tickets, numbers TO correspond with the seals
musical instruments, dice, pins nails, locks, keys
bits found IN the mouths Of skelton horses, paints
Including rouge, etc. In another room is vast
collection of memorials belonging to the amuse
ments, reveIs, etc., of the Pompeiians. These
indicate very great fondness for festival mas
querades and kindred amusements. Among the
dlWntles to which they sacrificed, it is quite ev.
ldent that Bacchus and Venus were most popular.
" The Cabinet of Gems " are in room in
which visitors, ladies especially, linger longest.
FMS room Is 1oored with Mosaic taken from
Pompe. There carefully preserved in glass
cases, are god necklaces bracelets, pins, ear
and finger rings, chains, ETC., similar to those
now in worn, together with variety of golden
ornaments. There are, also, silver cups, plates,
spoons, savers, etc. Here, too, are ouves of
bread, honey, grain, syep. oil and wine in TASKS,
and eggs, unbroken, and but Slightly discoIored
Here, too, are bits of wearing apparel, Of WOO
and linen, and skens of sowing silk.
The statunry, arranged in rooms of great
magnitude upon the ground floor, presents OBJ
jects of profound admiration. In looking al
these marble and bronze presentments you can.
not doubt for moment that you have the face
head, features and expression of llusrious per
sons who sat before them. In many instances
these heads indicate clearly the qualities, good
or bad, noble or ignoble for which the originals
were distinguished. And in this description OF
art, Pompe and Herculaneum were far in ad.
vance of an age which supposes itself immeasu.
rably ahead Of the ancient Even the statuary
OF the palmiest days Of Rome fails to surpas:
hat which has been rescued from the ruins oI
these buried cities. And the extent and variety
OF these works ofart are truly amazing. There
was more fine statuary buried in these two smal
cities than has been produced, throughout the
world, during the last three centuries.
Among SO many statuary gems challenging
admiration, it is difficult to to discriminate, al
though there are some figures that fusten them
selves upon your attention and memory. Such
for example, as the " Wounded Gladiator, ;
"The Mother of Bllbus," "Agrppina, the Motho
of Nero" "Titus," CaIgula," ClauGins,'
" Cesar,"" Marcus Aureus," "The Hunter,
A Faun reposlng on Skin of Wine," "Au
gustus" y" Infant Hercules srangling,' Maxi
mus in the costume of Consul" " Alex ande
the Great mounted on Bucephalus, whose trap
pings are of silver" Cicero" Homer" etc,
But the head which, for the last two or three
years has arrested the attention of Americans
the moment they enter the room, is that o
Seneca, whose strong, marked, and clearly
defined resemblance OF Gen. Taylor is mos
remarkable. Those who loved Gen. Taylor
aud revere the memory of that truly qseat and
good man, recogn,ze this striking likeness o
of him 10 the head and features of one of tn,
snges OF antiquity, with deep emotion,

were easily resorted so in the absence of "puffs,"
prosalcal and poetcal, to bring this shining
liquor into notice, and amongst them the follow
ing NEARLY one hundred suits of left of
llverles were purchased in the purieus of Petit
coat Lana, London, and having engaged as
many bodies as suits, they were despatched,
alternately to all parts of London to inquire for
Day and Martins 'backing. The trick told;
an article so much in request must be valuable,
and the perfumers, omeD, grocers, &c, soon
LAID in stock, and thus laid the foundation of an
immense fortune. All went on prosperOusly
for many years; nothing went dot0n but Day
and Martin, and they got up as rapidly, Ill at
length Day, who originally had de mOaish, "
made proffer that himself or Martin should
quit the concern on the receipt of fI0,000'
Martin being minus that sum, thought it advisa.
BILE to accept, and he accordingly withdrew on
handsome income, which amounted to nearly
Gl090, per annrm. He built two heaeo- at
Dorchester, in one of which he resided for
some ime and then removed with his family to
Sheffield or his neighborhood, where he expired.
The poor soldier has been dead many years,
but his only reward was quart of ale.

Animal Electricity.

