As-oeiation says that .J,000,

packers of Norfolk and Portsmouth.
The average value of the oysters is :)5

The work of laying the pipes for the
new syMem of heating is going on rap
idly iii Troy, N. Y., the contractor ex
pecting to have them all down by the
middle of September. Uv the middle of
Augut the company hail over o00 sub
scribers booked. According to the Ittid
gcl, the estimated cost of iittingup a three
story brick house with necessary piping
and radiators was about 200, and the
expense of heating such house by steam,
using all required day ami night, will
not exceed $20 per year.
To-day there are 7,000,000 barrels,
of 40 gallons each, of crude petroleum
above ground in the oil regions. This
vast amount of heat and light is going a
begging at GO cents a barrel, anil every
hour adds to this ocean of oil, and in
spite of the enormous consumption the
stock accumulates. Every new use to
which petroleum is applied possesses in
terest to producers, and that day when
crude oil will take the place of coal for
steam producing purposes is considered
not far distant. Experiments have been
made in this respect, with a small
steamship, with the best results, and as
thus burned no smoke or odor is appar
ent. The new industry of getting and
shipping pine tags, or pine straw, as
they arc commonly called, says
theWilmington (N. C.) Star, is gradu
ally assuming proportions, the article
being baled ready for shipment faster
than freight room can be found for it in
New York steamers, to which place, we
believe, -all the shipments are made from
here. Further South, from Pensaeola,
Fla., for instance, it is shipped to "West
ern cities, iu considerable quantities. In
those places it undergoes a steaming
process, by which the straw is converted
into a fleecy fiber which is used for stuf
fing mattresses, cushions, etc.
There is no real economy in buying
ready made underclothing of poor
quality. The cotton soon wears out
and is more easily discolored in the
wash. Its cheapness is often attractive,
but in the end it will prove expensive.
Neither is it economical to purchase
cheap cottons or calicoes to be made up
in the family. The highest priced will
always prove the cheapest; for there
are just as many stitches needful to
make up a five-cent cotton cloth or cali
co as eight or ten-cent goods, and the
latter will wear twice as long as the
former. It is poor economy to employ
young and inexperienced servants at
low wages. Their board is the same as
that of more competent servants, and
-they will destroy, break and waste far
more than an equivalent for higher
wage,-", without taking into considera
tion the comfort and equanimity of the
mi-trass of the household.

There were two men (about lN'iS),
Stiekpeiiny it Whevvell, who owned a
saw-mill near Old Tiivv 11, Me., in com
mon. The arrangement under which
the mill was operated was that each one
had the mill all to himself during the
alternate weeks. Stickpeiinv was a
mean, ru-tv old chap. Whevvell wa- a
shrewd, investigating young man. The
mill was run by a crude, rough kind of
an under-hot vvheel that gave verv little
power for the amount of water u-ed, -o
that the water wa- often short. Whe
well wanted to put in a new iron spiral
vent wheel then ju-t coming out, but
Stiekpeniry would have nothing to do
with it. lie wasn't going to lay out
money for any "such job a- that."
I'inalfy Whevvell said he would pav all
the bills, to which Stiekpennv' at la-t
agreed, "but provided that 3011 put the
wheel in in 30111 week." So tin- new
wheel wa- put iu, and Whevvell, being
of a mechanical turn of mind, experi
mented with it, and -0011 found bv
plugging up some of the orifices the -aw
went through the log fa-ter than when
they were all open. So he plugged them
up during the week, anil alvvavs pulled
the plugs all out again for Stiekpennv
to operate with. So it began to be no
ticed that somehow or other Whevvell
alw:i3s managed to saw a couple tliou--and
more feet of lumber iu his week
than ever Stickpeniu could, no matter
how the pond vas, Finally Stiekpeiiny
went down to see Whewell about it.
Said he: "Whevvell, how i- it thai
3011 alwa3s manage to -aw more lumber
in a given time than I can when my turn
come- round?" Says Whewell:
" Don't 3011 know how that is? Waal,
I'll tell 3011. it's because 3011 ain't been
treatin'Of me fairh on this matter.
It'sag'in nature. You can't expect the
mill to .-aw as well for V'ou as it doe- for

that, and went awa " Hut -till the mill
went on regularU turning out more lum
ber for Whewi-ll'than Stiekpeiiny man
aged to get out of it; so finalh the lat
ter came around and .-aid: " What'
your bill? I'll p:i3 1113 .-hare." lie
paid it, and thereafter s'tickpeum- man
aged to saw lumber just as lively a
Whewell did. " Well." said the old fel
low, "I alvvas knew that the folk
around here were all ag'in me, but I
never thought the Almighty was; " and

