TIE MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH FoREsHADowED--
In "Baily's Dictionary" edition of 173OE127
years .agor7under tho word ''Loadstone," is
found the following, forcshadowing the electric
telegraph:
"Some authors write that by the help of the
magnet or loadstone, persons may communicate
their minds to friend great distance: as sup
pose one to be ut London, and tho other at
Paris, if eaGh of them have u circular alphabet,
like the dial-plate of o clock, and needle
touched with one magnet, then at the same
time that the needle at London was moved, that
atParisswould move in like manner, provided
each party had secret notes for dividing words,
and the observation was made at set hour,
either of the day or night; and when one party
would inform the other of any matter, he is to
move the needle to those letters that will form
the words that will declare what he would have
the other know and the other needle will move
in'thc same manner, this may be done recip-

Count the bees that on Hyba are playing,
Count the flowers that enamel the field,
Count the hocks that on Tempe are straying,
Or thegrain that rich Sciciiy yields;

Go number the sands on the shore,
And when 80 many you've given,

For the wretch who can number his kisses,

IA 0FFICF-To the alIcted.-In this age of progress,
when science is almost miraculous everything in common
place looked upon not worth notice In view Of this

sustain well earned merit.
The following n few Of the many testimonials which
have appeared in the public journals within the last few

ORIGIN OF SIAvERY-AMr. Bancroft, in the
first volume of his history of the United States,
gives an account OF the early traffic of the Eu-
ropeank in slaves. In the middle ages, the Veni-
tia us purchased white men, Christians and 9th
ers and sold, them to the Saraeens in Sicily and
Spain. IN EBgland the Anglo-Saxon nobility
sold their servants as slaves to foreigners. The
Portuguese FIRST imported Negro slaves from
Western Africa into Europe in 1442 Spain
soon engaged in the traffic, and Negro slaves
abounded in some places Of that kingdom.
After America was discovered, the Indians of
Hispaniolas were imported into Spain and made
slaves The Spaniards visited the coast of
North. America and captured thousands OF the
Indians, whom they transported into slavery in
Europe and the West Indies. Columbus, him
self, cnsla1ed 500 native Americans, and sent
them into Spain, that they might be sold pub
licly at Seville. The practice of selling North
Americans into foreign bondage continued for
nearly two centuries. Negro slavery was first
introduced into America by Spanish slavehod-
ers, who emgrated with their Negroes. A
royal edict OF Spain authorized Negro slavery
in America in 1903. King Ferdinand, himself,
sent from Seville so slaves to labor in the mines.
In 1911, the direct traffic in slaves between
Africa and Hispaniola was enjoined by royal
ordinance. Las Casas, who saw the Indians
vanish away like dew before the cruelties of
the Spaniards suggested that the Negroes, who
alone could endure severe toll, might be fur
ther employed. This was in 1913. The mista-
ken sbenevolence of Las Casas extended the
slave trade. .frf

sFTHBI4 OF AN AcTor.- Mr. Bourcicault, the
actor, has written very interesting letter to
the Cincinnati Gazette, in defence Of the stage.
We extract from it the annexed vivid descrip
ton of the life of an actor:
.,.T The life of an actor is one of unknown toll.
His daily labor commences ut ten when he hur-
ries to rehearsal. This process is no child's
play, as many think It, but severe and ser-
Gus exercise, trying to the temper and the mind
At twohe is released, most frequently too late
for dinner, for the actor is the only laborer who
will sacrifce his dinner to his duty. While he
eats.what he can get, he studies his part, and is
immersed Ia il until six. AT that hour he re-
turns to the theater where, without the inter-
mission Of a moment he is employed until mid
night Weary and jaded he travels home to
sleep 9no--to sit up pouring over the morrow's
performance, for usually he plays two or three
new parts nightly. 49, ....
.aiHis wifeisits by hissde hearing also her parts
while she makes her costume for the male ward
robe onlyis furnished by the tlieaters At two
or three in the morning they drop off to sleep be-
side theiraschidren. God help them What
have they done during this long weary, weary
day of labor to call down the contempt Of man
kind, anathemoe Of the church, and your gall !?
Godfhelp this poor family-and He docs help
them; for, there s,an angel that stands beside
their couch, who, with her white wings wards
off the bitter blast of worldly wrong; and the
breath Of that angel brings perpetual smile on
their lips, and is a warmth in their hearts. If
exeommunicated by society, they clasp their
own closer to their breasts. ExtraYagant in
their charity, they beggar themselves without
a thought, to relieve suffering brother. They
cling with the fondness of despair to their chill
dren and parents-a fondness which fills up with
family affections the void which society would
mako in their lives, Il. l,9 e

aPRoGREssING.--A writer in the London dh-
enasttan points out what is termed "a prevalent
corruption Of the English language" in the use
Of the word progressing" He says he docs
not find in either Bailey or johnson, any such
verb as 'to progress from which alone the
word s;progressing" could be derived, accord
ing to the otymology of the English language"
He adds, 'the States Dictionary of their Ian
guage may, possibly, in "going ahead,' contain
such aiverb.p atHna ee
Shakespeare and Milton use the word in its
active sense; Worcester says the neuter verb
"progress,n y with the accent on the second syl-
liable, is Of modern origin or revival. and has
generally been considered as an Americansm.
He names the following progressing" English
men who have used it-Sir Robert Peel, Coer-
idges Dick, Hood, Bulwer, Dickens. Eight of the
leading British reviews have also adopted the
go-a-head word. sa
