the conclusion that there are three rings of

consisting OF small planets. The ring of as
teroids between the sun and Mercury has a
total mass about equal to that of Mercury
The ring which supplies our aerolites and shoot

WORK AND PLAY.-The end of work is to
enjoy leisure, but to enjoy leisure you must
have gone through work, Play.time must
come after school.time, otherwise it looses its

is not thing which has an absolute existence.
There is no such thing as play except to the
worker. Put white upon. white, and you can
hardly see it; put white upon black, and how

THERE is story of Sully's meeting young
lady, yelled and dressed in green, on the back
stairs leading to Henry's apartment, and being
asked by the King whether he had not been
told that his Majesty had fever, and could
not receive visitors that morning, replied
Yes, sir, but the fever is gone have
just met it on the staircase dressed in green"
Why why is a tea-chest, second person,
like about fifteen grains of quinine? Because
it is " tea richest" Thou teacheSt," in Latin
is " tu doceS,' and fifteen grains of qulnine are
two doses. 1t is very plain after you see it
clearly. Weak minds, however, should not

DEATH OF BowIE-We have heard many
interesting anecdotes of james Bowie, which
always placed him in a high grade among men.
His final fall at the Alamo in Texas, was in
harmony with his whole life At the time Of
the assault upon that fort he was confined to
bis bed by a severe attack of fever. There
were but two persons who escaped with their
lives, Mrs. Dickinson and negro man.
Bowie had some fifteen or twenty guns brought
TO his bed, which were ali discharged at the
enemy, who attempted TO enter his apartment
the narrow doorway being blocked up by their
dead bodies, and two disembowelled at his
bedside with his famous knife, which he always
wore upon his person. A more heroic defence
cannot be found recorded in history Every
male with the exception of the negro man, fell
at the post of duty, thus verifying the words of
the intrepid Col. Travis, that he would defend
the fort with his life" Mrs. Dickinson and
the negro attested this much Police Gazette
