The unbands'glng of the mummy of
Rameses II took less than one-queries
ofanhour. Aftersshortpauseoiafew
moments, at precisely '10 minutes before
10 o'clock. the mummy numbered 0:229

the wife of KingJamesL of the XVIIItb
Dynasty, it had been taken for granted
that No. 5.229 was the mummy of this
Queen. The other mummy was sup-
posed to be that of some unknown prin-
cesslwho lindIbeen laid beside Nofrefari
by the priests empldyed to'conceal the
Royal mummies in the hiding place at
Dayr-eLBallill'i. Consigned to the
museum stores, the mummy decayed and
gave out so foul an odor that it became
necessary to get M of it. It- was
accordingly opened. and proved to have
been bandaged very carefully; but the
body was no sooner exposed to the outer
air than it fell literally into a state of
pulrefaction. dissolving new block

Ramessa III. in the likeness of; two
forms of Amen. Ashort legend. written
partly in cursive bieroglyphs and partly
in hieratic, states that the piece of linen
thus decorated was the gift of the head
laundrese of the royal household. and it
was accordingly supposed that the
anonymous mummy was one of the many
fisIIters, wives or daughters of Bamesas

populI' at Thebes. where she was
dcifi under one of the forms of Hathor,
the black goddess, the goddess of death
and of the shades. The opening of the
mummy No. 0,829 would,- therefore,
probably settle this historical question
for good and all.
The. orange-colored winding-sheet be--
ing removed. there appeared beneith
a white sheet bearing an inscription in
four lines: " The year XIII. the second
month of Sbomo'n. the 28th day. the First
Prophet of Amen. King of the Gods.
Piuotcm, son of the First Prophet of
Amen . Plankhi. the scribe of the tem-
Zosercu-Khonsu, and the Scribe of the
Necropolis Bontobamon, proceeded to
restore the defunct King Ramser-ma
Mar-Amen and to establish him for
eternity. ”
The mummy, which had hitherto been
taken for Noirctari, was then the mum-
my of Bameses 111.: and the anonymous
manhuy was without doubt that of Noir -
retari.
This point being verified, Bamescs
III. was placed erect and photographed
in bisbandages. Short as was the de-
lay, it seemed too long for the impatient
spectators. The strange revelation,
which had substituted one oi the great
conquerors of Egyptian history for the
venerated. Quecnof the eighteenth dy-
nasty. had astonished and excited them
to the uttermosf- The unbandaging of
the great mummy then recommenced
in the midst of general impatience
All had left their places and crowded
round the operators. Three thicknesses
of bandages were rapidly unwound, then
.came 11 casing of sewn canvas covered
with a_ thin coat oi cement. This casing
being cut with the scissors. more layers
of linen appeared. The mummy seemed
to diminish and reveal iteform under our
fingers. Some of the wrappings were in-
scribed with legends and groups in black
ink, notably the God Amen anthroned.

Two pectoral ornaments were laid in
the folds 'of the wrappers. one of gilt
wood, bearing the usual group of Isis
andNepthys adoring the sun ; the other
in pure. gold, inscribed with the name of
Bamcs'es III. One last wrapper of still-
sued canvas. one last winding-sheet of
red linen. and then a great disappoint-
meat, keenly felt by the operators; the
face oi the king was coated with a com-
pact mass of bitumen which completely
bid the features. At _11 2:0 His High-
uses the Khedive. left the ball of mum-
mics.
. The work was resumed in the after-
noon of the same day, and on Thursday
ua the lld of June. a fresh examin-
stion the bandages revealed inscrip-
lions upon two of them. The first is
datedltse IX. the second the year
I. of thp Priest Pinoiem I.- The

mummy runs usefully attacked with

are as well poisoned than those oi

extent be identified with. those of the
portraits of 111‘. emaqueror. The head

better proportioned and more intellectual
than that of Romeses II. The brow-

eyes appear to be larger. but it is not
possible to be certain of this last point.
the eyelids having been removed and the
cavities of the eyeballs stufied with rags.
The cars are closer to the head than
those of Ramesee II. and they are
pierced in like manner for the reception
of earrings. The mouth is dispropor-
tionately wide, and the thin lips reveal a
row of white and well-placed teeth. The
first molar on the right side appears to
have been broken. or to have been worn
away earlier than the rest. In short.
Ramescs III. is like a smaller imitation
of Bameses II. The physiognomy is
more delicate, and above all, more intel-
ligent; but the height of the body is less.
the shoulders are less wide, and the
strength of the man was-inferior. What
he was himself in his individual person
as compared with BamesesIIL. so was
his reign as compared with Ramoses II.
His wars were not fought in Syria or
Ethiopia. but at the mouths of the Nile
and on the frontiers of Egypt. His
buildings were of a poor style and of
pompous m; that of Rameses II. but his
resources were more meagre. His vanity
was, however. as boundless, and such
was his. supreme desire to copyin all
things the example Iof his illustrious
predecessor, that he gave to his sons the
names of the sons. of Bamescs IL. and
almost inethe same order of birth.

It was the universal belief, until a
few years since, and is still a common
one, that the decay of timber was due
to aromatic-slow combustion. It
is to the improvement and use of the
microscope and its accessories that the
true causes of decay of wood are found
to be due to various forms of fungi.

