NEW METHOD or Bronnra GRAIN. — A plan haa been submitted to the French Academy for storing wheat in portable sheet-iron granaries, in which a vacuum is maintained equal to at least three or four inches of mercury, this being suffi cient to destroy all insect life, (although more vacuum is preferred), aid to in sure the evaporation of any niqistnre in the grain. Tlje apparatus is of cylin drical form, placed vertically, and with convex top and bottom, the top pro vided with an opening through wludK the inlet of grain is led, with a waive pipe through which the air is exhausted, and with a gauge bv which the degree of exhaustion is indicated. "The grata is removed through an opening in the bottom. In an experiment where TTvia# insects where introduced m large quan tities with the grain, it waa f.uma that they were all ki led without doing any mischief, and at the end of six month* the wheat waa found to be in as gixxfl condition as at the outset—JiVic York Daily Bulletin, SHEEP.—A farmee put into hi* van! 300 sheep that weighed an average of 99 pounds each; he fed them 120 days, ana they gained in that time 120 pounds each—in all 8,700 pounds for the flock. He fed them for sixty days all the straw thev would cat, and one pound of corn each per day; for the next sixtv days he fed them all the hay they would eat and the pound of corn each. This gives, in all, two bushels of corn (120 pounds'! for each sheep, and probably two pounds, or 2 1-2 lbs. of hay for each sheen for 60 days—say 2 1-2 lias, of hay each—in all 250 pounds per day—or 150 pounds for each sheep. Then we have, com at one cent per pound and hay at sls per ton, jast eight rents per pound for the 29 pounds of mutton and wool produced. If the manure made, paid for the trouble and straw consumed. Then he had, in addition to his gain of twenty-nine pounds, each sheep (which, as has been stated, was paid for in hay and corn at eight cents per pound t.'the increased price per pound that the sheep would bring on the first day of February, when fat. over their price on the first day of Decemlier, when they went into the yards—and generally this would be from 50 to 100 per cent advance. STIC* TO THE FARM.— Miss Marv A. E. Wager of Moore's Rural says she is quite sure that the more a person knows of life in great cities the greater empha sis will he or she giTe to the adrice con tained in the head line, and for these reasons: The majority of country boys are in no sense of the word fitted or prepared for participations ia thw rival ry and competition of business in the city. They would find themselves as much out of their sphere or groove for usefulness as a statesman would to'be placed in command of a ship. Or to make the illustration more pertinent, they would succeed in the city in sbout equal measure with the citr men who go to the country to get rich farming, and yon know how that is. Hundreds of young men come from the country to the city weekly in search of work. I see them anxiously walking the streets, or standing at the street corners in a brown study. Often times they are robbed of their little store of money; decoyed into hells where in a single hour they learn more of the ways of death than would have come to them in an entire life time elsewhere. Ah! but yon wouldn't be seduced from truth and virtue! Perhaps not; bnt granting you to be firm as the everlasting hills in righteousness, what could yon do to in sure success? Can von set type? Can you keep books ? Do you understand commercial business ? Can yon write a booh review worthy of the book? What do you know of art, or science, or of any one branch of either? Have you a well defined idea, or a half defined idea of just what you wish to do? If so, what qualification do you carry with it? To leave the farm for the city is as fool ish and dangerous, in most cases, as to jump overboard far from shore, when ;ou are morally certain you do not know tow to swim. Shakespere's Handwriting. It is nothing lew than marTelons that a man who wrote as he wrote—and alto gether, no man ever wrote like him— that a poet, the anthor of such plays and such poems; that a man possessing so many friends and admirers, with whom his correspondence must have been extensive, should not have left a single line behind him traced by his own hand. Of all his poems and plays here does not exist a page, a line a sin tie word, in manuscript. Ail Shakes peare's manuscript plays could not have perished in the fire that destroyed the Glebe Theatre. The author must have made little account of them himself; but how great would our estimation be of a single act of [any one of Shakespeare's plays, in his own handwriting! We nave just now among us a parallel to the tulip mania. Thousands of dollars are willingly paid for a picture which the same number of dimes would once have purchased. Rather, let us say that the dimes were given for the picture, and that the dollars by thousands are given for the painter's name. Well, wliat would not be willingly paid (for the sake of Shakespeare's name) for the original manuscript say of " Hamlet"? There would be a fierce