Romantic Accidental Discoveries.
Many of our moat important inven
tion* and discoveries owe their origin to
the moot trivial circumstances ; from the
simplest causes the most important
effects have ensued. The ttial of two
roblx'rx before the eonrt of assizer of
the ltasses-Pvrenues accidentally led to
a most important arelueologieal * disoiT
ery. The aoeused, Rivas, a shoemaker,
and Rcllier, a weaver. by annex) attacks
on th highways and frequent burglar
ies, had spread terror around the neigh
borhood of Sisteron. The evidence
against them was clear ; but no traces
eon Id be obtained ot the plunder, until
one of the men gave a clue to the mys
tery. Divas, in his youth, had been a
*heph yd boy near that place, and knew
the legend of the Trou d'Argent, a
cavern on one of the mountains with
sides so precipitous a* to he almMt in*
accessible, and which no one was ever
known to have reached. The commis
sary of police, of Sisteron, after extra
ordinary labor, succeeded in sealing the
mountain, and penetrated to the my*
terions grotto, where he discovered an
eiiornuwu amount of plunder of every
deserivUion. The way having Iwvn
once found, the vast cavern wa* after
wards explore,! by a*van* ; aud their
csearche* brought to light a number of
Uoinan medals of the third century,
flint hatchet*, ornamented pottery, aud
the reitftiins of ruminants of enormous
size. These interesting discoveries,
obtained no indulgence for the
accused t inadvertent) pioueersof acteaoe,
who were aeuteuced to twenty years'
liarvl labor. The discovery of gold in
Nevada was made by Mormon immi
grants in 1850. Adventurers crossed
the Sierras and set up their sluice boxes
iu the canyons ; buf it was gold they
were after, and they never suspected
the existence of silver, nor knew it when
they saw it. The bluish stuff which was
so abuudaut, aud which was stiver ore,
interfered with their operations and gave
them the greatest auuoyanoe. Two
brothers named Grouch praweeeed more
intelligence than their lellow-workers,
aud were tlie real discoverers of the
Comstoek hxle ; but one of them died
from a pick-ox wound in the foot, and
the other was frozen to death in the
mountain*. Their see ret died with
them. When, at last, iu the esrly part
of 185 the surfav croppiug* of the '
lode were found, they were worked for
the gold they contained, and the silver
was thrown out as being worthless. Yet
thia lode since 1860 has yielded a large t
projxirtiou of all tlie silver produced
throughout tlie world. The silver mines
of Potosi were discovered through the
trivial circumstance of an Indian avi
dentallv pulling up a shrub, to the root*
of which were attached some particles of |
the precious metal. During the Thirty
Years' war iu Germany, the little village
of Coseiuv, in the Island of Uaadom, on
the Prussian Ixirder of tlie Baltic, wu*
sacked by the oontrailing armies, tlie
villagers escaping to the hills to save
their live*. Among them was a simple
pa-tor named Scliwerdler, and hi* pretty
daughter Mary. \> hen the danger was
over the villagers found themselves with
out houses, fixxl, or money. One day,
we are told, Mary went up the Streck
e! lx>rg to gather blackberries ; but soon
afterwards ahe ran back joyous and
breathless to her father, with two shin
ing pieces of smber, esoli of very great
suse. Sin told her fsther that near the
shore the wind hal blown away the
sands from a vein of amber ; that she 1
straightway broke off these pieces with
a stick ; that there was an ample store
of the precious substance ; and that she
hal coveted it over to conceal her secret.
The amber brought money, food, clotli
ing and c- >mfort; bnt those were super
stitions time*, ainl a legend goes that
po r Mary was burned for witchcraft.
At the village of Stumen, amber was
accidentally fonnd by a rustic who was
fortunate enough to turn np some with
his plow.— Chamber*' Journal.
White Hair.
