Ancestry Of The Pen.

The earliest mode of writing was
on bricks, tiles, oyster shells, stones,
ivory, bark, and leaves of trees and
from the latter the term "lcayes of n
book" is probably derived. Copper
and brass plates were very early in
use, and a bill of fcotImont on cop
per was some years since discovered
in India, bearing date one hundred
years BIC.
Leather was also used, as well as
wooden tablets. Then the papyrus
came into vogue, and, about the
eighth century the papyrus was su-
porceded by parchment. Paper,
however, is of great antiquity, cspe-
cially among the Chinese; but the
first paper mill in England was
built in 1886 by a German, at Dart
ford in Kent, Nevertheless, it was
nearly a century and a half-namc-
ly in 1713-bcforo Thomas Watkins,
a stationcr brought papcr-making to
anything like perfection.
The first approach to a pen was
the stylus, a kind of iron bodkin; but
the Romans forbade its use on ac.
count of its frequent and even fatal
use in quarrcls, and then it twasmOde
Of bone. Subsequent reeds, pointed
and split, like pens of the present
day, were used.

Immense Oyster Shell Mounds in
Maine.

Professor D. w, Cunning writes to
the Bath (Mc) Times in regard to the
she'll heaps at Damariscota. He
rcckons that, within an area of one
rods in length and eighty
in width, there are piled 100000
bushels of oyster shells, And all that
refuse thrown down by human eat
ors; One dome.shapcd hillock is
nearly one hundred feet in height
He thinks the multitude of eaters
may not have been great, but that
the hillocks tell of time rather than
number Within the memory Of
man the oyster has not lived in this
river. Stone gouges, arrow heads,
bone needles, pottery and copper
knives are the only human relics
found among the shells. No gcologi-
cal event of any moment has occur
