Curio.i,ie. OF the Paris hxpo.i,ion.

CuriOsities OF the Paris hNposauon.
The most attractive curiosities at the
French department of the Paris Expo
sition is newly invented cravat pin.
Everybody has seen how bells are rung
in all the new hotels. Instead of pull
ing the bell and making it ring by an
exertion of mechanical force, we press
a small hutton in the wall; this is con-
nected by an electric wire with little
alarm, the sclapper of which keeps on
iingling so long as the button is press
ed. Lift the hand from the button and
the alarm ceases. This principle n
French iewelcr has adapted to cravat
pins. The knob of the pin is OF va
rious devices. 1t is hare with tabor,
or a drummer with his drum, or a
deaths head with loose under jaw, or
dog. Whoever chooses TO wear such
pin has connected with it by wire a
| small electrical battery in one OF his
pockets. He puts his hand into his
pocket, touches button there, and of
goes the pin. The hare begins to pat
ter on the tabor, the drummer to beat
OH his drum, the deaths head to chatter
and roll its horrid eyes, or the dog to
bark and snap. When the hand is lift
ed from the button instantly all is quiet.
In the British department n curious
swan 9ttracts great attention. When
We approach the bird, we sec him float
ing as if in water, and resting his head
behind his wings. He is wound up, and
he begins to raise his head with all the
proper motions of the swan. He curves
his neck in pride; he espies some fish in
the water before him; he lowers his
head to sieze one: he holds it in his
beak for an instant: he then swallows
it, and, last of all, returns gracefully to
rest. The action is very pretty, and
calls forth loud applause. The bird,
however, is indeed very old, though his
plumage may he new. Its mechanism
was supposed to have been constructed
by Mr.. Weekes, who lived in the reign
Of George III; but il was lately discov-
cred that it formed part of the museum
of Mr.. Cox. a London .ieweler, who lived
in the reign of George H., and whose
collection must have been of some i'm
portance. as he obtained an Act of Par
lament to enable him to dispose Of it
by lottery. esr. ~ 20
Mr.. Harry Emanuel has put the clock
work mechanism in order, and has given
the bird new and beautiful silver
plumage; but this is all he had to do
with the invention of the toy, which
proves SO attractive to the multitude,
and which seems to eclipse all else in its
neighbOrhOod. cs.U

one of whom he shall appoint as Coro-
ner, who shall discharge the dnties Of
