THE
PERSEVERE.
BY JOHH BROCOrUW.
Robfrl, the Brucp, in hia dungeon etood,
Waiting the hour of doom,
Behind him the pnlsiee of Holyroorl,
Before htm a namelcps tomb.
And the foam on his lip was flecked with red,
As away to the past his memory iped,
Uocallmfr the day ot his past renown,
When he won, and he wore, the Scottish crown:
, Yet come there shadow or come there shine,
The epider Is spinning his thread so line.
"I have eat on the royal scat of Scone,"
He muttered below bis breath,
"It's a luckless change, from a kingly throne
To a felon's shameful death."
And he clenchei his hands in his mad despair,
And ho struck at the shapes that were gather
In st there,
racing bis cell in impatient rage,
As a new-caught lion paces his cage.
But come there shadow or come there shine,
The spider is spinning his thread so Que.
"Oh, were it my fate to yield up life
At the head of my liegemen all,
In the foremost shock of the battle-strife
Breaking my country's thrall,
I'd welcome death from the foeman's steel,
Breathing a prayer for old Scotland's weal;
But here, where no paying heart is nigh,
By a loathly hand it is hard to die;"
Yet come there shadow or como there shine,
The spider 1b spinning hia thread so fine.
"Time and again I have fronted the tide
Of the tyrant's vast array,
But only to see, on the crimson tide,
My hopes swept far away;
Now a landless chief and a crownless king,
On the broad, broad earth, not a living thing
To keep me court, save this insect small,
8triilng to reach from wall to wall;"
For come there shadow or come there shine
The spider it spinning bis thread so fine.
"Work ! work like a fool, to the certain loss,
Like myself, of your time and pain,
The space Is too wide to be bridged across,
You but waste your strength in vain."
And Bruce for the moment forgot his grief,
His soul now filled with the sure belief
That, howsoever the issue went,
For evil or good was the omen sent:
And come there shadow or come there slitiie,
The spider is spinning his thread so tine.
As a gambler watches the turning card
On which his all is staked;
A a mother waits for the hopeful word
Kor which her soul has ached;
It WB6 thus Bruce watched, with every sense
Centred alone in that look intense;
All rigid he stood, with scattered, breath
.Now white, now red, but as still as death:
Yet come there shadow or come there shine,
The tpider is spinning his thread so One.
?ix eevcralftimes the creature tried,
When at the seventh, "See, see!
He has spanned it over !" the captive cried;
"Lol a bridge of hope to me:
Thee, God, I thank, or this lesson here
Has tutored my soul to Persevere !"
And it served him well, for ere long he wore
In freedom the Scottish crown once more:
And come there shadow or come there shine,
The spider is spinning his thread so fine.
CRUELTY TO TURTLES.
Interesting Letter from Professor Agassiz.
We have received a copy oi the folio wing cor
respondence: "New Iork, August 7.Professor Louis Agas
siz. My Hear Sir: A society his been recently
tormed in tow State for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals. Us corporators and ollicers
are among the first gentlemen of our city, and
it has entered upon its career under the most
flattering auspices, encouraged by the almost
unanimous approval of the press and the public.
Already, during its brief existence, it has
etlected a number of reforms, and in the wide
and varied field inviting its humane labors, it
hopes 10 accomplish many more.
"1 send you herewith an article giving quite
a full account of the objects of this society, of
what it has done and proposes to do. My
special object, however, in writing is to abk
yon, on behalf of the society, to lecture before
it at some time during the coming fall, on the
turtle, with particular reference to its power of
sensation.
"Believing that the turtle, low as it is in
the scale of animated creation, is, neverthri
less, not beneath the attention of a society
which professes for its object the Buppresion
of cruelty to animals, some few weeks ago I
had arrested the captain of a vessel laden with
turtles from the Florida coast for indicting
ciuelty upon them.
"The turtles were lying on their backs, kept
without food or water, and having holes bored
through their fins or leg9, with cords run
through to secure them. On the trial of the
case, a Dr. Guernsey testified that the turtle
experienced no surlerintr from the want of food;
that it was more cruel: to place it on its belly
than on lis back, for it would live longer in
the latter position; and that boring a bole
through the leg of a turtle inflicted no more
pain than the bite of a mosquito on a human
being. The Justice regarding this as the testi
mony of an expert, dismissed the case. Subse
quently, however, the Grand Jury found a bill
aeainst the captain, and ahe subject will again
come up on the trial ot the indictment.
