Lead them Home.

_
Lord. we‘can trust Thee for our holy dead,
They, underneath the shadow of Thy tomb,
Have entered into peace : with bended head,
We thank Thee for their rest, and for our
lightened gloom.

But Lord, our living—who, on stormy seas
Of sin and sorrow. still are tempest-tossed !
Our dead have reached their haven, but for
these—
Teach us to trult Thee, Lord. for these,
our loved and lost !

For Those we make our passion-prayer l y
‘ night ;
For these we cry to Thee through the long
day. .- .
We see them no’, 0 km p tirelrt'ln Thy sight i
From them and or, be then not very fast

away.

515 if m theme to us, yet had them home

To where Thou standest at the heavenly

gate;
That so, from Thee they shall not further
roam; .
And grar:t as patient hearts Thy gathering
time to Wait. —S~unday Magazine.

Beginning with the November number,
there will appear in the Century Magazine a
series of papers by Rev. Washington Glad-
den, D. D., of Springfield, Mass, descriptive
of “The Christian League of Connecticut."
It is an account of c.,-opcraliorr in Christian
work among the different churches of large
towns in Connecticut : showing what kinds
of work they attempted, and what kinds
they declined to attempt; what methods
they employed ; how they combined effect-
ively in caring for the poor, in guarding the
public morals, etc; and how this experi-
ment led to a county organization for the
consolidation of feeble churches in the small
towns, and finally to the adoption of the
same methods throughout the State. These
papers are the outcome of much study of the
practical problems discussed, and are likely
to have important practical results.

A carpenter of Nismcs, France. while
making some repairs to an old house in the
city recently, discovered a secret receptacle
in the wall, and in this recess rolls of gold
amounting in value to $60,000. The car.
punter proposed to divide this sum with the
owner of the house. Then it was discovered
that the rolls of gold were wrapped in
papers on which was written the name of
“llIarsier,” a noted mlser who had lived in
the house in 1773. The heirs of the misc-r
hearing of the finding of the lost treasure
brought suit to reclaim it and have won the
case. The Carpenter and his employee get
nothing.

The Rev. Vivian Dodgson was lately en-
gaged in preaching to a crowd of idlers upon
the beach at Lowestoft, England, when
suddenly loud cries for help were heard
coming from the sea. Mr. Dodgson leaped
from a barrel on which he was standing and
ran to the water’s edge. There ire saw a
boat had upset in the sea and Lthat five per-
sons were swimming for their lives. With-
out a moment’s pause ire rushed into the
water and swam out. to the struggling creat—
ures. One woman he brought safely to land,
two were rescued by others. and a child was
saved by a man in the over-turned boat that
could swim.

An expedition under the command of Col-
onel Chambers has started from Port Town-
send. W. T.,into the Coast. Range mountains.
Its route will be via Port Discovery Bay.
One endeavor will be to find itbe headwaters
of the Dunguiness river, and another to find
an immense plateau said to be situated
somewhere in that region, and which has
never been trod by the foot of the white
man.

Winnernucca, princess of the Plules, is of

Denver is a city of llnmcsas well as a rail-
road and corrrmercial Center. It is lighted
by electricity, heated by a company from a
central station, has Holly waterworks,a paid

more than 600 miles of streets on which alone
the Herdic coaches have proved a success, a
$300,000 city hall, a $200,000 court house,
60,000 people, $200,000 debt, and for the
current year a democratic council that the
democratic organ calls “a den of thieves."
Upon the latter we also have a citizeus’
investigating committee—Denver Republi-

The Benton family of Scarburnh, Cal., have
turned their farm into a separate kingdom.
The nine members passed a formal declara—
tion of independence a few rnoulhs ago, and
crowned the husband and father a king.
They hoisted a new lltg chr the house, an-
nounced that their hundred acres were 110
longer apart of the Unilul Suites, and rc-
fused to pay taxes. They are to have a war
on their hands,for the sheriff lulullti: to make
an invasion.

