Glass TyDCS.

An English puper says: The useful
ness of toughened glass bids fair to be
greater and more serious than was first
supposed. Some experiments are re-
ported to have been made in France with
view to showing whether this sub
stance can be pressed into the printers
service and substituted for the metal
composition of which types are made.
The metal does not at first sight strike
the observer as the best that could be
found. 1t is bright enough when the
letters first come from the foundry, and
before they have seen any service; but
few days wear gives them a very much
more dipgy appearance, and before they
are finally returned to the melting pot
they have degenerated into a very
squalid form, looking dirty in their
bodies as well as battered in their faces.
The.id now is to discard these long
proved but unattractive servants and fill
their places with glittering types OF glass.
The advantages in point of cleanliness
alone would, it is alleged, be not insig-
nifcant. But the Patrie points out that
there are other and more solid improve
IleutS 1uNOlNtu III blIc uCW oJ oOOhs AhS
toughened glass, which is not to be
made in quite the same way as that used
for tumblers and wine glasses, and need
not, of course, be quite so transparent,
is naturally much harder than the old
metal, and can hardly be crushed out Of
shape by those little accidents which SO
shorten the life and spoil the beauty Of
the only type we now employ. 1t is also
capable of being cast into more delicate
shapes, SO that the difference, for in
stance, between the thin and the thick
strokes can be more clearly defined.
Finally, it is now found that the new
material can be cast in exactly the same
moulds as the old, and that therefore
there need be no expense incurred in al
tering the machines and implements
used in the manufacture of type. If the
Patrie has been we'll informed the ex-
periments have been completely success
ful, and the adaptability of toughened
glass to printing aud to numerous other
purposes is likely ere long to be fully
established.

Buffalo Bulls Protecting a Cali.

The buffalo COW seems to have little
maternal instinct, differing in this re-
spect greatly from the domestic COW.
When frightened, a buffalo COW will
abandon her calf, and running away
leave it to be protected by the bulls, who,
to their honor, seldom forsake their
charge. An army surgeon once saw an
admirable illustration of this maternal
care.
One evening, as he was returning
from a days hunt, his attention was at
tracted by the curious behavior of six or
eight buffaloes. Approaching them he
saw that they were all bulls. They
stood in close circle with their head
downward. At some twelve or fifteen
PAGES distant sat, in an eccentric circle,
a dozen large gray wolves, licking their
chops, as if impatiently waiting for
supper.
In few minutes the circle of bulls
broke up, but keeping in compact
body, walked off toward the main herd
half mile off. To his amazement, the
doctor saw in the centre of the guardian
bulls little feeble calf, newly-born, and
hardly able to walk. After going a hun
dred PAGES, the calf lay down, and the
bulls again formed protecting circle
about it. The wolves, who had followed
on each side, sat down and licked then
chops.
The doctor did not wait to see the
end, it being late and the fort distant
but he had no doubt the bulls brought
the calf, abandoned by its mother, safely
to the herd.

T0YS for EnrOne.

The New York tribune says In
former years large portion Of the toys
used in this country came from Europe.
Now.the trade is the other way, and the
Old World is buying largely from
America not only the peculiarly Ameri-
can inventions, but also the toys which
formerly were made abroad. The export
trade in toys, which amounted last year
to over $1,000,000, began five or six
years ago. Then E. G. Williams, the
agent of large exporting firm, says a
number of bankers sent some American
made toys to Cuba and South America
The trade then extended to London,
and thence to Hamburg and Paris. Now
nearly every foreign steamer carries
large quantities.
The principal articles of export are the
mechanical or clock-work" and the
steam toys, but there are also large ship
ments of tin and wooden toys, most of
which class were formerly imported from
England or Germany. The reason of
this change is that wood is much cheap
er in America than Europe, and ma
chimes work faster than hands. The
latter reason applies to the increased
sale of mechanical toys. Very few are
now imported, and only the fnersFrench
and Austrian work for show pieces in
windows. American ingenuity has also
multiplied the varieties of mechanical
toys, and the American manufacturers
of the clock mechanisms have met all
overtures for the purchase of the de.
tached works, by European dealers, by
demanding prices which are practically
prohibitory. The American steam toys,
such as miniature steamboats, that run
in water, engines and boilers, and loco
motives with small trains of cars, are in
much demand by European buyers The
wooden toys are generally of a practical
sort. They excel the European products
in cheapness, style and finish. Hobby
horses, velocipedes, miniature tubs, pals
wringers and clothes-horses, are among
these. Many of these are made at the
West and sent East to be finished. In

