Every row and then the telegraph
heralds the news of the death of one of
Washington's body guards, or of some
one who had seen the father of his
country, or had remembered something
about the trying times of revolution at
the birth of the American Republic, and
all simply because the heroes of these
lortnary record* manage to bridge over
with a full use of their limbs and facul
ties the meagre span of a hundred years
or so. In comparison with some of the
remarkable instance* of longevity which
the St. Louis /.'tffiiMj/ lbf( has ivlloctod
for the benefit of its readers, these jxxir
centenarian* are almost mere infant*.
A Cincinnati paper mentioned, re
cently, that ene Senor Mosel was still
living iu South America at the remark
able pdge of one hundred and thirty-five
years, ' Mosel claims that he ha* dis
civered the secret of longevity, and it
consists simply iu observing the law s of
n iturc •faithfully by taking the proper
s m-umt of exercise required each day by
the laxly and mind, and conducting
one's self iu accordance with the rule* of
health. He eats very sparingly, taking
b it one meal a day. and that in the eve
ning after he lias finished hia day's
l ibors, satisfying himself in the morning
with a single cup of coffee. He say* he
was never sick but once in his long life
time. and that was after he lmd, on one
, '.v-ssiou, eaten some greeu appica, He
i- said to lx still comparatively strong
in limb, able to do the necessary werk
that his duties require of him as well *.
to give nature ita daily sliare of exeroiae,
and still retains hi* faculties apparently
as bright and sharp as if he wore but in
the years of ordinary manhood.

It ia natter of statistical fact that in
the district of Geeaeh. which includes
the pyramids, and a population of 200,-
(XX), there are 600 persona over 100
years of age, or one iu every 333. Nu
maus de Guyan, a native of Bengal, in
1 ndia, die,! at the incredible age of 370
y ears ! He jxwsossed great memory
even to his death. Of other aged per
sons we might mention Mr. Dobsou,
a.red 139, of Hadfield, England, farmer.
His diet was principally fisli, fruit, vege-
T ibles, milk and cider. Ninety-one
children and grand-children attended hw
furerah
John de la S mat, of Virginia, is ?30
years old.
Old Thomas Parr, of Winuington,
Shropahire, Eughind. lived to the age of
152 years. He was first married at
eighty-eight, and a second tune at 120.
He was covered from hea.l to foot all
over with a thick cover of hair.
Henry Jenkins lived to the extraor
dinary age of 169 years. At the age of
160, he walked a jouruev to London to
see King Charles 11. Tlie king intro
duced Jenkins to hi* queen, who took
i inch interest in him, putting uuwexoua
questions to the patriarch, amongst
which she asked, " Well, my good man,
may I ask of you what you have done
during the long periixl of "life granted to
'•on, more than any other man of shorter
V ugevity?" The old man, looking the
queen in the face, with a bow, naively
replied, " Indeed, madam, I know of
nothing greater than becoming a father
when I was oTer a hundred years old ?"
He replied to the king that temperance
? d sobriety of living had been the
means, by tlie blessing of God, of length
ening his days beyond the usual time.
E Iwurd Drinker, aged 103, of Phila
elphia, rarely ate any sapper.
Valentine Cateby, aged 116, at Pres
ton, n< ar Hull, England. His diet for
the last twenty years was milk and bis
cuit His intellect was perfect until
•v;ti.in two days of his death. There

