An Alarm -CIseL.

An alarm clock not only tells the
time OF day, but il can also awaken
| people liz the morning. I have such q
Clock in my,chamber. Every morning
about hve O'Clock il sets up such .
I whizzing and ringing, thes It wakee

have often thought that NY alarr5S
clock Is very much like ones con-
science. Every person who knows
God vii. has such "A clock i'm his own
breast; so that whenever lie is going
to do wrong, it gives an alarm, saying,
That Is not right; you must not do
that: God sees you" How important
1t Is to have conscience that always
tells us when We do wrong, aud that
checks Us when We are ia danger Of do
ing so.
But we must hcdr conscience when IL
speaks. If We always stop when ID
says stop if we always do what IL
tells US TO do, then we shall always hear
it. But II We get into the habit Of not
doing what it tells US, after awhile we
shall not hear it at all; our cofs516neo
WIZ become hardened, and we shall b
resoy to commit any sin, howeyed
great.
IN The town iii which formerly llv-
Ell, tIere was a boy put in gaol for
breaking into shopat night, and steal
ing money. This boy once went to q
Sabbath school, and had as faithful q
conscience, perhaps, Us any boy who
reads this page. But he commenced
doing wrong in little things. His con-
science used to say to him, Robert,
that IS wrong; you ought not to do
that" But he did not obey the warn
ing voice. He went on from bad TO
woise, until. as said, he was sent TO
gaol for stealing money
Remember, whenever YOUR con-
sciencestells you to do anything, do Il;
and whenever ittells you to stop, stop.

A Steam Army.

/ MIR. Henry BeSScmcr, whose nalUc i,
identified with q well known process oi
steel manufacture, has conceived the
idea Strengthening the delences of En-
! gland by an auxiliary steam army"
which would have at least this recon-
mendaticn for the economists: that il
would cost comparatively little TO crc-
ate, could be cheaply worked in time
of war, and during peace would require
neither rations, clothes nor pay. His
| idea is to have a steam firc-engino
! throwing a shower of bullets instead OF
water. a steam fire-engine can throw
Isl and threc-guartcr pounds, (reprc-
senting >, $40 Enfield rifle bullets to a
verticle height of one mile every min
ute, with q consumption of about five
pounds of coal and three gallons of wa
ter. These bullets would not require
to be made up into cartridges, are in
destructable either by rain in the open
field or damp in cellars, and can be ca
silly conveyed without fear Of explosion.
An increase in the weight of the pro-
jectile would increase both its range
and force, and two-ounce bullets might
be used for a long range, being propell-
ed at the rate OF 200 per minute. 4
machine with three parallel barrels
could throw twO-Ounce shot at long
range from the center barrel, and one
ounce shot 1000 per minutel at short
range from the side barrels.
1--WE certainly have" says Mr.. Bes-
semer, ain the steam fire-engine the
irrefragible proof of great projectile
power, with steam of only 80 pounds
pressure. Such steam would rush into
the atmosphere at velocity exceeding
1900 per second. Now, a two.ource
| lead ball presents transverse area of
90 of a square inch, and consequently
steam of $50 pounds pressure would inn
| pingc on il with force equal to ninety
| pounds. As the weight of the ball is
only two ounces, We have. a power
| equal to go times the work to be per-
formed. Ii is fair to infer that under
proper arrangements the bullet will ac-
quire nearly the velocity of the issuing
steam; but suppose that in practice it
| falls short of this velocity by some 500
feet per second, we should still have an
initial velocity of 900 feet per second
as compared with the ] 100 feet per Sc
cond, which is the ordinary velocity OF
projectileS from the Armstrong gun
An apparatus of this kind could bc
constructed far less costly and compli-
Gated than the ordinary steam fire-en-
gine. Mr.. Bessemer further suggests a
thin steel mantlet in front of the ma
chine, to protect il and the gunner from
the enemy's fire universal motion, y
for the delivery tube, which could be
directed on all sides as easily as the JET
of engine; apd the combination OF
this system with that of the Edinburgh
traction engine, which, if fitted as a
buliet-throwing machine, would not
only travel over tn, common road
without horses, but would find its
way over very rough ground, would
convey stores of any kind to other ma.
chimes, and in addition to its own fue
and water, would carry 100000 bullet:
for its own use. Mr.. Bessemer, witt
prudent patriotism, reserves the detail:
of the apparatus for the consideration
of tbe English military authorities.

