An Ancient Deed.

Amongst the documents copied by the
interchangeable system of Gen. James,
the DirectOr-Gencral of the Ordnance Sur
vey. is a charter or deed of grant made by
Edgar, King OF England. to n OF his
Thames, in the wear ga. \ fac-simile OF
it, with Il translation appended, is pub
li>hed, and it has an interest which law
yers as well as archieOlOgi>tS will appreCl-
ate. The property granted consists OF
three hides OF land a Nymed. i'll Devon
shire. now forming the site OF three vii
lagos called Nymet, near CreditiOn. The
body of the charter is in Latin, but the
description of the boundaries of the prop
crty is in AnIiO-SiXOn, and the indOrSe-
ment Of the parchment contains a medley
of the two languages. The deed Is not
long, but it contains some decidedly
strong language, expressed generally i'll
the learned tongue. The Endorsement.

priest Brightric gave for the r. lief of his
soul to a monastery III Crydiatnn. cX-
presses a sOr. of prayer that ANY one
who shall take it away or diminish it
may be stricken with a perpetual curse,
and perish eyerlaNtiugiy with the DEVIL
unless ne make atonemcnt. The interior
Of the deed contains no rCCltalS in our
sense OF the word. but, after a pio'lS tlic-
uiation analogous to that with which old
wills btgin, i; mentions the aivisahility OF
making deeds Of Gift in writing, 8 lest the
succession of pOSteriTy 1T swallowed in
the whirlwind of rapine and the clouds of
ignorance" The rest of the document is
not very essentially different from a mod
ern deed, and perhaps in the idea OF
some readers will bear comparison with it.
A very vehement blessing is invoked upon
those who, "movcd by a benevolent and
sincere disposition, shall trouble them
selves in amplifying the said grant" and

Many a wOman's happiness would be

could only have time to devote TO the cul-

can have the time if she will only decide

have over the lives of the children whose

4 New Motive Power.

The plan of propelling cars, o%nnibuses
and velocipedes by coiled spring has now
for some time been employed in England,
and, it is said. with encouraging results.
The motor used isan arrangement Of pow-
erful springs, encased in cylinders, like
watch springs on a very large scale. The
skill Of French machinists in this direction
has been called in requisition, and steel
bands, capable of being coiled and exert
ing great pressure, have been made in
lengths of 100 yards each. In Sheffield
some of the steel manufacture rs have
turned ont springs fifty and sixty feet long,
and said to be capable of the enormous
pressure DISCO pounds. To wind up these
springs requires, of course, more power
than is obtained by hand, and it is therefore
proposed to have them wound, at certain
intervals, by stationary engines. Some OF
these methods consist of a com binatiOn OF
spiral or helical springs.
