THE HOME CUSTOM FOR McLEANI & KEITH'S X, XX, & XXX ALES AND PORTERS Brandy, Gin, Whiskey and Old Tom, has so considerably ii\creased from all sources, at home and abroad, as to merit the warmest thanks, first, and secondly to assure them their efforts to produce a superior article have not been in vain. This triumph establishes the fact, viz : that the PRODUCED AT THE CALEDONIA BREWEflY, nm^wkK M. s BD TAKE PRECEDENCE OF ANYTHING IN THE PROVINCES.

The New Qttle in Catholic countries, by order of Pope Gregory XIII. , was adopted in 1582, commanding to reckon the 6th of October as the 16th, thus omitting 10 days. Protestant countries adopted this rule in 1762, calling the 8rd of September the 14th, omitting 11 nominal days. Russia still adheres to the old style, the dilference from the new being now 12 days. Up to 1762, the year was held to begin in England with the 26th of March ; 1761 did so, but 1762 began January 1, by Act of Parliament, agreeably to the Gregorian or Roman Catholic Calen> d«r, which is the true time, with only an error of one day in about 8,000 years.

In the course of this revolution the inhabitants of every clime experience, though at diflferent times, a variety of seasons. Spring, summer, autumn, and winter, fol- low each other in constant succession. In those countries which lie in the southern hemisphere November, December and January are the summer months, while in the northern heminphere, where we reside, these are our months of winter, when the weather is coldest, and the days shortest. In the northern and southern hemispheres the seasons are opposite to each other. During six months, from March 21 to Sept. 23, the sun shines without intermission on the north pole^ so that there is no night there during all that interval, while the south pole is all this time enveloped in darkness. From Sept. to March the south pole enjoys the solar light, while the north, in its turn, is deprived of the sun and left in darkness. The sun is at different distances from the earth at dif- ferent periods of the year, owing to the earth's moving in an elliptical orbit ; but it is not upon this circumstance that the seasons depend. For on the 1st January we are more than three millions of miles nearer the sun than on the Ist July, when the heat of our summer is generally greatest.

Every farmer has a theory. Every sane mau performs all his business in accordance with some rules which satisfy his mind. A man may strike his horse, or break his plougfh, without following^, and indeed in opposition to theory ; but all that he does deliberately, and of his free will, he does be- i cause he is convinced of its practicability and lawfulness— because he has a good reason for it ; or he is no honest man. The Jarmer may affect to despise theory, and claim that he is a purely practical man ; but he is mistaken. For to suppose that a man can earry out the manifold affairs of a farm, through a whole year and through many years, without some mental basis for his oper- ations, is sheer nonsense. This mental basis is theory, and to take pride *' in freedom from theory" is to boast of inability to think. Practice is, like theory, good or bad. Good practice may be in part accidental and independ- ent of good theory ; but good theory, if it become active, must work itself out in good practice. Itaapractlce is the result of erroneous or imperfect want of theory. Bad theory can hardly fail to produce disadvantageous practice. BROWN BROTHERS & CO., Druggists.

The immense interval which lies between the orbits of Marl and Jupiter, led ast'-onomers to surmise that a planet of considerable magnitude might possibly exist somewhere within this limit. Be- tween the orbits of Mercury and Venus there is an interval of 31 millions of miles ; between those of Venus and the Earth, 27 mil- lions ; between those of the Earth and Mars 50 millions ; but be- tween the orbits of Mars and Jupiter there intervenes the immense iy- e of 34i) millions of miles.

Of the latter class the indications are various— so metiraes they consist in a broken fence bordered with an unbroken hedge of briers, ciders and thistles — at others, the yard, which has been a neat lawn with shady trees, mostly occupied with burdocks and nettles, bor- ! dering old decaying haaps of chips and pools of kitchen slops, and the drop- j Sings of cattle, and cut up by the wheels of carta into mud -holes of unknown i epth, until sounded in a dark evening by the unwary foot of a neighbor's wife or daughter. There is again an intermediate class— belonging partly to both the preceding—perhaps the largest class of all. Over these neatness and disorder seem to hold each a sort of doubtful jurisdiction— perhaps a neat picket fence in f^ont, has its counterpart in a decayed rail fence iu rear— a flower bed by the front door and a puddle of soap-Buds at the kitchen door, i DROWN BROTHERS & CO., Druggists, Ordnanoe Square, Halifox. ni --.- ■^* nville Street.

