Coat off,' I reede,the effort, and cleared
tbe,ditch; ehly, however, by a few•
'Lichee. I . secured, the, heron, and
smoothing its beautiful plumage, but
little injured by the shot, threw it across,
to the bank from which I had just
eome: • Then; on looking around, I
found myself in •a soli of out de sac.
The h lt of firm ground on which I stood
',wits an island,• and the only way of es
cape was the one by which I had . ar
rived. Having 'to "take-off” from a
lower level, it was much harder to get
back than, it had been to come ; but as
tbere w4iki no alternative, it' had to be
tried. - I did not leap quite far enough,
and pitched with hands and 'knees to.
gether against the edge. There was no
'vegetation to catch hold of, •and after
hanging on the halauee for a 'few' mo
ments, 'vaini3r Clutching at the mud, I
fell 'backwards. With a heavy splash
into ,the water.
- Fortunately, lam a. good swimmer,
and at,first while treading' water, the
ludicrousness of the affair alone struck
me; but when I , began •to see that it
might be'ifficult• to get up those slimy,
overhanging banke,' , l must confess I
felt rather frightened. It was= impos-
sible to got out at the spot where r had
fallen in.' I swam farther-up the ditch,
and trying to bottom, it l felt my feet
touch the soft tenacious mud, that gave
, no support, but was ,ten times more
dangerous than the water. The water
became shallower as I struggled on,
but the muddy bottom refused to , give
me a steady piece, and the banks after
tied no hold for my hands. It at last
became so shallow thatl had to turn no
my back to avoid kicking the mud as I
swam, and when in this position`, I
could push 'my arms into,it with almost
us much ease as I , could push them
through the water ; hut to draw them
out again was far more easy.
With horrid fear of being unable to
extricate myeelf from the mud,• and of
a slow sin - location, I made a sudden
dash back into the deep water, and
tried the other ditches, oily to be re
pul,ked in the same, manner, I swam
round and round the pool, seeking for
an °inlet, -and begin ping to feel my
boots and clothes very heavy. Even
new I luvolutinirily smiled at the com
parison which suddenly Occurred to me
between myself in this plight mid a
mouse swimming roniid a bucket of
water; buelie thought that I, too, •like
it, might be swimming for my life soon
drove all ludicrous thoughts out of my
head.

Dr. Elliott, a noted, olergyman'of an

and keeping neither locks nor bolts on

by burglars in a small way.

bending under' a - huge basket, filled
'with salt pork -, just'liiken dripping
,from the brine. • .

and when you - . want more, or anything

And.against the remonstrancesof the
poorretch, - he .gortipe lied him to take
,just half,of the stolen meat, saying:
"Ca*ry it to.yOur - wife With my corn
pliti-entsli''Thope It ''svill go down just
as. slick asthough you had not taken it
without leave.,", .
' 'Dr. 'Elliott ,leave.,','.,.,
revealed the name
of thie'maii, thotigli he' - enjoyed telling
. the story, as he did obe - soniewhat sim
ilar, which is well worth preserving.
Pne dark night he went for his horse
in the barn, which - Wes at some distance
from'• the parsonage.' Just as he was
about to enter, lie heard some one corn- -
.og out, , and immediately concealed
' himself behind a large bush in the
'lime; hiding hiS lantern under his cloak.
Presently ith& Wide barn door swung
-open, add a man appeared, bending be
neatli,an immense, load of bay, bound
'together by a rope., Through loops of
this rope ho thrust his arms, and he
carried the huge mass:like a peddler's
pack. The doctor ,suffered this thiev
ing Atlas to pass hitri ; then, taking a
Candle from his lantern, he crept softly
forward 'and set fire' to the hay, , then
again'concealed himself, - In a moment,
that moving haycock was one great;
Crackling bidze, and .the thief, with
wild cries; Was - frantically flinging it
from his, head and back. He succeeded'
in extricating himself without help,
and then ran as though pursued by
fiends'acrosS the'snowy fields.
Some months'after this•there came to
the doctor's study, a pale, thin, melon
-1
Owl looking man, .who, after much
pain ul b Psitatlon l expressed a desire to
mak a confesSion Of sin.' With a se
rious'( and :-sympathetic manner, yet
with, I suspect, a sly twinkle in his
eye, the minister set himself co listen.
"I've luid a dreadful load on my con
science for a considerable spell ; and it
does seem, doctor, athef't would kill me.
I'm most dead now."
' "'Ali I is It possible? What can you
-- intve> &Me? - You 'aro- -iv respectable
man and, a church member," replied
the doctor in seeming surprise.
"l r es,i' I j'ined the church • thirty
years ago," - replied the old farmer.—
,r.lben sulking his voice to an awesome,
confidential, tone, ho continued : " But
I'm a dreadful sinner for all that, doc
tor; and" being 'a church member, my
sift, you see, was of too much account
to be. winked at, and judgment fol
bored close oh arter it. 0, dear, 0I"
"Pray tell 111:13 your trouble,lrother."
" Well, doctor, it concerns you."
,- 4 ,,lndeed I"
" Yis. Qne time last winter, I got a
leetle short of fodder, and I . thought to
myself as how you had more' n enough
for your critters ; and so one nigt4 the
devil tempted the to go over to . lyour