fight among competi tors for even a single passage. We fancy the lines beginning with " The quality of mercy is not stained," or those that open with " She never told her love," and hundreds of others, could not be had for dollars covering each letter. What a contention there would be for the first love letter, addressed to any one. A costly holograph! Alas ! there are neither lines nor letters. All that has been saved of Shakespeare's hand writing is confined to a couple of signa tures of his name to certain deeds, and in tliose superscriptions the name is spell ed differestly. Even the forgers have not dared to produce a letter by Shakes peare. Rreaiing np a Waterspout. The ship Rhine, a sailing vessel from London, encountered an immense water spout alxuit 1,200 miles out. One of the seamen, describing the phenomenon snys the wer.ther had Ixxui squally but , the wind had calmed, and the sea was going down. The watch below, tired out had jnst turned in when the officer of the deck yelled, "all hands on deck turn out quickly." The sailor who tells the story continues : I jumped up as quickly as I could, hastened aft to the mainmast. The crew turned off in different directions like madmen. 1 noticed that the faces of most of tliem wtre white as chalk, and that ths captain's was as red as blood. Mia hi* always got thst way w hen he was excited in a gale. 1 didu t know what was tlie matter, and as 1 looked around me at the eonfuaion, the cause for which I fouldn't see, 1 felt my heart do what it hadn't done fi* seventy years beat against my rib*. j 1 saw the stHsiiid mate and naked him i what was the matter. He answered me by tolling n# to go to the main brace, or he would pitch me overboard. 1 went there pretty quick ; ' Ixvauge 1 was afraid of going overboard, but lx cause 1 felt that aoinethiiig terntile was j going to happen, and that even mi weight might save the ship. When 1 got to the rope a fellow standing near me said, " A the breadth of half the oqean. It was corning toward us like a steam engiue, and the water for hundreds of yards ahead of it was boil iug like water in a kettle. We bracts 1 the yards around, put the wheel hard a-port, and did everything that lay iu our power to get out of the way of the | terrible destruction that was rushing upon us. There wasn't a breath of wind stirring, and there we lay right in the path of the waterspout, unable to do the toast ibis* t*> save ourselves frmu ths death tint we felt sun- aust ( coine iu a few moments. There were about seventy steerage passengers with us the most of whom were women and children, ami the wav they aoreamed and went on was enough ! to take the heart out of any man. One old woman caught me 'round the legs aud begged of me for God's sake to ; save list, while every one was rushing f around trying to find some shield ! from the approaching crash. The cap taiu swore and went on terriblv because ) we couldn't move an inch, and seemed to be going out o? his mtud. for I saw ■ him deliberately knock a man down who waa standing near him. iJoßie of the men ran down the forecastle ladder that : thev might not see themselves die. What 1 have been telling you uow all occurred in a moment, but the water- 1 Spout had come muck nearer to us, ami wc could hear the fearful hiss and splash dfthc water as it came whirling on. NjlMt then 1 heard a young gentleman in the" cabin a*k the captain whether he gun on hoard. The captain snid ( hgyio," and the youug man's face turned i as white as snow, and 1 saw him shake all over, He put his baud to his head (find staggered toward the main hatch, and in aaothar moment he would have fallen dowu " tueen" decks, whim sud denly there was a cry from above that : sounded like the roar of a mailman. It waa l.eard above the loud roar of the surging water, and every eye was turn ed in the direction thai it came from. It came from a " shipmate" that we called "Jack." He was a smart fellow on his feet, and was a regular monkey among the rope when he got aloft in a storm. There he waa with a heavy block of wood in his hands that he held above his head, and was shouting for us to " stand from under !" He was on the main-yard-arm, the yard that 'carries the *'storm sail," you know. We all ran forward, and then the coast waa clear. "Jack"gave the block a swing and sent it dowu on deck as quick as a flash. It struck a piece of sheet-iron that lay near the main hatch, and made a terrific report that sounded like a cannon. We kept our eyes on him. for he seemed about to fall, but he caught hold of the "port bowlines" and re gained his balance. Just then the ship careened over on her beam ends, lurched hack again, and then stood steady as before. Nearly every one was thrown down, and some of the passengers were badlr hurt. As soon as we got upon oar feet we saw no more of the water spout, but in its stead the whole sea was just as white as though it was composed of soad-suds. We felt that it was over, and that the noble "Jack" had saved us by his cool-headedness, but it was some time before we could recover from the par alysis that seemed to kavo stridor us