A telegraph clerk of London, who was en-
gagged on wire to Berlin, recently formed an
acquaintance with an attachment for female
clerk who worked on the same wire in Berlin.
He made proposal of marriage, and she ac-
ceped him without having seen him. They
were married, and the marriage resulting from
their electric afinities is said to have turned out
admirably
In Mobile there are two twins who cannot be
punished for any offense, because neither of
them can be identified. Recently one of them
incurred some legal penalty and was arrested.
In court she proved to be her sister. A police
man accompanied her home to arrest the other.
but on arriving could not tell which he had
brought and which was already there, and went
away sOrrOwing without either.
The Paris Figaro has the following curious
story: IN. Geoffroy Saint Hilaire, director of the
Jardin discrimination, had for some time past
observed that his stock of small birds were di-
minshing every day, and he tried in vain to
dnd out the person who stole them. The whole
staff OF the establishment were on the watch.
nut Tor some time without any result, and the
delinquent was only discovered on Thursday
1t was one of the little African negroes who
walk about the garden with the camels. He
was in the habit OF eating the stolen birds all
raw, without any sort of cookery and at the
moment of his capture he was in the act of de-
vourng alive, after having pluckcd it, fine
rOSecolored crane, which raised horrible cries
The poor animal had an enormous hole in the
back when Mr.. Godfrey Saint Hilaire interrupt~
ed him. The negro, having been set free after n
severe correction, was three hours after found
IN the basin of the seal, engaged in a furious
combat with that animal, the noise of which
attracted the attention of the keepers. The am
ateur OF raw meat was Immediately locked up"

cautiously she inserted her hand. when it came
in contact with human hair in the midst of the
clothing. She called the name of her
husband, bat there was no response The
wife, horrlfied at the thought that her husband
was dead and locked up in the wardrobe,
screamed and ran to a neighbOr's The lady
and gentleman quickly ran in and pried open the
door, when Mr.. Thompson was discovered dou-
bled up in half sitting posture, cold notion
less, and TO all appearances dead. Dr. Griffith
was sent for and the body was taken from lis
hiding place and stretched upon a bed. The
pulse was examined, but no beating could he
felt; respiration had ceased, the limbs were cold,
the eyes set, and there was little doubt thar the
man was dead. Upon a close examination of
the heart, however, the doctor discovered a faint
and almost imperceptIble movement. The cloth
ing was hastily removed, heavy friction of the
limbs commenced, and proper restOratives adj
minstered. Gradually the circulation increased,
warmth was restored, and in about three quar-
tiers of all hour after the arrival of the doctor
Mr.. Thompson was able TO speak. Mr. Thomp-
son had entered the wardrobe and bolted the
door on the inside, doubtless thinking soon to
come ont of his hiding place; but before he
could come ont he had tainted from want of air.
1t is almost miracle that his life was preserved.

was no stranger, after all, but an old friend of
Harry's, called by him jack as famiarly as if
he had been his brother.
1t was a long, pathetic story, but the gist of it
was, that Mr.. Conway had rescued the baby

meant to use him as capital in her trade.

bOlic acid should be placed ia Il bottle and Gov

whitish colored foam appears; if such foam does
not arise, however, a small quantity Of powdered
lime should be added, with IA little water Pour
the mixture into dish or other convenient ar

as it is from that quarter the mosquito enters.
In my humble opinion, the effect should be
explained in this manner: The moment the

as the combined OdOr of the oil and acid is
much more powerful than that of blood, it fol.
lows as a consequence, that the mosquito be-
comes suddenly perpleXed. The consequence
is, that after scrambling and skirmshing about
in the dark, the mosquito Is led as il were, in
stinctiyely into the mixture, where II is either
drowned in the oil or burned TO death by the

