Floating on the Air.

Much fuss has been made over Mr..
Homes pretensions to the power OF
floating on the air without any other
support, but the trick wxs known in
India the first half of the fourteenth
century. While Ibn. .Batuta was con-
versing one day with the Emperorin
the Imperial tent, two jogees came
and made obeisance to his Majesty,
who commanded them to show the
traveller from foreign parts something
he had never seen before. What he
then saw, or thought he saw, he thus
describes One OF them assumed the
form of a cube and arose from the
earth, and in this cube shape he occu.
pied place in the air over our head.
I was so much astenished and terri
fed at this that l tainted and fell to
the earth. The Emperor then or
dered me some medicine, which he
had with him, and upon taking this ]

it had been. His companion then
I took a sandal belonging to one Of
those who had come out with him,
and struck it upon the grornd as i
he had been angry. The sandal then
ascended, until it became opposite IN
situation with the cube. 1t then
struck it upon the neck, and the
cnbe descended gradually to tue
earth, and at last rested in the place
whereit it had left. The Emperor then
told me that the man who took the

The Young Mans First Hat.

From the Burlington Hawkeye. IS
The first time you wear a stove
pipe hat everybody looks at you.
Not, as You may vainly imagine, be-
cause you are the first young man
who ever wore a stove:pipe hat. but
because tits apparent even to the old
blind man who sits in the back pew,
without any cushion, away back un'
der the gallery where the poor have
the gospel preached to them, that it
is the tirst time you ever wore hat
OF that description. Your old father
elaps one on the back of his head,
puts his hands il his pockets, holds
up his head, aud walks off down the
street in a gale. of wind and never
thinks OF his hat. But you, son, you
pull yours on at the most graceful
angle it can be posed, and you go
teetering along, both hands ready to
fly at the hat at the slightest provo
cation of the ghostliest phantom of a
puff of wind. You don't look COM
Portable, son. Your hat is always
trying to come off; you bump it
against everything you pass; you rub
it the wrong way vixen you try to
brush the dust off it; when yoa carry
it in your hand s.up the aisle every
body smiles, because you first hold it
by the brim and let the crown tip
gracefully over your arm, and by the
time you have hit three or four wor.
shippers in the head with it, you
change and turn it under your arm
and try to carry it that way without
touching it, and the first thing you
do in that pose you put woman's
eye out with your elbow. Then,
when you sit down you put the hat
on the floor, setting it on the brim--
fatal mistake. And then, before
the sermon Is halt through, yoH put
your feet on it three times. Bat never
mind; you hayeto learn some time.
Only don't imagine that people never
saw anything Of the kind before, be.
cause they have.

Frightening Children.

From the New York Freeman's Journal
Nothing can be worse for child
than to be frightened. The effect Of
the scare is slow to recover from; it
remains sometimes until maturity, as
is shown by many instances of NOR
bid sensitiyeness and excessive ner-
vousness. Not unfrequently, fear is
employed as means of discipline.
Children are conskplled by being
naa lie,sauiA eas.is
bic Will happen to them and punished
by Being shut up in dark rooms, or
by being put in places they stand in
dread Of No one, without vivid
memory Of his own childhood, can
comprehend how entirely cruel such
things are. We have often heard
grown persons tell of the suffering
they have endured, as schildren, under
like circumstances, and recount the
injury which they are
sure they then received. No parent,
no nurse, capable of alarming the
young, is fitted tor her position.
Children, as near as possible, should
be trained not to know the sense Of
tear, which, above everything else, is
to be feared in their education, early
and late. ss

TWO LOVERS.

Eliza Jane two lovers bad
The one was Nature. t'Other Art
They were so very near alike,
She couldn't tell the two apart.
AT last. TO test their qualities
And give to one the vantage place
She proffered each photograph
OF her ethereal, tempting face.
Art snatched the pretty paper prize
And pressed it to his heart, and then
He put it to his marble lips
And kissed it DER and DER again.
But Nature hurled the painted gift
Aside with naughty calm disdain,
And graphing her with strong embrace.
He kissed that plump Eliza Jane.

Let critics hymn your praise sublime,
And I'll take Nature every time"

ALARM In ALASKA.
GREAT EXCITEMENT At SlTKA.
The Indian, Threaten 10 Annihilate the
White Citizens-Americans Fleeing
from Danger StOrekeepers
Preparing to emigrate.

SAN FRANCIsCo, February ia
Victoria dispatch says that the steam
ship California, which left Sitka, Feb
ruary 10th, aud arrived at Esquimault
February l4th, reported that there was
much excitement in Sitka when she
left. Tho Indians have threatened the
annihilation of the whites and the citi-
zens are armed waiting to be attacked.
The two Indians who murdered James
Brown confessed their guilt and were
surrendered to the collector and are
on board the California Ell route to
Portland, to be turned over TO the |.
:. District Attorney, to await the action
OF the authorities at Washington. Three
families came down on the steamer
fleeing from danger. The store
keepers are preparing to emigrate
by the next steamer. Father
Metropolisky and his congregation,
in conjunction with the American citi-
zens of Sitka, have petitiOned the COM
mnder OF Her Majesty's navy Of war,
new lying at Esquimault, to come TO
their immediate aid, fearful that they
cannot allay the disturbances before the
United States Government can send as-
sstance. Ii is rumOred that Cutter d
Co.'S tannery, about four miles from
Sitka, is sacked and burned. No reli-
ance is placed on the rumOr, because the
company have Indians in their employ
who seem to be peaceably inclined. The
collector of Alaska has telcgraphed to
Secretary Sherman for aid. The In
dians threaten 90 kill two white men
in retaliation fortwo prisoners. Thenight
before the steamer arrived the alarh was
given through some nervOusperson, ere
ating the greatest CONSERVATION. People
barred their doors and stood ready Tor
action. The priests house was crowded
with terror StaiCkcn women and child
rcn, who could not he induced To re-
turn To their homes till daylight. The
steamers arrival created more conf
dcncc, but fear began To gain ground at
her departure. The whites are well or
ganizcd, and in case they cannot con-
ciliate the Indians will make despcr-
ate fight. James Brown was murdered
i'm his cabin while asleep. lie was
hacked Ia pieces with axes and his re-
mains thrown into the ocean. Plundcr
was the incentive. Much OF hisproperty
was found in the possession of the muir
