IIK FIREPLtCK AND ITS IIISTOUV.
Tbere are some people who delight la con
cturing as to what we should have all done
there had been no water In the world; but
is not probable that tnauy give a thought
t to how society could have existed, or,
ideed, ever bave been formed, without the
!d of fires and fireplaces.
Say what we xuay of the many benefits
hieh have been conferred on humanity,
nding lo make them more civilized, it is
ertain that there would have been very little
f the domestic feeling of the love of cheer
i society and "neighborly visits" if it had
Dl been lor ine lirepiace. A cnecrtul open
ood Are, or a prate filled to the br'tn with
te "bituminous," presupposes a lively cora-
any present, and a good supply of humor
nd kindly feeling generally. Sidney Smith's
ecclpt for happiness is pretty generally
nowu "a cheeiiul lire, a kettle simmerini?
a the hob, a paper or sugar-plums on the
jfiantel-pieee, and a novel in his hand." It
vill be seen that a "clieerlul lire" comes first,
nd well it may, tor what would the sweetest
uear plums, the brightest kettle, or the mot
nteiesting novel be, unaccompanied by a
lazing lire to blied cheerfulness and warmth
irouud the apartment?
Trie early records of all aorcs refer to a time
'hen tire was unknown. When Magellan
isiced the Marian Islands, in 1021, the in
abitants believed themselves to be the only
er-ons inhabiting the globe; were without
verything which we regaid as necessaries,
nd bad never heard of Are. On the occasion
I' their huts being consumed, they believed
It was alone through the agency of an animal
:vho had devoured them, lhere is an old
gend as to the origin of fire, which is plea-
ant to believe, though, of course, not true.
t is said that Vulcan coming upon some
turning trees one day (which had been fired
iy a tnundeibolt), invited his mends to
draw up by the lire ;" that they did so, and
aus was Held the first social meetinz ot man
kind.
The earlier race of mankind lived in caves,
making files in the middle of them, the smoke
oicg out through a hole in the top. The
Egyptians had hearths in the centre of some
t their rooms, on wuicu they made fires; to
varm the others, they carried around a lighted
charcoal from one room to another. During

Sion, makes mention ot "the faces that were
blackened by trie smoke that comelh out of
the temple." The fuel most generally used
among iue Greeks was green wood; on
dsys of ceremony they burned fraarant
substances. The Romans made fireplaces,
bit could not get rid of the smoke nuisance.
Trie principal fiieplace in a Roman
house was in the caldarlum or sweating-
room of the bath. It wad something like a
furnace, called a hypocaust, and had pipes
connected ft ith it which led to the upper
stor es, giving warmth to them. These pipes
had covers over them while the green wood
was burning ; when it had burned to charcoal
the covers were removed and the warm heat
allowed to escape. Those rooms which could
not be heated in this manner had charcoal
burnb-g in the middle ot them on a brazier.
Some of these biaziets displayed very fine
workmanship. There is one at the present
time in the museum at Naples, twenty-eight
inches square, which has lour towers, one at
each angle, fitted with a lid that can be raised
by a ring.
Then the Romans landed in England they
found the inhabitants living in huts or caves,
without chimneys to them, and hall the time
stifled with the smoke from their fires. The
Welsh historian Oyraldus, gives us the fol
lowing amusing fireside picture of life in that
line : ,
"Families inhabit a large hut or house,
which, having a fire in the midst, serves to
warm them by day, and to sleep round by
nicht." lie describes the "bands of young
aen who followed no profession, visiting lami
f lies to whom they were always welcome, and
f passing the day with the most animated cheer
I 1 ulness. At night, sinking into repose on a
thin covering ot dried reeus, spread round tne
great fireplace in the middle, they lay down
promiscuously, covered only by a coarse made
cloth, called Crycban, and keeping one an-
f other warm Dy lying close togetner; and,
I when one side lost its genial heat, they turned
about, ana gave tne cnuiysiue to ine nre.
The great men endeavored to improve on
thii custom during the day. A Welsh prince
bad an, officer in bis court, called a 'fast
bearer,' whose duty it was, at meal times,
when his master was seated at table, to sit
with his back to the fire, and keep the princely
feet warm and comfortable by cherishing
them in his bosom." During this period the
majority of people, who could not aflord to
have a fire, kept warm during the day by
active exercise, and at night by sleeping
close together.
We find the first mention of coal made in
the year 1230, when King Denry the Third
granted a charter to some of the residents of
Newcastle to dig for it; but there was a great
prejudice aga'nst its use, as many supposed it
to be dangerous to health. It was not gene
rally used until the seventeenth century. In
the meantime, the pipe for the escape ot
smoke was modified so as to become what
we now cal! a chimney. An old writer of
about this time, by the name of Leland, in
gpeaking of Bolton Casule, says :
"One thynee I muche notyd In thehawle
of Bolton, how chimeneys were conveyed by
tunnells made on the eyds of the walls be
twyxt the lights in the hawle, and by this
means, and by no covers, is the smoke of the
the barth in the hall strangely conveyed."
Soon after this chimneys were generally
adopted.
There is an old saying to the effect that
"one good fire heats a whole house." But
this is only applicable to ttaa houses of the
poor in the ohlen time. Only one good Are
I Vas kopt up In the houses of the rich, and
that was enjoyed by the master and hU
tanii'y. Whlie they were warm and coinfori
nbh', the servants were Siiivering down pHim.
lint this shivrrh g on their part wai not dis
liked, as it was considered etleminata to feel
the need ol puch a luxury as a lire. Tho
future historian, in looking over rvnek and
the other comic papers of this generation, in
which the "high-lite-below-stairs" doctrine
is fully sot forth, will certainly not uccuse
the "help" of our day as being particular
believers in the stoical doctrine. Henry the
Eighth, it is said, orce gave the revenues of
a convent he had confiscated to a person who
gave him a seat near the lire, where he could
be out of the dratt.
So great was the prejudice against coal
when it was first introduced, that the House
of Commons petitioned the Crown, in I'Mfi, to
prohibit the burning of the "noxious article."
'J hero was a proclamation issued to stop its
sale, which did not do any good, however.
A commission was appointed to visit the
houses, and see who burned coal, and to break
up the furnaces of those win did. A law was
passed making it a capital offense to burn sea
coal in London, and only allowing it to be
used in blacksmith shops out of the city. It
took three centuries to break away this
foolish prejudice against coal.
It is e'ngular to think that there has been
but little improvement in grates from the
time they were first introduced. As we sit
in front ot our grate-fires in this nineteenth
century, we may tLink we" are far nhoad of
our aucient brethren In the art of warming;
but. we are mistaken. The same objection
which was made against the grate hundreds
of venrs ago, when it was first invented, still
hoids good, viz., that while one side is being
toasted, the other is Ireezinar.
Mr. Emerson has said in one of his essays,
that for every step civilization takes forward,
she takes one backward; and, doubtless,
there is much truth in the assertion. The
good old fashioned open fireplace is gradually
being done away with, and even grates are
going out of vogue. We have in their stead
a huge black thing in the middle of our
rooms denominated a stove. If old Vulcan
had never cara across the pile of burning
trees we have mentioned, but should descend
among us in our day, and chance to pull upon
one o: these same stoves, it is hurdly proba
ble (at least in our bumble opinion) there
would be sufficient beauty or cheerfulness in
its appearance to justify him in inviting his
friends around it for conversation and social
enjoyment. JV. T. Home Journal.
