A Mass OF PURE COPPER WEIGHING
FIVE roNs.--At the Adventure mine,
near 0ntonagon, on Lake Superior, they
are now taking out mass of almost pure
copper, which, it Is thought, will weigh
PEE tons
This mass was evidently burnt over
and hammered ont of its native bed cen
turtles since, as it was only covered by
loose rubbish and charcoal, and has been
passed over daily for weeks past by a
party OF tributors who have taken large
mount Of mass copper from its immcd-
late vicinity.
The miners have also, recently, taken
out from the Minnesota mine mass Of
copper weighing nine thousand five hun
bred ana siXty-tWo pounds.

POWER OF THE SUN.-A distinguished
chemist. in arecent lecture, while show
ing that all species of moving power
have their origin in the rays of the sun,
stated that while THERON tubularrailroad
bridge over the Menai Straits in Eng
land, four hundred feet long, bent up
half an inch under the heaviest pressure
Of a strain, it will bend up an inch and
halfirom its usually horizontal line, when
the sun shines upon it for some hours.
He stated that the Bunker Hill Monu-
ment is higher in the evening than in the
morning OF sunny day; the little sun
beams enter the pores of the stones like
so many wedges lifting il up.

The Value of Beauty.

We seldom copy Fanny Fern, as she
is generally only pert In this case she
is truthful rs well as piquant and glor-
iously beautiful, and every father and
mother should read it, and learn to avoid
the Ge.-Eree Democrat
"Mamma, am | pretty?"
ono, my dear; but beauty is Of no
consequence"
Now what an unmitigated fib and ev-
cry day Of that child's life she will be
finding it out. Why not tell the truth
that beauty is of consequence, as is
everything that God has made. Why
not tell her that the eye is irresistibly
fascinated by it; that handsome child
is always more noticed by a stranger
than plain one; Just as when one walks
in garden, a beautiful flower invites
admiration above its fellows; but like
that, if upon examination it be found
scentless, if it pierces with sharpness the
hand that would carcss 1.-THE ga2er
plucks it but to throw it aside, or passes
it for one less pretentious, whose sweet
ness will endure long after It's pale hues
shall have faded away: 1t is right for
people to be pleasing, and it is not only
right, bit a duty, for everybody to lool,
as beautiful as they can. Tell your child
all this; but tell her that for the higher
order Of beauty, something beside the
body must be decorated. Tel her that
he soul must be washed of bad passions
the cobwebs brushed away--the dust
Of selfshuess wiped off, and its cham
bers aired Of the foul atmosphere of I'M
charitabIeness. Hell her how resplen-
dent the soul can make the body-how,
like a liz bit within crystal vase, it makes
fair what else were dark and dim to hui

Of worldliness, las before Gods own pres

earthly artist could trace their beauty,
Or sculptor mould their symmetry. To
near the rustic Of their garments was to
eel the sweep Of an angels wing.

which is reported to have taken place recently

1.-THE NEW CARE AND NEW PLEASURE.
With daylight came Mrs. Parks car
rying Nicholas portfolio, all drenched
with melted snow.
There, Master Drew, thank me for
that, cried she, throwing it down on the
table; the BARNS were Just goina to
rive it open when | stopped en- May
be the things inside will be no worse;
% dear, o dear, they are all spoiled :;
what a picty!' groaned the old man. He
looked at the case dismally for few
moments; then frightened suddenly as
he turned to the fire, by which sat Adie
in huge leather-chair, with her tinty
feet on a block Of wood, and basin of
milk in her lap.
Well l declare, exclaimed Mrs.
Parkes, in great bewilderment, you are
good friends already, | seen
'Yes, we are responded Nicholas
cheerfully. 4 don't know how it came
about, I'm sure; do You Adie?'
4 never called names after you, or
threw stones said the child timidly,
Bless its bonnie face; that it didn't
gasped Mrs Parkes, melting. You are
Il good BARN, Adie; you'll never be rude
to Master Drew, viii you?'
Father said twas cruel and Unjust
not. O father, come back, do come baclr
She would have flung herself 10 the
ground in a wild paroxysm of crying, had
not the woman caught her, and gently
oocking her arms, succeeded in soothing
her again.
There, there, hush, my BARN, be ouietn
said she: and then added Now Master
Drew, I'll stay with Adie, if you'll go
and see Mr.. St. Barbe about the funeral.
Let it be decent, though maybe poor
Louis has left nothing. And buy bit
of black stuff to make her frock; I'll
sew it,
Nicholas wentto the great press, and
took thence a little bag; this was a pre-
tence, for be remembered ruefully that
it contained only few copper coins; he
was quite puzzled how to meet this sud
den demand on his scarf resources. He
staid pottering so long that Mrs. Parkes
who shared the popular faith in his hid
den wealth, began to think hardly of him
and TO say TO herself that he was but
gru1gng churl after ALL She soon hit
on a.l expedient for fastening him, and
at the same time rebukine him for his
supposed covetousness.
Master Drew said she significantly,
I'd advise you to sellthem black pictures
ofyours for as many shillings as you've
asked pounds; then folks will buy them,
for they're real beautiful, and you II have
something to give this BARN more than
YOU seem to have got now
Nicholas grasped at the suggestion
eagerly; the value Of his works would be
the same whatever he took for them
They'll be TOO common If sell them
cheap to the pfinters:but III carry a set,

Repose is the perfection of activity
Great talents impose great obligations.
Only the quiet heart can know the
grandeur Of repOse.
Virtue, like some flowers, blooms often
tairest in the shade
The heart is not deeply moved while
we count its beatings.
To the pure, all purity is manifest
TO the strong, all emergency.
\ fine coat often covers an intolerable
fool, but never conceals one.
The evil we do in the world is often
paid back i'll the bosom of home.
Men usually follow their wishes till
differing compels them to follow their
Judgment
One step in knowledge is one step
from sin; one step from sin is one step
nearer Heaven.
The highest stake of virtue, is when
we begin to love it, not for its objects,
but for itself.
The merit of philosophy, when we
cannot command circumstances, is to
reconcile us to them.
He is happy whose circumstances suit
his temper but he is more happy
who can suit his temper to any circum-
stances.

Nicholas, raising his voice, extending

'Bein, good, Yer we'll responded St.
Barbe, with long series Of gesticulatory
movements expressive of abstraction.
The affair being thus arranged to meet
the views of both, the silence was resum-
ed. Nicholas fidgeted about on his chair
feeling that on this night at least he ought
to offer hospitality, to drink success to
the new year, and peaceful departure
to the old. But what had he, poor fell

larder but brown loaf and pitcher of
water mot gala fare-certainly. All at

supply his lack of good cheer, the Min

midnight. The two-men shook hands
immediately, andwished eachother many
good wishes; the Frenchman diffused
himself into along compliment relating

have rejoiced the old engraver's heart
ifhe could have understood it. He then
said he must return to his wife and chill

shut the door after him, and replenished
the sinking fire; he then drew near Adie;
and eNulted4over his New Years gift,
forgetting for the moment how he had
come by it.
"W hat q wee birdie it is; what a ten
der wee nestling!" said he softly. He
could scarcely lorbear snatching her up
and pressing her to his beating heart
there and then; he would have done It'll

great manythings besides, yeryaffection-
ate and very touching, from that stern
disappointed heart ofhis before he could
leave her to sleep unmatched; and when
drowsiness at last oyercame him, it was
with the greater reluctance he crept to
his bed. More than once before the
frosty January dawn broke on the win
