HANGED ON A TRAPEzE.

An Athletes Terrible Fate-Dying While
.9ss II the Multitude Cheered.
Some thirty years ago an American
named Scott, after diving from the tall
est mastheads of ships into the waters
of the various rivers in England, under-
took to leap from a scaffold erected on
Waterloo bridge, Ionden, into the
Thames. Many thousands of lockers
on lined the bridge, wharves and banks
of the Thames, and SCOTS friends
passed the hat around for contributions
previous to his leap. 1t was a cold,
bleak and frosty day. Struggling pieces
of ice were seen floating under Water
loo bridge, and iostled the boat contain
ing SCOTS wife and friends, who were
in waiting to pick up the adventurous
diver from the water. fas !
After some delay, Scott appeared on
the platform or scaffold erected above
the bridge, and went through sort of
gymnastic performance, as was his GUS
tom before making leap, with various
ropes arranged something like q ira
peze. The ill-fated man, it was said,
had been drinking heavily of liquor
with his friends during the morning,
which, if true, was no doubt the cause
of his end. After numerous turns and
twists on the ropes, Scott got the rope
twisted around his neck, and literally
strangled himself to DEATH. The gaping
crowd raved and clapped their hands
in the vehernence of their delight,
thinking the hanging q part of the
performance. But when some time had
elapsed, and Scott's body had ceased
its vibrations, a thrill sof terror and
self-reproaeh took possession of those
nearest the scaffold, and scores of will
ing hands tore the rope and its CHASTITY
burden from its fastenings. 1t was too
late. Poor Scott, in his attempts to
amuse the multitude, had taken his own
life. dg8 - i
a team of fast horses carried the
body to the nearest hospital, and every
thing was done by medical skill to re-
suseitate it, but it was unsyaihng, for
the vital spark had fed. Lie his pred
ecessor, Sam Patch, Scott, truly won
derful diver and swimmer, had died in
performing foolhardy feat to amuse
the crowd. Much sympathy was shown
for the poor wife, who, while the
| plaudits of the multitude were ringing
in her ears, witnessed his terrible death
struggle, and was unable to save him
from his cruel fate. 1t ~

The Fame Of Thaeseray.

Thackeray is the only novelist of his
time, it may safely be said, whose popu-
larity is increasing. While his rivals
are suffering from the reaction that
always follows success, he has been
steadily gaining ground. His mood is
critical enough to suit the taste of the
time, and not critical enough to injure
hin novels as works of art, for it's OBJ
vious that, with all his hatred of shams,
,Thackeray's scorn of conventions did
not go deep. In spite of bus profess
sions, he was contented to accept avery
conventional code of morality, and he
turned away with Indifference from
many questions which a man thirty
years his junior could not let pass so
easily. At bottom he showed the
optimism of the Waterloo warriors
whose weaknesses he knew SO well how
to expose, and had he not done SO he
would have been a far less delightful
writer than he is. It is this mixture of
haf-hearted pessimism and real opium
ism that makes Thackeray SO popular
at present. He was, too, the earliest
prophet of the Queen Anne's men, and
of that reaction in favor of the
eighteenth century that is now SO
powerful, and secures for Esmondn
preference to which we venture to
think it is not entitled. Admitting
that Thackeray bestowed more labor
on Esmond," and showed more artistic
conscience in it than in any of his
other books, we cannot allow that, ,ad-
mirable as it is as piece of restora-
tion," it has the vitality of Vanity
Fair and The Newcomes." It is as
painter of his own times-a painter,
who had no rival in his own day-that
Thackeray viii be remembered, and
time will make of these wonderful
novels true historical romances. They
will live as vivid pictures Of English So
ciety In the first half of the nineteenth
century. Athea9ltn,. =

the other day-so relates the Batrde!:e

traveller and an eminent lady lecturer.
When the omnibus reached the hotel
the commercial missionary seized his
valise and started out. The lady made
grab after him, and he halted.

