somewhat of the origin Of the game.
In the latter part Of the sixteenth oen-

Kerr, was in the habit Of amusing hini-
self in wet weather. when there wore
no customers, with pushing about three
balls on the counter with measure,
This suggested i board with side pock,

William Kerr did make one board
whereby a game is played with three

young clergymen from ST, Paules;

men invented, Tic game Is now known
by the name Of 'bill-yard,' because

A stcrlTng Old Poem.

Who shall judge man from his manner,
Who shall know him by his dressf
Paupers may be fit for Princes,
Princes fit for nothing else.
Crumpled shirt and dirty Jacket
May beclothe the golden ore
OF the deepest thoughts and feelings
Satin vest can do no more.
There are streams Of crystal nectar
Ever flowing out of stone;
There are purple beds and golden,
Hidden, crushed and overthrown;
God, who counts by souls, not dresses,
Loves and prospers you and me,
While he values thrones the highest
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man, upraised above his fellows,
Oft forgets his fellows then;
Masters-rulers--lor remember
That your meanest kinds are men
Men OF labor, men of feeling,
Men of thought, and men of fame,
Claiming equal rights to sunshine
In mans ennobling name.
There are foam-embroidered oceans,
There are little wood-clad rills;
There are feeble inch-high saplings,
There are cedars on the hills.
God, who counts by souls, not stations,
Loves and prospers you and me;
For to Him all vague distinctions
Are as pebbles in the sea.
Toiling hands alone are builders
OF the nations wealth and fame
Titled laziness is pensioned,
Fed and fattened on the same;
BY the sweat Of others foreheads,
Living only to rejoice,
While the poor mans outraged freedom
Vainly lifts its feeble voice.
Truth and justice are eternal,
Born with lovellness and light
Secret wrongs shall never prosper
While there is q sunny right
God, whose worldwide voice is singing
Boundless love to you and me,
Links oppression, with its titles,
But as pebbles In the sea-

Strengthening Of the cotton filanents.
The saving Of one-half the usual waste
is because fresh, live cotton is used,
and half the usual machinery dispensed
with. The extra strength of the thread
aird skein is owing to the working of
the cotton fresh from the seed, tho oil
of which has keptit alive, light, elastic
and flexible, with all its alternating
qualities perfect; and the fact that it
has never been nap, cut nor tangled by
the gin, pressed, compressed, or per-

has it been injured BY the willower,

gin, press, and compress are sought to be
remedied. But these advantages, great
as they are, are not half that are claimed
for the "new process"
The ginning, baling, bagging and
ties are saved: the seed inure to the
manufacturers; no loss from falsely
packed cotton, no strikes among oper4
atives, for it is the poor mans factory,
and his daughters are the operatives.

Broderick was seated near him with eight
or nine personal friends, all armed to the
teeth and ready for any emergency.
When the journal was read, both Field
and Moore sprang to their feet and
shouted, "Mr. Speaker" That officer
recognized "the gentleman from Tuol-
umne, and Mr.. Field resumed his seat.
Moore read q written apology, full,
ample and satisfactory.
Brodcrick afterwards befriended Mr..
Field on many occasions. They were
standing at the bar Of hotel in San
Francisco in 1852, when Broderick saw a
man throw back his Spanish cloak, and
level revolver at his friend. In a
twinkling he flung himself between the
two men, and pushed Field out Of the
room. The prompt action undoubtedly
saved his life. ts

that is was dislocated only before the
experiments began. A current was ap.
piled to the muscles of the chest. and
another to the muscles just over the
diaphram, working them alternately.

force that air could be felt ~ it passed

physicians and several from New Haver
witnessed the experiments. The result
were most satisfactory, as it was not sx