Oregonian, that the Bri'islr bark Bulwark
was abandoned in February last Of) our

statement it was supposed that the remain—

John Davies, asixteen-ycars—cld lad, sun
of the late Rev. John Davies, who resides
with his mother at the Farnam residence on
the Norwich Town road, rose in his sleep
between eleven and twelve o’clock on Sun-
day night and crossing the room plunged
out the window. He fell three stories to the
ground in the rear of the dwelling. lie land-
ed first on a verandah roof two stories below
his room and then fell to the ground. ,Thc
family heard the noise of his fall and ran
into the back yard. Still in a daze of sore-
nambulism and perhaps frightend by the
people around, he hastily sprang to his feet
and darted into the house, not stopping till
be r'eached his room. As soon as he fully
recovered hié senses he said that he had been
dreaming of the sea coast, that he was in
bathing and that he had just taken a dive

The Moral ofa. Funeral.

—

The little village of Ansouia, Connecticut,
witnessed on Sunday, a remarkable funeral
pageant. Remarkable in the great number
of persons in attendance, in the character of
the individual thus honored, and in the cir-
cumstances under which he met his death.
It was a most imposing demonstration. A
stranger witnessing such a spectacle twenty
years ago would have said: “Doubtless the
body of some brave boy who fell in battle
while fighting for his country has been
brought home for burial, and these thou-
sands have gathered to do honor to his
memory.” And he might have added in
view of the great multitudes assisting in the
payment of this last tribute ofrcspect : “He
must have been some uncommon here;
some. one who, having furnished in his life
the model of exemplary conduct and manly
deportment, had still further endeared him-
self to the hearts of his neighbors and friends
by his self-sacrificing patriotism, and had
crowned all by meeting a martyr'siate in
he performance of some brilliant act. of
h areism.” But the stranger would have been
wide, very wide, of the mark. Except that
this was the funeral of a man who died by
violence as the result of engaging in acts of
violence, there was nothing here to suggest
a soldier’s life or soldier’s burial.

This was the funeral of James Smith,
better known to the people of the village
where he had spent the larger part of his
life and to which his body had been brought
for burial as “Chip" Smith. He was a
young man—twenty-threc years old at the
tlrnc of his death. His life, so far from
having been profitably and usefully spent,
had been worse than wasted; so far from
being an example, it was a fearful Warning
to all his associates. What he was as a son
was illustrated in the person of his father,
rnzrdc permanently deaf by a blow from his
hand when comparatively a boy. In the
family he was brutal and cruel; in the
neighborhood in which he lived he was
feared and avoided; to the ofliCer-s of the
law, with whom he was in almost constant
conflict, he was a terror; and it was in evi-
dence that for a long period he had enjoy. (1
a local notoriety as a fellow of desperate
tastes and viclous habits, and, when llllldmtd
with drink, of the most reckless and desper-
ate temper. Going home intoxicated he so
abused his mother and sister, threatening
them with a loaded pistol which he carried,
that the frightened women sought the aid of
the village police. When the policeman un-
dertook to arrest him, “Chip” Smith drew his
pistol and shot him in the be .vels. The policu-
man lingered four days in agony and then
died.

The murderer was tried, found guilty,
sentenced to death, and, after many delays
procured through the ingenuity of his coun-
sel for the prolongation of his llfe, last Fri-
day he was banged. He was buried on Sun~
day as being the day best calculated to bring
out a large crowd to assist in the poshumous
honors. Ten thousand people are said to
have been in attendance rrpon the occasion.
Two hundred young men belonging to the
“Monitor,” “Starlight” and “Jolly Rover”
Clubs, the character of which is hinted in
their names, marched ahead of the hearse,
and twenty-one hacks and one hundred and
twenty-seven other carriages, “filled princi-
pally by young people,” followed it to the
grave. His last days in prison were soothtd
by the ministrations of religion and itbe
attendance of faithful' and devote-J priests,
and there was no lack of floral offerings and
other gifts from the class of women who
habitually idealize and lionlzc the perpetra-
tcrs of great crimes. Upon the casket at the
funeral were many flowers; on a pillow
surrounded by a white dove were the words
“Thout art forgiven,” and on a cross the
word “Hope.” The officiating clergyman
took occasion to impress upon the great
audience in the church the warning con-
tained in the young man’s career and its
ending. Two hundred young men, members
of “social clubs” to one of which the (18068..-
ed belonged, listened reverently, no doubt;
but can there be any question that they were
much more impressed by the spectacle of
those posthumous honors done to one of their
own number, not in spite of, but on account
of, his crime, than by the solmn warning of
the priest?