"To - help your Self to a : little of my

" Yjs, doctor, jes so But 1 nover

would not let me do it. had a big
load on my back, an' was icarryin't it
away, when all at once it burst into a
blaze about my ears."„
" Struck - tly ligt)tning
"No doctor, it iWas a clear night.
I've jest, made up my mind that ilrp
dropped down from Heaven and kin
dled that or hay. • 'Twits a judgment
an' a alumni', an' afbared a sort of
forerunner of the - flames of hell. I
haven't
_had no peace of mind since,
nor felt like eatin' a good meal. At
last, I thought •I might, feel a little bet
ter, if I'd jest, own up to you, an' ask
your, pardon an' your prayers." •
To the astonishment of the poor pen
!tent ' the minister laughed outright
merrily: Then he said :
• , "Be comforted, neighbor; your little
thieving operation was hardly of such
consequence to Heaven as all that. It
, was I who caught you at it, and set fire
to, the hay from my lantern ; and I.
moat say you, yelled lustily and ran
brisklY, for a Man of your years. Why
didn't'yon tell me you wanted hay?—
Now go home! la peace, get well and
steal no mord:' , •
" You, doctor You? Be you sartin,
sure you sot fire to that ar hay?"
" Yes, quite suro; that was my own
little bonfire. I hope it did'nt scorch
.you much. I _noticed when you came
'to meeting the hext'Sunday that your
hair vvas a little singed. ,As for the
flames of hell, neighbor, that's your
'Own look-out. I trust there is time to
escape them yet."
80, sal 'twas you did it all ! The
Lord be praised!" exclaimed the farm
er, fervently. "It raly is an amaz.in'
relief, an my old woman was right, for
she says :' Uo, to the minister au'
that'll lift the biggest helft of -the sin off
of your conscience, an''be better than
doctor star." Au' so you did
Well, folks say you're a master man for
a joke; but this was more solemn than
a sermon to me, an' more effectual;
doctor, I do believe." •
So saying, the farmer departed in
.peace; and the parson kept the secret
of his name, even in his own family.
That was a beautiful idea in the mind
of a girl who, on beholding a rose-bulb
where on the top-most step the oldest
rose was fading, while around and be
lowit three beautiful crimson buds
were - just unfolding. their charms, at
once artlessly exclaimed to her brother.
"See, Willie, these little buds have just
awakened in time toliße their mother
before she dies!"

