‘In Harbor At Last.
PAUL manna.
I think it is over, over-—
I think it is over at last :
Voices of foeman and lover,
The sweet and the bitter has passed:
Life, like a tempest of ocean,
Hath outblown its ultimate blast.
There’s but a faint sobbing seaward.
While the calms of the tide deepen leeward,
And behold! like the welcoming quiver
Of heart-pulses throbbed through the river,
Those lights in the Harbor at last—
The heavenly Harbor at last !
I feel it is over, over—
The winds and the wates surcease :
How few were the days of the Rover
That smiled in the beauty of peace!
And distant andhdim was the omen
That hinted redress or release.
From the ravage of Life, and its riot,
What marvel I yearn for the quiet ,
Which hides in this Harbor at last 7-
For the lights, with their ‘welcoming quiver,
That throb through the sanctified river—
Which girdles the harbor at last—
The heavenly harbor at last?
I know it is over, over—
I know it is over at last; . . _
Down sail; the sheathed anchor uncover;
For the stress of the voyage has passed;
Life, like a tempest of ocean,
Hath outblowu its ultimate blast.
There's but a faint sobbing seaward,-
While the calm of the tide deepens leeward,
And behold ! like the welcoming quiver
Of heart-pulses throbbed through the river,
Those lights in the Harbor at last—
The heavenly Harbor at last !
Arabi 'Pacha to Mr. Gladstone.
LONDON, July Sir—Arabi Pacha wrote the
following letter to Mr. Gladstone a few days
before the bombardment of Alexandria, but
Mr. Gladstone did not receive it until after
the bombardment:
The Koran cemmands us to ,‘reeist if war
is waged against us. Hence England may
rest assured that the first gun she fires in
Egypt will absolve Egyptians from all treat-
ies. The control will cease, the propertyof
Europeans will be cOnficcated,the canals will
be destrdyed and the J chad be preached in
Syria, Arabia and India. The first blow
which England strikes Egypt, .will cause
blood to flow through the breadth‘uf "Asia
and Africa, the're'sponsibility florf Which will
be on the head Orangutan; ‘fI-Egypt is can
ready to be fastfrieuds with E'ngland."aud‘

within the'limits of 'her jurisdiction} IFin-
ally, England may rest assured we~ are deter-
mined to die for our country.

The French scheme for making an arti-
ficial sea in the;interior of Africa has been
abandoned. The commission appointed to”
investigate the project has reported that the
inevitable cost would be out of all proportion
to the problematical advantages, where in
the neighborhood of $250,000,000. Aside
from the impracticable nature of the enter-
prise it was reported that several punitive
losses might be expected to result from it.
One savant declared that by the influx ofthe
sea an immense number of fresh water wells
would be filled up and rendered useless, to
the great detriment of the people 5 on '5 the

Manager Abbey apriv'cd home last week.
,Nilsson will sail October 14, ahd’_she will
appear in concert in Boston probably about
the 1st of November. After giving two or
three concerts there she will proceed to
Canada and after-Ward go to New York. The
prices of admission to the concerts will be
about the sameIas they were when Mme.
Nilsson was here before—that is, from $2 to
34. Mr. Abbey says that he is obliged to
pay Nilsson a great deal more-money than
she received from Strakosch for her;‘;_A’meri-
can tour of a few years ago. Mrs. Langtry
will sail for New York, September 20, and
will appear at one of the theatres in that city,
at which one is not yet decided. Mrs.
Langtry is under engagement to Mr. Abbey
to play in this country between five and six
months, and she will be supported by her
own company of English actors and 'ac-
tresses. Her first appearance before an
American audience will be as Hester Graze.
brook in “An Unequal Match.” She will
subsequently play in “As You Like It,”
“ She Stoops .to Conquer," and “The
Hunchback." It is expected that she will
remain in New Y0rk..three or four weeks,
and then make an extended tour‘through the
country.. Mr. Irving’s American engage-
ment will begin in New York on the 29th of
October, 1883. He will be supported by
Miss Ellen Terry and a strong English com-
pany, comprising about fifty people.