' This case created considerable discussion in
our city papers as to whether the turtle Is an
animal so endowed with sensation that it can
be the subject of cruelty; and some consider
that this society is going beyond the scope of
its proper duties 'in refilling the humanities so
tar down in the scale of being. By one of our
most respectable weeklies it was seriously Btated
that so little can the turtle experience pain,
that it will quietly t ubmlt to the most exten
sive mutilations with feelings more akiu to
pleasure than suffering.
"In view ot this ditlerence of opinion, and ot
the fact that, on account thereof, it is still the
conbtant practice of dealers in turtles to keep
tbem without food or water, lyiug on their
backs, their flesh pierced with cords to secure
them, this society is very delirious of having an
exposition of your views on the subject above
mentioned, assured, as it is, that no other person
can speak with equal authoiity thereon.
"From your dwtiuguished reputation ai a
scientific naturalist, lrom the time aud care you
are known to have devoted to the study of the
.lestudinata, and from the frequent examinations
voh have made ot their structure, your views
will be considered as conclusive. j
"1 very much hope, therefore, that it will ac
cord with your convenience to honor the society
with a lecture on this subject; or if not, that
you will be so kind as to communicate your
views in writing.
"With congratulations on your safe return
from your highly successful and interesting trip
to the Amazon, I have t lie honor to be, sir,
your most obedient servant,
"Henry Beroh, President."
REPLY OP PROFESSOR A(3a,SdIZ.
"Nahant, September 27. Dear Sir: It would
give mo the greatest pleasure to co-operate with
your foclety, for I sympathize heartily with the
object you have tn view.
"But my life U absorbed with other duties,
and with the best will I cannot do more than
what I have .already engaued to do.
"Excuse me, therefore, if I answer but briefly
your special questions. To-meel you in New
York and expound publicly my views upon such
subject, is out of the question.
"I need not tell jou that men have always
excuses enough to lustily their wrong doings.
So it was with the slave trade; so it is to-day
with the turtle market. And though black
nien are more likely to be protected hereafter,
their former tutlerings durinir long sea voyages
are on record, and" humanity shudder at
the tale. Whether men may ever be re
fined enough to teel their guilt when
they torment animals remains to be een,
and your society will no doubt do Its share
in educating them in that direc ion. But to say
that turtles do not sutler when dragged trotu
their natural haunu. tied that thev may not be
uble to move, turned upside down, etc. eto , is

simply absurd. It is true that they can live for
a long time without food or drink; but they do
feel pan, and are indeed very sensitive to some
injuries. That of turning them upside down,
ho one others, Is suflicient, for Instance, to pre
vent their epes from hatching. Their suffering
may be inferred from the violent and convulsive
movements to which the perforation of tholr fins
gives ilse. And yet to this proceeding dealers in
turtles generally resort in order to tie them more
closely and pack a lurger number in a smaller
Fpace. Of course, when tied in this manner,
they suffer less by being turned upon their
backs, because the fins are thus relieved from
the pressure of their whole weight; but the
best evidence I can afford that tticy suffer 19
that they die it it is mnch protracted; and yet
turtles are among the animals which resist
longest privations of all kinds. Is not the fact
that they may die merely lrom trje attitude in
which they are forcibly kept the most complete
evidence of their suffering? For what else
would cause death, if not pain and the unna
tural pressure ot parts brought into unaccus
tomed positions ?
"Having gone so far, let me call your atten
tion to the dangers arising from ill-treatment of
beef cattle bclore slaughtering them. While
In Brazil, I learned that the city of Para suf
fered from the quality of the beef sold tn the
public market, deteriorated because the oxen
and cows killed In the city were brought in trotn
a considerable distance, anil were oltcn kept
many days without food. The matter ere w so
bad that a company was fotmed to bring, by
steam, beef killed upon the iarms; and every
body lelt the difference in the condition ot the
meat and its nutritive qualities.

BILIOUSNESS.
