The little spot of land rising in the
South Seas called Vsabel Isle is divided
among several 8'vnge tribes tlmt aro
continually at war with cadi other. A
terrible masHacre occurring in a portion
of the inland named .MaLaga, the suf
ferers adopted, as a means of defense
against futmc surprises of a similarly
unpleasant nature, the custom of sleep
ing in houses built in high trees, though
living by day in the ordinary open
bamboo huts. When the Ilev. Coler
idge Patterson, Iiishop of the Melane
sia Islands, visited Mahaga, Le was
very curious to inspect these human
nests in the summits of the loftiest
palm3. They were situated in a swamp,
that for greater safijtx w re ;ui rounded
by a strong wall. The lower boughs
of the trees selected for habitation had
been lopped od, k-aving only the high-c-stjas
a platform for the bouses. A
pbiniMiue I t down from the veranda
of one of these hou-.es to the ground
showed the distance to be 04 feet.
The ladders leading up to the houses
were planted upon the top of the wall.
'J hey consisted of a bamboo pole in the
ceatre. to whi'-h c 03 -p: c ab mt t o
t'eet long were lashed by vines. To
steady these, and also to hold on by,
thre"veie double sets of pliant vine
stems stretched along th" whole length.
One lid der wr-.s found to measure CO
feet. A n tl:er of 50 fetl had forty-two
rounds or cross-piece?, .'it unequal dis
tances apart. I j and down these tiz
zy ladder the native men, women, and
cli'M'en run like monkeys, never uing
their hand", but trusting entirely to the
sure plantingof their feet. At first the
Bishop dared not attempt an accent,
and while he stood wondering at the
fearlessness of the climbers, he saw a
woman go up with a heavy burden on
her back as if it w:us the easiest thing
in the world, and not owe staying
her-, if with her hands. A sailor in the
company of the Ilishop who -was per
fectly at home in the shrouds of a ship
asceiided one of the ladders, and when
he came down confessed : '"I was so
afraid my legs shook, doing aloft is ;
nothing to it.'r At another time the
JJisN.p himself managed to reach one
of the nrlHre.il huts, lie found it in :
nn inexpressibly f.lthy condition. The
tt;r -is made f matted bamboo, and
the roof and sides were of palm-leaf
thatch. Th? roof was low, and thrre
were no .peitutes for air and light.
Everything was grimy with soot and
dirt, "while the" noise of squalling
babUs, the singing end scolding of
w):nen and t'ue t hatter of all the r.a
tivi s toother, i.iad the place a very
pandemonium. A brief stay in the
woit'i rf'.il nest convinced the liishop
that it was much more comfortable to
sleep in a hut on the ground, where
dur;'ig the night the singing and
spialling of women and babies above
him sotuuled as if they were in the
clouds.
IIXTRACTlNfl 'EEMF.S OH BlTS OF
Ir.. A simple and usually successful
mode of extracting a needle or any
piece of steel or iron broken off in the
tlesii is accomplished by the application
of a simple pocket magnet. An ac
quaintance of ours had a little daughter
w ho recently broke a needle ofT in her
hand. A surgeon was called, who
iua le several eifurts to find the needle
by probing and incision, but without
success. After the surgeon had left,
the mother conceived the idea of trying
a magnet; one was procured, and a Her
oiis or two applications of it t'ue broken
fragment was discovered attached to
theVngnot. The idea will be of spec
utility to woikers in iron. Machine
shop surgeij- is not the most delic ate
or lea -t painful, though men undergo
it it.! I.r r than stand the hss of time due
to an inflamed rye or festered finrrer.
Irrm filings have a way of imbedding
themselves in the eye, which defies al
most every ordinal' means for their
extrication. Tor their removal, a
Pinal!, blunt, pointed bar of steel, well
magnetized, will be found excellent,
and we should recommend that work
men liable to such injuries keep such
nu in-trument about. It would be a
good plan to insert such a bar in a
poi'knifv.', in a manner similar to a
Ma le.

ray," writini; to tli-3 LoalsvUle Courier
Journal of how nione ia made at the
Treasury Department, sys : "Take a $1
Treasury note and look at it. There is a
fine steel engraving of Washing-ton the
man, not the city ia the middle of the
iiote. In the left-hand corner there is
The Landing of Columbus. There is fine
lace-trork for the denomination, and the
note has lace-work border. Different arti
sans made these designs. It is not all the
work of one engraver, for each one has his
specialty. No engraver can make two
plates exactly alike, no more than the same
man can paint two portraits so alike but
what there will be some little 6hade or line
in one that does not exist in the other.
