The Fate Of Floating Wrecks.

If nature made no provision for the re-
moval of floating wrecks from the surface
or the ocean, dangers of navigation would
increase in fearful ratio, floating. hulls,
masts and spars would soon cover the sea.
To effect the removal of floating wood
three species of small marine animals play
an important part. Suppose we have o
ships spar drifting down upon the waves.
a small creature, known as the barnacle,
soen discovers it and attaches itself there-
to, and as these little creatures exist in inn
mense numbers tho timber speedily be-
comes covered with them. On examining
them at this stage we shall find that they
are attached to the timber by means of q
tube not unlike the windpipe Of chicken,
this tube being filled with o liquid, whilst
from the she'll protrudes q series of "a
hairy claws or tenacles. Each joint of the
latter 10 arched, and furnished with rows
of hair on its concave side, so much like
feathers that it js probably from their ap-
pearance that the fret idea Of the Darnacie
goose was derived. The effect of the bar

in midwater or in the bottom it
is attacked and riddled by two little
The ateredo nGeogis or e0IGnsite.s navixns,
works its way through hard planks, and
lines the tunnel as, it goes with . hard,
ivory-like shell. Thus, then, the barnacls
and wood-worms unite to work the destruc.
tion OF wreckags for, borne down by the
one, it is sspeedily riddled by the other,
until it falls TO pieces by the. waves
and becomes lost.

THE PRESIDENTS ADVICE TO BoYs,-
The current number of the Sasnday School
Times contains brief articles from the PEN
of President Hayes and the Governors Of
the thirteen original States to the young
upon the life and career of Washington.
President Hayes writes thus : The only
American whose birthday is generally
known and widely celebrated-the Father
of his Country-is remembered and hon.
ored throughout all the world for what he
did and what he was None of my young
friends are likely 10 have an opportunity
to- do such great deeds as were done by
Washington, but all of them will have an
opportunity to be like him in character.
T.ley can have bis love of country, his in
tegrity aud his firmness in doing right.
To have such character is better than
rank, wealth or fame. It is a possession
which cannot be taken away. As Webster
said so impressively of . sense Of duty,
|" 1t viii be with us through this life, ~ill
be with as at the close, and in that scene
of inconcei Fable solemnity which lies yet
further onward " ii will still be with US.

THE UNIVERSALISTS.

MeetinJ If the State Sunday Sc'aooI Con-
veution Yestey7ay--AnHnaI Meeting Of
the 1ssoctntion To-Day.
The annual meeting of the Universalist
State Sunday School association was held at
the Church Of the Redeemer yesterday. A
business session was held during the day, and
in the evening consideration was given to
the topic "Music and Sunday Schools" the OBJ
ject being to show that it an absolute
necessity for music to be very generally adopt
ed by and become a feature in the schools.
At o'clock Rev. J. H. Tuttle, called the
assembly to order and stated the object of the
meeting.
Professor Gutterson, of Owatona, was intro
dnced and given the charge Of the musical por-
ton of the evenings proceedings. The school
sang selection AID then Rev. B. F. Bowles, Of
Usage, Iowa. offered prayer.
PROF. GUTTERsON
| then proceeded to read his essay music in
Sunday schools. he commenced by referring
to the songs familiar in his youthful days
Then music for Sunday schools nearly all
written in minor chords, and in church the
same songs were snng at funerals and ~ the
Sunday school children. Now what change.
At present the songs are of joyous and
animated character, and those books that have
had the largest sale are those containing the
greater number of melodies of an animated
and joyous character, with words full of love.
He commended that although Sunday school
or church would not flourish with music alone,
still music was indispensable auxiliary
to the successful maintenance of both.
Here the professor chose of the Sunday
school selections and asked the school to sing
to illustrate his theory, ''Oh. like the Proud
Hero of Battle" Following this came the
song,
'Again we meet our teachers here
Each loving face we see."
"Obje"ts and Methods of the Sunday SCHOOL,
waa next considered, Mr.. T. Roberts leading off
in the discussion. He thought the Sunday
| school should be considered equal in Importance
to the church.
Rev. Geo. H. Deene of Rochester, Prof Nc
Gibeny, Rev. J. W. Edridge, of Austin, and
Rev. B. F. Bowles, Of Osage followed with
well-considered views. The meeting con-
cluded with singing by the McGibeny family.

WATER WORKS.

Tho Improvements on the Old Building
CO7,a,,scnccd--TO BE Made Fire-pr0ot.
The new committee on water works of the
city council has commenced at the right end of
the string. Warned by the great fire Of May
I'd (which with the wind in the opposite di-
rection would first have taken the pump house
and then might have swept the entire business
portion of the city, the committee, with the as
sis'ance of the city engineer, has agreed upon
plan for the improvement of the pump house
which will make it practically fre-proof.
In the first place the entire upper story is to
be removed and every stick of timber taken
out. The pumps will then be arched over with
stone, and there will be. on the street SIDE
only one opening. doorway, which will be
protected by double iron doors, and made per-
fectly secure against the most intense heat.
The room will be lighted by windows from the
| river side, where there is and can be no danger
from fire.

CITY COUNCIL.

Special Session Last Ni0ht--The Solons
Ncet and Protest liOni,ast the Height at
the Fort Smelling Eridge--The CIerk Tel
ryv0phs the Minnesota Delegation in Con-
yress.
special session of the city council was held
at the council chamber for the purpose of con-
sidering the proposed Fort Smelling bridge.
Aid. Woodward offered the following pream-
BILE and resolution:
WHEREAS, A bill is now pending before Con-
gress providing for the construction of bridge
over the Mississippi river at or near Fort Smell
ling in which bill the height Of said bridge is
fixed at ffty-eight feet above high water mark;
and
WHEREAS, The height of boats on the upper
Mississippi river from the water-line to the top
of the smoke stack is sixty-fvc (65) feet, and
such boats would be prevented from passing
during high water to the Falls of St. Anthony,
the natural head Of river navigation; and
WHEREAS, No reason exists in the nature Of
the banks of the river or connecting roads for
building the bridge as proposed in the bill,
but on the contrary, would be a fault in the
bridge, irrespective of obstruction to navigl-
ton; therefore.
Resolued. BY the city council of the city of
Minneapolis, that the Senators and Representa-
tives in Congress from the State of Mime ota
be requested to procure such amendments to
the bill as shall provide that the bridge when
constructed shall have clear span over the
main channel at least two hundred (2G0) feet
wide, and that the height of the bridge in the
clear shall be at least seventy (7O) feet above
high water mark
The president called Aid. Andrews to the
chair, and proceeded to explain the reasons
why the meeting was called. He stated that
building the bridge as provided in the proposed
bill, would necessitate cut of several feet on
either shore of the river, and if the effort was
made to put blockade on navigation, the bill
could not DO more cleverly drawn.
The question was then put upon the adoption
Of the resolution, and it was adopted unani-
mously.
The city clerk was instructed to telegraph the
action of the council to the Minnesota delega-
ton in Congress. and the council djourned.
