M. de Parville now announces the possi-
bility of this great desideratum. He pro
fesses to place in any ones hands SELF
acting apparatus, which would declare, not
only whether the death be real, but would
leave in the hands of the experimenter
written proof of the reality of the death.
The scheme is this:--It is well known that
atrophine-the active principle OF bella
donna-possesses the property of consldera-
bly, dilating the pupil of the eye. Ocullsts
constantly make use of it when they want TO
perform an operation. or to examine the lnte-
rior of the eye. Now, M. lie Docteur Bouchut
has shown that atrophine has no action on the
pupil when death is real. In a state OF
lethargy the pupil, under the influence OF a
few drops of atrophine, dilates in the course
of a few minutes; the dilatation also takes
place few instants after death but 1t ceases
absolutely in quarter of an hour, or half an
hour at the very longest consequently, the
enlargement of the pupil is a certain sign
that death is only apparent
This promised imagine a little camera
obscura, scarcely so big as an opera-glass,
containing a slip of Photographic paper,
which is kept unrolling for five-and-twenty or
thirty minutes by means of clocllwork. This
apparatus, placed q short distance in front of
the dead persons eye, will depict on the
paper the pupil of the eye, which will have
Deen previously mOlStened with teW drops
of atrophine. 1t is evident that, as the paper
slides before the eye of the corpse, if the
pupil dilate, its Photographic image will be
dilated. if, on the contrary it remains un-
changed the image will retain it's original
size. An inspection of the paper then enables
the experimenter to read upon it whether the
death is real or apparent only. This sort of
declaration can be handed to the civil officer,
who will give permit to bury, in return.
BY this simple method hasty or careless
certificate of death becomes impossible
The instrument applies the test and counts
the minutes. The doctor and the civil
officer are relieved from further RESPONSE
bihty. The paper gives evidence that the
verlticatlon has actually and carefully been
made; for suppose that half an hour is re.
CURED to produce test that can be relied
on, the length of the strip of paper unrolled
marks the time during which the expert.
ment has been continued. An apparatus of
the kind might be placed in the hands of the
minister or one of the notables of every
parish. Such a system would silence the
apprehensions of the most timid. Fears
natural enough-would disappear, and the
world would be shocked by no fresh cases OF
premature burial

The leading features IN the char
acter OF the true woman are mild
ness, eomplaisance and enuanimi-
ty Of temper. The man, if he be
a worthy and provident husband,
lis immersed in a thousand cares.
His mind is agitated, his memory
loaded and his body fatigned. He
retires from the hustle of the
world, chagrined, perhaps, by
disappointment, angry at imsolOnt
and perfidious people and terrified
lest his unavoidable connections
with such people should make him
appear perfidious himself. Is this
the time for the wife of his bosom
his dearest and most intimate
friend-to add to his vexations, to
increase the fever OF his overbur-
thened mind by a continuous
tongue or a discontinued brow? ?
Business in its most prosperous
state is full of anxiety and turmoil.
Oh! how dear to the memory of a
man is the wife who clothes her
face in smiles, who uses gentle ex-
pressions, and who makes his
home happy to receive and hush
his cares to rest. The conscious.
ness that she will greet him with
her gentle affection, after the la
bors OF the day are done, lightens
the cares of business and purifieS
and ennobles the aims and pur-
poses of life.

In the lower part of Clinton
county, Iowa, there was, on the
Sd of July, one of the most violent
tornadoes ever known in Iowa.
Nothing was able to withstand
It's progress. Fences were swept
away like chat. Trees were
wrenched out by the roots
Cattle, hogs and poultry were
taken up into the air, carried a
great distance and killed. But
the greast scene of ruin and desc
lation was wrought at Malone, a
small station on the Northwestern
Railroad. Nearly every house
in the village was leveIed to the
ground, and one woman killed,
while several others were wound

A TOUCHING SToRY.-The Hon.

AToUCHING SToRY.-The Hon. |
A. II. Stephens, of Georgia, at q
meeting at Alexandria, for the
benefit of the Ophan Asylum and
free school of that city, related
the following aneedote:
"a poor little boy on a cold
night, with no home or roof to
shelter his head, no paternal or
maternal guardian or guide to
project or direct him on his way,
reached at nightfall the home of a
wealthy planter, who took him in,
fed and lodged him, and sent him
on his way with blessing. These
kind attentions cheered his heart
and inspired him with fresh cour-
age to battle with the OBJ
stacIes Of life. Years rolled round;
Providence led him on, and he
reached the legal profession; his
host had died, the cormorants,
that prey on the substance Of a
man had formed a conspiracy to
get from the widow her estate
She sent for the nearest counsel
to commit her cause to him, and
that counsel proved to be the or
Iphan boy long before welcomed
and entertained by her deceased
husband. The stimulus of warm
and tenacious gratitude was now
added to the ordinary motive con
nected with the profession. He
undertook her cause with a viii
not easy to be resisted, he gained
it; the widows estates were Sc
cured to her in perpetuity," and
Mr.. Stephens added, with al
emphasis of emotion that sent an
: electric thrill throughout tht
, house, "That bog stands befor
} goa."

Speak your mind when it isneces-
,sary. Hold your tongue when
prudent. Speak to a friend in a
seedy coat. IF you can't lend a
man money, tell him why. Ifyou
don't want to, do the same. Gut
any acquaintance who lacks prin.
cipal. Bear with infrmities, but
not vices. Respect honestly, de.
spise duplicity. Wear your old
clothes till you can pay for new
ones. Aim at comfort and pro-
priety, notfashion. Acknowledge
your ignorance and don't pretend
knowledge you haven't got. En-
terrain your friends, but never be-
ysnd your means.
