The Altitude at Which Men Can
 Live,

There has been great deal of discussion as to the altitude at which human beings can exist, and MT. Glaisher himself can tell us as much about 1t anybody. In July, 1872, he and Mr. Coxwell ascended in bal loon to the enormous elevation of 3I 900 feet. Previous to the start, Mir. Glaisher's pulse stood at 1G beats a minute; Coxwelfs at "A. At 17 900 feet the pulse of the former stood at S4, and that of the latter at 100. At l9,- 600 feet Glaisher's hands and lips were quite blue, but not his face. At 2l 900 feet be heard his heart beating and his breathing became oppressed; at 10000 feet he became senseless notwithstanding which the aro- naut, in the interest of science, went up an other 5000 feet till he could no longer use his hands, and had to pull the string of the valve with his teeth. Kronauts who have to make no exertions have, of course, a great advantage over members of the Alpine club, and those who trust their legs even at l3,- 900 feet these climbers feel very uncomforta- i ble, more so in the Alps, 1t seems than else where. At the monastery of St. Bernard s,ll7 feet high, the monks become asthmatic and are frequently compelled to descend into | the valley of the Rhone for-any thing but | Ia breath of fresh air ]" and at the end of ten years living are obliged to give up their high l living, and come down to the usual level. At the same time, in South America, there are towns (such as Potosi) placed as high as the top of Mount Blanc, the inhabitants of which feel no inconvenience. The. brothers Scgaginwelt, when they explored the gla
 cieTs of the Ibi-Gamin in the same country, encamped 2l 900 feet, the highest altitude ar
 which a European ever passed the night
 Even at the top of Mount Blanc, Prof Tyn. dall's guides found it very unpleasant to do
 this, though the professor himself did not
 confess to feeling as bad as they. The high.
 est mountain in the world Is Mount Eyeres,
 CiIimaaya,) 20O03 feet, and the condor ha.
 been swinging the blue air" 900 feet higher
 The air, by the way. is not blue, or else as DC
 Saussure pointed out, "the distant mountains
 which are covered with snow, would appeal
 blue also," its apparent color being due to tho reflections of light. What light can do. anC
 does, is marvellous and not the least is it, power of attraction to humanity. - Cham ber's Journal.

ELECTRICITY AND LIFE.-Recent studies have done considerable to determine what the action of electricity really is in the ex- citation of muscular irritablity in dead bodies. The continuous current seems to act on muscular fibre after the manner of heat. If dead muscle be exposed to cold, the cur rent restores contraction for a considerable period, but finally destroys it by inducing persistent contraction. If, on the other hand, the dead muscle is left at its normal temperature, the current merely shortens the period of durability by quickeDing contrac- tion. Experiments lately made with the Leyden jar demonstrates that, with a sui ficient current, small animals and birds car be made absolutely rigid for the moment 1T the position in which they stand and SC suddenly is the work done, so completely i the posture of life preserved, that nothing but actual examination with the hand cal impress on the mind the fact that the crea ture has with that sudden shock passed iron | life to death.

How to Get up an Explosion.

Here is a sketch in the new Mark Twain | and Danbury-Man vein, from tue Reese River Rcyeillc, which is as well told as the best of them can do:
 \ festive youth who performs his daily ayOCations in the mines of Lander Hill, thought he would take home little blast ing powder the other day: 1t might come handy to split an obstinate log he had at home. When he started for his humble cab in in the evening, he wrapped few ounces carefully in several thicknesscs of paper and placed 1t in his pocket When he got home he got to thinking about how long it would be before he was likely 10 get a crushing and then he thought what nice perfume that handkerchief extract, that he bought
 last Saturday night had, and he said within himself, that a miners life was hard and un- certain. Then he thought he ought to call on that Smthers girl tonight He thought of everything but that powder in the pocket of his coat.
 Aiter supper he concluded to drop in and see that Smlthers girl. He got his necktie in proper shape, hIs handkerchief was Der fumed like unto a new blown rose one oiled lock hung gracefully down on his forehead, and he started for the dOmicil of his sweet ness. This young man is coloring neer- schaum, but his girl detests the horrid smoke i; ! so when he got to the door he knocked the
 bowl of the meerschaum on his manly heel,
 and put 1t in his pocket. Of course he didn't
 intend to put it in the same pocket with the
 powder. His affinity met him at the door
 with sweet smile on her beauteous counten-
 ance, welcomed him to her paternal mansion,
 and invited him into the parlor and to a seat
 on the sofa
 They were engaged in conversation. He
 asked her if it wasn't a beautiful evening,
 and then she inquired how he liked the dress
 Miss Brown wore at church last Sunday.
 He said he didn't like it bit, and she re-
 marked that Miss B. was a stuck-up thing
 anyhow; and all this time that pipe was in. sidiously burning it's way through that pa
 per He agreed that Miss Brown Uns some what stuck-up, and said maybe we'd strike il pretty soon and then you'd see who would l wear plug hats. She told him sue thought plug hats sO becoming, and then he was go l ing to tell her he adored her, that she wa $ the darling of his soul, aud that all his hap } piness was centered m her No. boots bu Q he was interrupted. He arose from the foo : and inquired if the lightning had struck any d body else, and remarked something about tn s Virginia explosion being warning to peopl ', not to keep nitro-glycerne in their houses t Then he took off his coat. He said it was a e old coat and he didn't want it no how. Hi I. girls father suggested that this wasn't Fourt a of July, and if he wanted to set off firework d he ought to go up on the hill and do il 'e Then tue young man said it was getting lat 1t and he guessed he'd go home, and suggeste T. that he would send a man around to-morro r. to fix the sofa. He says now that f1axsee r. isn't worth cuss for poultice, and he ain
