AN ASTI-ToBAcco SocIETY.-An Anti-To.
bacco Society had a meeting and the Secre-
tary presented report, the tenth annual, in
Boston, a day or two ago. We read that
This document urged the necessity of an
organization devoted to the abolition of the
use of tobacco among men. The purpose OF
the society was to fight tobacco wherever it
can be found. Saints as well as sinners use
the article. Ladies encourage the other sex
in the vile habit, although no more destruc-
tive agent to feminine beauty is known.
Clergymen were very remiss in their duty in
regard to the curse. 1t was very easy for
them to rebuke sin in Hindostan, or on the
plains of Alabama; but it was an entirely diff
terent thing to dive into pew a few. feet
from the pulpit owned by fifty thousand
dollar parishioner, who makes his money by
selling tobacco on the wharf Other reforms
are preached until the congregations are
stuffed with the iteration, but the tobacco
movement is unnotieed." lL gnIf'TI =

A DEFECTIVE STATUE OF MENpELssoHN. -
A statue of Mendelssohn recently exhibited
at the Crystal Palace is described as "the
worst specimen of English art seen for many
q long day" II must have been bad indeed,
when one thinks Of the quantities of un-
meaning, clumsy figures, from the monument
through st. Paul's and Westminster, to the
Insignificant figure of James the Second at
Whitehall. Although Mr.. Bacon, sculptor
of some note, was the author of the Mendels-
sohn statue, it was so inartistic that small
model was refused at the Royal Academy
exhibitions. The difficulty, however, did
not end with the modelling, for like nearly
all the bronze figures in England, exposure
has turned il black; it seems that the casting
is given to the lowest bidders, and the proper
quantity of copper and silver necessary TO
give the peculiar color of bronze is replaced
with lead.

The air pump rods are strengthened with a
brace, and number Of minor changes have
been made, all tending TO increase the eff
nciency OF the paddle engines. In the screw
engines the only alteration of any Importance
made is the substitution of lignum Vita bear
ings for soft metal, which has been found not
to be adapted for work when exposed to the
actlon OF salt water. The boiler which suf-
fered on the first trip from the accident with
the funnel casing, has been put into thorough
and complete repair. The portion which was
slightly fractured has been removed and re-
placed by new plates. The comforts of the
engineers and stokers have not been over
looked, and increased ventilation has been
provided for the deep stoke holes, where the
men feed the hundred roaring furnaces that
convert the water into steam. oN L u.
The time in making the voyage to New
YORK from southampton will, even if no
greater speed is obtained than upon the trial
trip to Holyhead, be shorter than the quick
est passage of any other ocean steamer. An
average of fourteen knots will give result
beyond that obtained by the Persia. The
merits, however, of such ship as the Great
Eastern are not to be judged by trip ofa
few days across the Atlantic with 1000 tuns
of coal on board, but by those longer VOYAGES
TO India and Australia, for which she was
especially designed and constructed. 1t is
necessary however, to create feeling of
confidence on the sea-going qualities of the
ship, and for this purpose the Great Eastern
may very advantageously stretch her pinio1s
on the Atlantic. The number of passengers
to be taken has been limited to 300, all first
class: The passage money out will be f25,
and for the return voyage as well f40 ex-
elusive Of wines and spirits -
The ship will also take limited quantity
OF fne goods as cargo or freight, at f3 per
tun measurement Of 40 cubic feet. The time
which she will stay at New York depends
upon variety of circumstances, the princi-
pal, no doubt, being the amount of attraction
which she may prove to the American sight
seers; it will probably not be less than two
months. A very fair demand for berths and
freight already exists, and there is no reason
TO suppose that there will be any deficiency
in the number of passengers required. Al
southampton and the district in the neigh
borhood very sensible increase has taken
place, within the last few weeks, in the de-
sire to visit the ship previous to her depar-
ture. The admission is half crown, and
the receipts from this source are more than
sufficient to cover the whole of the victual-
ling expenses. l,t -- .rra

SINGULAR PRESERVATION oF. A CHILD IN A
WELL.-The late English papers tell story
OF remarkable character, to the following
efect In one of the interior towns of En-
gland two gentlemen, on an exploring expe-
ditlon, were peering down well, when one
OF them distinguished the voice of a child in
distress. After satisfying themselves that
there was indeed some one in the well, they
procured aid, and a boy, stimulated by the
promise of handsome reward, consented to
descend, and was lowered TO the bottom. He
foqnd there aliving child a few months old,
who was brought to the surface, and found
not to be seriously injured, though nearly
tanished for want of food. A young woman
Of the neighborhood is suspected Of having
lowered the child by cord to the bottom Of
the well, and left it there to perish. 1t is
thought that it had been there for nearly two
days when 1t was discovered.

AN INGENIOUS FEMALE gTHIEF--RoBBINa BY
CEINoLISE.-The Albany (N.Y.) Journal, of
late date says; fThe last thing against crino-
line has been told US by a gentleman belong
ing to the firm that was recently robbed Of
jewels TO such a vast amount The woman,
who Is model as regards figure, and pos
sessed of many arts of fascination which
catch the eye of the sterner sex, was fur
nished witha tremendous crinoline, which
swung to the right and the left in very
modish style. During one of these pendu-
lum movements she gave it an extra lurch to
the left and up it went over the counter,
covering a case of jewels of immense value
The lady and the assistants were all, of
course, In q bashful state of confusion at the
accident and the consequences which were
evident, and the gentlemen hastened to the
rescue. The lady blushed and quickly rear
ranged her dress, and, in the hurry carried
ofIthe treasures underneath it."YuT y Ip!l

The Peculiarly and Nece..,tv ar s,e,,


There is no fact more clearly established in
the physiology of man than this, that the
brain expands its energies and itself during
the hours of wakefalness, and that those are
recuperated during sleep; if the recuperation
does not equal the expenditure, the brain
withers-this is insanity. Thus it is that, in
early English history, persons who were con-
deInned to death by being prevented from
sleeping always died raying maniacs thus It
is, also, that those who are starved to death
become insane; the brain is not nourished,
and they can not sleep. The practical in.
terences are these: IL Those who think
most who do most brain work, require
most sleep. O. That time saved from neces-
sary sleep is infallibly destructive to mind
body, and estate. 8. Give yourself YOUR
children, your seryants-giye all that are
under you the fullest amount of sleep they
will take, by compelling them to go to bed
at some regular early hour, ani to rise in the
moment they wake, and, within q fortnight
nature, with almost the regularity of the
rising sun, will unloose the bands of sleep the
moment enough repose has been secured for
the wants of the system. This is the only
safe and sufficient rule; and as to the question
how much sleep any one requires, each must
be q rule for himself great Nature will mover
fail to write 1t out to the observer Under the
regulations just given!l nrftA wa 1a8lu

Downs, wet to the very skin, it happened that
his wife had been baking. So when he went

called out and said, "Betty, where he me
things?" "In the oven, said his wife. So

very strong iron chain was necessary to re-
strain him. They were even obliged to saw
on some OF his canine teeth His Appearance
