Seeing mi inquiry in regard lo build ing an ice-bouse, bronght lo mind the ;fact oi how few avail thomsolvcB of tlio greatest of nil luxuries in hot wenthpr, which is icb. I will now give yon n plnn of mv ico-hnuso from which nny ono can build who ctm ubo jv b.w runl linmmer. It has been built nboul leu years, nnd in nil sound yet, with tho excep tion of tho boards on tho infiido, which will want to bo replaced onco in ubout five or nix years. Tho size is eight by tnn outside, six feet hiirh. I took two- inch plank, twelve inches wide, for sills nnd plntcs, halved together at the corners. I used studs on tho inside, ' nnd boarded up and down outside. - Tho cracks should bo covered with batten?, lo prevent tho air striking the ice. Tho rafters should bo fivo or six inch stuff, boarded on tho inside, and tho spaco filled with either sawdust or refuso tnn bnrk. Tho inside should bo boarded the other way, to within a foot or so of tho plates, which should bo left until tho spneo is filled. I place poles or scantling in tho bottom nnd covdr with slabs, which will afford nil Ibo drainnge necessary. Tho door nhould nlwnys bo on tho north side. Tho cracks in tho north gablo-eud should bo left open for the purpose of -ventilation. I consider sawdust tho 'llcst to fill tho sides with, but tan-bark, turner's shavings, chaff, or straw will do. It is more work to fill an ico-houso ' the first year then it is over aftor that. I. like snow the best of anything to ,. pack in, always filling the cracks be tween tho cakes us solid as possible I hnvo tnkon out snow the last of sum mer just ns fresh as when it was put . in. Tho size of this houso may bo ob jected' to by some, but mino holds enough for a largo family, and also a ' dairy of twenty cows. I don't believe any dairyman who has had ice lo uso ono year would bo without it for ton times tho cost. Ono thing moro nbout tho houso. It should bo bnnked up at tho bottom, for nny circulation of air through tho ico will molt it as fast as walor poured throughit. Moore's Rural New Yorker. Farmers' Economy. Fannors talk a great denl about economy. I know . V - 11 il M - i ono man wno wm go uircu ranra uw. of his wav. over a bad road, to savo ! a few cents nt tho tollgato. Another who is so economical of blacksmith expenses, tl.nl instead of gciti.ifr a tiro J set at tho right time, will niuko it do n weok or two longer, nnd somo darl; night will bo found groping his way homo with thrco wheols and a rail to his wagon, whilo a horso or two aro unablo to loavo tho stablo on account of lamcncsa, resulting from a iniaun . derBlanding of good economy, as ap plied to tho fihoeing of hoi'ses. . Many 1 a man is so economical in tho mattor of boards for barns, stables and sheds that ho builds them every year of corn nnd hay. This may bo considered strange, building material, but what I etato is truo. If an animal is exposed to tho storms and cold of winter it will , tako ono half tho food it consumes to koop it riH warm as it would bo natur ally in a good comfortnblo stablo ; tho , other half will just keep it along. So tho half of tho grain and hay is used for making a stablo expensive build- - ing materials, but this is not tho econ omy, howover, that I would recom mend, nor that will pay heavy war ox- - iponscfl. Rural New Yorker. Preserve the Si.ors. English hus bandmen atlribnlo a most important - valuo to sink slops for manuring pur poses, nnd with good reason, for li quids of this description aro rich in fer tilizing properties, and in tho most Btiitablo condition for furnishing im mediate food for vcgotnblo life "With a very littlo outlay a suitablo recepta cle can bo mado for receiving thoso . house-slops, which aro allowod to go to waste by so many. Ono method rec ommended by a friend, is to set an oil cask on tho north sido of your houso under'tho spout, and cover it with a lid. A littlo chnrcoal thrown in onco a week will prevent all unploasant smells. From this tank tho wash can bo conveniently appliod ovory fow days , to cucumbers, melons, squashos, rasp berries, grape vinos, ko. Another plan pursued successfully, is to con duct tho slops into a vault whoro they will bo absorbed by muck, leaves and othor suitable ingredients of a com post heap. This is mado by digging a holo 2 or 3 feet deop, and 8 or 10 feet . square, laying up tho sides with stone or brick, laid in walor cement. If too expensive, firm clay slabs, or old tim- 'ber will answer for walling purposes. .A-layer of saw -dust, leaf, or muck, ',fthpu'ld,bo placod on tho bottom, and " absorbents added from timo to time as ethey aro'needed. Exchange. friend of oura in Amherst, Mass., has built a cistern at a littlo distance , from tha house, into which are con Tey&d ull tho ulops and drainago of tho house and stable, in order that they n'm'y b6 tts8d forOlizaris on hTs 'gnr don nnd lawn-rn wiB0,ccononiicnl,,nnd cleanly nrrangemont, as nil will rondily admit.

