What We are Made of.

If the reader of this paper lives another
year, his self-conscious principles will
have migrated from his present tenement
to another, the new materials of which
are not yet put together A portion OF
the body which is to be, will ripen in the
corn of his next harvest. Another por-
tion of his future person he will Dur-
chase, or others viii purchase for him,
headed up in the form of certain barrels
ofipotatOes. A third fraction is yet to be
gathered in the Southern rice fields
TheIlimbs with which he is then to walk
will be clad with the flesh borrowed
from the tcnats of many stalls and pas
lures now unconscious of their doom.
The very organs of speech with which
he is to ask so wisely, plead 80 oeloquently
0rspeak effectively, must first serve his
humble brethren to bieat, to below, and
all the varied utterances of bristledom
and feathered barnyard life. His bones
themselves are, to agreat extent In pose
and not esse. A bag ofphosphate OF lime,
which e'has ordered from Prof. Mapes
for his grounds, contains large part of
what is to be his skeleton. And more
than all this, and by far the greater part
of his body, is nothing at all but water /;
the main substance of his scattered
members is to be looked in the reser-
voir, i'm the running stream, at the bot
tomlof the well, in the clouds that float
over his head, or diffiused among them

tleman and lady, arrived at that time of
life when they think sixteen and
twenty for each are meant, u awaited in
trembling anxiety the realization of their
earthly hopes. Last Thursday evening
was the time appointed for the coming of
the Rev. Mr. Reynolds, but when he ar
rived and was about to proceed "as the
law directs" it was discovered that the
young gentleman who had the license,
was missing and nowhere to be found
After considerable delay the minister's pa

in great trepidation. But. as love never
allows his subjects to know such word as
fail, this only added fuel to the flame
already consuming the "lovyers. /" A
courieliwas started post haste to the oppo-
site side of the creek to Rev. L. l.. Cald-
well, and in the meantime the gentleman
who had the custody of the liceiise re-
turned. The weather was extremely in
clement, and Mr.. Caldwell refused to
comply with the summons of the curier
at so late an hour, SO the ceremony was
postponed until the next day. In due
time the minister WAS EN- route for the
residence of the bride; but ON arriving
on the banks of the classic Hinkston
creek, the flood had placed an impossible
barrier in his way. Not TO lie thwarted

mental exertion should be avoided in the
evening hours and strong tea, especially
green tea, ought to be eschewed. The
latter has an extraordinary power of pro-

late in the evening, requiring active
thought to keep up with it, will induce
wakei,ilness in eXcitahle brains for many
hours after going to rest. In such cases

Yesterday, sitting opposite tome at the

bowing, he said, Truman, isn't it,"
To which i replied "Yes. But. how
changed! When last I saw him he had
his martial cloak about him, " and was
in the zenith of his glory and popularity.
No man who ever saw him upon a field
of action can forget him-lis dash, his
excited manner and his great personal
bravery and daring intrepidity. Now
he looked sad and care-worn. dull, dis
mai and unfriendly. His clothes were
clean but old and rusty, and his hair and
whiskers looked uncombed and shaggy.
But his friends-and he has hosts of
them-wiu rejoice to hear that "Old
Rosey" has at last been successful, and
that his mining Operations are o. X.
uponwhich the Dayton Journal makes
the following comment: .I...F,
"A soldier who served his country a
faithfully and ably as Rosecrans did
might be expected to wear a "sad and
careworn look' under the treatment he
received from his superior officers
History at least will be just to him."
The Journal is right. If we should be
asked to point to one blemish on General
Grants military record, we should say.

New Electrical Light--yvondtrrul
g. DtscnyArv.

Mr.. Fl, Wilde of Liverpool has brought
out a new discovery in electricity during
the past year, which IL described az ex-
ceedingly brilliant and important. He
has found amethod of producing electric
lty in quantities and of an intensity
hitherto unknown, by the action offeebie
electrical currents upon powerful magnets
His apparatus consists Of six permanent
magnets weighing only o pound each, q
ien-lncn electro magnetic machine, hav-
ing an electro magnet weighing three
pounds (which accumtilates and retains
the developed electricity, ON the same
principle as an insulated submarine cable
or the Leyden jar,) and an armaturc re-
Volving within an iron cylinder at the
rate OF fifteen hundred turns u minute.
The cyl inder. is about a foot long, and
has q bore of two and half inches; the
armature which plays within It, not
touching the sides, is coiled about with
insulated copper wire. 1t Is from this
arnlature, when the different parts of the
apparatus have been connected and put
Into operation, that the electricity is
evolved and the eflcctsar produced.
This machinery evolves light which
rivals the sun in its dazzling luminous
ness, and surpasses that orb in taking
photographs. At a distance of quarter
OF mile 1T throws shadows from the
flames of street lamps upon avail. Two
photographers in England have set up
the machine in their shops and now do
all THEN copying and enlarging by the
new electric light at night. The heat
ing power of the flame is so intense that.
1t melts seven feet of No. IL iron wire
and heats to red heat twenty-one feet
of the same wire in an instant. The cost
of the apparatus is small, the waste of
material trifling, and the expense of
working light. For lighting streets, for
lighthouses, and for Illuminating public
buildings the new discovery is far su-
perior to gas, and there are probably
various other purposes besides those al
ready indicated to which it may be de-
voted, if its properties are truthrully de-
scribed.

A Beautiful Legend.

They, tell a story, that one day Rabbi
Judah and his brethren sat in the court
san a fast day disputing about rest. One
said 1T was to- have attained sufficient
wealth, yet without sin. The second
said it was fame and to be praised OF all
men. The third said it was possession of
power TO rule the State. The fourth that
it must he only in the old age of one who
is rich, powerful, famous and surround
ed by children. The fifth said all were
in vain unless man kept the ritual of
Moses. And Rabbi Judah, the venera-
BILE; the tallest of brothers, said, aye
have spoke wisely, but one tlring more is
Necessary. He only can find rest who to
all things addeth this--that he kept the
traditions of elders. F" There sat a fair
haired boy playing with lilies in his lap,
and hearing the talk, dropped them in as
tonishment from his hands and looked
up-that boy of twelve-and said, "Nay
nay, fathers, he only can find rest who
loves his brother as himself, and God
with his whole heart and SOUL
He is greater than fame, wealth, and
powe; happier than q happy home with
6ut it; better than honored age; he is
law to himself above all tradition" /" oaI