The Fourth of July under the Midnight
Sun.
A part of Americans celebrated the
102d anniversary of our national inde
pendence at North Cape, Norwa-, lati
tude 71 l.V, longitude 2." ."0. They
arrived there at 11 o'clock on the night
of .Inly itl, and at one minute after mid
night "guns were fired and the -hrill
sounds of the engine's whistle were made
to respond to the number of stars on
our flag, and loud cheers given to usher
iu our great national holiihiy. The
party then ascended the almost perpen
dicular cliff (900 feet high) and raised
the American flag, the flag being made
for the occasion by the ladies of the
part3 out of materials purchased at one
of the Norwegian towns. "When the flag
was raised cheers and guns again re
sounded over the waters. It was cer
tainly a most extraordinary place for
such a celebration jirobablv the first
time that a party of Americans ever
celebrated the Fourth of July at such an
hour and at such a latitude" and longi
tude. The midnight sun shone upon
them all the time with dazzling bright
ness. Far to the north thev gazed out
on the Atlantic Ocean dashing against
the great cliff on which they stood.
Behind them were the snow-clad moun
tains, along which the had been coa-t-ing,
and not a living creature wa- near
them but the sea birds that arose scream
ing from the water as the silence of their
home was broken. The North Cape is
l)eond seventy-one degrees of north
latitude and about 100 miles north of
Hammerfest, the most northerh" town
in the world. It is five degrees further
north than the most northern part of Ice
land. Scientific American.
Siberian Exiles.
The Siberian exiles, when released
from prison and the mines, have had to
choose between starving or stealing the
means of subsistence: being deprived of
all civil rights, thev were not allowed to
adopt any honest calling. Such has
beeu the 'situation of Siberian exiles for
centuries. Under the circumstances it
was natural that during the warm, sea
sons the Siberian forests' should be tilled
with criminal vagrants, who resorted to
begging, stealing, robbing, and murder,
in order to keep soul and ood3 together.
Both the economical and the moral in
terests of Siberia suffered from these
evils, and the Government has often
been petitioned to remeilj them. It had
been found that, in order t- keep all the
exiles in prison, it would be 1 ecessary to
erect a large additional numb-,? of pris
ons, costing not less than fifty li'illions
of roubles. The Government "could not
spare such a'sum of mone3', and so the
Czar recenth promulgate'd an order
allowing the" exiles to pursue different
occupations, upon the recommendation
and under the surveillance of the local
authorities. The political exiles, how
ever, are denied this right of honestly
making a living.

Tiie leaves of tin maple and oak, ami
of a few woodv shrubs, -ueh as the

pain- taken for preservation. Of the

rock maple), exhibiting all the shades of
red and yellow sometime- in the same

will be -uilicient.
Select from the oaks Qucmt. roccinra
(the -eailet oak), with its glowing red
leaves, ami Q. discolor (thcswaiap white
oak), with rich brown deeph -eallopeil
leaves. Thc-e give elegance of form
and beauty of color. When pre-sed and
dried thev" are veiy effective as decora

tumn tints of claret and rrim-on and
gold, are line material for wall bouquets.
Ke.-embKiig ferns in their pinnatifid

glon- and grandeur to main' a humble

The boughs of some old trees are so
crooked and curved :is to resemble the
antler.- of deer, and when covered with
lichen- and drooping moss are fine or
naments for an entrance hall or libraiy.
These are u-uall ancient hemlocks or
junipers, and are found in damp locali
ties. Main- pretty things may be made
of the.-e 1110S.-3' boughs .-ueh as vases
and stands for dried grasses, or pres-ed
ferns and sumacs: also hanging h-iskcts
for holding pots of living plants or dried
leaves and flowers, and easels for sup
porting sketches of rural seenen". A
little ingenuity in cutting and trimming
the branches and of wiring them into
the desired shape, will make of the mo-t
rofracton' boughs very beautiful objects.

The lichens that cover the fallen limbs
of trees, old dilapidated fences, and the
bowlders scattered here and there
through the woods have a beauty pecu
liarltheir own. Wooden brackets to
which their lavender and gray ruffles
are glued adorn a room and serve main
useful purposes are c-peeialh desirable
to hold a pot of growing vines that will
driKp gracefulh over and about them.
Collcma laccrum, resembling rosette? of
pearl gnu lace, or a full-blown rose
carved in stone, may be found in moist
woods. This handsome species is very
desirable for covering oldpicture-f rames.
lending a quaint attraction to the. dingy
and discolored surface, which the3" should
nearh- hide, n ases of box-board or of
wood, covered with these lichens, are
handsome receptacles for branches of
autumn leaves or ferns.
A wooden cross having these lichens
so closely glued upon it as to hide its
material" looks as if ehi-elled in some
arabesque pattern from solid granite.
Such a cross should rise from a base cov
ered with the more common fiat species
that abound on rocks in pastures and by
the wa3-side.
Ccnomycc rangifcrina (the reindeer
moss), that throw's up its slender pearl
white branchlets so profusely in pine
forests and woody pastures that they
seem mantled with hoar-frost, is very
pretty for mingling with pyrola anil
ground pine in Christmas wreaths. It
is so common that its beaut3 is often
overlooked. An exquisite cross, re
sembling carved ivory, can be made of
this in the same manner as that from the

widely separated localities iu Knglaml,

that the men of the party were
.strong ami weather-beaten, and un-qiie-tionahh'
familiar with hard work.
Only half a dozen of them come from
London or its neighborhood, while
about 70 of them hail from the vicinitv
of Ihirham. Thev came in the-teerage
