LIFE! jaily Examinet. Youth and Age. When I was young! Ah, woeful when! | Ah, for the change ‘twixt now and then ! |This breathing horse was not built with hands, This body. that does me grievous wrong, O’er aery clifls and glittering sands How lightly then it flashed along ! Like those trim skiffs, unknown of yore, 1On winding lakes and rivers wide ; That no aid of sail or car, That fear no state of wind or tide! Nanght cared this bedy for wind or weather When Youth and I lived in’t together. Flowers are lovely, Love is flower-like, Friendship is a sheltering tree, 0, the joys that came down shower-like, Of Friendship, Love and Liberty, ire I was old! Ere I was old? ah, mourniul ere, Which tells me, Youth’s no longer here ! O! Youth? for years so many and sweet, "Tis known that thou and I were one— WH think it but a fond conceit ; It cannot be that thon art gone! The vesper-bell hath not yet toil’d ; And thou wert aye a masker bold ! What strange disguise hast thou put on, To make believe that thou art gone ? I see these locks in silvery slips, This drooping gait, this alter’d size ; But springtide blossoms on thy lips, Ana tears take sunshine from thine eyes ! Life is but thovght ! so think I will, That youth and I are housemates still ! A Pickle Farm near Chicago. The ‘‘ Farmers’ Review” thus deseribe it:—‘* The mauuring of the ground for all the crops is done broadcast. Well rotted stable mannre and night-soil are the principal manures, The latter is precured from Chicago, where they are paid for taking it away. It is dumped in a pit as hauled through the season, and in wiuter, when the liquid portios has evaporated or leaked out to a great extent, it is drawn out aud spread upon the land. It is a very valuable ferti- lizer, and must be applied with judg- ment. Some of it is composted, aud in this form is less liable to be apolied too heavily. Plowing is dove in the spring only, the nature of the soi! being such that little is gained by fall plowing, and there is plenty of wor‘ for a large force about the pickle factory at harvest and pickle time. Clean cul- ture is insisted upon. Weeds are not allowed to share the wealth of the well prepared soil. At the time ot our visit about sixty men and boys were at work in the ovion fields. ‘They are paid fifty cents per day and boarded. The house accommodations being limited, a_ half dozen army teuts have been pitched in the yard ; and with a comfortable bed of hay and army blankets for cover, the ach- ing backs are rested. The men are well fed and are required to work industrious- ly, or the discharge is prompt. Hours of labor from half-past six in the morning until the same hour in the evening, with one hour's nooning. If the boys who read this will figure this out we think they will find the ouion rows one ‘oot apart on an acre, makes about eight miles of onions, The 40° acres wou'd make a continuous row 320 miles in length. Then, if they calculate the miles of cucumbers and peas they can arrive at an approximate understanding of the amount of labor and money it takes to run a big pickle farm.” <<a we Jewish Statistics. Statistics of the Jewish race, which have been prepared in Germany, place the total number of Jews now living in it at only 6,129,662. Of these more than five-sixths, 5,225,956, live in Europe, 402,996 in Africa, 182,847 iD Asia, 50,000 in Australia, and 307,862 in America. According to these figures there are more Jews in Roumania than in the whole of America, and nearly as many as there are in Africa. They num- ber in Roumania 400,000, and comprise 7.44 per cent. of the population, which is the largest percentage reported for any State. European Russia is next, with 2,552,594, or 3.57 per cent., and Ger- many next with 520,575, or 1.22 per cent. Great Britain and Ireland have only 68,300, or 20 per cent., and last on the list is Norway with 34. isiS Leapamal tamale An unusually interesting phenomenon was presented to the people of Emerson on the afternoon of August 16th.

VOL 9.—-N0O, 83, The Anglo-French Treaty. — The London “* Times” of the 19th, in an editorial article commenting on the statement of the Under Foreign Secre- tary, Sir Charles Dilke, in the Heuse of Commons yesterday, giving the Govern- ments reasons for not accepting the in- vitation of France to resume the nego- tions for a new commercial treaty says: ‘The greatest tradiug vation in the world has no need to approach France icrms, The end of the French commer- cial treaty will probably be the sigual for a new protectionist outery in this country. ‘The demand will not be yranted; but is certain that the nego- tiatious with Frattce must result in a serious curtailment of our trade with her. A good fifth part of her for- eign trade will be annihilated by her own act, and along with it the cordiality and good will which a profitable foreign trade does much to esiablish and maintain ” The Times adds :—‘‘ We understand that the point upon which the Frevch propos- als were unsatisfactory were that France insisted upon the abolition of ad valorem duties, and, according to the British view, refused to adopt specific duties which would be equivalent to them, or to even fully discuss all the points invelved.” Tu this connection it should be stated that the law recently passed by the French Chambers only authorized the Govern- ment to grant a prolongation of the ex- isting commercial treaty in the event of their being a fair prospect of a new one being arranged, aud as in con- sequence of the wide difference of of opinions in this case there did not appear to be such a prospect there was no object but to break off the nego- tiations. An official note published in Paris to-day, after stating that France had no option but to break off negotia- tions with England for a new commer- cial treaty, concludes as follows :—** We hope, nevertheless, that the disagreement is only temporary, and as_ there is ample time to treat before the expiration of the ‘old treaty in November, that a solution will be found of a nature to satisfy the interests of the two great countries who have equal reed of each other.” Oe It was only ten years betore he was Dictator on the Loire that Gambetta became a French citizen. He was natur- alized by a formal adoption of the French natiorality when about to start to prose- cute the law in Paris. He largely owes his success to a deyoted materval maiden aunt, “After receiving his license to prac- tice at law he wished to go to Paris. His father, deeming success there hopeless without mouey or interest, opposed this, when his aunt Jennie Massable, who had an annuity of about $500, said she would go to live in Paris, and give him a home. They took a house in the Quartier Latin. On Sundays Gambetta had his friends about him, who retain the picasantest re- collection of the old lady’s kindly ways shrewd sense, and savory dishes. Her death, in 1877. was a great grief to her nephew. Young ladies who dance themselves into a fever in strange houses will do wel! to make a note of the fate of a young Irish lady and an officer of the Forty- seventh British Regiment, who walked out of a window at a ball in Kingstown, Ireland, the other evening, fancying there was a balcony in frout of it, aud were in- stanily killed. A similar accident hap- pened toa lady tamed Pennefather, at Thomastown, about the same time. She walked ont of a window at Thomastown Castle, and fell thirty feet to the ground, but, strangely enough, escaped without any serious injury. a oe ee A man drove up at a terrific pace to the railroad station at Farwell, Mich., aud inquired for his wife. She had eloped with a neighbor, and was about to take a train for the East. ‘“* Thank goodness, I’m in time,” the husband cried, in great excitement. The bystanders anticipated a tragedy, and the wife cowered into a seat. ** Here’s your child,” he continued, preducing a little girl. ‘“ Reckon you forgot her in your hurry. Now you can get off as fast as you like.” Leaving the girl with the runaway pair, he drove away with his placidity entirely re- stored, «tes The triumph of the Republicans in the French general elections have been most imarked, Reactionaries of every shade ‘have been quietly ignored by the mass of cap in hand and beg her to come to - tion as compared with the uniform Vie PP gui Si j meet Trains from all points at Hunter River, for passengers to ee Gea gee. 77 c &|Seaside—seven miles.