With a greater amount of bllo in the blood
than Is natural, the result is that the eyes and
the skin begin to wear a-yellow appearance,
while various otner symptoms manliest tnem
eclves, according to the temperament, habits,
and peculiarities of the individual; one has sick
headache; another complains of a want of ap
petite, sometimes loathing the very appearance
ot food; a third has cold feet and hands; a
fourth has chilly sensations, involving: the
whole body, or running up and down the back;
a tilth is 'costive; women become hysterical,
and laugh, cry, or talk, while men are moody,
peevish, or morose. Bile is naturally of a bnetit
yellow color, but as a man becomes more bili
ouj.it grows darker, and is at length as black as
tar, cuusine a stale ot mind which the old
Romans called attrability, attra meaning black;
a scowl is on the countenance, and the person
is Ill-natured and fretful, finding fault with
everybody and everything; hence, when a man
is cross he is bilious, and ought to be pitie l, and
at the same time be made to take an emetic.
The ill natured are never well; they are
"bilious," the system is clogged, the machi
nery does not work well, and both mind and
body are disordered. The safest and best
method of getting rid o! biliousness is steady
work in the open air for six or eight hours
every day, working or cxcrciniiig to the extent
of keeping up a gentle moisture on the skin.
This moisture conveys the bile away out of tbe
system. The same result will be accomplished,
but not so well, by a good steam bath, or by
wrapping up in bed, drinking hot teas, thus
"getting up a perspiration;" but the atmo
sphere of the room should be pure, and the clot
for. several days should consist of coarse bread
and fruits. Medicines which "act on tbe liver"
will do the 6anie thing, but they should be
advised by the physician, when other means
have failed.
The office of the liver is to withdraw the bile
from the blood. It is the largest workshop of
the body, and is at the right side, about the
lower edge of the ribs. Wuen it does not doits
work it is said to be "torpid" asleep and
medicines are given to stimulate It, wake it up,
make it act, work faster than common, so as to
throw off the excess of bile. When it does not
withdraw or separate the bile lrom the blood
the skin grows yellow, also the whites of the
eyes, and the man ha9 the "yellow jaundice."
When it scpaiates the bile from the blood, but
retains it within iteelf, constipation ensues,
appetite is lost, spirits become despondent, and
the person Is languid, lazy, fretful, and irritable.
The liver is in a sense like a sponae, and the
bile may be pressed out of it as water out of a
sporge, by pressing the ball of the hand over
tbe region of the liver downwards, from hip to
"pit of stomach," two or three minutes at a
time, several tinted a day. This is a good remedy
in dyspepsia, and also relieves the stomach of
wind, giving immediate and grateful relief
sometimes. HaWs Journal of Health.
TURPENTINE, AND HOW IT IS OBTAINED.
Along the Atlantic coast, from New Jersey to
Florida, there is a belt of sandy land, varying
in width and covered with forests of pine, that
aie the Bource of supply tor one of the iinpoitunt
products of American industry, lu Carolina
and Georgia this belt extends inland from titty
to one hundred miles, is an almost unvarying
level, except where intersected by streams, aud
though bairen of agricultural products, is yet
by no means a poor and desolate region. It is
here the turpentine and tar of commerce are
obtained, and these immense forests, apparently
interminable, aside trom the valuable timbir
they afford, yield such quantities of naval stores
as to be tne scene ot nveiy industry ana success-
lui enterprise.
The turpentine plantations usually embrace
seveial hundred acres, which are cultivated by
te owners, or leased out to others, at a certain
rate per thousand boxes. The boxes are small
cavities, cut in the trunk of the tree, as near the
ground as possible, each box containing about a
quart of crude turpentine. From two to tour
boxes are formed In each trunk, according as it
is larger or smaller.
This work is done in January and February,
before the sap begins to run, an J is accomplished
by an axe, shaped so as to produce a concave
form to the box.
At intervals ot a few days through the season,
the workmen cut away a small porliou of the
bark, above the boxes, with a concave gouge,
called a scraper; and this process is continue!,
year after year, until the tree is peeled to the
lieighl ot twenty or thirty feet, when it cea-e,
irom the inability of the laborer to reach auy
higher.
