A colony of Swedes have purchased a large tract of land on the Blue Moun tain, extending from the Delaware Water Gap to the Wind Gap, on which they propose to settle and devote their attention to raising goats and the man ufacture of Sweitzer-k .sj. Sixty men and women of San Fran cisco have gone into the mountains, under the direction of Dio Lewis, to live in tents for four months. They will eat plain food, ta' e plenty of ex ercise, move from place to place, and return home, they hope, in improved health. A rude inveslig dor went to a spirit ual Keance in Memphis, with a squirt gun in his pocket lillo I with bright red dye, and, when a "materialized" form appeared at the aperture of the cabi net, ho shot the liquid with skilful aim.

Thousands of Americans, who are taking steamer passage for Europe to see th wonders of the old world, have never seen the greater wonders of their own country. However, fashion dic tates what we shall eat and drink and wear, why should it not interpose in the pleasure-seeking line? Perhaps some day it will be fashionable foi Americans to visit America A wriYer in the- London Lancet, speaking of the effects of cold and warm baths. Bays: "The ultimate result of hot and cold baths, if their tempera ture b j moderate, is about the same, the difference being, to use the words of Uraun, that 'cold refreshes by stim ulating the functions, heat by physi cally facilitating them; and ill this lies the important practical difference be tween the cold water system and the thermal method of treatment' Evil May Day (May 1, 1-317) was thus called on account of the violence of the apprentices and populace of London, directed against foreigners, particular ly the French. The rioters were head ed by one Lincoln, who, witli fifteen others, was hanged; and 400 more in their shirts, and bound with ropes aud halters about their necks, were carried to Westminster, but upon crying 'Mercy, mercy 1 ' they were all pardoned by the King1, Henry Vlll.

There Is a clock at Worsley, Lo tt Ellesmero's seat in England, which at 1 o clock always strikes 13. The reason is that one day the great English canal maker of the last century, the Duke of Bridgewater, to whom the estate be longed, found a number of mechanics in his employ idling about after 1, when they ought to have returned to their work. Inquiring the meaning of this, he was told that they had not heard the clock strike, it being much more easy to miss hearing the single stroke than half a dozen or so. The next day the clock struck 13, and has done so ever since. Pulverization increases the capillary attraction or sponge-like property of soils, by which their humidity is ren dered more uniform. It is evident this capillary attraction must be greatest whero the particles of earth are linely divided. Gravels and sands hardly re laic water at all, while clays, not open by pulverization or other means, either do not absorb water, or when, by long fiction, it is absorbed, they retain too much. Water is not only necessary, as such, to the growth of plants, but it is essential as a kind or food, and as a medium through which plants absorb other food. Manure is useless to vege tation till it becomes soluble in water, and it would remain useless in a state of solution if it was so situated as to be excluded from air, for then the libres or mouths, unable to perform their functions, would decay and rot off. Pulverization in a warm season is also of great advantage in admitting the nightly dews to the roots of plants. Judicious Advertising. Springfield (Mass.) Kepnlilican. Kefoi iiis of all kinds seem to be in fashion. The reaction from the craze of speculation, and inflation aud poli tics, and a low moral standard brings with it application of goorl sense and economy, of better morals and higher tone, and soberer views of things in nearly all departments of life. One of t lie outcroppings of this new fashion of common sense is in the business of advertising a lopping off of the more expensive and sensational and vulgar modes of putting the things to sell be fore the attention of the person who buys. The reform. wps well voiced at a late meeting of the stove manufac turers, where the president denounced the ineffective and expensive advertis ing that has been much indulged in by the trade the tawdry lithographs and other sensational machinery, and rec ommended instead, the more exclusive use of the best newspapers. "If we would make the best possible use of our money," ho continued, "we should patronize ably conducted and respon sible newspapers. The newspaper is immeasurably the best medium open to our trade. The most liberal and ex pert advertisers testify to its value, and in the employment of its columns we would 2nd a means of escape from wasteful, und'gnified and ineffective methods to which so many resort in their eagerness to secure attention and patronage." These are, indeed, sug gestions of experience and common in stinct, that are being adopted by mer chants, manufacturers, and other class es of the community having occasion to engage in either purchasing or sell ing. Old and well established newspapers with constituencies representing the best classes of society, are undoubtedly the most available, the cheapest, and the most remunerative avenues of ad vertising. The constituency of a news paper,, the character, the consuming quality, the taste, and the variety of its readers, their respect for it, and the fidelity with which they and their fam ilies read it, are facts to be considered quite as much as the mere amount of gross circulation. Then, again, as ad vertisers cannot use all the newspapers, there is the question of selection ; and Into this enters the extent or complete ness, with which any one or more newspapers occupy a certain field, and render unnecessary the use of its local rivals. On all these points there is a field of discriminating intelligence by advertisers who would get the worth of their money, and the conclusions of the stove men are evidently rellecting the thought and action of ether classes of advertisers throughout the country. The revival conducted by Rev's. Mar quett and Olinger at the Crannell school house continues to grow in in terest and depen and widen its reclaim ing power. May the good work go on. The West Point paper factory pro poses to unite the manufacture of cheese with that of paper.

