Aged Youth.

This certainly, cannot be called n
very arduous life and the result of it
is, that most of our citizens look fresh
and are vigorous after they are far ad-
vanced.
An exemplifcation is seen in Cor
nelius Vanderbilt, who, in his 18th year
is perfectly hale and hearty; walks as
erect, and is 1.-the and supple, as if he
were still 40.

not the slightest ailment; is entirely

William Cullen Bryant, now 70. pre-
serves the physical characteristics Of
youth. He often walks or miles be-
fore breakfast; prides himself upon his
ability to leap fences and laughs at
the idea of being considered an old
man.
Daniel Drew, at 20, is as active and

George Law, about the same age, at

An Amphibious Boy.
surgeon Demonstrates that Lnud Anti
mails can Live Under Water.


A writer in the Chicago Times state,
that he has seen the infant son of DR.
Louis Shultz remain under water TWEEN
ty-five minutes without being injured
Shult2 claims that any land animal cat
he taught to do the same thing If taker
in hand Immediately after birth. Hi
theory is that before birth the circula
ton is carried on through the oval hole
between the right and left arterial ca.
nails. After birth the circulation is
conducted entirely blythe lungs through
the pulmonary artery, and the oval hole
OF the heart is gradually closed through
disuse. The vital functions Of the am.
phlbia are almost identical with those
of the land animals, including the hui
man species. Their young are born ON
land and would become incapable of
remaining under water, were they not
frequently forced by their dams beneath
the surface and thus the oval Of the
heart is constantly kept open until it
becomes one of the permanent func-
tions of the body
Shu. was convinced thatall land an
imals might acquire the same faculty,
and tested the matter by immersing four
newborn pups in water heated to blood
temperature. He first kept them be-
meath the surface two minutes, then five
minutes, and they seemed to enjoy it
rather than otherwise. When his child
was born he stole it from the mother
while the latter slept, and recklessly
immersed it in water at blood heat for
four minutes, keeping his hand on the
babes breast SO that the pulsation Of the
heart could be felt
Shultz states that it was twenty sec
onds after immersion before the blood
found its way along the old channel,
with bounding percussion which at
once startled him and relieved his sus-
pense. Upon lifting the babe from the
water it was ten seconds bcf)re the
lungs resumed their duties, and the cir
proceeded IN the natural man
ner. Shultz then dressed the infant
and returned it to its mother so quietly
that she did not imagine anything I'M
usual had happened.
The day following the experiment was
five times. 1t was not for
some time that Shultz informed his
wife of what he had done, assuring her
of a certain fortune il she kept the mat

How WARM Snow Is.-Last fall Mr.
Spencer, who has farm near Elk
Rapids, Mich, filled a pit in his field
with potatoes, covering them only with
boards and potato tops During the
night snow fell, and he was unable to
cover them with earth, and they remain
ed In this condition until the covering
OF snow. potato tops and boards were
removed, and the potatoes found to be
entirely untouched by the frost. Per
haps the most remarkable fact connect

The Atlantic Disaster.
Additional Details Of the Sad Afair.

Al preliminary examination as Ia
the cause Of the disaster to the steamer
Atlantic nothing of consequence was
elected. There il no doubt, however,
according to the statements Of the of
licers and passengers, that the Atlantic
was not properly coaled for the voyage
Mt this season. Her passage was not
.empestuous. She made nine hundred
miles in the first three days. Gales
acre encountered on the Goth and Goth
which lowered her speed to 1876 and llS,
but on the 9th she made 2ii miles :
2Sth, ls9 miles 30th, 235 miles 3lst,
26i miles, and on Monday, calm day,
but 100 miles. The ship had then pass.
ed Halifax, but, having on board only
100 tons OF coal, was put back. Ii is
evident that she was put to sea some
five hundred tons of coal short. Cap
tain Williams is retcent in regard to
his reckoning he had never been to
Halifax before. II is certain, however
that he was twenty miles nearer land
than he supposed, and his allowance
for the westerly current could not have
been correct. The sun and the stars
showed eight, but the ship, with the
wind abeam and aft, was evidently too
quick for the calculation.
THE FOUNDATION FOR THE CALAMITY
lies in insufficient coaling and n miscal-
culation, and, perhaps, some incompe-
tency upon the part of the watch on
deck. Captain Williams is silent upon
the all-lmportant point rs to his reckon
ing. All agree, however, that he was n
hero in the supreme moment, and any
one would believe it who could have
heard his heartbroken, sobbing accents,
My God, if | could only have saved
woman or child the memory of that
girl climbing about my neck and be-
secching me to save her will haunt me
to my own grave" Captain Williams,
nevertheless, was worthy OF the name |
Of hisillustrious prototype of the Oneida. |
He stood by his ship until the last soul |
was saved, or till safety was rendered
absolutely sure.
