A SINGULAR MODE OF TELLING THE
Hour. exchange gives the following
singular method of telling the time of
day or night, which we copy for the
benefit Of those who wish to try the ex-
pertinent:
Seat yourself ut table. Attach n
piece Of metal, say shilling, to o thread
Having placed your elbow on the table,
hold the thread between the thumb and
fore-fnger, and allow the shilling to hang
in the centre of glass tumbier. The
pulse will Immediately cause the shilling
to vibrate like n pendulum, and the vi
brations will increase until the shilling
strikes the side of the glass; aud suppos-
ing the time OF the experiment to be at
the hour of seven, or half-past seven,
the pendulum will strike the glass seven
times, and then lose its momentum and
return to the centre. If you hold the
thread sufficient length Sg tifae hps
elapsed TO convince you that the expert
ment is complete. We need not add
that the thread must be held with q
steady hand, otherwise the vibrating mo-
ton would be counteracted. At what
ever hour of the day or night the expert
ment is made, the coincidence will be
the same.

The following highly-suggestive article
is commended to the careful oonsidera-
ton of the rising generation:
FISHING WITH BEARDLEss HOOKS
Some months ago, business led me to an
out-of-the-way place, where, near by
fall of water, there lived two boys, ono
eight and the other ten years of age.
They were bright-eyed, inquistive little
chaps, but generally without either hat
or shoes, and often with pants and jack
cts sadly rent. Busted, as l was, in the
repairs of an old mill, these boys were
handy to send on errands, bring tools,
look after my horse turned out to bait in
the road, and do numberless little things
to save the steps of those who were
older. One day, on reaching the mill, I
saw the oldest boy standing upon rock,
partly hidden by the foliage. O. the sur
rounding trees, fishing; and, as oft ten as
he felt nibble, he would jerk his line as
spitefully out of the water as though he
bore the little fish some terrible gfudge
and wanted to pay it by twitching their
heads of. asked him why he did so,
and explained, as we'll as I was able, the
best modes of taking such fish as made
the little brook their home. After hear
ing me, patiently and respectfully, he
said: "Mister, you fish with hook that
has got beard on it, and when you
hook one, he stays. My hook han't got
beard; it's an old broken one that
'Lijer Green gave me. han't got the
money to buy new one. Mother wants
the pennies you give me. I like to fish
like to catch em for mother-and have
to twitch 'em when they bite, or they will
wiRgle off and shall lose them"
Iikod tho fo1lr nf t6of how n a:l
not grumble about his old hook, but did
the best he could with what he had to do
it with; and day after day, as I saw him
doing it, and taking to his mother the
reward of his toll, which had cost him so
much care, thought and skill, knew he
was laying with that alder rod in his
hands the foundations of grand charac-
ter. That ls the way Horace Greeley
began. He fished with beardless hook
His father was very poor, and he had
scarcely any books, and what he had he
was obliged to read by the dim light of
pine knots which his own forethouRht
had gathered; but he is now one Of the
ablest writer's, MS we'll as one of the most
Influential men in America. And so with
John Jacob Astor. He had no money,
or comparatively none, when he came to
this country, but he wanted to trade,
and SO he carried his little bundle of
goods around uuder bis arm or in his
hunds. He fished with beardless hook.
Afterward he bought furs and carried
them on his back, hundreds of miles to
market, and when he died, he had grown
from absolute poverty to be the richest
man in the country. There is scarcely o
great or good man on this side of the
Atlantic that did not have n tough time
in his boyhood, did not fish awhile fth
beardless hook.

The radical newsnaper press seen to
be unable TO cease Aauding Stanton for
his honesty-s si1Ale virtue which he
seems to ba7s poss9s&d. It In said thnt,
with every ohspos to steal millions, he
stole nothing; With avery chance. to
grow rich. In the saEne way that thou
sands have accumulated immense for
tunes, he died poor. At this, his politi-
cal friends are all literally astounded.
There has been nothing in their politi-
cal experience to prepare them for the
development Of such an eccentrioity on
the part of Mr.. Stanton. Forgetting
what commentary it is upon the lead
ers of the party, the Republi can news
papers cheerfully accept the fact that he
was not q thief as the beat eulogy Of the
deceased Secretary. What q signifioans
commentary does that single faot fur

BRITISH Actors AaEs.-In letter on
the longevity of actors, Mr.. Howard
Paul supplies the following particulars
regarding some British popular favorites:
AS one illustration of longevity, take
Mr.. Charles Mathews, who floats about
the stage like q butterfly, and counts up
sixty-fvs years. He possesses the same
elegance of figure and vivacity OF spirit
that distinguished him thirty years ago.
There is Benjamin Webster, at least
seventy, and still plays with remarkable
force, and has been an author as well as
actor, and has managed two, If not three,
theatres at the same moment. Buck
stone, Compton and CEesv;ck are along
In the sixties !; and ns for w. II. Payne,
of Cotent Garden, he has left seventy
along way behind, and walks sreotly as q
bog. and nightly, goes through panto-
mimic fatigue that would prostrate some
Of the young men of the period. Ma
dame Celeste, who still plays young
ladies, was O ''star" in 1889. Mrs. Stir
ling, despite her grey hair, looks hve.and-
twenty when che is animated. Mrs.
MelIen has been acting away any night
these thirty years; and as for John Parry,
did he not enohant our grand fathers,
and is he not doing the same for our
children? Mario 10 nearly, il not quite,
sixty, and women yet fall in love with
him; and Lester Wallack, OF New York,
who, IL he would count mp carefully,
would reach half century, is at this hour
the best looking js,sne premier on the
stage.

aged man of the purest character, for
merly a Mayor of New York, beloved
and esteemed by all who knew him. In
his pocket-book, was found printed
slip, apparently cut from a newspaper,
of which the following is copy:
"Keep good company, or none. Never
be idle. If your hands cannot be use
fully employed, attend to the cultivation
of your mind. Always speak the truth.
Make few promises. Live up to your
engagements. Keep your own secrets,
If you have any. When you speak to a
person, look him in tho face. Good
company and good conversation aro the
very sinews Of virtue. Good character
is above all things else. Your character
cannot be essentially injured except by
your own acts If any one speaks evil
of you, let your life be SO no one will
believe him. Drink no kind Of intoxi-
eating liquors. Ever live misfortune
excepted) within your own income.
When you retire to bed, think over what
you have been doing during the day.
Make no haste to be rich, if you wonld
prosper. Small and steady gains give
competency with tranquility OF mind.
Never play Mt any game of chance. Avoid
temptation, through fear you may not
withstand it. Earn money before you
spend it, Never run in debt, unless you
see way to get out again. Never bor-
row, If you can possibly avoid it. Do
not marry. until you arc able to support
wife. Mover speak evil of any one.
BE just before you arc generous. Keep
yourself innocent, if you would be hap
py. Save when you are young, to spend
when you arc old. Read over the above