The cable brings the news of the sudden
death at Tatlombrosa, near Florence, of Goo.
P. Marsh, for .the past twenty-one years
American minister. in Italy.' Mr. Marsh
celebrated his eighty-first birthday five
months ago. He was born in Woodstock,
Vt., and received his education at Dartmouth
Embracing the profession of the law, he rose
to prominence in his native state, was sent
to congress, and had been in the house for
I seven years when, in 1847, President Taylor
launched him into the diplomatic career by
appointing him minister to Constantinople.
After four years service there, he was sent
on a special mission to Greece. Returning
to this country, he discharged several public
trusts committed to him by the authorities
of Vermont, and was pursuing his favorite
studies when President Lincoln sent him to
Italy. The fact that five later presidents
have continued him at his post is the best
'attestation of the ability with which be filled ‘
it; yet it as a scholar rather than as a diplo-
mat that he was best known and willibe
longest remembered. His most important
works are the “Compendious Grammar of
the Old Northern or Icelandic Language,”
“The Camel,” “Lectures on the English
Language,” "Origin and History of the Eng-
lish Language,” and “The Earth, as modified
by Human Action." '

Their Abuses.
~- An-experienced stoekman, Col. Weld, puts
Ofilcers, Exhibitors and Spectators of Fairs
, on their guard. He writes in the August
American Agrztulturist as follows:
Influence is brought to bear upon the jury
in various ways. One man will openly ad-
dress a judge in praise Of his competitor's
exhibit, and loudly call attention to the best
points, but quietly regret certain defects, or
express doubts about the age or breeding of
the animals, or other points affecting the
competing exhibit. Sometimes a third party
discusses matters with a judge in a disinter-
ested, friendly way, talking up his friend‘s
stock or goods and trying to prejudice him
against other exhibits. It is very hard to
guard a jury against such influence. 1 have
Societjes take judges to one side and indicate
how in their judgment the awards should go,
by calling special attention to certain entries
of those who were known to be on terms of
aging others—ror damning them with faint
‘praise. There are many men ‘ appointed
judges who are unfit to serve, and who
know it themselves. These are wide awake
to watch and listen and find outhhat’prac-
ticai men think, and it is very easy, if it is
known that they are not strong, to influence
them. An exhibitor who goes to the show
to get prizes, by fair means or foul, will.
measure such a man at the first glance, and
“go for him," as the saying is. A weak
judge is of no account in any way. A jury
of two judges works better than one of
three, and a single good judge better than
either; but he must be a man to be depend-'
ed upon.
The system, especially prevalent in small ,
societies, of distributing the prizes about so
as to “encourage" all exhibitors and’ make
everybody happy, is most pernicious. At
such shows it matters very little who the
judges are. The prizes are worth nothing
any way as honors, and very little in money,
and so long as such a system is in vogue
they will be worth no more.
The Grapevine In August.
Most of the active work of the vineyard
is over, still the vineg will need some care.
The laterals may still need pinching, and
late shoots may.push:where-they are. not
wanted, and must'be'broken of. Most of
the troublesome insects of this‘se’a'son are
large, and readily noticed, so ’thatIthe only
remedy, whether for the la‘ge grii'p'evine
caterpillaraor the beetles mentioned on other
pages, hand-picking can be applied. The
chief troubles of the grape-grower this month
are the leaf-hopper. incorrectly called thrips
and mildew. The little insects,which insome
places rises in clduds‘as one passes among
the vines, and ,‘appears of a general dingy.
white color as it files, is, when caught and
examined, found to be handsomely marked
with scarlet. It remains attached to the
leaves, sucking the juices, in its early life,
and it is only when it gets wings, that its
presence is usually noticed. The only rem-
cdy that has been suggested for the leaf-
hOpper in its winged state, is to carry
lighted torches among - the vines _atI.night.f:
Mildew appears in the hot «dry-days.- IPalc
spots are seen on {the leaves, and if the un-
derside of these be examined, there will he
found ,the gray patches of the minute fun-
gus, which causes'the trouble. Sulphur is
the remedy. This upon the first appearance
of the mildew,should be freely and thorough
ly dusted upon the foliage Of the vine

and implement stores. The bellows arcgike

The dusting should be done on a hot still
day, and two, or at most three applications,
will save the foliage, which otherwise would:

