An Ancient May-Day Carol.
May, sweet May, again is come,
May, that frees the 'land from gloom;
Children, children, up and see
All her stores of jollityl
On the laughing hedgerow’s side
She hath spread her treasures wide;
She is in the grccnwood shade,
Where the nightingale hath made
Every branch and every tree
Ring with her sweet melody;
Hill and dale are May’s own treasures;
Youths rejoice! In sportive measures
Sing ye, join the chorus gay!
Hail this merry, merry May !
Up, then, children i we will go
Where the blooming r05es grow ;
In a joyful company
We the bursting flowers will see;
Up, your festal dress prepare!
Where gay hearts are meeting, there
May hath pleasures most inviting,
Heart and sight and ear delighting;
Listen to the birds’ sweet song,
Harkl how soft it floats along:
Conrtly dames! our pleasures share;
Never saw I May so fair :
Therefore, dancing will we go;
Youths rejoice, the flow’rets blow!
Sing ye, join the chorus gay 1
Hail this merry, merry May 1

Century.)]
New Booxs.-—From Dr. Brugsch's work
on Monumental Egypt, printed. in two vol-
umes and sold for twelve dollars, Francis H.
Underwood has edited and compiled "The
True Story of the Exodus of Israel,” which
Messrs. Lee 8: Shepard, Boston, issue in one
volume, and A. Sellcck sells for $1.50. Many
of the facts stated and inferences deduced
are from a study of the monuments of Egypt
the inscriptibns on some of which recently
translated, throw much light upon ancient
history. To give an idea of the contents of
the book, we give briefly some of its conclu-
sions, as follows:—Witteu language had its
origin in Egypt; The science of the anment
world and its art and architecture came from
Egypt; The Hebrews were originally nomad-
ic, and they owed their knowledge and
training in the arts of civilized life to Egypt.
ian masters; The idea of one God, the basis
of the Hebrewjaith, was known to various
Semitic tribes in the Arabian Desert long
befor the time of Abraham, and was cherished
by at least one Pharaoh (Amenhotep IV.) and
his descendants; The sacrifices, offerings of
first fruits and tithes, the circumcision, the
form of temples, including the Holy; of
Holies and the Shekinah, the use of incense,
the ceremonies, priestly dress, and other
concomitants of the Hebrew worship, were
derived from Eypt; The .Ten Command-
ments, in all their essential features, are
found among the answers made by the soul
after death before Osiris, the judge of all,
as set down in the CXXVth Chapter of the
Book of the Cead, a ritual dating back to the
time of the early dynasties of Pharaohs, and
keeping the seventh days as holy and the
prohibition of images are the sole new
precepts of Moses; The sacred literature of
the Hebrews is modelled, as to tone of
thought and style, upon the writings of the
Egyptians preserved in papyrus rolls and
temple inscriptions; The residence the
Hebrews is fixed, beyond dispute, in the
eastern portion of the Delta ; and the Exodus
was in a north-easterly route near the Medi-
terranean Sea ; Thdsraelites in their march
did not come near the Red Sea until they
came to the region of Sinai, some days after
the Egyptian army was drowned; There is
no mention of the Hebrews in Egyptian his—
tory or on the monuments, to distinguish
them from the other foreign people or
slaves.
Lee & Shepard, Boston, publish “The
Prodigious Adventures of Tartarin of Tarif—
scon," translated from the French of Al-
phonse Daudet. It is a satire after the style
of Don Quixote. The hero is a good natured
fool whom the people all make fun of, and
he goes to Africa to hunt lions. Some of
his adventuresare quite amusing. Paper 50
cents. Sold by A. Selleck.
“Our Political Parties” is the title of a
pamphlet of 84 pages, written by B. F. Tefft,
D. D., L. L. D., and published by Lee &.
Shepard, Boston. The author treats of
Washington as the Founder of the National
Party,” “Jefferson as the Organizer of the
State Rights or Provincial Party,” and
“Contests :of a Century between the Two.”
