chanics at Church,

The order of United American Me-
chanics attended religious services at
First Presbyterian Church, yesterday
morning. The pastor Rev. +. B. Du-
Val, preached very impressive ser
mon on the great mistake Of the times
that leaves religion out of business.
"Holincss shall be written upon the
very bells OF their horses" was his
text, the Rev. gentleman saying that
holiness should be written upon the
bells of all our enterprises. The mem
bers of the order were very much
pleased with the discourse and would
like to have the sermon for publication.

Buried Treasure Brought to Light.

There has been considerable excite
ment among the residents Of Rossyille,
Staten island, over the good fortune OF
Christopher Meister, German market
gardener, living on the Lake farm on
Lake island, near the sound shore. MIR.
Meister and his son, while digging
pit to bury turnips. in sandy spot
near the shore, struck large stone
three feet below the surface. Upon re-
moving the stone they discovered an
old-fashioned iron pot, OF about
peck's capacity, filed with what appear,
ed to be large. copper coins. They at
once removed the pot to the house, and
after cleaning few coins, which were
black with age, found them to be Span
isb silver dollars, some of them bearing
date 1743. The farm occupied BY Mr..
Meister was owned and occupied by the
Lake family before and during the
revolutionary war. It seems probable
that the treasure found by Mr.. Meister
was hidden where found by some OF the
Lake family during one of the raids
made by tories on the island. About
five wears ago a number @. gold and
silver coins were dug up in the garden
Of e1.Sberiff Negnant at Rossville, and
still later box full OF Spanish dubloons
was found on the farm of Mr.. Jrospean,
near the old Methodist Episcopal
church at Rossville. Mr.. Meister Was
hiehly elated over his good fortune, and
intended making further explorations,
believing that there is more buried
treasure in the vicinity.-NeaO York
Tribune.

Domestic Rights on the Rail.

When one of the trains from New
York reached this city the other day, an
old gentleman got up and started for
the rear end of the car. He had gone
but o few steps before the old lady who
bad been sitting with him rose up with
her hands full Of knitting work and fol-
lowed him down the aisle, her hands
extended. It was now noticed by the
passengers that the old lady had placed
her ball Of yarn in his pocket. When
he got up he turned around several times
before starting, and in 30 doing had
wound tho yarn around him 30 that the
old lady had no choice except to follow
him, drop her knitting or see her yarn
broken. She said not word, but q
passenger noticing what was going on
reached up and gently taking the un-
conscious old gentleman by the ear,
turned him around so he saw what he
wss doing, and the yarn was saved. By
this time the rest of the passengers were
roaring with laughter.-Neto Haven

A Look into Vesuvius.

Mrs. General Coils, who has been
in Europe for the last seven
and whose graphic letters have
been read with general interest, writing
from Italy, describes her visit to the
erupting crater of Vesuvius as follows:
"I pushed to the very mouth OF the
crater-yes, and looked down right into
the yawning abyss. Unlike Sir Charles
Gold dstream, did see something in it,
and heard it, too. Never shall I forget
those awful moments. From deep down
in the very heart of the mountain-how
far beneath me I cannot say-came
rumbline of distant thunder, followed
by more rapid and sharp decorating
sounds, like the explosion of firearms,
then q flash, a peal of thunder, and
presently it belched forth dense clouds
of smoke, ascending to an incredible
height, followed by discharge OF fiery
red powders, small stones, streams OF
molten lava and scarlet fame. The in.
terror of the crater seemed lined with
layers of pure sulphur OF a beautiful
yellow tint, made more intense by con-
trast with the immense body of black
lava by which I was surrounded. Deep
down into the crater seemed a sea OF
smoldering fire. It is extraordinary
how little we realize the danger OF an
adventure like this until it is over. Had
T learned before started Of the sad fate
which six years ago befell similar party
of explorers, I might have hesitated. 1t
was in 1872 that party OF twenty stu
dents from Naples assembled the noun
tain during an eruption. They stood
upon the brink of the crater, when sud
denly they were enveloped in cloud OF
sulphurous smoke and falling proiectiles.
Eight of them (some say sll) persisted,
and I believe only two Of their bodies
were ever recovered. The descent was
pleasant enough; in fact the sensation
was more agreeable than otherwise, fol
at every step our safety was assured by
the sinking of our feet into the deep
ashes and scorim. We arrived at Naples
at about 7 P. NJ, delighted with oul
most profitable work, and regrettine
only that our glories and adventures
were not shared by those absent ones
whose society would have made the Joy
J of the day absolutely complete"

Fires.

