and Pennsylvania avenue, The War and
Navy Department buildings, which were
built where the present imposing structure.
now nearly completed, stands, on the
corner of Seventeenth street, and Pennsy-
lvania avenue, were fired. The affairs
Of State and the postal business of the
young republic were conducted from offices
in private residences. They were not
harmed after firing the War and Navy De
partments. Gen. Ross marched his troops
to the cornor of Fifteenth and street and
drew them up before a building occupied
by the Bank of the Metropolis, now tine
National Metropolitan Bank. This Institu-
ton had loaned the Government $500, 900,
and the plate from which Its notes were
printed bore the words "a depository of
tine Government" Some of these notes
had fallen into the possession of the Brit
ish, and Gen. Ross believed it to be Gov
erDment bank. lie was preparedto fire 1t,
when citizen informed him that 1t was a
private institution, and had no connection
with the Government beyond making the
loan above referred to. Besides" said
this honest citizen, ss the story goes, '.li

try woman of yours.
''She must be poor irish widow to own
such valuable property in Washington"
said Gen. Ross savagely. but he did not
destroy the building.
The British remained in camp here about
forty eight hours, and then lett the city by
the same route they had entered it, No
demonstrations were made against them,
but they appeared to fear the return of the
American troops in large numbers and ami
mated with more courage than they had
shown before.

Inversion of GeIatine Negatives.

NJ. Izard's methoL consists in making
two layers of caouichosc dissolved in ben
Zine; when the first of these layers is dry
he interposes a film of ordinary collodion
containing about l-5 per cent of pyroxyline,
and covers it with the second layer of
caoutchouc, this latter being itself again
coated with a film of ordinary collodion.
When this is finished, strips of rhe peculiar
black paper called papier a. digIiiies are
glued all round the plate, 50 as TO form a
frame of thc required dimensions, and the
whole is then allowed to become thoroughly
dry. If now it be desired to at once trans
fer the negative, it Is only necessary to cut
through the layer along the outer edge of
the paper frame, and by raising one of the
corners Of the pellicle with the point of "a
knife the whole may be stripped off in one
continuous movement Provided care has
beel taken TO let the paper get perfectly
dry, the pelliols is sure TO come off without
its dimensions being in any way distorted.
IL will be seen that by nearly all similar
processes we are enabled to get films
which are SO thin that we Can, by invert-
ing, print on either side. We can, there
fore, in case of necessity, prepare for the
inversion while leaving the piIlicle adherent
10 the glass plate on which a negative
image has been taken; and when we wish
to inyert the negative, we have only TO cut
through the edges of the film as above
described, and to strip it Oft the plate

A Flight of sand Larks.

10 witness large flight-or, as it is
more correct to call it, ''fiing"-of Dun
lins on the wing Is sight rs curious as il
is interesting and beautiful. 1t is not when
they are flying with an apparently settled
they are flying about hither and thitheroyer
purpose from one place to another, but when
the banks IN fling" of from a few hun
dreds up 10 thousands in the flock. that their
wonderful lightness and activity ON the
wing are seen to such advantage as 10
strike even the most casual behOlder with
admiration. AT one moment the spectator
sees at distance d dense dark body moy-
ing rapidly along, which practised eye at
once sees Is d large flock of sand larks. Watch
them, and, to your amaZement, If they are
some distance off, the rapidly moving dark
cloud will suddenly almost, or sometimes en-
urely disappear. ThisIs caused by the whole
nock simultaneously turning their sides and
the edges only of their wings 20 the specta-
tor. Slowly then, aud looking at FIRST ike
shadow, the birds reappear, the flock
comes into full view as at first, and one is
wondering what the next change NAV be.
when instantaneOuslye every birdin the whole
hight, turning its white under surface tow
ard the spectator, almost daZzles him with
momentary flash of bright silvery white
ness; the appearance of the flock under
this aspect having been mos. aptly COM
pared to shower of new shillings. These
graceful and attractive evolutIons are often
repeated, each change being surprise; for.
owing to the constantly varying shape of
the hock, which one moment may be in
long-drawuout line, and perhaps the next
in round ball, no two of the movements
are exactly alike. The flock, if large, often
breaks up, but only shortly to reunite
again.

Life In a German schIoss.