His “Conclusion" ends, very sensibly, as fol-
lows:—
“Go, then, Americans !—go sons of patri-
otic sires l—if you would perpetuate for ever
the full glory of the heavenly vision, go cast
your sufirages with that illustrious political
organization now known by its modern title
of REPUBLICAN, and honored throughout
the world for its deeds of valor in the sacred
cause of universal freedom ; which from
first to last, and in the face of all the dread-
ful treasons of the opposition party, has been
ever trulyNational, since it has in no exi-
geney failed, as it never willfifail, to stand by
the country in which it has planted the freest
and best of all the nations l”

Ex—Assistant Commissioner of Patents,
Wm. 11. Doolittle, who has been so long-
connected with the U. S. Patent Oflice, has
formed abusiness co-partucrship and pur—
poses doing a general Patent Business. His
Card will be found in our paper to—day and
we can vouch for both his thorough ability
and uprightness in every respect. Our friend
thus writes as :—
“After seven years service in the Patent
Office, during the last four years of which I
have held the positibn of Assistant Commis—
sioner, I have tendered my resignation to
take effect May 31st, 1880, and proposg
thereafter to engage in the general practice
of patent law before the Patent Oflice, the
United States Courts, and Congress. .
Especial attention will be given to inter-
ferences, and to the reissue of patents. On
and after June 1st, I shall he assocmled in
business with Mr. B. E. J. Ells, a patent at-
torney of this city, a gentleman of long ex-
perience in patent matters, and of high stand-
ing personally and professionally. All busl-‘

Glcaiiings from Real Life.
SATURDAY NIGHT.
or w.
"One sweetly solemn thought
Comes to,mc o'er and o’er;
Ec’n nearer my home to-day,
Than I’ve ever bcpn before.”
The week's work is done; have laid aside
the implements of toil for a short rest, and
now let us turn back and take a glance over
the events of the week which is so near its
end. What have we done, what have
we accomplished? Do we realize the short-
ness of time? Do we realize the fact as we
grow older, each week seems shorter than its
predecessor, and we are fast hastening to
that bourne from whence no traveller returns
—to that sure and inevitable goal, the tomb?
Let us lay aside for a few moments the world
and its cares while we contemplate and think
over things as they are. Each week brings
us nearer home; and where is home? "Herc
we have no continuing city"; we wander up
and down the earth, calling certain places
home—they are homes for the body, but
there is another home—for the soul, a home
which endureth ~ forever. Father, mother,
brothers and sisters, their work is done, they
have gone home to rest. We shall soon fol—
low. Shall we share the same home with
them,it is for us to choose. Many who start-
ed with us at the beginning of the week
have finished all earthly toil; they have laid
aside the implements with which they were
wont to earn their daily bread; they have
no'further use for they. Many others will
finish their work during the coming week. 0,
that we might all say when our earthly work
is done, “I have finished the work then gavest
me to do.” We all “have something to do,
a mission to perform.” It may not be much
but it is something. Maybe we know of
some erring brother or sister, that a kind
word might go far towards reclaiming from
the evil of their ways; by all means speak it,
it is the best kind of work. Daniel Webster
said on acertain occasion, “If we work on
marble it will perish; if we work on brass
time will efface it; if we rear costly temples
they will crumble away into dust; but if we
work upon immortal ,souls, and imbue them
with a just fear of God, and love for their
fellow beings, then we are doing work which
will last and brighten through all eternity.”
Saturday night! what hallowed associations
it brings before the writer of this article. I
remember Saturday night of years ago and
thosewho were my associates then,and while
memory turns habit to them I think of the
old song called “Twenty Years Ago."
