laii and Rumor. REV. ERB. TWEECRELL. A friend in Stockbridge', Mass., sends us the .followihg anecdote- of the Rev. Zeb. Twitchell, a liethoilist clergyman, in full and regular standing and a member of the Vermont Conference. %, At one time he repre. ,sented Stockbridge i t & the State Legislature. " Zeb," says ouNinformant, is a man of fair talents, both &a preacher and a mu sician. In the pulpikfie isgrave, solemn and .dignified—a thorough; systematic ser monizer :" but out of the pulpit there 'is no man living who is more full of fun and droll ery. Oct one occasion. he was wending his ' way toward the seat - of . the Annual Confer ence of mmsters, in company with another clergyman. Passing a country inn he re marked to his companion. " The last time I-stopped at that tavern, 1 slept with the landlord's wife !" - In utter amazement, his :clerical friend wanted to know what he meant. " I mean just what I say," replied Zeb ; and on went the two travellers in unbroken silence until they reached the Conference.— In the early part of the session the Confer ence sat with closed doors, for the purpose if transacting private business, and especi ally to attend to the annual examination of each member's private character, or,lather, conduct during - the-past year. For this pur pose, the clerk called *the roll, as was the custom, and in due course Zeb.'s name was called. "Does any one know aught against the conduct of brother Twitchell during the past year 1" asked the -Bishop, who was the pre siding officer. After a moment's silence, Zeb's tra7elling 'companion arose from his seat, and, with a heavy heart, and grave, demure countenance, said he felt he had a duty to perform ; one that he owed to God, to the church and to himself. He must, therefore, discharge it fearlessly, though with trembling. HeJthed related what Zeb had told him while'pass ing the tavern, how he slept with-fhi land lord's wife, etc. The grave body p 1 minis ters was struck dumb as with a thunderbolt ; although a few smiled and glanced, first up on Zeb., then upon the Bishop, knowing, for they knew, better than th!et others, the char acter of the amused. The Bis - hop'called up " brother T.," and asked hint what he had to say in relation to so serious a charge.— Zeb. rose and said: . " I did the deed. I never lie." Then pausing with an, awful serioustiess he pro • ceeded with slow and solemn deliberation : "There was one bttlecircumsiance,iiowever, connected with the affair I did not mention to the brother. It may not have much Weight with the Conference, but although it may be deemed of trifling importance, I will 'state it. When I slept. with the landlord's wife, as I told the brother, I kept the tavern myself .' - The long and troubled-countenances re laxed ; a titter followed, and this next name on the roll was called." TIME ABOUT. Two Yankees were strolling in the woods without any arms in their possession, and observing a bear , ascending a tree with its large paws clasped around the trunk, one of them ran forward and caught the bear's, paws, one in each hand. He instantly coped out to his comrade— "Jonathan, I say, go home and bring me something as fast as you can, till I kill the "varmint. Mmd, don't. stay, for I'm in a fix." Jonathan ran of as fast as he could, but he was an exceedingly long time returning.— During the interval the bear made several desperate attempts to bite the hands of him who held it. .At length Jonathan came back. " Hallo, Jonathan, what the deuce has kept you I," Jonathan replied : " Well, I'll tell you ; when I got home breakfast was about ready, and I guessed it would be as well to wait for it." " Here, now, Jonathan," saidhia comrade, "come you and hold it and I'll kill the crit. let in Iliffy.” Jonitgan 'Seized the bear's paws and the animal while the other could kill it. " Well, Jonathan, have you got hold of him 'I" , "T Ignes,a I have," repled Jonathan. •• Very well, hold him tart ; I glass I'll go to dinner." THE LEARNED ELEPHANT. "That's a werry knowin' hannimal of I yours," said a cockney gentleman to the keeper an elephant. " Very," was the cool rejoinder. "He performs strange tricks and hantics, does he ?" inquired the cockney eyeing the animal through his glass. "Sur prising," retorted the keeper, " we've learned him to put money in that box you see up there. Try him with a crown." The cockney handed him a crown piece, and sure enough he took it in his trunk, and placed it in a box, high out of reach. "Well, thatits werry hextraordinary—bastonishing, truly," said the green one. " Now let's see him take it out and hand tt back." "We never learnt him that trick,',' retorted the keeper, with a roguish feet ; and he turned away to stir up the monkeys and punch the hyenas. GDP COLMAN, of the Astor House, once told a voracious boarder that he was going to raise the price of hoard to three dollars a day. "Don't," said the fellow, " don't do it ! I shall The if you do. It nearly kills me now to eat two dollars and a half's worth, and if you raise the price to three dollars, I shall die in two days. Don't do it - if you please." - O:7AN OLD WO3IAN observingasailor going by her door, and supposing it to be her son Bill, stied out to him Billy, where is my cow gone?" The sailor replied in a con temputous manner "gone to the d—l for what 1 know." ' " Well, as you are going that way," re plied the old lady, I wish you'd let down the bars." O BOY.—Master, how do you sell beef this morning? MAN.—Why, seven cents a pound—how much will you have ? Bor. Seven cents, eh?—Have you got a heart 1— }Am—No just sold it. Bor.—Well I knoW'd you could'nt have' a heart, and as seven cents for beef.