Of Heat.
Heat is the cause of the sensation,
which we call warmth. ~ •
Two theories have been held by phil- ,
osophera in regard to the nature of
heat, some looking on it as a material
fluid, and 'others maintaining that it
depends on - vibrationa in the universal
ether that fills all space, • and pervade'
the pores even of the moat dense bodies.
cThose who hold the former the“ry,
all the_ element of heat ca/orfe. They
say that caloric exists in two states; •
first, that of latent (hidden) carorio,
in.which the caloric is intimately cool
bitted with the substance of bodies, and
does not afibet the thermometer or the
sensibility ; and second, ' that of free
calorie, in which state the caloric af
fects the thermometer and produces
sensation:
Radiant caloric is /f, modification of
free calorie, and 'is sbject to the same
laws that regulate the adtation of light.
Those who hold t e second theory
ti
suppose that heat is closely allied to
r
light, and that thO ys of heat differ
from _the luminoas rays of any partic
ular color, in the same way that the
differently colored rays differ among
themselves. Heat and light, they say,
depend on undulations in the same
elastic ether. The Undulations which
produce the phenomenon of blue light
are supposed to be smaller and more
rapid than those which give rise to the
pheuemenon of yellow light. The un
dulations from which yellow light re
sults, are again - quicker and more limi
ted in their range of motion than those
from which red lights results ; while,
those which give rise to heat are less
frequent, and traverse a• wider space
than do any- of this undulations on
which the colored raga depend.
Caloric, or the - principle of heat, is
the cause of fluidity.,' Were it not for
this _principle, all substances—even air
—could exist only as solid. It is sup
posed that a duo degree of heat would
convert the most refractory solids into
liquids, and that' under some highei
temperature these liquids' would be
turned into gases. 1
,
'The sources of heat are the sun,
chemical action, and mechanical force.
I. When light proceeds directly PO m
the sun, the rays of light are combibed
with those of heat; but when solar
light is reflected from the moon, it con
tains no appreciable heat.
2. Whenever substances combine
with each other under the influence of
chemical affinity, heat is developed,
but not always in such a, degree as to
.affect the thermometer to any appre- '
elable extent; but ,if substafices com
bine rapidly and with:great energy, the
heat generated Is , 'sometimes very in
tense, as when water combines with
fresh-burned line....
S: The modifications of mechanical
action by whiott,fieat may be produced,
are friction, (or rubbing,) percussion,
(or striking,) and condensation, (or
pressing together.)
let. Friction.—Twosticks of dry wood
may be ignited, (or set on fire) by rub
bing them forcibly together.
2nd. Percussion.-11 - a small piece of
iron be placed on an anvil, and be sub
jected for a few moments to quickly
repeated strokes of a hammer, it will
become-hot.
3rd. Condensation. —lf a piece of
tinder be placed at the bottom of a tube
to which a piston has been adapted,
and if the air in tho tube be suddenly
condensed by a heavy stroke of a ham
mer-on the end of the piston, the heat
disepgage.d from the air will ignite the
ti nd er,- William's Readable Dictionary.
6_031F. QUEEI CALCULATIONS.—Have
you not often heard, or read, a state
ment like this "The
to
has been
dug over malY times to bury the mil
lions who have, lived on its surface."
Do you believe, this? If you do, just
-follow me in a caloutation. The pres
ent population of the earth is one thou
sand millions. Now, supposing that at
the creation there was one thousand
millions—instead of a pair—and at the
end of thirty years, they died and welve
buried, and their places taken by an7a_
other one thoth:'and millions; and so.
on through the six thousand 3.*WIP.s.
This would give us a grand tetal of two
hundred tuousand (200,000,000;000) mil
lions. Where can this immense and al
most inconceivable number be buried ?
Let us sup. The earth's surface is 200,-
00,000 of square miles. This multi
plied by 27,818,400 (the number -of
square feet in a mile) d and - the product
divided by two huh red millions, gives
35,750 - square feet for each and every
one 'of this vast number. This brought
into a square gives the very respectable
sized Jot of 236 feet each WV, or nearly
15 rods square.
Not very much crow dina or digging
over and over again, is there? Decid
edly better sized lots thaw Cedar Hill or
Spring Grove allbrds. If you think -I
am wrong, go over with the calf cula
tion and convince yourself. Another
little calculation if you , please. How
much room . , think you, would the mil
lions now on the earth require to stand
upon were they all brought together?
Figures will •tell. Dray a circle .ten
miles in diameter on Seine smooth plain,
and place a church bell in the centre,
and every one of the 1,000,000,000 could
hear it when struck. Such a circle
would give toeaeh of this immense num
ber two square feet—or a space about
seventeen inches square. Rather more
crowded than the hurYilig-ground,
admit, but still More than enough• for
the small ones. rather scant perhaps,
.for the Lamberts—yet, - On the whole, a
very good average. Don't you think
such a gathering would beat the, Hub
Jubilee? Perhaps Gilmore will 4 try it.
He cad do It if anybody can. The only
trouble is, .Boiston does not afford a
spot large enough, and ofceurse it could
n ever be doge any where el se.—Hartford
Courant.
