A DISTINGUISHED AMERICAN GofSG TO En-

magnetic telegraph, now in this country leaves
for Europe this day, in order to assist at some
experiments which are being made across the
water in submarine telegraphing he is to be
four or FIVE months absent We remember
very well Professor Morses first visit to Eu-
rope some fifteen years ago, when he laid his
schemes before the governments of Europe !:
and they, already bewildered by communica.
tions from Steinheil, Ampere, LEM and Wheat
stone, could make nothing Of them, and regard
ed the American inventor as either prodi

which attended the establishment Of the line
between Washington and Baltimore. at the
time the nominating convention was sitting
the great discovery might never have been full
ly realized.
Professor Morse will find great changes in
Europe lie will find the whole continent
bound in a network Of wire. During the war
the military councils held at Sebastopol often
asked advice from London or Paris, and re-
ceived an answer almost before the council
broke up; and the Plenipotentiaries at the
Peace Conference more than once solicited a

Church

Let the lady advance one pace beyond
the door of the pew she wishes to enter,
halt, about face, and salute. The pew
must then be vacated by such gentlemen
as are in it by a flank movement. The
squad should rise simultaneously when the
lady present herself, and face by the right
flank then dep!oy into the aisle, the head
man facing the lady, and the rest passing
to his rear and right, the direction of the
line being changed by a right counter
march, and forming again a line up and
down the aisle, still faced by the right
flank. The lady when she sees the coast
is clear, completes her salute, and advances
to her position in the pew. The gentle.
men break off by angles from the rear,
and resume their places. Great care
should be taken, of course, by other par
ties not to enter the aisle while this evo-
luton is in progress. If the lady has any
claims to aristocracy, the preaching had
best be stopped to avoid insult.

VARIETY
FOSSIL Female Dress

The remarks of a valued friend of ours
on the fair sex are sometimes sufficiently
amusing to make us forgive the sarcastic
style in which thsy are conveyed. One
Of his latest spcculations is in regard IN
the possible finding, by a succeeding race
of mankind, of a female dress of the nre.
sent day; in which case, he says, a ca.
v%ierian examination Of the various articles
would probably bring cut the following
results:
1.-THE being to whom this attire belonged
must have been constituted in a peculiar
manner, and probably with some strange
natural defects which it required art 10
remedy. Allowing some space for the
principal exterior robe to sweep clear of
the ground, the length would be about
seven feet. The diameter of the creature
in the centre was in singular disproportion
to this longitude, being only seven inches
and a half.-Still more disproportionole

bone being required in that region to give
support to the body. But for this, the or.
binary attitude would probably have been
prone, like that of an insect. The most
peculiarly, however, was the form and
size of the head. The bonnet indicates a
creature almost entirely destitute of brains.
The head must have been a mere knob at
the extremity of the c~orvical column-such
an e~ncephalon as would be represented
, by that of a female of our race at a very
early stage of its development. In this
t respect the creature reminds us of the class

Another peculiarly, taken IN connection
