Improvement hy Thorough Tillage.
To develop plant food by thorough
tillage is often cheaper and better than
to buy it. Every time the soil is stirred
fresh elements of fortility aie brought
forth and made available. Every farmer
knows tho advantage of frequent hoeing
in his cornfield aud among his cabbages, and the principle applies to all
parts of the farm and to all.crops raised. The advantage that comes to the
growing crop by this stirring is from
the fact that more of the undeveloped
•wealth of tho land is made available
and ready for nse.
Let this process, then, goon. Stir tho
soil, make it fine; stir it again, make it
finer, and keep stirring and pulverizing, and a. very long step will have been
taken toward improving the farm. The
extra crop from thorough tillage will
fully pay for the extra labor, arid the
permanent improvement of the land
will be so much clear gain over the ordinary methods. And it will be found a
large profit and worthy of the farmer's
highest ambition, says L. Davis in his
iWoik on improving the farm.
The Great lawyer's Income Was Unusually Limited Even For His Say.
One of onr correspondents has been so
lncky as to fall in with a little leather
covered book, like those of bank depositors, which contains Daniel Webster's
autograph record of his legal receipts.
This chronicle fills 28 pages and' extends
a little more than "from 1833 to 1836 inclusive. The first entry, dated September in the former' year, is of $50, and
the second of §20, for retaining on the
New Hampshire circuit. The first fee of
$1,000 was paid in May, 1834, by a Mr.
Badger. Services regarding CUley's will
commanded §800. The total amount for
the first year was footed up as §13,140,
with the remark, "Sept. 22, 1834, thus
done and concluded."
A similar summing up appears at the
close of each other year. The second
total is §15,183.74; the third is $21,-
793. The first entry of §2,000 was in
1835, March 7; the first of §3,000 Dec.
7 in the same year. The last payment
was in respect to Florida land. The
largest single honorarium was §7,500.
In February of the fourtli year §5,000 is
set down as bestowed in a case of Trinity
church, New York.
In turning over this record leading
metropolitan and even provincial lawyers are astonished that Webster, although 20 years in Boston, so undervalued his services. He learned better
at "last. When Robert C. Winthrop
looked at the earliest date, he said,
"That's just the time that I was ending
my studies in Wehster's office," and the
chirography led him to add that Webster never wrote a firm hand. Nobody
surveyed the relic with more interest
than Dr. O. W. Holmes. Among other
things he said: "Had the influx been
tenfold, Webster's purse would have remained empty still. Had its capacity
received like the sea, whatever entered
there would have run off like water
from the back of a duck."—New York

"PROPHETIC VICTOR HUGO.
His Startling: Prediction Ahout Kapoleon
III Came True.
The Due de Momy, Napoleon's mouthpiece, actually wrote these truly infamous words: "If you arrest Victor
Hugo, do what you will with him."
It was soon after this, when Napoleon,
wading through blood, trampling upon
women and children, persecuting and
silencing all that was best in France,
confirming his throne by bribery, corruption, imprisonment, banishment and
wholesale murder—it was at such a
moment, this adventurer having got
himself accepted by the courts of Europe
as the ruler of the French, that Victor
Hugo hurled against the "Man of December" these truly appalling but prophetic words:
"Let us not slay this man. Let us
keep him alive. A superb punishment!
Oh, if one day he might pass along the
highway naked, bowed down, trembling
as the grass trembles at the wind, under
the execration of the whole human racel
People, stand aside! The man is marked
with a sign! Let Cain pass. He belongs
to God."
An eyewitness described to me Napoleon III as he appeared on the evening before Sedan—an old, bowed down
looking man, stooping on his horse, the
dye washed out of his hair, his mustache draggled, passing unsaiuted by his
own officers, with the common soldiers
grinding their teeth and muttering
curses upon him. Had this vision risen
before the eyes of the prophet poet in
1852, his words could hardly have been
more aptly chosen. —H. R. Howeis in

The Chanter Girls.
Miss Alida Chanler, the last young
woman to be reported engaged to George
Vauderbilt, belongs to the Chanler family, who are prominent not only because,
of their social position and wealth, but
on account of their strong individuality. Miss Chanler is a sister-in-law of
Amelie Rives, her oldest brother being
Armstrong Chanler.
There are three Chanler girls, each
with pronounced ideas and views of
her own. Miss Margaret Chanler is devoted to woman's rights and Miss Bessie Chanler to art, but at the same time
is fond of society. The youngest of the.
family is Miss Alida, whose hobby is
society.
- She is a tall, handsome brunette, who.
is fond of all sorts of .sport, and a girl
who will undoubtedly make a brilliant:
match, even though she may not marry,
that most prominent of bachelors, Mr.
George-Vanderbilt.—New York Herald.
Silvering Mirrors.
Mirrors are usually silvered by coating the glass with amalgam. For this
purpose a large, perfectly fiat stone is
provided, and upon it is evenly spread a
sheet of tin foil without crack or flaw.
This is covered to the depth of one-
eighth of an inch with clean mercury.
Tho plate of glass, perfectly cleaned,
from all grease and impurity, is floated^
on to the mercury by sliding, so as to
exclnde all a'ir bubbles. It is thea
pressed down by loading it with
weights, in order to press out all the
mercury which remains fluid. This is
received in a gutter around the stone..
After about 24 hours it is gently raised"
upon its edge, and in a few weeks it is
ready to frame.—Family Journal.
