A Horrible Fate.

The Memphis AUala,scke gives the
following particulars regarding the UNI
fortunate death of Fred Hayden, clerk
on the steamer j. N. Kellogg:
At the early hour of l O'Clock yester-
day morning Mr.. Fred. Hayden was
literally cooked alive as he lay asleep in
the berth of his state-room, on board of
the steamer J. N. Kellogg, some 40
miles above this city. The cause of the
mishap was the bursting of the valve
that connects the siphon pump with the
boats boilers. The break in the pipe
occurred directly beneath the room
where Mr.. Hayden slumbered, and the
rush of steam was so great after it hap
pened that no one could approach near
enough to afford relief to the unconscious
sufferer. Captain John Little, the boats
commander, attempted to rescue him,
but found the room door locked. When
it was broken open he put his hand into
the fog of hot steam and caught hold of
the scalded mans foot, only to get a
handful of cooked human flesh, that
peeled from. the limb like flake of cot
ton from lint room. It was after
wards found that the force of the hot
steam caused part of the mans skin,
flesh and hair to stick fast to the bulk
head or partition of the state-room.
The victim, Mr.. Hayden, was resi-
dent of Springfield, ILL.,, aged 81 years,
and he had been on the Kellogg since
the 18th of February last. He was I'M
married. The colors of the boat were
half-masted yesterday in respect to the
memory of the deceased. His remains
were shipped by express during the day
to the home Of his childhood, at Spring
! field, Ill.

Birds at Home.


Mrs. John Ramage, Windsor Street,
between Fifth and Sixth, has been feed
ing hundreds of birds each winter, and
even thousands during the severest
weather. During very cold snaps she
has given up nearly the whole Of the
second story of her house to the birds.
She likes them and they like her. They
come flying around her when she calls.
She has no children to brighten them,
and the three cats never try to catch
any of them, but walk right through
their midst while they are hopping
around on the ground. The big old dog
also used to step over the little birds If
any were in his pathway, but he is dead
now. Mr.. and Mrs. Ramage own two
acres of land which are estimated to be
worth $4,000, and the birds occupy
this tract. Mrs. Ramage remarked to
an Eagle reporter that no one has hard
" an idea what it costs to feed SO many
birds during whole winter. However,
they required less feeding last winter
than usual, on account of the mildness
of the weather. The English sparrows
keep many other kinds Of little birds
away, but there are some kinds that
come each spring and stay. There are
more robins on the premises this year
than at any time heretofore. - Readin1

THE effect of light, regarded as the
revival of life in the vegetable world,
has just been illustrated by the observa-
tions near Athens of Prof. Hendreich
under very curious circumstances. The
mines at Laurium, concerning which Of
late years there have been such active
diplomatic procedures, consist for the
most part of the scoria produced by the
workings Of the ancient Greeks. These
still contain great deal Of silver, which
can be extracted by the superior appli-
ances of modern times. Beneath these
scori@ have lain in dormant state for
at least one thousand five hundred years
the seeds Of kind of poppy of the
genus Glaucium. But since the scorie
have been removed to the furnaces this
plant has sprung up with its pretty yell
low petals over the whole space which
they covered. Unknown in modern
times, it was described by Pliny and
Dioscorides, and had disappeared from
the face of the globe for fifteen or TWEEN
ty centuries.

Requisites for q Newspaper Man.

The venerable Curtis Guild, of the
Boston Commercial Bulletin, lately
made little speech to an assemblage
of Press men, in which he said:
What then, some one may inquire,
are the requisites for the newspaper
business? An answert to this suggests
itself to my mind in a reply in some
what powerful terms, viii admit, that

man of twenty-five or three who once
waited upon me with an inquiry of a
similar nature. He had few thousand
dollars, and had just graduated from
college and wanted to Join with some

one outside the business one of the east

money to start with; but it is not the
starting, but the keeping Of it going at
a profit, that calls for brains. ! recall
now the repR, prompted by a days
severe and exhausting work, when, at
ter listening as patiently as possible to
the young mans crude notions respect
ing a business in which he had no ex-
perience, he begged I would tell him in
as few words as possible the qualifica-
tons necessary to prosecute the bust
ness successfully. He was somewhat
startled by the assertion that they were

IT often happens that the ink with
which old records were written, upon
either paper or parchment, has faded
and rendered the characters entirely
undecipherable. It is well, therefore,
to know that such writing may easily
be rendered legible by moistening the
paper with water and then passing over
the lines in writing a brush which has
been dipped in q solution Of sulphide
of ammonium. The writing will inn
mediately appear quite dark in color,
and this color, in the case Of parch-
ment, it viii preserve. Records which
were treated in this way in the German
ic Museum in Nuremberg ten years ago
are still in the same condition as imme-
diately after the application Of the sui
phide. The explanation Of the action
of this substance is very simple; the
iron which enters into the composition
of the ink is transformed by the reac-
ton into the black sulphide.

A Novel Piece Of Mechanism.