“Chip” Smith dying in his bed, having
committed no murder, would have been
quietly and unostentatiousy buried. Hav-
ing committed murder and died at the hands
of the executioner, he goes to his grave amid
great ceremony, followed by ten thousand
sympathizcrs. This is the thought that takes
deeper hold of the young men than any
words of warning from the pulpit :or altar.
Is it, then. so admirable a thing to commit
murder and be hanged for if ?—N. Y. Tri—

West Virginia Coal Regions in
Darkness.

“A few Week ago," writes a missionary of

the American Sunday-School Union in W est
Virginia, "I received a call from the coal-
fields of Fayette County. Situated on the
banks of the beautiful Kanawha, hemmed in
by lowering mountains, I found an uninvit-
iug mountainneerss qualidlsettlement,swerm-
ing with :about 500 children. I am lost. for
language to describe the scene. I heard, I
ea .-.-, l Wondered, Five hundred children
iriiowcd to run wild,to desecrate the Sabbath
ro witness all kinds of crimes, and to breathe
an atmosphere polluted and poisoned with
curses! But I am rejoiced to say that I have
been enabled to bring 300 of these children
into the blessed fold of the Sunday -school
and while blasphemi‘es and brewing are heard
without, they are joining their voices in sing-
ing praises to God.
“All the schools organized here are using
the Union lesson papers and many have Un-
ion libraries. There is great need here of
Sunday-school work, because the mining
portions are filled with foreigners and so with
liouranism.

 

 

“Jolly Girls."

It is not the less a serious queston what
shall be done with the American jolly girl,
or what she will do with herself. The social

aspects of the question are naturally the

most obvious, but it has moral aspects also.
When a young girl gets to be impatient of

restraint, and anxious, first and chief of all,

to have “a jolly lime," Slit: is in a position
of at least possible peril. From the jelly
girls in certain ranks in society the Jennie
Craruers are recruited—girls who moup no
harm, but are so careless (if convcrrtionalitics
that they are in danger b.-forc they are aware

Our social customs allow a freedom between
the scxus which is wise and healthy, but
contains perilous possibilities. There is
1",O'Jl at least for the inquiry whether what

may be called the calisthcnic craze, the
cultivation of “urannls‘n” sports, games and

forms of physical exercise among girls, may
not have been the occasion in part for theidi
lniaished gentleness and womanliuess observ.
able in the jelly girl of the period. A keen
old lady is said to have comforted a young
mortar who was deplornlg her :lot in having
no daughter with the remark, “Be thankful,
uly dear, you have none. In tIresc days-—
who knows ?—SIIC might hauo turned out a
jolly girl i” Probably there are a good many
mothers, English and American, who apprec-
iate the force of this consolation. -

The Young Men Frightened
Away.

Every summer there is a complaint of the
lack of young men at the watering places.
This year the Complaint is louder than ever.
One of- thc reasons is that the extravagant
display made by some of the girls frightens
them away. They cannot afford such ex-
pensive luxuries as the girls appear to be.
They go fishing or‘boating or hunting by
themselves, or take long pedestrian tours
out of the reach of the girls. The girls
meanwhile sit on the fashionable hotel por-
tlcos, with their papas and mammas, and
lament and W0nder.—th'lad€lphz'a Timer.

A Model Woman.

_—

A TEXAN WIFE WIIOSE HUSBAND COULD NOT
PUT TIER OUT OF TEMPER.

The best natured woman in the United
States, lives in Austin. She has been mar-
ried a number of years to a man named Fer-
guson, but she and her husband have never
had a quarrel yet and he has frequently
boasted that it is utterly impossible to make
her angry. Ferguson made several desper-
ate attempts to see if he could not exasper-
ate her to look cross or scowl at him, merely
to gratify his curiosity, but the more outrag-
eously hevacted the more affable and loving
she behaved.

Last week he was talking to a friend about
what a hard time he had trying to find out
if his wife had a temper. The friend offered
to but $50 that if Ferguson were to go home
drunk, raise a row and pull the table-cloth
full of dishes off the table she wpuld show
some signs of annoyance. Ferguson said he
didn’t want to rob a friend of his money, for
he knew he would win ; but. they at last
made the bet of $50, the friend to hide in the
front yard and watch the proceedings of the
convention through the window.

Ferguson came home late and apparently
fighting drunk. She met him at the gate
kissed him and assisted his tottering steps to
the house. He sat down hard in the middle
of the floor and howled out :

“Confound your ugly picture. what did
you mean by pulling that chair from under
me 1?

