THE MONSOON IN CEYLON May is signalised by the great event of the change of the monsoon, and all the grand phenomena which accompany its approach. It is difficult for one who has not resided in the tropic to comprehend the feeling of enjoyment which ac companies these periodical commo time of the atmosphere; in Europe they would be fraught with annoy ance, but in Ceylon they are welcom ed with a relish proportionate to the monotony they dispel. Lang before the wished-for period arrives, the ver dure produced by the previous rains becomes obliterated by the burning droughts of March and April. The deciduous trees shed their foliage, the plants cease to put forth fresh leaves, and all vegetable life languishes un der the unwholesome heat. The grass withers on the baked and Clov en earth, and red dust settles on the branches and thirsty brushwood.— The insects, deprived of their emus toured food, disappear under ground, or hide beneath the decaying bark; the water-beetles bury themselves in the hardened mud of pools, and the helices retire intd the crevices of the stones or the holloWs, amongst the roots of the trees, closing' the apertures of their shells with the hy bernating epipragm. Butterflies 'are no longer seen hovering over the flowers; the birds appear fewer and less joyous; and the wild animals and crocodiles, driven by the drought from their accustomed retreats, wander through the jungle, and even venture to approach the village wells in search of water. Man equally lan guishes under - the general + exhaustion; ordinary exertion comes distasteful, and the native; Singhalese, although inured to the climate, move with las situde and reluctance. Meanwhile the air becomes loaded ‘ to saturation - with aqueous vapor drawn up by the augmented force of eVaporation, acting vigorati4 over land and sea ; the sky, instead of its brilliant blue, assumes the sullen tint of lead, and not a breath disturbs - the motionless rest . of the clouds that hang on the lowerratge of hills. At length; generally about the middle - of the month, but frequently earlier, the ;nary suspense is broken by the arri val of the wished-for change. The sun has by this time nearly ,attained his greatest northern declination, and created a torrid heat throughout the lands of southern. Asia and the penin sula of India. The air, lighted by his high tempeftthre and stich wa tery vapour as it may contain, rises into loftier regions, and is replaced by iparaughts from the neighboring sea, and thus a tendency is gradual ly given to the formation of a cuerent bringing up from the south the warm humid air of the equator. The wind, therefore, which reaches Ceylon, comes laden with- moisture, taken up in its piefitige adross the gltat Indian. Ocean. As the monsoon draws near, the days become more overcast and hot, banks of clouds rise over the ocean to the west, and, :in the peculi ar twilight the eye is attracted by the unusual whiteness of the sea birds that sweep along the strand to seize the objects flung on &there by the rising surf. At last the sudden lightnings flash amdeg_the hills. and -shoat through the clouds that overhang theses, and with a crash of thunder the monsoon bursts over the thirsty _.land, land not hi showers or partial torrents, but in a wide deluge, that in the course of a few hours overtops the river banks, and spreads in inundations over ev. ery level plain. All the phenomena of this explo sion are stupendous; thunder ' as we are accustomed to be awed by it in Europe, Affords but the faintest idea of its grandeur in Cey lon; and its sablimity is infinitely in creased, as it is faintly heard flora the shore, resounding through night and darkness overthelldomy sea. The lightning, when it touched the earth, where it is, covered with the descend. , ing torrent, lashes into it, and disap pears instantaneously ;- but, when - it strikes a drier surface, in seeking bet ter conductors, it often opens ar WA lorw.Jiku-kbat‘ formed- by the.exploiisn I , 'RESBNTS LEBANON, PA., WEDNESDAY I .

It seems hardly right to' call polar bears land animals; theY abound here one hundred and ten , geographical miles' from the . nearest land, upon rertlooSe, hAken up ice, which is steadily-drifting into the Atlantic at the rate Of twelve or fourteen miles daily: - To remain 'Upon it would be to insure their destruction, were they not nearly amphibious.