What is called “dry rot " in timber is
really the efiect of the myocla, or fila-
ments of fungi which pierce the walls
of the wood-cells when softened by
moisture. It has been an unfortunate
designation, misleading many people
and causing them to believe that tim-
ber will rot when dry, thus preventing
them from taking proper precautions
to prevent decay. It is impossible £01

Recent experiments have been made
with a view of recovering the tin from
waste and scrap tin plates by means of
an electric process which is also said to
be applicable to the treatment of tail-
ings, slag and many kinds of refuse.
Dynamos are used to generate the
electric current, which as passed through
the solution in which the tin cuttings
or mining stuffs are deposited. These
are connected with the positive pole
and the tin withdrawn from the tin
cuttings, or the gold withdrawn from
other substances which may be under
treatment. .
A regulation as old as the French
Academy of Sciences has just been
broken through in Paris. Women have .
hitherto been excluded from the ses-
sions of the Academy, but at the meet-
ing. of the 28th ult. the interdiction was
raised in favor of Milo. Sophie Kow-
iewska, professor of mathematics at the
University of Stockholm, and daughtcl
of ,the eminent palseontologist. The
president of the Academy welcomed
her in graceful terms, and said that her
presence should be a cause of pride and
pleasure, not only to the mathemati-
cians present, but to the whole Acad- .
cmy. When she entered the hall all the
members rose to salute her.
There are sixty mauufactorles of glu-
cose in the United States and Germany.
the annual production in this country
being valued at $10,000,000. Glucose is
extensively used as a substitute for cane
sugar in the manufacture of table
syrup, in brewing, in confectionery, in
making artificial honey, and in adulter-
ating cane sugar. Recent experiments
by Dr. Duggan, of Baltimore, show that
glucose is in no way inferior to cane
sugar in healthfulness. Artificial maple
sugar can be made by adding to a mix-
ture of glucose and cane sugar an extract
of hickory bark, which gives exactly the
desired flavor.
The tendency to substitute steel for
iron wherever possible was never
stronger than at present. Throughout
Pennsylvania and the West a number
have been recently established, and in
Tennessee extensive preparations are
now in progress-for converting the pure
magnetic ores of the North Carolina
mountains into Bessemer steel. The
trial of the new process known as the
“dephosphcrization” or “basic” pro»
case by the Pottstown Iron Company
has been very satisfactory, and it can
be profitably applied to the iron de-
posits orthe Appalachian system, which
contains phosphorous. In the manu-
facture of nails, steel is rapidly taking.
the place of iron, as steel-nail plates
can be produced at a cheaper rate, and-
the product is of a superior quality.

Not Necessary to Drown.
Many persons have wondered that all
animals seem to possess an instinctive
knowledge of swimming, and that man
alone lacks this gift. It is not neces-
sary that a person knowing nothing of
the art of swimming should drown, if
he will depend upon the powers for
self-preservation with which nature 3
has endowed him. When one of the
inferior animals takes the water, falls
or is thrown in, it instantly begins to
walk as it does when out of water.
But when a man who cannot “ swim ”
gets into the water he makes a few
spasmodic struggles, throws up his
arms, and drowns. The brute, on the
other hand, treads water, remains on
'gible. In order, then, to escape drown-I
ing, it is necessary to do as the brute '
does, and that is tread or walk water.
The brute has no .. advantage as to his
relative weight in respect 'to 'the water
over man, and yet the man parishes
while the brute lives. Nevertheless,
any man, any woman, any child, who
can walk on the land may also walk in
the water just as readily as the animal .
does, and that without any prior in-
struction or drilling whatever. Throw
'afdog in the water and he treads (or
walks) the water instantly. The brute, -
indeed walks the water instinctively,
whcl'eas man has to be told. »

The Number of Cannibals. ,
The cannibals in the world may be
numbered” by millions. Probably a
third ofthe natives of New Guinea are
cannlbals, so are about two-thirds of
the occupants of the New Hebrides,
and the same proportion of the Solo-
mon Islanders. All the natives of the
Santa Cluz group, Admirahties, Her-
mite, Louisiade, Engineer, D’Entrecas-
teau groups are cannibals; and even
some well authenticated cases have no
curred among the “black fellows" of
N orthem Australia. The fact of a na-
tive being a cannibal does not make

must be understood that no money is .
called for, the hostess providing each
guest from fifty .to one hundred white
beans. which are supposedto represent
with them. It will be necessary to pro-
vide beforehand the articles to be sold,
or so disguised that no one may know
what he isbidding for. The auction is
more spirited if each package is found
to contain some little thing of trifling_
value, although some should be of an
amusing character. I attended onc,a
1hort time ago, where the daughter of
ant hostess was quite an artist; a num-
ber of the parcels were found to. con-
tain triflingsketches made by her. So
111a bidding became quite exciting, each
one hoping to get some specimens of
let handiwork. - A sign might be dis-
played in some prominent place say-
ing: “No mutilated beans received."
As everybody generally gets some little
louvenir, all are satisfied and usual-

West, “ but during my last trip I saw a '

“The snoring seemed to come from

closck look. Bending down, I glanced '
unde'r the body of the car and saw there
a scene which struck me as being about
the oddest I had ever witnessed. In a
hammock, which he' had evidently ‘
stolen from some door-yard in one '
forms, lay a tramp sleeping soundly
and snoring noisily. The hammock
was swung under the car, close to the
floor,- and one leg of its occupant hung
out and trailed rather close to the
I ground. In that queer bed his tramp-
ship had been ridingall night without
ticket or birth check, and with no fear

porter at the end of his journey. He
rode some fifty miles further before' he
