a LEGAL FKEs,

A good story is told of Brougham in his
youth. He was junior counsel with cele-
brated lawyer of the day in case that
nearly concerned the royal family. The
leader oppressed with the responsibilities of
his charge, and weary with his exertions,
had been addressing the court in close
argument for several hours, when it was
apparent to every one that his mind had
suddenly ceased to act in unison with his
speech. Mr.. - became furried, STAN
merred, and began to plunge Brougham
saw what had happened, and instantly rose,
interrupted his chief, and addressed the
court. Wearing upon his face an express
sion of great suffering, he assured their
lordships of his deep regret at having to
trouble them at such time with matter
personal to himself, but he was nearly mad
with earache by reason of the draught
from a door at his right; might it be
closed? The Bench condoled with
Brougham on his suffering, and at once
ordered measures to be taken to stop the
draught. "The door leading into the
other court" was shut, but still the draught
came; windows were examined, and sand
bags were placed against the openings in
them till the nuisance was abated-ti1l q
good quarter of an hour had been con-
sumed, and Mr.. Brougbams leader had
had time to recover himself. 1t is,
perhaps, needless to add that the intelligent
junior "had not an ache or pain in all
his great body" 1t was only legal
stratagem.

SCIENTIFIC.

VISION under water is attended with
some peculiar consequences-the result Of
what is termed 'internar' reflection. An
eye placed uniier perfectly still water, as,
for instance, the eye of adiver, will see
external objects only through circular
aperture, as it were, of go 55 min. 20 sec.
in diameter over head. But all objects
down to the horizon will be visible in this
space-those near the horizon being much
distorted and contracted in dimensions,
especially in height Beyond the limits
of this circle will be seen the bottom of the
water, and all subaqueous objects reflected
aud as vividly depicted as by direct
vision; and, in addition, the circular space
above mentioned will appear surrounded
with rainbow of faint but delicate colors.
In the eyes of fishes, the humors being
nearly of the refractve density of the
medium in which they live, the action of
bringing the rays to focus ON the retina
is almost entirely performed by the crystal
line lens, which is nearly spherical, and
of small radius in comparison with the
whole diameter of the eye.

IT has been found that woollen fabrics
dyed in aniline colors, particularly magenta,
have faded or changed color when wrapped
in the ordinary way in white paper. In
vestigation has shown that white paper
which has been prepared from rags, straw,
or other materials that have been bleached
with chlorine, retains portion of the
chlorine for some time after it is made.
Aniline colors ere susceptible to the in
Huence of chlorine, snd change their
shade when in contact with it, and even
the exceedingly small quantity of chlorine
in sheet of wrapping paper is found to
be sufficient to change the shade of dyed
fabrics so that the colors are disfgured and
spoiled, in some cases, of course, involv-
ing serious loss. Recent experiments,
however, show that the difficulty in ques-
ton may be avoided by the use of blue
wrapping papers for such goods, as these
papers are colored, with ultramarine, which
tends to neutarlize the effects of the
| chlorine.

face and finally dying of general debility
For miles above and below Hartford the
banks and eddies of the. river are lined
with dead fish. Old fishermen never saw
anything like it before. At first it was
thought to be the result of a piscatorial
warfare carried on by the black bass
against their weaker brethren. But the
symptoms don't sustain the theory. The
probable explanation of the phenomenon
is that the recent heavy rains have
washed the valley far ms where great
amount of paris-green and other poison
Gus agents have been used, and that
sufficient poison has gone to the rivers to
kill the fish. Millions of poisoned bugs
would also be washed into the streams
and seized as food.
Sportsmen also report great mortality
amongst the game Birds such as quail
and partridge and woodcock, which have
been carefully protected by law for years
past, and they attribute it to the same
cause.-The use of poisons to exterminate
noxious insects. The New England
farmers are now debating whether it isn't
better to surrender the potato crop to the
Colorado beetle for a few years than to
loose all their carefully preserved fish and
game. With the loss of forage for a year
or two the bug might permanently seek
weed pastures.

ENcRUsTED bronze is mentioned as arecent
Partisan novelty in bronze or copper ware,
with gold and silver ornamentation. 10
fix the latter on articles of bronze or cop
per, they are first painted in water colors,
the principal ingredient of which is white
lead. When several articles are to receive
the same drawing, it may be printed in the
same manner as porcelain painting. The
places which remain unpainted are var
nished. The object is then laid in dilute
nitric acid, which dissolves the color and
bites the metal on the painted parts to the
required depths; after washing the object,
it is placed in silver or gold bath, where
the free surfaces are electrotyped in silver
or gold; the varnish is then moved, and
the whole surface is polished so that the
gilded and silvered parts are not unduly
prominent. After this comes the bronzlng
fine effect, it is said, being produced
with black bronze by sulphuret of copper
in the spaces between the gold and
silver.

THE art of modelling in wax, now SO
extensively pursued in the production of
fine or choice objects, is declared to be at

contains white lead; the green, copper; the

A SWEDISH inventor has brought for
ward an improved contrivance-claimed to
be both simple and efficient-for ascertain
ing the quantity and quality of distilled
liquids, so as to facilitate the work of in
spection, and reduce the number of in
spectors The popularity of this device
consists in the combination with the still,
or receiver, of large measuring tank and
smaller testing reservoir constructed and
connected togeAer by pipes and valve
mechanism, that the filling of the measur-
ing tank from the receiver will set apart a
small quantity for testing the grade Or
quality of the liquid; this small quantity,
on the measuring tank being emptied, is
discharged into the testing reservoir
register connected with the valve mechan.
ism at the same time indicating the mum.
Der of times the measuring tank has been
filed and emptied, and thereby the whole
quantity of liquid which has been dis

A GIRL WHO Could Throw STONES
A Nevada man writes to the Virginia City
Territorial Enterprise as follows: "The
writer once knew a family in which there
were SIX bouncing girls without a break.
Being very poor the father had taken the
eldest to assist him in out-of-door work. To
this she seemed to take naturally, and
eventually became an adept in moving,
reaping, tree-felling and even snowshoeing,
one of the most difficult of things to acquire
command Of Although fully equal to the
boys of her age in doing the above work,
there was only one thing in which she
showed decided superiority, and that was
in stone-throwing The precision and
velocity with which she could hurl one of
those missiles was to me, who was year or
two her junior, a source of never-ending
wonder and admiration. As proof of her
skill she brought home three partridges,
(ruffed grouse,) killed in one day with
stones"

IT is a frequent practice i'll the painting
of iron work, to previously give it coat of
boiled linseed oil, applied in hot condi-
ton, this forming a kind of varnish and
thus serving as an excellent preparation
for the subsequent coats of paint. Opinions
differ, however, as to when the coat of oil
should be applied Some engineers speci-
fy that the iron be brushed over or dipped
in oil while it is hot from the rolls-the
efficacy of this method being, however,
doubtful, in view of the fact that the iron,
is undergoing its workshop manipulation,
is subject to rough treatment, and portions
of it's surface are sure to become exposed.
Others specify that the iron be brushed
over with hot oil just previous to the varl-
Gus portions being placed together-a
method which may be said to answer well
for ordinary work, as, by the time it has
gone through the processes of the work
shops, the blue shales have to some extent
been knocked off.