unit for August.
Feeding and Fattenlng Geese.
Mr. D. Z. Evans, Jr., gives the following
culturz'st for August, on the "Feeding an
Fattening of Geese": '
Goslings, do not require much extra feed,
it they can get all the fresh and tender grass
they want, and unless this can be supplied,
breeding geese is not profitable. For the
first few weéks some . food must be given;
tenths of the mortality among fiedgiings, of
the various kinds of domestic fowis, can read
Eiiy be traced to feeding corn-meal.~ Cottage
cheese, in which red pepper (cayenne,) has
been sprinkled, is a very good food, and a
quantity of fresh onion tops, chOppedup‘
line, is often relished by them. . Stale bread
fsoaked in fresh milk, makes an excellent»
food for all young birds, and the way they
develop when fed liberally with if, 'wiliIas-
tonish any one who has not before tried'it
with his fowis. _‘.The greater part of the.
management of geese, consists in keeping
them (the goslings) free from dampness
while they are still “downy,” guarding them
from the attacks of rats, cat’s‘, weasels, and
,other of their enemies; in housing them Well
'run as often as possible. When they become.
fully feathered, they are abundantly able to
let the Igcesc find all their own food,which
they can *readily do On a large farm, until
iget short, when they are brought up, and
liberally dud regularly fed with compatill
being permitted to have their liberty, until a
week or two before they are to be killed,
when they are penned up and fed with all
they can eat. ‘ . . -
1 A Panama despatch says, concerning the
leonstruction of the canal: “Machinery is
farriving every day for. it at Aepinwall, and
‘each fresh arrival is causing serious loss to
the company. Parts are being mislaid or
lost, while the general situation becomes
'every day more' mixed. Machinery and
woodwork for the canal are now submerged,
..owing to the heavy rains. When required,
it will be next to an impossibility to find
certain parts, while- a great deal of it Will
'have been totally destroyed. The sanitary
arrangements on the Isthmus are abOmina-
hie, so it is no wonder that new comers are
dying. Out of a population of 4,000, twen-
ty-three persons have died in the past week.
or an average-of three a day. There is little
hOpe for any. improvement until. the dry
season commgees." ‘

country in the census year, amounted to
$7,000,000.000, of which more than one-

The laboring classes received that year 81,.

the American pcople,-about one-quarter as
much as the drink-bill; an average 0(8th to'

liquor. The public schools cost $100,000,-

Sir Garnet Wolseley, who is certainly a
competent authority, stated in a recent letter
that ninety per cent. of the crime in the
British army could be traced directly to
strong drink. '
Since the public aentimentiu favor of pro.
hibition is more pronounced in Scotland than
in England, the temperance phrty in the
House of Commons have decided to bring in
a local option {bill for Scotland alone; at the
next session of Parliament.
The Massachusetts Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Children has reported
to’ the Police Commissioners twenty-nine
sales of‘liquor to children during one week
by nineteen different dealers, contrary to the
law which forbids sales to minors. Thirteen
of the sales were to boys from six to sixteen
years of age, average age eleven; sixteen
sales to girls from seven to fifteen, average
age ten. The aaleajncluded whisky, ale and
beer. In two instances the boys drink at
'the bar. . ‘
Vineland was founded in 1861. It if
twenty-one years old. It has about 7,000
inhabitants. ' It has fifteen churches. It has
four public schools, and high school, and
_ twentyoelgbt'teachera. It has never licensed
the liquor traffic. The mayor acts as police
magistrate." He» has no salary. It has one
policeman. Cost of police for 1881, twenty
dollars. It appropriated last year $800 for
relief of poor-sit has nine poor to take care
of. It had a crime" in 1881, cases of drunk-
enness, ten; assaults,;five; larcency, four.—
Extent ‘ '
In Holland laws to restrict immoderate
deprive the seller of no just right, while at
the same time they protect the drinker. The
principa'lj feature consists in ., limiting the
number of licenses, and rigidly prohibiting
the sale of liquors by persons not holding li-
censes. No. person employed in any depart-
ment of the public'service can procure a
license, and the sale of liquors to intoxicated
persons and tovminors is prohibited under
heavy penalties; The most pleasing state-
ment -to be made in‘ this-connection is that
these- laws _are enforced.

It swings upon the leafless tree.
By stormy winds blown to and fro;
Deserted, lonely, sad to see,
And full of cruel snow. '
In summer's noon the leaves above
Made dewy shelter from the beat;
The nest was full of life and love ;—
Ah, life and love are sweet!
The tender brooding of the day,
The silent, peaceful dreams of night,
The joys that patience overpay,
The Cry of young delight,
_ The song thatthrough the branchesp'ings,
The nestling crowd with eager eyes,
The fiuttcr sort of untried wings,
. The flight of glad surprise :—
Ail, all are gone! I know not where;
And still upon the cold gray tree,‘,
Lonely and tossed by every aiIr,
That snow-filled nest I see.
I, too, had once a place of rest,
Where life, and love, and peace were
minc— '
Even as the wild-birds build their nest,
When skies and summer shine.
But winter came, the leaves were dead ;
The mother-bird was first to go,
The nestlings from my sight have fled ;
The nest is full of snow.