As soon as this bark is taken off the sap runs
down into the receptacle. It takes from rive to
seven weeks for a box to rill. A3 soon as the
box fills, the tin pontine Is scooped out and put
into a bucket. Each laborer has a bucket, and
goes round to the different trees until his bucket

for the purpose. About September the
sap stops running, and the season is over.
uunng a year, or Beason, eacn oux win yieiu at
least six quarts of turpentine. The first year's
product is called "virgin dip," and is the most
valuable, on account oi tne excellent quality or
the rosin it makes.
During the second and subsequent years tho
sap becomes inspissated, lorming a wnite in
crustation on the peeled surface of the tree, and
not running down into the boxes. It is then
removed by being 6craped off with a thin, nar
row blade oi wood. Mcu and boys go around
from tree to tree witty, a cart containing barrels,
and gatuer the turpentine irom tne noxes as
often as they are filled. This crude material is
now ready lor distillation, wnien is tue next
step in the course of manufacture.
A turpentine still Is rather a rude and primi
tive affair, as usually constructed, consisting
mainly of a large boiler, holding from six to ten
barrels, built In a brick-work furnace, and con
nected by a pipe to a worm or condenser.
The brick-work is built to the height of about
ten leet. On tbe top is a platform, and the crude
material Is hoisted from the ground to the plat
form, and then emptied into the boiler. . From
this boiler there is an tron pipe about a foot In
diameter, leading to a largo wooden vat, stand
ing alongside the still proper. The vat is more
than ball tilled with water, which is necessary
m case ot fire. Connecting with the pipe from
the boiler Is another one constructed in a zig
zag manner and extending to the bottom of the
vat. As soon as the boiler w filled with the
crude turpentine the tire is started in the fur
nace, and the liquid commences to boil. The
turprnline arises In steam trom this crude ma
terial, lhe steam rise ftnd extends through
one pipe ir.to the vat. The wafer being heavier
I hnn the turpentine, the two will not mix, and
the water goes to tlie bottom, while the turpen
tine remains at the top. At the bottom of the vat is
a spiggot and.a trough. After the water is runoff,
tie turpentine descends aud passes through,
to barrels placed underneath. Tbe fluid is then
ready for market. Alter boiling the ciude tur
pentine until the steam ceases to ascend, the
material in the bottom is called rosin. As soon
as the turpentine ceases running thp steam
pipes are takm off, and the boiling rosin skimmed
by means ot a wire net attached to a loug
l.andle. This skimming is done for the puroose
of taking all the dirt that collects with the'tur
pentine while In the boxes of the trees. As
soon B9 it is skimmed it Is let off from the boiler,
by means of a small pipe, to a large trough,
where, after it cools, It is placed in barrels and
ready for market also. This distillation of tur
pentine Is very simple, but requires great care.
Fire is the great danger.
While the spirits produced by distillation arc
of nearly unilbim quality, there is a great differ
ence tn the value or the refuse, or rosin. Some
is white and nearly transparent, some dark and
of little value. In fact. Immense quantities
accumulate round every still, simply because it
is not worth the cost of transportation, though
if it were brought to market U might be used loi
a variety of purposes. Before the distilled tur
pentine is put into barrels they are coated with
a preparation of glue, to prevent leakage. Tbe
general practice is for several parties to carry
the raw product to the still, selling it at a stipu
lated price, or paying so much per gallon far tho
spirits distilled.
Wilmington, North Carolina, is the great centre
of the turpentine trade. North Carolina, in fact,
devotes more attention to this branch of indus
try than any other State, her whole eastern sec
tion being an immense pine region.
