When man has the painters faculty
ofrecollecting faces, and with 1t a quick
and retentive memory Of small facts,
the com bination gives him great social
power. This was Macaulay's case, He
never forgot the face of a man whom
he had met in society, and with the
face he remembered all the salient facts
connected with the owner of IT. Few
things are more Aattering TO an ordinary
mortal than being thoroughly remem-
bered by 4 great lion with whom he
has perhaps had a hrief interview sew
eral years before. | doubt il this fac
ulty exists oany great extent among
our public men, indeed, ! have often
been surprised at the absence of it.
A Russian baron Of the true divine
right school once maintained to me
that this was an effect Of republican
Institutions, or, what camesto the
same thing, that the opposite was the
result ofmonarchical Institutions. lie
said that king and princes were obliged
to see a great many persons, wherefore
providence had conferred on them
various means of being gracieious to
those persons, of which prompt recogni
ton was one.

HUMOR AND SARCASM.

1t Is not everybody who knows

conditions had better not joke at

TO be humorous at the expense OF
people with when he ii but slight
~ acquainted. In fact, ii ii neith-
or good manners nor wise policy

one of this class, or he will bro cd

you have forgotten it,and it is not
prudent to incur amy ones enmity

Heating Power OF Weathed Gin.
iRra


The efforts at utilizing cinders for
building purposes have not succeeded
very well: and attempts to burn them
have also been unsuccessful, on account
Of the melting Stag which ehokes the
draft in short time According to a
communication to the Westphalia En-
gineers' Association by Chary, when
condensed air is passed over glowing
cinders in furnace, the carbonic oxide
formed affords flame several feet long,
suitable for heating boilers, &c, and the
experiments, as far as they 60, indicate
a heating power in the cinders from
which the larger pieces Of Stag have
simply been separated by haud) equal
to that of half their weight in coal. A
convenient method separating the Stag
seems to be the great desideratnm.
Washing the cinders requires too much
room for drying, and even after that they
will retain considerable moisture. A
current Of air, as employed in winnow-
ing grain, has been suggested.
