a NOVEL MUSICAL INSTRUMENT.

a NOVEL MUSICAL INSTRUMENT.
a musical instrument called the
German Chime Bells has Just been
received here from Germany. 1t is
the first of the kind ever imported
INTO this country, though it has long
been used in the bands of the PruS-
sian and other armies. The inStru-
mcnt is made of brass, is about two
feet long by one and a half br ad,
and resembles Tyre in form. The
foot of it rests in a socket attached
to belt passing abOuo the waist Of
the musician, and he'd at the prop
or angie 10y cord extending from
the top TO the neck. The upper
projections Of the instrument are
oruamemted with pluncs, and the
whole makes very novel appear
ance. To the upright representa-
tons Of lyye strings are horizontal

bars, tuned to the various notes. BY

REMARKABLE PHENOMENON


The Syracuse (N. W Journal of
the 18th inst, mentions a very re-
markable phenomenon as having oc-
cured in The town of Marcelius last
Tuesday night. 1t says:
"A tract Of land containing about
three acres. lying upon both sides of
the highway, and situated about
four miles south of Mar, nllus will
age, at place called Tyler's Hollow,
was upheaved during the night by
some subterranean force. the sur
face being piled into hillocks as high
and as large as house, and huge
cracks and cIevasses were opened.
which extend iIregularly all over it.
The ground where the tract crosses
the public road was thrown into the
most fantastic shapes, rendering the
road impossible.
Ii is supposed the earthquake took
place ahou, midnight. but no noise
was heard in the vicinity, although
some incXpIicable sounds were re
ported as being heard at Marcellus.
a strong smell Of sulphur is noticed
IN the vicinity Of this remarkable
occurrence but nothing further tC
Indicate the cause OF the upheaval
This singular occurrence has pro
duccd a great excitement in the Vi
entity, and hundreds of people hay,
already visited the place"

A Rochester, n. Y. paper says
that now there is not a side wheel
steamer le,t upon Lake Ontario or
the St. La Srence, that carries the
United States flag. For some years
the residents on this side have used
British steamers for their pleasure
excursions, but an order has just
been received from Washington for
bidding Canadian steamers to trans.
port passengers from one American
port to another, or take them on
pleasure excursions, even though
they land at no port save that from

The Proposed amendments.

The amendments to our State
Constitution. proposed by the Coun
Gil of Censors. will he found in an
other column, and they should be
carefully read and considered by ev-
cry freeman of the State.
The time for the election of dele
gates to the Constitutional Conven
ton is near at hand, and 1t is impor
tant that men be chosen who viii
represent the views of the people
respecting the changes proposed III
our Constitution. The fifth article
is likely to be among the most prom
incnt before the Convention, and
there is reason to believe that anOth-
or batch of woman suffrage orators
Will be imported, and an attempt
made to influence the action of the
Convention through their efforts.
We have few advocates of Woman
Suffrage in Orange County; but We
are certain that the people of the
County are opposed 10 this attempt
to place woman where She does not
desire to be, and where she does not
belong. And in order TO secure del
cgates who will repre- sent the voice
of the people on this question. it
will toe necessary for the voters Ia
take an interest in the matter, and
see TO it, that the right men are
elected. Otherwise, the indifference
of the body Of the people will be
taken advantage OF 10y the jealous
agitatois, to secure the election OF
those who favor this Innovation.
We want to see this question PUT
at rest 10y decisive negative from
the people of Vermont; and unless
it is so settled it will continue to be
asitated.
There are other very important
changes proposed, among which i,
the Art. which gives t. the Govern
or the power of appointing Judge
OF the supreme Court, and making
their tenure Of Office six years III
stead of one.
We are not aware Of any evils at
,cuding our present method of elect
ing Judges by Joint ballot of The
legislature, and therefore can see III
cause for this change. 1t is takin!
power from the hands of the repre-
sentativcs of the people and placing
it in the hands of the executive, aut
us we think, without any good rea
son for SO doing.
The article providing for bicnnia
sessions Of the legislature and bieu
MA elections, we think should b,
adopted, as we think a session one,
IN two years would meet all our lee
iSlatiyc necessities, and I'D the stat,

The Phosphoarescence Of the Sea.

Every one recsgnis' the beauty of the
singular phenomenon that we call the phos-
phorescence of the sea, and has watched the
track Of foam and diamond points Of light
left behind as the steamer cuts the wave.
For long time the cause ef the shining ap-
pearance was puzzle to philosophers. But
the naturalists finally came to the conclusion
that it is produced by animalculs which are
excited to luminosity when the water is agi-
tated 1t was also shown that the phosphor-
escence is brightest and the sparks most
numerous Immediately preceding an atmos-
pheric disturbance. Thus, the little ami
malcua must be included in the long list Of
delicate organisms that feel the approach of
bad weather. Professor Decharme observed
this coincidence and has been diligently
studying the habits Of the tiny creatures and
their shining proponsities. He tells us, as
the result Of his observations, that they are
visible in the daylight with q glass magnify
ing about forty times. They are, under this
magniGing power, Of lens-shaped form,
and from seven to fifteen hundredths Of an
inch in diameter They are Of a transparent
nature, more diaphauous in the center than
around the periphery of their little bod es-

Statistics of Paria


The following curious facts concerning
Paris are taken from the Journal des Con-
nGisS0nces Medtc0les
The total population in round numbers.
100000, viz: $4,000 men, 7OO,O
women, and 250. 900 children. Of these
100, 900 inhabitants, 400, 900 live on their
private property, or on the produce Of their
professions, as government officials, lawyers,
physicians, and members of other liberal pro-
fessions; 100000 are in schoola, hospitals,
prisons, or religious fraternities 2OO, 900
are engaged in trade, wholesale or retail, in
shops, markets, or the streets 1000, 900
are occupied In manufactures, either as mas
ters Or workmen, and $4,000 are military
men of all ranks. Coming to more minute
particulars, manual labor employed in pro
ducing all the various articles, large and
small, constituting what is called articles de
Paris, is represented by 4I6,81l working
people. Ofthese, 285,861 are men, lO5, :
410 are women, and rs, $40, children. We
now come to the question, how many hands
are represented by steam in Paris? There
are 1890 engines IN the capital, employed
in variety Of trades, and forming an aggre-
gate of 10. 900 horse power. Now, as one
Of the latter is equivalent to the working
power Of seven hands, it follows to 416,811
working people above stated we must add
70, 900 hands, or $4,000 individuals more.
Hence, if all steam engines were suppressed
here to morrow, it would reqnire an influx Of
5000 workmen to keep the daily prOduc-
ton at It's present rate. t..