It appears that under the treaty of Ber lin no prince of any reigning house in Europe is eligible to the position; and as there is nothing certain about Grant's obtaining the imperial crown of America, it is thought that he might accept the crown of Bulgaria, to "get his hand in." There are indications of a contem plated corner on wheat, if rumors pre vailing in New York have any foun dation. It i3 said to be generally un derstood there that James R. Keene, who is now in Chicago, has purchased about four million bushels of Decem ber wheat, and intends to store it until the price reaches a point where he is satisfied to realize. The price paid was 80 to 85 cents per bushel. The advance in Chicago on Monday was one cent, and the corner was said to be developing very slowly. Fremont Herald. Anatomy of a I'iauororte. A writer has taken the trouble to give the actual materia) used in con structing a pianoforte. In every in strument there are fif.een kinds of wood, viz, pine, maple, spruce, cherry, walnut, whitewood, apple, I asswoou and birch, all of which are indigenous; and mahogany, ebony, holly, cedar, beech and rosewood, froai Honduras. Ceylon, England, South America and Germany. In this combination, elas ticity, strength, pliability, toughness, resonance, lightness, durability and beauty are individual qualities, and the general result is voice. There are also used of the metals iron, steel, brass, white metal, gun metal and lead. There are in the same instrument of se ven and a half octaves, when completed, 214 strings, making a total length of 7?7 feet of steel wire, and 5C0 feet of white (covering wire). Such a piano will weigh from COO to 1,000 pounds, and will last with constant use (not abuse) fifteen or twenty years. The GouJoiieis cr Vei;;c. The prosaic cabman never annoys you in Venice, writts a correspondent of the San Francisco Chronicle. In his stead the highly theatrical gondolier implores you to brave the sea with him in a bark that is as black as a coal, as lithe as the water-snake, as mysterious a night itself. No picture can give the living expression of this beautiful aud poetic barge. It is long and slim; its two ends rise out of the sea like the warped edges of a curled leaf; its bow is decorated with a proud, blade of steel, .that flashes like silver and is shaped like a broad-ax, with the addi tion of five or seven teeth, as the case may be. The stem and stern of the gondola are decked over and often richly carved! In the center is an open epace, carpeted and cushioned, and, when desirable, covered with a black bonnet that is not unlike the box of a hackney coach. There are glass win dows in the sides of this dainty and diminutive cabin, and a glass door; and from'the peak of the roof falls a black pall as dull and funereal in appearance as a pall of crape. This is the floating paradise of two voyagers. Black blinds are drawn across the windows and the dooi. There is a single deck hand, an uncommunicative gondolier, whose on ly cry is "To the right," or "To the left," as he nears a sharp bend in the canal, and thus hails or warns the gon dolier who approaches us unseen. We rest upon the waters like a long ostrich plume. Two-thirds of our barge is in the air; we rock lightly from side to side, and wheel as easily and as sud denly as a seabird on the wing. There is something delicious in the very mo tion of the gondola. It seems to live; it threads its ways H3 if by instinct through narrow passages that are ob scured with the gloomy shadows of the old aud crumbling palaces that every where tower above the stone-cold squalor of this strange sea city. The very name of the ba'rchetta is Leautifvl gondola, called "goon-dolah" here, with a decided accent on the first sylla ble; the rest of the word is almost one, or sounds like the echc of some other word. It floats through the songs of the people as naturally as it floats on the calm, green tide that ebbs and flows under their grated windows and across their very door-steps. The gondolier is a fellow of infinite skill; only a life-long practice can give him the wonderful mastery of this sin gle long oar which he pushes it is never pulled in this latitude at the stern of the gondola, with