SCIENTIFIC lIlSCELLlNY.
Herr Rodas, surveyor to the Finnish
Government, has carefully measured the
height of a hole which, according to
authentic records, was bored two inches
above sea-level on the coast of Osterbottom
on June 25, 1755, and finds that the coast
at the point has risen six and one-third feet
in the 127 years, or more than half an inch a
year. ’
Among Sir John Lubbocks ants are some
" . workers which must be between six and seven
years of age and queens which are certainly
more than seven years old and probably more
than eight. ' ‘
A native assistant surgeon to the British
stationed in Afghanistan has found the dilut-
ed juice Of willow leaves to be an effective
substitute for quinine in' the treatment of in-
termittent fever.’
A non-exhilarating tonic of the inhabitants
of Central Africa is the Kola nut, which is
found to containcaffeine—the essential prin.
ciple of coffee—and glucose, which sweetens
it. It will freshen and sweeten the foulest of
stagnant water.-
A new explosive called “dynamogen” is
,. claimed by its inventor, M. Petrie of Vienna,
to be superior in nearly every respect to
gunpowder—it is cheaper, safer and more
effective, while it contains no substance
which can injure the guns. In view of the
announcement of so many new and greatly
superior explosives it. seems a little singular
that the old-fashioned gunpowder—firstused
its period so remote that its origin cannot
be traced—should be the chief dependence of
modern artillery!
it has been shown by 'Prof. Loomis that
more rain falls on the eastern than on the
western side of the continent. This is true
everywhere except in the higher latitudes.
Thus‘the average rainfall at San Francisco
is only from a half 'to a third as great in
quantity as on the coast of Pennsylvania;
. and the same or even more striking difference
may be found by comparing Morocco with
the China coast, and the west with the east
coasts of South Africa, Australia and South
America—the comparisons being in each
case made between points having the same
latitude.
The proportion of salt in the water of the
ocean .varies greatly in different localities.
M de la Grye has made a series of observa-
tions on the subject, in which—among many
interesting results—he has found that the
saltness diminishes rapidly as a coast is -
approached, due probably to the freshening
by rivers discharging into the sea. The salt
also lessens on the approach of icebergs.
These facts would seem to have an important
bearing on navigation,as in bad weather tests
of the saltness of the sea-water might enable
the mariner to avoid running into unseen
coasts or icebergs. ‘
Since 1874 the French Government has
authorized the organization of 330 scientific
missions, of which 168'were to operate in
Europe, 54 in Africa,48 in Asia, 36 in Amer)
ice, and 24 in Oceanica. M eat of’ these mis-
sions are still at workpand accomplishing
important scientific results.
At the Oxford University Observatory a
‘ survey is in progress of the relative bright-
ness of all stars - visible to the naked eye in
The work thus
the heavens contain abbot five hundred stars
brighter than the fifth magnitude. '
It is stated accordinng M. Lockyear, the
English astronomer, that the Egyptians have
recorded 378'”solar=-and 830 lunar eclipses.
Mr. Leckyearzthinks' the statement correct,
as the proportions are exact, and the eclipses
of the sun and moon would reach the respec-
tive numbers given in a period of twelve or
thirteen centuries. .
Philosophers have told us that all energy
upon the earth must have beensbrought into
existence by solar action. Prof. Milne,
however, .has culled the attention of the
Seismological Society of Japan .to the fact
that tone vast mine‘of- energy, quite inde-
pendent of the sun,'has been overlooked—
viz.,the earth‘s internal heat. The. surface
out croppings of this inexhaustible supply.
of force—found in volcanoes, hot springs.
and thelike—may be readily employed to
generate electricity, which may be transport-
. ed to neighboring cities and put to practical
service.-
During a total eclipse of its surface the
moon assumes acopper red color, which
gradually fades away as the eclipse pro-
gresses. Mr. W. Mattieu Williams accounts
for this curio’us phenomenon by supposing
. that the illuminated portion of the lunar
surface, lacking the ‘protection of an at-
mosphere, must be made red-hot by the sun's
rays. Only a thin. layer of the mo'on’s sub—
stance is so heated and when the sun's ms
are withdrawn it'rapidly cools,- eausing the
, fading away of the red color'when in the
shadow of the earth. .If his hypothesis is
correct, Mr. Williams believes that the sur-
face temperatureof the bright side of the
moon must be about.600 degrees. Of course
the dark side must be intensely cold, so
quickly does the heat pass into space after
the suu disappears. Onthe whole, the moon
must be an uncomfortable world.
“What became of Gustavus Adolphus, Mr.

of the class assembled one morning for reci-
tation. Holwbrthy rose slowly; saying,
softo coca, to his right-hand neighbor, "What

“Find out down there, same of you,” said
Holworthy, anxiously, as he looked toward
