am desirous of quitting it in the most public manner possible, by giving to the inhabitants of your capital striking example of my magical powers.
 Pirnetti could not leave like an ordl- nary mortal it was necessary that he should crown his success in the Russian capital by something surpassing his pre- vious efforts ; therefore, on the evening preceding the day fixed for his departure, he announced that he should leave St.. Petersburg the following day, at 10 o'clock in tho morning, and that he should quit by all the city gates aU the same moment Public curiosity was excited to the highest degree by this an nouncement. St. Petersburg at that time had fifteen gates, which were en- compasssd by multitudes eager to wit ness this marvellous departure.
 The spectators at these various gates all declared that at 10 o'clock precisely Pirnetti, whom they all perfectly recog- nized, passed through. "He walked at slow pace and with head erect, in order to be better seen," they said ; "and he bade us adieu in a clear and audible voice." These unanimous testi- monies were confirmed by the written declaration of the officers placed at every gate to inspect the passports of travellers. The inscription of Pirnetti' 8 passports was inscribed in the fifteen registers. Where is the wizard, wheth- CT coming from the North or South, who could in these degenerated days perform so astonishing an exploit

A Weapon of Death.

The torpedoes which have recently been devised for use in the Bosphorus posses some new and peculiar features. They are of two kinds-ofensive and defensive. The latter consists of a strong wrought-iron tank capable of containing about four hundred pounds of powder and lying at the bottom of the water; from fuse in the interior pro- double wire and communication with d also provided with an index which floats within five or six feet of the surface of the water, and which, on being touched by the bottom of a ship, immediately conveys signal to the shore, whence an electric spark would be sent through the powder in the tank, the explosion either sinking or disabling the ship above it. The offensive torpedo, for attacking under cover of dark night enemies ships lying at anchor, consists of hol- low iron pear shaped vessel containing heavy charge of powder and provided with several percussion fuses. This kind of torpedo, is fixed to the end of @ boom some thirty feet long, which is at tached to the head of small steam launch. To the boom, which hinges on the head of the vessel, is attached chain which runs in board over @ pulley, and which can be shortened or heightened at pleasure, raising or lowering the tor pedo in the water. The upper portion of the torpedo-case is provided with five percussion fuses, one of which is cer- tain to strike ships bottom when pro- pelled against it.

A Chinese Theatre.

The San Francisco correspondent of the Chicago Times describes visit to the Chinese theatre
 The pit was full, the second tier cram med, and every seat in the house oc- cupled. Opposite us sat dozen more Chinese women, who were cut off from the rest of the audience by board partition. The orchestra consisted of one fellow who was smoking long pipe, and who was saving furiously at sort of fiddle with one string, of another in dustrious youth who hammered away with an immense pair of cymbals, and a third who let himself out by whanging did not seem to be so much music about it as there was noise. It may have been an accompaniment, but I could not the actors, and set my tympana to shud- dering with a mortal terror.
 A Chinese play is peculiar. It runs for two or three hundred years, and little of it is given each night. When one actor dies, his place is taken by an other, and the play goes on. Few Chinamen have ever seen the beginning and end of the same play. The one I saw had been going on for one hun dred and sixty-four years and some months in China, and for eleven years and eight months, has been in progress in this city, and they haven't got through only part of the second act.
 The part we saw was peculiar, if noth ing else. An Young kept up running interpretation, of which, owing to the war of the orchestra, I did not hear single word. The supes stood around among the orchestra with their hats on, and took off or put on the furniture as was necessary. The actors all came in at door to the right of the music" and went out through a door at the left. There was no dropping of curtains, no shifting of scenes. A couple or three actors would come in, jabber m moment, and then pass out.

How Did it End?

'Tis packet of letters, time-faded and worn, Which have lain in a dusty corner neglected ; Undated, for lovers laugh time to scorn, But signs of their age are soon detected, For their spelling is bad and their grammar is
 weak.
 And quaint are the phrases in which they
 speak;
 They were written before you or was born, And we see an old love through their words
 reflected.
 There's mellow savor about each line, Like the odor of rose-leaves dried and time-
 rusted;
 Like the rich boquet of some choice old wine Which ripens and glows all mould The time of patches and powdered tresses, Of 'broidered coats and blocaded dresses, Speak to us out of these letters of mine, And tell how of old they loved and trusted. Sweetheart" he calls her-the fine old word Rings tender and true in it's Saxon simpli-
 city
 He tells the old tale how his heart is stirred, Yet wayers and faints at its own felicity How he feared to speak and was nearly undone, How he spoke at last and the fear was gone And now he is tender and now absurd, As lovers will be who write not for publicity. And how did it nd There is nothing to
 show.
 The beginning only is here presented. Did the love grow cold and the lovers go On their separate ways? or was bliss pre-
 vented, As it sometimes is, by cruel father2 Or, one proving false, did this love end rather Let us hope that they married and never re-
