Hill neighbors, the merchants of Philadel-
phia, deemed him a lucky man. Many of
them thought they could do as well as be, if
they only had the luck. But the great vol-
umes of his letters and papers, preserved in
a room in Girard College, show that his suc-
cess in business was not due, in any degree
whatever, to good fortune. Let a messy
making generation take note, that Gil-std
principles inevitably produce Girard results-
The grand, the fundamental secret of his suc-

had a personal, familiar knowledge of the
ports with which he traded, the commodit-
ies in which he dealt, the vehicles in which
they were carried, the dangers to'whicli they
were liable, and the various kinds of men
through whom he acted. He observed eve-
rything, and forgot nothing. He had done
everything himself which he had occa-
sion to require others to do.

Receiving Company in Bed.
The old Frenchcustom of receiving com-
pany in bed is well depicted in the sketch
which follows. It would shock an Ameri-
can lady to carry out this habit, at least, of
Parisian fashionable life ;
‘90urconversation drifted along to‘ the old
French custom of receiving in bed. It was
seyhighly correct that the newly made wife.
of thexDuc do St. Simon went to bed, after
the early dinner of those days, in order to
receive her wedding visits. The Duchesse
do Maine, of the same date, used to have a
bed in the ball room at Sceaux, and to lie
(or half sit) there watching the, dancers. I
asked if there was not some difference in
dress between the-day and night occupation
of the bed. But Madame A. seemed to think
thereyvas very little. The custom was put
an endto by the Revolution ;- but one or
twogréat ladies. preserved the habit until
their death. Madame A. had often seen
Madame de, Villette receiving in bed ; she
always were white; gloves, which Madame
A. imagined was the only difference be-
tween the toilet of day and night. Madame
do Villette was . the adopted daughter .qf
Voltaire, and assuch all the daringinunovu-
torsupen the ancient mode of thought and
behavior came to see her and pay her their
respects. She was also the widow of the
Marquis de Villette, and as such she received
the homage.“ the ladies , and gentlemenbf
the ancient regime. Altogether her weekly
receptions must have been very amusing,
from Madame A.’s account. The old. mar-
quise lay in bed; around her sat the com-
pany ; and at the crisis of the visit she woud '
desire her femme do chambre to hand round
the heart of Voltaire, which he had be—
queathed to her, and which she preserved in
a little golden case. Then she would begin
and tell anecdbtes of the great, man—great
to her, and with some justice; for he had
been travelling in the south of France, and
had stopped to pass the night in a friend’s
house, where he was very much struck by
the deep sadness on the face of a girl of sev-
enteen, one of his friend’s daughters, and on
inquiring the cause he found out that, in or-
der to increase the portions of the others.
this young woman was to be sent into a con-'
vent—a destination which she extremely
disliked. Voltaire saved her from it by
adopting her and promising to give a ‘dot’
sufficient to. give her a respectable marriage.
She had lived with him for some time at Fer?
pay before she became Marquise de Villette.”

' Humming Birds.
A LESSON ON THE CREATIVE WISDOM or GOD.
The Humming Birds are perhaps the most
remarkable examples in the world of the
machinery of flight. The power of poising
themselves in- the sin—remaining absolutely
stationary whilst they search the blossoms
It is a power accordingly which is enjoyed
by them in the highest perfection. When
they intend progressive flight, it is effected
with such velocity as to elude the eye. The
action of the wing in all these cases islar too
rapid to enable the observer to detect the ex.
act difference between that kind of motion
for insects-is a power essential to their life. '

which keeps the bird at absolute rest in the
air, and that which carries it along with such
immense velocity. But there can be no
doubt that the change is one full stroke, more
slow,but delivered perpendicularly. This
corresponds with the account given by so ,
accurate an observer as Mr. Gould. He
says: “When poised before any object, this
action of the wing is so rapidly performed
stroke, and a hazy semicircle of indistinct-
ness on each side of the bird is all that is
perceptible.” There is another fact mention-
ed by those who have watched their move-
ments most closely which corresponds with
the explanation already given—viz: that the ‘
axis of the Humming Bird’s body wLen hov— I
ering is always highly inclined, so much so
as to appear almost perpendicular in the air.
In other words the wing-stroke, instead of"
being delivered perpendicularly downwards,
which would infallibly carry the body on-
wards, is delivered at such an angle forward
as to bring to an exact balance the upward,
the downward, and the forward forces which
bear upon the body of the bird ! Mi. Dar-
win says, “when hovering by a flower, the
tail is constanly shut and expanded like a
fan, the body being kept in a nearly vertical
position.” Mr. Wallace, another accurate ob-
server, describes tlic Humming Birds as “bal-
aucing themselves vertically in the air.”

The Secrets of the Deep.
What has become of the innumerable
bones and teeth and scales of fishes that, for
all the years gone by, have died in the bread 5
Atlantic? Where are the’re‘mafns of the _
many ships that have been swallowed up by
its waves? Where the gravel heaps left\be-
hind by the icebergs that have been melted :
in floating down from the .polar seas ?—
Where also the substances drifted across by
the Gulf Stream and other currents that
traverse the ocean ? Nothing—not one soli- '
tary indication of all these, but in their place
an impalpable, tenacious mud, everywhere
extending, and make up little particles of
carbonate of lime secreted by countless myr-
iads of animalcules, the food perhaps of the
whale and fishes'of the surface, but more
probably the sole inhabitants of those great
depths which other animals more highly or-
ganized would in vain attempt to penetrate.
Truly may we say that the secrets of the
deep are mysterious and grand, and that the
search after them repays the labor of investi-
gation. By the investigation of modern ob-
servers we find'laid open for our observation
the great valley of the Atlantic, descending,
by a succession of broad terraces and step-
like cliffs, to a gully or ravine 70,000 feet be-
low the high ridges of the Andes and Himi-
hiya Mountains. Like a vast ainpitlieatre,
their terraces appear to surround accntral
arena comparatively small. On one principal
upper floor, ten to fifteen thousand feet be-
low the present seu level, We have discover-
ed the inhabitants, and already all trace of
our world above is lost; all high forms of
organic life are absent ; and nothing remains
but skeletons of~the simplest animals, of
which it may almost be said that but one or
two specific forms can be determined—cer-
tainly nine tenths of the solid material con-
sisting of the remains of one species only.
What may be expected when the deeper lev-
els are dredged, and we bring up the mate-
rial of which they consist? - What will be
the direction of the line of deepest depres-
sion, and how will it agree with the adja-
cent line of greatest elevation? What will
be the inhabitants of that part of the ocean
bottom fully double the depth concerning
which we have only very recently obtained
information, where the pressure of the water
is nearly seven tons to the square inch of
surface, and where each cubic foot of water
probably occupies less space by one hundred _
cubic inches than it would do if lifted to the
surface, owing to the superincumhent col‘
umn of water resting upon it ? These are
queries yet unanswered, but to many, it not
to all of them we may expect to receive sat-
isfactory answers before very long. The
facts that remain to be determined are hard-.
1y more difficult to make out than those we
have already mastered; and the investiga-
tions, when once fairly set on feet will proba-
bly soon leave little to be desired. The
soundings that formerly could not be attemp-
ted, except in the calmcst weather, and with
the certainty of half a day’s severe and in-
cessant labor, are now completed, not only
in ordinary weather, but even in a fresh
breeze and disturbed. sea, in a couple of
hours; and whilst according to former
;methods there was more probability of 8001's
mous error than of accuracy, the result is
