How Gold Rings are Made-
Gold rings aro mado from bars
nino or liftoen inches long. A bar fif
teen inches long, about two inches
wide and threo sixteenths of an inch
thick, is worth about $1,000. It would
makn 300 four ponny.weight rings.
A dozen processes nnd twenty minutes
tunc are required to change tho bar in
to merchantable rings. A pair ot
shears cut tho bar into strips. By tho
turn of a wheel, ono, two or threo
times, the guillotino blade of the shears
cuts tho bar into slices, one, two or
three-sixteenths of an inch wide. A
rolling maohino presses out tho strips
and makes them iiat or grooved, liaci
strip is then put undor a blowpipe and
aunoaled l ho oxldo ot copper comes
to tho surface, nnd is put into a picklo
of sulphuric acid, and tho bit of gold
is stamped with its quality and tho

a machino that bends it into the shapo
of a ring of any size. Tho cmU aro
soldered with an alloy of inferior fine

wh t was then the Presbyterian chnrch
f ' is village, when tho now distin-
guiihed orator was but an unknown
Ivy and a green theological student at
L-i:i'i Seminary, at Cincinnati, under
hi- f ilher. The church had been with
out a regular pastor for a short timo
ii-ioi- to 1 833, and Dr. Lyman Becchcr,
lii- "on-in-law, Kov. Charles E. Stowe,
and other professors from "Old Lano"

unit occasional services ;um hujii uu
c e mi tho littlo flock in Batavia. In
1833 Itcv. tieorgo needier was caned
to tho pastorate, and remained in
charge till 1837. It was while Ins old

Ward first entered tho pnlpit. lie had
boi-n a btudont at Lane for a year, and
wr.i "pending a week at his brother's
houso' when Judge Owen T. tisliback,
who had somehow becomo imprcssod
thai the young man had more than or
dinary ability, persuaded him to preach
on I'tio Saturday night.
When tho timo camu the sexton
light' ilthe tallow candles in the tin
(court's hanging against tho wall, rang
the 1'ieer, squeaking old bell, and so
cubed tho villagers together. It was
gfiii-rally known who tho speaker
won I be, and most of tho congroga
ti'Mi were drawn by curiosity. Many
kni"i him as a rather "green'' youth,
haii'ly out of boyhood, and full of
praii s of all kinds whenever opportu
nity nffered, and thoy exchanged glanc
es with each other as they saw "Hen
ry'' in the, box like pulpit, evidently
ui'iii' than half frightened at the or-
ileal i eiorc him. iNObouy ncro can re-
all i he text or much of tho sermon,
cl all who heard it concede that the
spe:ikt r had more than ordinary talouts.
Uncle John White, a young man
leu, says of it: "His appearance was
ag-iui-.t Mm, tor lie was a shy, boyish
ooking young nun, but betoro ho got
thio-iijh ho cast off his scare, and I
likul him belter than his brother
?! ;o. His contrast to tho stern, un-
iu! 'big Puritanic stylo of his revered
fat r was marked by all."
M . Lowe, at that timo a young la-
ly or Batavia, says: Young Beechor's
sermon was a grand effort, mnthodical
urn to and impassionato in delivery,
though he was greatly in fear and
tru biing until neatly half way
thrmuh. Then his timidity left him,
and he closed in a most ablo and happy
maniicr."
.In! n W. Ivain, the oldest of Bata
iaV citizens, was a man grown when
Bo' uher preached here, and still retains
viv l recollection ot the impression
t in i In on him. Says ho: "I liked his
jib uu 1 stylo, becauso I thought hr had
memo in him, though most of tho
youu : folks thought ho was poor tim
ber, owing to his greenness. And I
was light; for, after a hesitating pray.
er umiI a timid way of reading tho
lijinn. nnd after stumbling somo in tho
ginning ot his sermon, he warmed
up and went through his discourse
which was a doctrinal one, in a manner
strongly indicative of his futuro sue-
cer". Although not a church member,
I wi so moved that I wont up after
the congregation was dismissed and
congratulated him on his success in his
first ITort."
The old chinch was sold in 1859,
and a brick edifico erected for tho
grovx'ng congregation, and in timo tho
old building became a part of tho
'll'i'i'iltoninu houso" hotel property,
