A Life sketch.

The feulletonist of the Courier. DIES Eaots U1ais
in his Ghronique de New York, says:
Last Tuesday there was a fete at one of the
| houses in New York most celebrated for the per-
| feet elegance aud distinguished taste which pre-
sides at its balls. In an interval of the dance nv
attention was attracted by young star Of the sea-
son, who was just making her ent,'ee. The groups
of takers opened to allow her to pass but there
was delay OF moment before she could reach
the mistress of the house, At that moment chance
brought her in contact with an elegant woman who
has shone for some time in society, and shines
there still but some Of the roseeaves in the chap
let of her beleshp have been scattered by the too
hasty finger of time. One of the two was deli
cate fioweret of spring the other gay autumn
flower. The latter bent toward the former; the
mature woman regarded the young girl. Oh Bal

You not have seen that look Long, attentive

head to foot not curve in the form, not line of
the shoulders, not feature of the face, not fold
of the dress, escaped it it darted back like reec-
tive lightning over past reign; it Intercepted the
future about reign that was just commencing.
They say that when death extends hand of vio-
lence over us, in the plentitude Of our faculties,
nature, by last effort, condenses, in moment,
all our past history our last sensation is tabeau
OF an entire lite. There was something like this in
the book of which chance gave me the secret.
Good heavens! how many things woman can
compromise in single gIance But to do this she
must nave had career; no young girl could pro-
cure anything like it, / have alluded to DEATH
Where is It not? This very evening, if it was not
at the dance, it was separated from it only by a
wall. ltcould hear the gay music as it watched
by the pillow, where it was not compelled to wait
many hours. When the orchestra ceased at the
hall, the dying groans in the neighboring mansion
were heard no longer; and the life of Capt. D
was extinguished at the same time with the chan.
daliers Of the fete. Thus goes the world. Joy ell

funeral succeeds the ball, again the funeral, for

The SPEED OF sousD.-The following suggestive
article is from the Lancaster Express:
Sound travels at the rate of only lI42 feet ner
second. Everybody has noticed how long The
souha o. distant thunder is in reaching the ear after
tne nash is seen. The other night. we watched
rom an open window, the successive flashes of the
cannon fired for Col. Forney's election. and from
the interval elapsng between seeing the flash ana
hearing the report, calculated the very spot where
it was located. But most remarkable and ;ntar.
esting fact bearing upon this subject has been de-
yeloped in the testimony given before the Coroner's
investigation into the late boiler explosion at
Brooklyn. One of the most intelligent witnesses
testified as follows:
had got opposite to the door leading to the
stifenjng room, and the first hfaeao the bricks fe
all around me; Coleman was lying beside me, and
thought he was killed; got atp ana heard he
sound of The explosion; it sounded like clan of
thunder, and shook the very building.n
Another witness testified that he stood at the
door Of the plank room, a short distance off, and
sac boiler fly; man asked what that was and
got out Of ne door as quick as possibie.n He
escaped unhurt, having had time enough, after see
ing the sundering of the boiler to get out of the
way of the crash and wreck which followed.
Considering the near proximity of these build.
lngs, being really one establishment, this is the
most striking illustration Of the advantage which
may be gained by the use of the eye over the ear
@meh has ever come to our notice. Had Mr.. Hall
depended upon his for the signal of danger, he
would likely have lost his life.