“Oh, I hope you didn't hurt yourself. It
is my awkwardness, but I'll try and not do
it again ;" and she helped him to his feet, al-
though she had had nothing in the world to
do with his falling.

He then sat down on the sofa, and sliding
off on the floor, abused her like a pickpockct
for lifting up the other end of the sofa, all of
which she took gold naturcdly; and finally
she led him to the supper table. He threw
a plate at her, but she acted as if she had not
noticed it, and asked him if he would take
tea or coffee. Then the brute seized the
table cloth and sat down outhc flour, pulling
-the dishes and everything else with him in
one grand crash.

What did this noble woman do ? Do you
suppose she grumbled and talked about
going home to her rrl-l, or that she sat down
and cried like u fool, or that she sulkcd or
poured? Not a bit of it. With a pleasant
smile, she Said:

“Why, George, that’s a new idea. ain‘t
it? We have been married ten years and
have never yet ate our supper on the floor.

Won't it be fun—just like those picnics we
used to go so before we got married?" And
then this angelic woman deliberately sat
down on the floor alongside of the wretch,
arranged the dishes and fixed him up a nice
supper. .

This broke George all up. Ile owned up
he was only fooling her,:and offered to give
her the $550 to get her a new hat, but she
took the money and bought him a new suit
of clothes and a box of cigars.—flaloeston

Cast,Down, but not Destroyed.

“I have traveled over 115,000 miles in my
work," writes a missionary of the American
Sunday-school Union, “ but never met a
serious accident until last Sunday. when my
horse, frightened by Sabbath-breakers driv-
ing a hand-car on the railroad through the
woods, became unmanageable and ran away,
upsetting my buggy, and I was thrown out
against a log and then dragged along under
the bug 3', my shoulder-jbruised and my
clothes nearly torn off.” Brit there was
enough of the buggy left to be tied together,
so as to be used in conveying the missionary
twenty-five miles to his home. He had en-
joyedavcry happy foreseen in visitinga
Sunday-school organized by him three
weeks before, which he found very prosper-
ous, and in organizing another school; and
bruised as he was, he stopped on his way
home to visit another school, but was unable
to get out of his buggy; and so the school
came out and surrounded it, visiting him
and expressing their sympathy. Cast down,
he was not destroyed nor downcast in his
soul---—“Presbyterian J ournal."— Church Un—

their cause better or defend their interests
StrollKer than he has in his official capacity.
Full of sophistries, special pleadings, im‘
pudent assumptions, and of dodging the
real issues, his speeches are a disgrace to
the nineteenth century, and even to the
Bourbon state in which he lives. He is a fit
companion of Commissioner Baum, the real
father of the infamous Bonded Distillers' bill,
which we trust the sentiment or the nation
will so make itself felt at Washington as to
accomplish its defeat—National Temperance

Senator \Viudom.

Temperance won a positlvc'triumph in
the Senate in the defeat of the Distillers'
hill. Great was the astonishment of the
distiller-s, who, gathered from far distant
points, hurt for many weeks been busy as
beavers working up the final sccccss of their
bill, extending indefinitely the distilled spirits
bond period. Great also was their disap-
pointment, when. by a vote of thirty-two to
twenty, their supreme hope ill the whisky
trade WMS suddenly laid low. The complete
route of the nisky distiilcrs was caused by
the coo-oz and ferver of Sl-lnltnr Windcm both
in the Committee of Investigation, of which
he is chairman, 11] which he pushes distillers
close to the ivall. and in the powerful speech
in the open Senate, in which he discomfiled
the leader of the dislillcrs, Senator Beck.
This speech of Senator Windom was one of
the very best of his lenislativc life, reflecting
on both his mind and moral perception most

positive credits-Independent.

now Hoodlums are Made.

