The SnOw-StOrms of the Past.

The SnOw-StOrms of the Past.
 Among the great snow-storms of the past few were more extended in their range or more disastrous to life and property than that of January IF, 1867 It lasted nearly twenty-five hours, and was accompanied by furious gale and very cold weather It extended as far west as the Plains and was bounded on the south by the Ohio and Potomac, although some of its effects reached to Hampton Roads Another severe storm occurred on the 2Oth. Wrecks were piled up along the coast and scores of lives were lost. Many persons were bewildered in the snow and quite a number were frozen to death, especially in New England. Among these was Commodore G. S. Blake, who got be- wildered in going to his home in the suburbs of Boston and took refuge in hat. He never recovered from the shock of the exposure.
 From two to four feet of snow fell throughout the Middle States. Four feet was the reported depth in Pitts burg, and as it was much drifted, the consequence was the Interruption of communication between the cities and country for several days. Many people were barricaded in their homes. Steam boats were kept in port, rail-cars were snow-bound, and mails were delayed in remarkable manner. There was no regular communication by rail between New York and Boston for four days.
 The records of the past contain ac- counts of many similar storms but the most striking facts concerning them were naturally observed in New Eng land.
 The storm of January 19, 1857, stop ped all the railroads of New England The Stonington road was not opened until January 27. Trains did not com mence running between Hartford and Providence until the same day. In some parts of Connecticut the thermom- eter was 30 degrees below zero.
 In the storm of December 28, 1853, the snow began falling at eleven o'clock Wednesday morning and continued till four o'clock Thursday afternoon. The snow was drifted as high as the tops of the cars. A train of three locomotives started from 8 neighboring town toward Boston and was embedded in a drift at the end of the seventh mile. The next day O. train of three locomotives occu- pied from. morning till night in accom- plishing five miles.
 The great snow-storm of January 15, 1881 was a stupendous one. The snow was drifted in some places in the cities to the depth of fifteen feet. The churches were generally closed on the following Sunday partly because the snow was piled so high against the doors that the6 could not be opened.
 |" In February, 1929, so heavy a snow fell commemorative of Washington's birth day throughout the country were snow ed up in halls and had to remain in them for days. -N y. Paper.

The Ruby and Sapphire.

The recent diamond swindle having attracted much attention throughout tae whole world, the following abstract of paper read by J:=Lawrence Smith, at the last meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, will be read with interest:
 "The writer exhibited some speci- mems which he received from Montana. In referring to the density of rubies, he remarked that pint of these stones would make two pints with their con- stituents. The finest rubles and sap phires came from Asia and South Amer lea. Many of these gems were to be found in our own country, the God of nature having blessed us with every thing needful and useful. The speaker had bestowed much attention upon the subject of which he was speaking, hay ing explored Asia Minor, the Grecian archipelago, and the East Indies for specimens of the gems. Four months ago he received package from Trout River, Montana, and discovered that the contents of the package were true sapphires and Oriental emeralds. They were small, did not possess the right color, but nevertheless were. gems. | Montana was rich with them. The gems from there were perfectly transparent. The Arizona diamonds were the color less sapphire or ruby. If these were cut and polished, it would puzzle a jew eler to tell the difference between them and the real diamond. The Arizona gems were hard, and would cut any stone but diamond. The fact that they were so hard often led to the error of confounding them with diamonds. The l bod ho,oI f., roooiuo mack age of gems from San Francisco, from this meeting, but had failed to do so. gems which he submitted for the inspec- gems lacked value in the particular that half the value of diamonds if the green sapphires beyond a certain size exceed ed the dimond in value, for the reason that diamonds never get beyond that size. Valuable corllndum had been found in North Carolina, but most of it had been only half gems. Some were very pure, and are now being cut in Boston and set in jewelry. The gems from New Jersey lack transparency. The ruby most prized was that in which the faintest tint of blue intermingled withe the red. In sapphires the intense blue color is most appreciated. In con- cluding his remarks, Mir. Smith remark ed that America had all the metals oi the globe.
 "Prof. Kerr, in alluding to the loca- tion in which rubies had been discov- cred in North Carolina, said they were found principally in Cherokee and Macon Counties. Several mines were being worked in these counties, and had already yielded several tuns. A man in Philadelphia owned ruby which came from North Carolina, and which weighed pound. Another Phil adelphia gentleman had in his possession crystal of eorundum which weighed 315 pounds. The North. Carolina gems were only found in connection with the unique beds of trysolite. These beds extend from the old North State into Virginia, distance of 19O miles,"

One and Two Story Men.

All fact collectors, who have no aim beyond their facts, are one story men, Two story men compare, reason, gener- alize, using the labors of the fact col lectors as well as their own. Three story men idealise, imagine, predict, their best illumination comes from above, through the skylight. There are minds with large ground floors that can store an infinite amount of knowledge some librarians, for instance, who know enough of books to help other people without being able to make much use of their own knowledge, have intellects of this class. Your great working law yer has two spacious stories :; his mind | is clear because his mental floors are large, and he has room to arrange his thoughts so that he can get at them facts below, principles above, and all in ordered series. Poets are often narrow below, incapable of clear statement, and with small power of consecutive reason ing, but full of light, if sometimes rath- bare of furniture, in the attics. Poe, at the Breakfast Idbte.
 A California judge recently went tc San Francisco to seek relief from sin. gular malady which had baf1ed the skill of the physicians in his own town. The symptoms of the disease were very peculiar. The little finger of the right hand was first affected, turning green al the tip, and causing such intense pain that the sufferer was unable to sleer without the aid of narcotics. The same unacceuntable phenomenon appeared and disappeared successively from one after another of each of the other fingers on the left hand, passing afterward into the second toe of the left foot, and if nally seating itself in the extremity ot the middle finger of the left hand, al ways accompanied in it's eccentric re- movals by distressing sensations whicE rendeged everything like rest or repose not superindneed by drugs impossible

A MrpsUMMER. .NIGHr HoRRoI

A MIpsUMMER-NIGHT HoRRoR.-
Joaquin Miller relates story horrible
enough to satisfy the most ardent of
sensation horrors. 1t is about mining
camp in lonely district in California
where the scurvy broke out. They had
no way of treating the afflicted ones,
when one of the miners happened to re-
member cure he had formerly heard of
called the H earth cure" So they dug
six deep pits in the shadow of huge
pine, and buried the patients up to the
chin, having first taken off all their
clothes. The earth was then shoveled
back and closely patted down about
them, and the six heads in the moonlight
had a ghastly look, 4" like men rising in
resurrection to meet the judgment" The
buried men, like all bard-working mi
ners, soon dozed off into a deep, stupor-
Ike sleep. Their companions who were
watching them, grew dozy too, and crawl
ed off to their beds and slept soundly
till morning, when they went to see how
their companions were getting on. They
found that the wolves had been down
and eaten every one of the six heads
level with the ground.

Too Much CooL.-One of our citi-
zens called at an apothecary store yes
terday and drank glass Of soda, re.
marking that the soda was rather warm.
The clerk didn't see how that could be
as the tank was full of ice, yet at the
earnest desire of the customer the clerx
procured cor siderable quantity of salt
which he placed in the tank. OF course
the fluid was soon CONCEALED, and when
the clerk attempted to draw q glass for
the next customer the machine wouldn't
work. The perpetrator of the Joke stood
at safe distance and saw the fun. That
clerk says he wants to live long enough
to sell that salt cus(s)-tomer one more
drink, aud he will give him "suth'n :"