"I- it possible for a person's hair to
tarn withm a short time?" There are
so in iny instances now on record that
there ought to be no longer any doubt
upon the subject. In the late Arctic ex
pedition nearlv every man's hair became
grayer, and in some cases white, but
MOB>ed its natural color when the men
returned to lower latitudes. In many
cases the human hair is said to have
->urned gray from grief, extreme care, or
sudden fright. During an outward pos
tage to Australia (says a correspondent)
the ship I was in suffered greatly in the
British Channel; twice we were nearly
wrecked, having lost three anchors and
two cables. The pilot who had charge
was constantly on watch, only snatching
a few minutes' sleep here and there, as
opportunity afforded. On the whole, he
had a very auxious time indeed, and
when he eventually left the ship off the
Isle of Wight he certainly looked twenty
years older. I thought his hair had de
cidedly turned grayer; this may, how
ever, have been only imagination, and
therefore ought rather to be considered
r_s an impression than actual fact
Within the last few months a fresh case
of the possibility of the color of hair
•-hanging has come under my notice.
An old gentleman, aged eighty-nine, re
siding in my immediate neighborhood,
lately died. For many years his hair
lias been perfectly white, but a fe
days before his death some of his hair
became black, giving the apoearance of
his having dark brown or black hair.
Here it is interesting to note that in his
younger days his Lair was light After
the death of this gentleman the tips of
hia hair for about an inch assumed
the original color, Incoming white
i again. I have heard of another instance
* where after death the hair turned from
white to black. Dogs seem to be affect
ed with regard to their hair in like man
ner as human beings. I lately read of
a case where a black Newfoundland dog
iWarae gray in a few weeks, and the
•rriter declares that the only cause for
this sudden conversion was grief.
Di*TM7 or a l<o*t Art.
A method of reproducing the famous,
because rare, fire gilded glass of the
Egyptians has been recently patented,
and from the results attained, it would
appear that the inventor, if be has not
discovered the ancient process, has de
vised an excellent sulmtitute. Fire
gilded glass is glaa* into which gold is so
worked that many hundreds of year*
have failed to effect any change, or to
tarnish the gold. The trustees of the
British Museum, were so pleased with
the results of the modern process, that
they accepted from the inventor, M.
D'Htissey, specimens of his recovery of
a lost art" The process consists in in
troducing gold-leaf or platinum into the
1 >ody of the glass, and amugamating the
precious metal with the glass by means
of a blow-pipe, an operation which also
serves to produce a perfectly indestrnc
tible covering to the metal and the de
signs traced. The product so much re
sembles the ancient work that the
method is likely to find a tolerably
wide field of usefulness—or, at least, of
profit to its inventor.
Lucky ftpanbh Bull-Fighters.
Spanish bull-fighters find their dan
gerous calling a very lucrative profes
sion. Thus the favorite matador of
Madrid, Frascuelo, possesses a fortune
of $400,000, a magnificent house,
and a wife considered the pretti
est woman in Madrid, and is a member
of oue of the most aristocratic clubs in
the city. On the day of a bull-fight, he
sends a messenger to* his wife after each
of his performances in the arena, the
destruction of six bulls being his usual
• ask, and twice he has been brought
home seriously injured. Frasouelo took
part in the late bull-fight before the
king and queen, and his costume was
literally covered with diamonds. Mfst
nteres't was felt, however, in the ama
teur matadors cavalry officers chosen by
the different provinces, and who showed
themselves fnlly as skillful as the pro
fessionals.