The routine of life was quiet, even mon-
otonous, but to an American woman, fresh
Eom the ''fitful fever of American house
keeping, sweet and restful. The servants
were numerous and well trained. and per
formed their duties with little noise, and
at the right time and in the night manner
Ii must be said in passing that it took ten
men and women to do the work which half
that number would be required to perform
in an American household. Then, on the
other hand, it must be stated that tney
have not half our conveniences. The uten-
sils are primitive and cumbrous, and they
have much to fetch and carry but look
ing at results, one can only indulge in an
envious and useless sigh. The absence of
those pests of American housekeeping, the
weekly washing and ironing day, is one
reason why the German servants are able
to go about their work with so much more
regularity and thoroughness. In Germany
the family wash is done no oftener than
once month-in many places not oftener
than once in three or six montns-and then
is done by extra help hired for the occasion.
On Monday of the week devoted to this
"oAhs aNSOiuiuE W iuC
women came and began preparations. The
clothes, ETC., were sorted under the super
vision of the lady's-maid or housekeeper;
the wood laid ready for lighting under the
great boiler in the wash-house and every
tub, hogshead, etc, filled with water. The
water was pumped laboriously and brought
from some distance in cumhrous buckets.
The carriers wore upon their shoulders for
this purpose heavy wooden yokes, like OK
yokes, with a chain and hook at each end,
10 which the full buckets were attached.
The next morning at three o'clock they
were at work, busy as bees, and out chat
tering the swallows in the Ivy which grew
about the wash-house caves. Wash-boards
those instruments of destruction, were un-
known, all rubbing being done between
their horny knuckles. The ironing is done
in Germany by means of mangle, where
possible, and the clothes are beautifully
smooth and clean. The whole atmosphere
Of the place was peaceful and drowsy.
Pigeons cooed, swallows twittered, from
Morn until night. These, and the musical
baying of the hounds, the lowing of distant
cattle and the muffied rumble of wagons
upon the chaussee, were the sounds TO
which the ear became attuned. The occa-
sional shrek of locomotive was the only
of a world outside this Sleepy
Hollow of place

Prefers a Leg.

When at last the work of carving is
done, the delicate and difficult duty of
helping" begins. There can be no peace
of mind for the man who helps his family
and his occasional guests to any food, ex-
cept soup or oysters, both of which can be
accurately and fairly divided. In the case
of chicken he can never give satisfaction.
There is no rule IN this matter, beyond
that of giving the chickens legs to the boys
which can be followed. To ask people
what part Of the chicken they prefer is
simply madness. Either everybody who
tells the truth, and demand the b ST cut, in
which case, all but one will be exasperated
by failing to have their wish gratifed, OF
every body will reply, ANY part at
makes no diff r-nce,' or words to the same
mendacious and aggravatiug effect. OF
course, wIen the man who says sit makes
no difference" is helped to anything but
the breast, he becomes an enemy of the
c8-ver for life, and nothing can disabuse HIM
of the impression that he had been wan
tCnly insulted. Ii is far better to boldly
help people without making any pretenee
of consulting their wishes. They will then
regard the carver as a rude and careless
host; but they will acquit him of any in
tention to impress open insults upon his
guests Perhaps the most difficult person
TO deal with is the lady who says that ''she
prefers leg In the presence of this try
ing person the carver is almost certain to
make a mistake. The chances are that
she abhors chicken legs, and expresses for
the sake OF politeness an alleged preference
which she confidently expects to be dis
reg irded. To help such a one to q leg Is
10 abuse her confidence and earn her un-
dying hatred On the other hand, if she
is one of those rare women who really have
An abnormal fOndness for legs, she feels
herself outraged If legs are withheld from
her, and decides that the carver is a selfish
brute, who has not sufficient decency to re-
spect lady's wishes. We shall never
know how many happy homes have been
broken up, how many friends estranged,
and how much misoelianeous misery has
been suffered merely because the duty of
carving has been placed in the hands of
Islhers Of American families.

"I Guess III go Afoot."

Half an hour before the departure of lake
steamer from her wharf at Detroit the cap
tain was approached by stranger who had
been inspecting the boat from the dock for
the last ten minutes, Introducing himself
as would be passenger, he asked:
captain, is this boat provided with life
preservers?"
.'She is.
''Are they all right?"
They are"
''Can your crew launch a life boat?"
''They can."
'.ls your life raft all right"

'1t is"
"Will your engineer stand to his post

ted man in the presence OF dangerl'

''Do you know exactly what you would

'.No, SIR"

''She is

The stranger heaved a deep sigh and
was walking away when the captain asked
if his baggage was aboard.
"No, and guess I'll go afoot, was the
reply. Every boat which has burned up
Or gone down for the last five years had
in the neatest kind of order, and
III either look for craft making six feet
Of water an hour or run the risk of going

Many curious stories are told of the infiu-
ence exercised by the Afghan chiefs over
their followers, among the most striking of
which is the following: A young English
