THEYDRANK WATER.

Man is, strangely enough, but rarely
content to enjoy the rich gifts of nature
in their first simple garb. He adapts it
to climate.and occupation; he fashions
it after his taste and makes it subservient
to other enioyDaents. Even the natives
of Kamtschatka, who, when first discov-
cred by Russian sailors, were probably
the only nation on earth that had no other
beverage but water. enjoying it after a
manner not found in civilized countries.
They commenced to drink it even before
eating, taking nearly two quarts before
their first meal 50 they continued dur
ing the day, and, when night came, their
Inst labor was to place n huge vessel Of
water by their bedside, and to fill it
brimful with snow and ice. Next morn
ing the bucket was empty. The Lapp
and the Greenlanders, OH the other hand,
prefer it warm. Both nations keep q
large copper kettle, or, where such luxu-
ries are still unknown, a ponderous yes.
sci of wood, adorned with bone knobs
and hoops, constantly boiling. A large,
well-carved spoon is ever ready, and
from morn till night the thirsty natives
are drinking the nauseous liquid.

PERSIAN JUSTICE.

A refreshing illustration Of Oriental
Justice has Just been Witnessed In Persia.
Tamasp Mira, Governor Of the Province
of Hamadan, finding that the people
were starving m the midst Of Compare
tive plenty, set about to discover the
cause and the chief dehnquents, and
having secured his proofs invited the
chief Cazi to visit him. At the inter-
view he thus addressed the interpreter
of the law "Cazi, what does the re-
hgious law lay down respecting the pun
ishment of those who continue 10 hoard
grain while true believers arc starving!
/" Such crime" replied the CAN, de-
serves DEATH ssThou hast said it, !"
exclaimed the Governor, and summoning
the executioner the Caz's law was forth
with put in force against him. The
next day the bread fell to six shahis the
batman, at which price it has continued
ever since.

ACROSS THE ATLANTIC IN 4 BAL--.
LOON -

Reading, Pa, possesses among its
citizens one Prof. Donaldson, who has
successfully made, since last August
twentv-four ascents in his balloon IN
various parts of the South and West.
He has been mp as high as three miles,
as indicated by his barometer, and, al
though many accidents have befallsn
him, he has survived them all. Having
performed many daring exploits above
the clouds, he now proposes, as he told
reporter of Reading paper, to cross
the Atlantic the ensuing summer, avail
ing himself of the current of wind
which, it has been ascertained, blows
from west to east at q distance OF say
two miles and half above the earth.
He:expects to complete the trip of 1900
miles in something over two days. Three
balloons joined together, with boat, bal
last, provisions, and all the necessary
requirements, and with . basket attaehsd
to the balloon, will constitute his SERIAL
trip. Previous to this grand venture hs
will make voyage from st. Louis 10

Il Among other.spoils which Alexander
the Great took from Poius, an Indian
King, was a monster elephant. Those
animals were then, as now, held in the
highest esteem in that country. That
particular elephant fought so bravely for
his master that the admiration of the
coaqaeror was excited in his favor. He
ordered him to be set free and allowed
to range at pleasure, first naming him
Ajax and placing medal securely to his
neck bearing this inscription :: Alexans

Cuvier, the great French naturalist,
saw no reason why whales should not
reach Thousand years. An eagle died
at Vienna that was known to be 104 years
old. Ravens have been active at 100
years, A skeleton of swan is in pos
session of an English gentleman that
died when 200 years of age. Tortoises
have been repeatedly fou1M with dates
cut into their shells by ancient hunters
showing they were over 100, and yet
were crawling on vigorously with new
markings into second century. 81
Scientists cannot fathom this law of
vitality. There is life period to most
of the animals very satisfactorily deter
mined, but how long man might live
is still unknown. No death probably
occurs in which the individual falls short

HOW OAKES INES LOOKS.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Sun draws the following pc n
portrait of "Old Mobilier:"
Ames is the most cheerful-looking per-
son of the whole sorry lot. see the
SIN calls him that "great and good
man." Great he certainly is. He is
the most ponderous member of either
House. He stands about six feet three
inches, and weighs well on toward 300.
He has immense arms and feet, and his
long jaws and stupendous nose constitute
by far the greater part of his person
above the broad, round, STOPPING shoul-
ders. He is pointed out hundred times
from the galleries every day as Old Mo-
bilier. 1t was an amusing spectacle to
see him recently with his great feet rest
ing on the arms of neighboring chair,
looking over, in his heavy way, the
famous memoranda" wherewith he was
going to corner and crush those who had
taken his. stock and moneys, and ther
repudiated them while in remote cor.
ners of the hall some of his victims
could be seen nervously watching his
aged eye and bobbing about like bird:
under the charms of serpent.

A SHARP FOX.

The Sporting Gazette, of England,
tells the following story: During the
last club hunting season of the Badmin-
ton hounds, Mr.. Charles Minett, of
Chalkley Farm, in the parish of Horton,
Worcestershire, was called out of bed
very early on the morning Of the 7th of
October lby his cowman to see a fox
sucking COW. On his reaching the
spot the COW was lying down and the fox
gone but the two upper quarters of her
udder, the only ones getatable from her
position, were empty, and the teats wet,
az if calf had smoked her. IT appears
that the COW, when there is much keep
and grass, does not retain her milk we'll
As it had trickled down the hill the fox
first Tapped it, and then traced it to its
source. Thecowwas constantly watched,
subsequently,, and the fox frequently
seen to suck her. So, constant was he at
one time that Mr.. Minett shut up the
COW, and preserved her mill, when the
fox turned his attention to some of the
other COWS, who, however, would not
stand il. hIa ri9

AN INGENIOUS IMITAT TIoN.

BY n very simple process, our Ameri-
can slate is now transformed into beau
tiful substitute for marble. The rough
blocks of slate are first planned down to
the required thickness, and the patterns
are then drawn upon the slabs, which
are cut into the proper shapes and pol
ished. The marbleizing is the peculiar
feature in the operation. The material
is prepared in vat, and the slab is lei
down upon the composition, which ad-
heres to the surface of the slate. The
slab is next baked in an oven for one
night, and then receives a coat of var.
nish, manufactured for this especial pur'
pose, and after six repetitions OF these
processes it is finally removed and pol
ished, the surface presenting beautiful
appearance. So firmly united to thu
slate is the coating that it cannot b
scaled or clipped off without taking thu
slaty particles with it.