The capacity of the various coining
Mints ami Assay oflloes iu the I'uited
States will la* fullv tested during the
coming year. The law of Feb. 28, 1878,
demand* that between 2.000,000 ami
4,000,000 of the new dollars shall I*
turned out every ntontli. The offlcera
of the Mints tlunk thai 3,000,000 will
lx> the ntaximnm of proalnction for the
present, and to coin as many silver d<d
iars as that a uiouth will require brisk
work sit the Mints. M<xt of the silver
received at the Philadelphia Mint passes
through the New York Assay otllee.
There are two oouung Mints lretdc* the
one in I'hiladelplua, one in San Francis
co and the other iu ('arson City, and
assaying ami reflning are done in Helena,
Meutana ; Doise City, Idaho ; Denver,
Col., and a few other point* iu the far
West. The PUilalelptn* Mint is capa
ble of tnruing out about $1,W0,000 in
coined money a mouth ; the San Fran
cisco Mint i1.00t1.000. ami the Carson
City Mint 3500,000. The Mints eanuot,
of course, l>e given over exclusively to
the coinage of silver dollars. The aub
aidtarv coin* must be struck, ami a ixu
taiu aiuouut of gold coinage gix*s on all
the time. Gold is net vied by the gov
ernment to buy silver with, aside from
all other purpose* It is coined mostly
iu the form of double eagles. Durtug
February mouth '11,210 double eagle*
were corned iu Phtlalelphia, and twenty
eagles, twenty half -eagles, twenty three
doliar pieces, twenty quarter eagle*,
and twvuty one-dollar pieces were coined
iu the same time. The other coinage of
the Philadelphia Mint comprised
300 trade dollar*. 375.000 half-dollar*,
1,461,000 quarter-dollar*, 200 twenty
cent pieces, 064,200 dunes, 000 Ave
ceut piccee, tkk) three cent pixv*, and
010,800 oeut*.
Silver is sent froui the assay office to
the Philadelphia mint pure, or 090 tine,
which is alvutt as pure as silver cau lx\
It in sent iu large' I sirs, and, when re
ceived at tlie mint, is melted and alloyed
with copper. C-oiu silver is 000 tine.
After being melted sud alloyed, the
uietal is cast into ingots, which are sim
ply bars ef a convenient sire for hand
ling. The metal is then assayvi, to de
tenuine whether it is exactly of the
stand aril tlueues.-. Asaayiug is done by
what is known as the dry or humid pro
cess. Sample* for assay are taken while
the silver is m a tuned eouditiou, and
twoassars are ma>ie of every sjxvimeu.
The Hitaer ingots then go to the coin
er. Thev ore Arst rolhvl mti> strips,
and, as the rolling process is apt to make
the metal brittle, it is annealed to soften
it. Silver is annealed simply by heating
in an open wixxi tire, and then being al
lowed to eool gradually. The silver
dollar strips are passed through the rolls 1
nine or ten tiniew Iwfore the tlrst anneal
ing and four or Ave times afterward, j
Then the process of annealing is rejieat- |
ed. After the last annealing the strips
are ruu through cutters which divide
them iuto drafts of the proper thickness
for the cuius ; and three, in tlieir turn,
are run through a steam punching ma
chine which cats planehet* tlie proper
aue for the iviii. From 150 U> 240 are
cut iu a minute. As the metal gets
greasy duriugthispnx-ess, the plauchets
are then dipped into s bath of diluted
sulphuric acid, which is too weak to act
upon the surface but effectively re
moves all foreign mntter. The plancliets
are then adjusted ; that is to say, they
are carefully weighed, and all that are
locking iu weight are cast aside ; such
piece* ore called "lights," and the
" heavies " are the piece* which weigh !
much anil are tiled off.
The adjusting is done by women. It
i is a process whtcli requires much deli
cacy, and scales are used which are sen
sitive to one sixty-fourth of a grain. Af
ter the a.!jnstiug is finished, the next
- operation is the milling, which is done
with a curious sort of machine. The
edges of the coin are thrown up and
| grooved by this process. After another
I cleaning with sulphuric acid the coins
are ready for the die. The stamping is
done on a screw press, and both sides of
the coin are stamped at the same time.