Surry, a Mr. Warrell aged 120 years.
Taere died, a couple of years ago, in
1 .■ alelphia, a Mrs. McElioy, a native
of Northampton county, Pennsylvania,
who had arrived at the remarkable age
• : liß years. It appears she inherited
the constitution of her father, who was
a German, and who lived to be 107
years old. She remembered the occur
remceof the principal events of the Rev
olution, and she frequently provided
f -xl few the American soldiers. She had
* iiatjict recollection of Gen. Waahing
t. u. In 1790, when thirty-two years of
age. ske was married to John McElroy,
a revolutionary soldier, by whom she
had seven children, four of whom are
now living, two of them being twins.
She had a remarkably vigorous constitu
tion, and often assisted her husband in
the mill before they went to Philadel
phia. She would take up a bag contain
'agll'2 pounds of flour, with all ease,
end place it on the back of a horse. She
retained much strength and activity up
t > her death, and would have been taken
for a woman of sixty or seventy, instead
of 108 years of age. Twenty-one years
lxffore she received what is termed
second sight, and oould nee as distinctly
and clearly a* ever. She did all her
waited upon her youngest
•laughter, fiftv-dne years ot age, who
had been blind (or three \ ears, and at
tended a store or shop which they kept
in the front room.
Mary Randall died recently in the
Tuuries Workhouse, Ireland, at the age
of 122. She was married before the
breaking out of the American Revolu
tion.
Grandmother Miller, of Brooklyn,
who is now 106 years old, gives the fol
lowing account of herself : " Father
j'ined the rebels, as they called 'em
then. I 'member when peace was de
clared, though. I was about twelve
years old when mother took me over to
New York to see Gan'l Washington ana
bis army come into the city. It was about
November somewhere in 1783. The Gen'l
and the army came down from Harlem. I
r member he rode a splendid horse, and
Genl Knox was with him. I threw a
• w liquet in front of his horse; and he
bowed to me and smiled. The troops
■vere awful ragged, some of 'cm, and my
lather was one of 'em"
In every one of these instances the
etcret of 100 'evity has been the same.
'lhe laws of nature place no particular
Kait to human life, but if they are ig
nored the mental and material part of
♦he law breaker must surely suffer for
it. As the human machine comes from
< iod, it ii perfect in all its pa-ta, and
with proper warmth, food, air, light,
drink, exercise and sleep, a person
might live on almost indefinitely, or at
least to a ipe old age. Death is rather
the result if indiscretions and of ignor
ance on mat's part than of the dispensa
tions of Povidence. In all the cases
given above the parties harbored their
health well. They lived as a man was
destined to ive, and partook not of the
forbidden fnit that was daily the food
of the Bhort-ived persons about tbem.
They have carefully discarded wiiatever
would injure them, and have found
sufficient enjqrment in the good things
that nature loes uot revolt against.
Then again t.ere is another thing that
tends to influe.ee the years of a person's
existence, and that is the occupation in
which the indiidual is engaged. Cer
tainly an emjpyee in a white lead
manufactory caot expect to live as the
man whose davtare spent in the fields,
drinking in the treat draughts of pure
and invigoratingatmosphere, nor must
the assiduous bo student hope to attain
the same robust maturity that falls to
the lot of the stfeet gamin. From the
following statisticl figures the truth of
I his assertion willeadily be ascertained:
Of 888 clergymen whose ages were
obtained ninety did at 61.77 years, 123
at sixty-five, 303 .t 62.55 and 372 at
64.47.
Of physicians, 19 average 60.23 years,
and of this numbefortv-two lived 53.99
years; and 154 reaced 64.94.
David Rennet, a hysician of Rowley,
Mass., died in 1719uged 103 years, two
months and three lays. Edward Au
gustus Holyoke diedin Salem in 1829,
. at the age of 100 yers, seven months ;
% and Hezekiah Meri%, of Ward, who
died iu 1803, and Job Crocker,of Rich
mond, who died in U5, lived beyond
iue age of 100 years.
Of lawyers, report* afford loss material
to judge "of their longevity. Tlie ages
of fifty two are given, whoee average
age was 4<> 68 years; of fifty three
others, 65 47 rears. From this, it would
appear that they do not live so long as
clergymen and physicians ; though the
number of observations ia too small to
found a correct opinion upon.
A table in Chavilvrt' J*>urtMl gives
the following as the average duration
ot life among a large number of profes
sional men in that country :
Statesmen and Lawyers 89.6
Physicians 68.0