There is just now what writer's who
wish to be fine would call can cpl
demic of. confagrations. Reports of
tiros reach us from all parts of the coun-
Try. When the devouring element"
which is another approved phrase, de-
stroys city, the accounts are long and
impressive, and the statement OF dam.
ages, in figures, startling; yet the ag-
gregate of loss by isolated fires during
the lest few days is very large, footing,
in not large number cases taken COL
lectively, not less than 800, 900. Causes
in many OF these cases are not given;
but there is one cause, carelessnesa,
which, for want of better, may be
safely assigned. Now and then mention
is made OF defective fue, which is
carelessness in the concrete. It would
be very easy to preach about prudence
and caution, but the best warning is to
be found in the facts. The present hard
weather naturally leads to the employ.
ment Of higher temperature in
warming buildings of all kinds which
require to be warmed ; and the
result is greater danger and more
frequent burnings. Very few houses
get anything like a careful inspection at
the beginning of winter, 30 that fues
which are defective remain so, and heat
ing apparatus which is dangerous is not
made safe, as it might easily be at small
expense. There are men of such pru-
denee that their houses are not likely to
take fire from any fault OF their own;
but they are not many. The world will
20 on trusting to good luck until the
6nal conAagration; but protest against
such infatuation will not be in vain, If
here ,r there it shall save home or a
life.-Nep York Tribune.

When the .,ultan Dies.

"Scarcely has th, sultan drawn his
last BREATH" SAYS arecently published
work, "when his wives, his favorites,
in short all the wepsn whose power is
now at an end, are desired to be on
within four -and-tStnty hours. This
change of scene lisa veritable rout. 1t
may rather be compared to ship
wreck, when each passenger tries to lay
hold of some means Of safety, by which
she may float on the surface, and may
be prevented from sinking into the
deep where all are forgotten-that ls
to say, the depth Of the old seraglio.
Thitier are transferred those OF tie
kadines and faorites whom their
sterility had already condemned. Those
who are mothers alone are allotted the
protection of the imperial palace, Tor
reasons of state m&e it unadvisable that
they should be pmoved from the su-
perintendence of he heir OF the empire.
As to the other ladies', they must disap-
pear with their dawes and female at
tendants, although, perhaps, there may
be some among tie latter who, thanks
to fresh patronaae, find the means OF
lodging themselves in the little female
courts which are formed upon the old
ones. The old s.raglio, situated at the
extreme end of tie palace, is sad and
lugubrious building, very tomb, where
human beings are buried alive. I'M
agine medieval castle, with its lofty
crenelated walls and it's narrow windows,
the whole surrounded by thick and
dark mass of ancient Expresses one
may then perhaps form correct idea OF
the retreat which, as in a prison, con-
fines the fallen goddesses OF the harem.
Beyond the apartments destined to the
ladies, the old seraglio also contains a
number of buildings, among which may
be reckoned the imperial treasury, the
library, the mosque, which contains
such relics as the standard OF the
prophet, his beard, etc. There it is,
under the shadow OF these religious
souvenirs, that the poor abandoned
beauties of former Ottoman court
have to submit to the most severe Sc
clusion. Their goings in and out are
confined to what are strictly necessary,

" watched. Such are the suspicious
Of their new sovereign, which cause
them, doubtless, to regret the uncertain
affection of their defunct husband. Poor
souls, thus placed between the jealousy
of the dead and the living But reasons
of state cannot listen to the. dictates OF
the heart. Each sultan looks upon
himself as the responsible guardian Of
the honor of his predecessors, and in this
capacity he is bound to take care that the
widows of these princes(o whatever theil
title may be) should be subject to strict
and watchful supervision. This seclu'
sion, however, is not for life, and with
time the jailer shows himself more com
placent, and relaxs in some degree the
severity of his watch. The indulgence
is not shown until those who are thu
confined have passed the period O
temptation. It is when the amiabl'
kadine has reached her fiftieth year tha'
the reigning sultan places at her dis
posal one of the royal residences, ane
l4begs her to act as she pleases.

About Languagess

The following interesting extracts are
from q sermon preached by Rev.
Joseph Wild in Rrooklyn and published
in the New York Champion
A British poet has presented in poe
try the special features of several OF the
European languages, which we give
"Greek's harp We love to hear
Latin is trumpet clear
Spanish like an organ swells /;
italian rings its bridal bells
France, with many frolio mien,
Tunes her sprightly violin;
Loud the German rolls his drum
When Russia's clashing cymbals come;
But Britain's sors may we'll r.joice, -
For English is the human voice."
There are eight languages in the
bounds of Christian civilization that
may be accounted powerful, because
they are the tongues of vigorous peo-
pie ; they are ihe English, Russian,
German, French, Spanish, Italian, Por-
tuguese and scandinavian. q, But OF these
ali are indigenous, except the English,
so that Trey die il transplanted. Look
at this country and behold what ceme-
terry it is for languages. Once the French
had strong hold and promised to abide
here but it is now nearly gone, even
from the State of Louisiana and Cana
da, the last places Of retreat.
If We take note of the population ac-
cording to these several languages, We
shall see the prophetic future of the Eng
lish. It is spokenby about ninety mil
lions, Russian seveaty-five, German ffty-
six, French forty, Spanish thirty-eight,
italian twenty. nine, Portuguese four
teen and Scandinavian nine. Within the
control of the governments OF these
languages we find England to have
rule over 255, 5,090, 900 people, who
do not, as yG. speak English,
and we find thst the other seven
have only sevensy.fve millions out

and Scandinavian Il, ,308, $50. The sg-
gregate number OF square miles pos
sessed by these si1languages, is II, ,167,-