Of the importance of turpentine and itsklndred
products to art and manufactures we will say
nothing, as its many uses are well known. There
are Improved modes of obtaining it, which will
preveut the great waste of the present system,
and tend to increase the supply and diminish

The Ejebrow. The eyebrow is one of the most
expressive features in the human face. We
must all of us have observed how prodigiously
its linea vary; how lu one case the eyebrow will
slant upwards from the root of (be nose towards
the temple as in the popular idea of Mepuis
lopheles or the reverse way. tho eyebrows ele..
vated where tbey approach more nearly towards
each other, and drooping as they near the tem
ples. This slant will very commonly bo exhi
bited in devotional pictures of saints and others
engaged tn supplication. Sometimes, again,
these features will adhere to a line which
is very nearly or quite straight; and some
times very commonly, by-tne-wav there
will be an angle at or near the middle of
the eyebrow, an obtuse angle with the paint
upward". Lastly, this feature will oc
casionally describe tbe segment of a circle,
presenting that arched form which is so much
and so generally admired. All these foims, and
endless variations ot each ot them, are taken by
the eyebrow, and not one of them without a
gieat influence on the expression of the-eye
au influence, too, increased immensely by those
lines and wrinkles by which the eyebrow ! sur
rounded, or into which parts ot it are merged,
as in the case of that powerfully marked upright
line so often to be observed at the junction ot
tbe eyebrow with the nose. What a tale these
wrinkles tell when anxiety and apprthen-ion
lie behind them ! They get to be set, when
such anxiety has lasted long, and impart to the
eye a fort ot strained look.'which it is distress
ing to w itness. We get what is called an anxious
eye, but is it the eje that Is so anxious, or may
it not be the rigidity of the surrounding parts ?
When the good news comes, and anxiety is
at an end, that subtle dragging ot the skin into
almost invisible wrinkles censes, the forehead
relaxes, the permanent wrinkles become less
deep, and people say "his eye brightened at
the good tidings." Does the eye brighten in such
a cate? Is the brilliancy on its surface sus
ceptible of increase or decrease under tbe influ
ence ot tranxient emotion ? That lontf-cndurud
sorrow or illness may dull the surlaee of the
eye, and that protracted prosperity andsplen
aid health may give it brightness, is not denied;
but are these Lot permanent influences ? Can
any one say that a momentary triumph will
make the surface of the eyeball become sud
denly more polished than it was belore, or a
! sorrow make it less so r I believe that the
1 chief tangible power of expression with which
: the eve itselt is gif ted lies in its capability ol ra-
j pld movement. When our supposititious piece of
good news arrived, it la prooaoie tnat at the
mon.cnt when the muscles of the face relaxed,
I and the skin becarre loosened from previous teu
! sion it seems probable that at that moment tho
eyeball would move sharply, atd this tnove
1 n. ent causing its brilliant suriace to eaten the
light, would make it seem to brighten. This
! power ot movement in the eyeball is of great
importance. In an expression of cunning, the
i eye moves to tbe corner of the eyeaperture, aud
j in anger it will move aud stagger as it were lor
' an instant, before fixing on the object which has
excited the passion. Now, every movement ol
, the eye causes a change of position in the light
, which the brilliant surface retlecs, so tuat ir
: seems to be brighter than before. It so hap
: pens that a'l tbe&e regions outside the ecare
; remarkable for their flexibility and capacity for
i change. Let us think lor a moment how
they aie all convulsed and altered by what
we call a frown. The brow is lowered in an
instant, and its shape aud position actually
changed, while the skin which moves with it
descends tn a terrible and ominous fold acioss
the eye, which is by this actually reduced in
size; tue deep wrinkles between the eyebrows
become deeper yet, and many more are forcibly
i developed in new fucKetings ot tne lorcnean
I not there before; and, as the brow is propelled
j lorward, as well as drawn downwards by the
j action of the frown, a shadow is ca-t into the
dark cavity over tne eve w uicn adds to trie sinis
ter e fleet of the whole. Presently the "brief
madness" passes away, the brow relaxes, the
dreadful lines and puckers are smoothed away
from the forehead; the eyelid, pressed down
before, rises, and the expression of that eye, so
tierce and terrible just now, is once again calm
and serene. And how much, I cannot help ask
ing, does the tje itselt go for in all this For
sometliing, no doubt; tor, if it had not becu
there, the frown would have been nothing; yel
in that great convulsion it did not itself change
peiceptiblv. It was changed, no doubt, but
that was by the wonderful convulsion which
passed over the regions surrounding it; but the
white spherical object with the dark soot in the
midst was still there behind there, when the
brow aescenaeu iieavy witn. rage there, waen
the cloud lifted, when the forehead became
smooth. Hnd tbe man himself again a reason a