Mr.. Andrew Gaudron, of 235 st.
Aubin Avenue, says the Detroit Tribune,
is, after nearly year Of constant labor,
about completing complicated piece
of mechanism, intended to represent
"The Resurrection of General Wash
ington," and which it is his intention to
exhibitatthe Centennial Exposition. The
whole apparatus is enclosed in cabinet
9 feet high, 81 feet broad, and 81 feet
deep. The lower half contains the ma
chinery, and in the upper portion the
diorama is displayed. The scene is a
fac-simile of the tomb of Washington.
Upon one side stands an American and
on the other French soldier of the
present day, while at the side and upon
the recess beyond are painted allegor-
ical figures and emblems. The machin-
cry, which is quite complicated, is ope-
rated by spring similar to those used
in clock. When it is set in motion q
miniature cannon is fred, q bell is tolled,
and curtain, suspended across the face
OF the recess of the cabinet, rises slowly,
bringing to view the tomb and sentinel
soldiers. The latter stand at an tor
der.'' In the course of a minute or SO
the tomb opens, fac-simile of the
father of his country arises therefrom.
simultaneously, the soldiers face toward
the tomb and present arms, and Wash
ington performs the usual mill
tary salutation. Then there de-
sends from the clouds an Ameri-
can eagle, holding in its talons
staff, on one end of which is an Amer
lean flag and upon the other the ma
tional ensign Of France, carrying in its
beak laurel wreath with which it
crowns the resurrected Washington.
The machinery continues to revolve,
and the scene is reversed and repeated
as often as is desired, each representa-
ton requiring about three minutes.
The figures are made upon scale of
about three inches to the foot. The
heads are carved by Mr.. Julius Melchers,
and the bodies are infinitely correct and
properly proportioned. The guns car
ried by the soldiers are in exact imita-
ten Of Springfield rifles, and the cos
tune Of the soldiers is patterned after
the uniforms of the armies of this coun-
try and France. The dress of Wash
ington is the same in color and style as
that worn by him at the battle of Tren-
ton. The construction of this curious
piece of mechanism has brought ont a
great deal of ingenuity, and, as can be
readily surmised, embodies great
amount of fine and skillful workman
ship. The inventor was formerly EN-

ployed at the Detroit Safe Works and
also at the Pullman Car Works; but OF
late, having fitted up shop in his own
house, he has spent many months in
perfecting this representation of the re-
surrection of Washington.

Ten Thousand Men in their shirt.tails.

A correspondent of the Chicago
Tribune relates the following incident
of Gen. Buell's march towards Shiloh:
Gen. William Nelson commanded the
Fourth Division of BueH's army. lie
had been naval officer, and his tyranny
and harshness caused his men to dis
like him at first. But, as the march
southwark took the troops into the en-
emy's country, the soldierly perceptions
and instincts of the old General, as well
as his stern sense of duty and pride in
his command, won for him respect, and
strange sort OF feeling that was al
most affection. a-
Nelson was a strict disciplinarian,
and always moved, or went into camp,
or left camp, as if in the presence Of
the enemy. He superintendent, early
every morning, the formation OF line OF
battle; was on his horse at the first
bugle blast, and rode down the line like
a hurricane, expecting every man,
officer as well as private, to be in his
place, and ready for duty. Men, under
| this training, became unconsciously
alert, and emphatic in action. 1t was a
standing joke that Nelson's division
could g tumble out quicker than any
| other. Nelson was particular and ex-
acting as to little things, which seemed
trifing until the men realized, in their
| first battle, that all had constituted a
part of their training for battle. The
realization that their commander had
seen with clearer vision than they, and
that he had compelled them to do what
was best, caused the men to turn with
rare trust to the Old Stormer, and to
become rather proud of his oddities and
his obtrusive individuality. He was a
thorough soldier, and was terribly in
earnest; and they knew it.
On the march southwark from Nash
vile, Buell's advance was delayed by
the destruction of the bridge across
Duck River. Nelson fretted under the
delay, protested against it, and finally
volunteered to put his division across
without bridge, if he were allowed the
advance. Permission was given for
him to cross, and he issued one of the
queerest military orders on record.
This was read to the troops in the morn
ing, and was in substance like this: The
men will march to the river, fix bay
onets, and stack arms. They will then
take off their pants, blouses, and &C
couterments, putting all in bundle.
which viii be placed on the bayonet
They will then take arms, and, with
bundles on the bayonets as ordered,
will wade the river in their shirts and
drawers. Officers will see that there is
no confusion, and that, on reaching the
farther bank, the men dress quickly and
march rapidly forward to restore the
circulation.
Imagine the looks of 5000 or 1O, O0(
men as this order was read to them OF
a cool, bright spring morning. They
marched down to the river; they un
dressed to their shirts; and, in view o
the entire population of Columbia, men
women and children, they, with cheers
and shouts, and jokes, and laughs
plunged into the cold water. The seen,
was ludicrous in the extreme; but il
not very many hours the entire divis
ion was marching southwark. 1t KEEP
the advance during the interval between
that date and the battle of Shiloh.
