with which each number is filled, we are to have an all but irresistible attrac tion this year, in the publication of an original story from the pen of the Eng lish poetess, Miss Jean Ingelowe. Two or three chapters of this tale, called "Off the Shelligs" have already appear ed, and in their graphic simplicity and quiet suggestive power, they give promise of a narrative of quaint, homely but intense interest, t The report has gone abroad that “ Off the Shelligs" is in some measure autobiograpnical, which if true, must add% hundred fold to the charms of the work. “ Every Saturday" has ceased, alas! to be an Illustrated Journal! The engravings, and general “get up" of this paper, were so costly that Mess-s.

We should use them in pies, tarts, puddings, apple sauce, apple butter, or in some way, every day. They are more healthy than wheat and pork. LIST OF ENGAGEMENTS. STRENGTH. KILLED. WOUNDED. MISSING.

America was as little known as the country around the mysterious moun tains of the moon. It was not until 1767 that Boon left his home in North Carolina to become the first settler in Kentucky. The first pioneers of Ohio did not settle until twenty years after this time. A hundred years ago Cauada belonged to France and the pop ulation did not exceed a million and a half of people. A hundred yearn ago the great Fred eric, of Prussia was performing those gradn exploits which have made him im mortal in military annals, and with his little monarchy was sustaining a single handed contest with Russia, Austria and,France, the three great powers of Europe combined. Washington was a modest Virginian colonel, and the great events in the history of the two worlds, in which these great but dis similar men took leading parte, were then scarcely foreshadowed. A hundred years "ago the United States were the most loyal part of the British empire, and on the poltical horizon no rIKl 4 > AND STAIK OFFICERS AND CAPTAINS. HANK. NAME. ■peck indicated the struggle which within a score of years thereafter es tablished the great republic ol the world. A hundred years ago there were but four newspapers in America! steam engines had not been imagined, and the railroads and telegraphs had not entered into the remotest concep tion of men. When we come to look back at it through the vista ol history, we find that to the century just passed has been allotted more important events, in their bearing upon the hap piness of the world, than almost any other which has elaped since the crea tion. Winter Protection of Bees.— Farmers who keep only a few hives of bees, merely to obtain honey for home use, are not expected to give such par ticular attention to the business as those who are engaged in it largely, yet a certain amount of care is necessary to warrant a good return. Where the bees are wintered out of doors, protec tion from severe cold winds must be given, and may be afforded by setting posts on the North and Weßt sides, hoarding the same up closely and covering overhead. None but strong colonics should be selected for wintering, and the weaker ones “taken up,” or two united in one, which is better. To unite them, there are two simple processes; Smoke both thoroughly by burning cotton rags or rotten wood, and shake them ;ill together upon a sheet and put them into the hive of the strongest colony; ov invert the weaker of the two, set the other upon this and drive the first up by use ot smoke, blown in at the base. Two swarms thus united, will consume but little more honey than one alone, as more heat is generated and less food required. Not less than fifteen or twenty pounds of honey should be allowed to a winter colony; where there is less than this, feeding will very probably be necessary, and the hives should be watched closely to see that the supply is not exhausted, and the family starved to death. Simple Curb for Kheitmatism.— The Call furnishes the following as a cure for this painful disease: Boil a small potful of potatoes, and bathe the part affected with the water in which the potatoes were boiled, as hot as can be applied, immediately before going to bed. The pain will be removed, or, at least, alle viated, by the next morning. Some of ths most obstinate rheumatic pains have lately been cured by one application of this novel and simple remedy.
