
fust himself a man of honor und virtue ;
when he ceases to bo such, be has lived
too long ; and while he is such, it is of uo
I consequence to him how long he shall he
so, provided ho is so to his life’s end.—
Steele.
—He who receives a good turn, should
never forget it; ho who does one, should
never remember it.—('harron.
— Rower exercised with violence has
seldom been of long duration, but tem
per und moderation generally produce
penminence iu all thiugs.—Seneca.
—He that knows a littlo of the world,
will admire it enough to full down uud
orshipit; but ho (list knows it most, will
most despise it. — Colton.
Moderation is u fear of falling into
envy, aud into the contempt which those
deservo who hocomo intoxicated with
their good fortuuo; it is a vain ostenta
tion of thostrougth of our mind ; in short,
the moderation of men in their highest
elevation is a desire of appearing greater
tlmn their fortuuo.—LaJtoehfoucauld.
—The morning itself, few people, in
habitants of cities, know anything about.
Among all our good people, uot ono in n
thousand sees tho suu rise once in a year.
'They know nothing of tho morning.
Their idea of it is that it is that part of
the day which comes along after a cup of
cott'ee and n beef-steak, or n pieco of
toast. With them, morning is uot a new
issuiug of light, a new bursting forth of
the suu, a new waking-up of all that has
life from u sort of temporary death, to
behold again the works of God, tho hoav-
ons and the earth ; it is only a part of the
domestic day, belonging to reading news
papers, answering notes, sendiug the
children to school, and giving orders for
diuuer. The first streak of light, tho
Host purpling of the oast, which tho lark
spriugs up to greet, and the deeper and
dooper coloring into orango und red, till
Ht length the “glorious suu iH soeu, re
gent of tho day." This they never
enjoy, for they never soo
never thought that Adam had much
the advantage of us from huviug soon tho
world whilo it was new. The manifesta
tions of tho pownr of God, like his mer
cies, are “new ovory morning" aud fre.vh
every moment. We see as line risings
of the sun as ever Adam saw; aud its ris
ings arc as much a miracle uow us they
were in his day, nud, I think, a good deal
more, hocause it is now a part of the mi
racle thut for thousands and thousands of
years he lins conic to his appointed timo
without the variations of a millionth part
of a second. Adum could not tell how
this might be. I know tbe morning—1
am acquainted with it, and l love it 1
love it fresh uud sweet as it is—a daily
uuw creation, breaking forth and calling
all that have life aud breath and being to
now adoration, now oujoyments, aud new
gratitude.— Webster.
—There aro three modes of boaring tho
ills of life ; by iudiffereuce, which is tho
most common ; l>y philosophy, which is
the most ostentatious; aud by religion,
which is tho most effectual.—Colton.

—Thirty thousand acres of pine land

•Bows raadily.
I make all tho sufferings easy.
Hut nothing can support a tnau whose
mind is wounded. — Culler.
—lie that has no resources of miud is
moro to bo pitied than he who is in want
of necessaries for tho body ; and to bo
obliged to beg our daily happiness from
others bespeaks a more lamentable pov
erty than (lint of huu who begs his daily
brood. — Colt on.
-Falsehood is never so successful ns
whou she baits her hook with truth, and
(hut no opinions so fatally mislead us as
those that nro not wholly wrong, os no
watches so ett’octually deceive tho wenror
as those that arc sometimes right.—Col
ton.
—Favor exalts a man above his equals,
but bis dismissal from that favor places
him below them. — LaHruyere.
—The only freedom worth possessing
is that which gives enlargement to a peo
ple’s energy, intellect, und virtuos. The
savage makes his boast of freodom. But
what is it worth? Free as he is, he con
tinues for sges in the same ignorance,
loads the same comfortless lifo, soes the
same unturned wilderness spread around
him. Ho is, indeed, free from what he
culls the yoke of civil institutions. But
other ami worse trains bind him. The
very privation of civil government is iu
effect a chain ; for by withholding pro
tection from property it virtually shackles
the arm of industry and forbids exertion
for the melioration of his lot. Progress,
tho growth of power, is the end and boon
of liberty ; aud without thiR, a peoplo
umy have the name, but want tho sub
stance aud spirit of freedom.—Channing.
—Those who have resources withiu
themselves, who can dare to live aloue,
want friends tho least, but at the HAtue
time best know how to prize them the
most. But no company is far preferable
to bad, because we are more apt to catch
tho vices of others than their virtues, ns
disease is far moro contagious than health.
— Colton.
—A gift—its kind, its value aud sp-
penrunce; the sileuce or the pomp that
attends it; tho style iu which it reaches
you. may decide tho dignity or vulgarity
of the giver. — Lavatcr.
—Grace Greeuwood is spending the
summer in her own little rural cottage at
Mauitou, Colorado. It is a little brown
oottage among the cotton-w'oods and wil
lows and young oaks and clematis vines
at the foot of Pike s Peak. She says “this
particular region of the Kocky Mountains
maintains the character which Fremont
gave it more than thirty years ago of be
iug tbe storehouse of thunder-storms.
We have a grand demonstration nearly
every afternoon. The old mountains
cannonade each other furiously—Pike's
Peak blaxes like Sinai, and the heavy
clouds roll down hia mighty granite ateepa
like black avalanches. Grander atom
and cloud effects than wa have hare U ia
