unable to exercise the right of SURFACES, in

Gus on election day, but the disorders there
Were calmness itself compared to those of

Reason in Brutes.

The ourang-outang, without being taught,
will do what dog cannot be taught to do, and
untaught, cannot think of doing; he will un-
twist or unravel his chain or cord. If the dog
is chained, and the chain becomes in any way
jammed between things lying about, or twist
ed upon itself, the animal drags hard at it,
away from the point of ENHANCEMENT, perhaps
increasing the evil-becomes alarmed-cries
out, and never thinks of slackening the chain
and returning back TO see what the cause of
the Inconvenience is. Not SO the ourang Tout
ang; the moment such an accident occurs, he
deliberately sets about putting matters to
rights. He does not drag away from the point
of resisiance-does not insist on running forci-
bly, counter, but instantly slackens his chain,
as human being would do under the like cir
cumstances, and goes back 10 see what occa-
sions the obstruction. II the chain has got
eniangled with-a box or any other article of
furniture, he disengages IL; il il has become
twisted, he considers the matter, and untwists
it.
We had in our possession dog of the shep-
herd breed, which happened to be tied up one
day when friend called upon US, who was
ealing bun, piece of which he threw to The
animal. 1t fell on the floor before him, few
inches beyond the reach If his outstretched
fore-paw. After several Intellectual efforts to
get at it, the dog, to our surprise, turned
round, and scraped the bread within his reach
by his hind paws. This was process of rea-
soning, an adaptation of means to an end, like
that exhibited by the ourang-outang mentioned
in the preceding paragraph. -v

An Economical Landlady.

One day, when butter was scarce and high,
Mrs. Virgins hit upon the economical plan
of spreading with her own economical hands
the butter on the allowance of bread she doled
out TO her boarders, merely TO save trouble
Mr.. Jordan came home to tea rather late on
the first evening of this new dodge, sat down
in the presence of the other boarders, and re-
ceiSed slice from Mrs. Virgins, who had
gone through the ceremony of buttering ii be-
fore his eyes. Mr. Jordan eyed it inquisitive-
ly, and began to turn it from side to side, and
scrutinize it closely through his spectacles.
What is the matter with your bread and
butterl' demanded Mrs. Virgins
Nothing, nothing, nothing, said MIR. Jor-
dan, still turning the piece over, and persisting
in his scrutiny.
I'm positive, Mr.. Jordan, that you do see
something. Now said Mrs. Virgins, her
face becoming flushed with excitement, Il
want my boarders to tell me right out when
their whites doesn't suit Now, Mr.. Jordan,
what is it!'
Mr.. Jordan laid down the slice upon his
plate, raised his spectacles 10 his forehead, and
replied, with great deliberation =
Mrs. Virgins, there is nothing the matter
with the bread, assure you; but, Mrs. Wig
gins and here MIR. Jordan glanced mischiev-
ously down the vista oe attentive faces, Il have
lived in this world eight and forty years, and
| find myself this evening such a simpleton
that | can't tell for my life which side of my
bread is buttered.'

EBONY WooD. Ebony wood is extremely
hard, and susceptible of very fine polish
It's color is black, red, or green. The black
is most esteemed, and is imported principally
from Madagascar and the Isle of France. Red
ebony, so called, though its colo. is brown,
striped with black, is less compact, and is also
brought from Madagascar The green is soft.
er than either of the other kinds, yields fine
green tincture, which is employed in dyeing,
and brought from the West Indies. The best
kind is jet black, and free from knots or red
dish veins Ebony is initiated by subjecting
the pear-tree to a hot decociion of gals, and
when this is dry, applying black with stiff
brush. 1t is used for various mechanical and
other purposes.

The Winter King.


come come, with my frozen breath,
To blish, your fields and scatter death:
NV car is seen in the ragged cloud.
Nv voice is heard when the storms wall loud,
Ny merciless hand.
Shall cover the land
With chains Of ice and a snowy cloud.
I'll seize each mount in my ruthless grasp,
And every vale in my cold arms clasp;
The forest oaks at my nod will shake.
And fast I'll fetter the stream and lake;
The sun will look down
With desolate fro~n, s1
And natures self at my reign shall quake.
I'll rush at night from my hidden seat.
And Gil the air with driving sleet.
And when some pilgrim alone is found.
I'll bind him still to the frozen ground,
And as the storm means.
Will he utter his groans.
And will laugh at the dismal sound.
I'll ride the gale to the roaring sea,
Where sailors cries shall my welcome be;
I'll sport awhile with the Keeling mast,
Then crush the ship with fearful blast,
And mock at the prayer
They utter there,
And fee away when the sound is past.
I'll seek some widow in lonely cot,
Where peace and plenty inhabit not.
Where the fame on the cold hearth dies,
Needing not tears. nor cold. nor cries,
af I'll seize the fond child,
Rave she ever so wild,
AND bid her look where the victim lies.
I'll clothe the earth with my dazzling sheen,
And who shall live where my track is seen
The leaves shall fall and the birds take wing
When first approache:h the Winter King;
A sound will go out
With echoing shout.
Beware, beware of the Winter King.

female guilty of attempting to seduce young
man by wearing low-neck dresses, and other
captivating articles of attire, shall be punished
with the same penalty affixed to cases of Sc

AMERICAN SPIRAL BoLLErs IN ENGLAND
English papers state that the interior spiral
bullet of j. w. Cochran, of New York, has
been highly approved in England, where the
inventor now is for the purpose of introducing
1t there. This bullet, having three spiral
grooves in its interior chamber, and a very
minute passage at the point, receives whirl-
ing motion roundits long axis when discharged
from smooth-bored fIe-arm, and has there
fore the same direct fight as ball discharged
from rife. Numerous plans have heretofore
been fried TO give bullets such motion from
smooth-bored firearms, but they all failed be-
cause they, ethe bullets,) were formed with
projecting spirals, and were therefore con-
structed upon wrong principles. The projec-
tons met with such resistance in passing
through the air that their extent of range was
greatly reduced. Cochran bullets are smooth
outside, and of conica form, so that they Of
fer less resistance TO the air than common RI
ae bullet. Ii is stated that ne has received
orders from the British Government for man
ufacturing great number of his shot for can