all. When we did ruror.w, w b it as on! v men can feel who knv been matched from the jaws of dentil, Wo A seemed a pleasure after that, fur it reminded us that we had life fn its.' Jri There were on board, counting officers crew, and all, about 150 persons, and if that spout had struck us it would have sent us, ship and all, to the bottom of j the sea, and no one would have known what sank us. Ever since that day I have been convinced thst the City" of Boston waa lost in this manner. I suppose the water that was in the air would have weighed 10,000 tons ; it couldn't liave been he* ; and as there was a brig sailing ten miles from ns in the direction of the waterspout 's course, and no oue on board saw it, it must have formed between us, two, and reached its immense proportions in sbout half an hour. What Tilt on Says. Theodore Tilton writes as follows to a friend relative to late scandals: Mr COlTPL\ rvivn FRIEND: Thanks for yeur good letter of bad advice. You say, how easy to give the lie to the wicked story, and thus end it forever. But stop and consider. The story i* a whole library of statements -a hun dred or more— Slß! jt would be strange if some of there are not correct, though I doubt if any are. To give a general denial to suck an encyclopedia (fl asser tions would lie as vague and irrelevant as to take up the Police Gazette, with its twenty-four pages of items, and say, " This is all a lie. * Bo extensivo a libel requires (if at all) a special denial of its several parts; and further more, it requires, m this particular case, not only a denial of things mis stated, but a truthful pianation of other things that remain unstated artd in mystery. In other words, the false story (if met at all) should be confront ed and confounded by the true one. Now, my friend, you urge me to speak, but when the truth is a sword, God's mercy sometimes commands it sheathed. If you think f do not burn to defend my wife and little ones, yon know not the fiery spirit within me. Bnt my wife's heart is more a fountain of char ity, and onehcheaall resentments. She say*: " Let there lie no suffering, save to ourselves alone," and forbids a vindi cation to the injun- of others. From the beginning she fias stood with lier hand* on my lips, saying, " Hush." So when you prompt me to speak for her you counteract her more Christian man date of silence. Moreover, after all, the chief victim of the public displeasnro ia myself alone r and so long as this is happilvtlie case I shall try, with patience, to keep my answer within my own breast, lest it shoot forth like athunderboltthrongh other hearts. Yours truly, THEODORE TILTON. How HE DIED. —The Emperor Na poleon died almost alone. His vital torces failed him at once, and there was no time to recall the friends who had but just loft him. The Prince had gone back to Woolwich to school; Dr. Gull and Father Goddard wore in London. The Prince saw his father no more alive, and the others reached the gates of Chiselhurst Park just as the Emperor breathed his last. The Empress was at the bedside, and so were four physicians. The medical men declare that the Em peror's death is dne toother causes thau the recent surgical operations. It is a sign of a narrow mind to be always in a quiver. A Terrible Story. An old proverb hath it, that "murder will out. There are many curious things in this line wrapped up in a story ! published bv the Racnunciito f iiion—a i story as full of horrors as any which : owii a Mrs. Wood could frame. The story is in the form of an affidavit made before a justice of the jxiaee in Sacra mento City. Annie Lohrv testifies that j on the llHli of February, lK. He urged the girl to lake his brother's I share of the money and keep silence, hut she refused, lie seemed half miud j ed to kill her, but finally, with revolver ' at her head, made her swear a dreadful oath that she would uot reveal the se cret of the murder for four Tears, that term being uaxued txvauac his mother j could uot leave the State until the end !of such period. The murderer went to a place near by, where were two horses, ami took a blanket from one of them and pre parts! to cover the laxly of his 1 |HK>r brother, Imt waa too overcome to do it; so the girl covered up the Ixxly. Then they left the spot. Several times | he put the revolver to her head on the i fearful journey; but finally she saved j her life. The murderer had promised to release her from the keeping of the Secret, if possible, iu less than four years. So she met him several times in the Cuiontown graveyard. Finally he released her from what she had considered binding, ' and so she just now makes this affida vit. To think of that deed! To think of the scene st the brook, w hen the mar dcrer made her wash her apron of the blood, while he washed his hands and , j was deathly sick! To think of that young girl carrying Unit terrible secret lor four years, Ix-cause she thought it binding!—no words can set it forth. We once beard Heeclier say that he would • like to know, for one half-minute the feelings of a murderer. For one lialf minute, and no tuor>; that would ho an age.

