When not in use keep them housed by all means. By letting farm ma- chinery stay inthe field. exposed to rain, dews, | wind and the hot sun, it receives more injury han from careful usage. — The American Cultivator suggests that one great reason why so much dilapidated wire fence is seen is because the wires are stretched too tightly. Cold contracts tron, making the wire | shorter in winter than when the fence was built at a milder temperature, and something has to give way. — Prof Budd Is of the opinion that cellars in which fruit is stored between picking time and the setting in of winter should be opened at night, instead of the daytime, as is usually done. covier, while the warmer air of the day time has its moisture precipitated by the cool temper- ature of the cellar. —A writerin the Prairie Farmer relates that a drain put down in 1853, of common fence- boards, is still in good condition, and that if he had to make short. deep drains, with plenty of fall and thorough compaet or yellow clay, he should certainly use a six-inch fence-board, be- |lieving it would answer every purpose of a three or four-inch drain tile. —Avcorrespondent of the Ohio Farmer ad- vises the placing of old tin cans on the fire until the solder melts and they can be pulled apart. Then take the large pleces of the can and wrap around the fruit trees it. is desired to protect trom mice, pressing the edge of the tin firmly into the ground. The mice will be discourag by thetins, and will turn in another direction. —In the American Farmer Mr. D. Carter, in giving an account of the growth of a tomato on apile of slaked shell lime, states that It was four feet long and abounded with tomatoes. He was surprised at its growth and fruitfulness | under the conditions, and considered it demon- strated that slaked shell lime was the fertilizer for that plant when heavily applied, It seeming to answer all purposes. — If you are going to set a new orchard this spring remember that it is an excellent way to Prepare a plan of the orchard, showing the posi- tion of each tree, its variety, etc. Ita tree dies It can be replaced by oneot the same sort. Some fruit raisers keep a book in which they register the age and variety of every tree in thelr orch- ard. together with any items in regard to its grafting, productiveness, treatment, etc., which are thought to bé desirable. — Mr. Charles Lauppe, Urbana, 0., keeps the i birds from his grapes with a scarecrow ‘‘cat.” This “enimai” is made of canton flannel, of the color of a Maltese cat, stuffed with curled hair. Hair is better than wool or cotton as it soon dries out after arain. A ‘‘cat” of this kind will effectually protect the grapes from the birds for twenty feet onall sides. Mr. Lauppe sets his “eats” upon the grape trellises, where they may besecure and in fuli sight of birds wishing to plander. —The first thing to be almed at in getting | together a herd for the dairy is to secure good | milkers—cows that can make a good record in both quantity and quality. For this purpose each animal should be tested separately, and disposed of if it does not reach a satisfactory | standard; once done thoroughly it wili do for | the lifetime of the herd. To neglect this work | is to imperil the enterprise. for several cows of a low standard are a constant drain on profits. | Itcosts as much to keep a poor cow as a good one. — The Floral Cabinet gives the following dl- rections fer managing plant cuttings: “If the slip is too young and full of fresh sap it will fade | away trom too much evaporation; if too old— | hard and woody—it will take a great while to | strike root.

There has been widespread grief among the newspaper men of New York over the tragical ending, a few days ago, of the life of John B. Wood, familiarly known as Doe Wood, the “Great American Condenser” of the Sun, by shock and exposure through falling into the ice-bound river at midnight. ‘The tragedy of his death brings to my mind a score of other tragedies of the sanctum that have cast a lurid light over the years of my ca- Teer upon the press of New York. I will tell of a few of the more notable of them without go- ing rar back in my memory. The first editor of the New York World, which was started as an orthodox religions paper, was Mr. Spaulding, a grave, taciturn man of large frame and powerful intellect. When the World fell into financial straits and threw re- lgion overboard, about 1863, Mr. Spaulding took a place upon the editorial staff of the Times, under Henry J. Raymond, whose first assistant I then was; and there he showed him- self to be the boldest master of political . invec- tive ever known on the American press. To recrult his health, he made a voyage to New Orleans. but on an excursion up the Missis- sippi his boat, met with ill luck, and he was cast on # desert. d tau« of land, where he was almost stayed“: 42° ‘The first I knew of his return to New York was at a very late hour of one night, when, being on duty in the edi- torial quarters of the Times, a ‘* whistle up the pipe” irom the publication office, and a mes- sage that Mr. Spaulding had muttered my name, hurried me down stairs. I found him prostrate on his back upon the stone flooring, evidently struck by paralysis, and entirely un- conscious. In a few moments he caught my voice, and began stammering out Latin words, disjointed quotations trom Virgil, Horace, and his other favorite authors, occasionally pressing his head with his hands, and breaking into a sort of wild laugh. It was atter midnight by the City Hall clock when J left his side, hastened overto the old New York hospital,then in Broadway, rang up the young doctor in charge, who agreed to take him in, returned to the Zimes with a stretcher, called down four compositors, who litted the prostrate man from the floor, and accompanied them back to the hospital, where I saw him Placed safely upon a cot under a doctor's charge. It was half an hour of the time for going to press when I got back to the editor's sanctum, and if the editorial columns of next day’s Times were short or otherwise fmperfect, the reason is now for the first time told. Though Mr. Spaulding was over fifty years old, he had been married but a tew months before, and in the morning I telegraphed to his young wife, then in one of the towns up the Hudson river, who appeared at the poeple in a very few hours. She tended him devotedly during the days in which he could not be removed from the rae and then had him