Mr. Gasper, of Berlin, Prussia, has
calculated that in that country the age
of seventy was attained by forty-two
clergymen in 100 ; Hy twenty-nine law
yers ; by twenty-eight artists ; by twen
ty-seven professors, and twenty-four
physicians. Dr. Madon, in England, iu
oompahug the average age of celebrated
men of different classes, found that
naturalists lived seventy-five years ;
philosophers, sculptors ami painters,
-evantv ; lawyers, sixty-nine; phvaicieiia,
sixty-eight ; clergymen, sixty-seven.

A Hit of Zinc.
By ilie aualysis of souie of the moat
ancient coins, and of metallic vessels
taseu from the excavation* at Hercula
neum, it is found that they ivntain a
portion of tine; yet, to the moderns,
tine i* a new metal. L*m than a century
ago tine was not considered as a metal
at all Homberg, a philosopher who
wrote about that period, says: "Zinc is
a compound of iron and tin;" thus im
plying that it had no individual exist
ence, but it was a compound. Such,
however, is not found to be the case by
modern chemist*.
Indifferent as we are to "a bit of
sine," there are few substances that
have rendered more service, or been
more instrumental to the cause of sci
ence and the progress of knowledge than
tkia metal. Considered in relation to
it* own qualities, it possesses rare inter
est. Certain combinations of this metal
with copper, under the euphonious
names of " tombac," " brass," '* pinch
beck," have been used in the art*,
especially in China, from time imme
morial. In the Celestial Empire, zinc
in great purity is used for current
coin. The money ha* frequently Tartar
characters on one side and Chinese
characters on the reverse.
Certain combinations of zinc, one
called white vitriol (i. e. sulphate of
zinc), and another flowers of zinc (oxide
of zinc), are of great importance in
medicine. The mechanical uses of me
tallic zinc are very numerous, giving
rise to regular trades for the fabrication
of zinc ware. The white oxide of zinc
ha* come much into use a* a harmless
substitute for the poisonous white lead
in painting. Iron chains and wire ex
posed to the air or water, are now all
dipped into melted zinc before they are
put to use. This operation, which is
called "galvanizing," entirely prevent*
the iron from rusting. There are many
other uses of zinc, which we cannot
detail here. The great service, however,
which zinc ha* rendered to man is in the
galvanic battery.
Without electricity many arts would
cease to exist; yet, for practical and com
mercial purpose*, we could not generate
electricity without zinc. What steam
owes to coal, electricity owe* to zinc.
Whenever steam is used, coal is con
sumed; whenever electricity is used,
zinc is consumed. Thus we find that
electroplating and the wonders of tele
graphic communications are indirectly
indebted to zinc; and by the use of the
telegraph we are enabled to answer Job
(xxxviii. 35), in the affirmative, who, two
thousand years ago, asked, "Canst thou
send lightnings, that they may go and
say unto thee, ' Here we are!' "
Billy Bungs'* Hat.
There are a great many people who
feel uneasy when the hat is passed
round, bat a hat like this one must
trouble bad debtors worse than any
body else. A facetious reporter in the
City of Brotherly Love does np an odd
character there in the following fashion:
Billy Bangs is a collector of bod bills
in Philadelphia. Everybodv knows
Billy there, and he collects tLe worst
kind of bills—bills that people were
willing to throw awav if it were not for
Billy.
As it is, they give their bad bills to
Billy to collect. Billy Bangs wears a
very high hat—a family relic. On the
top he has painted in flaming letters:
"Bad Bills Collected."
Thus arrayed, with everybody looking
at his hat, he gr>es and knocks at the
debtor's office—stands aroand his door,
and makes the premises look generally
ridicnlons until the debt is paid. Then
Billy takes fifty peroent. of it, and gives
the rest to his client.
Recently, Billy Bangs was arrested.
He hail gone aud stood around Dr.
Dash's office s few days before. He call
ed three or four times,always showing his
high hat to paaers-bv. By-and-bv, Dr.
Dash got angry, and he went and kicked
Mr. Bangs out—kicked him clear across
the street.
Dr. Dash testified that Billy Bang*
had damaged his good name—that he
got all the neighbors to laugh at him,
and that he was constantly doing this to
good citizens of Philadelphia who failed
to pay all their little bills.
The result was Billy's acquittal. The
court said they bad no right to regulate
Billy Bangs'* hat, and that he conld
wear a " ping " hat all covered with let
ter*. with a town-clock on it, if he want
ed to. So Billy is now the terror of
everybody in Philadelphia—who don't
pay.
What They Kat iu Sweden.
The ordinary routine of dining seems
in Sweden to be in wild confusion.
Sonp sometimes ends instead of begin
ning the dinner. Iced soups and cold
fish are dainties to the Hrandiuavian
palate. Mnch of the sonp is nauseously
sweet, flavored with cherries, rasplierries
aud gooseberries, often with macaroon
cakes and spikes of cinnamon floating
wildly about in it. This is eaten as a
a sort of dessert, and is cold ami often
beautifully clear. If Heine bitterly re
viled the English for bringing vegetables
on the table au naturei, there is no such
complaint to be made here. Everything
is eaten with sauce—sauces red, white,
blue, green, yellow and black—sauces
celestial and infernal. Strong combina
tions of ice-cream heaped over de-
licions apple-tarts, or strange dishes of
berry juice boiled down and mixed with
farina, sugar and almonds, then cooled,
molded and turned ont into basins of
cream, to be eaten with crushed sugar
and wine appear at the end of dinner.
The Swedes share with the Danes and
Arabs a passionate fondness for sweet
meats. Everything is slightly sweet;
even green peas are sugared, as well as
the innumerable tea aud coffee cakes, so
that long before the unhappy tourist has
finished his tour he is a hopeless dys
]>eptic or a raging Swedophobe.

