intense disgust of thooommunity at largo.

he made no complaint, the theory that

away unconcernedly. The police made'
some twenty arrests, and put a watch on

dust two years before that, to a day, a
still more myutorious crime had been
committed inside of the Bank of France.
As M. Bouron, a sub-cashier, was passing
along a dusty corridor leading from tho
central safe to his desk, having under his
arm a. package containing more than
£40,000 in bank notes, one man throttled
him while another seized the money.
Bouron, a powerful man, shook them 00'
and shouted ” Murder 1 ” when the clerks
and 'watchmen ran to his aid. . One of
tho robbers lowered his head and made a
dash for the street; he butted two or
three over, but was finally overpowered.
His accomplice leisurely adjusted his hat
and cuffs and walked calmly out of the
place, no one knowing as yet that twa
men had been concerned in the attempt.
The captured man was taken to the police
office, but, as he was asked his name, he
drew a pistol and blew out his brains.
Though 100,000 persons inspected his
effigy at the morgue, andthe bank offered
a great reward, no one ever identified the
«lead man, nor was his companion ever
again heard of.

“ When I. thermometer is to be made, "
says a manufacturer, “ the glassblower
first blows a bulb on the end 013's long
tube. While this tube is hot the end of
the tube is inserted in mercury, and as
the bulb cools the mercury rises and fills
the bulb. This process is repeated until
the bulb and part of the tube are filled.
The bulb is then immersed in snow 01'
chipped ice and the mercury settles t0 the
freezing point, which is marked on the
tube as thirty-FWD degrees, if a Fahren-
heit scale is to be followed. N ext the
bulb is put in boiling water, and thopoinf
to which the. mercury rises is marked 011
the scale as 212 degrees. Ten degrees of

 

 

the mercury are now detached from, the. ,
columnvby jarring, and the whole length 3
of the tube is tested The process is re. 3
peatcd with five degrees of tho columnbe-
ing measured all the time by a standard 3
thermometer to see if the tub! is conical 3
at any point. . Common thermometers 3
generally very about two or tln'ee degre as, 3
owing to the irregularity of the opening 3
in the tube, which causes the mercury to 3

rise slowly where the opening is too large 3 .

and too fast where the openingis too nar- ;
row. It requires great skill to blow a ,'
tube with a uniform opening the whole 3
length. They should be allowed to stand 3
not less than one month—one year is bct- 3
tor—to allow the mercury to settle before 3
the scale is made.” Ehc self-registering l
thermometer is used formarking the high
cot and lowast points reached within a 3
given time. The bulb is filled with mer-
cury, above which in due time is inserted
a fine piece of steel spring ;the remainder
of the tube is filled with catholic acid or
creosote. The steel spring rests at the
highest point it ispushed to by the mer-
cury, and is afterward drawn down by a
small magnet. By a duplex arrangement
and reversing the scale the lowest or cold-
est point is indicated in the same way.
The deep sea thermometer is of the some
pattern, and is encased in a heavy copper
tube to preserve it against the pressure of
water. It has, besides, a. self-regulating
attachment The fever or clinical ther-
mometers are made with great nicely,
and are used for determining the temper-
nrure of the human body.

When the French troops made their
first and- unsuccessful advance against
Sonny, some importance was attached by
the special correspondents of the English
papers to the circumstance that the Black
Flags apparently fired low. It was
pointed out that modofthebullet-wounds
mceived by the French soldiers were
found in the legs and lower parts of their
bodies. Otcourso the practice of firing
low is one strongly urged upon troops. a-
showcr of bullets being much more effec-
tiveif fired low. even if it strikes the
ground in front oftllc advancing hostilo
force, than it would be if sent into the
air over the heads of the approaching
enemy. But we heard a. rather interest-
ing explanation of the reason why the‘
Black Flags and their allies fire low ex-
preSsed the other day by one who hashad
:1 great amountofexpericnoo with Chinesc
lroops. 'He said that the bulk of the
Chincsehadno idea of the use of the

,sighlson the rifles, and it was almost
useless toattcmpt to teach them the value
of such oontrivances. Thus, a Chinese
soldier, armed with a modern rifle, would
nevorthinkof raising the sight of his
weapon when he was called upon to use
it, especially in the face of an enemy.
He would fire at an object six hundred
yards off with the sight down, the 0011864
quences being that. tho muzzle of the
rifle not receiving the necessary elevation
to carry the bullet over a long distance,
she ball would strike or descend very
close to the ground before it reached its
destination. It was also asserted that
some of "the Chinese soldiers actually
knocked the sights of their rifiesasbcing
useless. We need hardly any that tho
cliineso can never become effective
soldiers until they appreciate the value
of sighting the rifles; and the circum-
stances we have narrated will go as fur-