The coining presses of the Royal Mint are thus impelled by a fly-wheel, and generally complete a coin by one blow; and they strike, upon •n aver age, (10 blows in one minute; the blank piece, previously prepared and annealed, being placed be tween the dies by part of the same mechanism.— The number of pieces which may be struck by a of good steel, properly hardened and tempered, not .unfreqnently amounts, at the Mint, to between land 400,000. There are eight presses frequently at work for ten hours each day, and each press produces 3,600 pieces per hour; but, making allowances for occasional stoppages, we may reckon the daily produce of each press at 30,- 000 pieces; the eight presses, therefore : will furn ish a diurnal average of 240,000 pieces. Way is IT •s ERROR to account the fly wheel a piSitive power? Because, in common, cases, it merely equalizes the effect of an irregular force. Thus, in using a winch to turn a mill, a man. does Dot act With equal force all round the circle ; but a heavy wheel, fixed on the uis, L resists acceleration and receives momentum, while his action is above par, and returns it again while his i action is below par, thus equalizing the movement: Again, in circular motion produced by a crank,: l when by the pressure of the foot on a treadle, we turn a lathe, or grindstone, or spinning-wheel, the, force is only applied during a small part of the re volution, or m the form of interrupted pushes, yet. the motion goes on steadily, because the turning: grindstone, or wheel, or lathe, merely becomes fly and reservoir, equalizing the effect of the tame, le' I#llY ass IT alai sate that the whole world, it the atoms could be brought into . absolute contact, might be compressed inio a nutshell? Be.. cause of the exceedingly little of really solid mat, ter even in the densest macs, as evident in the non-contact of atoms,"even in the most-solid parts of bodies; from the very great apace obviOnify cupied by pores; the masa Often having no more solidity than a heap of empty boxes, of which the apparently solid parts may still be as porous in a second degree, and so on ; and from the great ma; dines. with which light passes in all directions through dense bodies, like glass, rock crystal, dia mond, &c. We have a yet no means•of ascer taining exactly what relation this idea has 'o truth. —Arnott. IN" WRIT IS TUE FRICTION greater between pieces of the same substance, than between pieces of different substances, with dissimilar grains? Be cause, it is supposed, of the roughoesses, or little projections in the former, mutually fitting each other, as the teeth of similar saws would. "But for friction," observes Dr. Arnott, " men walking on the ground or pavement would always be as if walking on ice; and our rivers, that t3ow so calmly, would all be trigkaul torrents " rXr WHY IS A MAN ON A TRIADMILL compelled to keep perpetually moving? Because, being placed at the circumference of the wheel, his weight turns it; and he must move forward as fast as the wheel descends, so as to maintain his poli tica continually at the extremity of the horizontal ifsameter of the wheel. The invention of the treadmill is, by some par sons, said to have been derived fram a squirrel in a cylindrical .wire cage. rfr WHT DORS TIER FRICTION of various NVOLid, against each other vary? Because of their diffiir cut degrees of hardness; the soft woods in general giving morn resistance than the hard woods ; thus, yellow deal affords the greatest, and red teak the least friction. Soft metals also produce grater friction, under similar circumstance:, than thinse, which are hard.—G.