The dies are cylindrical blocks of steel
upon which are carved the designs to be
transferred by pressure to the coins.
Art of a high order as well as fine me
chanism is conspicuous in this part of
the coining process. The designer, in
the ease of the new silver dollar, Mr.
Morgan, first draws his design on paper,
from which is made a model in wax, of
which a plaster cast is taken, and from
this cast an electrotype is taken, upon
which careful revision is made with the
graver. This electrotype, like the model
and east which preceded it, is three or
four times larger than the impression
which appears on the dollar. The de
sign is transferred to a steel die by us
ing Hill's reducing machine, constructed
on the principle of the pantograph.
One anu of this instrument, with a
blunt point, follows the lines on the
electrotype, while the other arm, to
which is attached a strong and rapidly
revolving drill, reproduces the same
lines on a smaller scale upon a steel
block. By means of a press this impres
sion is transferred to another block in
itaglio and thence upon another block,
which is the parent die. After each
transfer the lines are carefully improved
with a graver. Steel of the same quality
as that of which the jmrent die is made
is used for the coining dies. They are
annealed, and trued on both ends. Two
or three blows in the screw press, which
is worked with a large wheel, secures a
perfect impressii >n, and Iwtb the obverse
and reverse of a ooiu are struck it onet
Machinery places the planchets between
the dies, and afterward drops the com
pleted coin in a box. Two or three
pieces of each coinage are reserved for
the annual government assay.
The prooessesof melting, refining, and
assaying gold and silver are carried on
in the Assay office, in this city, on quire
as large a scale as at the Philadelphia
Mint. Not oulv Government work is
done here, but fargc deposits are made
daily of gold and silver bullion by pri
vate individuals. Gold is always found
alloyed with silver, and it is never found
with any other alloy. To separate the
silver from the gold, the bullion is boiled
in sulphuric acid, which removes the
alloy; the gold is then reboiled and re
duced to a coarse powder resembling
clay. Its purity then is 9"JB or JUKI. The
silver, mixed with copper, is run into
vats on a lower floor, and is purified and
S uiulated, when it resembles pipe-clay.
e granulate, l gold and silver are
pressed into large cheeses in a hydraulic
press. A cheese of gold, twelve inches
in diameter and three iuch thick, is
worth 820,000: a silver cheese of the
same size is worth §OOO. The sulphuric
acid, after it is used, produces a sedi
ment of blue vitriol, which is much
prettier than either the gold or the silver
seen in the Assay office. The vitriol aud
the weak acid are both sold for as much
money as the original acid costs. The
substitution of sulphuric acid for nitric
acid has caused a saving to the New
York Assay office alone of §IOO,OOO a
year. Depositors receive their gold ami
silver separately at standard purity, 000.
Pure metal is also sent to the Assay
office from the various refineries to be
alloyed. From United States refineries
silver is generally sent in large bars or
cakes; and a small amount of Mexicau
metal is received in thin, irregularly
shaped pieces called disks. The fumes
from the vats and furnaces in the Assay
office are condensed and sold as weak
acid. Only a small amount of the gas
escapes into the atmosphere, and
although it is slightly offensive it is not
injurious. On the contrary, this gas is
an excellent disinfectant, ami acts upon
dead matter rather than living. The
same precautions are taken to prevent
loss in the Assay office as in the great
Mints. The aahes, the sweepings from
the floor, the crucibles, and all the in
struments which come in oontact with
the precious metals are washed and
ground in a machine constructed for the
purpose, aud the stray particles of silver
and gold are gathered together.—New
York Time*.
A correspondent writes from Helena
City, Montana, that there is no city in