S0lne time ago, tl0

whose worldly -mindedness had
SO strong as to make him a misei
ordinary kind. by depressing the

possible way, he had become exeee
ingiy rich.
One day the King wanted to borrow
some money ofhim. The miser, think.
ing that the interest offered for IL was
not enough, and fearing that, perbaps.
he might never get il back again. pre,
(tended that he had not got SO much as
Ne King wanted. He said he had met
with heavy losses, which had left hin,
quifs poor. Then he was afraid that
!iis ne1ghbors, who, he knew, all dis
liked him very much, might report 10
the government how rich he really
was; ard that, perhaps, some one
Would be vent to search his house, and
so he might lose some of his much
loved gold he resolved, therefore, 10
hide away - treasures, 30 that, If
search was IN Ne for them, they could
not be found out For this purpose he
had u large cave secretly dug in the
cellar of his house. This was walled
up and arched over, with door In the
top of it, through which lio couid no

ished with spring lock, which, on be-.
ing shut would fasfe OF itself. Here he
slowed all his bags q gold aud silver.
with the feeling that now his treasures
were perfectly securet
After awhile, the Inser suddenly Rs-
appeared. Inquiries were made for
him; the house was searches, the woods
were explored; the ponds were drag
ged; but no trace pf hipf could be
found. The people supposed that he
had taken his money and gone to live
in some distant plaSe where he was
not known.
Some time after, tlh house in which
hehad lived was sold The new owner
made some alterations and repairs.
While the workmen were engaged i'm
making them, they found the trap-door
to the miser's cave. They broke IL open,
got a light and went down. The iirst
thing that met their eyes, at the foot Of
the ladder, was the CHASTITY skeleton
of wretehed man, while all around
him lay heavy bags of gold, and great
chests Of treasure. He had gone down
to look at his riches, 10 worship his gol-
den god, and the door had shut upon
him, and fastened him in. No human
being could hear tile loudest shout he
might have raised. He was left to die
a miserable, lingering death, In midst
Of the riches lie go much loved.
There was gold In bags and in chests,
gold piled in heaps, gold strewed un-
der him; but, in the midst of it all, he
was starved 60 death. Who would be

The editors o. the "Pacific Medical and

A clergyman was taken very sick and

who was familiar with the treatment,
who stated that she had no shot, but u
bullet which would answer the purpose.
She gave it to the divine, who, after

\ few days ago the newspapers pub
lished a citation issued by the Masonic
Lodge of the Orient of Paris against
Reverend Brother William, King of
Prussia, as a traitor TO Freemasonry.
The King took no notice of the citation;
so he was tried as contumacious, and
condemned to communication. In
connection with this NJ. Victor Hugo's
newspaper, the Rappel, publishes the
following: Brother William is now
out of the pale of the law. All Freema-
sons arc authorized TO assault him and
to inflict upon him capital punishment
Ii remains TO be seen how the sentence
will be carried out. y Freemason, in
whose presence a doubt was expressed

nation, replied. DO not laugh; the

lodges of Naples and Milan. PiaRpri
and Orsini were Freemasons.
As the Gay closes, we all become
weary, and the body ycarns for the re-
pose and rest which only the quiet
chamber can fully give. The whole
system is weak-feet, fingers, arms,
everything. There is not muscle in
the body which does not participate in
/ that tiredneSs. The stomach is II col
lection of muscles, and these are called
/ TO work at each meal; and to dispose
| of that meal is work of four OF five
hours. The more that is eaten, the
more work has TO be performed. Any
one can see, then, the striking absurdi-
ty-of giving an already weak stomach
four or five hours work TO do at the
close of the day, of giving rest TO the
body by sleep, and yet keeping the
stomach hard at work until near day
light. Its repose, then is the reposc ol
exhaustion, and il does not wake uI
for breakfast any more than the body
would if kept out of the bed long past
midnight. Not being walked up, il
does not call for food and there is II,

tains nothing that is really important,
or which has not been presented
thousand times through the medium of
the newspapers Of the country.
Reading the message carefully, we
have been unable to find in it single
evidence Of the profound statesmanship
which should characterize a document
of such Importance and which is right
fully expected from the Chief Msgis-
stare of the nation. We are very
sure that the great mass ofreadcrs viii
turn from its persual with feeling Of
dissatisfaction, though perhaps not Of
disappointment; for fey, we imagine,
expected that it would posses any atrik-
ing evidences of farseeing statesman
ship.
The San Domingo job is warmly ad-
yocated; and as the Presidents person
al feelings are deeply Interested in thi,
we can pardon tile large amount OF
space devoted to it. But here, as in
nearly the whole fthe remainder of the
message, nothing new is presented
Il is merely rehash CT TIE arguments
50 frequently advanced by the Admin.
istration organs in behalf Of this pei
project of the President.
The brief allusion to the Alabama
claims difficulty will strike the public
with surprise. 1t is really astounding
that subject of such vital Importance
and in which, perhaps, more deeply
than any other the feelings of the peo-
pie ol the United States are enlisted
should be passed over with mere
mention. The pity is that the service,
Of Ben Butler or Charles Sumner were
not brought into requisition upon thi.
part of tho message.
But we refrain from further com.
ment at present. The people will reac
the message for themselves; that is, pro
vidcd they can be prevailed upon tc
wade through its dry details. But We
greatly mistake if public opinion of i
it does not pronounce the whole affair
estate, fiat, and Improbable.
