man, although he travelled alntie, is a imwt ct

of which we had no previous record ; we mean
the stupetidiius ruins of Chi-Chen. Other tra

to the ruins of Chi-Chen who has riven to the

W'e have seen the illustrations toboth tliese
cplondid works, n ml can only say tluit society
ispreatlv indebted to the so enterprising and
talented voting men, for such valuable additions
to our National Literature. We think that
probably the work of Mr. Norman will be read
with the prentest interest, from the fact that the
subject he speaks of is etit irelv new. Indeed,
i it was by mere accident that Mr. Norman
heard of these ureat ruins, lie had been to Cu

1 Yucatan. Whilst lit re. In-heard of festivities

: heard of some ruir.s lying between that city
j and the South coast, opposite the island ol'Cczu

j through the woods fur three days, he was olih-

Many years npo, when the now proud Queen
city of the West was a thriving village with
lop cabins and hard cider in abundance, a tall
thin, visapod mortal rode n miserable apolopy
for a horse through the priurip.il street, and
stopped at the sirrn of the ( "bained Hour,' on
Water street. He was oripinril in every res-
prct. His coor.skin cap was tipiwnovcr ins
small prey eyes, and his nut-dyed font woshut
t .ned up to his chin, althnupli the thermome

pressibles ornamented a pair of loos which had
doubtless done the State some service in run

boots appeared to be made for tho double pur

Trimcll' of AVi niiglit Iron.
To the V.iUlnrs of lit Hull Amvnr.nn.
( i FTi.r m r.N : -The September number ot
the Ftipmeer and Architect's Junrn il contains
some intere.-tinp experiments on the power of
wronoht iron, to resist fracture by p'-rcu-.-ion,
by Jas. Nasmvih, C. F.. I cive yo'i a short
statement ol them, and refer those of our read
er more particularly interested to the work
Itself.
Mr. N. savs : "From former practical ex
perience in the workinp of Iron in the pro
cess of forjioij, I h'l'l always ohseived that,
however toti?tt, tenacious, and excellent in
quality a piece ol wrought iron iniphl be oriptn-
ally, by rertain treatment, tlutt tenacity inipht
he all hut entirely d-v.troyed ; and as such
treatment s very frequently, absolutely ne
cessary in fitreritif wrouoht iron into certain
forms, the knowledge of the process firrrmov-
inp such bad efH-rts, ami at the same time ma
terially inrreasinp its tenacity, becomes of great
iuiortanre.
"Ifa piece of the very best wrought iron is
lanimered in the process of Inrjiup, until it
ceases to be red hot. the 'fleet of such rnf
hainmerinp renders it so brittle, that in many
rases it breaks across in the profess ; or if it
oes not at the time, its tenacity is so much
reduced as to render it capable o. beinp broken
by the slightest blow."
To prove the above statement he made the
following experiments :
1st. A bar of the very best wrought ironlj
inches square, hemp at a temperature ot (HP,
waslaidon the edge of an anvil, tlieeud pro-
jectinp over iibuiit three inches ; it wr.s broken
short off by nine blows from a heavy tie ge
hammer.
2nd Part of the same bar was heated red
hot, and hammered until near'y cold; it w..s
then hid on the anvil at the same toni'ieratnre
and in the same position, as in the lir-t exi r -
ini'iil, nnd was bmken short t.fT by one slight
blow of t!ie same hamtner, the fracture exhihit
inp a beaut iful close crystalline grain, such
as is generally colisidi red preot ofpiKid qnali-
.'Id. I'art of the same bar was treated exact-
1 v the sa'ne, as in tlie second experiment ; w hen
cold it was heated Hps in to .1 dull red heaf, nod
laid down to cool at leisure ; at (ilP it wa
laid in the .same p isttiou as helore, and recei

she assured me al breakfast next morninp that
there was no hole in my porkrt, what could I

Peliirea week had gone by, my wife, who
Ike a dutiful helpmate, ns she is, always gave
me her loose chmiM l hfp, call d for a twenty

but vacancy returned a horrid groin. 'On my

front, 'you must keep my pockets in better re

not how many more, is lost, because some
corner or scum in my plaguey pocket is loft

'Are you mire !' said Mrs Slackwater.
'Sure I ay, that I am, it's pone ! tota'ly pone.'
My wife dismissed her promise and then, in
her quiet way, a.-ked me to idiaue my panta
loons before I wept out, and to bar all argument
laid another pair on my knees.

not sleep for si:; weeks. lie probably meant

the natural condition of man was sleep; ai-r. I
to test the truth of the doctrine, slept eighteen
hours of the twenty-four: and as might havs
been expected, died of apoplexy. The eldci
Descroilles seems to have slept but two hour! t

ever, ihe number, of hours passed in sleep vtv
ries from six to twelve. The indolent, and
those whose avocations or fortunes doom them
to inert life, bleep many more hours than ar i
