Childhood Of BENJAMIN West.


Benjamin West, the son Of John West
and Sarah Pearson, was born in Spring
I field, in the State of Pennsylvania, Oc-
tOber 10, 1733. His mother, it seems,
had gone to hear one Edward PeckOver
preach about the sinfulness of the Old
World and the spOtlessness of the New;
terrified and overcome by the earnest
eloqUence Of the enthusiast, she shriek-
ed aloud, was carried home, and in the
midst ofagitatiOn and terror, was safely
delivered Of the future president Of the
Royal Academy.
When the preacher was told Of this,
ne rejoiced. Mote that child, f" said he,
''for he has come into the world in a re-
markable way, and viii assuredIy prove
a wonderful man." The child pros
pered, and when seven years old began
to fulfill the predictions of the preacher.
Little West was one day set to rock
the cradle of his sisters child, and was
so struck with the beauty Of the slum-
bering babe, that he drew its featuree in
red and black ink. 81 declare" cried
his astonished sister, she has made a
likeness Of little babYl'' He was next
noticed by a party Of wild indians, who,
pleased with the sketches which Benja-
min had made Of birds and flowers,
taught him how to prepare the red and
yellow cOlOrs with which they stained
their weapons; to these his mother add
ed indigo, and thus he obtained the
three primary cOlOTs.
1t is also related, that Vests artistic
career was commenced through the
present of a box of colOrs, which was
made to him, when abOutnine years old,
by Pennsylvania merchant, whose at
tentiOn was attracted by some Of the
boys pen-and-ink sketches.

Smoke Screens for TorDedoes.

History is repeating itself again. In
his yeracious chronicle Of New York
Mr.. Diedrich Knickerbocker says that
when an English ship sailed into the
harbOr, and arrogantly demanded of
the primeyal Dutch the prompt sur
render of their possessions, that por-
ton of the phlegmatic population
which had settled in COmmunipaw
raised such cloud Of smoke from their
huge pipes that the piratical British
never discovered their existence in the
midst Of the dense fog. A similar plan
is now proposed for the protection Of
torpedo boats from the fire of an at
tackled ship. Hale's rockets are to be
provided with smoke balls and these
discharged from the launches. on igDit-
ing, envelope both the assaulting craft
and that assaulted in such a thick cloud
that it Will be practically impossible
for the latter to use her electric light
with any efficacy. or to sight her g.:ns
at her concealed antagoRists.-Seien-
tJic AMERICAN.

The New VOLUME OF THE LIVING
AaE.-The new year of Littell's Liv-
ing Age opened with the number for
the week ending January 5th.
Owing to therecent establishment
of important periodicals abroad
notably The Nineteenth Century in
England, and also to the simulta-
neous improvement Of others, a fresh
impetus has been given to foreign
periodical literature the ablest liv-
ing thinkers and writer's being enlist
ed in its service to an extent here
tofQre probably unequaled. The
Living Age presents with satisfact-
ory completeness what is most valu-
able in this literature. The publish
ers already announce for early mum
beTs Of the new year, articles by Lou
is Kossuth, Ex-Governor of Hunga-
ry (on the Turkish Question: Prot.
Max Muller, Prot. Goldwin Smith,
the Duke Of Argyll, Rt Hon. ". E.
Gladstone, (on Courses of Religious
Thought,) Richard A. Proctor, Prof.
Owen and others Studies in Science)
Frances Power Cobbe, Alfred Rus
sell Wallace, Prof ]. @. Blackie, Ed
ward A. Freeman, Matthew Arnold,
J. Leslie Stephen, John Ruskin, and
other eminent writer's.
In the department of fiction the
best foreign authors will be repre-
sented in serial and short stories.
The publication of a new story by
Vim. Black is to be begun in Janu-
ary, from advance sheets, and other
attractions will follow. The volume
of this standard weekly magazine for
the new year therefore promises to
surpass even the previous ones in in
terest, and in Importance to Ameri-
can readers.
The beginning of a new volume is
a favorable time for new subscrip-
tions, and the publishers still present
new subscribers for1878 thelast seven
numbers Of 1877, which contain the
first installment Of a new German Sc
rial, translated for The Living Age;
also a serial story by Miss Thackeray,
and the usual large amount of other
valuable matter. For ffty-two
numbers of sixty-four large pages
each Tor more than three thousand
pages yearly the subscription price
(S8) is low; while for $1,000 the
publishers offer to send any Of the
81 monthlies or wesklies with The
Living Age for a year, both postpaid.
Littell & Gay, Boston, are the pub
fishers.