It is said by thoso who havo had exj o rioncc, that cutting hay for tho regu lar food of animals, makes a saving of ono quarter, somo say a Ihird of tho hay. If it savos ono eight, every farm or should hnvo ono nnd cut his hay. As Infallible Cvnn fok Dybkntehy.

Tur. Discoitn of thu Aon. -'-Tho great discord between tho head and tho heart, between intellect nnd faith, is the predominant characteristic of tho ago. Old forms of thought aro failing. "Wherever faith finds a foothold, tho intellect comes prying, doubting, nnd disturbing. -Tho ago .is ncusod of a suspense of failh, of infidelity, of materialism. But tho discord is not with infidels and materialists alono. It runs far back into tho very heart of the church. , This restless search, this unsatisfied longing, this hurrying dis cord, can havo but ono solution. Tho song that tho shepherd boy sings iu tho Saul of Robert Browning to tho disquieted king, is tho only music that can sootho tho troubled spirit of tho prcsont. Tho truth thero uttered is itfj only resting placo. Tlio strifo bc- twc(jn U)0 honrt nnd intellect cannot ceaso until the heart has learned to trust, with simplo faith, its own high est impulso and to crown it as divine. n lnUfjt j to tftko f grantc(i tlmt as tho sun shines with his glory, so tho heart loves and can .lovo only in his lovo.

They will bo issued in denominations of JSO.

As tho notes draw Interest from August 15th, persons making deposits subsequently to that dato must pay tho intorest accrued from date of noto to dato of deposit. I'artics depositing twenty-fivo thousand ilol lars and upwards for these notes at any. ono timo will bo allowed a commission of one-quar- , tors of ono per cent, wlilch will bo paid by the Treasury Department upon tho receipt of a bill ' for tho amount, certified to by tho officer with , , ... .. , I whom tho deposit was made.

It is a National Savings Hank, offering a higher rnto of interest than any other, and the best security. Any aavingB bank which pays its depositors in L". S. Notes, considers th.it it is paying in the best circulating medium of the It is equally convenient as a temporary or per manent investment. The mites can always be sold for within a fraction of their face and accu mulated interest, nnd aro the best security with banks as collaterals for discounts. Convertible into a 6per cent, 5-20 Gold Bond. In nddition to tho very liberal interest on the notes for tlireo years, this privilege of conversion is now worth aliout thrco per cent, per annum, for tho current rato for 5-20 lionds is not less titan nine per cent, premium, and beforo the war the premium on six per cent. U. S. Stocks was over twenty per cent. It will bo seen that tho actual profit on this loan, at tho present market rato, is not less than ten per cent, per annum. Its Exemption from State or Municipal Taxation, lint asldo from all tho ndvantnges we have onnmcratod, a special Act of Congress exempts alibomls awl Treasury Antes fromlocnlUuation. On the average this exemption is worth about two per cent, per annum., according to the rato of taxation in various parts of the conntry It is boliovotl that no securities offer so great Inducements to lenders as those issued bv the government. In all otherforms of indsbtcdneBS, ' tho faith or ability of private parties, or stool; companies, or separate communities, only, is pledged for payment, while the whole population of tho country is hold to secure the discharge of all obligations of tho United Statos. While tho government offers tho most liberal terms for its loans, it belirn h that tho very strongest appeal will be to the loyalty and patri otism of tho pooplo. Duplicato eortillcatos will be issued for all de posits. Tho party depositing must endorse up on the original certificate tlio denomination of notes required, and win therthev are to be issued in bank or pavablo to order.