taken to her father's country home, where he svon afterward bowed his head in death. In this tragical way ended the lite of the first editor of the New York World, a man of great soul and honest purpose. Even more tragical was the closing scene, in June, 1869, of the life of Henry J. Raymond him- self, the distinguished founder and editor of the New York Times. He had been at the Times office on the afternoon of the night in which he was found dead, and inquired for me, but I hap- ned to be engaged elsewhere in a work which fe haa put upon me, writing a criticism of Woolsey’s “Reform Against Nature,” then just published. Leaving word that he desired to see me as soon as possible, he left the office in his | usual cheery mood, took dinner at his house in 9th street, and then went to a political meeting. But little is known of his subsequent move- ments until after midnight of that day (June 18), when his wife, who was drawn down stairs by hearing anoise, found him lying dead at the door of hishouse. In the midst of a great career in the press and in polltics nis lite ended in a tragedy never yet cleared up. In the very early years of my manhood, Mr. Raymond had given me my first opportunity on the press by Inviting me to his paper, and during the ten’ years that pre- ceded. included, and followed by the great war for abolition (or from 1859 to 1869) when Iwas his daily associate, he proved himself to be the most amiable of men, as he was one of the most accomplished editors. But I set out to tell, with the fewest words, the tragedies of a score of New York editors of my acquaintance, In a single column, and already I find it nearly full. The tragedy of the death in a madhouse of Horace Greeley, the founder and editor of the New York Tri/uxe—who has not been shocked by the story of it? The tragedy of the death ef the venerable poet, William Cullen Bryant, editor of the Even- ing Post, who fell before my eyes under a sun- stroke in the Central Park five years ago, was told in this paper of December 30. How suddenly and unexpectedly, in the sum- mer of last year. death struck my associate, Win. , Bartlett, of the Sun, a man of great mind and great heart. The tragedy of the death last September of the jovial Hugh J. Hastings, the editor of the Commercial Advertiser ot this city, was caused through a shock which he got when his carriage came in collision with an express wagon. How suddenly and grievously, in December last, fell William 'T. Clarke, editor of the New York Star, the good and talented man, who had so often thought it his duty to assail me for the aeeus that I did under the highest sense of uty. he managing editor of the New York Herald during nearly the whole of the lite of the elder Bennett was Mr. Hudson, who came to a trag- ical end in the Massachusetts town of Concord | @ few years ago through being crushed by a railway train. i Time fails me to tell of the lesser lights— Chase, of the Herald, Ned Seymour and Mills, of the Times, Adams, of the Sun, and how many others. What a line of tragedies of the sanc- tum fs unrolled before my eyes!—tragedies which have shocked my spirit every year since first I stood, as a stripling, within the innermost circles of the daily press of New York. ‘The tragedy ot poor Doc Wood is the latest on the roll. ———__+e-_____. John Brown and the Queen. From the London Truth. A Tory contemporary relieves its asual sleepy dullness by an outburst of wrath, to which It has been excited by my account of the contents of the Queen’s new book, which account, by the way. will be found to be strictly accurate when the work appears, and it will probably be in the hands of the public at a much earlier date than had originally been intended by her majesty. My contemporary is particularly enraged be- cause I stated that the book ‘‘will be in reality a sort of tribute to the memory of John Brown,” which is described as “a covert sneer at the Queen” and “a pandering to republicanism.” There is notralt that I admire more in the Queen’s character than her regard for the bl hu dependants about her; if this be a dering to republicanism” my ‘Tory contemporary shonid blame her majesty, not me. My contemporary would have done better, however, to stop here, instead of going on to print such egregious batderhash as that J. B. was “specially recommended to the queen by the prince consort on his dying bed,” &c. It | is quite evident that the writer knows nothing Whatever about either John Brown or t! consort. ‘The Highlander” was simply an or- dinary upper servant when the prince died, who had risen from a very menial post through tact,f , aud intelligence, all ot which Brown in a very marked degree to the last day of his life, although, of course, he had his fall- ings, Itke everybody else. He was no more to the prince consort than fifty other persons in the same position; and the assertion | that his royal highuess recommended Brown ‘on his death-bed (or even mentioned his name) is a preposterous Invention. It isno exag- geration. moreover, to assert that, with all his good qualities, Prince Albert was quite incapable of conceiving a real regard for any servant whatever, with the one solitary exception of Lohiein, his valet, who had been with him since boyhood, and who is still in the queen’s service, and lives in an excellent house at Windsor. To Lohlein even Brown gave the pas to the last. Prince Albert, like most other Germans of “ex- alted rank,” looked with ineffable disdain on those beneath him; and it is not easy for anyone who had any knowledge of his royal highness to conceive him as being happy in any place where the rules of precedence were not etrictly observed. Heaven, itself, would scarcely be doomed to inhabit the same regions as his some- time domestics; and I apprehend that such per- | Sonages regard the aseurance “In my Father's house are many mansions” as a sort of guar- antee that no such grievous huddling together of patricians and piebeians is to be anticipated. ‘The silly twaddlings of my contemporary are not “tacts,” but the “fancies” ot an imagina- tion distempered by a servility grafted on in- tense ignorance. - In Madagascar, on the death of thelate queen, the people were’ forbidden for two months to wear hats, carry umbrellas, or plalt the hair, to say nothing of an interdict on building and weaving. “Ifa razor, after being exposed to the cold, be Placed under a strong fying glass, it is sald that the edge would seem like a saw.

