Tho point to settle is, which churn will mnke the most butter out of tho same quantity of cream, nnd when all is ready the churning is begun. Each churn brings out the butterabout the same time, and is taken out and carefully weighed, when to the astonishment of the farmer nnd tho “I told you so” of the ngent, the latter’s churn is found to have produced by over a pound the most butter. The farmer cheerfully gives a certificate to that effect, nuys a was granted, and ho erected a magnifi cent stone market. When ho beenmo master of enormous wealth, he built a theater, nnd named it after tho gover nor-general who had pardoned the scoundrel. It is stated in New York that Jay Gould is now having built a large num ber of barges sufficient to transport 500,- 000 bushels of grain daily down the Mis sissippi, and three largo elevators nt New Orleans. A prominent Wall street banker, who is conversant with tho en terprise, says that the object is mainly to extend the grain-carrying facilities of divert the trade tiie Mississippi, not to from the Atlantic seaboard. There are limes when tho grain await ing transportation at St. Ixmis for the Southwest is stowed there in such large quantities, owing to the lack of carrying facilities, that much loss is sustained by the owners owing to ttic expense for storage. Shippers often have to wait a long time for barges, and the desire of tho projector of tlio scheme is to furnisti all who may require them with sufficient vessels nt tho time they may be wanted. During the winter months, when the railroads arc blocked witli snow, the river will furnish an outlet to the ocean by the way of New Orleans. Tho barges will be made up in tows, and during the whole year, except at a very low stage of the water, this highway can be util ized. The scheme is not entirely a new onp, but merely an extension of one already in existence. Jnst Ills L’nie. He was a little old man, covered with | successive layers of dust, and full of pepper.

The revenue would have cxc eded tho ex ponses tho last fiscal year in tho neigh norhood of $100,000,000, had It not heen for the arrears of pensions’ act, which took $'27,000,000 out of the treasury Tho internal revenue receipts f.r the last year were $124 009,874 Not Gcnernlly Known.

Hats were first made by a Swiss at Paris, 1404 A. D. They are mentioned in history at the period when Charles VII. made his triumphal entry into Rouen, in 1449. He wore a hat lined with red velvet, and surmounted with a rich plume of feathers. It is from this reign that lints nnd enps are dated, which henceforth bee an to take place of the chnperoons nnd hoods that had been worn before in France. Previous to the year 1010 the men and women of England wore close-knit woolen enps. Tho custom of crowning the poets originated among the Greeks, and was adopted by the Iiomnns during the em pire. It was revived in the twelfth cen tury by the emperor of Germany, who pe invented the title of poet-laureate. The French had royal poets, but no. laure ates. The title existed in Spain, but little is known of those who bore it The tradition concerning the laureate in England is that Edward III., in 1367, emulating the crowning of Petrarch at Rome in 1341, granted theofficeto Chau cer witli a yearly pension. In 1630 the laureate was mnde a patent office. From that time there lina been a regular su cession of laureates. Until the close of tho eighteenth century the finest muslins in use were imported from India. The oarliest men tion of cotton among the classic nations of antiquity is by Herodotus,who speaks of it by the name of tree-wool, which name it still bears in German and sev eral other continental languages. Cot ton was not known in Egypt until about 500 yoars before Christ. Then it ap pears prohablc that it was imported, for all the cloths found enveloping the mummies of earlier ages have proved on examination to bo linen. Cotton cloths aro mentioned as having been imported into London in 1596, the knowledge of both the culture and manufacture hav ing probably boeu conveyed there by the Moors and other Mohammedan na tions. The former were the means of first bringing this manufacture into Europe. [Chicago Inter-Ocean.] PERILS OF TIIE DEEP. The world renowned swimmer, Capt.

According to the Ixmdon Telegraph, one of tho greatest boons to miners on the score of safety, is flic now miner’s lamp, in which the light of phosphor escence is substituted for Hint of posi tive ignition. In this apparatus the in terior of the screen is covered with a brightly luminous pnint, nnd there is, therefore, nothing in its construction or character thnt enn oy any means be- como a source of dancer. Such a con trivance, if answering tho capac ity claimed for it, must ho of leculi ir value, pecuniarily considered, n preventing the destruction of property explosion. But the great advantage such a lamp over those now in com mon use is its insuring against a peril from which the Davy lamp cannot protoct the workmen. If that lamp be carried against a current of air mixed with fire damp, the explosive gas penetrates through tho gauze and comes in actual contact with the llame. a catnstropbo being the natural resultof each contact; obviously, however, no risk of this sort could be involved in the use of a phos phorescent light by miners. jured by being fed on new hay and fresh oats has been made a subject of investi gation by a Freneli military commission, who have boon experimenting upon cav alry regiments.

On the whole, then, we are dme that stiU prevail in many places ratber economical in the matter ot pins against feeding new hay and oats to horses. On the other hand, it cannot be denied that horseB to which new hay is given are frequently exposed to colic. The danger is only present, then, when the horses receive no definite rations, but have put before them as much as they can eat. In this case they not only eat much more new hay, but they also eat much more eagerly and greedily, which can be so much more injurious, as experience proves that those very and where the pins go to is not so great a mystery as many suppose right.

Novelties In I’nper Making. One of the successful novelties into which straw paper is worked up is the cork and corrugated paper, made by a firm over in Brooklyn, near the navy yard. The cork and corrugated pa per consists ol straw paper or board, on which is placed granulated cork, the cork being fastened to the surface of t lie cardboard by a heavy sizing. Substi tute cork for sand as you look at sand paper, and you will have an idea of the appearance of cork paper. Tiie article is corrugated as desired. It is used largely as a packing for a great variety of bottled merchandise, being substi tuted for straw. The manufacturers buy their straw in from fifty to seventy-live ton lots. Another important use for strawboard has been developed in the past few years in the manufacture here of round paper boxes, tho peculiarity of which is that tho heads or covers are of one piece, in stead of consisting of a disc and a rim such as is seen, for instance, ia the ordi nary pill box cover. The covers and bottoms, being of tho same form, are mado by the same machine, and wiili rent rapidity and accuracy. The body THE MARKETS. NKW TOHK B*et Mod, Nuttvon, live wt..

On this topic the Christian Union says: “If we should indulge in prejudices we should likely sny that prejudiced minds will object to many changes that will be found, because some familiar phrases, like ‘he who now letteth wili let,’ will (we doubt not) lie rubbed out and some thing better inserted.

Building air castles is a harmless busi ness so long as you do not attempt to live in them. A weak man is worse than an insane one, for the latter may be cured or kept harmless. Mankind all suffer alike, but some know how to conceal their troubles bet ter than others. He who loves to read nnd know? how to reflect, has laid by a perpetual feast for his old age. Dr C.