“Some are left to greet me," but they are not
many; some of them sleep in the church-
yard, some on the battle field, some in the
prison pens of the South—they li'ave gone
home; all their work is done, they are rest—
ing from their labors; time with them is no
longer measured by week’s, months and
years; it is all one eternal day. There is no
Saturday night there. There is no night
there. What will the next week bring to 11.?
who can tell ? While the past week has
brought us “nearer home,” the coming week
will bring us still nearer, and let us remem—
ber the fact that, although life is short it can
be filled‘w‘ith a world of good actions—ac-
tions that will live through all eternity. Let
us not lament over lost opportunities, but in
the future strive to live that the world may
be better for our presence in it, for
“E’en now our weary feet
May be just upon the brink,
We may be nearer home,
Nearer than now we think."
W'cst Stratford'. May, 1880.
Elisha Hawley, of Ridgefield, Conn., was
a.soidier of the Revolution, and a deacon
He was a good man of business, but he never
charged a purchaser one cent more than the
article was worth. The Golden rule was his
rule of life.
One day he learned that a widow had been
reduced from a competency to poverty. He
visited her. Fearing lest, he might wound
her feelings if he should offer money or
charity, he said:
“Madam, I think I owed your late husband
fifty dollars, and I’ve come to pay it to you
as his legal representative.”
“How was that P” asked the lady, some—
what startled.
“I will tell you. About twenty—five years
ago, after yen were married, I made furni—
tiire for your husband to the amount of two
hundred dollars. I have been looking
over the account, and find that I rather
overcharged him in the price of some chairs
—that is I could have afforded them some-
what less. I have added up the interest,and
here, Madam, is the money.”
The tears came in the widow’s eyes; she
-half~suspected the deacon had constructed
the debt by suggesting that he had made an
overcharge. What was she to do ?—-the
money was on the table. and the deacon had
left the house—N. Y. Evangelist.
Whena Fiji husband dies his widow,is
strangled. The woman’s brother performs
the operation, and is henceforth treated with
marked respect by his brother-inlaw’s kins ..
folk, who present him with a piece of land,
over which the strangling cord is hung up.
Should he. however, fail to strangle hissister
he is despised. When a woman is about to
be strangled,‘ she is made to kneel down,and
the cord (a strip of native cloth) is put
around her neck. She is then told to expel
her breath as long as possible, and when
“ she can endure no longer to stretch out her
hand as a signal, whereupon the cord tight-
ens, and soon all is over. It is believed
that if this direction he followed insensibility
ensues immediately on the tightening of the
cord, whereas if inhalation, has taken place
there is an interval of suffering. This is se-
vere, and we-might suppose would make
marriage unpopular. It w0uld seem to be
only “square,” moreover that the husband’s
neck should be squeezed when the wife dies.
But "we men” have a way of avoiding
these pleasant retaliations ;- and so in Fiji
the 'husband cuts off his beard and buries
that with.his dear depaited as her certificate
to be presented to exacting authorities in the
, world below that she was a lawfully married
woman.

A missionary of the American Sunday
School Union thus describes the home of a
Western pioneer, in which he received a
hospitable welcome. The house, sixteen feet
square, built of round logs—one little window
with little glass and more rags—in a heavy
rain the inside of the logs as wet as the out-
side ; on the floor numerous pans set to
catch the water dripping through the leaky
roof. One of the beds had to be moved.
from place to place to find a dry spot, and
on the other bed, in a dry quarter, lay a sick
man. At the back of this cabin was a broad
shed, without floor, which served as kitchen
and dining room. This was the home of
one man, three women, four children, six
dogs, and a number of yellow cats. No
wonder that the woman of the house com—
plained, “This is sich a sickly country 1"—

sulfuric MISCELLiNY. '
In a late medical work .which has ckcitcd
much attention and clfiicism, Dr. Declat, of
Paris, argues that all diseases are due to the;
or upon the body. ~
A horse dashes past a series of cameras at
full speed, and in the brief interval of a sin-
gle bound Mr. E. J. Muybridgc securcsa
dozen or more photographs of the animal in.
succesaive stages of the leap, each picture
recording a different position of the body.