are strewu with the murdered myth* f
antiquity, it i* equally true that of late
physiologies! luqtury lia* lxen instru

that the object Inst viatblo to the dying

fact that such testimony ia jxiaaihle
has lxen authoritatively denied, over
au>! over again, by* physiologist* ot es
tablished reputation ; sneered at as a
relic of metaphysical speculation rein
forced by uiorhld fancy, and finally
scoffed down tin anions the utter inqHw
aiblllties. Hut it turns out. as has often
Ih>cu the case before, tliat tins grim con
oeption of luetic justice was lonndal in
fact, and that under certain circumstan
ce* tlie development of auch images,
latent though Utey are, as identifiable
photographs, is a very simple and prac
ticable proeeaa.
Hut tlie picturesque asitect tf the sub
ject, end the aspect ill winch it appeals
to the imagination moat specifically, is,
after all, the old questiou as to the jaw
ailuhty of obtaining peraiateut images
ou the dead retina ; a question that has
lawn settled m the affirmative by Kuhue,
who, having placed the decapitated head
of a rabbit iu a dark bos, exposed it, in
the first instance, to the light of win
dow >f ground glues ; tlteu hardened the
rvtiua of the eye in a five |>er cent. *•>-
lutiou of ahiui for twenty-four hours in
the dark, and thus obtained a distinct
and identifiable jdiotograoh of the win
dow upon it# red posterior aspect. Such
images are scientifically styled opto
grams, and retinas thus treated can l*
dried and mounted for peruiaueut illus
tration of the curiosities of retinal phys
iology. This question has been careful
ly teste*! recently with eyes of horses
and dog 9 in the dissecting nana of one
of our colleges, with the result of find
ing, as maintained by German pliyaiolo
gists, that such optograms can be rea*U
lv taken within cue hour after the death of
the animal, and developed by rapidly
dissecting out the retina and immediate
ly immersing it in a ten per cent, solu
tion of common salt. It is, therefore,
one of the undeniable verities of science
that, under favorable circumstances, it
wouid le a matter of no serious difficol
cy to identify a murderer by this prin
cess, the fact furnishing only another il
lustration of the proverb that the
strangest dreams of romance are veri
fied by reality. No doubt a coroner's
jury would treat the revelations of a dead
retina with a little pardonable disrespect
to begin with, but a siugle demonstra
tion would suffice to convince evcu the
most skeptical of professional jurymen.
Words of Wisdom.
11 i# but poor eloquence which only
shows that the orator can talk.
If what is said be not to the purpose
a single word is already too much.
We can hardly learn humility and
tenderness enough, except by suffering.
As nothing trulv valuable can l>e ob
tained without industry, so there can be
no persevering industry without a deep
sense of the value of time.
The most common error of men and
women is that of looking for happiness
somewhere eutmde of useful work. It
has never yet been found when thus
sought, and never will be while the
world stands ; and the soouer the truth
is learned, the better for every one. If
you doubt the proposition, go around
amoug your friends and acquaintances
and select thorn- who have the most en
joyment through life. Are they idlers
and pleasure-seekers, or the earnest
workers? We know what vonr answer
will be. Of the miserable human beings
it has been eur fortune or misfortune to
know, those were the most wretched
who had retired from useful employ
ment iu order to enjoy themselves.
Truth will never die ; the stars will
grow dim, the sun will pale his glory,
but truth will be ever young. Integrity,
uprightueee, honesty, love, g<. dnesa,
these are all imperishable. No grave
