were obtained at Strassburg in 1854 and
1855, and the experiments of Mr..

firmatory testimony. Whether there
may be other causes in operation in ad-
dition to deficiency of oxygen is still
doubtful. As a disinfectant the author

The clerk say before him an elegantly
attired gentleman, and. a. Beau request

bedroom: Beau lived like . fighting

the end OF which time the bill was sent.
The amount was something extrava-
giant.
Nothing abashed. however, he stroll

clerk. "Look here, sir; there must be
some mistake about this; when came
here l told you ! wanted the best you

The clerk waved angry and high words

THE writing-telegrsph which repro
duces the messages sent in almost per-
feet fac-simile Of the sender, has been
fitted up between Waterloo and Working,
England, q distance OF some 26 miles,
and according to the Echo has been
working very well. The instrument
itself is too recent an invention to have
yet reached even an approach to per-
lection, but tho defects made evident in
practical working have so far been rem
edied, and it is clear that useful inn
provement will shortly be available.
One great advantage is that the instru-
ment Is quite automatic at the receiving
end, and does not require the constant
of clerk. 1t writes its
messages on q roll of paper, and they
can be cut of and sent to destinations
as opportunity offers. That is an i'm
portant point, because it is well known
that the time wasted in calling and in
obtaining the attention of the receiver
far exceeds that required for the actual
sending Of the messages.

PoPE LEO rises early, and, after his
devotions. gives him elf up to study un-
til the hour set for audiences or assem-
bling Of the congregations over which
he presides. Although in delicate
health. he works hard, and makes his
household do the same Like the ma
jority Of Italians Of Southern Italy, the
Pope has only one regular repast : day,
at about O'Clock. He is an enemy to
the delicacies Of the tabls, and his fare
is much more meager than that of many
OF his curates. He eats boiled musli,
which takes the place Of soup, little
boiled or roasted neat, rarely vegeta-
bles, cheese made Of goats milk, and
drinks ordinary wine. Even on the day
of his election to the Papacy he sent
back the roast beef given to him, and
asked in it's place second plate Vt soup.