much grace ful posturing on the narrow deck just aft of the lover's cabin. Sometimes there are two gondoliers, one at each end of the barge, pushing their oars on opposite sides of it; you may be suto they are foreigners or officials who thus hasten through the rivers of the island city, or some voyagers bound to the neighboring isles that lie miles away i the broad 1 rgoon. The Tale of the Grasping Grocer. The Grasping Grocer lives under the bed. Now, when the baby wakes up in the morning, she almost always begins to cry. But this is only in fun; you know; she wants Mamma, to ask her what the matter is. "What's the ma ter, baby " "Baby's got a pain," answered the baby, making believe she is crying very hard indeed. Then Mamma knocks on the side of the bed and calls: "Mr. Grasping Grocer, are you at home?" and a gruff voice answers "Yes, I am, what do you want?" It's Mamma herself who is talking and the baby knows too, only she makes believe she doesn't. "My baby ha3 got a pain, and must have some medicine," says Mamma. "All right," replies the Grasping Grocer; it will be sixty-live cents." "But I haven't got sixty-five cents! I've only forty-live cents." "Then you can't have the medicine, says the gruff voice. That's the way he always does you know, and that's why they call him the Graspiug Grocer. You may think its funny for them to call him a grocer at all, if he sells medicine, but the baby always gets her cookies at the grocery, and so she thinks every one except Mamma and Papa is a grocer, no matter whether he sells black rubber dolls or ginger snaps. Now, what's to be done? The Grasp ing Grocer under the bed wants sixty five cents for his medicine, and Mamma has only forty-live cents, and baby cry ing hard with the pain she hasn't g'.t Dear, dear, what's to bd done? Suddenly ' baby stops crying and reaches way down to her little bare toes. Then up come3 the tiny hand shut fiist and close. "Here is sixty five cents Mamma." She thought she found it between her toes. So Mamma reaches down and gives the money to the Grasping Grocer and baby swallows the make believe medi cine, and in another minute is splash ing away in the bath tub before dress ing time, and the pain is all gone. Susceptible Language. Among the papers of a court record was the return of a deputy sheriff, up on the back of a writ which he had been called upon to serve. Thus read the truthful deputy's return: "I further certify that said J W did willfully and maliciously obstruct me in the performance of my duties, lie called me an a&s; a dolt; an idiot; a scoundrel; and declared that I would steal the coppers from my dead father's eyes, all of which I do positively, though with pain, certify to be true." If that return was read aloud in Court, it must have caused something more audible than a simple smile. This was equal to the enterprising farmer and stock-raiser who wrote a letter of thanks to the editor of an ag ricultural pauer for his efforts in be half of their society, and also thanks lor having introduced new and improv ed varities of swine and sheep. 'Ihe editor had been absent from an agri cultural fair of which our farmer had been a manager, and the latter wrote to him, in part, as follows: "Dear axd Respected Sin, I was sorry not to see you at our fair. Some grand hogs of exactly your own species were on exhibition. Also I saw a big, long-woolled buck of your kind to a dot In short, where there was such a variety of domestic beasts, I must say, I was surprised at not seeing you present." Setting 31 ilk tor Cream. An exchange remarks: "it is not to be wondered at that the aveiagedairy uian is puzzled to know what to do for the best. Prof. Wilkinson telis him plainly that nothing but shallow pans and subeai th ducts will do; while Prof. Hardin is equally certain deep pans (twenty inches) sunk to the rim in wa ter, at a temperature vt 50 degrees, alone insure the large-it yield of the best quality of butter; and now both of ;hesa are overtopped by the new Cooley sj stein, which proposes to inclose the milk in a deep, narrow can with a water-tight lid, and sink it under water, which ia carefully kept at a low tem perature by the use of ice. Our own experiments satisfy us that both