for such purpose, being sheltered from

also suitable, forty faihoms Of water being

The cable will be landed at ireshwater

be conveyed in three vessels-the Hiber-

SIGNS OF DEATH.-Dr. Hugo Magnus, as
sistant physician to the hospital at Breslau,
suggests that the tying OF tight ligature
around one of the fingers will determine
whether person supposed to be dead is
so in reality. Iflife be not extinct the ex-
tremity ofthe finger soon becomes red, the
depth Of the color increasing TO dark and
red and violet while the skin above the
ligature remains white. This is easily I'M
derstood, as, if there be any circulation of
the blood, the ligature prevents the return
of the venous blood, while the arteries still
continue to convey it to the capillaries.-
A test so simple can be applied without
difficulty, and seems to be quite decisive

ATale of Il Dog.

We bought new dog this spring but
the speculation was not thoroughly success
full. The man who brought him round tur-
ned him loose in the yard, and then left.
When we went out to get acquainted with
him he was exploring the slop bucket with
his nose, and as we approached he merely
glanced around and growld. We attempted
to pat him on the head, and then he sud-
denly dropped mouthful ofmeat, and took
three or four very earnest snaps at our hand
and leg. Wewere afraid somebody would
steal him, so we enticcd him that evening
into the kitchen with bone and locked
him in. He scratched the door and howled
all night, and breakfast was late in the
morning, because he wouldn't let the hired
girl come into the kitchen. When we got
him into the yard, we found that he had
upset the bread that was rising, and had
knocked eight plates off of the dresser du
ring his nocturnal skirmishes, The next
evening we felt as five would prefer that
somebody aoouM steal him, and we locked
him out. He amused himself that night
scratching at the door to get in and howl
ing. He can howl more affectually than
any dog we ever met. You would have
thought we had menagerie in the yard,
ifyou could have heard him. That day he
killed the pet cat, belonging to Smith next
door, and removed couple Of mouthfuls
from the leg Of Chubbs boy, who came over
into our yard after his ball. Then he tore
one of the sheets from the clothes line, and
gamboled with it until it was reduced to
rags. When the ashman came, in the af-
ternoon, he had dog, and our dog after
few social shifts organized combat with
the ash-man's dog and they rolled over and
among our tulips and hyacinths, for half
an-hour taking nips out Of each other, and
scattering hair about by the handful. On
toward evening he had Il fit on a pillowcase
which was bleaching on the grass-plat and
just as we were sitting down to tea Il po
liceman arrived with a warrant, sworn out
by Chubb, for our arrest for keeping fero-
cious animal upon our premises.
We wont around and paid the fine; and
that night our house was robbed and the
dog kept perfectly still till morning al
though we bought him for the very pur-
pose of soaring off burglars. Anybody who
wants to buy dog may have ours cheap.
We will sell him at sacrifice. We year
to realize on that animal.

EVER OF THEE.-A London periodical
says that the late Mr.. Foley Hall, the author
of"Ever of Thee I'm Fondly Dreaming"
was gentleman of wealth and great intel
lectual endowment. Admired and petted,
he lei a wild, helpless life, in which his
wealth melted away until he had not
wherewith to buy his daily bread.
The woman he had loved discarded him.
In the deepest distress he composed this
charming song. A London publisher gave
him one hundred dollars for it--a mere
pittance for such spendthrft. He wrote
other successful songs, but in Il moment of
weakness, depressed with poverty, he forged
the name of his publisher; and, notwith-
standing the most strenuous effort in his be-
half was made by his friends, in which the
publisher joined, Foley Hall was thrown
into Newgate prison, where he died, bro
ken-hearted, before his trial commenced.

FACTS FOR THINKING PEoPLE.-There
are a few, perhaps half dozen sewing ma
chimes of real excellence, differing from one
another more or less in principle, construc-
ton and adaptation one being suitable for
tailoring, another for bootwork, another for
family use, &C., &C., the rest are inferior,
and by far the greater number comparative
ly worthless.
1t is noteworthy that the sewing machine
for which the highest premium was award
ed at the Worlds Fair in New York in
1858, long since sunk into merited Oblivion.
The past fifteen years has seen numerous
machines, with high sounding pretensions,
rise with flourish, confound the simple
and vanish. So will it be while credulity
lasts. Time tries all things Use only fur
nishes the final test. AS the purchase of
Sewing Machine is, or may be, the act of
lifetime, care should be taken to get what
time and use have approved.
During the past six years the Howe Ma

THE PERsIMMoN.-According to a wri-
ter in North Carolina paper, the persim-
mon is one of the most valuable of trees.
Rum, wine and bear, says this writer, can
be made from the fruit, bushel of per-
simmons will yield gallon of rum To
make wine, the fruit is peeled and stoned.
Further this writer says: The bark is as
tringent, styptic, tonic and antiseptic, used
in sore throat, tevers, chills and dysentery.
Its antiseptic qualities have been consid-
cred fully equal to the Chincona. 1t is
more astringent than (dogwood bark) or
quinine. The ripe fruit will expel worms
from children. The wood is hard and
fine grained, suitable for tools and many
domestic articles, and when large enough
may be employed as a substitute for Guayac
wood. 1t is certainly one of the most use
tul trees in our country Exchange.

The English style of wearing the hair is
being quite extensively adopted by Eastern
fashionable ladies. It's not, as rule, be-
coming, but is neat and tidy, which is consi-
derably more than the prevailing fashion is,
at all events. The English style is to brush
the hair back from the forehead and fasten it
at the back in coil or knot Crimping,
frizzing and messes, generally, are abolished,
ditto the vulgar fashion ofparting the hair on
the side.