To represent the living animal upon a screen
by means of these views, Mr. Muybridge
nas now perfected an instrument which he
calls the zoogyroscope. It is a circular glass
having upon it a series of thc i‘netantaueous
photographs, which being successively i1—
lumiuated by an oxyhy'drogen lantern as the
glass is revolved, show a single continuous
but ever-changing picture. The effect is
magical The separate postures rapidly fol—
lowing each other produce upon the screen
the perfect semblance of a fast speeding
horse, every motion, even to the shape
of the ht“ on whisk’of the tail, being
faithful to life. Moving men and various
animals besides the horse have been shown
in like manner. .
An interesting experiment in nerve graft—
ician.’ He removed a portion of the sciatic
nerve of a fowl and replaced it by a similar
portion of the sciatic nerve of arabbit. The
ends soon united, and the fowl‘s leg com—

The inoculation of cattle as a preventive
of pleuro-pneumonia,‘ which was first tried
in Australia, has been introduced on a large
scale into Edinburgh, Scotland. During the
past three years about 5000 cattle have been
inoculated in the neiyhborhood of that city,
reducing the mortality from seventy-five to
about five per cent.
A curious and interesting application of
magnetism has just been observed. By writ-
ing upon a thin plate hardened steel with a
magnetized iron style, a tolerably permaoent
magnetism is communicated to the parts of
the plate covered by the writing. If iron
filings are then brushed over the plate they
will adhere to the magnetized portion, ren—
dering the writing visible.
Attempts at submarine photography have
been made with some degree of success. One
negative,secured at a depth of several fathoms
beneath the surface of the water, showed
several boulders covered with sea-weed, an
old anchor, and the mooring cables of three
yachts. .
When the rustic youth,—says Dr. Andrew
Wilson,—loitering along some lan‘e, comes to
a standstill to contemplate with awe and
wonder the spectacle of a mass of the famil—
iar “hair-eels” or “hair-worms" wriggling
about in a pool, he plods on his .way fully
convinced that he has just witnessed the re-
sults of the transformation of some horse’s
hairs into living creatures. And the theory
of such transformation is often accepted by
persons of considerable culture. The hair.
worms certainly present the appearance of
long,;delicate black hairs,_which movel about
with great rapidity amid the mud of pools
and ditches. These worms, in the early
stages of their existence, inhabit the bodies
of insects, and may be found coiled up
within the grasshoppur, which thus gives
shelter to a guest exceeding many times the
length of the body of its host. Sooner or
later the hair—worm, or Gordl'us, leaves the
body of the insect, and lays its eggs in water.
From each egg a little creature armed with
minute books is phduced, and this young
hair—worm burrows into the‘ body of some
insect—there to repeat the history of its
parent. Such is the authentic life of the
hair—worm.
The quantity of vapor present in the air
about us during the hot days of summer has
a very considerable influence upon our phys-
ical comfort. In a dry atmosphere evapor—
ation from our bodies takes place very rap
idly, and a large amount of heat being con-
ducted away by the exhaled moisture, an
agreeable sensation of coolness is maintained
at a temperature which would seem oppres—
ively hot in an atmosphere already surcharged
with moist vapor. "
A rare fossil bird, the Archcwopterya: of
which but three specimens are known to
exist, has just been secured for the Berlin
University at an expense of $20,000.
Salmon in English waters are found to be
largely infected by a fungus which has re—
sulted fatally to many of the fish. A recent
investigation showed the chief cause of the
disease to be overcrowding and an extension
of the season for catching was recommended.
Chemical science has recently sifllceeded in
extracting the coloring . matter from human
hair. Three coloring figments are found—
yellow, red and black—the various shades
being produced by mixtures. It appears that
in pure golden hair there is only the yellow
pigment; in red hair the red is mixed with
more or less yellow; 'while in dark hair the
+even the blackest hair containing as much
red pigment as the very reddest—the lighter
colors being overpowdered by the black.