ex tremes are right, provided certain rules are observed. At a temperature above CO degrees deep cans will not do; the milk will usually sour before the cream reaches the surface. When this tem perature is unavoidable, shallow and broad pans will give the best results. When cold water is abundant and the means of keeping it at 50 degrees or lower are at hand, it will be found that cans twenty inches deep and eight or nine in diameter will save much labor, and at tho same time make quite as much and belter butter." Journal of Clicmislry. The Sun For 1S7J). The Srx will be printed every day during Ihe year to come. Its purpose and method will be the same as in the past: To present a!l the news in a rea dable shape. ar,d to tell the truth though the heavens fall. The Sun has been, is, and wil con tinue to be independent of every body and everything save the Truth and its own convections of duty. That is the only policy which an honest newspaper nee 1 have. That is the policy which has won for this newspaper the conti deuce and friendship of a wider const! tuency than was ever enjoyed by any other American Journal. TriE Sun is the newspaper -for the people. It is not for the rich man against the poor man, or for the poor man against the rich man, but it seeks to do ennui justice to all interests in the communitv. It is not the organ of anv nerson. class, sect or party. Theie need be no mystery about its loves am hates. It is for the honest man against the rocrues everv time. It is for the honest Democrat as against the (lis honest Republican, and for the honest Republican against the dishonest Iem ocrat. It does not take its cue from the uterance of any politician or polit ical organ izal ion. It gives its support unreservedly when men or measures are in agreement with the Constitution and with the principles upon which this Republic was founded lor the pen. nle. Whenever the Constitution and constitutional principles are violated as in the oulragious conspiracy of lST'J, by which a man not elected was placed in the President's Office, where he still remains it speaks out for the l iirht. This is Tin: Sun's idea of inde pendence. In tins respect there will be no change in its progrpmtnc tor The Sun has fairly earned the hear- tv hatred of rascals, frauds, and hum bugs of all sorts and sizes. It hopes to deserve that hatred not less in the yoar 1ST!), than in 18TS. 1S77, or any vear gone bv. Tick Mx will continue to shine on the wicked with un migrat ed brishtnes. While the lessons of the past should be constantly kept before the people. The Sun does not propose to make it self in lS7i) a magazine ot ancient his tory. It is printed for the men and women of to-day, w hose conceiii is chiellv wiih the affairs of to-lay. It has both the disposition and the abil ity to afford its readers with promptest, fullest, and most accurate intelligence of whatever in the wide world is worth attention. To this end the resources be'.ong to well-established prosperity will be liberally employed. The present disjoi.ited condition of parties in this country, and the uncer tainty of the future, lend an extraor dinarv significance to tne events of the coining vear. The discussion of the press, the elebates and act of Congress, and the movements of the leaders in every section of the Republic w ill have a direct bearing on the Presidential election of 1S80. an event that must be regarded with the most anxious in terest by every patriotic American, whatever his political ideas or alle giance. To these elements of interest may be added the piobability that the Democrats will control both houses of Congress, the increasing feebleness of the fraundulent Administration, and the spread and strengthening everywhere of a healthy abhorence of fraud in any form.' To presence with accuracy and clearness the exact situa tion in each of its vary ing phases, and to expound, according to its well known methods, the principles that should guide us through the labyrinth, will iKvin important part of IiieSuns work for 1871). We have the means of making Tin: Sun. as a political, a literary and a gen eral newspaper, more entertaining and more useful than ever betore; and we mean to apply them freely.
