Wonders Of the Created Universe.

The faculty of Sublimity in coniunc-
ton with Marvelousness, or, as it is
often called, Spirituality, enables man to
appreciate such subjects as can be mea-
sured or comprehended. Calculation
will solve a problem, and the result may
be row of q hundred figures; but who
can tell by reason how much they mean {;
1t is quite impossible to comprehend
them. They must be divided, or pre-
sented in some comparative manner.
The following speculations of Herschel
will illustrate the point in question:
"What mere assertion will make anv
one believe that in one second of time,
in one beat ofthe pendulum of clock,
q ray of light travels over 1872, 900 miles,
and would therefore perform the tour
of the world in about the same time
that it requires to wink our eyelids, and
in much less time than swift runner
occupies in taking single stride What
mortal can be made to believe, without
demonstration, that the sun is almost a
million times larger than the earth; and
that although so remote from us that a
cannon-ball shot directly towards it and
maintaining its full speed, would be
twenty years i'll reaching it, it yet af.
fects the earth by its attraction in an
inappreciablc instant of time? Who
would not ask for demonstration when
told that gnat's wing, in its ordinary
flight, beats many hundred times in a
second; or that there exists animated
and regularly organized beings, many
thousands of whose bodies laid to-
gethcr, would not extend an inch? But
what are these to the astonishing truths
which modern optical inquiries have
disclosed, which teaches us that every
point of q medium through which ray
OF light passes is affected with sue
cession Of periodical movements, regu-
larly recurring at equal intervals, no
less than five hundred millions Of mil
lions of times in single second! That
it is by such movements connected with
the nerves four eyes that we see; nay,
more: that it is the difference in the
frequency of their recurrence Which af-
fects us with sense of the diversity of
color. That, for instance, in acquiring
the sensation of redness, our eyes are
affected 4S2, 900, 900 of times; ofyellow-
ness, 542, 900, 900 of times: and of vio-
let, 7O7, 100000 of times per second.
Do not such things sound more like
the rawlings of madmen than the sober
conclusions of people in their waking
scnsesy They are, nevertheless, con-
illusions to which any one may most
certainly arrive who will only be at the
trouble of examining the chain of rea-
soning by which they have been OBJ
tanned"

MEAsuREMENT.-Ninevch was miles
long, 8 wide, and 40 miles round, with
wall 100 feet high, and thick enough
for three chariots abreast. Babylon
was so miles within the walls, which
was IS feet thick and 800 feet high,
with 100 brazen gates. The temple of
Diana, at Ephcsus, was 429 feet to the
support of the roof: It was a hundred
years in building. The largest of the
pyramids is 4S1 feet high and 654 ON
the sides; its base covers II acres.
The stones are about 80 feet in length,
and the layers 2OS. 1t employed $780,
600 men in building. The labyrinth
of Egypt contains 800 chambers and 81
halls. Thebes, in Egypt, presents
ruins 81 miles round, and 100 gates.
Carthage was % miles round, and con-
tanned 5000 citizens and 400, 900
slaves. The temple of Delphos was 80
rich in donations that it was plundered
of $500. 900, and Nero carried away
from it 200 statues. The walls ofRomc
are 13 miles round.

thought of that strange compound of

Thousands Of generations, 'ah us noisy
as our own, have been swallowed up

Cocoa OIL.-If the fruit Of the CO.
coa.nut is grated down finely, then
boiled for half an hour in considera-
BILE quantity of water, and allowed to
stand for few hours afterwards, until it
has become quite cool, thin stratum
OF oil will be found floating on the sur
face. It is devoid of smell, is clear as
water, is excellent for burns, and it also
makes good toilet oil, if kept in closed
bottles. In the Island of Ceylon, the
oil of the cocoa-nut is used for burning
in lamps, and in England great quantf-
ties are used for making soap. When
the oil is made in large quantities, The
nuts are rasped in a mill, then placed
in coarse bags, and submitted to Sc

considerable amount of moisture is ex-

HAPPY WoMEN.-A happy woman
Is she not the very sparkle and sunshine
of life? A woman who is happy be-
cause she can't help it-whosc smiles
even the coldest sprinkle ofmisfortunc
cannot dampen. Men make terrible
mistake when they marry for beauty,
for talent, or for style; the sweetest
wives are those who possess the magic
secret of being contented under any
circumstances. Rich or poor, high or
low, it makes no difference the bright
little fountain ofjoy bubbles up just IS
musically in their hearts. Do they live
in log cabin ?-the fire that leaps on
its humble hearth becomes brighter
than the gilded chandeliers in an Alad-
din palace. Was ever the stream of
life so dark and unpropitious that the
sunshine of q happy face falling across
its turbid tide, would not awaken en-
answering g!cam! Why, these joyous
tempered people don't know half the
good they do.
pB During the speech of a Superin-
tendent before Sabbath School gath
ing the other day, he told story of a
little boy who complained that his
watch was good for nothing, because,
as he said, "the hands were always in
the wrong place"

his youthful hearers, "did any of you
ever know little boys to get their hands

"Where did they have them ?" asked
the speaker.
"1n the sugar bowl" responded the
boy.-Mount Holly Mirror.
D1- A writer in the Atlantic Monthly
states as a physiological fact that wo-
men do not make puns. There is, he
says, an occasional exception to the
rule, the same as we occasionally find a
hen cndeavoring to crow.
B@ Madam" said doctor to an
old maid, "you must have little sun

"Law! doctor, have no objections
against having son and heir, but l

B<9- An afflicted husband was re.
turning from the funeral of his wife,
when friend asked him how he felt.
"Well," said he pathetically, II think
feel the better for that little walk"
M- "Wherc are you going?" asked
a little boy Of another, who had slipped
down upon the icy pavement. "Going
to get up" was the blunt reply.