According to Dr. Fraukland, the persis-
tence of Londoufogs is due to the fact that
the minute vesicles of water forming the fog
become covered with a thin oily coating
from the smoke of coal, thus preventing
evaporation even in a comparatively dry state
of the atmosphere. .
‘Ali Ling-’5 Adventures.
A CHINESE BOY TRAVELS FROM CALIFORNIA T0
PHILADELPHIA ON FOOT.
'Last week a Chinese boy was arranged in
the Police Court of Trenton, N. J., who sta-
ted that his name was Ah Ling, that he was
fourteen years of age, and had neither home
nor friends. He was turned over to the
Overseer of the Poor of Trenton. In speak-
ing of his home in the far East he said that
all he could remember was that it was situa—
ted by a stream of water; that his father
was a fisherman, and that his mother spent
her time making fans. One day while play-
ing .with his sister, she strayed away from
him,_and he waited by the stream of water
to see if she would return. While thus en—
gaged a boat came past filled 'with sailors.
The boat anchored almost directly in front
of his father's home. He was enticed on
board of the boat by the sailors, and, was
given something to drink, which caused him
to fall into a stupor. Upon awakening the
next morning he found himself on board the
same craft,away out at sea.- He was kindly
treated by the sailbrs, who brought him
playthings with which to amuse himself.
They sailed for many days, and at last they
landed on a strange shore. He was then
taken to the city of San Francisco. Upon
landing, the sailor, who had first 'enticed him
to come on board of the vessel, took him to
a sailor’s dram shop, and he was finally left
with a Chinese family. They were accustom-
ed to beat him. One day he managed to run
away and made his way to Los Angeles, Cal.
Ever since that day Ah Ling has been a
wanderer. About a month ago he succeeded
in reaching Philadelphia, having traveled the
entire distance from CalifOrnia on foot.

Celebrated Safes, ‘
In purchasing a. Safe, we wish to call your
attention to some of the important advantages
our Safes possess over all others, and which
make them the cheapest and best Safes now
made. ' .
lat. Our “PATENT INSIDE BOLT Wonx"
consists in placing the bolts and locks on the
inside of the door (as shown in the cut above)
where they are at all times accessible, and
can be cleaned and kept in order, and thus
prevent them from unexpectedly locking you
out. In all other Safes the bolts are placed
next the outside plate of iron, being covered
completely by the filling, consequently im-
possible to oil or clean them without digging
‘ out the filling, which is expensive, besides
losing the use of the Safe several days. As
the filling in our Safes is between the locks
and bolts and the outside plate of the door,
in most cases we can unlock our safes on the
combination after they have passed through a
severe fire, which saves breaking them open.
2d. Our- “PATENT HINGED CAP” consists
of the back plate 'of the door being hung on
hinges, and,fastened by a. thumb-screw,chh
enables one to have access to the locks and
bolts by simply removing the thumb-screw.
3d. While other safe-makers use three
wheel locks on their fire-proof safes (resorv-
ing the best four-wheel locks for bank cities),
we put on our FOUR-“71113111. Looks on all
safes, ffim the smallest to the largest, and for
simplicity and durability cannot be excelled.
4th. All our Safes are IRON-LINED mama,
instead of wood-lined as in other safes, which
enables us to use the the greatest amount of
water in our filling without danger of the
' ~Safe's being damp. All corners of the Safes
are secured with‘angle iron, which, together
with the very: hard nature of our filling, pre-
vents them fromipjury from falling, or fall—
ing walls or timbers. Our Safes have THREE
ELANdEs instead of single or double as in
others, and are made with and without inside
doors. In the great Boston fire our Safes had
the champicn record, as was fully ,pr'oved at
the time, to these important improvements
do we owe our success and the great popular-
ity‘ our safes have attained throughout the-
country. After that great fire we published
a. complete list of our Safes exposed,those that
failed to preserve their contents, besides those
that were successful, and for months chal—
lenged our competitors to follow our example
which they would not do, as they knew that
by so doing they would only assist us in dem-
onstrating to the world the superiority of our
Safes, and our claim to the champion record.