NJ. Beckeinster, Of Lyons, France, says the
Courier des Etats Unis, has obtained some
singular electric results, by operating upon
certain animals. The following is one which
he states to have made upon a cat
When The weather is cool and the wind from
the north dry, if the cat feels COOL thing which
can be perceived by the partially greasy ap-
pearance of the cats hair--if the eXperimenter
has cool hands, he will take the cat on his knees,
will place his left fingers on its breast and will
pass his hands, from the neck to tail, along the
spinal colum. After few passes the electic
shock will be produced, The shock seems to
come from the breast of the cat, across the
body of the experimenter and terminates in his
other hand placed upon the back of the cat.
Though experiencing much pleasure at these
passes, the cat runs off at full speed after the
shock, and will hardly suffer the experiment to
be repeated until the following day, when the
dsagreeabIe sensation will be partially forgot
ten.
One day had obtained, with much trouble,
three commotions from cat. The last one
was very weak. After each discharge the cat
seems fatigued, and exhausted; he laid down,
in an outstretchod attitude. A few days after
it loses its appetite-becomes sad and seems to
avoid the place it was formerly attached to; it
wlthdraws from the persons to whom it had
been attached, and after refusing nourishment,
it still drinks water from time to time, lengushes
more and more, foams at the mouth, and gener'
any y,v,.,,' ''-'>'~t N-s-~' ''- e-'i---
the first commotion.
l have repeated these experiments during
various years, when the season was propihous,
upon tame cats in my possession, and also upon
those Of my reighbors, who believed that / was
merely caressng their oats. Some time after
have always learned, these animals hat
persisted without any apparent cause.

Why is rain water soft because it is not
impregnated with earths and minerals.
Why is it mere easy to wash with soft water
than with hard d'-Because, soft water unites
freely with soap, and d!ssolves it, instead of de-
composing it, as hard water does.
Why do wood ashes make hard water soft p
list, Because the carbonc acid of wood ashes
combines with the sulphate of lime in the hard
water, and converts it into chalk and 2ndy,
Wood ashes convert some of the soluble salts of
water into nsolube, and throw them down as a
sediment by which the water contains mere
parts.
Why has rain water such an unpleasant smell,
when it is collected in rain.water tub or tank !:
Because it is impregnated with decomposed
organic matters, washed from roots, trees, or
the casks in which it is collected.
Why does water melt salt because very
minute particles of water insinuate themselves
into the pores of the salt by capillary attraction
and force the crystals apart from each other.
How does blowing hot food make them cool
1t causes the air which has been heated by
the food to change more rapidly, and give place
to fresh cold air.
Why do ladies' fan themselves in hot weather !?
That fresh PARTICLES Of air may be brought in
contact with their face by the motion of the fan
and as every fresh particle of air absorbs some
heat from the skin, this constant heat makes
them cool.
Does fan cool the air?-No; it makes the
air hotter, by imparting to it the heat of our
face; but it cooIs our face, by transferring its
heat to the air.
Why is there always strong draught through
the keyhole of door because the air in the
room we occupy is warmer than the air in the
hall; therefore the air from the hall rushes
through the keyhole into the room, and causes q
draught.
WHY is there always a strong dranght under
the door, and through the crevices on each side
because cold air rushes from the hall, to sup
ply the void in the room caused by the escape
OF warm air up the chimney, etc.
If you open the lower sash of window,
there is more draught than if you open the up.
per sash. Explain the reason Of this If the
lower sash be open, cold external air will rush
freely into the room, and cause great draught
inwards; but if the upper sash be open, the
heated air of the room will rush out and OF
course there will be less draught inwards.
By which means is a room better Ventilated
by opening the upper or lower sash!-A room
is better ventilated by opening the upper sash ;
because the hot vtiated air, which always as
cends towards the ceiling, can escape the more
easily.
BY what means is hot room more quickly
cooled-by opening the upper or the lower sash :
"A hot room is cooled more qckly by opening
the lower sash because the cold air can enter
more freely at the lower part of the room than
at the upper,
WHY does the wind dry damp linen?-Be'
cause dry wind, like a dry sponge, imblbes the

Day and Martins Blaclzing,

"Oh day and night but this is wondrous strange"
THE following curious history of Day and
Martins backing, by the manufacture of which
the late Mr.. Day amassed nearly $500 600,
will be persued with interest. Mr.. Martin was
native of Doncaster, and served his appren-
ticeship to barber at Gainsborough, which
place he quilted for the metropolis, where he
became a ourneyman to the father of Mr..
Charles Day, bis late partner, and who carried
on business some fifty or sixty years since, as a
perfumer, in Tavistock Street Convent Garden,
Mr. Charles Day was also a .fiseur but born
in London and they both cut their way for a
few years over the heads Of their superiors till
the following circumstances happened -
Doncaser races have always been attractive,
and Mr. Martin resolved to visit not only this
scene of sport but all his relatives. He accor-
dngly arrived there, and soournod at the house
of hi, brother in-aw, Mr.. Anthony Moor, who
kept the Kings Arms, in Sepuchre gate. At
the same house soldier was quartered, named
Tom Florry, who was servant to Captain Will
son. then on the recruiting service in that town
the beautiful polish of Florry's shoes caused the
landlord not only to admire them, but eventually
to obtain the backing recipe for quart of ale,
which was readily granted. This valuable
document, as it afterwards proved to be, was
presented to young Martin on his return to
London, and hence the magnificent edifce, No,
81, High Holborn, and its valuable appurtenan-
ces. The " black diamond recipe was prof
fered to yonng Mr.. Day, he having more of
the ,eadg than Martin, and soon after BUSINESS
commenced in a small way Schemes, of course,

