A NEW POWER.

For some time past the efforts of cleo
tricians have been directed to the inven-
ton of some process by which electricity
may be made available as steady, re-
liable and manageable motive power.
Steam, the great agent of our civilization,
that drives the world and brings the ends
of it together, is an expensive agent, re-
quiring costly and cumbrous machinery,
and is dangerous besides In addition to
this, steam requires to be generated, and
this renders fuel and boiler apparatus
necessary. The supply of electricity, on
the other hand, is ineXhaustible and
ready made This agent exists in the air,
in the trees, in the waters, in minerals,
in the bowels of the earth, in our bodies,
and in that great source Of light and heat
to US, the sun. The question is, how shall
it be collected in reservoirs, harnessed for
duty, and made to work steadily and do
cilely in the traces ?
There is prospect of this question be-
ing satisfactorily answered. Professor
Highton, of England, it is said, has de-
monstrated that electricity can be gather
ed in any quantity by using battery as
an initial force to start the currents, and
Mr.. H. M. Payne, of New Jersey, has in
vented an apparatus that develops two
horse electrical power, which has been
used for many mechanical purposes. 1t
consists of wheel, on whose periphery
are set six powerful magnets. Opposite
to the rim of the wheel, and surrounding
it in an iron case, are other magnets,
charged by a battery Of four cells. The
two sets of magnets are SO placed as to
meet each other during the revolution of
the wheel at different, but regular inter-
walls, and operate, as does the double
crank on locomotive wheels, to prevent a
"dead CENTER The power is conveyed
by the usual appliances, to shafts and
pulleys, and the little four cell battery,
with the force of two or three horse
power, will saw wood all day at less than
half cent an hour for the cost of the
zinc used in the battery. 1t is claimed
that the power may be indefinitely in
creased, by the increase Of the size of the
wheel, and the number of the magnets
without increasing the number of battery
cells, or increase of cost.
Electricians are confident of the success
of the principle involved, and it is said
that capitalists are ready to embark in
the enterprise for practical use. IF it
should prove successful, it will effect
nothing less than revolution in all those
industries that depend on machinery for
their prosecution.

needs; he cannot be satisfactorily sue.
cessful, even to his own mind, unless
each and all are equally effective in the
production of outlines, medium and fore
ground touches. These effects cannot be
equally happy with all "marks" of pencil.
Some will manufacture an excellent No.
1, or H, and fail at No. 2, or F. And
some again may succeed at both these
and produce a worthless No. 3, or B.
The nearest to perfection in all the
grades is, OF course, the most desirable,
and that in the present day is acknowl-
edged to be the A. w. Faber. That the
art of pencil-making has reached its cul-
minating point is, however, question

LEAD PENCILs-HoW few, who are
not artists, engineers or architects, know
the difficulty of obtaining really good
pencil; or rather set of accurately
graded pencils suitable to the various
requirements of drawing. And yet, how
still fewer are they who know the history
of the manufacture of this most useful
instrument of art. 1t is now nearly half
a century since there lived in the city Of
Dublin Jew, named Cohen, who was
possessed of a knowledge o. pencil max
ing which gave his name pre-eminence
among artists and draughtsmen in that
day. He kept strictly secret his mode of
preparing the Materials and even the
materials themselves, and shut himself up
in small room, which was his iaborato-
Ty, having communication through
funnel with the workshops, where his
son prepared the grooyed sticks of ceder,
passed themin to him and received them
back charged and ready for finish. All
was mystery as to the material, yet the
pencils of every grade were of extraor-
dinarily good quality, so much so, that
the stamp Of Cohen, Charlemont Mall,
Dublin, was the assurance of a perfect
article. Jealous Of his secret, lest it
might by any means get out, the old man
persistently withheld it, even from his
sons, saying that he would put them in
possession Of it before he died But his
life being suddenly terminated, the secret
was lost, and although his sons tried to
carry on the manufacture the Cohen
pencil was no longer a desirable article,
and the sons, emigrating to this country,
turned their thoughts to water color
making. Numerous pencil makers tried
the market after Coher, amongst whom
were Alderman, Langdon, Crosby and the
company called the Cumberland Yet
there was palpable want of a good pen
Gil such as the F, the FL, the FL B, the B.
and the B, of Cohen At last the
artists were suited again, and Faber has
by common consent, assumed and retained
the championship Of pencil making, in
spite OF the opposition which derives a
furtlve benefit from similarity of name
his grades are numbered instead of let
tered, and there are more than there
were OF the old Cohen make. The art
OF pencll-maklng has never acquired any
degree OF excellence among the French,
although numerous efforts have been
made by them in that line. The Germans
have succeeded in producing really
good article at lower price if not SO de-
sirable in the eyes of artists as the Cohen
of by-gone days. American makers are
DESTROYS of gaining for their manufacture
a name that viii be worthy of the spirit
OF the nation, and it is to be hoped that
the object will yet be gained, for there
is nothing so conducive to really good
art and the production of tasteful designs
as pencil suitable to the effect desired.
And it is not alone the sketching pencil

HOW TO WALK WE'LL.
From the Hearth and Home

From the Hearth and Home.
IT seems an easy enough matter to walk,
and vet very few ever learn how to do it
properly. One can reckon among his &C.
duaintance very many fine looking men
and women, but, perhaps, not one of the
entire number is "a good walker. The
ancient poet tells how the goddess was
known by her walk, but that distin-
gushing mark of exalted birth seems to
have passed away with the old mytholo-
gical days. We talk of lordly port and
queenly bearing, but such scions of roy
atty as have visited our shores seem to
have very little that is regal in their
personal carriage. We are not without
fine specimens of male and female beau
ty, but we are too often disenchanted
when we see these Venuses and Adonises
moving about There is no real reason
for this unseemliness of motion. Men
and women are particular enough about
their dress, but they shamble, trot, or
waddle along without much apparent
regard for the appearance they make.
Nine tenths of US, however, are depend
ent upon our legs for transportation,
when we desire to move from place to
place, and might, if we chose, make this
half involuntary action Of walking con-
duce very materially to our bodily health
and vigor.
One of the secrets of good walking is
to be able to balance the body easily,
first on one foot and then on the other,
and it is for this reason that recruits for
the army are first instructed in the
"balance step" When the soldier has
learned to stand steady on one foot, he
can walk without swaying, and preserve
that steadiness in marching which is al
ways mark of we'll drilled troops. So
if civilians wish to learn to walk as we'll
as soldiers they must, like them, first
learn something of the mysteries of bal
ancing. But it is not an easy thing to
stand steady on q narrow sole with q
small heel, and this is just the difficulty
with the walking of fashionable people.
The sandaled feet Of those ancient beau
ties, whose forms have come down to us
preserved in marble, are beautiful in
their unrestrained naturalness, and very
unlike those of modern bellies, or beaux
either, for the matter of that. Dio Lewis
advises girls who want to walk well to
wear broad shoes with low heels" and
"to keep their chins close to their necks,"
and although books and lectures have
been written on the subject, we believe
the whole story IS comprehended in
these directions, With low heels and
broad soles it is not difficult to balance
the body, while by drawing in the chin
the shoulders are naturally thrown back,
the lungs given full opportunity to ex
pand, and tthe head carried erect. We
cannot now dwell upon the influence
which an erect carriage has upon the
health, even when such enlargement is nee
esssry, but by acting on the above hints
with regard to wearing broad shoes and
holding in the chin, any person who is
not deformed may easily improve his
style of walking, and perhaps acquire an
easy and graceful carriage. Fashionable
boots and high heels must be discarded,
or it is useless to make the experiment.