After a winter's diet on solid and generally f animal food,v,he human constitution requires the deterging operations offr^ vegetable and fruit diet ; and as a general rule no one can dispense Hitiil ■arely. Besides this, the natural appetite calls for it, and there are ifi fileaanres chat may be so safely and even beneficially indulged in. lu tf after part of winter and early spring, measures should be taken to Reroj eartp veg'^^ables of all kinds capable of early cultivation.

The most common Is to form a strong decoction in a tub or t)a enough hot water to cover it, and let it stand some days. If strong enoiff it will destroy plant lice, and otlier small ioKects which infest fruit trg It often fails for want of sutBMent strength. A mixture of a small quiin of starch in solution, will add to its efficacy without IncrcaHing in M\y'^ greo the danger to the trees. A mixture with it of a solution of soap ^ adds to its effect, but if tlie soap be strong, it proves in some cases injur| to the young foliage. Tobacco, being a vegetable poison, will not do injury, however strong it may be. Small trees may be bent oyft and dip into the solution ; it may be applied to larger trees by a showering syni Smoke from burning tobacco may be applied to planta by means fumigator.

The woil may be deepoi.cd by thoroughly undordraiuinif it. With no further workiujjf, save the operation of continued draining, ft will in time become deep and mellow. It does this from three causes » First, the drains allow the siirplua water to filter rapidly away throuf/h the sntl, in- stead of remaining a long time just below the burfacc, hardening, and lu a manner, puddling tlm soil. Second, if the soil is clayey, drying it by drainage instead of evaporation, caflses It to shrink or crack, thus tending to its pul- verization. And thirJ^ into the cracks thus formed, surface mould is washed, which not only keeps the c'ay from again uniting, but invites the roots of plants to follow the vegetable food thus supplied, thus increusingthe pulver ization until, in the course of time, it becomes equal to that of the drainage itself. A more rapid method of deepening the soil is by the use of the subsoil plough, or by deep eiiltuvo with any implement adapted to the purpose.

As already stated, they are nearly at the same distances from the sun, and per- form their revolutions nearly in the same periods ; their orbits are more eccentric, and have a much greater degree of inclination than those of the other planets ; and, what is very singular and unac- countable, their orbi/i cross each other. Whatever view we may take of thcbe anomalous orbs, there appears to us something inex- plicable, mysterious, and incomprehensible. We may, however, rest assured that their present state, whatever it may be, is in full accord- ance with the wisdom, rectitude, and benevolence of the Supreme Governor of the universe. 5 g •s m >.

The Tariff of Duties has been omitted as it will most probably be materially altered at the first meeting of Parliament at Ottawa for assimilating the Laws of the several provinces relating to the Tariff and Post Office into one general law applicable to all, and other necessary changes and measures consequent upon the Union. The Post Office matter is given as usual with the necessary corrections, and will remain as given until altered by the general law to be passed above alluded to. ."J rtetograpfaie CiMiiiieali, Cavds and Gasas^Bnimif Bttotil>»» 40^ ■■m** 1 (f R.

This river must always be interesting on account of its slides, booms, and distinctive race of lum- bermen, it is only seen, however, to its full advantage in the spring of the year, with high water, crowded with rafts. The group of buildings form a most picturesque object from every approach to the city, and can be seen at a great dis- tance. The Parliament Building forms the head of the square, and has more architectural pretensions than the Departmental Buildings; they are all in the Italian Gothic style, acknow- ledged at the present time as that best adapted to the require- ments of a northern climate, and are of stone found in the vicinity, which is of very fine quality, two colours r.re used, the principal part being e warm tint, set off with lighter dressings, there is no unnecessary ornamentation, but from the nature of the materials used, the building has a rich and ornate appearance due to the knowledge of the contractor in leaving the stories undressed, and thereby reflecting the light and giving a sparkling effect in the sun. The Parliament Building is about 475 feet in length, and irregular height ; the body of the building is about 40 feet high, with slanting roofs ; it contains the halls for the Senate and House of Commons, with numerous offices, behind which is the Li- brary, built in a circular form, capable of containing 300,000 volumes. The floors of this, as well as of the Departmental Buildings, are made of concrete, thus perfectly fire proof; an invention lately adopted in Europe. In the internal arrange- ment nothing appears to have been spared to make the build- ing as perfect as possible. The wants of the government and its officials have been most carefully studied. Great care has been given to heating, lighting and ventilation ; and although there are immense boilers for warming thoroughly the whole buildings, grates have been provided in every room. "When the grounds in front of the buildings are laid out in terrace^., with fountains, (&c„ and all is mpleted, the beauty of lUo situation, combined with the elegance of the buiMingi), will enable the capital of the Dominion of Canada to compare with any in the world. ,9> ■ I i I I I I f 6 I'i .

