GIANT PowDER-IETEREsTISG EzPER,NESTs-
Last Saturday afternoon series Of practical expert
ments were conducted TO test the power and quail
ties Of the Giant Powder. The works Of the Com-
pany situated the Treat Tract on the Central
Road, about fge miles outside Of the city
The first experiments were to test the relative
strength OF Giant Powder with common blasting
powder. For this purpose a cast-iron mortar was
provided, having a six-Inch bore End a six-lnch
thickness Of metal. The mortar was surrounded by
wrought~lron band one inch IN thickness and Eve
inches in breadth. Into this mortar, placed at an
angle Of forty FIVE degrees wer placed eight grammes
(about onc-fourth ounce) Of common blasting pew
der, and 32pound cylindrical shot The charge was
fred by a fuse and threw the shot distance Of hf
teen feet The same charge Of No. 2, (the poorer
kind Of Giant Powder was substituted, and the
same ball was thrown 40 feet. The same charge Of
No. Giant Powder was used, and the same ball
was thrown SEQ feet
Next, the mortar was placed upright and loaded
with 30 grammes, or Is grammes less than an ounce
Troy, Of common blasting powder, and then a BED
ball which was packed in With sand. The charge
was fred, but nothing came OF It save puff Of
smoke, the ball remaining stationary. The ball vas
then removed and the same weight Of No. Giant
Powder was substituted, which sent the ball flying
into the air out Of sight This experiment was re-
peated and It found this time that It in the
air Il seconds. Next, the same charge Of No. 1
Giant Power was used, and the ball thrown
sii higher, the time occupied 10 It's ascent aud DE-
sce8t being Is seconds. So powerful was the force
Of this last experiment that the band around the
mortar was burst
4 third test was made TO prove the non-exploslFe-
uess Of tue powder from common fame. A box
containing about Eve pounds Of the powder was
thrown into boBhre. As soon as the fame had
burned through the box and 10 the powder gas
eOus odor was eiseernible. and the powder barred
with pale green fame, bat without explosion.
We have heretofore al length described the pecu-
liarities Of this powder Il Is nngraiBsd, Of yel
IoNish color, with specie gravity Of about l. Itis
insolubIe IN waier. The explosion Of the entire
mass Is instantaneous The force u 20 great that 1t
cannot be used In 1feArms.

Two things were remarkable In the first place
that if the dog. when thus dishonesty employed,
actually met his MASTER he observed great eau
ton in recognizing him, as il hshad been afraid
of bringing him under suspicion secondly, that
be showed distinct sense that the illegal trans
actions in which he was engaged were not Of &
nature 10 endure daylight. The sheep which he
was directed TO drive were often reluctant to
leave their own pastures, and. sometimes rivers
and other obstacles intervening, their passage
was made peculiarly difficult On sueh occasions
Yarrow continued his efforts to drive his plumber
forward until the day began to dawn, signal
which he conceived rendered IL necessary for him
TO desert his spoil, and stink homeward BY a cir
cutous road. 1t is generally said that this ac-
complished dog was hanged along With his
master; but the truth is he survived him long,
in the service OF a man in Lethen yet was said
afterwards TO have shown little Of that wonder
fnl instinct exhibited in the employment Of Mil
lar" Another instance Of similar sagacity,"
continues Sir Walter Scott, was discovered by
friend of mine in a beautiful little spaniel,
which he had purchased from dealer in the ca
nine race. When he entered shop be was not
long in observing that his little companion made
it rule 10 follow at some interval, and TO es-
trange himself from his master, so much as to ap-
pear totally unconnected with him. And when
he LEFT the shop, it was the dogs custom to re-
main behind him till he could find an opportunity
Of siezing pair Of gloves, or silk stockings. or
soma similar nronartv which II hronohk 10 ia
master. The poor little thing probably saved its
life by falling into the hands of an honest man"

MAIDEN OF SrxTY-FTvB MARR1Es YOUNG MAx
OF TWENTY -TuRER.-It isn't often that we have to
record the marriage of blushing youth to
cent maiden but here is a story Of such perform
anee. related by st. Louis correspondent:
At fashionable boarding house. a fashionable
thoroughfare, In this fashionable " future great
city," incident occurred recently OF so unusually
romantic a nature as to deserve passing notice. The
house was, but is not now, kept by maiden lady,
who, Of the temporal allotment vouchsaied
kind, has passed three score and five years, aud in
the management of her establishment she was ably
assisted by her nephew, bright lad OF fifteen
mers. Miss B. for such was her name) unlike
most fashionable or questionable boarding house
keepers ever heard of had, by close attention TO
business and personal supervision Of Der household
affairs, accumulated snug little fortune to wit,
thirty forty thousand dollars and was very com
fortably situated.
Last summer a handsome and fashionable young
man, apparently about twenty-three years Of age
came here from England, and engaged at a high fig
ure an elegantly furnished room and board at the
house aforesaid. He seemed to have no business
and for time paid his monthly bills with the rcgu-
larity Of cloekwork. 1t was noticed, however, that
he no longer wore the costly jewelry he displayed
his arrival, and it soon became painfully appa-
rent to the landlady that be was out OF funds She
seized upon his costly trunk and contents during
his absence one day, which she had right TO do
under our laws and be obtained a writ Of repleyin
for the recovery OF his property, and accompanied
officer to the house TO identify IT, The constable
took Rseat in the hall while the young and the
lady parleyed in the parlOr. The consequence was,
the young came out and paid the costs that had
accrued and gave directions for the dismissal Of the
suit. He had offered the spinister his hand and
heart, which she accepted.
Was in this humor wood
Was woman IN this humor %
His father. who wealthy Birmingham manu-
faeturer, had failed became bankrupt and hopeless
ly insane and no longer able to send promised re-
mittances. They were married the next day, the
house and fixtures sold, and he is now engaged
in profitable business, all which proves At least that
There g6ose % gray,
But day soon or late,
An honest gander that way,
And claimed her for hs mate"
