Thirty CENTURIES OLD.

The Oldest relic Of humanity cxtant,
is the skeleton Of the earliest Pharaoh
incascd in its original burial robes, and
wonderfully perfect, considering its ago
which was deposited eighteen or twenty
months ago in tho British Museum, and
Is Justly considered the most valuable
Of its archaeological treasures. The lid
Of the coffin avhich contained the royal
mummy was inscribed with the name of
its occupant, Phareah Mykerinus, who
succeeded the heir ef the builder Of the
great pyramid, ten centuries before
Christ. Only think Of 1.-THE monarch
whose crumbling bones and lcathery in
tcgumcn:s are now exciting tho wonder
of numbers of gazers in London, reigned
in Egypt before Solomon was born, and
only about eleven centuries or SO after
Misraim, the grandson Of old father
Noah, and the first of the Pharaohs had
been gathered to his fathers! Why,
tho tidc-mark of the deluge could scarce
" have been oblitcrated, or the gopher
wood knoe-timbers of the ark have rot
ted on Mount Ararat, when this man Of
the early world lived, moved, and had
his being. Ills flesh and blood were
contemporary with the Pregeniters Of the
great patriarch. Ills bones and shriyel-
cd skin arc cotemporary with the ninth
century, and the date Of the crNaifixion
is only about midway between > era
and ours.

wfTE FIRST PAIR.

The Rebolatioa, Madame Cady Stan
toms strong-minded paper, translates
from French writer the Hindoo legend
of tire creation of the FIRST pair. 1t rep-
resents ti,oIn as both created at tho
sarBo time, and endowed with speech
and conscience. They were placed ON
the Island Of Ceylon, and ordered not to
leave it. But after some time Adam be-
came restless, and taking Eve with him
rambIcd about the Island. At last no
camc to the sea, where there was aar-
row bridge Of rocks leading to another
land, which Adam, taking up Evo,
crossed There was an instant conyui-
sion ofnature, and the bridge of rocks
disappeared beneath the waters. In all
their proceedings, Eve had constantly
begged and entreated Adam to desist,
and not disregard tho will OF God. For
this obcdiept spirit, Brahma or God
appeared TO her and comfortcd her with
tho assurance that she should give birth
to Rcdecmer.
This varies a good deal from tho He
brew version, which represents Eve as
MOI created until after the sixth day, as a
sort of accident or afterthought, and as
the first to transgrcss and tempt Adam
to follow her example. On this account
the Hmdoo version is far more agree
able to the strong-minded, and they very
ciccrfully regard it as the moro ortho-
dcx.

TYDR. DRAPER makes out q very
strong case in favor Of "coffee as a civ
ilizing agent" He says:
"Those who have made it a subject of
study and examination, tell US that when
prepared as a strong infusion, without
milk, coffee acts powerfully on the SYM
pathetic nervous system and the organs
supplied by it, quickening their action
and increasing their vitality. That 1t
renders the contraction Of the heart and
other muscles moro powerful; enables
the body to resist cold, moisture, and the
deadly poison Of tho miasmatic districts
coun.eracts the languor Of torrid chimes
prevents or ameIiorates attacks o. spas
modic asthma; allcviates laxity OF the
kidneys and bladder, and it is even said
that calculus is not as common since it
has been generally used. 1t. also acts
with energy on the brain, removing the
sensation to fatigue and disposition to
sleep, which has always made it favo-
rite with students. 1t obyiates' the OK
ccssiyc indulgence in the use Of wine
and spirits; is an antidote to opium,
belIadonna, and the vegetable pOisOns
that act ON the brain; and relieves the
nervous headache to which many arc
subject. In BRIEF, it is not merely a
fashionable potation-it is ono of the
great civiIizing agents : for, by ihcreas-
inc his power of accomplishing brain
and muscle work, it has increased the
nower and influence Of nan.

Az increse of 2,762,77 square miles
in 81 years, acquired from England,
France, Spain, Mexico, Russia and all
contiguous countries. Tho New York
Bulletin says; There is much in this to
prove that our present great wealth
and power will continue to increase,
though not in corresponding ratio per-
haps; and that, at the close ofthe ccntu-
ry, our population will equal Zoe, 900, 900.
In 1910 calculation of future growth for
the future decades Of tho century was
made, that has been verified within three
hundred thousand on every occasion and
within less than one hundred thousand
in majority ofinstanccs. That estimate
places our census at 0 / 4 90, S24 in 1860;
il was 31,445, $50; a: 4l,32S, 432' in
1860; DC, 450,24 in 1850, 77,2G6,9S9
in 1890, and loo, 1856, $3.50 in 1900. This
estimate was further followed to 1885,
O00, 900 in 1880, i77,000,000 in 1910,
236, 900, 900 in 1870 and 2S3, 900, 900 in
200. The correctness of so much Of the
calculation as has been tried lends proba-
bility to the rest.