"No, sir" the lady replied, firmly /;
"it is mine. ] would know it among a

But the traveller persisted and the
lady insisted, and they came very near
quarreling. Presently one of the pas
sengers pointed to a twin valise in the
omnibus, and asked:

.And it isn't mine," said the lady;
she has mine, and I'll have it, or Pll

lady can't travel alone in this country
without being robbed of her property
in broad daylight"
Finally the traveller said he would
open the valise to prove his property.
The lady objected at first, saying she
did not want her yalise opened in the
presence of crowd of strangers. But
as there was no other means of settling
the dispute she at length consented.
The traveller sprung the lock, opened
the valise, and the curious crowd bent
forward to see. On the very top of
everything lay big fat flask, half full
of whisky, deck of cards, and one or

Palestine Pottery.

The Biblical descriptions of pottery
are singularly applicative to the present
process of ofamanufacture. Now, in this
nineteenth century, the potter sits at
his frame and turns the wheel with his
foot. Or, as we read in the Apocrypha
/. g So doth the potter, sitting at his work
and turning the wheel about with his
feet: he fashioneth the clay with his
arm" The potter had q heap of the
prepared clay near him, and q pot of
water by his side. Taking lump in
his hand, he placed it on the top of the
wheel, which revolves horizontally, and
smoothed it into q low cone, like the
upper end of sugar-loaf; then, thrust
ing his thumb into the top of it, he
opened hole down through the center,
and this he constantly widened by press
ing the edges of the revolving cone be-
tween his hands. As it enlarged and
became thinner, he gave it whatever
shape he pleased, with the utmost ease
and expedition.
It is evident, from numerous express
sions in the Bible, that the potter's yes-
sell was the synonym of utter fragility I;
and to say, as David does, that Mon's
King would dash his enemies in pieces
like q potter's vessel was to threaten
with ruinous and remediless destruc-
ton.
We, who are accustomed to strong
stoneware of considerable value, can
scarcely appreciate some of these Bib
lical references, but for Palestine they
are still as appropriate and forcible as
ever. Arab jars are SO thin and frail
that they are literally dashed to shivers
by the slightest stroke. Water jars are
often broken by merely putting them
down upon the floor; and the servant
frequently returns from the fountain
empty handed, having had all his jars
smashed to atoms by some irregular be-
havior of the onkey.-Harper's Maaa.

French Phrases.

The French have great tendency to
cherish sayings and phrases which
were uttered or are believed to have
been uttered by celebrated men. This
pronGness is due in part to a pardonable
kind of national vanity and in part to a
certain fitness in the French language
to adapt itself to brief, telling, epigram-
matte sentences and phrases. Multi
tudes of such examples are to be met
with, found on sober scrutiny to lack
verifcation; nevertheless they live and
seem likely to live in spite of criticism.
TIA France est assez niche pour payer
ga gloire is attributed to auizot, the
statesman, when he signed q treaty of
peace with a vanquished power without
asking for money indemnity. France
has truly shown herself in recent years
to be rich enough to pay for defeat if
not for glory; but the question is
whether Guizot uttered the words at
trib1ted to h1m-words which brought
upon him taunt for boastfulness by
the Opposition. 1t has been shown
that the phrase was put into his mouth
bya French journalist lin fact, down
right invention. :" La Garde meurt, ct
ne Sc rend pasl" said to have been ex-
claimed by Gen. Cambronne, has, in
like manner, been traced to Partisan
journalist; yet the French will doubt
less continue to believe that the Gen
eral, in relation to the condition of the
famous Imperial Guard at q critical
moment, heroically declared that the
Guard would die rather than sur
render.-ChGnlber Journal.

The Cucumber.

The cucumber is known to have been
cultivated for more than 5000 years. In
ancient Egypt it was extensively grown,
and is so at the present day. The pre-
else date when the plant was first Guilt
waited In England is not recorded. With
the melon, it was commonly en- u]tivated
in the reign of Edward III. but, IN
consequence of the wars of the Roses,
the cultivation of it was NEGLECTED and
at last entirely lost. The plant was in
troduced again at the latter pa IT OF the
reign of Henry VIII.
