cial and general, but toward the other end
which becomes conicd and tapers like a
Mihie bail, Is an aperature, admitting the
entrance Of metallic wire, the medium of
communication, the whole supported bv
solid iron frame work, and wei ching not
more than 100 pounds. At the facial end
Of the cylinder IL a hulloz hemisphere Of
IRON, whose interior surface is covered with
silver plate, constituting an elliutical mirror
having sOiid rim Que inch ia diameter. -
The face Of this rim is ground 50 smooth
that when it IS placed in contact with the
lace OF the cylinder, no air can intervene,
alc it Is held and kept !" this position by
strong spring y inches long, arched above,
and supported by the frame work, and
curved below, so as to form the signal key
by which the battery Is worked and made
70 evolve sounds from the organic atoms Of
the air which surrOund and press upon the
fan Of the rim aud Of the cylinder, with a
force equal to l5 pounds in the square inch,
the mUmeut one face ia separatnd from the
other. The distance Of this separation is
graduated BY two metallic bars, which con-
stitutd the Diatomic Staff, and from each
bar a tfsrent order OF sound is created
called the vowel and the cousonant sounds
respectively. By uailing ia regular order
the first aud second order Of iunds, the
Fulcimen OF third order is produced B
uniting the second aud drst order, tne Riful-
cimen or fourth order is generated, and in
commngling together the first and secoad
primary orders the VAlorem or filth order
Of sound is created, and tog -ther they rep
resent alt express, under specific symbolic
formula Of sounds, each letter q the En-
glish AlphIhet, and each Arabic N1t0tion I;
and each one is 80 characteristics and express
sive Of itself that no msiake can occur ia
transldting message. The inventor is Dr.
LAncelOt Hope Egerltt of New Orleans. L..
Who was elected a member of the K va
College Of Surgeons in Edinburgh sOmc
years agD. The d lctOris theory is that
sound Is a triune muieculs- of matter, I'll mt
inertia, impuisive force, and explosive
sound, and ez sts in all the organic atom,
" the world. That hs can evolve these
molecules from the organic atoms Of the
air in such a way by means Of bis Acoustic
Blttery, as 70 C hlect them into two dssim
liar units If sound, which be converts into
two primary orders. When thus evolved
the hemisphere mirror reflects them through
the 81 Id cylinder, whicn then iuducts them
ntn the cone OF the wire, through which it
pas 'es wiki great velocity to the distant end
OF the wire. This end is all the time in

rae soldiers Dream.


A soldier lay upon tho frozen ground
With only blanket wrapped around.
Wealth the rava OF a cold bright star
swsetiy dreaming Of his home afar
Visions softly, fair and bright.
Nuickiv swept before his sight
Voices of loved ones far away
Had haunted his soul thru the weary day
His mrther stands before him now.
With her pale yet placid brow
fniidiy ne lists to the whispered prayer,
Bicszins the boy lungur there
Ths lamp-light glows la an inner room.
w here sits a sister wrapped in gloom
The blood stained sxnid Of that weary aRht
All lis this that wrapped hertsoul in night,
A comrade noble, and brave As CAV.
Proud Of his Southern suit Of Fray.
Had won the heitrt of the lovely maid,
Mourning over the blood stained blade.
The brother face grew sad and grave,
AZ he behBid her lamenting the bravo,
w hn welding his sword in the nald afar
Nobly had fallen n the cruel war.
There sat his father in the old arm chair,
Tbs sorrowa Of many winters had silverod his
hair;
But the rigur Of yonth ran through his frame.
As he eead Of the victory the day had gained,
Then the little ones voices in merry riee.
At hids-rnd seek meath the old beach tree
Thrilled his saul - nc turned away,
Down where tho vine-clad cottage lay.
All, what is IL that quickens his pace -
see meath the vine a fair young faee
IN the star-Nghrs beautiful glow
lie watches the iove-light crme and 60.
Onward his hand rests upon the gate
An, bow sweet the decress Of fate
Bat the loving embrace was not his that night
Tor the reFeiiie sounded IN It's strength and
might.
Anl a comrade calling that h would not hear,
hell dali and heavily upon his ear
But tho weary, worn and wasted frame,
Siowiy took up his musket again
Then remembering his dream 80 fair and sweet
Ne cherily walked his lanriy beat
Fugotting how hard and stern Is duty

How the Ready Relief Acts !