A Front street, Brooklyn, who hail lieen in prison since 25th of November last, for an assault committed upon Margaret Bradley, was released a few days sgo. He took home a half gallon of whisky, and his wife, acting under his instructions, invited several neigh i bors to partake of his hospital it v. The party became quite drunk, am! subse quently a general row ensued. Barr declared he would make the place too hot for his guests, and seizing a lamp fall of keroseue oil, poured its content* over the red-hot stove. A portion of the fluid was dashed over Alice Barker, and the room was instantly filled with flames that communicated with the dress of the woman Barker. Burr had told them at first that tliev must get out as heat thev could, or take the conse quences. Alice's screams brought as sistance, but too late to save her from injuries of a most horrible character. Her clothing was burned from herlmdy, which was blackened and blistered. Her hair was entirely burned off, her hands and legs were almost A crisp, and her face was unrecognizable. On the arri val of the police a shocking scene was presented. The oil had burned itself out without setting fire to the bnilding, but the unfortunate woman was lying on the floor, having the appearsnec, at first sight, of a mere cinder. When was found that she was still alive, she was wrapped in a blanket ami taken to the City Hospital. The physicians there pronounced her injuries inevitably fatal. Burr was arrested and locked tip to await the result. Fjrthqnake Fan. The Oregon papers are making fun of the last earthquake in that region, for it affected persona in quite differ ent ways. A young gentleman and lady were out walking at the time. About half an hour after, they returned from tlieir promenade and then learned, for the firHt time, that anything unusual hail oocured. People rushed into the street scan'ly clad. One loving hus band, who had " just stepped out to see a man on business," rushed home wfth a billiard cue that he had forgotten to replace, in his hand. His wife has ve toed all business engagements after 8 o'clock, P. M. The next little item wo take as we find it. One irascible gen tleman jumped from bed scantily attir ed, possessed himself of the cowhide, and made for the room of his boys up stairs, and rushed into it, exclaiming, " I'll show you how to be fighting at this time of night."

A Western paper affirms that among the unfortunate women lost by the Fifth Avenue Hotel fire was a near relative of ex-Collector Tom Murphy, who had voluntarily chosen to work in a menial capacity. b'sacs of Spontaneous Coiuhmdlon. The first case of alleged spontaneous combustion which attracted general no tiee hsp|M-ner beneath the body was also slightly burnt. Millet himself was at once arrested on a charge of murder, a supposed intrigue with a servant-woman furnishing the motive for the eriuie. In defence, he stated that he ami his wife had retired to rest as uausl, alien she, being tillable to sleep, went out to the Wit<\)icu, as he thought, to warm herself. He was subsequently awakened by a smell of burning, ami, going to investi gate, found the body of his wife lying in Uie manner deaorilied. In spite of this story, Millet was convicted of mur der; but, appealing to a higher court, was saved bv the pies of s|HJUtody extended on the hearth, ami the legs on the floor, resembling a log of wood con sumed without flame The Are being quenched by pouring ou water, the re mains were fouud to resemble S heap of coals covered with white ashes.

Octave I'avy does uot IUWIHHI iu finding the North Pole, or even tlx* Polar Hon, we can ntill have the conso lation that he has, iu a very early stage of the voyage, made a mot 1 tit* noting ( discovery.

The current of thia hitherto uu ktiown atream flowa in an easterly di rection along the coaat, with a rapidity of six knots an hour. M. Pavy and party followed the plain of this river towards the uortii for about 250 milea. The plain ia uniformly level, its width 1 varies from fifty to sixty milea, and it ia < 1-ordered by mountains of great height, with iuauy pcrjM udicnlar peaks. Almut eighty miles from the mouth of the river the traveller* found upon the plain the remains of wuatodoua, and on clearing away the snow iu a place where tusks were visible, they brought to light the enormous IHKIV of one of the i animals of au extinct race, in a jierfect state of preservation. The skin was covered with black and atreaked hair. f varv long and thick on the liack. The tuska measured eleven feet eight inches in length, and were curved up to a level wish the monster's eyea.

