"WHERE ARE YOU GoINGp-An anecdote
is told of Finney, ''reyivaist," and canaler,
to the following effect:
He was "holding forth" in Rochester, and
in walking along the canal one day, came a.
cross a boatman who was swearing furiously.
Marching up, he confronted him, and rather
abruptly asked
''Sir, do you know where you are going"
The unsuspecting man innocently repliad
that he was going up the canal in his boat
NO sir, you are not" continued Finney;
you are going to hell faster than canal
boat can convey you"
The boatman looked at him astonished
for a minute and then returned the question:
'Sir, do you know where you are going2"
'1 expect to 60 to heaven
"No, sir! you are going right into the ca
naln
And, suiting the action to the word, he
took Finney in his arms and tossed him into
the water, where he would have drowned had
not the boatman relented and fished him out

GLASS Journal BoxEs.-The glass jour
nal box, invented by Mr.. Campbell OF Co
mmbas, Ohio, is said to be so constructed as
to obviate the objections which has hitherto
existed against their use. The inventor in
manufacturing these boxes, first take an ordi-
nary iron journal box, and heats it to a tenn
peture indicated by cherry redness, and
then, while hot, brightens the concaye surface
of the iron, in which molten glass is to be
poured. After the iron has thus been pre-
pared, the molten glass is then poured into
the concaved frightened surface, while the
iron is at the above indication of temperature,
when both cool, and unite in doing SO. This
is then placed in an oven, until thoroughly
annealed when it is removed, and the glass
and iron are found to be so closely united
that heavy blow upon the glass viii not
produce a fracture, so perfect is the comb-
nation. The glass is then Clipped and pol
ished, when it is ready for use.
