.nen costly pearls weFe thrown into the wine cuu to
give q rich flavor to its contents. The French Courier
speaks OF q wine which graced the table Of the King
Oh nuremberg on . late occasion. which was deposited
IN the cellar at Bremen two centuries and a half ago.
One large case of the wine, containing 5 oxhoft Of 2O4
bottles, cost 500 rix dollars in 1924. Including the
e1fenses or keeping up the cellar, and of the contri-
ousioas, interests of the amounts, and interests upon
Interests. an oxhoft costs at the present time $685.
90 $40 rx dollars, and, consequently. a bottle is
worth 2,I23,S12 rix dollars; a glass, or the eighth
pat ~ d bottle. is worth B p,475 rix dollars, or $272.-
30; or at the rate of IErix dollars, or S272 per
drop. A ~burgomaster Of bremen is privileged to
haze one bottle whenever he entertains a distinguished
guest. who enjoys a Germsn or European reputation.
The fact illustrates the operation of interest, if it does
not show the cost Of luxury.
Ploughing by a Locomotive Engine more cheaply
and rapidly than by horses, ought, in the opinion Of
Engs;sh judges, to be considered as proven. Eight
steatl ploughs or cultivators entered at the late ex-
hleition o. the Royal Agricultural Society at Sails
bury. Ore of them was Boydell's traction engine or
ste IN horse, which consists of a portable engine, with
tubular ten horse boiler, two seven inch cylinders,
each OF one foot strdke, reversing motion, four feet
fly wheel, water tanks, Storage and gear work for
driving with two supeds,) one of the hind carriage
wheels, weighing, with water, about ten tons, and
being nearly thirty feet long from end to end. The
hind wheels are of six feet diameter, the fora wheels
smaller. all fitted with endless chains, and the steer
age is effected by altering the lock of the front wheels
with q short coach pole worked by chains, and q
wheel like the rudder of a ship. There is also a
screw for further adjusting the level of the boiler to
different gradients. The rails are not only laid down
before each wheel, and taken up behind it, but being
looee and disconnected with each other, and being
jointed so as to admit Of angular motion sideways. can
acsomn6date themselves to a transverse as well as
longitudinal inclination Of ground. This engine
assembled an incline of one foot in seven, drawing up
. water tank weighing many tons. 1t pulled three
two frrrow ploughs at the pace of two miles an hour,
working six inches deep in difficult stony ground;
It dragged with still greater ease a cultivator eight
feet six inches wide, with eleven times, making deep
and effective work. and passed over soft. worked land,
scarcely sinking in at all, and not unduly pressing it.

A CHAPTER on NAMES-THEs SMITHS,

Names are curious things, and by the Jews
were given to infants on the eighth day-the
Romans on the ninth-and the creeks the
tenth. In all nations the names Of men were
significant, and not simply sounds for the sake
OF distinction. and generally marked the good
wishes of the parents A happy name seemed
to indicate prosperity in liie-hence Victor
Castor, Probus, Faustus, dc. The Fausta No
nina, or lucky names, were always first en-
rolled In the Roman musters, and first called
to serve at the sacrifices.
Plato recommends fortunate names and Py-
thagoras even taught that mems actions and
successes were according to these distinctions
The Romans, from the beginning, had two
names, and afterwards three, the better to dis
tnguish themselves. In ancient times slave.
had no names but what they borrowed from
their masters or the countries of their origin
Adopted citizens assumed the names of their
benetactors, retaining also those of their own
family. NJ. JunIus Brutus, adopted by o Ser
vllIus Ceplo Agola, was called e. Servilius Ce-
pio Agola Brutus.
Heatbens, upon their embracing Christian
lty, received new names as Saul, the jew, was
calfd Paul; and the jews we're i'm the habit OF
beeg called by Jewish name among their
own people, and by another with the Gentiles
For instance, We find thomas called Dydamus
ana Iabltha, Dorcas. Some think this i. the
reason why Saul assumed the Roman name OF
Paul.
Who has not acquaintance among the
Smiths, 4 most extraordinary name Some
time ago there were very learned discussions
going on concerning the origin and wonderful
extension Of this race. Studious explorers
among derivatives and nominal roots found in
the name of John Smith world of mystery.
Some philOlogist in Providence wrote thirty
columns to enllghten the public on the subject
and threw down his pen because ii was ex
haustess. Some profess to have discovered
that the great family of the Smiths are the
yerltable descendants in a direct line from
oheIn, NOah's son, the father of the Shemitish
tribe, or Shem-hence the decinatiOn-Sheul
elnit-Shmit-Smith
Another learned scholar in Philadelphia con-
tends for the universally of John Smith
name not only in our own, but among all lands
Commencing with the Hebrews he says they
had no Christian names, and consequently nc
Johns-in Hebrew the name stood simply
Shemt or Shemit In other nations however
the John Smith is found full, one and undi-
vided. Let US trace it:
Latin-JOhannes Smithius.
1talian-Giovanni Smith.
Spanish-Juan Smithas
Dutch-Hans Schmidt.
French-Jean Smeets
Greek-Ion SkmittOn.
Russian-IOnlOff Schmittowski.
POlish-Ivan Schmittiweiski
Chinese Tohn Shimmit
Icelandic-Tabne SmittsOn.
Welch-JiOhn Scmidd.
Tuscarora-TOn-Ta Smittla
Mexican-Jontli Smitlx.
To prove the antiquity of the name, the same
sardH observes, that in the temple of Osiris
Egypt, was found the name of 'Pf a -oah Smith
Osls, being the 9th in the 18th dynasty of tht
! Theban kings. He was the founder of the
celebrated temple of Smithopolis Magma"
