International diAtinc- tions are entirely obliterated s0. far as the ordinary payment of postageoncor- respondence is concerned, amf after the 1st of February next, either Written 01 printed correspondence from either coun- try is to be delivered free of extea, charge, and o. common rate of postage to be paicl precisely as if both countries were under the same same Governmeut, A great simplification is also effected, and an amount of needless work pre- vented by the introduction of the system, which permits each country to retain all the money it collects on postage, it being urged that the difference between the amount of the accounts of the two countriea Wag really very trifling, and not worth the trouble of chionicling which it occasioned. Other provisions of the arrangements are that each coun- try shall carrrthe domestic mails of the other through its territory free of charge by its usual mail routes, and it is under- stood that an international money order exchange shall be brought into operation as SOOn as possible. The .following are the arrangements agreed upon, to be car- ried into effect on the 1st of February, 1875, or as soon thereafter as the neces- sary measures can be perfected for put- ting them into operation : First—The- unification of the postal systems of the two countries in respect to correspondence exchanged between them, each country to forward and de- liver free of charge, correspondence of all kinds, written and printed, received from the other, which correspemdence must in an cases be prepaid at the es- tablished domestic rates of the country of origin. Second—Each country will transmit the- domestic mails of the other in closed pouches through its territory, free of charge, by its ordinary mail routes. Third—No account shall be kept be- tween the Post Office Department of the two countries in regard to international correspondence of any kind exchanged betweenthem, each department retain- ing to its exclasive-use all the postage A colkcts on. mail matter sent to the other for delivery. Fourth—ft is understood to be the de- sire and iatention of, our respective Post -office Departments that the pro- visions of this agreement shall extend to an international money order exchange as soon as possible. • Fifth—The provisions of this agree- ment, as far as it relates to the tate of letter postage. will be 'carried into effect on the 1st of February, 1875. Sixth—All provisions Of the existing Postal Convention inconsistent with this arrangement are hereby abrogated. Seventh—Formal articles ernbod ying the provisions of this agreement shall ° Cc prepared for execution: as soon as pos-, ible. efeb • aw Mind and Body. Whatever mind may be, an outgrowth of the body or a thought of God, still As health., and in a certain sense, its very existence depend, upon laws similar and every way analogous to those that deter- mine bodily healtb and existence. The mind or spirit of man, derived' at first from the breath of God, is no dmilit "part and parcel" of the Divine Being. The mind moulds the body after its like- ness ; a slow, moderate intellect bas a slow, heavy casing ; a quick, bright in- tellect is connected With a lithe,- elastic tissue; a• joyous spirit gleams frem every line of its accompanying coura tenance, while the peevish, fretful one frowns out in every wrinkle, and the calm, trusting one sits serene upon a placid brow. Ilene°, it seems certain the clay image, man, could not have been formed in the "likeness of God" unless the informing spirit that gave it vitality was part of the Divine essence. But is every new human being an en- titely distinct, separate creation, or can bodies propagate spirit—mind? Why are there corporal, family resemblonces, • and do these bodily likenesses always or generally indicate spiritual resemblances? If the mind is a something that dwells wholly in the brain., there seems no pos- sible solution to these duestions. But if the mind be a subtle element pervad- ing the physical organization more or less completely, while having its seat or focus in the bra' in, then there seems a • path out of the tangle. One person, by practice and determination, forces a considerable portion of his brain into his legs .-and feet, becoming thereby a fine dancer; another directs the brain -power to the arms and hands with a view to becoming a practical musician, and no one has watched the hands of an expert pianist without being convinced tliat brain really flashed in every finger-tip. The mind, thus pervading every tissue and particle of the living organism is communicable from parent to child, and the mixed mental traits of the parents form' the new individual. —.Phrenological -- How to Secure Good Sleep. Lord Kinnard, in the course of a long letter to a contemporary regarding the ventilation of dwelling houses, says : .tieople imagine that as 'foul air is light it is only necessary to open a hole in the ceiling or open a window at the top to allow it to escape, and. are surprised when these openings are closed by the inmates to feel cold air heating down on their heads. The fact is that the foul air emitted from the lungs of the oceu- pants or a room ascends while warm, but wha cold it falls to .the ground. Any one taking a laddee and going to the top of a room ',Where a number of people are sitting would find the vitiated air un-, bearable. A bird could not live lona in • it. Where there is a fire -place in a room the feel air first ascends, and then When it gets cold descends, and is then drawn up the chimney, so that a person sitting near the fire -place inhales this bad air. The remedy is to fake off the vitiated air at the ceiling by a syphon acting on the reverse system of a water' syphon. Where there is no hr place in -a room the case is seiious indeed. We found that a bird placed on the floor of such a room, where two people slept, Was dead in the morning. Were not our ancestors wise in having high bedsteads, and they are higher than the iron bedsteads now commonly afsecl. "Shakedowns" are therefore most injurious to health. The great diffxculty.in,ventilation.:is tcf. -make the air move. One plan may be seen carried_ out on a large scale in the Houses of Parliament. A huge furnace at the top of the house, kept constantly burn- ing, draws its life from the houses, lib- raries, dining -room, tea rooms, commit- tee -rooms, and kitchen of the Palace of Westminster, and such is its power that burnt pieces of paper have been drawn from the Victoria Station to the Palac3. The real difficulty is the supplying of fresh air to fill up the VaCUalni which in our dwellings is drawn from the, window sashes, and doors, and keyholes. Oysters. Our bivalve, however, does not spawn; after the manner of mollusks generally.' It is, in its own