Sensations Of a Blind Man.

An interesting account has been lately
furnished by M. Plateau, the eminent
Belgian physicist (who has been blind
nearly forty years., of the sensations he
experiences in his eyes He has no sense
of objective light even when directing
his eyes toward the sun. But his visual
field is always divided into spaces. some
of which are pretty bright, and others
sombre or nearly dark, and which merge
into each other. Their general tint al
ternates, in time, between gray and red
dish. The relative arrangement of those
different spaces is always the same, but
the intensity of their tints varies. The
central space seems now rather bright,
now very dark; above and below, and on
the left to the limits of the field, there is
sometimes brightness, sometimes dark
ness, but on the right there is generally
a vertical band, nearly black, and be-
yond this space which is nearly always
bright and reddish. These appearances
follow all the movements of the eyes,
which probably do not participate in the
same way in the tintS, but M. Plateau
cannot distinguish what belongs to one
from what belongs to the other. No
connection of the general tint with the
work of digestion is observed. The au-
thor states that he became blind through
looking fixedly at the sun for some time,
with view to observing his after-sensa-
tons; it was not till about fourteen years
after this that Inflammation of the choroid
set in, destroying vision. but during the
interval he often saw colored and per-
sistent halos round flames etc and ha

MY MOTHERS PICTURE.

How many times, as through the room
Without thought of other days at all,
j lift my eyes, and straightway am standing
Before her picture, hanging on the wall,
Almost 1t seems her pleasant voice is calling.
And am fain to answer Yes, hear.
AL earthly sounds shall be to me as silence
If you will speak, o, Mother, Mother dear.
No answer comesl Ihush my breath to listen;
But still the eyes, with patient, steadfsst
Look into mine; they pierce through flesh and
spirit;
Ibow my head and blush beneath their rays
Fer she is wise with wisdom that appalls me;
The solemn secrets of the grave she knows;
And high DER me, by Gods own hand uplifted
Through wondrous ways of His own Heaven
she goes ..
Beyond all change, and safe from Times
mutation,
And grieved no more by earth's forlorn COM
plants
Thou pictured face! dim semblance of my
How dost thou look among the crowned
saints?
So far! SO fart Once if l family called you,
Or laughed or wept, you were so quick to
All else might fail, my mothers love was
certain.
Now dying, cen your touch must forego,
Thou there, there, and know not what spaces
Beyond the graves green width divide us
two;
Nor of the times uncounted and unmeasured
That must go DER me ere look on you.
Sometime. somewhere, when His great will
is done,
And am fit to stand once more beside you,
Toyour high place shall have leave to come.

The date burned in the bottom OF

sandwich has led eminent archeologists
to infer they were originally cast for the
Mayhower supplies. They are four
inches thick each side, and lined with
apparent traces of ham. The assay also
shows up some indications of butter OF
the Queen Anne period, but not in pay,
ing quantities. They can be reduced
by strong acids or intense heat, but can.
not be crushed by friction. As food
they are not nutritious, but are perfectly
harmless. Prof. Doremus, who has sub
jected them to a careful analysis, says
there is not enough ham in 2, 200, 900, 900

Tricycling versus Smoking.

A correspondent writes to the London
Spectator: II was led to give up smok-
ing by reading an article in Knowledge,
by DR.. Muir Brown, on the EFFECT of
Smoking" One of the observations
particularly struck me. Replying to the
argument that smoking is good, because
it checks waste of tissue, he observed
that this is precisely the reason why
smoking is bad, and that the only pos
session which it is mans duty to waste
is his body, new tissue being in every
respect better than old. The tricycle.
made in this direction. 1t wasted tissue.
You can get more exercise by an hours
tricycling, and with less fatigue, than
by three hours walking. There is an
exhilaration about it, too, that pedes-
trian never knows, and which can only
be compared to that enjoyed by riding a
good horse. As for perspiring, you per-
spire enough, especially if the day be
warm, to satisfy Dr.Jaeger' S most rigid re-
auirements, and make your flesh as hard
as the hide of a German soldier after two
years gymnastics.
"When gave up my cigars and took
to tricycling, had no idea of curing my
headaches. But they are cured. l have
hardly had a headache since, and L eat
almost twice as much as used to eat |
sleep well, and my general health could
not easily be better. In conclusion, let
me recommend all my literary brethren
who are conscious of not taking sufficient
exercise, all of whose muscles are flabby,
livers torpid and nights restless, to try
tricycling, and drop smoking, and any
other habit which may tend to check
waste of tissue, and retard that rapid re-
newal of the body which is the condition
of physical soundness.

A FAMILY OF MONKEYS.

Hindus do not hurry themselves in any,
thing they do, but the monkeys have lots
of time to spare and plenty of patience, and
in the end, after the crow has stolen lit
tie, and the dog had its morsel, and the
children are all satisfied, the poor frag-
ments of the meal are thrown on the
ground for the blunder- logue, the monkey
people and it is soon discussed-the
mother feeding the baby before she eats
herself. When every house thus, in turn,
has been visited, and no chance of further
Outdoor relief remains, the monkeys go
off to the well. The women are all here
again, drawing the water for the day, and
the monkeys sit and wait, the old ones in
front, sententious and serious, and the
youngsters rolling about in the dust behind
them, till at last some girls see the crea-
lures waiting, and, i" in the name of rain, I"
spill a 10th full of water in hollow of the
ground, and the monkeys come round it in
circle and stoop down and drink, with
their tails all curled up over their backs
like notes of Interrogation. There is
no contention or jostling. A forward
child gets box over the ear, perhaps, but
each one, as it has satisfied its thirst,
steps quietly out OF the circle and wipes its
mouth. The day thus fairly commenced,
they go off to see what luck may sring
them. The grain-keeper's shop tempts
them to loter, but the experience of previ.
Gus attempts makes theft hopeless for the
baunya, with all its years, is very nimble
on his legs and an astonishing good shot
with pipkin. So the monkeys make
their salaams to him and pass on to the
fields. Ii the corn is ripe, they can coon
eat enough for the day; but if not, they go
wandering about picking up morsels, here
an insect and there berry, till the sun
gets too hot, and then they creep up into
the DARK shade of the mango tops and
snooze through the afternoon. In the
evening they are back in the village again
to share its comforts and entertainments.
They assist at the convocation of the elders
and the romps of the children, looking on
when the .fdquir comes up to collect his
little dues of salt, corn and oil, and from
him in their turn exacting pious toll.
They listen gravely 20 the village musician
till they get sleepy, and then one by one
they Chamber up into the peepul. Aud the
men sitting round the fire with their pipes
can see, il they look up, the whole colony
of the blunier.logue asleep in rows in the
tree above them.-[Under the Sun-Phil.