can ever entomb these immortal princi
ple*. They have been in prison, tWit
they have been freer than before ; those
who enshrined them in their heart* have
been burned at tlie stake, but out of
their aslie* other witnesses have arisen.
No sea can drown, no storm can wreck,
no abyss can swallow up the everlasting
truth. Yon can not kill goodness and in
tegrity and righteousness ; the way that
is consistent with these most t>e away
everlasting.
Voyages in a Life-Preserving Suit.
Capt. I'atil Bovton, who a couple of
years ago made himself and the Merri
man life-preaerving suit famous by
successfully floating acnus. the Britisli
Channel, has recently accomplished an
other feat which put* all previous
achievements in the same line far in the
shade. Beginning at Toledo, Spain, he
undertook the navigation of the river
Tapus to its mouth at the Lisbon. The
distance traversed was f>oo miles, and
the voyage occupied eighteen days.
Captain Boyton's accouut of his jour
ney is not calculated to render any one
desirous of repeating the experiment.
In some places the river became a tor
rent, dashing among sharp recks at the
rate of n dozen or two miles an hour;
for miles it ran between precipices, and
in a country seemingly destitute of
human habitations. The swimmer
" never knew bir that the next angle in
a canon would laud me in a whirlpool or
over a precipice." During the voyage
102 waterfalls and rapids were passed,
one cataract being fully fifty feet in
height.
From Lisbon Captain Boyton went
to Gibr.iltar, and there swam across the
straits to the African shore, direct dis
tance thirty miles. The passage took
seventeen hours, and the swimmer was
swept far ont of his course by the strong
spring tides. The trial is regarded us
one of the severest to which he has yet
been subjected.
Morphlomania.
Morphiomania lias t>ecome a great
scourge in Berlin since the introduction
of opium injections as a relief from bod
ily suffering aud sleeplessness. Trades
people, merchants, judges, barrister*,
soldiers, students, doctors and clergy
men become the victims of the habit,
and when the medical attendants are
called in it is too late to counteract the
evil. At first, these sub-cutaneous in
jections offer the quickest, and easiest
means to allay pain ami bring rest to the
'sufferer. Bnt)to prove effectual in its
cure, the treatment must be eontinu d
for a certain time; and during that
period the patient becomes so accustom
ed to these skin injections that thev
become indispensable. When the medi
cal practitioner refuses to increase the
doses, the patient unable to Sleep or
rest without the calming injection, pro
cures the necessary instruments and ap
plies the remedy himself. Sometime*,
also, even after the patient lias been
cured without any undne dose*, and
when he should dispense with the opium
injections, he delays doing so under the
plea that they make sleep ami rest so
well. In fact, when once these sub
cutaneous injections have begun, they
can rarely lie left off. Like drink, the
appetite for them increases until chronic
drunkenness ensues.
looking Masse* in Kat Traps.
A correspondent writes: "I do not
think it is generally known that rats and
mice will go into a trap mnch more
readily if a piece of looking glass is put
in any part of the trap where they can
see themselves. They are social little
creatures, and where they can see any of
their tribe there they will go. I am
quite sure of the effect the looking glass
has, as I properly baited my trap for a
whole week without being able to coax
one of the depreilatorß in: but the first
night after putting in the looking glass
I caught two—oue very Inrge and one
small rat; and every sight since, this
device has made one or more prisoners."

