0? k . I 4 i; n" t The History or Postage Stamps. The introdiictlon of the postnl sys tem, ns it (it presont exists in all coun tries on the globe, has been credited to England, when, in 1840, covers nnd envelopes were devised to carry letters all over the kingdom at one penny the single rate. This plan was adopted through the exertions of Sir Rowland Hill, who has been aptly termed the "father of postage stamps." It now ap pears, however, that there is another aspirant for tho introduction of the stamp system. In Italy, as far back as 3818, lottcr sheets were prepared, duly stamped in the left lower corner, while letters were delivered by specially ap pointed carriers, on prepayment of tho money which tho stamp represented. Tho early stamp represented n courier on horseback, and was of three values: It was discontinued in 1830. Whether Italy or Great Britain first introduced postage stamps, other countries after wards began to avail themselves of this method for the prepayment of letters, although they did not move very promptly in the matter. oreat liritain enjoyea tne monopoly of stamps for three years ancT, though tho first stnmps were issued in 1840, she has made fewer changes in her stamps than any other country, and has suffered no change at all in the original design the portrait of Queen Victoria. In other countries, notably in our own, the Sandwich Islands and thoArgentino Republic, the honor of portraiture on tho stamps is usually distributed among various high public officers; but in Great liritain tho Queen nlono figures on her stamps, and not even the changes that thirty-live years have mndo In her face are shown on the national and colonial postage stamps. Tho next country to follow the ex ainplo of England is Itra.il. In 1812 a seiies of thrio stamps was issued, eon Msting simply ofl.irgo numerals denot ing the value and all printed in black. Then canio the cantons in Switzerland nnd Finland, with envclopos which to day aro very rare, and i-oon alter then: Uuvurin, Belgium, France, Hanover, New South Wales, Tuscany, Austria, British Guiana, Prussia, Saxony, Schles wlg Hnlestinc, Spain, Denmark, Italy, Olenhurg, Trinidad. Wurterabunr. and the United States. Other countries! ioi lowed in tne train, until at tno pres ent timo thoro is scarcelylany portion of tho globe, Inhabited by civilized people, which has not postage-stamps. St, Nicholas. MaTjIjUAUm: Glaus. M. do la Bas fic, a rich gentleman residing in his chateau in France, with tho assistance of a learned and ovpsrienced chemist, lias succeeded, after a long series of scientific experiments, during nearly six years,in discovering the processor miiKing maiieame glass, wnicii, instead of being brittle, is ns ductile as copper or iron. 8 implos of it have been pre sented to scientific institutions, and the news of this great discovery is spread ing rapidly In Franco, Prussia, England and America. M. do la Bastie, in order to sceiiro the benefit duo to long, per soverlng and successful efforts, is form ing a company, and has taken a patent right for his discovery. A largo build ing for tho manufacture of said glass has been commenced at a cost of $1525, 000. Tho building is 103 yards by 100 yards. In depth. It has been assured that utonsll, such as fry-pans, etc.. can bo used on a hot range, and will rosist the tiro just as well as iron or any other metal. Al-o, glnss chimneys for lamps and gas burners are made, and will not break. In fact, there is no limit to tho variety of articles whlc can uo iimuo ot malleable glass. Changes in Sim:m,in(!. Tho meet ing of tho American Philological Asso ciation, which met at Newport last summer, attracted to itself considera ble attention owing to the able discus sion entered into by several of the best informed members of tho Association, upon tho subject of changes in spelling in tho English language. Tho upshot of thn whole matter was tho appoint iiiontofacoinniitteo of six linguists to consider theiMibJoct and report upon It at tho mooting next year. Two mem bers of this committee, Messr-". Whit ney and Trumbull, hive tecently been appointed by the Governor of Connecti cut members on a "State t otnnii-Mon ti provide an amended orthography for public uh" Tho action of the Governor U very significant from the fact that Dr. Trumbull, who wm thn Pioildent of the Philological Conven tion, argued with great force for changes which were more Sweeping iluu.1 tho-o Noah Webster advocated. "With many ot thoidew adv.ihced by Dr. Trtininull, Mr. Whitney was in Jnll .sympithy. The other two iiiem bor. of tnj Connecticut ConimKsloii, Rev. Simuel Hart mill W. W. Powell, are alo in I'ivoi' of reform In tho Fng Uili orthography. Tho Comnii.v.!onors are to report the re.-ult of their labor at tho next oIou of tho Connecticut IjegMatuiejbut it remains to he seen wnemorino politicians will adopt tho recommendations which will, without aloubt, bo made by tho phllologcr.s.

Flax Culture as a Change for Land. As I have been raising flax for Reed for the past five yearn, I bare concluded iokIvh tho forming eotnmunltv the benefit of ray expe rience in this direction. The great marke'able crop of this State, and the one likely to be for sometime, is the wheat crop. My first object, therefore, is lo have my land, or a larpe portion of It, each year in such n condition as that it shall re turn to me the largest results In wheat. To do this I find that a po-tion of the (arm must ue Bummer miiowea or crmngeu Dy cultivat Injt upon it some crop other than wheat and and oats. My first plan was to summer fal low each season, but being informed by the Oil Company of Salem that wheat would turn out as well on fUx stubble bh oh sum mer fallow ground, I concluded to try the experiment, and taking a forty-acre field of old land I sowed one half of the same in the large flax seed (Bombay) and summer fal lowed the other Half. Immediately after the flax was harvested I put the whole Bold into fall wheat, and result was that the wheat from that portion of tho field which had been in flax, turned out as well as that on the summer fallowed turn) and, It anything, better. Since tbnt time I change my land each year by sowing flax, ami Hud the result much more prolitable than summer fallowing. Take, tor Instance, n 100 acre field. I con sider It worth & per acre to summer lllow laud woll. This 1C0 acre, then, would cost 5300 to summer fallow. The cist ol putting this 100 acres Into llix. Including ulowlmr. sonlnir, hurroniuir, cuttlmr, threshing, hmiT- nig. iVo . will not oxuel SU Dr Here, or A)u for the whole plce.