way, vivaporous. it/ does emit eggs; but, at the proper time, sends forth its young alive. The eggs are dislodged. from the ovaries and com- mitted to the nursing care of die gill and mantel. At first, each 'egg seems to be inclosed in t cal side. It is of a yellow- ish cblor but, as incubation or de- • velopemen't progresses, the color changes, • first to grey, then to` a brown, after- wards to a violet. This is a sign tha.t the time of - eviction is at hand ; for nature now issues her writ to that effect. -And wonderful little. beiugs they are when the writ arrives to vacate the homestead; for whole troops . of_ them can go gracefully, and without jostling, through the maziest evolutions in that tiniest sphere—a- drop of water. As cited by F. W. Fellowes, in the American _Naturalist, says M. Davaine : "Noth- ing is -more curious than to see, under microscope, these little mollusks travel in a drop of water in vast numbers mu- • tually avoiding one another, crossing each other's tracks in every direction with wonderful rapidity, neyeretouching and never meeting." The went oyster has indeed a prodigious family to turn out upon the world. ,But evlien: this time does come, though 'winter be near, her actions are summary,!, and the wee bairns are every one ordered from home. They are spit forth, or ejected from the shell. • Filled with water, the valves are suddenly snapped together. Every snap emits a small whitish cloud. Though a little. of the milky fluid be in it, this whitish cloud is composed chiefly of the tiny fry, for inclividnally they are almost invisible. Indeed, who shall count the oyster's offspring! Science, by her own. methods, has made the computation, and she gives us the astounding assurance that a single oyster during one spawning season emits 2,000,000 embryos !—Popu- lar Science Honthly."-- : About Sick Animals. Nearly all ;ick animals become so by improper .feeding, in the first. place. Nine cases out of ten digestion is wrong. Charcoal is the most efficient and rapid corrective. It will cure in a majority of re - cases; if properly administered. An ex- 0' ample of its use : The hired man came in eD with the intelligence that one of the finest cows was very sick, and a kind I n white sugar and One. tablespoonful of saltpetre. Boil the brine, and when it is cold strain carefully. Make your butter into rolls, and wrap each roll separately. in a clean, white muslin cloth, tying up with a 'thing, Place a large jar full, weight the butter down, and pour Over the brine until -all is submerged. This will keep really good butter perfectly sweet and iresh for a whole year. Be carefultonot put upon ice butter that you wish to keep for any length.�f time. In summer, when the heat will not ad- mit of butter being made into rolls, pack closely in small jars, and using the same brine allow it to cover the butter to the depth of at least four inches. This ex- cludes the air and answers very nearly as well as the first method suggested." (2) STIAOHS J000S neighbor proposed the • usnal drugs and. poisons. The owner beingiIl, and un- able' to examine the cow, concluded that the trouble carne from overeating, and or- dered a teacupful of pulverized charcoal given in water. It was mixed, placed in a junk bottle, the head held upward, and the water and chatceal poured down- ward. -In five • .minutes improvement was visible, and a few hours tbe animal was, in the pasture -quietly eating grass, Another instance of equal success occur- red with., a young heifer which hacl be- comebadly bloated by eating green ap, plea after a hard wind. The . bloat was so severe that the sides Were almost as hard aa a barrel. The old. retnedy, saler- .atus, was tried- for correcting the acidity. But the attempt to put it down always caused coughirw; and. it did little good. Half a teacupful of fresh powdered char- coal was given. • In six hours all appear- ance of the bloat had goee, and the heif: er was well. -e -Live A9tock Journal. Attend to Cows' Udders in Early Winter. A writer in the lei -mow Farmer iet- tem the following timely caution in re- gard to com's uddere, in drying them off. As my cows are f` drying off" at this season of the year, I find their udders re- qnire frequent attention.- I have failed to notice, in the agricultural journals any complaint of such trouble, but in my own dairy, and particularly with such. cow's as. are in the highest condition, clotted milk is very apt to collect itt one or perhaps all the' quarters -of the bag after milking has been discontinued, and sometimes even much later, after I have supposed - the flow of7tnilk to be arrested and the bag quite dry. As this secretion gees on, unless the elated ma.tter is with- ; drawn, the teat and udder become mOre and more distended, inflammation en- sues and putrefaction Of the contents sets in. - I make no question butt that neglect of this matter is the cause of per- manent mischief t� the udder, and par- ticularly Of that contracted condition ,of the muscles which regulate the passage of Milk from the bag into the teat, a con- 1 ditiOn discovered -not tmfrequently, au d with surprise as well as regret, when cows come into milk m the - spring and which ever after renders the milking of such cows very irksome. - Protecting Trees from Mice. Since the sad havoc made by mice in our apple and pear orchards several years ago, we have adopted the plan of placing around each tree a covering of tarred paper late in the autumn. This has proved entirely successful, and as it costs but little for niaterial or labor, we ven- • ture to recommend it. The cylinder of paper should_ be brought close to the ground, and extend high enough to pro- thet the tree for a foot or more above, and the cord holding it in place should be securely tied with a •loop knot. Trees that are liable to he covered by deep snows must be protected for more than one foot, as we have had trees from which the hark was gnawed three feet above the ground, not only the trunk being 'denuded, but many of the limbs. Mace attack almost every kind of bush, shrub, and tree. The bitter barks of the peach and cherry appear t15, be fully as acceptable as those of the pear or plum. Where mice prevail, it will not do to de- pend upon any of the usual expedients, such as banking trees with earth or manure, or treading down the snow in winter. Reliance upon these has cost us more than 100 of our choicest fruit trees. The tarred paper coverings must be re- newed fresh each year, as they_ become so tender or brittle that they cannot well be used a 'second time.—Boston Journal of Chemistry. - • BRINE FOR PRESERVING BUTTER.— The Dutchess _fa?-raer says : 1' To three gallons Of brine strong enough to bear an egg add a quarter of a pound of nide • (t) rae. 0 0 CD 0 —o rri 0 N.