Although that Great Fire so conclusively
proved the superiority of our Safes to resist
intense heat, we believed that we could im-
prove them, and we have, therefore, since
that time, increased the thickness of the walls,
added to the number of fianges,and:strength.
ened them in various ways, until we now
manufacture a Safe better than ever before,
and unequalled for its excellence. ~ It has beén
our constant aim to make the BEST SAFE that
can be produced, believing that, especially in
purchasing a safe to keep that which may
have cost a. lifetime to accumulate, the best is
decidedly the cheapest. In these dull times
it is the custom of many safe—makers toman-
ufacture several grades of cheap safes, and
recommend that which can be sold the cheap-
est, without regard to quality, and many
safes are now in. use that are painted finely
outside, but are worthless to preserve their
contents from fire. We make but one class
of Safes, which is the best we know how to
produce, P find for descriptive catalogue.

. _, . 0
Several weeks ago five of the daughters of
Brigham Young, late head of the Mormon
church, were expelled from the church for the
crime of having gone to law with certain of
the brethren who attempted to rob them.
Afterward the elders, wishing to make peace
with the expelled litigants, sent a couple of
I.“tcacb'ers” to interview them. They re—
paired to the residence of _ Miss Dora Young.
What occurred there is told by the Salt Lake
Tfibuneas follows: ' , .0
“We want to see, sister Dora, if you will
not come back to us.” .
“I have received a- note callingon me to‘
appear to answer a'charge; what would you
do '1’”
' “Oh,” replied Brother Morris, “I should go
by all means—by all means!” .
“But I won’t do that,” replied the heiress,
“not for the world.”
“Oh, come now, sister Dora, don't say
that. If you have, done anything wrong'it
will be forgiven."
“Yes, but I haven’t done anything wrong.
What have I done i’” -
“You had a suit with your brethren,didn’t
you i"
“Yes, and I wish to graciousI had another
one.” '
“What, with the brethren .9”
“Yes, with the brethren.” _
“Don’t say that, Sister Dora; we don’t want
to hurt your feelings, but—" '
“And I don't want you to hurt my feelings.
‘If you do you’ll go out of my housea good
deal livelier than‘you came ill. I have stood
just as much from the Mormons as I intend
to bear, and if you offend me any way you
will go out 'of that door which a carpenter
put there for just such people."
“Oh, we dont want to hurt—"
“Well, then, don’t ask me to return to the
church; you can’t insult inc worse than by
requesting that.”
“Sister Dora, think of your father and
mother, and—” '
“Den’t speak to me of my father, Mr. Mor-
ris,” she interrupted. You, and the whole,
church knows that my father, prophet though
you call him, broke many a woman's heart.
If it required of me to break as many hearts
and ruin as many women as my father did, I
should go to perdition before I would go
back into the church, and—”
“Oh, sister Dora!” exclaimed the teacher's.
“It’s a fact, and you know it is afact. 'You
know that many of his wives died of broken
hearts, and how did he leave the rest? Look
at my mother and look at all the rest of them!
A religion which breaks women's hearts and
ruins them is of the devil. That‘s what Mor-
monis’m does. Don’t talk to me of my father;
but-I’ll tell you one thing; if my father were
iving‘ at present you wouldn’t dare to do
what you are doing now. 'ou wouldn’t have
stolen our money from us either. You pro— '
fess to regard my father as a prophet,aud yet
you have John Taylor stiinding in my fath-
er’s shoes when you know he is the worst
enemy my father has on earth. And around
him are gathered those brave apostles all
swearing against father, while in his lifetime
they couldn’t be servile enough. They are
'brave now!"
The teachers were dumbfounded at the
.honest girl’s estimate of her father, Brigham
Young and-saidnothing.
