'Yes, sir,' answered lamb, 'l'm the

walked out for a month. I just toss

the shop. l'd hurried - it amazingly,
and was just agoiu' to take a run down
by the river with her toad the little

- smiling. 'Now you just run
and tell your lady to wait for one half
tin hour, and I'll satisfy her for it. I
am in a hurry. The stage leaves in
an hour, and my boot.has given out.

'Hi dam de ! Well, I s'pose

Thus speaking, lareb left the shop,
and When he returned , he put on his
apron again aud settled into his low
seat. The old man took off his cloak
and sat down, and the cobbler pulled
off the fractured boot. It was ripp
ed badly. Jareb made him a stout

and when 'twas ready he took tip the
boot.
'You seem a happy fellow,' remark

Sareb's good-natured face awhile.

So they went clown into their nar

around, they finally removed a stone
,froin the wall, put the.fiurse in; fitly
hig rolled it up in many thicknesses
of stout paper; and then put the stoue
back as it was before.
On the following day the cobbler
watched for the stage,, aid when it
came he went up to see if the gentle

every day for two Months, but no old

At the cud of that time, Jared was

'Go fbllow you.
The cobbler said no more, but hob
bled down the narrow steps, and
when he came to that part of the wall
where the purse had been concealed,
he asked his companion to hold the
torch. The latter did so, and then
Jareb removed' the stone and drew
forth a paper pareel, all damp and
mildewed. They returned to the up
per room, where Jareb unfolded the
stout papers, nod produced the purse
uninjured.
'Acre, sir, here is your purse, just

The old man emptied out the broad
gold pieces, and counted them—just
fifty of them. He returned them to
his purse, and then looked into ,Ta
reb's face.
'Have yott suNtie..d. for want of mon

'Much, much,' was the answer.
'And you had this gold by you all

of the good wife,

'No sir. I was from Kibwarth, in

'You never had a brother?'

lleppy, starting from her . chair, andtrembling

'Look at that purse ! Didn't you
see that name ?' and as the old man
spoke, 110 showed her a name worked
n golden thread, but which she had
not detected. But she read it now ;
George Munson. Then she looked. in
to the time-worn face and gradually
the features of one she had loved in
years long agone, were revealed to
her. It was her brother; her own
dear brought George. ,
Presently Jacob Group saw his wife.
i)1 the old man's grins, and with one
bound, he reached the middle of the
floor.

not worked itself into Jareh's honest,
mind that any pecuniary good was to
grow ont of this.
But it was indeed lleppy's own

WASIIffd HA N'DS I .AtELTED
:METAL
A curious mid interesting work has
recentl•, , been published in Parts on
Natural Wonder, from which the fol
lowing is an extract :
Reading one day, a scientific re
view, I saw an account of a work en
titled, 'Etude stir les corps a Petat
spheroidal,' by M. Boutigny, (d'Ev
reux.) The editor of the review, the
Abbe Moiguo, quoted some of the
most interesting passages of the Work,
among which was the following:
Cowlet having led the way, we
(M. Boutigny is speaking) ourselves
broke the liquid jets with our fingers.
We plunged our hands into the
moulds and into the troughs ,4114
with - melted metal, which was flowing
out of Wilkinson 'Furnace,. the :radia
tion from which-was . Atne.udurable dis
tance. We varied, ,dukr, experiments
for more than two hours- Mine Cow
le,tpormitted her daughter, a child of
eight years, to put her hand into, ,a
trough full of the incandescent Metal,
wad she did it Without injury.'
The character of the Abbe and the
physicians did not permit me to doubt;
however, I must say that this seemed
to me so inipossible that my mind re
fuSed to accept it ; and that, like St.
Thomas, to believe I must see.
I went to seeM. Boutigny; express
ed to him my desire to see au experi
ment.of such interest, omitting,how
ever, any expression of doubt as to its
LiCCCSS.
The savant received me kindly, of
fered to repeat it before me,, and to
repeat it before me, and to give me
an opportunity- to wash my own ]lands
in the molten metal.
The offer was attractive, scientifi
cally speaking; but still I had some
hesitation, Which the reader I think
will appreciate. In the case of mis
take, there Was the carbonization of
my two bands in prospect. Ifelt that
I ought to have considerable consider
tion for thorn, as they had been instru
inents of great value to me. So I
hesitated.
'Have you hot confidence in me ?'
said M. Boutigny. • ,
'Yes; yes,' I ansd•cred; thwe great
confidence, but—'
/Bitt—yon ire afriad ; confess
said the doaor,
'lN T ell,' oonenuted the doctor, 'to
trnrisquilize you 1 will try the tern
peratUre of the liquid before you put
your I;:indfi in it.'
'About what is the temperature of
the molten metal T .
'About a thousand degreTe'r.i.'
A. thousand degrees ! That must
be a jolly experiment. I will do it.'
At the day appointed . by,pr. B on _
tigny, we went toL a Valet te, to Mr.
Davidson's tOunclry; where lie had ob
tained permission to make his experi
ment.
Upon entering this vast establish
ment, I experienceil deep emotion.—
The infernal noise produee,d, - ;
immense blowers; the flames escape
ing from the furnaces; the sparkling
lava, carried by powerful machines
and surging in immense troughs; the
workmen, thin and sinewy, llackened
by the smoke and the charcoal; men
and things presenting a solemn ap-
•
Vearan cc.
The foreman came to us, and sltiow
ed us the furnace where we were to
make our trial.
While they were .preparing to let
ont the jet, we stood-A,Aw ipm.ents
in silence near the flirnace
t,
nun this not very consolitary contor
sation :
'Could not..prevail union myself to
repeat this experiment,' said Boutig
ny, 'except for you. IdO not like to
do.it. 1 confess that, although I alll
sure of the result, still I - experience
an emotion which I cannot repress."
'lf that be the ease; 1,. answered,

"It amazes me ministers don't write
better sermons—l am sick of tho
dull, prosy= affairs," said a lady in the
presence of a parson.
"But it is no easy matter, my good
woman, to write good sermons;" sug
gested the minister.
"Yes," rejoined the lady,: "but you
are so long about_,it;. I mild write
one,in half the time, if I only had the
text,',
"011, jr a text want,", said
tlic "phi.son, "I rt ill furnish you that,

"It is bettor to dwell in the corner
of a house top, than with a brawling
woman in a wide-house."
"Do you mean me sir ?" inquired the
lady quickly..

grave response, "you will nover make

gary is held - to go with St. Stephen's
coown (carried off once by Kossuth),
I may as well state, having seen the
article at 'Monza ' that it is not an .
iron crown at all, but a "baronical"
circlet of gold. Inside it there is a
slight ferruginous wire, supposed to
bo beaten cut of nail of the cross, and
the date of its first notice in history
goes
,back to the 6th century,
when
02licode-limia, Queen widow of Lom

rin, and brought this reliefor the cor
onation of the joint royalty in 774.—
Charlemagne was crowned therewith
by Pope Adrian I.; and in 1537
Charles V, was equally - crowned with
it at Bologna. _Napoleon I. crowned
himself at' Milan in 1805. There is
an "Order of the Iron Crown," which
was then sot on foot by him, and is

upon the King, entreated him to or

he replied:

purposely fired at me, for children
never desire the death of their, fa

As lie uttered these words, ho pre
