AN AMUSING SCENE.-The little steam
er Mohawk, says Detreit paper, was
lying in st. Clair river q few days since,
surrounded by ice, and immoveable. Ii
occurred 10 her captain that be could res
cue the Graf. from her icy chains By blow
ing up the frozen mass with gun-powder.
Accordingly he prepared his torpedo By
filling bottle with gun-powder, attach
ing long piece Of proof fuse. and
sinking the continuance through shole in
the ice. All being prepared. the gallant
engineer fired bis train. Now, every one
~ho has seen the safety-fuse used, knows
that it burns quite slowly under water,
though as quick as powder in the open
air. The explosion not folLiEing imme-
diately on the cal tain's application Of his
cigar, be became anxious, stepped for
ward, and applied his nose to the ice.
and ''look We what befel." There was
a rumbling explosion; ice, water, captain
and spray assembled in halo Of glory
towards the zenith. The captain, hav-
ing "gone up like a rocket" followed
ont the metaphor, ard "came down
like the stick" fortunately floating Ike
it, and struck out fox shore. Wien it
was discovered that he was not injured
the crowd who had witnessed his pyro-
technics, gave three cheers for the cap
tain and his petard, which the former
gracefully acknowledged.

OSome amusing Incidents occur at
the Railway Suspension Bridge. We
heard of one that took place short time
since, which reminded US forcibly of hu-
nan inconsistency. A large, two listed,
brawny fellow who had come down from
Detroit By the Great Western, on the
stoppage Of the train on the other side of
the bridge, opened q window TO take a
survey Of the last "won Ter ofths world"
His eyes rested on the awful chasm. and
the apparently frail bridge over which he
was soon to pass. Ii was tho much for
him. Down went the window, and cur
hero sprang from his seat, made a con-
vulsive grab fer his carpet-bag, umbie lla,
and other paraphernalIa necessary to a
traveller, with an ejaculation-"Look
here, I'll be--if I'm going over that
thing in those ere cars cut ho bolted,
and started 70 "foot it" across the lower
bridge. As the train reached the middle
the individual was observed plodding
along beneath, doubtless muttering to
himself, .'if this thing breaks L am all
right" On reaching the other side, he
was the source of a great deal of fun, but
concluded by settling the matter, by
.'treating all around. Buffalo Commer-
cial Advertiser.

A MIXED Foop NECEssARY.--IfI I only
bend my arm, or move nv finger, there
is a certain portion OF the tissues de-
stroyed, which must be supplied by my
food; the more work man performs, the
more Of these ni.rogenous substances ne
requires. So far as supplying the waste
of the tiSSUee, it is a matter Of indiffer-
ence whether we give an animal food
containing gluten or albumen; but it ex-
ercises a considerable influence On the
character of he animal. Take for ex-
ample hunt, at which we have an om-
niyo9oas animal, man, riding on a gram.
inivorous animal, q horse, accompanied
by carniVorous animal, dog, follow
ing herbivorous animal, hare. Even
the character ofnations is very materially
affected indeed by their food. The other
class of food serves a very important bat
totally different purpose-nsmely, that
of supplying animal heat. The temper
ature Of our bodies is, in temperate, ,c.i.
mates at least, higher than the surround
ing air. Now in order to keep up this
temperature, q combustion goes on simi-
lar to that of an ordinary FIRE. The same
products-carbonic acid, water, and am
monia-are evolved from tho mouth Of
he furnace Of the body and the mouth Of
a common chimney. In cold weather, a
certain portion of heat is gradually ab-
stracted from our body, which must bs
supplied by the combustion Of our food,
or Of the matter of our bodies; the bolder
the climate, therefore, the more heat CIV
ing materials must be supplied in the
food.-Pro'. PlaUair.