He took from the stomach some specimen* of bark and herbs, the nature of which lie could not analyse *la. New* han reached the Jewish Chroni cle of the commiftfliou of a fearful vut rage upon a Jewish family, in the I>is tnet of Michaelow. A Jew was landlord of an inn, which was olitarilr situated on the border of a WOIKI. Tfie family consisted of husband, wife, brother and fonr children. On the 15th inataut, at about six in the evening, two labor er* came into the inn ami called for some brandy, for which thejr refused to pay, aud jeeringly asked, in addition, for the loan of live roubles. As the landlord refused to lend theui any money anl (lemauded payment for the brandy, the laliorers became abusive, and ulti mately were tnrned out the h<>nse, the landlord detaining the capa of the men, no that they might be afterwards iden tified when he complained of their con duct. The hilsirers went awnr, mutter ing ominous threuts. When the inn keeper and Ilia family had leen asleep hut a short time, they were awoko by haul cries of "Fire," and on rushing out of the house thev were attacked by eight men, among whom were the two luhorcrs who had come to the inn in the early part of the evening. The landlord aud his family were thrown to the ground and l>ound, The men then set to plundering the house. When they bad ransacked the place, they caught hold of the poor landlord, his wife, brother and their younger chil dren and threw them into the midst of the burning building. One, the eldest son of the landlord, about twelve years <>f age, managed to escape into the neighboring wood. The ethers perished in tiie Homes. One of the laborers has Nen arrested, and the police are in ruStivo pursuit of the other murderers.

And the use it in put to is cue of the curiosities of natural history. Every inhabitant of tho x*ean which has a shell derives the materials of which that hard covering ia composed from the water. Besides, the lime ia accreted or rather separated from its food, aa birds do it for making a cover ing for tkeir eggs, roolluska take up the largest amount directly out of the water they breathe. Every time an oyster draws water through its gills, some of its lime, which ia held in solution, ia taken possession of by appropriate vessels and goes directly to the living membrane which deposits it, and thus the shell grows. It is assured that a single drop of sea water contains only about the ten thousand six hundredth part fa grain of lime. But the in cessant respiration of the dweller in one or two years makes a house weighing in some enses many pounds. When the animal dies most of the shells gravitate and aggregate to the bottom, where, becoming broken ami impacted into solid mases, mixed in fino earthy de pmits under immense hydrostatic pres sure and chemical forces, they become marble. All maiblo quarries are sup posed to have thus originated in the abysses of primitive sens, and were afterwards elevated to where they are found by upheaval. The women of the Attak&nas pari shed and St. Landry, Lonisiana, nave sent to market yearly since the war not less than 51, 000,000 worth of chickens and eggs, besides supplying home demands and the villagers and those who do not raise chickens in those parishes.

In souie place* this gas is so abundant that, simply by boring a hole in the ground, sufficient gas flows out capable of being utilised for the pur poKca of illumination. At Fredoina, New York, a mill had to In* pulled down, and a large quantity of gun evaporated from the broken soil, on , the bank* of Uie river t'ansdaway. A digging was made into Uie bituminous limestone, and a gasometer was erected to receive this gas, which now serves for tlie purjHihe of illuminating the lo- ' cality.