The New York World, which has before made
alarming suggestions as to the enormous awards
which may be made against us by the Counter
claims commissioner" under the Washington
treaty, now returns to the subject, and fairly
frightens itself by the terrible prospect Its
method Of dealing with the subject is this A
Washington correspondent says that the num-
Der Of British claims filed is four hundred and
seventy, and If their amount averages $3.50 900
each, these claims would foot up in round num-
bers SIT 100000 But suppose they average
only 100000, the aggregate amount which we
would be compelled to pay to British subjects
would be SAT 900 900. On the whole, we think
it is merciful in the World to let
US of 50 easily What is $4,000 0Ol
mere bagatelle. As the World gives no
reason for fixing the average of these claims at
100000 rather than any other sum, il would
have been just as easy and much more impress
siye 10 say; Suppose they average $40. OO0, 900
each, the aggregate would amount to "a 700, 000,-
900, asum vastly greater than the whole national
debt Of Great Britain, which we shall, never
theless, be compelled TO pay to British subjects"
As a matter Of fact, the amount which the
United States will be called upon to pay on this
account depends upon some other contingencies
besides the aggregate Of the demands Of
British claimants. It Is not only posi-.
bic that some Of these claims may be
rejected, but some Of them have actually
been rejected already, the rebel cotton loan for
example, and Others doubtless will be. More
over, this commission decides, also, the claims
Of American citizens against Great Britain, other
than those known as alabama claims" and
the amount Of these allowed is to be set off
against the amountawarded TO British subjects,
IN estimating the value to this country of the
Washington treaty. As nothing definite has
been made public in regard to the amount of
either OF theseelasses Of awards, we may as wen
wait patiently until thecommissionersh have made
more progress with their work, before indulg-
ing either IN fears or anger in regard TO il.

csty in South Carolina and Louisiana; and the
practices charged against eX-Goy. Bullock are
not likely TO be repeated, at present, in Georgia
The attempt TO make the administration re-
sponsible for Warmoth, Scott, Bullock, and
their sort, is false and corrupt method of
dealing with the matter, which may as well be
discontinued, as it cannot be as useful a method
of political warfare as those who have tried it
were at first inclined to believe.

CAMBRIDGE OBSERVATORY Among the
many curious inventions existing beneath the
dome of the Cambridge observatory there is a
machine which is used to deneatc upon glass
the figure Of circle or square, by means of
finely drawn lines. This machine which is the
invention of Mr.. Rogers, who is connected with
the observatory, is very simple in its operation,
and draws each line with an accuracy which is
very surprising on account of the complete eX-
clusion Of the microscopic glass. Consequently
those lines which require microscope TO distin-
gulsh them are drawn with the eye unaided. This
is done by means of graduated plate of metal
which acts upon very sharply and very finely
pointed needle, so that it may be set at any
distance from line already drawn. BY actual
trial the skifpl operator drew upon a small piece
of glass twenty-four lines, separated by dis
lance OF 24OOth of an inch, in about a Minutes
time. These wonderful lines could be easily
counted through microscope but viewed with
the naked eye they formed single but some
what imperceptible line 1t was nearly impos-
sible to imagine the exceeding minute distance
which separated them Parallel lines had been
drawn upon other plates Of glass, which,
though apparently single, were found, when
placed beneath the microscope, each to be
composed of several distinct lines. A circle,
also, which was about quarter of an inch in
diameter, contained sixteen hundred lines
Their light was very beautifully reflected from
their minute sides, and the circle glistened
ana sparkled with all the colors Of the rainbow
Upon oneIplate of glass had been traced circles
within circles, the lines of which they were com
posed being scarcely discernible but when per.
ceived through the microscope each line as
sumed perfect precision, and the delicate sym.
metry OF each circle came out in exquisite re.
liei. The extremely inmate space in which this
immense number of circular lines were con-
tanned appeared to he very wonderful. There
were many other drawings, which were equally
astonishing, and which showed equally well the
iine skill of Mr.. Rogers, Il was to find among
the great instruments Of the observatory, which
sweep every portion of the heavens, and travel
capable Of producing lines which hid them
selves in their minuteness from the unaided eye
of the Observer Boston Globe.

TREASURE HUNTING.-'Ihe Inauguration of
the Arizona diamond excitement is evidently
the prelude TO perfect whirl of treasure hunt
ing enthusiasm. The Cocos island chimera
still affords the light of faith and hope, and an
other exhibition is preparing to renew the
search for "devl'S wealth" existing according
to tradition OF dubious character) on the lone
isle. We have still another project maturing
more brilliant than all, Of which only a few OF
the main points have yet been revealed. But in
due time, no doubt, California street will be
afforded an opportunity of taking stock. This
latter tradition Of great promise relates that
once on time, several hundred years ago, the

petition into the region of country now desig-
mated as New Mexico, They founded a city in
fertile region, on the banks of a beautiful
stream, and which became quite pOpulous

occurred, which turned the current Of their
river, or, indeed, erased it from the face of the
earth, and left the city untenable from the alb
sence of water. The inhabitants who survived
the calamity, few in number, gathered together
their immense treasures and deposited them in
pit, which was eXcayated on the plaZa in
front of their splendid church. They then at

by priyation or at the hands of hostile Indians

Consumption, like the old tabled monster, is dragging

thousands are continually asking: Who shall rescue

the whole matter. Anything that tends bring down
