The Song of the Savoyards.
BY II. A. BLOOD.

BY Il. A. BLOOD.
Eas poured past Broadway's lamps aAght
The tumult of her motley throng,
When high and clear upon the hight
Rose an inspiring song;
And rang above the city's din,
To sound of harp and violin;
q simple but manly strain,
And ending with the brave refrain
Courage Courage, mon cdnsdrade i.
And now there rose that songof cheer
Both old aud young stood still for Joy,
DE- from the windows hung to hear
The children of Savoy;
And many an eye with rapture glowed,
And saddest hearts forgot their load.
knd feeble souls grew strong again,
Nn starring was the brave refrain
eossvdge Courage, mon. cdmarade
Assne with only silence there,
Awaiting his LIES welcome close,
Il sack man lay, when on the air
That clarion arose;
so sweet the thrilling cadence rang
Ek seemed to him an angel sang,
.Arsd sang to him, and he would fain
Have died on that heavenly strain
Gossrage Courage, mon canaTdde'
{ sorrow-stricken man and wife,
With nothing left them but to pray,
Meara streaming over their sad life
That proud, heroic lay:
Amd through the mist of happy tears
T1aev saw the promise-laden years,
Il IL.
Aud carrolled high the fond refrain
Goswaget Courage, mon cdsndradet
Two artists in the cloud of gloom
Which hung upon their hopes deferred,
Eesounding through their garnet room
That noble ohanson heard;
ARd, as the night before the day,
Yseir weak misgivings fled away,
6nd with the burden of the strain
They made their studio ring again
Courage Courage, mon cdmardde!'
Two poets who in patience wrought
The glory. of an after-time,
Lords of an age which knew them not,
Heard rise that lofty rhyme;
anG ON their hearts it fell as falls
Tae sunshine upon prison walls;
And one caught up the magic strain
And 10 the other sang again
Courage I Courage, mon can,arade,
And unto one who, tired of breath
And day and night and name and fame,
Held to his lips a glass of death,
That song savior came,
Reseeching him from his despair
AS wath the passion of a prayer,
AnS kndhng in his heart and brain
The valor of its best refrain
Ce,sroge' Courage, mon cdmdrade
u tnou with earthly ills beset,
Call to thy lips those words of Joy,
And never in thy life forget
The brave song of Savoy
For those dear words may have the power
nc cheer thee in thy darkest hour
Eae memory OF that blest refrain
4kz1ng gladness to thy heart again!
Courage Courage, mon Camarade!

The Sand Blast.

The practical value of that wonderful
invention, the sand blast, has now been
demonstrated in such variety of way
and applications as to admit of no doubt
in regard to its permanent place in op-
erative mechanisms. It reproduces en-
glass the finest steel engravings, it
carves the most delicate designs on cut
glass, it engraves canoes, and it does
in five minutes work which takes the
most industrious stonecutter hours to
accompiish-solid granite and marble
dissolving before it.quicker than snow
melts in hot sun. And all this is the
result of the simple principle that sand
will act on the surface of glass and
other minerals, but not upon any vege-
table Or animal substance; so when a
surface of glass or stone is partly COW
cred with paper, cloth, leather, grease,
Or ink, the sand will fall harmlessly
away from the paper, etc., but will eat
into the mineral as certain acids eat In
to steel,

SpiritualiStS in Russia.

line st. Petersburg correspondent of
the Journal DIES Debats says that there
is great man for spiritualist mani
festations in that city just now, and that
the popularity of Home is far exceeded
by that which a Frenchman named
Bred:He at present enjoys. Home was
looked upon as something of diet
tante, for he only held his seances in
those houses to which he was an invited
guest, whereas M. Brediffe is always
ready to manifest" at the rate of
three roubles per head to company
not exceeding ten persons. AS plenty
| of people are willing to pay three
roubles on the chance of seeing spirits
he does very fourishing trade. The
correspondent of the Debats says that
| among the believers in M. Brediffe are
| several professors of science, one of
whom, M. Wagner, has published his
profession of faith in the last number of
the European Messenger. This declar-
alton. appearing in magazine which
| has so much influence in Russian So
clety, created a great impression, but so
far only two journals have made any eff
fort to refute M. Wagner's statements.
The correspondent adds that, ridiculous
| as the pretensiOns of the spiritualists
are, it is none the less to be regretted
that their doctrines should find accept
ance with men of intellect, for it hap
pens that, at this very time, the govern
ment Is endeavoring to put down the for
tunetelers, and to root out the popular
belief In wood demons, ghosts, ghouls,

The retreating chin is Indicative of

ton, decision, etc.

appeared to the little band on all sides
night was coming on, and, under the
cover of darkness, the Chinese steward
might obtain the mastery by some subtle
strategy. @
The whistling of the wind, the dash
of the rising waves, and the flashing OF
the canvas aloft, were the only sounds
that reached the ears of those in the
cabin.
But it was only for moment or two
that the treacherous calm reigned over
the ship.
A shout OF triumph rang through the
vessel, followed by few rapid orders,
then, without moments warning, a
bale of oakum, soaked in tupent inc,
was hurled through che open skylight.
The burning fragments were scattered
about the cabin, and as flames and
smoke followed, a cry of dismay
escaped Sylvester's lips.
"My Godl they have us now" he
murmured.
And he staggered back, his face pale
as death in the ruddy glow of the
flames.
But the calm, deep voice of the mate
resounded in his ears, restoring both
confidence and courage.
Give me some wet blankets, cap
tain, and bear hand, we will soon
smother the fire. The second mate is
guarding the forward door and he is
more than match for the devils.
Work sharp, sir, and we will yet gain
the day."
