The Criminal court, Justice James, for o
part Of yesterday was engaged in hearing the
case Of Thomas G.. Cox, Water Registrar,
charged with assault and battery on John II.
Crane, ex.Water Registrar. The case came up
on appeal from the Police court, where tho de-
PENDANT was adjudged guilty and sentenced to
pay fine of $50. The evidence was somewhat
conflicting as to tho aggravation, but was un-
contradcted as to the fact that Mr.. Cox
struck the prosecuting witness twice or four
times with a cane. Mr.. Cox admitted tho
blows, which were given while he thought
Mr.. Crane was crowding upon him to strike
or cut him with n knife. lie could retreat.
but did not choose to do so. As to the Ian
guage used at the two meetings in Mr.. Dodge's
Office aud OH Pennsylvania avenue, both of the
principals disagreed, and the witnesses for the
defendant failed to confirm Mr.. Cox's state
mcnts that he made upon either occasion. The
jury returned a verdict of guilty, and sentence
was suspended until this morning.

How 1t Happened.

My first year of married life was
filed with hard work; for my husband
was farmer, and felt it my duty to
be his helpmate in reality. Therefore
scrubbed and toiled to keep my house
bright and pleasant and inviting when
Edward should come in at night.
Somehow did not feel at all satisfied
with our parlor. Although furnished
prettily, it had stiff look. The Sec
ond summer added pretty basket of
othonna in one window, coliseum ivy
in another, and allowed few pots of
geraniums and fuchsias to stand on the
sill of still another. BY and by, as my in
terest in beautiful pets increased, l add.
ed home made brackets here and there,
and allowed ivies and madeira vines to
cling lovingly around my dearest pic.
lures and statues, and procured stand
for the still increasing pets in the win
dow. Gone now was the stiff look OF the
room, AID my husband was so pleased
with the change that he fenced in bit
of ground for me to cultivate as gar
den, thinking We could not have too
many flowers. I turned into it my old
geraniums, etc., adding ANIMALS, and
now and then perennials and biennials,
until I felt that had all I knew how to
cultivate. But Sir Ned, who never
tired of seeing its beauties increase,
subscribed for floral magazine, and
from that time Imagination and flowers
ran riot. The few ANNALS spread out
into biennials, and biennials stood near
together to give place to perennials,
"just few, you know"-and all were
willing to crowd Just little closer to
make room for bulbs end tubers ; and
every time Ned went into that garden,
spomeas and honeysuckles, and the rest
of the climbers besought him to build
for them some support, until in one
corner and over the gate, arbors sprung
up, rustic enough for any rusticus, but
we'll covered with clinging tcndrils and
flowers Of many hue. Thus my little
garden became OVERLOOKING with flow
ers, and to us it is u veritable Garden
of Eden. l.- De-.

Remarkable Ice Phenomenon,

A phenomenon occurred last winter
in some parts OF France. We give =
few particulars regarding it, from let.
ters to the French Academy. Accord
ing to M. Godefroy. writing from a
place in Loiret. rain fell continually for
three successive days l22l, 23d, and
oath of january, and yet the thermom-
eter remained at two, three and even
four degrees below zero. When the
rain was tcanty, each drop was at once
solidified, even. on warm objects. It
took the form OF small, tlsttened and ir-
regular pastilles. The phenomenon was
especially remarkable on wooden stuffs.
The drops had evidently been brought
to state Of suffusion in their passage
through cold air, so that they solidi-
fed on meeting solid bodies. When
the rain was plentiful, on the other
hand, part OF it was at once changed to
ice, but part flowed down on solid
bodies, forming new layer Of ice and
producing stalactites. The ice. covered
branches of trees broke more and more
under the weight, and OH the evening
Of the second day the phenomenon
assumed frightful proportions. Crack
succeeded crack with growing rapidity.
In the morning the ground was strewed
with branches, whole trees lay pros
trate. and uprooted, and others were
split in two from top to base. The
majority were entirely cleared Of their
branches, and in some parts the forest
looked like one of masts. Such effects
will not excite surprise if figures like
the following be considered: A twig
from limb was weighed, and the bal
ance showed six gramlnes per decimeter
OF length; the same twig, deprived OF
ice. weighed only O.5 gramme. A leaf
of laurel carried carapace OF ice weigh
ing seventy grammes. All objects ex-
posed were alike covered with ice. NJ.
Picborrg, writing from Fontainebleau,
mentions that shrubs with persistent
leaves, such as rhododendrons and al
terms, became one block of ice, through
which leaves and branches could be
distinguished pretty we'll. Fir trees
and the like had the appearance of a
huge pyramid Of ice, each group of
branches being weighed down on the
one below, and the lowest on the
ground. These trees and evergreen
shrubs broke up mostly during the thaw,
which commenced on the 25th. The
fracturing of the leahess trees, on the
other hand, occurred earlier, as the ice
accumu lated on their branches.

Pussy People.

The best housekeeper is the woman
who does her work quietly, without
making her cares the theme Of CONVEX
sation from morning till night. The
fussy housskeeper is o wearlsome per-
son to live with. She has specialties
and whims and notions. Her plumage
is always ruffled. her manner is always
agitated, she is in perpetual stew, and
unfortunately never gets quite "done"
till the last quiet sleep overtakes her.
The worst Of it is that these fussy folks
always persuade themselves and try to
persuade others that they are accom-
plishing q great deal by their business,
which is only true in that they make
total destruction Of all peace and COM
fort within the limits of their petty
sovereignty. Now there is u great deal
to be done in every household, however
small, and it can be done, all of it,
without any fuss at all. The whole
operation of house cleaning can be
gone through with by disturbing one
room at a time, while the rest of the
house is kept in its usual order. 1t is
foolish to keep the house disarranged
for weeks together. If the housekeeper
would be home-keeper as well, she
must avoid business. The home is in
finitely moro than the house, and there
is such thing as destroying the home
by what is supposed to be the very per-
lection of housekeeping. The most
immaculate of bousekeepers are not al
ways the most lovely of women, for
they allow household cares to narrow
the mind and quench the intellect. In
proportion as a woman is fussy is she
inefficient. The efirlent woman has an
eye for the main chances and never
sacrifices them 10 side -issHss. The
fusss woman is forever puttering over
non essentials aud Of course is forever
behindhand with the essentials. Until
she overcomes her tendency TO fussi.
ness she can neither lie prompt, efficient
! nor serene.

A Solar Engine.

But an even greater revolution than
that which Prof. Ayrton suggested may
be wrought by the invention upon
which Capt. Ericsson has been en-
gagged, with scarcely days respite, for
fifteen years past-the solar engine. If
erected near the seabcard, where water
is to be had, the new engine will. he
claims, generate steam, and where
water is not procurable atmospheric air
may be made the medium for trans
uniting the solar energy to the motor.
In recent experiments under clear
sun, the engine worked with perfect
uniformity at velocity of two hundred
revolutions per minute, and consumed