Of guiding them in Ithe direction .of land and more solid ice. I remarked that the' upper part . ,-,. ' of bruin's forepawsarerubbed quite bare. Petefaoh explains, that to stir , prise the seal a fiear crouches. doWn Iwith his fore pairs doubled under neath, and pushes himself noiselessly ' forward With his hinder legs, . until within a fewyardii,.hert he springs upon the .unsuspecting victim, Wheth er in the water or upon the ice; The Greenlander's are fond 'of bear's flesh, 1 but nerer. eat the heart or liver, and I say that theee pares cause sickness. ( No_ instance is known of Greenland i bears attkoking men except wounded or provoked; ; they.never disturb. the Eitytimanx,grives, although they sel., dent fail to rob A cache of sears flesh, which is a similar construction of loose stones above the ground. A na -1 Thie of Upernavik, One dark winter's I day,. was out visiting his seal nate.— He fonnd a ,seal entangled, and whilst kneeling down over it upon the ice I to get it clear, he felt a Slay ,on the . i back, from biseornpanion, as he sup ! posed; tat a , second' anitheivier. Veer, I made him look smartly round. He was horro stricken to ees.a, peculiar ISr gilm old bear instead of his coin : rade! Without deigning further no tics 'of the man, bruin tore the seal out,of the net, and commenced his supper. He was not interrupted; I nor did the man wait to see the meal finished.—Captnia McCfintock"s Vey, I 1 age in Search of Sir john Franklin. . -- GOWDER. e g * ' give now the generally receiv ed origin and history .of ;the discov- , cry of this'great "war agent t" ; We owe the diecovery of this- de structive agent, to a,, circumstance ! that happenedin 1292, . to . Berthold I Schwartz,.or Constantine Aucklitzen, ! a native of Fribourg, in Germany, ; which 'was occasioned by his, having ' put some saltpetre,sulphur and' char-' ' coal in a mortar, for; some chemical I preparatinn; .a spark of fire accident- v. flew into it,. when the . mortar ex- I plaited, and the fragments scattered in all direatiOns. . The invention has :been set downin the pages - of hist&- ry as the result of German ingenui ty,. *hen, in' fact„ it Was- the result of ; accident. .It is supposed that Roger I HaVeri, an English monk,. who wasl !born 'near .Itc,hester, inthe year 1214, I I knit* the - ingredients of gunpowder I long before, but kept ita secret frOm ) humane principles. It is saidthat he ;-,so transposedthe letterSof the Latin' word which signified' charcoal, as to render the whole obscure and unin telligible.

Enabled as we are to state Correct ly the date when.the sit" of Making . gunpowder 'whs first found Oiit, Yet we are at fault wheh we attempt to attach a - date as, to its being employ led to discharge fire-arms`; however, but a short period intervened from its being first made to its use in the, field; for we find that it traveled from Ger litany into France, as may, be Y seenb . the following items from the accounts of the treasurer of war, in the year 1838: "To Henry do: Faumichan, for gunpowder and other things necessary for the - cannon at the siege .of Puy Guillauine r In '1846 the English were compelled to raise the . siege at which artillery was' employd by the 1 garriabli ; ' diis - conlaisted of two large "iron boxes," which they loaded with. i round pebbles; It.was censidered as .a remarkable instance' of good for tune that these pieces-4cl_ received no damage—preying that the art ofl managing them with effect . was tit known, Froissart tells ns that whin the Englieh laid siege-to St. Malo, in 1878, they had four hundred cannon with them, which account is some what at variance with Hume's detail in the History of England, where he seems to' Bay . that at the besioging.of :Orleans, in..•the reign of Henry v1.,.' irctiva yeer tut- othst ii,uttet tie-', reckoned among thefirst sieges where cannon wai employed in Europe to advantage!' The, cannon spoken of by krotssart were "hand cannons. which were carrh3d by two men, and fired from a rest fixed in the ground. These portable firearms were not us ed in France tiU be reign of Charles the VI. In Italy, gimpAlrder was first used againstthe Cieneese, by the Venetians in 1380. The proper time to cornifrence train ing colts is while they are quite young, as it is theii.an easy task to handle them. Colts that run till they are three or four years old, are frequent. ly stubborn and hard to manage.