An African Conveyance.

The British consul at Loanda (Ango-
lia) gives an account, in his report this
year, of the maxilla carriers of that city,
or "the cabmen. as he calls them, de-
string, probably, to cherish any recol-
lection of home. They differ from the
cabmen, however, in being at no expense
for horses. The maxilla is a sort of
cane-bottomed sofa without legs, is sus-
pended from bamboo pole, has gayly
painted waterproof top, and is covered
in with curtains of fancy print to keep
out dust and ward off the suns rays.
Two men carry the pole on their shoul-
ders, and this is this only means of con-
veyance about the town. The tariff
ought to be satisfactory to the hirer.
IF engaged by the hour each carrier has
sum not quite equal to three pence.
Residents generally engage the carriers
by the month at nine shillings, with
three pence day ration money. The
fare is established by law, and there are
no squabblings

The Last Picture of Lincoln.

Mr.. Noah Brooks, an intimate friend
of Lincoln, writes as follows in the
Midwinter" Scribner about the last
photograph of the President, drawing
of which by Wyatt Eaton has been en-
graved by Cole as a frontispiece to the
same number of the magazine:
On Saturday night, the President
asked me if 1 had any objection to ac-
companying him to photographers on
Sunday. He said that it was impossible
for him to go on any other day, and he
would like to have me see him "set. !"
Next day, we went together, and as he
was leaving the house he stopped and
said, "Hold on, 1 have forgotten Ever
EFT p Stepping hastily back, he brought
with him folded paper, which he ex-
planned was printed copy of the oration
that Mr.. Everett was to deliver, in few
days, at Gettysburg. 1t occupied near
ly the whole of two pages of the Boston
Journal, and looked very formidable in.

house, Lincoln said: cit was very kind
in Mr.. Everett to send me this. I sup

thing that he wanted to say. He needn't
have been alarmed. Ny speech isn't

asked.
"Well, no." was the reply. at is
not exactly written. 1t is not finished,
anyway. 1 have written it over, two or
three times, and shall have to give it
another lick before I am satisfied. But
it is short, short, short. :"
I found, afterward, that the Gettys-
burg speech was actually written, and
rewritten a great many times. The
several draughts and interlineations of
that famous address, if in existence,
would be an invaluable memento of its
great author. Lincoln took the copy of
Everett's oration with him to the photo
grapher's, thinking that he might have
time to look it over while waiting for
the operator. But he chatted so con-
stantly, and asked so many questions
about the art of photography, that he
scarcely opened it. The folded paper
is seen lying on the table, near the
President, in the picture which was
made that day.
So far as I know, this was the last
time Lincoln ever sat for his photo
graph. Unfortunately, the negative
plate was broken after few impress
sions had been printed from it, and
though Lincoln promised to give the
photographer another sitting, he never
found time.

keys, his arms dropped listlessly at his
sides, his head sunk lower and lower on
his breast, and Madge felt a mist gath

drawing one of her hands over his
shoulder and talking with it against his
lips. "Let us not mar this moment of

"I don't think you will find me a

out, Madge, and let's compare our mu-

He led her through the open win
dow, holding back the swaying vines
for her to pass. There, arm and arm,
under the stars, let us leave them.
