At the recent meeting of Engiteers' Nearly every farmer goes to the near held in Moutreal, Mr: Sandford Fleming est village to trade, visit a mechanic, or

proposition with a view to reguliting ouce a week, He often takes a load to the variation of time on this continent.|market but he rarely takes one hottie. The European countries are compara- | He can, with very little trouble, hauls

its capital. But the United States and Canada cover too much longitude to work by such a rule, and hitherto we have had no rule of uu-formity. Each town has its own time determined direct from the sun and each considerable railway run- ning east and west is divided into sections which adopt the time of diferent centres. Mr. Fleming’s proposition was simply to divide the cotintry into sections whose time would be exactly an hout apart and have all places ‘within those sections uniform. Any one passibg from ove section into another would find his watch just one hour astray add would not be perplexed by having to calculate a differ- ent number of minutes of difference in each place visited. The proposition is beng considered: eA ee

M arriage.

Young people marry their opposites in temperament and general character, and such marriages are generally good ones, They do it instinctively. The young man does not say, ‘*My black eyes re- quire to be wed with blue, and my over- vehemence requires to be a little modified with dulness and reserve.” When these opposites come together to be wed they do not know it, but each thinks the other just like himself. Olc people never marry their opposites ; they marry their similars and from calculation. Each of these two arrangeinents 1s very proper. In their long journey these opposites will fall out by the way a great many times, and charm the other back again, and by- and-bye they will be agreed as to the place they will go to, and the road they will go by, and both become reconciled. The man will be nobler and larger for being associated with so much humanity unlike himsejf, and she will be a nobler woman for having manhood beside her, that seeks to correct her deficiencies and supply her with what she lacks, if the diversity be not too great, and if there be real generosity and love in their hearts to begin with. The old bridegroom, having a much shorter journey to make, must associate himself with one like him- self. A perfect and complete marriage is, perhaps, as rare as perfect personal beauty. Men and women are married fractionally, now a small fraction, then a large fraction. Very few are married totally, and they only, I think, after some forty or fifty years of gradual approach and experiment. Sucha large and sweet fruit is a complete marriage, that it needs a very long summer to ripen in and then a long winter to mellow and season. But a real, happy marriage of love and judgment between a noble man and woman is one of the things so very hand- some that if, the sun were as the Greek poets failed, a god, he might stop the world in order to feast his eyes with such a spectacle.— Theodore Parker.

No Horseshoes.

The argument against horseshoes seemed to me so strong, and the con- venience of doing without them so great, that I resolved to try the experiment. Accordingly, when my pony’s shoes were worn out,I had them removed, and gave hima month’s rest at grass, with an occasional drive of a mile or two on the high-road while his hoofs were hardening. The result, at first, seemed doubtful. The hoof was a thin shel, and kept chipping away, until it had worn down below the holes of the nails by which the shoes had been fastened. After this, the hoof grew thick and hard, quite unlike what it had been be- fore. I pow put the pony to full work, and he stands it well. He is more sure- footed; nis tread is almost noiseless ; and his hoofs are in no danger from the rough hauds of the farrier; and the change altogether has been a clear gain, without anythiog to set off against it. The pony was between four and five years old, and had been regularly shod up to the present year. He now goes better without shoes than he ever did with them; and without shoes he will cortinue to go so long as he remains in my possession,

The use of horseshoes is asin; they are unnecessary, and ‘‘ their results are purely evil ;’ they torture the animal and shorten his life ; and the sin carries along with it the curse of being a continual source of worry and expense to his owner, ‘* Fash- ion” cannot plead effectually in their favor, as they detract from action, activity, smart- ness and speed. But then, perhars, “fashion” demands clatter; there is no accounting for taste.

The bearing-rein would be still less need- ed for a horse which, having no pains in his feet, would not be shifting about, and put- ting himself into slouching postures at every moment in order to relieve them.— Horses and Roads.

‘benefit to his land. ~ Most village people make no use of the ashes produced in their stoves or of the bones taken from the meat they consume. Scareely any brewer has any use for the hops that have been boiled in his vats, and the “black- smith hardly ever saves the elippings he takes from the feet of korses, All these materials make excelleit manure. ‘A barrel of shavings cut from the ‘hoofs of horses contains more ammonia, than i# contained in a load of stable maniire, Applied to land without preparation tley might give uo immediate results, but they would become decomposed in time, aud crops of all kinds would derive benefit from them. They may be so tre

that they would produce immediate ‘re* sults. By covering them with fresh horse mauure they will decompose very ‘rapid- ly. They may also be leached in-a bar+ rel and the water that covered them drawn off and applied to plants. Water jin which pieces of horns and hoofs have ‘been scaked is an excellent mauure for plants that require forcing. It stimu- the growth of tomatoes, rose bushes and house plants very rapidly, aud emits the offensive odors. A vast amount of fer- tilizing material is wasted in towns that farmers could obtain the benefit of with very little trouble-—Chicago Times.

Of course the commer- cial metropolis will be equal to the occa- sion. As in the case of the lamentable St. John fire, she will magnanimously put her hand in her pocket; but Grir hopes she will not, as in that instance, forget to take it out again.

An Army of Monkeys.

Some sailors belonging to a vessel anchor- ed near Colombo, while ashore, tried toe capture a monkey. As soon as they put hands on him he gave a series of yells, when, as if by megic, every tree swarmed with in- dignant monkeys. An order to make for the boat was promptly obeyed. When the monkeys saw their enemy on a full retreat they formed in a solid body and followed hurtiedly in their wake. Sticks, stone and every available missile were hurle furiously at the heads at the flying sailors, In vain did they drop their prize, hoping that it might pacify their enraged pursuers. it was not so; only one dropped out of the ranks to gather im its hairy embrace the unoffending object of the fray, while the others rushed on more frantically than ever. Ceaching the boat they had no time to jump in, but shoved her off from the shore clinging to the gunwales and crawling in only when some distance had been placed between them andthe implacable: foe. When they had arrived at a safe distance to lie, they rested on their oars and curiously scanned the infuriated army on the beach; There appeared to be thousands of them running up and down in wild confusion,and hurling stones far out into the water in the direction of the boat.
