The HUMAN MANuFAcToRY.-A man
may eat and drink heartily all day, says IN
unknown writer, and sit and lounge abons,
doing nothing. in one sense Of the word !;
but his body must keep hard at work all the
time, or it will die Suppose the stomach re-
fused to work within ten minutes after a
hearty dinner the man would die in conval-
sions in few hours or cholera or craml-
collie would rack and wreck him. Supposing
the pores of the skin-meaning thereby the
glandular apparatus with which they are con,
nected- should 60 Oh "strike," he would
in an hour be burning up with fever oppres.
sion would weigh upon the system, and soon
become insupportable. Suppose the liver be-
come mulish, the appetite would be annihila'
ted, food would be loathed, torturing pains
would invade the small of the back, and The
head would ache to bursting. Suppose the
kidneys shut.up shop, and danger most im'ni-
nent, suferings unbearable, and death mpre
certain, would be the speedy and inevitable
result. If the little workshops of the eye
should close, in an hour he would not shut
nor open them without physical force, and in
another hour he would be blind or if those
of the tongue should close, it would become
dry as bone and stiff as steel. e..

"Look here, the sun isn't the spectacle
it's us-stacked up here on the top of this
gallows, in these idiotic blankets, and two
hundred and fifty we'll dressed men and wo'
men down there gawking up at US and not
caring straw whether the sun rises or sets,
so long as they've got such ridiculous spec
tacle as this to set down in their memoran-
dunn. books They seem to be laughing their
ribs loose, and there's one girl there that ap.
pears to be going all to pieces. l never saw
such a man as you before. I think you are
the very last possibility in the way of an ass.
."'Wbat have I done?' answered, with
heat.
"'What have you done3 You've got up
at halfpast seven o'clock in the evening to
see the sun rise, that's what you have done:
"'And have you done any better, I'd like
to know? always used to get up with the
lark, till I came under the petrifying inau'
ence of your turgid intellect
"You used to get up with the lark, 0, no
doubt; you'll get up with the hangmen one
of these DAYS. But you ought to be ashamed
to be jawing here like this, in red blanket,
on forty-foot scaAold on the top of the Alps,
and no end of people down here to boot; this
isn't any place for an exhibition of temper
"And so the customary quarrel went on.
When the sun was fairly down, we slipped
back to the hotel in the charitable cleaning,
and went to bed again. We had encountered
the horn-bower on the way, and he tried to
collect compensation, not only for announcing
the sunset, which we did see, but for the sun
rise, which we had totally missed, but we said
no, we only took our solar rations on the
European plan-pay for what you get:' He
promised to make US hear his horn in the
morning. if we were alive"

LEARN ABOUT THE PULsE.-Every incl
ligent person should know how to ascertain
the state Of the pulse in health !; then, by
comparing it with what it is when he is
ailing, he may have some idea Of the urgency
of his case. Parents should know the health
pulse of each child-as now and then pernon
is born with peculiarly slow or fast pulse,
and the very case in hand may be Of that
popularity. An infants pulse is 140; child
Of 7, about 80; and from 20 to 60 years, is
70 beats a minute, declining to 60 at four
score. A healthful grown persons pulse beats
70 times minute there may be good health
down to 60; but if the pulse always exceads
TO- there is disease the machine is working
itself out; there is q fever or inflammation
somewhere, and the body is feeding on itself; !;
as in consumption, when the pulse is quick,
that is over 70, gradually increasing, with
decreased chances Of cure, until it reaches
10 to 120, when death comes before many
days. When the pulse is over 70 for months,
and there is slight cough, the lungs are
affected. There are, however, peculiar con-
stitutions in which the pulse may be over
so in health.

THE WASHINGTONS.

The immediate ancestry of George Wash
ington must be sought at Sulgrave, North
amptonshire. At Sulgrave was monastery
and it was dissolved by Henry VIII. at the
same time as the other religious houses. A
large part of its estates were granted to the
Washington family; and in the old church
of Sulgrave is plate of brass with Lawrence
Washington and his wife incased on it, and
also his eight SONS and nine daughters. Sui
grave is in a pleasant, rural part Of England
not far from Banbury and Whittlebury For.

probably at one time the priors' dwelling

is hoped that this picturesque relic may, in
some future time, form a part OF the present

Castle, was the great grandson of the lord OF
the manor of Sulgrave. South Cave Castle

York and Hull. Brough is the nearest sta

here-and-there long opening, and some
comfortable dwellings, set in dark evergreens.
A road that turns to the right leads us to
Hull and the village of Rowley, which is

tants left Rowley York, with their vicar, and
crossed the ocean to their new home. South
Cave Castle is truly delightful residence,
and is we'll seen from the road. It has, of
course, undergone some modelling since the
Washingtons resided there; but the dimen-
sions are the same, and the pleasant park is
circumscribed by the same boundaries. Plate
glass windows have superseded the old-fash:

doors have been placed in frames instead of
the heavy ones studded with nail l.heads; but

same walls and elms and doubtless the rocks