— $y plan is, to:halter•brake themwhile they yet run with the mare, and get them so that I cart. lead thein - when evei.7 wish. When thus trained, he ' 64, 3 1 441:011411.AW44 4 4 4 14 3 comparatively little Trouble. .1 next bridle them and get them accustom ed to the bit, and they soon become bridle-wise. At a year old-I harness and drive them about', and when at two years old I put them in a wagon and drive them on the road. When they have become somewhat handy in driving, I give, them a small load, and afterwards increase It. If the load is too great, before they are ac customed to drawing, they will fly back and refude to draw. The prin cipal cause of balky horses-may very likely be the custom of leading them too heavily while breaking. - An instance which came under my observation, last winter, will illustrate this. A young man was drawing a heavy sawlo.4, and bad a young colt hitched in with an. old horse; the colt became fatighed with the. exertion which he had Used, and refused to 'go any fiirther, when the driver became vexed, and beat the poor beast sorolY, which caused him to again spring for ward with all his strength. Finding that the load did not follow, he again refused to draw, as might have been expected. If the load had been light - enoiigh to start at the first pull, the colt would , cheerfully have done:' his share of the work. JESUS AND THE DEAD DO4, Jesus, says a very old Persian sto ry, arrived one stvening at. the gates of a certain city, and sent his disci ples forward to prepare supper; while he himself, intent - on doing good, walked through, the streets into tke market-place. And he saw at the corner of the market some people gather together, looking at an object on the ground; and he drew near to see what it -might be. It was a dead dog, with a - halter round Ids neck, by which he appeared to have bean dragged thro', the dirt ; and a niter,* iYiore abject, a more unclean thing, never met the 6yes of man. And those who stood , by looked on with abhorrence.. •"Faugh I" said one, stopyingbis nose; "it pollutes the air. "How long," said another, "shall this foul beast offend our sight ?" "Look at his torn hide," said a third: "one could not even cut a shoe out of it." "And his ears," said a fourth; "all draggled and bleeding." (No doubt,' said a fifth, "he hath been 'fanged for thieving.". - And Jesus heard them; and, Wok ing down compassionately on the dead creature, he said, "Pearls are not equal to the 'whiteness of his teeth." Then the people turned towards him with amazement, andsaid among themselves, "Who is this? This mot be Jelans of Nazareth, for -'only he could find something to pity and apL Fine even in a dead dog l" and be. Ingashanied, they bowed their heads before him, and each went on his way. MODERN WATER" APPAAATUS Dr. Charles M. Windship, of Rox bury, calls attention, through the eol umns of the Xedieal ands Surgical Journal, to the danger arising from the use of water drawn from the cop. per boilemintroduced into the houses of this and other cities, and which the servants are apt to take for cook ing purposes, unconscious of the, de leterious properties Of water which has been heated in the bath-boiler.— The family of a well-known citizen Of Boston were seriously poisoned by the cook (but who was ignerant bf the danger) having for a long period bben using the water drawn from the 'copper boiler (which connected by a lead pipe with a lead reservoir) in ilfeparing the tea and coffee, and boil big the vegetables. To avert the danger arising fro& such a preklide; which is not uncommon, the: doctor advises that water be introduced into kitchens only through -iron, •glass, wood, or gutta-percha tubes; so arranging the hot water apparatus that it can only he. drawn in the chambers where it is .required for bathing, acc.; and once a, week, or more frequently, if necessary, let on the Water in the wash-room by a lock faucet, the , key of which can be kept in :a secure place. The doctor also advocates the banishment from the kitchen of copper vessels, and copper covers, having. recently * been halted to attend several cases of Said. colic, induced by eating apples and cran berries stewed in copper and bell metal vessels. mar An exchange paper says, a late reverenddivine walking out back of his house, where a new street was opening, saw an Irishman bard at,work with, a . crowbar striving to disk/Sr a huge stone &c on the WHOLE NO. 562. where it, *fp held fast by the root of a tree. :His - patience was fairly ex hausted by the vain struggle he had made, and at last he exclaimed in a passion--“The'devil take it The old pastorliproached him, and qui etly remarked that he ought not to make such-free use of the name of the eblt 'etDO ' and certainly not to throw ausuch abig.idone at him as that. The Irishman, striting his crowbar ,into Wroand, and leaning leisure ly on it; replied :—"Och t then, and it's yerself that's Sindin's fault wid me for saylnk "that same, when it's yees and, the likes o' yeek that's. paid by the year for abusing the ould