"A youth refused to take pill. His
crafty mother thereupon secretly placed
the pill in a preserved pear and gave 1t
to him. Presently she asked: " Tom,
have you eaten the pear ?" He replied
Yes, mother all but the seed. "
-ChurchgOers in Mexico are subject
TO a new annoyance. Shllful thieves
have trained dogs to go quietly into
church and steal handkerchiefs from
ladies who are so deeply engrossed in
their devotions as not to notice the theft.
The young men of Maysville, an
Ohio village, being inclined toward
economy, bought a large quantity Of
cloth at wholesale price from q manu-
fRcturer, and had it made into clothing
for themselves. The uninfOrmed. visitor
is surprised by the sight of so many men
dressed exactly alike, and Is led to be-
ieve that he IS in some sOcialistic com
munity.
Before the drought Of 1864 Los An
geles county, Gal, was renowned for the
number of her cattle. They literally
covered O thousand hills, and it was
sometimes dangerous for anybody but Q
vaquerO to 90 ont of town any consider
able distance. During 1864 hundreds Of
thousands of hides of horned cattle were
sent out Of the county. These pelts
we're stripped from cattle which had died
of starvation, and they were called muir.
rain hides. The disappearance of these
cattle inaugurated the era of farming il
Los Angeles. Itwas a blessing In dis
guise, and most of the thousand prOduc
| tive farms of which the country nov
boasts owe their existence to tina
drought.

Senator Ben Hill, Democrat, of
Georgia, takes a view of the silver
question very similar to that express
ed by the Presidents Message. He
sets the moral aspect Of the question
aside entirely, and considers it sole
" from the standpoint Of self-inter-
est. He says: "It isn't a question
of legality, the payment Of the debt
in silver. No one questions the right
of the Government to make such pay
ment, but Just look at it Capital
lists stand ready to take our bonds
at 4 per cent. if we'll pay them in
gold, while, if we make them paya
Die in silver, they want 5 or 6 per
cent. Shall we save this difference
to the tax payer? I am not, nor is
the Democratic party, working for
the bond-holder, but for the people
and, if the bond holder is Collaterally
helped, he is to be congratulated, but
that is not our object. 1t is not 6
question of the Governments right
to pay in silver, it is question o
expendiency, and it is perfectly plai1
| to me that, if it costs US less t.
pay in gold than in silver, it is on
policy to pay in gold.

The EVIL OF BAD RoADs.-The
Kansas City Times complains Of the
mud blockade which has almost
stopped communication between that
city and the surrounding country,
and advocates the building Of turn
pixies and plank roads. 1t further
says, ''there is not a road leading
out of Kansas City, nor in fact a
street in the city, that would not
disgrace a Bulgarian village.
The whole West has suffered
greatly from the want Of good roads
during the present open winter, it
being almost impossible to haul pro
duce from the farms to the towns
and railroad stations.

To oretain or recover health, persons
should be relieved from anxiety con-
cerning disease. The mind has power
over the body-for a person to think he
has a disease will often produce that
disease. This. we see effected when the
mind is intensely concentrated upon the
disease Of another. We have seen a
person seasick, in anticipation Of a vOy-
age, before reaching the vessel. We
have known people to die of cancer in
the stomach, when they had no cancer
in the stomach or any other mortal dis
ease. A blindfolded man, slightly
pierced in the arm, has tainted and died
from believing he was bleeding to death.
Therefore persons should have their
minds diverted as much aspOssible from
themselves. 1t is by their faith that
men are saved, and it is by their faith
that they die. AS man thinketh, so IS
he. If he wills not to die, he can often
live in spite Of disease; and if he has lit
tle'or no attachment to life, he will slip
away as easily as a childwill fall asleep.
Men live by their minds as well as by
their bodies. Their bodies have no life
Of themselves they are only recepta-
cIes of Iife-tenements for their minds,
and the WIZ has much to do in cOrtinu-
ing the pE Eeal occupancy or giC 9g it
m
