will come, when a mans psrspration will
be turned to account as steam, and drive

he said
THAT postboys, with mails, would mount
upwards like rockets,
BY the force of steam engines at work in
their pockets,
And on their return, by downward momen.

seventy napoleons to their owner, by a
gentleman going to Paris. However, to
my great grief, in about three months
received from this traveller a bill of cx-
change for the same amount, with letter
saying, that my friend had been killed in
a charge upon the Russian Cuirassiers at
Friedland.
Travelling for amusement in the south
of France, in 1915, repaired to Bordeaux,
and visited the chateau of my friends un-
Gle, who was dead; but the widow, though
extremely old, recognized me, and was
bitterly afflicted with the recolections

SIZE OF THE ARK.-Infidels have OBJ
Je:ted to the size of the Ark, and have as
serted that it is quite absurd to suppose
that ever there could be vessel construc-
ted large enough to hold all the creatures
that must have been placed in it, together
with sufficient fOod-(t may he, for six
or twelve months water for the fishes
corn for the four footed animals, seed for
the birds, and so on. Now, we will take
the dimensions Of the Ark from the record
OF Moses, and calculate them on the low
est possible scale. There are two defin-
tions given of n cubit; one that it is Is
inches, or foot and half-tho other
that 1t is foot inches. We will take
It only at the lowest. Moses states that
the Ark was 800 cubits long; this would
make it $50 feet long, or about the length
Of st Paurs cathedral. London.) The
breadth of it he states TO be SO cubits we
then have il IS feet in breadth. lie states
It to be 80 cubits high, so that it was As
feet in height. In other words, it was As
long rs st. Pau's cathredrai, nearly as
broad and half as high. The tonnage of
the Ark, according to the calculation Of
modern carpenters, must have been 32, 900
tons. The largest English ship-of.war,
the st. Vincent, for instance, which is Of Il
size altogether unimaginabIe to those who
have never seen its $500 tons burthen;
so that the Ark must have been equal to
seventeen first rate ships of war, and if
armed, as such ships are, it would have
contained much beyond 1900 men, and
provisions for lS months. Button has
stated that alI the four-footed animals
may bc reduced to $50 pairs, and the
birlS 10 n still smaller number. On cal
culation, therefore, we shall find that the
Ark would have held more than five times
the required quantity Of fool to maintain
them for twelve months.-Dr. Cummings.

The Throne Of solomon.

! The following account of remarkable piece
of mechanism is taken from a Persian mann.
script called the History of jerusalem" II
purports to be a description of the throne of
King Solomon and if the details are correctly
given, it undoubtedly surpasses any specimen
of mechanism produced in modern times not
withstanding the wonderful inventions which
have taken place in every branch of science.
The sides of it were of pure gold, the feet
of emerald and rubes intermixed with pearls,
each of which was as big as ostrich egg. The
throne had seven steps; on each side were de-
hneated orchards full of trees the branches of
which were of precious stones, representing
fruit-ripe and unripe; on the tops OF the trees
were to be seen pumaged birds, particularly
the peacock the etaub, and the kurges. All
these birds were followed arti6cialiy within, SO
as occasionally to utter a thousand melodious
notes snch eas the ear of mortal never heard
On the first We're delineated vine branches, hav
ing lunches of grapes, composed of various
sorts of precious stones, fashioned liz sach
manner as to represent the various colors OF pur-
pie, violet, green and red, so as to render Tho
appearance OF real fruit. On the second step
on each side of the throne were two lions of ter
ribe aspect, large as life, and formed of cast
gold. The nature of this remarkable throne
was such, that when Solomon placed his foot on
the hrSt step, the birds spread forth their wings
and made noise III the air. On his touching
the second step, the two lions expanded their
claws. On his reaching the third step, the whole
assembly of demons and fairies and men repeat
ed the praise of the Deity. When he arrived
at the fourth STEP veces were heard addressing
him in the following manner: .'Son of David,
be thankful for the blessings that the Ani ghty
has bestowed upon you" The same was repeat
ed OH his reaching the fifth STEP On his touch.
ing the sixth, all the children of Israel Joined
them; and on his arrival at the seventh, all the
throne, birds and animals, became in notion
and ceased not until he had placed himself on
the royal seat. when the birds, lions and other
animals, by secret springs, discharged shower
OF the most precious perfumes on Solomon; af-
ter which two of the kurgesses descended and
placed the golden crown upon his head
Before tue throne was a column of FURNISHED
gold on the top of which was a golden dove,
which held in its beak volume bound in silver.
In this book were written the Psalms of David;
and the dove having presented the book to the
king, he read aloud portion Of it to the chill
dren of Israel. 1t is further related, that the
approach of wicked persons to The throne, the
lions were wont to set mp terrible roaring. and
to lash their tails with violence; the birds also
began to bristle up their feathers; and the as
sembly also of demons and genii to utter horr-
BILE cries, So for fear of them no person dared
to be guilty of falsehood, but confessed their
crimes. Such was the throne of Solomon, the
son of David"

| CENTRAL AMERICA.-There are few countries
so little known to Americans as this and in
| fact there is not one in thousand that has any
! idea of the immense advantages Central Ameri-
ca possesses for trade with California.
Guatemala imports annually goods to the
amount of 50 600, 000 Her exports of cochineal,
sarsa parilla, &C., amount to $500 OOOsa Saliva
dor exports rice, sugar, cochneal, cigars, &c.
Costa RIGA exports coffee, which is the finest in
the world her exports amounted last year to
two hundred thousand quintals
Costa Rica is more advanced than any other
of the Central American provinces. The inhab-
itants are wealthy the finances of the republic
are in healthy condition, the people are indus
trious, and such thing beggar is not
known in the whole republic. The imports OF
Central America may be put down at ten mill
ion dollars.
Nicarauga is the poorest of the whole FIVE re-
publics, but it is occasioned by continual II yo-
lu,ions.
There have lately great improvements ia
ken place both i'll the policy of the Govern
ment, and general change of feeling towards
foreigners. 1t is strange that in Guatemala,
Salvador, and Costa RIGA, there are not more
than ten Americans. All the trade is carried on
by English and German merchants, and they
are terribly afraid that the Yankees will come
in and modest them i'll their lucrative business.
The soil and climate of the interior Of the
public is the finest in the world; fruit of all de-
scriptons grow in abundance Fine WOODEN
cloth is manufactured, which is generally worn
by the natives They very partial TO the
American cotton goods which is introduced by
English merchants by the way of Europe.