"Give me Som thing to Harden
my Heart"

So said middle aged man, as he entered
the bar-room of a tavern, and walked up to the
bar.keeper. Here, l., giue me something
TO harden my heart !"
1t was uttered in part, evidently as with
cism; for, as he spoke, he looked about the
room for the smile Of appreciation. And yet
there was a Sneer in the tone OF the request,
like the ieer of some liend from the pit, for the
sneaker and all his associates well knew that
the bar-keeper was professor of religion; and
they knew, too that he had not the apology that
he was only the bar keeper, hired to perform a
service about which personally he might have
some scrupes, for he was the o1cner Of The
Hotel, as well as the bar.keeper in it, and a
man that they knew was not wanting in sense,
or ignorant of the great truths and rouslng
appeals that have been poured forth on the sub.
ject of temperance.
To this man was addressed the call, "Gve
me something to harden my heart !" And he
knew what was meant, took dopn The deCanter o.
brandy and handed it to the SPEAKER, that he
might help himself And as he did so, cold
shudder passsd over me, as | thought of that
expression of the Savior, Woe unto the worlC
because of its offences 1t must needs be tina
offences come; but woe to that man by WHOM
the offence cometh "
Something 10 harden The heart! Alas, too true
description of what the one asked and tht
other gave him Beyond question, 1t hardened
the hearts of both-of the one again TO drink
and again to sneer at religion, and again II
make light of the fearful fact that his own hear
was hardened for ruin; and of the other, t.
smile alike upon the one that nsulted alike him
self and his profession Of religion, and to sci
his principles, and his selt.respoct, and hi
conscience, all for the paltry price Of the gas
that was purchased,
Something to harden the heart! Remembe
it, Young man, and touch not the social glass
Remember it, parent, and permit not your child
and invite not your friends, to partake of il
Remember it, ye dealers, who for filthy ucrC
are pouring out the tide of death, and harden
ing your own hearts and those Of your victim;
for the judgement. Remember it, ye friend
OF temperance, and see, in the light of it, hoy
blessed is your work, by which you may kee
the hearts OF thousands tender, and save peEhap
their soul from death.
Something 10 hqrden ihe heart! What th
scoffer asked for is not the only thing that wi
do it. You may harden your heart not only b
the intoxicating cup, but in a thousand othe
ways. By negIecting the Sabbath, the sane
tuary, the Bible; by profaneness, or ewdnes'
or falsehood; by casting away that tract, d
dsregardng that friendly cxPostulation b

THE Doc WITH BROKEN LEG Some few
years ago, (perhaps l820,l Dr.. Taft, skiIlfll
surgeon, resided IN Windsor, Vt, A man in
that place owned large and valuable masiff
dog, who had the misfortune to break his leg
The owner, after Intellectual attempts to set the
bones, sent for DR.. Taft, who speedily put the
bone in its place, and splintered up the leg. For
several days the Doctor visited the dog, and
dressed the wound, and then told the owner he
should come no more, but if any thing should
be wanted, to bring the dog to mis- office. lie
did so two or three times, and then he ceased
going, the dog would go alone to the Doctors
office every morning, and lie at the door until the
Doctor looked at his leg, and then he would re.
turn, continuing this practice until he was fully
cured. Sometime after this, the great dog found
in the street a little dog with broken leg, and
after smelling around him for some time, he got
him up on his three legs, and managed to get
him from street to str eet to DR. Taft's Office,
where he waited with the little dog until the
Doctor came and set the bone.

of honor during its life, in the stable, and never
was doomed to any other toll than that of bear

visited the stable every day, and spoke with it
as with an old friend.

the little kindness which we doto them.

as fast as they are formed.
Which is the hottest place in church or
chapel ?-The gallery
@Why is the gallery of all public places hotter
than in the lower part of the building Be
cause the heated air of the building ascends,
and all the cold air which can enter through the
doors and windows, keeps to the floor till it has
become heated.
Why do plants often grow out of walls and
towers Either because the wind blew the
seed there with the dust or else because some
bird, flying over, dropped seed there, which it
had formerly eaten.

INFLUENCE.

Drop follows drop, and swells
With rain the sweeping river;
Word follows word, and tells
A truth that lives forever.
Flake follows flake, like spirits,
Whose wings the winds dissever,
Thought follows thought, and lights
The realm of mind forever.
Beam follows beam, to cheer
The cloud the bolt would shiver,
Throb follows throb, and fear
Gives place to joy forever
The drop, the flake, the beam,
Teach US a lesson ever
The word, the thought, the dream,
Impress The soul forever.