“Madam," said the benevolent '1‘. 0.,
some days ago, to a matronly-looking wo-
man. with a and face, "have you lost any-
thing ?" "Yes, sir, I have lost a boy," was
the reply. She gave us his description—
“He was a ruddy led, with fair hair and a
cheery ringing voice, and a bright eye and
a winning smile." We found him standing
in the doorway of. a theatre, smoking a el-
garette. He was sallow-faced, lmpudent and
greasy. He stared in women's faces as they
passed by. He was leery, becry and disa-
greeable. He had the air of a roueof fifty,
with the frame of a youth of eighteen. His
mouth was an outlet for blasphemy and in-
decency. He was a blot uponvthe sidewalk
—a tester-spot standing out against the
handsome architecture of the theatre.
“Madam," we said, “here is your boy.
The streets have made him what be 13—11
hangrr-on in doorways, a nasty mixture of
hoodlum, swell and blackguard. And
furthermore, madam, there are hundreds of
his kidney, whose backs are a temptation to
the canes of every decent person that comes
within their vile atmosphere of cigarette
smoke, slang and abomination, nauseating,
repulsive, sunken-eyed reptilcsthat they are.

Eucouraging Figures.

Some cheerful statistics are collected by
some of the English journals regarding the
deer-ease in the use of liquor in the British
Islands during the last five years. Alcohol
paid into the Treasury m 1874 $155,000,000.
In 1881 the sum was reduced to $145,000.
000. These figures the Pall Mall Gazette
cites from the Budget, quoting Mr. Hoyle
in estimating the average yearly expendi-
ture on drink of each English man, woman
and child, in 1875, to have been more than
$29, and in 1881 to have fallen tc less than
$16. Considering the extremely low price
of gin, whiskey and the inferior grades of
stimulants in England and Ireland, that
amount of individual outlay, to an Amer-
ican view,would insrue a comfortable degree
of universal tipsiness. But the Gazette con-
gratulates its readers as if the whole nation
had been turned, presto I into a cell of pious
snchorites. It attributes the wholesale
conversion of the masses first to the want of
money to buy liquor. secondly, to the coffee
house movement, and thirdly to the "Blue
Ribbon" and religious temperance socities,
notably those supported by the Catholic
clergy, and the “Salvation Army'" The ef-
fect of this diminution in the use of
stimulants is shown in the immediate
increase in the amount of money deposited
in the savings banks. In 1880 the working
classes deposited $285,000,000; in 1881
there were deposits amounting to $225,-
000,000 in the old savings banks, and in the
postal savings banks, just established over
$185,000,000. All these savings, however,
the Gazette adds significantly, do not yet
amount to ten per cent. of the money spent

in liquor. ____.____

Temperance N ores.

A London paper says: “In the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland there
are about 40,000 places of religious worship
while it appéars to be a well as-ccrtaiued fact
that for eVery 1,000 persons attending the
house of God, above 2,000 are to be found on
Sunday in the public house."

The Indiana Supreme Court has decrdcd
that the act" declaring an ofllccr becoming
drunk during ofiice hours, or being a hubllual
drunkard thereby forfeits his office, a valid
act. Any person resident of the county in
which the ollicer lives may file a complaint

,in the Circuit Court.

The annual report of the United King-
dom Band of Hope Union states that the
Union now numbers 4,376 societies, with
790,000 members. The juvenile templars
number 8,354 societies, with 1,076,000
members. In London there are 707 tocilics,
dividedinto ten well managed unions. The
publication department realized $15,000 last
year by sale of the society’s Works, an in-
crease of 82,410 copies over the previous
year.

The Pennsylvania Railroad dismisses any
employee who takes any intoxicating liquor
during his hours of duty. It is not only
drunkenness, but drinking, which is thus
prohibited. A prominent manufacturing (:k-
tablishment in this city dismisses for the day
any workman whose breath smells of liquor.
They will not pay wages for the diminished
skill and vigor of the man who has taken what
many men deem indispensable, a morning

dram. _
Four small boys in the English town of

Hsyton were supplied three weeks ago with
liquor by an inn-keeper named Dormes, in
violation of a law forbidding its sale to chil-
dren under sixteen years of ago. One of the
boys was only nine. They had six-penny-
worth of rum, :1 quart of ale, a pint of cider,
and pipes and tobacco. On the premises they
smoked. and all of them, from the combined
effects of drink and tobacco, became ludri—
ciously ill. Innokeeperaownes was fined in
the not oppressive sum "of £1 and costs, so
that very likely he will sell whisky to any
other boys who may desire it, taking his
chances on making up so slight a line in the
proceeds of his sale.