The fact was ascer tained, but, as usual, people were slow jto act upon it. Moreover, people were alarmed at the idea of explosions, aud feared that the new process, however brilliant, might be unmanageable, if not dangerous. In 1803 one of the London theatres was gas-lighted, for a few mghU, aa n experiment; and in 181*2 the flrwt gas making company in London was duly chartered. tins was introduced into New York eit* in 1823. It had been partially used in Yhibliu Ave years earlier, but wasnot j used m the street lamps until 1825. The first gas-meter was made in Ixin dou in 1820. Before it came into use gas was paii for, not by the quantity : consumed, which it was then imjviaaible to ascertain accurately, but at so much per hoar for each burner. It was ascertained that, ill 18(19, the gas-pqies iu and around Ixindon exU-nd -1 ed upward of two thousand miles, anJ are daily increasing. It was stated, at the same time, that there is a leakage of nine per cent., through the faulty joints of the pifM-s, iu the gas supply of Lon don. To make coal-gas is very easy. Most school-bovw, I suppose, know how to do it, at a few minutes' notice. Here ia the process, which 1 tried a hundred ' times or more liefore 1 was ten years ! old: Get a little hit of bituminous coal— as much a* the awe of a walnut will an swer. Pound it small, almost into dust, with a hammer or a cobble-atone. Take an ordinary tobacco-pipe (one with a long stem is preferable), and fill it with the |Miuudcd coal, iireasmg it in im tty closely with your thumb I should have said, iiearly fill it. On the top press down some tough clay, reilucinl hi the consistency of putty bv lieing teuip'rvd with a littf** water. Then put the pipe, filled with coal, and rludclv covered with the tenacious clay, ant) insert it carefully Wtweeu Uie bars of the grnte, so that the clay on the top of the howl may not t>e disturbed. Iu a minute or two, the heat of the fire orulves carbu reted hydrogen gas from tho cool in the pioe. If the top-covering of clar i imper fect, this volatile gaa will rind its way through the clay, and burn very bright ly for a few minutes; but if the covering IK- compact and complete, the gas flows out of the long stem of the pipe, which projects out of the fire, and you con im mediately see and smell it. The smell is that of escaped gaa —which ia an un pleasant and unwholesome when per ceived and swallowed in a room—and the ap]M'urance is that of a thick smoke. Then apply a lighted match to tin* va por, which, lieing inflammable, instant IT IS all aflame—burning brightly until all tbe coal in the bowl of the pipe has parted with its gas. When this is done, there is an end of the flame. Take the pipe out of the fire, remove the clay cover of the bowl, and the res iduum remaining there is coke! Now, this ia the distillation of gas from coal, which light* our bosses aud streets—onlv at the gas-works the vapor is submitted to processes which purify it, thereby producing a clearer and brighter light when burning. What is left after making the gas has a commercial value. Of these products, however, there is not apaoe to aav any thing now and here. Ilreners in England. A London correspondent of the St. lemis Hi publican savn it i surprising how manv brewers there are in Parlia ment, and what a degree of respecta bility attaches to their calling. The wine trade and brewing stand at the very head of reputable money inn king callings in this country. The wine merchant gets access to society where the dry goods man would not be ad mitted, wliero even the exclusive silk dealer < mid not enter. A lower class of people wears silk than drinks wine. Brewing is as much a staple product here as wheat growing with tts, and the brewer is above the wino morchaijt, lie may not at present servo stately boards, but he got his position in a time when he filled a jovial bowl for the nobles ; and n position nnco gained is never lost in this land of precedent. Besides, lie is a man of wealth, his product is always in demand. The brewer that represents Great Marlow has inherited his business from several generations. All the wealthy families of tho place are his kinsmen, and they come op in a right royal wav to put htm into Parlia ment. They all go and come at " the member's" beck, for on him rests tho honorable fame of the house. The tradesmen follow suit from other mo tives. When one comes to know the servility and venality of English shoi>- keeper*, he is not surprised at the con tempt that attaches to them in the gen eral estimation. They are tho most dishonest and servile class in the coun try, and notoriously open to political b ibery. CLBANSINO FEATHKB-BEDB. - When feather-bed* become ssiled anil heavy, they may be mado clean and light an follows : Rub them over with a stiff brush or broom, dipped in hot soap suds. When clean, lay them on some clean boards where the rain will fall on them. When thoroughly soaked, let them dry in a hot ssn for* six or seven successive days, shaking them each day. They should should be covered with a thick cloth during the night. If