't-her. proof of the-miserable condition of
the Chineseforces; the supinencss and
incompefgnoy of the oficers, and the ill-
prepared slate of Ghinesc armies to resist

This in the most wretched part of the
city. The narrow, dark. crooked streets
rock with filth. The air is full of foul
odors and tho-shop! filled with old clothes ,
and second-hand goods. On that very 3
spot a colony of Jews has lived for many 3
centuries They have been the victims
of a monstrous Opprcaion against which
they daronot complain. Four thousand
of those children of Abraham are to-day
huddled together inthat foulest part of
Rome. Under-Abe pontificatc of Pius IX.
' these “Prisoners-of Zion" were locked
in the Ghetto every night. Since the
occupation of the city by the Italian
Governmwtthccursoof ages has been
somewhat lifted-from the Poor Jews. In

which Paul “dwelt two ' whole years in

1884:.

Another year has ended, with its successes and disappointments, with
its fortunes and misfortunes. We have neither time nor inclination to
rejoice over the one or mourn over the other.

The present is ours, the future W111 be, if we can catch it. To the
reader of this column, let me say, settle in your own mind what you will
do for yourself and this community this year, and stick to it, and success
is just as certain here as anywhere. The growth of Norwalk for the past
to" veal-s, compared with the neighboring towns of Bridgeport, Danbury
and St unford has been slow,but what it has gained it has every appearance
of keeping. Our pulpits are all will supplied, our stores all occupied
and more wanted, our dwelling houses are all rented. our factories all
fairly busy, and a naked tendency is seen toward a growth together of
Norwalk and South Norwalk which will ultimately compel the union of
the two places, which should have occurred years ago. With a confi-

dence in thc' future of this town, justified by an experience of many

years, and increased by

a strong conviction that our national motto f'E

pluribus Unum" will apply to the railroad, plans already broached, and

that the resounding whistle of the loc

SHINGLES.

It is just as easy to tell what-is‘in a barrel. by looking at the outside
as it is to tell the quality of shingles by looking at-tho outside, of the
bunch. And yet nine-tenths of the shingles are bought-from drummers
without being seen until delivered. I think,'I sell the best shingles in
this market and as a natural result, I sell more than all others put to-
gether. I seldom buy without a personal examination of the mills, the
mode of manufacture,.thc standard of inspection and sorting, and the
stock from which they are made. Then the uniformity of the grade is
secured and can be secured only by the brand of a reliable maker, as

by a grocer or furnisher of mill supplioawho never called a mill or
made a shingle. I have seen thousands of thencshiug‘l'aslold hero in

W
wmnnmoa IN MEXICO.
At Eagle Pass some of the Mexican 061-
cars came over the river to visit the Amer-
ican ofilwrs, and one of the former pro-
fessed great admiration for a young Yan-
kcc‘lientcnunt, and insisted on present-
ing him with 8. 110111180 9 black horse,
which, in spite of the A crican'srepeatcd
refusals, was brought over to him by the
Mexican officer’s servant the next morning.
In course of a. few days the Mexican again
sent to the American, saying that his
losses at play had been so heavy, that he
must'havc $500 at once, and that ho was
sure his most excellent and illustrious
friend would find no difficulty in lending
him the needful sum. The subaltern had
to travel all round the barracks to borrow
the money and to support the miller-y of
his comrades for the next fortnight, and
he thought that four month’s pay was a

- high price at which to purchasebisknowl—

edge of Mexican artifice. But the Moxie
can infantry are said to be wonderful
marchers, and distance the famous Brit-
ish facts in the Peninsula recorded by
Napier. We have been seriously assured
that a regiment went from Eagle Pass to
Montcrey in one march, the distance bo-
ing 100 miles; and. though of course this
passes belief, yet in times gone by, if a
man dropped on the march, it is said that
the office: would, all means toinduco him
to get up and proceed having failed, pass
his sword through the Body of the worn-
out fusilier, give his musket to a soldier.
and leave the body by the roadside ; and,
from what we know of Mexican cruelty,
we imagine that this is not improbable.
Both in the war of Texan independence
and in tho subsequent struggle with the
United States, the Mexicans did not dis-
play any remarkable military qualifies;
they did better against Bazainc, and of
late they have shown great energy against
tho forcible Apaches in Chihuahua.
