Curio us Detection Of q Criminal.

Not long ago there occurred in Prus-
sia one of those cases Of detection Of
crime by scientific means which interest
a large and intelligent class of readers.
A quantity of gold, packed in boxes,
was despatched by railway train. On
arrival at its destination, it was dis
covered that the gold had been stolen
from some of the boxes, which were re-
filed with sand to make up for the def
cient weight. Measures were at once
taken for the discovery of the thief and,
that no chance might be lost, Prof.
Ehrenberg was requested to make a
microscopic examination of the sand.
The Professor, who is member of the
Academy Of Sciences at Berlin, well
known for his researches into minute
objects, and his comparisons of volcanic
dust from all parts Of the world, asked
that quantity Of sand from every sta
ton by which. the train had passed
should be sent to him. Examining these
one after another, he at last came to a
sand which was identical with that found
in the gold boxes. The name of the
station whence this sand had been col
lected was known; inquiries were sci
ON foot at that station, and among the
persons there employed the thief wa'
detected. ,as ssf ail

"A correspondent Of the San Fran
cisco Balletal lately visited religious
meeting held in Canton, China, by
missionary. It was conducted in the
Canton dialect. The practices of COM
ing late, going out during the service,
and sleeping under diseourses, prevail as
in other countries During the service
a man came running in, with wild ex-
preston on his eountennnee, and asked
the minister what could be done for a
man who had been frightened to death.
The interrupted preacher gave him the
necessary directions and proceeded with
his remarks. But he was not allowed
to complete the service in peace after
this strange interruption. Before. the
sermon closed the military mandarin Of
the province happened to pass along the
street, in front Of the chapel, and the
congregation tumbled pell-mell into the
street.
