There malady Of deeper Importance either in a

In accordance with this necessity, Dr. StackpOle feels

THE EYE or THE EAGLE.-The eyes OF all
birds have popularity of structure which en-
ables them to see near or distant objects equally
well, and this wonderful power is carried to
the greatest perfection In the birds of prey.
When we recoleot that an eagle will ascend
more than mile in perpendicular hight and
from that enormous elevation, will perceive its
unsuspecting prey, aud pounce on 1t with uner-
ring certainty; and when we see the same bird
scrutinizing, with almost microscopic nicely,
an object close at hand, we shall at once per-
ceive that he possesses power of accommoda-
ting his sight to distance, in manner to
which our own eye is unified, and of which 1t
Is totally incapable. II we take a printed
page, we shall find that there Is some particular
distance, probably ten inches, at which we can
read the words and see each letter with perfect
distinctness but If we move this page to dis
tance of forty inches, or bring il within dis
tance Of five inches, we shall find IL impossible
to read il at all scientific man would, there
fore, call ten inches the focus or focal distance
Of our eyes. We cannot alter this distance ex-
cept by the aid of spectacles. But an eagle has
tie power OF altering the focus Of his eye just
as he pleasos he has only to look at an object
in the distance of two feet or two miles, in or
der to see II with equal distnctness. or course
the eagle knows nothing of the wonderful con-
trvance which God has supplied for his accom-
mediation he employs IL instinctively, and be-
cause he cannot help It, The ball Of his eye is
surrounded by fifteen little plates, called seller
otto bones; they form q complete ring, and
their edges slightly overlap each other. When
he looks at distant object, this little circle of
bones expands, and tho ball of the eye is thus
squeezed into rounder and more convex form.
The effect Is very familiar to everybody per-
son with very round eyes is near-sighted, and
only sees clearly an object that is close to him;
and person with fat eyes, as in old age, can
eee nothing clearly except at distance the
eagle by the mere will, makes his eye round or
fat, and thus sees with equal clearness at any
distance.

PAPER IN JAPAN.-A letter In Blackwood's
Magazine says II is wonderful to see the thou
sand useful as well as ornamental purposes to
which paper is applicable in the hands of the
Japanese. He states that he saw II made into
materials SO closely resembling Russian and
morocco leather and pig skin, that II was very
of lacker varnish and skilful painting, paper
made excellent trunks, tobacco bags, cigar
cases, saddles telescope cases, the frames of
microscopes; and he even saw and used excel
lent waterproof coats made OF paper, which
did keep out the rain. and were as supple as
the best Macintosh. The Japanese use neither
elk nor cotton handkerchiafs, towels nor dust
ers paper In their hands serves as an excellent
substitute. 1t lis soft, thin, tough, of q pale yell
low color, very plentiful and very cheap. The
inner walls Of many Japanese apartment are
formed ofpaper, being nothing more than
painted screens their windows are covered
with fiae translucent description Of the same
material /; 1t enters largely into tho manufac-
ture of nearly everything in Japanese house,
hold and nc saw what seemed to be ball OF
twine, but which we're nothing but long threads
of tough paper rolled up. II o shop-keeper had
parcel to tic up, he would take strip Of pa
per, roll II quickly between his hands, to use it
for the purpose 1t was quite as strong as the
ordinary string used at home. In short, with
out paper all japan would come to dead lock;
and, indeed, lest by the arbitrary exercise Of
his authority tyranical husband should stop
his wife's paper, the sage Japanese mother-in-
law invariably stlpulate In the marriage settle
ment that the bride is to have allowed to her q
certain quantity Of paper.

fact Of which we were not before aware, name

are nearly opaque. BY carefully lowering a
white stone into them, they found that it be-
came invisible ut the depth varying from six to
ten inches, thus showing that these waters are
highly charged with earthly PARTICLES; for in the
still waters Of the sea, at the tropics, such

AN HOUR Ar THE OLD PLAY GROUND
III HrMRY NoRFoRD.

! sat an hour to-day, John,
Beside the old brook stream,
Where we were school boys in old time,
When manhood was a dream;
The brook is choked with fallen leaves,
The pond is dried away
I scarce believe that you would know
The dear old place to-day.
The school house is no more, John,
Beneath our locust trees
The wild rose by the window side
No more waves in the breeze;
The scattered stones look desolate,
The sod they rested ON
Has been ploughed up by stranger hands
Since you and were gone.
The chestnut tree is dead, John,
And what Is sadder now
The broken grapevine OF our swing
Hangs on the withered bough;
read our names upon the bark
And found the pebbles rare
Laid up beneath the hollow side
As we had piled them there.
Beneath the grass-grown bank, John,
looked for our old spring,
That bubbled down the alder path,
Three PAGES from the swing.
Inc fubneb grow upon tne Orlnk,
The pool is black and bare,
And not foot this many day,
1t seems, has trodden there.
took the old blind road, John,
That wandered up the hill;
'Tis darker than IL used to be,
And seems so lone and still
The birds sing yet among the boughs
Where once the sweet grapes hung,
But not q voice Of human kind
Where oil our voices rung.
sit me on tho fence, John,
That lies as In old time,
The same half panel In the path
We used so Oft to climb
And thoght how DER the bars OF life
Our playmates had passed on,
And left me counting on this spot
The faces that are gone.
