Marl, howevqx, such. is a tine fertilizer, and Is used to predominates According as the lime, clay or sand the marl is classed as cal¬ marls careous, clayey or sandy. The Ontario are calcareous. As before noticed, marl is a lime fer tlllaer. Phosphoric acid when present adds to its value slightly. Its effects are either physical or chemical. Physi¬ cally,it seems to give lightness and loose¬ ness to soils, and thus renders them more workable. Chemically, it serves either as a direct food to the plant, as in the case of grasses, or indirectly by its action in rendering available the organic compounds in decaying vegetation—hu oui, for instance. 7 The nitrogen of swamp muck is un¬ available in its usual condition. Thor¬ oughly to diained the land and apply sixty On seventy-live bushels of marl per acre. light soils about twentv-fivo help’the bushels per acre, sufficient to decompo¬ sition of organic matter aud supply Um 0 to the crops. For grasses, ada about two bushels of suit per acre and apply us surface dressing. For clay lands, apply be by the wagon load; hardly too much can added. Use muck also, if available. Farmers having marl deposits will do well to test their valueon different lands. Small ptot^ in a couple of fields will bo suffiemnt. Those not having them should examine their swamps and marshy lands, and dig a few feet beneath black soils. Lime, in the form of marl or carbon¬ ate, should not be used with manures.

Six Sons Dead by Violence. Silas Case is a farmer living in Searcy uated County, in Ark., in a rough log cabin sit¬ tains, and a gulch surrounded in the Boston Moun¬ in extent, from by a clearing of many acres whieh he has earned a living for his wife and nine children—seven sons and two daugh¬ ters. All these children grew up, but only the one son is living and only be aud two daughters are beneath the old roof-tree which sheltered them in infancy. For more than half a century Case haa dwelt in this mountain retreat. The nearest neighbor is five miles distant. The nearest town is eighteen miles sway. One strikes the railway after a journey of 160 miles through a virtual wilderness, the wild and rugged country being interspersed here and there with small settlements. Case himself is a splendid specimen of manhood. He is sixty-seven years old, but straight as an arrow, brave as a lion and strong as a giant. He is a dead shot with the rifle, and his cabin is stored with the skins of bears and deer which have fallen before his unerring aim. In the war with Mexico he led a company, and in the war of the rebellion he began as side a private of the and ended as Captain on the Union. After hostilities ceased he returned to bis cabin, content to end life in isolation and solitude. A strange fatality has attended his children. Two of his boys were killed by guerillas during the war. In lSfcQ the revenue officers raided a “moonshine” distillery in the Boston Mountains. - The “moonsh ners,” though surprised, showed fight, and several were wounded, among them two of the Case boys. They succeeded in hiding in the underbush and thus escaped capture. One died from the effects of the wound five months after; the other died in Texas from the same cause a year later. In 1884, in a fight on Calf Creek, another of the boys was fatally stabbed, dying in a few days. Recently the father received word Colorado City, Texas, that the son who accompanied had his ill-fated brother to the State named been shot and killed in a quarrel with a man on a ranch sixty miles perished beyond the town. Thus six have surviving by violent means. The only son is living quietly with his fatb r. He has a violent temper, and only possible by shunning with his fellowman intercourse as much as to the fate which has can he hope escape overtaken his brothers.

John Jacob Astoi was determined to send a ship to China in spite of the em¬ bargo of 18U7-9. The astonishment whose of the ship owners of New York, vessels imagined were lying when idle in the docks, may be they read in the Commercial Advert see of August 13, 1808, this piece of shipping news : “Yesterday the ship 1 eaver, Captain Galloway, sailed for China.” Everybody knew that the ship Beaver waa owned by John Jacob Astor. The other merchants of the city were natu¬ rally indignant when they heard that Mr. Astor had been so highly favored. At last it was discovered that he had a •f “special United permission for from his the ship President the States Beaver, ; navigated by thirty seamen, ostensibly to carry home to Canton a great Chi¬ nese mandarin.” It was said that Astor had picked up a Chinaman in the park, dressed him to fit the man¬ darin story, secured the presidential per¬ mit, and despatched oad. his ship before the story got ab A rival merchant wrote to President Jefferson, informing him that the Chinese mandarin waa no mandarin at all, but only a com¬ mon Chinese dock loafer. The writer further suggested that, if the govern¬ ment had given the permit under a mis¬ understanding, the error should be cor¬ rected, and the honor of the adminis¬ tration vindicated by punishing’ the offender Mr. Astor’s friends called up¬ on him th t night and congratulated him upon the success of his enterprise, and they had a hearty laugh over the affair. He could well afford to laugh at the result of his brilliant coup, for the Beaver made so successful a voyage that she returned to New York the fol¬ lowing year with $2,000,000 more than she carried away. —Boston Commercial Bulletin. . _ He Hit It Twice.

' A Merited Rebuke. A . gentleman prominent ....... in legal circles in Boston was recently riding in a train, and in the seat before him was a young and gayly dressed damsel. The car was pretty full, and presently an elderly woman entered, ami, finding no seat va¬ cant but the one beside the young wo¬ man mentioned, sat down beside her. She was a decently dressed woman, but apparently of humble nation, and she carried several clumsy bundles, which were evidently a serious annoyance to her seatmate. The young woman made no effort to conceal iier vexation, but in the most conspicuous manner showed the passengers around her that she consider¬ ed it an impertinent intrusion for the new-comer to presume to sit down beside her. In a few moments the old woman, depositing her packages upon the scat, went across the discovered car to speak the to an ac¬ quaintance she pn oppo¬ site side of the aisle.
