THE WRECKER.

On a certain part of the coast Of Brittany,
some years back, gang of wreckers exist
cd who were the terror of all sailors. Ever
on the lOok-ou for the unfortunate vessels,
which were continually dashed upon their
inhospitable shores, their delight was in
the storm and the blast; they revelled in
the bowling of fierce wind, and the light
ning's glare was to them more delightful
than the brightest show of fireworks to the
dweller in large towns. Then they came
out in droves, hung about the cliffs and
rocks, hid in eaverns and holes, and waited
with intense anxiety for the welcome sight
of some gallant ship in distress. So dread
fll were the passions lit up in these men by
the love of lucre, that they even resOrted TO
Infamous stratagems to lure vessels on shore
They would light false beacons and strive
in every way to delude the devoted bark to
its destruction.
The village of Montreaux was almost
wholly inhabited by men who made wreck
ing their profession 1t was a collection Of
miserable huts, built principally out of the
broken materials Of the various. vessels dri-
ven on shore; and ostensibly inhabited by
6shermen, who, however, rarely resorted to
the ue6Dg BACtpb WliSh a AOhS SNhsihudhCC
of fine weather rendered their usual avoca-
tiou less prosperous than usual, They con-
sisted in all Of about thirty families, wreck
ers, for the most part, from father to son,
and even from mother to daughter-for
women Joined freely in the atrocious trade.
Atrocious indeed for murder necessarily
accompanied pillage, and it rarely hap
peped that many Of the crew and passen-
sengers Of the unfortunate vessels escaped
alive. Bodies were indeed found along the
shore: but even If they exhibited the marks
of blows, the sea and the rocks got the
credit of the deed.
The interior Of the huts Of the hamlet pre-
sented a motley appearance. Their deni-
yens were usually clothed in all kinds of
costume-from the peculiar garments Of
Fn0lishmen, TO the turbans, shawls, and
netficoats Of Lascars, Malays, and others.
Gases Of spirits, chests of tools, barrels of
flour. piles of hams, cheeses, curious arms,
spy-glasses, compasses, DC, were thrust IN
to Golfers and corners while all the villa
gers were in the habit Of spending money
fbat certainly was not coined IN France.
The state Of the good people OF Montreaux
was one of splendid misery for, with all
their ill-gotten wealth, their improyidence
and eareIessness was such, that they often
wanted necessaries-so true is 1t that lll-got
money is never rwell.spent money AmOnlh

Demonstration Of the square Of the circle.


l. IndHction.--The l2'square inches we will
consider as an OblOng square, divisible into
three equal parts or four inches to each part
Four inches, then, is the third, which is also
the diameter Of the IL inches when converted
into the circle. The quantity still remains the
same. Nothing gained by the curve; nothing
lost by angles.
The, same is deduced by considering the
circle of IL inches as placed within square Of
l6 inches, where the sides Of the square are pre-
cisely equal to the diameter Of the circle. Sub
tract four inches from the square, and the IL
inches Of the circle are left, which four inches
are taken from the four corners Of the square
projecting beyond the circle.
9. By direct Calculation. Divide the circle
into three equal parts Of four inches; to each
part, multiply one Of the divisions by 3, and
we have the quantity Of the whole, The form
of the inches SO divided, with the acute angle
at one end and the curve at the other, can
make no difference as to quantity. The SYM
metry is the same, though different in form
from the square inch.
The same result is obtained If we proceed
transversely OIL iuversely. Trsnsversely one
twelfth part Of the circle is one inch, and 30 on
to the centre Of the circle. lnVersely, one inch
in the centre is one-twelfth Of the whole, and
50 on to the periphery Of the circle; suiting the
measure, in both cases, to the quantity desired.
Diagrams illustrating the above calculations
would be exceedingly interesting, but it would
be little difficult to introduce them into
the columns Of newspaper.-Q.
