RICH FOR A MOMENT British
ship Britannia was off the coast Of Bra.
I'll, and had on board large consignment
OF Spanish dollars. In the hope of saw
ing sou.e OF them, number Of barrels
we're brought on deck, but the vessel
went to pieces SO fast that the only hope
for life was in taking at once to the boats.
The last boat was about to push off, W hen
a young midshlpman went back to see il
any one was still ON board. To his sur
prise there sat man on deck with "A
ratchet III his hand, with which he had
broken open several of the casks, the
contents OF which he was now heaping
abo ~.
''Wha are you ling there?" shouted
the youth. Don YOU know the shin
l. fast going to pieces?''
the ship may 60. said the man; Il
have nved poor wretch all my life, and
L am determined to die rich. -
His circumstances were answered only
by another flourish OF the Ratchet, and
he WAS left to his fate.
We should count such person mad
man, but he has too many imitators. Men
seem determined to die rich at all hazards.
Least Of all risks do they count the
chance of loosing the soul in the strug-
gle at any moment at all. And yet the
only riches we can mug to our bosom
with joy. in our dying hour, are the rich
OF grace through Jesus Christ, which
We make ours before the dark comes. Oh!
bow rich many have died in their garrets
and huts, while kings and princes have
entered on the other life more destitute
than beggars. Who would not rather
choose to be rich for eternity, than rich
for the teeting moment in which the
ship is sinking into the dark waters.

NOTHING But FLAGS.

from the Soldiers Friend.
Nothing but fiags-but simple Hags;
fastsrsd and torn and hangingin rags
AID We walk beneath them with careless tread,
Nor think d the host of the mighty dead
That have marched beneath them in days gone by
With . burning cheek and kindling eye.
And have bathed their folds with the young
lies tide,
AL dying blessed them, and blessing died.
Nothing but flags; yet methinks at night
They tell each other their tales of fright
And dim spectres come, and their thin arms tw n
Round each standard torn, rs they stand in l. .
As the word is given-they charge they form
And the dim hall rigns with the battles storm,
And once again through the smoke and strife.
These colors lead nations life.
Nothing but dags-yet they are bathed with tears
They tell Of triumphs-of hopes-of fears;
OF . mothers prsyers-of = boy away:
OF . serpeat crushed-of q coming day.
Silent they speak-and the tea- will start
A. We stand beneath them with throbbing heart,
And think of those whoa are ne'er forgot
Their f1ass come home-why come they notf
Nothing but fags-yet we hold our breath,
And gaze with awe at the types of death,
Nothing but flags, yet the thought will come,
The heart must pray though the lips he dumb
They are pure, and We see no stain
Oh those dear loved flags come home again.
Bathed in Llood-ths pursst, best;
Tastersd and torn they are now at rest

How an Atmospheric Railroad is Op-
Grated

A trial line of atmospheric railway.
nearly mile in length, was recently con,
>tructed in the Crystal Palace at Syden
ham. The line was made with sleeper
gradients and sharper curves than any
lines yet worked, 50 to give the system a
full trial. The tunnel was carefully con
structed. 81 as to be Of uniform size, and
one end of the carriage was made nearly
{" fit it, an aperture of few inches being
LETT around. A brush fixed round the
carriage nearly filled this and was found
to exclude the air sufficiently. The ends
OF the tunnels were closed by air-tight
doors, and in building near one end
was fixed Il large fan. constructed some
what after the plan of a centrifugal pump,
and so arranged that by causing it to ro
tate IN one direction it exhausted the
tube. while on reversing 1t the air was
condensed. The pipe leading from this
entered the tunnel at little dis tanceflom
he end The carriage being now placed
III the mouth of the tunnel, at the further
end, the engine was set to work, and
u "on As slight exhaustion was pro-
uce the pre- 8 re o'.t de forced 1t rapid
n. As the whole area of the car
flage wa exposed tn the pressure. it was
iolnd that Only very small degree of
raretacton was required. a pressure ol
ii few ounces to the inch being quite
sufficient 20 impart to it great velocity
As soon az he carriage had passed the
portion of the tunnel where the exhaust
cd pipe entered, it ceased to be carried
forward 10y the pressure of the air, but it
had acquired an amount of momentum
sufficient to propel it with considerable
violence beyond the end Of the tunnel
The doors at the end We're, however
closed by powerful springs. The air,
therefore,, inclosed between them and the
carriage became more and more compress
ed. until the preSsuere was sufficient to
open the doors and allow the carriage to
runslnwly out. The air acted. in fact,
as buffer. and brought the carriage to
with scarcely any shock. When the car
rage was to be sent back to the other
end, the engine first exhausted the tube
until the carriage passed the opening.
the doors were then closed, the engine
then reversed. and then the air behind
was condensed and drove the carriage to
the other end on the same principle that
a boy drives a pea through pea shooter
by the pressure ofhls breath.

Luckily for him the article did not arrive,

the opinion that Of all the means OF locomo>

poorest and in corroboration Of which i: Is
asserted that at recent trial on the Union
course, near New York, mile in six -min>
utes Was the highest speed attained, and the
rider could not keek up that rate Of speed
even for y moderate length OF time. As this
rial was made under unusually favorable

may be concluded that the veioc'pede on

than u help to the rider.