In a few minutes the patient will feel
slight tineling irritation, and the skin be-
comes Redeemed; if there is much distress ia
the stomach, the Relief will assist nature in
removing the offending canse,-a general
warmth is felt throughout the entire body,
and its 0iTlsive stimulating properties
rapidly courses through every vein and tissue
of the system, arousing the slothful and
partially paralyzed glands and organs TO re-
newed and healthy action, Precipitation fol-
lows, and the surface of the body feels in
creased heat. The sickness at stomach, colds,
chills, headache, oppressed breathing, the
soreness of the throat, and all pains, either
internally or externally, rapidly subside, and
the patient falls into tranquil sleep, awakeS
refreshed, invigorated, cured.
1t will be found that in using the Relief
externally, either on the spine or across the
kidneys, OF over the stomach and bowels, that
for several days after pleasing warmth will
be felt, showing the length of time il con
tinues its influence over the diseased parts.

INSURANCE lMPosToRs.-A son of Erin
entered the Office of fire and life insurance
agency of the first responsibility and excit-
eddy exclaimed: 1.-The top o. the mornin' to
yer honor; but me ould wooden stable was
burnt down last night, an yen be affher
payin' me the $500 insurance on the same"
=" All right" was the reply; swell attend
to it."
Pat insisted that "no attintion was want
ed, but demanded the money, as the stable
was clane gone, intirely."
He was informed that, as the building cost
only $500 and as the city ordinance now re-
quired brick or stone buildings, according to
the terms of the policy, the company might
elect to build a new one, which could be
erected for $500; besides, the company is
entitled TO 60 days grace in the settlement
OF claims.
Pat rushed out of the office, exclaiming
" Onsurance is a divil of a humbug ~
Within month q new brick stable occu-
pied the site of the old one, but Pat was not
satisfied; for few days later he appeared at
the office, saying his policy called for $780,
IAN bedad, yen be after payin' me the
balince"
When he found that his case was hopeless,
he Indignantly turned his back upon the
officers, bitterly cursing all "Onsurance I'm
posthers'
A day or two later, Pat made third visit
to the same agency, and CONTEMPORARY
throwing upon the counter a thousand dollar
policy on the life of his wife, declared that
he was "done with insurance intirely, and
that if Biddy should chance to die (Which the
Lord Forbid, divil clint would ye pay, more
nor $500, if it so PLACED ye; an thin ye
would say that 'she's nothin' but an ould
woman, an that was all she's WORTH an if
didn't PLACE to take the five hundred, be
jabers, all we'd do would be to get me an
other Ould woman for wiie-may be nagur
in the place of Biddy Bad luck to all on
suranees that don't pay the cash when they
loses"
Pat went, muttering in his wrath, from the
office, but no more superficial and absurd on
the subject of insurance than many learned

THE FIREsIDE CHAIRS.


-ANo1--NE -
The daylight gains upon the night,
And birds are out in later flight;
It's cold enough to spread our hands,
Once now and then, to glowing brands.
So now We two are here alone
To make quiet hour our own,
Wen take, with face to face, once more
Our places on the warm hearth floor,
Where you shall have the window view
Outside, and can look on you.
When first I brought you home, my bride,
In yellow glow ofsummer tide,
wanted you to take chair
on that aide Of the ire-out there
And have the ground and sky in sight,
Wit face against the window light;
While l, back here, should have my brow
In shade, and sit where / am now
That you might see the land outside,
And I might look on you, my bride.
And there the gliding waters spread,
By waving elm trees overhead,
Below the hin that slopes above
The path, along the high-treed grove,
Where signing winds once whispered down
Our whispered words: and there's the crown
OF Dunclife hill, where widening shades
OF timber fall on sleeping glades;
So you enjoy the green and blue
Without, and will look at you.
And there we pulled, within the copse,
With nutting crooks the hazel tops,
That now arise, unleaved and black,
Too thin to keep the wind blast back;
And there's the church, and spreading lime,
Where we did meet at evening time,
In clusters, on the beaten green,
In glee to see and to be seen;
AL old sights welcomer than new,
And looked on, as look on you.