Reoistkation. — Letters fur reg'stry must bo posted hidf an hour previous to the closing of iho .Mail by wiiicli they are to be sent. The po.-jtage as well as the Registration (lo most Me jircptiiil. The registra- tion of a letter to any place in Nova Siotia, Rritish North America, or the United States is 10 cents; to the United Kingdom, 8.J cents, to Aus- tralia and all other places, when passing through the United Kingdom, 25 cents. Regiatnvtion is applicable to all descriptions of letters and parcels, whether they contain articles of value or not. Registration is not an absolute guarantee against the miscarriage or lose of a letter; but a registered letter can l)e traced when one unregistered cannot, and the posting and delivery or non-tlelivery can be proven. A registered letter is thus secured against many ot tiie casu ilties which, from incorrect address, forgetfulnes of the receiv.r, or otiier erroi', may ari'ect an un- registered letter against actual di.shunesty on t!ie part of the Post Office employees, a registered letter is incomparably more secure^han an un- i"egiste ed cue — an unregistered letter loaves no tiaco behind it, whilst passing in the great stream of ordionry correspondetice, though its pre- sence as a money latter, and the nature of its contents, are to any person accustomed to handle letters, as manifest, as though the letter had been singlevl out, and marked by the registered stamp. If the consequences were limited to the mere risk of the loss of the money so sent, the senders of money in unregistered letters might reasonably urge, that if they choose to encounter the risk, they are free to do so; but higher consid- erations are involved, and th:^ chance of loss to tl,i» careless remitter is really but the smallest part of the evil a«.«ociated with the practice. The department has gone to a great deal of trouble and expense to ensure as far as it is possible, the sure and safe transmission of money by mail — the safest mode of remitting is by money orders, — where there are no money order offices, the Reijistrntion system is available.* ♦ Attention ti> the abovt; romnrks by those who are in tlie liabit of send- ing money bv miiH is strouL'ly reeommeiirlod, and it is (urtlier sii;4^j,'estcd that letterfi containiiitj money sTiould invariably be secured witli tliu best wax, and not by wafer, mucilat,e, or seil-sealinj,^ envelope.

To be able to pay all claims, meet all expenses, and at the same time create such u Fund, shows the prosperous nature of the business, and the secure basis on which the Society rests. 90 PER CENT, of ^^^ profits are divided amongst the policy holders. The next Division of Pkofits will take place in 1869. £405,000 Sterling have been paid to the representatives of de- ceased assurers, t'ue value of which to the Widow and Fatherless can never he told' WHAT 13 LIFE ASSURANCE? It is the exercise of prudence. It secures independence and domestic happi- ness to the Widow and the Orphan. It affords to persons in everv class and in every situation in life, the means to rwoid much future mise.y in their families, and to render them independent oi public or private charity. Admitting the uncertainty of human life, it behoves every head of a ftiraily, as well as all who have others deT>endent on them for support, to consider t^e posi- tion which his family or dependents would be placed In, supposing he were to DIE to-morroio. The great advantage offered by LIFE AHSURANCE, is the certainty of the family of the deceased Assurer receiving a stated amount, even if h's death were to take place the moment after he had paid the first premium. Supposing a person insures his life for £600, he is placed in precisely the same position as if he h.ad deposited £500 in the Bank, /or the purposes of his family . The Directors of the " STAR" have decided to appoint Agents throughout the Provinces of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, who will receive a liberal remuneration for all business done by them. Applications, accompanied by testimonials, to be made to the Generai, Superintendent of the Nova Sco- tia Branch, who will be happy to afford every information. COUNCIL OF REFERENCE FOR HALIP\4.X, N.
