A correspondent of the New York Tribune says that auy one who allows his fruit trees to slowly Btarve to death and then adds insult to injury by blaming them for not rewarding his indolence with bountiful crops, deserves to be debarred from good fruit the remainder of his life. The Pittsburg Stockman, in noting the fact that for three successive years the corn crop has been more or less of a failure, says the fault is not to be laid entirely to the unfavorable sea sons, but to the plantiug of inferior seed, selected from the immature crop of one year for planting the next. The American Cultivator suggests that one great reason why so much dilapidated wire fence is seen, is be cause tho wires are stretched too tightly. Cold contracts iron, making the wire shorter in winter than when the fence was built at a milder tem perature, and something has to give way. The citizens of Seward, this state, are making an effort to have the Un ion Pacific road build a lino to Sew ard.

Miss Bertha Boyd, keeper of the Oak Point Light-house, at St. Steph ens, N. B., for the past four years, has just received a boat from the govern ment worth $125, for saving some men from drowning about a year since. It is upholstered and handsomely made.

A French meteorologist has, in the exposed court of his house, two bars of iron planted iu the earth, to each of which is fixed a conductor of coated wire, terminating in a telephouie re ceiver.

The home committee on patents agreed to re port favorably a bill authorizing the attorney-general to begin proceed ings to set aside any patent if satisfied it was procured through fraud or misrepresentation, and empowering the United States courts to declare fraudulent patents void. It also agreed to a bill amtnding the patent law6 so that an article patented in a foreigu country previous to its patent in the United States, the latter patent will not expire until seventeen years after date of the foreign patent. Rirer Matter. Washington, Jan. 9. In refusing to refer the Mississippi river com mission report to the committee on Mississippi river improvements, to day, the house reversed its rule. That report has always been referred to the committee on levees and improve ments, and it was particularly desired by friends of continued and steady progress of the works along the Mis sissippi river to obtain the same ref erence this year, as it was deemed important to keep the Mississippi river appropriation apart from the river and harbor appropriation. ' The Ways aad Meaao Commit tee. Washington, Jau. 10. At the meet ing of the ways and means committee Morrison aunounced the following sub-committees: Changes iu tariff laws, Mills, A. T.

The members of the Lancaster county bar association teudered a banquet the other evening to Judges G. B. Lake, retiring chief Justice and Judge M. B. Reese, the incoming jus tice of the state supremo court. On the evening of the 9th at an early hour the parlors of the Arlington were filled by members of the bar and bench and Gov. D'awes, Judge Dundy and other distinguished citizens of the state. The guests partook of a splen did supper, listened to some good, appropriate and eloquent responsive speeches, and altogether a good social time in which Judge Dundy told the truth iu a very few words "the ar rangement of this banquet and the spirit in which it was giyen reflected great credit upon the Lancaster' bar association.' A Good Idea. Sonio one suggests "let there be a study exercise." But a teacher rises to remark tbat bis pupils are at least supposed to be studying all the time between recitations. Well and good, but a part of each day should be spent by the teacher in helping the pupils to study. When a class has finished reciting they are dismissed to their Beats with a portion of the text book marked off as the dark ground they are to conquer before the next recita tion. Instead of this plan, the teacher should review the advance lesson with the class, showing tbem how to study, which are the chief points on which to concentrate their thoughts and which portions of the text books are less important and merely explana tory. With a little judicious assist ance from the teacher the child will accomplish more in ten minutes than he could alone in forty minutes. Ex. Application for Liquor License.