There have been seventeen men bung

Kate Field gossip* about Worth, the
celebrated man milliner, of IVris, a* fol

big clever head and a very pronnuent

for detail than owl* have for the snn.
Worth take* you in *t a glance, mid

which is such a comfort. When Igo to
a dress maker, I don't care to " work my
passage." I went to order my harmony
in one or two colors, and to encounter
brains aqttnl to the occaaiou. Worth's
taste, when allowed full play, i* irre
proachable. " 1 prefer simplicity to

Hvdrophohia Cure.
I can give some facts which may bo of
use to somebody, thereby Having life.
The time between the biting of an ani
mal by a mad dog and allowing signs of
hydrophobia is not lefts than nine days,
but may be nine montha. .After the
animal has Itecome rabid, a bite or
scratch with the teeth upon a person, or
slobber coming in contact with a sore or
raw place, would produce hydrophobia
jnst as soon as though he bad been bit
ten by a mad dog. Hvdrophobia can
be prevented, and I will give what is
well known to be an infallible remedy,
if properly administered, for man and
beast. A dose for a horse or cow should
be about four times as great as for a
person. It is not too late to give med
icine any time liefore the spasms come
on.
The first dose for a person is one and
a half ounces of elecampane root,bruised,
tut in a pint of new milk, reduced to one
half by boiling, then take all at one dose
in the morning, fasting until afternoon,
or at least a very light diet after several
hours have elapsed. The second dose
the same as first, except take twoouuees
of the root. Third dose the same as
last, to l>e taken every other day. Three
doses are ail that are needed, and there
need be no fear. This I know from my
own experience, and know of a number
of other cases where it lias been entirely
successful. This is no guess work.
Those persons I allude to were bitten
by their own dogs, that had been bitten
by rabid dogs, and were penned up to
see if they would go mad; they did go
ma<l, and did bite the persons. This
remedy has been used in and alwut Phil
adelphia for forty years and longer,
with great success, and is known ss the
Goodman remedy. I sm acquainted
with a physician who told me he knew
of its use for more than thirty years,
bnt never knew of a case that failed
where it was properly administered.
Among other cases lie mentioned, was
one where a uumber of cows hail been
bitten by a mail dog. To half of this
number they administered this remedy,
to the other half not. The latter all died
of hydrophobia, while those that took
the elecampane and milk showed no
signs of that disease. lt. C. Shoemiker,
in Country timtteman.

To extol one's own virtue is to make a

It was finely said by Socrates that
the 'shortest and most direct road to
popularity is " for a man to las the
same that he wislr<*s to be taken for."
People are egregiously mistaken if they
think they can ever attain to j>ermaiient
popularity by hyjiocrisy, bv mere out •
ante appearand*, and by disguising not
only their language but their looks.
True popularity takes deep root, and
spreads itself wide ; but the false falls
away like blossoms ; for nothing that is
false can be lasting.
Spiders Traveling Around the World.
At a recent meeting of the Philadel
phia Academy of Sciences, the Kov. Dr.
SleCook contributed an interesting
essay on spiders. One R|>ecieH, Sarotr*
vcnaforiun, is distributes! with little
variation in form or color, all around the
world. From cabinet specimens, he
could trace it, going Westward, from
the extreme Eastern limit of this con
tinent to the extreme Western const of
Africa. He has found the line of lis
tribution to coincide with the belt of
Northern trade winds. He thinks the
spider migrates! from point to jaunt by
throwing out fine threals and snsjreml
ing themselves so as to be carried by tJie
wind. So far as he has b<en able to
jiroaecute the inquiry, there is a eorre
sjmnding lino of distribution for these
sjrider* m oonntrhw swept by the South
ern trnde winds. The theory ueesl*
further facts as to the jiroaenoe or ah
soence of these insects on island* in the
ooean, liefore it can be fully accepted ;
if verified it insy help to determine the
open questions as to missing continents,
sines it cannot be snjqiooed that spiders
could cross spaces of water.
The First Step.
There in no stop BO long as the first
step in any direction, especially n wrong
one. Having onoo taken it, you are very
likely to go farther. One who "teals a
penny will remember it when he think*
of stealing a sovereign. If he steals the
sovereign first, when he is tempted bv
thousands he will reincinl>er he is al
ready a thief. A perfectly innocent per
son dreads the soil of any sin upon his
soul, bat after the slightest smirch he
cannot say, "I am clean." The vulgar
proverb, "One might as well be hnng
for a sheep as for a lamb," means a great
ileal. Often the lamh was stolen years
before, and now why not take the sheep?
An idle word, half-oath, half-exclama
tion, leads the hoy to swearing. Once
having sworn, ho will swear again. The
first step may not be much in itself, but
in its relation to our lives it in n giant's
stride. It iB well to remember it.