A Clam who was in the habit of sunning
himself on a saudbank was out one day engi-
tating over the eastern question when along
came a Fisherman, who said, “Mr. Clam,why
can’t you and I be friends 1" “I see no ob~
jcctions," replied the Clam. “Nor I, either,
It has hurt my feelings many a time and oft
to see how you avoid me. Come out and let’s
have a friendly talk." “But I‘m not at home
on dry land.” “And I'm not at home in the
water." The Clam was finally induced to
crawl to the shore, and he had scarcely
stated his position on the free trade question
when the man lifted him off his feet and
placed him in a basket. “What's this for? ’
demanded the Bivalve. “It's a mere mat-
ter of friendship," was the reply. “As a
Clam in the water your good will is or no
use tome. As a Clam in the fryiugpsn I
shall appreciate you of your full worth.”
Moral— l‘he friendship of some men is to be
dreaded far more than their enmity. Sec-
ondly, a clam who is doing well enough in
the water is a fool to leave it for the shore.—

MENT QUARRY—DESTRUCTION on AN EYE

—I'rs Sunanunrr'r REMOVAL nv SURGICAL
OPERATION.

 

 

Mr. Oscar Crulgg was foreman in a cement quar-
ry at Roscndule, Ulster 00., N. Y. By an explo-
sion one day in the quarry he lost an eye-lost it
totally. Under the impression that the matter
was less serious the local physician told Mr.
legg that his eye was not lost wholly,but could
be saved by treatment. The experiment. Worse
remained behind, for he was in danger of losing
the other also,througll sympatlretle inflamation.
In this strait be consulted Dr. David Ia'ermedy, of
Rondont, N. Y., who told him the injured eye
must be taken out to save the other. To this Mr.
Craigg demurrcd,und went back home in doubt.
Ills local physician said: "Go to New York." To
New York the patient went, and one of the most

eminent occulist in the country, having looked n‘
the case, mud: “You have lost one eye clltirclyi
fie back and do what you can to save the other.”

rietly, Dr. Kennedy removed the ruined eye and
treated Mr. Craig; with “Kennedy’s Favorite
Railway.” to build up the system, and the result
was successful.

Dr. Kennedy’s nrcm. success as a surgeon is due
to the use or‘ “l"wvm-ilc Remedy” in the alter

A dear little babe in its proud mother’s arms.
Wlilth (fuzzy red cheeks and a billiard-ball
ea ,
Awake in my soul more delicious charms
Than nectar ecstatic or wine that is red.
Irrespective of gender,
Carceses I tender—
Let slobber and drool as it may—
And I fondleovhole litters
Or the dcnrllttlc critters,
And find these civilities pay.

On the cute little months, with honey all
dripping,
It is joy, it is bliss
To bestow a long kiss-
A fervent, long kiss, that uphca‘ves from the
throat,
And .leaves a red mark on the spot that is
smote;
A kiss that conveys, by its ,succulent sip-
Dm v,
The passion that rauklcs (Iowa under my
coat ;
Ay, under my vest,
Deep down in my breast-
A kiss that insurt-s. by its soft pleading not--,
A fond mother‘s smile and a proud father’s
vote. ——I)e.'wer ’ 'rz‘brurc.

Dr. George Johnson has given an interest-
ing list of articles of food and drink will: h
should be used tilltll'lVOldL'd by those who do
not wish to grow fat. Such persons may eat
lean mutton and beef, veal and lamb, thin
soups, beef ten, poultry, game, fish and eggs.
bread in moderation, greens, crosses. lettuce,
green peas, cabbage, cauliflower, onions and
fresh fruit without sugar; butshould abstain
from fat meat, bacon, ham, butter. cream,
sugar, potatoes, carrots, parsnips, rice, sage,
tapioca, macaroni, custards, pastry, puddings,
and sweet cakes.

It has been estimated that the North Amer-
ican continent is being reduced in freight at
the rate of a foot in every 3,500 years by the
erosive action of water.

Many singular creatures are known to
science, but probably none of the lower
animals have a more remarkable method of
securing prey than the chaetodon, a beauti-
ful Japanese fish. Seeing a fly lighted near
the surface of the water, this fish gently ap-
proaches and with unerring aim projects a
drop of water at the unsuspecting lnsec‘,
knocking it from its perch, when it is easily
secured.

Mr. Robert E. C. ,Stcarns has suggested
the possibility of making valuable investiga-
tions into the periodicity§of climates and the
direction and effects of prevailing winds by
a systematic study of the annual ring of
trees. It may bé found, for example, that
thick and thin rings record wet and dry
years, and that a greater growth on one side
of a layer than on the other may be traced
to a difference in the amount of heat strking
the two sides. The record of some trees
covers along period.