Joseph Medill in the Chicago Tribune. “God forgive you!” Beryl McCloskey stands peering with wistfal eyes into the darkening gloom of the June twi- Nght that envelopes the tall, erect form of George W. Simpson as he" strides rapidly to- wards the gates of the’Brierton Villa, and as he fades altogether from her sight there are tears in the girl’s beautitul brown eyes—hot blinding tears that seem to sear her very soul—and her voice, that has so often thrilied with its richness the man who is now leaving her forever, falls upon the soft summer air with @ pititul cadence that Is almost a moan: It is the old, old story, told so many times, and In so many lands, of a woman's truthful- ness, @ man’s perfidy, and nothing left but a broken heart. a collection of geet, cay sere and a horrible, ghostly void in a life that woul cereriee be one of perfect rest and sweet con- nt. * 8 @ A year has passed. Standing in the same place where in the June that has gone forever she parted from the one man in ail the wide, wide world for whom her heart held love, Beryl McCloskey had commun- jon with Nature. There had been shadows all day, and in the west there were masses of cloudy, purple and blue-black, spreading away into a million of soft, scarlet cirri that drifted below a low wind from the southward, tender and yet rich in tone as any scattered shower of carnation leaves. Through that vast pomp of dusky splendor the sun still shone, and as its rays fell upon the girl’s lithe form she seemed a beautifui statue of gold and bronze. Across the valley than ran to the eastward of the villastretched that wonderous fire-glows and all the broad lands that lay beyond were trans- figured into one vast sheet of gold, on which the dim white villas and villages floated like frail white eails upon a summer sea. Suddenly there comes over Beryl'’s mind an instinctive fecling that there is some one near her, and turning quickly she finds George W. Simpson by her side. A wave of white passes over the cameo face, but inan instant it is gone, and she is as calm and regal as ever, “You have come back. I knew it would be 80." These are all the words she speaks. There! no hint of love in her tones, scarcely cordiality, and yet they effect this man strangely. He, who is of such perfect physique and whose mind has In the past been so- cynical regarding all that pertains to love, looks up to her wit! pleading eyes. “Yes,” he says, “I have returned. Can yon forgive me?” “I have nothing to forgive,” replies Beryl. “Then you do not love me any more—do not care for me?” The faint suggestion of a smile hovers for an instant around her lips, and then silence falls between them. The man speaks again: “Then there is no hope?” “None whatever.” He turns quickly to go, when suddenly there is a cry of horror, and George W. Simp- son lies dead in all his manly beauty onthe green sward. He has fallen over her foot. ee eng FOR GENTLEMEN. Fashion Change Made for the Ap- pronching Spring Season. From the New York Fashion Review. At present there is little, if any, change in the “swallow-tail” coat; abeut the same lengths prevail as last ‘season, and the lapels are neat and narrow. Knee breeches have been effect- ually disposed of for dress purposes, and so de- cidedly have they been ‘‘sat down on” by society that they will never again, in our time, raise their head. Walking suits have undergone very little change during the season, but there is a disposi- tion to slightly shorten them in the waist and skirt. The one button cutaway is increasing in avor tor young men’s wear, but is slightly mod- ifled in its general appearance to suit their re- quirements. The vest Is cut high, with a col- lar, and pantaloons are moderately tight fitting and tracing the form. When the coat and vest are made from black and blue diagonal, or cork- screw worsteds, the pantaloons are made from fancy cassimeres ot hair line, or smal! plaid or check patterns, but if made from any of the fashionable shades of gray, olive, etc., the entire suit is alike. Dress shirts, ete., are undergoing a change from plain linen bosoms to embroidered fronts, and it is not improbable In afew years we may see lace ruffles in bosoms and cuifs; if #0, cer- tain modifications of the dress suit will be de- manded, by which the wearer will be the gainer in elegance of apparel and general effective- ness, Th embroidered front is of the finest needlework not showy vines, but tine inobtru- sive embroidery. The newest collars are called the English col- lars, and are very high, with deep turn-dowa points, ‘The necktie for dress is the narrow folded white muslin tie with the stiff bow and straight ends. Black silk ties are often worn by gentle- men