So, after the engravers make designs for
the notes and the Secretary has accepted
the design, the plate, being of hard metal,
is subjected to a cylinder of solid plate.
The cylinder is laid on the plate, and sub
jected to a pressure of from one to twenty
tons. As the plate is depressed, so are the
figures and characters raised on the cylin
der, which then undergoes a hardening pro
cess, and the plates for the notes are taken
from the cylinder. From these all onr
notes are printed. By this process every
note printed is exactly alike, and
counterfeits can be easily detected. These
plates and cylinders can be used constantly
for three months, when the plates are re
touched by skiHful workmen, who have an
apartment especially devoted to their
branch of work. In this room there are
many beautiful specimens of fine steel en
gravings, for our country took the prize at
Vienna for such work.'
TWO DATS AND NIGHTS OX A BAR.
liEN HOCK.
Tl.rce Plymouth (En.) residents have
just encountered experiences which they
will never forget as long as they live.
On Saturday, Feb. 20, they started in a
boat for a fishing excursion, and in the
course of the afternoon landed on the
Mewatone, a high-o:-.t, desolate, and barren
rock, five miles from Plymouth. When
tiicy had been ashore half an hour they
discovered, to thuir consternation, that
their boat had broken adrift and floated
away. The fact t'at the boat was the only
means of reaching the main land was an
other source of anxiety, for it aLso con
tained their flailing gear, provisions, and
npper co3t3. They were thus on an in
hospitable reek wit'ioat food, shelter, light
or means of making signals. There they
remained all through the black night, and
next day being Sunday their prospect of
deliverance was then very small. 11ms,
although exhausted with exposure and fam
ished with hunger, they had to pass th
second night on the rock, and the coldest
night there had been for a month, which ia
saying a good deal. Meanwhile the fami
lies of the amateur fishermen suffered
great anxiety, but no search was organize!,
as it was not know what direction they had
taken. On Monday, however, a fishing
boat passed near enough to be hailed, and
the poor fellows were rescued from their
little island prison, which would probably
have proved fatal at least to one of them
had another night been passed on it.
OAS EXPLOSION.
A tremendous and destructive gas explo
sion occurred recently in Great Lister
street, Birmingham. So far as can be as
certained, there ha been a leakage from
the wator mains in the street for some time
past, and this caused a subsidence of the
soil of the roadway, forming a cavity be
neath the surface. It is believed that tha
sinking of the earth tore away a service-,
pipe from the main of the Birmingham and
Staffordshire Gas Company, and thus a
large cscapo of gas took place. The gas
whic h hud accumul ited in thi3 cavity, and
in the sewer adjacent it is believed, was
fired by a person throwing a lighted fuse
into a hole which had formed in the road
way. Instantaneously a terrible explosion
took place, followed by two other explosions
at other portions of the street, right and
left. At the scene of the central explosion
the'eai th was torn up, and shortly a chasm
twenty-five feet in diameter and eight feet
in depth was formed. The other explosions
took place at "man-holes" connected with
the sewer, the covers of which were blown
away and the pavement tore up. Many of
the houses and shops in the neighborhood
have been sever. iy d im iged, and four or
five persons have sustained injuries more or
less severe.
A TAUTAK TENT.
A writer on the Tartars says : Their
tents are made of felt, stretched on a frame
work of thin curved strips of wood six feet
long, which folds up for the camels to car
ry, and when opened out take the form of
a segment of a circle. Four of tlie frames
form the circular side of the tent ; and on
the top are placed curved rafters which
concentrate in a hoop three or four feet in
diameter, which is the roof-tree and chim
ney. As soon as it is all bound together
with camel's hair ropes, nothing short of a
tornado will make it budge. When the
bright fire of the snxnul (a shrub which
serves as fuel here,) throws its ruddy light
over the bright colored carpets, nigs, and
cushions which are so spread within, and
lights up the arms and cooking utensils,
the saddles and bridles, Tartar guitars, and
various household articles which are
hung upon a light trellis of wood covered
with thick white felt, there are less pleas
ing interiors to be seen not far from Lon
don or New York than the kibitka of the
Tartar.
Some months since a large poster, bear
ing the startlig caption, "A man found
dead," was seen posted in a conspicuous
place in San Patricio County, Texas, the
heading having 1ecn adopted by Mr.
rhelps, the owner of a nmall country store
in the Bowles neighWhood in that coun
ty, in order to attract special attention to
an advertisement of his merchandise. A
few days inee his own lo!y, bathed in
blood, was found at the thrushoM of hi
tore, Mr. Phelps having been aMinated.