Of the Royal Society of London, Prof.
Draper says: "We have only to turn over

. the pages of its transactions to discern how

much this:society;has done for the progress
of humanity. It was incorporated in 1662,
and has interested itself in all the great
scientific movements and discoveries that
have since been made. It published New-
ton's “Principla;" it promoted Kelley’s
voyage, the first scientific expedition under-
taken by any government; it made experi-
ments on the transfusion of blood, and ac-
cepted Harvey's discovery of the circulation.
The encouragement it gave to inoculation
led Queen Carolina to beg six condemned
criminals for experiment, and then to submit
her own children to that operation. Through
its encouragement Bradley accomplished his
great discovery, the observation of the fixed
atars, and that of the discoveries, Delambre
says, we owe the exactness of modern
astronomy. .It promoted the improvements
of the thermometer, the measure of temper-
ature, and in Harrison's watch the chro-
nometer, the measure of time. Through it
the Gregorian calendar was introduced into
England, in 1752, against a violent religious
opposition. Some of its members were
pursued through the streets by an ignorant
and infuriated mob, wire believed it had
robbed them of eleven days of their lives!
* * * IfIwcre to attempt to (injustice
to this great society, I should have to devote
many pages to such subjects as the achro-
matic telescope of Dolland; the dividing
engine of Ramadan, which firs: gave precis-
isn to astronomical observations; the
measurement of a degree on the earth's
surface by Mason and Dixon ; the expedition
of Cook, in connection with the transit of
Venus; his circumnavigation of the earth;
his proof that scurvy, the curse of along
sea voyage, may be avoided by the use of
vegetable substances; the polar expeditions;
the determination of the density of the earth
by Maskeliue’s experiments at Schcuallion,
and by those of Cavendish.”

Lecturing upon the :storagc of electricity,
Prof. Sylvunus Thompson has declared the
two great recent discoveries in science to be
that the Gramme machine is reversible and
that the Voltaic battery is reversible. The
former has solved the problem of the elec-
trical transmission of power, and the other
the problem of the electrical storage of en-
ergy. Such storage, ibowever, must not be
mistaken for the storage of the electricity it-
self.

The experiments in chemical horticulture
of Muelony, of St. Own, have been very
successful. He has tried simultaneously
three methods of cultivating legumes, flow-
ers and trees, viz. : with ordinary manures,
with chemical manures in garden soil, and
with a special compound in pure sand.
This special compound—which he calls floral
—contains nitrogen, phosphoric acid, pot-
ash, magnesla and sulphur, in so concentrat-
ed a form as to require dilution with 20,000
times their volume of water. During a
period of five years the artificial soil prepar-
ed by treating sand with fioral has yielded
plants strikingly better in every respect than
those grown by the other methods.

The body heat of birds is greater than
that of any other class of animals, ranging
from 106 to 112 degrees Fahrenheit. Among
the mammalia it is from 95 to 105 degrees,
varying in adult man from 98 to 100. In
sleep it is about a degree and a half lower
than when awake, and in fevers it rises sev-
eral degrees above the normal temperature.
In the young of all animals the body heat is
greater than in the adult--the difference be-
ing a few degrees.

 

John M. Niles, a wealthy citizen of Hart-
ford, who drediu 1856, bequeathed $20,000
in trust to the city, one half of the income
pf which was to be devoted to the purchas-
ing of fuel for the Hartford poor, and the ba-
lance to be added to the principal until the
whole should amount to $40,000. The fund
amounted April 1 to $40,335, and will supply
the coming water more than 200 poor fami-
lies With two tons of coal each.

f I have a preparation here that will extgr-
minute bugs,” said a hardwisaged old man
With green goggles,'as he entered our office
the other day. "All the bugs want is one
smell of it and they are gone." “Will it 01:-
terminate humbugs P” asked our obituary od-
ltor, seriously. “Oh, yes,” anxiously an.
swered the peddler, moving up to the scribe
more closely, and jubilant at the thought of a
sale. “Well just elevate some of it to the
vicinity of your nostrils, and let me see!”
said our obituary man, which remark had
the effect of causing the goggle-eyed individ-
ual to disappear beautifully.— Yonkers States-