ex posed to the niglit-air, they will become damp and mildew. This way of wash ing the bed-ticking and feathers makes them very fresh aud light, and is much easier than the old-fashioned method of emptying tha beds, while it answers quite as well. An Arab Wedding Hall. A curtain drawn across tliedoorof the tent (write# a traveller in Algeria) con oca led the bride, who, closely veiled, sat within, surrounded by women. On the outside between four and five hun dred people were collected, and a clear space was kept in the middle for tin* dancers by twotuen withdrawn swords, who vigorously applied, right and left, the flat of the blade to all who pressed too forward, (hi ouo side of the ring sipiattcd the baud, consisting of two men with instruments like flageolets sud a drummer who occasionally accom panied the music willi his voice lu the centre was a middle-aged wo man, dreused in the usual dark blue cotton gnrmeuts, but decked with all her ornaments -ear-rings, bracelets and a necklace -to which sundry charms ami amulets, teeth of wild bessts, verses of the Koran sown up in little bags, and various other odds Mid ends, considered as protections from the evil eye, were suspended; u large circular brooch of silver or white wets! (the saute in form as those used by the Hootch Highland crsi confined the loose folds across her t *>nom. and a small looking-glass set in metal dangled conveniently at the end of a string of anflleieut length to allow of her admiriug her charms in detail. Her face was uncovered, and her fea tures were harsh and disagreeable, ex cept the eyea, which were large and ex pressive, with that peculiar lustrous Hpjtearnnre given by the use of a min eral paint. Her feet were liardly visible from the length of her dress, and her linger nails, together with the palius of bar bauds, were stained with henna. As soon as we had taken our stand in the front row, the musie, which had ceased for a few minutes, struck up, and the lady in the midst commenced her per formance. Inclining her head languishiugly from side to aide, she bent time with lierfeet, raising each foot alternately from tlie ground with a jerking action, aa if she , had been standing 011 s hot floor, at the same time twisting alxmt her body wiUi a slow movement of the bauds and arms. Bev.-rol others succeeded her, and danced in the same style, with an .-quid want of grace. A powerful in ducement to exert themselves was not wanting, for oue of them more than once ! received some tolerably severe blows both from a aUck and Uie flat of the sword; wliat the reason was I do not know, but suppose that either she was ' laxv or dsliced badly. While the dancing was going on, Uie . spectator* were not idle; armed with i guns, pistols, and blunderbusses with enormous bell mouths, an irregular Are ' was kept up. Advancing a step or two ! into Uie circle, so aa to show off before the whole party, an Arab would present hi weapon at a friend opposite, throw ing himself into a graceful attitude; then auddcnlv dropping the niuxxlc at Uie instant of pulling Uo* trigger, the charge struck the ground close to Uie feet of Uie person aimed at. After each ' report the women set up a long-eon- Uuued shrill cry of "lu-lu, lu-lu,'" and Uie musicians redoubled their efforts. The advance of one man is usually the t signal for oUiers to ouose forward at the same tune, all anxious to suqiaaa their friends and neighbors in dexterity and grace. Ten or a down men being crowded into a small space, sometimes not more than six feet wide, brandish ing their arms and excited by the mimic combat, firing often at random, it is not to be wondered st if accidents happen occasionally to the actors or the by stauders.

Imagine says Hudson in his address ou Jhe press, ii Free Prima repeating Hie burning Philippics from Amphipolis to Arcadia, arousing the farthest states and cities of the -Egeau isles and by the Hellespont, as the few hundreds listening in Athens' market place were aroused. Imagine the defeat at the Gulf of Pegasm telegraphed all over Greece by night, and liefore the people were sandalled for the day, learning that Philip was master of ITieaaaly. Imagine then that the voice of Demos theuea, the clarion voice, had cried to Gorintb and Arcadia, to HjiaikA and to Thebes to come; that the Preae, mvriad tongued, had sent his trumpet calls to every state where the art of Athena had won her honor, and te every eoaat where her triremes had won power; think you that it would have lief alien Greece as it dio; that her shining hair, would have swept the dust of Cheronjna; and Crsai phon needed the eublimeet defence of all history for proposing a Crown to De mos thenrs, because with integrity, vir tue, and good will he had been xeolous to secure honor and benefit to the no tion ? No!—the Peninsula would have risen to arms as Athens rose, and the voung man of Maoedon would have been stopped at the threshold of his career—perchance driven beyond the Danube; and perchance Egypt, Babylon Peraepoiis and the Puujaub might never have known the conquering footsteps of Alexander.