A Parts banker, a eelf-mnde man who
luui known the struggles i>t jM.Ti-rty in
bis young ilays, had an old Uine-ptuoe
over his bed wheu he breatheit his last
a few weeks ago. When he was a boy
he used to say to himself : " When you
are rich, vou will buy a picture-clock
representing s hamlet with its chureli
aud in the steeple a cl<k ; and at the
foot of the Tillage a railroad, with a train
in full motion, and on one side the sea,
with ships sailing by." All theae things
were made to work bv machinery in the
dock which the rich banker bought.
The train whistled and ran along the
line, and the ships were toaaed in the
sea; and the key which set them in mo
tion was carried in the old gentleman's
IKicket. The clock had the place of
tooor in his drawing-room, surrounded
by paintings which cost tlieir weight in
gold, and there it remained for years.
His wife and children did not h*ke it.
They iatiglnsi at it. They could not
understand his whim. Tliey did not
know of all the old dreams which that
picture awakened in him. His friends
laughed at him for lcttiug it remain in
the dMwiug-riioni. So he took it into
his own room. Whenever he wanted to
renew lus youth he would wind up the
old clock, and then the steeple would
chime, the sea roar, the slaps UMM back
wards and forward a, and lie would feel
as happy as in the old days when he
uses) to dream about the wonderful
treasure.

" No, my little daisy," he answered,

A Kerocion* Alligator.
In the Norman river, Australia, the
alligators are o numerons and daring
that they will not leave the steamers'
path until they are actually disturbed
by the motion of the floats. As ilio
steamer Pioneer was on its voynge, a
Kanaka belonging to the vessel wns
standing on the margin of the river
unfastening A rope, when he was clinrgod
by one of these terrible saurians. The
people on board who saw the danger
cried out to alarm the man ; but before
he could make hi* escape the alligator
seised him by the thigh. The mifor
tuuate man threw his arm round some
mangroves, anil so held on until assist*
auce came from the steamer. Hix men
quickly seized him, and then there was
a horrible trial of strength between
human muscles nud the jaws of the alli
gator. The captain struck the brute a
blow oti the head with an axe, which
forced him to let go his hold, snd the
victim was drugged away. Theslligator,
however, made another charge up the
bnnk, but wns repelled with difficulty by
repeated blows of the axe. The poor
Kanaka's leg was taken off below the
knee. Medical assistance was near at
hand, but the excessive lows of blood
rendered riwivery hopoleaa. The man
died within fifteen minutes after he had
reached the doctor'* dispensary.

The Malay.
Ths Malay is naturally dnll, heavy

leave a sear." Acting njiou this, a Malay
rarely forgets an offense, and as his idea
is that the insult must be washed oat in
blood and he always carries the kris,
fatal oases of retaliation are not uncom
mon.