gin tlenian the t ime?" The pastor' turned tiway to 'smile and enjoy the retort. STRANGE LOVE STORY 1•,In iher e lived in the town of • MR& israria, a youpgmechanic named Louie S , who had just arrived at the 'aged: 'of Mmty-one years. He became accquainted with a young woman, the daUhter of 41 wealthy citizen, notediVriaer beiity and many accomplishmentm, The;two were soon deeply in love With each other, and were living in the`,blisaful anticipation of.soon enjoying.aworld, of happiness in wedded bliss, The matter was mentioned to the kirrs father, who Iveatae very indignant at the presumption of: the young n4n; who was poor, in asking the ,hand of the daughter .of one so wealthy as he', The young Man was driven fro& his, house, and threatined with° personal violence should he return. With a sorrowful heart and eyes, ,wet with tears, Louis bade adieu to busan, tor that was the young girl's name, and set sail for America on the 13th of April, 1848, in the shirrealois. , The ship was out two weeks, wide ly tossed on many a rolling billow, when one stormy, dark night, the 27th of Apt-I:, 1848, she was struck by an English vessel, and in less than twen ty minutes sunk to the fathomless acapths-of the ocean, carrying sevd al of the passangers and crew to "that undiscovered country from whose bourne no traveller returns." Just as ttii Vessel was going down, Louis S—= - • and John Hershberger, who in the voyage had become intimate per sonal friends, plußged into the briny deep, and fortunately almost im mediately got upon a plank, and were quickly carried fsip from the scene of disaster. . The English ship hoireiNA itionnd for- several hours, aid gathered up, a ; number of thepassengers ofthe Calois, ' but Louis and Ilershberger had,, in their frail bark, got beyond hailing distanee, and thewessel went on her way without them. For thiety.six hours they were on this plank in the middle of the ocean, enduring all the' horrors of anxiety, hunger and thirst, , when they were picked up by the once I ill-fated ship City of Glasgow, bound 1 for Philadelphia, where they arrived ion the sth allay, 1.848. Hershber ger hired with a barber in Philadel phia, and' Louis S--; elude an foot' to our neighboring county of Stark, ; where he worked two months, and then came to thiEr county and com menced work at his trade, as a part nor in an established shop. He was a very. fine workman, sober and in dustrious, and soon, gained the confi- , dence of his customers and neighbors. The result was that he sown had all the money he needed, and some to loan, Which he was always careful to pat safe hands. In the year 1850, he Made the acquaintance of a farmer's daughter, of this county, and en the 29th of November of that year he was married to her He continued to prosper, and, in 1852, purchased a 1 fine farm, and went to farming. In ; June last his wife, died, leaving four Chtklien=two boys and two girle, to battle the storms of life without a mother,. I News had heat tak`tin - back to Ger.' manr of the loss of the Caloie and most of the passengers, and among; them Louis and young Ilershberger. I The girl, Louis's first love, was sor- row-stricken with the sad news of Louis's supposed death, for she still hoped that fortunes would favor:them, so that' they might marry at some I time. "Hope springs eternal in the ' human breast," and it was this that strengthened the young Tirl to bid farewell to her lover, and pray to Heaven that he might safely be car ried over the pathless ocean ; but when the sad news of hie death reached her ear, she was for many months almost frantic, her rosy theeks . gave way for death-like pallet add lier friends feared that they Would soon bats to follow her to her grave. Time, hoW ever, had its effect, and she finally aPparently forgot the cause of her trouhles.- Many were the suitors that applied for her hand, but she refused them all. In the year 1854, Hersh-1 burger, who was a scholar and a fine writer, wrote a letter to a friend in Germany, giving an account of the voyage, lose of the vessel, and rescue of himself and Louis S. This letter aria published in is pa, per in Germany, which fell into the heads of the.faitbild girl, by which she, learned that Louis had been saved; but.Nihether he was .yet liv ing, and, if Eitill true to het, Tout her to great suspense. Her father died in 1858, leavin g her a large fortune. In July, 1859; she was in a store in the ttrivii of Landehit and while waiting on the 4tbrphant, who was engaged, to set hiti'some goods, she picked up a copy of Der Deutsche in Ohio, a paper .puhlished by brother Raby, ,of Canton, formerly: of this county, and noties4,the death. pf the WO *. 1 4'./. %. , NORNU f 5-014 I.gb.alto.rt AtiVtrti,str.