Deducting the cost of putting in the crop ($1)00) from this amount and we have JM&O. Now you must "dd to this $380 the coat of cummer fallow (300) and we have ffiSO as the net result Irom our laud. and the same nil reailv to be plowed and BOWbd iu wheat, with n certainty thattbe wheat crop will be as large as if this land had been summer fallowed. As between summer fallow and flax rais ing, the object being the preparation of land lor large yields of wheat, I consider the flax sowing much more profitable than the sum mer fallow. Thomas Rulakd. Iilnn County, November 6, 1875. BIckncll three years to produce this wonder, and cost a great deal of pains nnd labor, braidlntr the wool nnd tying it over the sheep's back. The fibres of this wool are probably the longest over grown before or since, being about three feet in length. It was estimnted by good Judges that the fleece would weigh from forty to fifty pounds. The sheep was finally sold ton showman and brought tho owner the nice little sum of five hundred dollars. HARVEST. With throbbing heart nnd tearlfal eye I watched the Springtime fleeting by. I saw the snowdroo at its birth Felled, by spears of rain, to cartb. The iris burst, her emerald sheath, And show the amethyst beneath, The painted tulip fade and close Before the glory of the rose ; And now, down fields of sunburnt grass I see the withering roe leaves pass; And, night by night, and day by day, The life of Summer ebbs away. I see the granaries overflow, The mellowing orchards bending low. 0 God 1 my heart In awe and fear Looks back U)on Thy perfect year. Thy bonnty covers all the lands; 1 lift in prayer my empty hands. Of all the Summer of mv life My harvest is but sin and strife. Oh! could these tears, like April rain, Make moist my heart's hard soil again. And stir the seeds which thou didst sow, Ob ! never should they cease to flow. Could prayer but melt Ibis ice away, Oh ! never would 1 cease to pray, Till Thou in mercy, Lord, didst bring Into my scut a second Spring. Oh! then what rich reward and snoet To lay its harvest at Thy Jaet ! Good Woitll. Itemlttanrcs. Money due the Fakmeii can bo paid to tho State Agent at Portland, Mr. A.

A tiiiuii liny oiiivu mill iiiiiuua, uuti What a Good Chop Does.---In a re cent article in the London Times, Mr. James Caird, after showing that the British harvest of 1875 is deficient. gives some figures showing the effect in Groat Britain ofaplontiful hardest in 1874: Tho benefit to the consumers In this country of a good harvest, can now he definitely stated by tho realized result of that of 1875. This is the only coun try in which foreign corn can always meet with a market, and in a year sucu us tno past, me aounuanco or an foreign countries found this the onlv outlet. Tho weight of foreign corn of every Kinu imported during tne last two harvest years lias varied extremely little, being iu round numbers 4,500,0l)U uius nun 4,tui,uuii tons respectively. Tho cost of this in 187.1-4 was 54,01)0, 000, and in 1874 5, 45.000,000; the largor supply of the past year thus cost ing about 0.000,000 less than the some what smaller import of tho previous yuur. in uus uiiierenco must Do aim ed a considerable saying both in the quantity and price of foreign potatoes imported. When wo add the saving in the cost of the homo supply of corn, tho total gain to tho British consumers from tho fine harvest of 1874 can not huvo boon less than 20,000,000. How Much Hems Eat. The Prai rie Ihrtner says; .Wo havo before us the record of an experiment made in January, 18(i!, bearing on this subject. A tloek of forty-live grown chickens a few of them lull Br.thmas, tho others half-bloods were allowed all the corn they could eat. They were fed from a hnnner .so arranirod that coin w.w i th in their reach all the- time, care being taken that none ofit should be carried oil' by rats or mice or other iutiiulcrs In oightoou days the Hock atuJJl pounds of shelled corn, or nn'Wni-.Vn of eight pounds per day for tho forty- Mi uiiiuuuiis. m uus r.ne, one cnicKen would eat 0.178 of a pound por day.

The plashing breakers on the beach seem to the llteniiiK ear To wail a oft sweet plaintive dirge for tho depArifnttyear; The yellow leaves, whtrlM o'er tho rath by sharp Autumn liree.e. In eddying clouds are falling fast rrom all the rustling trues. The frort-beads sparkle on the grass, bright in the cumy tuwn; The matelest thrush his lonely meal seeks on thn rectory lawn; The lanruatinus Vins to show ber white and roseate flowers 9ure token that have fled at last tho Sum mer's golden hours. ash Black berries on tho privet bang, the clusters red, Crowu'd with a scarlet diadem King Oak's majestic bead; The elms are orange, the queen beech Is rob ed in russet brown, And from the graceful pendent birch dun leaves come showering down. Close In the furze the linnet lies, the lark's stirtll voice is mute, No longer from the oherry-bough the black bird tunes his flute: The while throat and the nightingale to sun nier climes nave uown. . And on the berried holly-bough the red breast sings alone. Ab, sweet and solemn are the days that mark tne iiviuk vnar, Waking, like music, In the heart some slum bering memories dear Of times gone by, of friends long dead, of Uappv fleeting hours, When our fnud youth was one long dream of love aud Joy aud flower..