of quiet tastes, but white satin Is never used by gentlemen of refinement. Black and colored silk stockings, elther plain or slightly embroidered in colors, are worn with pumps for dress occasions. For ordinary wear, what are called ‘‘digitated socks” (that is, the toes are separated like glove-fingers) are the newest styles in fine English merino. The tendency is again for broad-toed shoes. Fine French linen handkerchiefs for dress do not have quite as wide hems as formerty, and are finely hemetitched, with the monogram or initial embroidered in white. For general use handkerchiefs with colored borders are used. Gloves for dress are to be found in a variety of delicate and light shades, but for general use are in dark, rich shades of reddish browns, and decorated with wide stitching on the back, either in the same color or in black. SSS Ae eS Five Cents a Day. From the Brooklyn Fagie. The cumulative power of money is a fact very generally known, but not generally appreciated. There are few men living to-day at the age of sixty-five, hanging on to existence by some slender employment, or pensioners, it may be, on the bounty of kindred or friends but who might by exercising the smallest particle of thrift rigidly adhered to in the past, have set aside a respectable sum which would materially help them to maintain their independence in their old age. Let us take the small and insig- nificant sum of five cents, which we daily pay to have our boots blacked, to ride in a cara dis- tance we are able to walk, or to procure a bad cigar we are better without, and see what its value is in the course of years. We will suppose a boy of fifteen, by blacking his own boots, or saving his’ car fare or going without his cherished cigarette, puts by five cents a day, in one year he saves $18.25, which, being banked, bears interest at the rate of 5 per cent per annum, compounded bi-yearly. On this basis, when our thrifty youth reaches the age of. 65, having set. his five cents per day religiously, aside during 50 years, the result is truly surpris- ing. He has accumulated no less a sum than $8,993.17. A scrutiny of the progress of this result is interesting. At the age of 30 our hero has $895; at 40, #877; at 50, $1,667; at 60, 2,962. After 15 years’ saving his annual interest more than equals his original principal; in 25 years it is more than double; in 35 years It is four times as much; in 45 years it is eight times as much, and the last year's interest is $86, or ten and a half times as much as the annual amount he puts by. The actual cash amount saved in 50 years Is €912.50, the difference between that amount and the grand total of $3,893.17, viz. $2,960.67, is accumuls interest. What a mag- nificent premium for the minimum of thrift that can well be represented by figures. eo A GaLtaxT FRENCH GENTLEMAN became enamored of the handsome young wite of a dyer, who, as a punishment for the assurance of his addresses, conspired with her to bring the would-be lover to grief. jAccording to the arrangement a meeting of the lady and her ad- mirer, at the house of the former, was inter- rupted by the entrance,of the outraged artisan, who, rushing upon the. cond! ‘lonally indetens!- ble lover, caught hinj around the body and hurled him head-foremgst into an immense vat filled with a liquid dy@. Of the manner of his preservation from drowaing, of his escape and return to his home, tradition js silent. Awaken- Ing the next mornii he ex-gay French gen- tleman discovered, to, his consternation and disgust, that from ‘crown to sole his entire skin was indelibly dyed in a dark, deep blue, teward the removal of which all saponaceous triction or thermal par- boiling was as but a tinkling cymbal and @ sounding brass! Truth to state, each attempt at a removal seemed but to result ina deeper setting of the cuticular coloring. Physi- claus and chemists falling, a noted dyer was summoned. In an instant he recognized the peculiar tint. “I can do nothing with that,” said he. ‘There is but one dyer living who holds the secret to that color. Heis its inventor and patentee. To him alone must you apply for help.” In agony of despair the ex-gallant was therefore compelled to send tor the author of his sorrow. After viewing the pitiable rhe the inventor shook his head. “Sorry,” said he, “but Ican effect no cation i. that color. You see, the entire ienéy of the tint the main merit of the patent.” ‘And must I remain blue forever ?” the shivering vic- tim, “Well, not coat th ” replied the dyer musing. “I can modify the ‘trouble some. If, sir, you are of sustain! certain de- geal “can alter is blue to a arming green!”—Chambers’ Journal. LADIES GOODS. GENTLEMEN’S GOODS. POTOMAC RIVER BOATS.
