NM. Deherain and Maquenne, in n
paper read before the Academy OF

Late measurem ents of the carbonic

Some Notable Marriages,

Tho late Colonel Forney married,
while a young printer, a lady in the
town where he sprang up.
Mrs. Mackay, the Partisan lady whose
husband is an honest miner in Nevada,
was an infatuating widow.
Don Cameron, whose wife is consid-
cred to be one OF the brightest ladies
in Wash ington, if not the leader of the
administration society there, was the
poor daughter of Judge Sherman, OF
Cleveland.
George Riggs, who recently died in
Washington, leaving fortune OF about
$4,000, 900, had daughter married in
the family OF Arundel, the same lord
who married daughter TO Cecil, Lord
Baltimore.
Old Commodore Vanderbilt married
his cousin when he was rough cat
boat sailor in the creeks and coves
about New York. His wife was devot-
edly attached to him and bore him
many children; but his treatment OF her
was very variable.
The late Colonel Thomas A. Scott,
having married early in life and become
q widower with children, married con.
siderably later ths daughter OF re.
spectacle editor in Pittsburg, who was
very well bred, but had, think, earned
her living for while ss an amateur ar
tist.
Jay Gould has plain. sensible fam
lily, to which he gives all tho attention
compatible with his vast schemes and
speculations. He seems to have adopted
the policy OF bringing his children up
simply and naturally, instead OF fsunt-
ing their names IN the newspapers as
bridemaids, best men, party queens,
etc.
Stephen Girard, the rich Philadel.
phian, who was curious compound OF
the miser and the philanthropist, the
InfideI and the Quaker. married un-
happily, and according to general tra'
dition was very upkinl to his wife.
Yet he left the best handled estate ever
given in this country, or perhaps in amy
other, to a charitable need.
Senator Gwin, who is still living, is
said to have discovered his wife in
Kentucky at thewashiub, as he rode
up to the house to get his dinner on his
way to Tennessee and Mississippi. Gwin,
after he had ridden whole day ON the
way toward home, crovo back again,
introduced himself, and proposed to
marry her then and there.
Commodore Garrison's marriage in
Now York attracted great attention. He
was quite an old man, but a splendid
looking one; and meeting at Saratoga a
young lady of st. Louis, who was con-
siderably younger than either of the
commodore's children, no proposed to
her and was accepted. Yet, notwith-
standing the disproportion of ago, the
commodore is in probably as robust
health as his wife to-day.

The Secret ofLonyeyity.

Tho means known so far OF promot.
ing longevity have been usually con.
centrated in short, pithy sayings, as:
"Keep your head cool aud your feet
warm" "Work much and eat little"
etc.; just rs il the whole science OF
human life could be summed up and
brought out in few words, while its
greatest principles were kept out OF
sight. One OF the best of these sayings
is given by an Italian, in his ono hun
dred and sixteenth year. who. being
asked the means Of his living so long,
replied with that improvisation for
which his country is remarkable:
When hungry, OF the best eat
And dry and warm keep my feet;
screen my head from sun and isin,
And let few cares perIlcx my brain.
Tho following is about the best theory
Of the matter. Every man is born
with certain stock OF vitality, which
stock cannot be increased but may be
husbanded. With this stock he may
live fast or slow, may live extensively or
intensively, may draw his little amount
OF life over large space, or narrow it
into concentrated one but when his
stock is exhausted he has no more. he
who lives extensively-who drinks
pure water, avoids all inlammatory
diseases, exercises sufficiently bat
not too laboriously, indulges
no exhausting passions, feeds on no ex-
citing material, pursuos no debilitating
pleasures, avoids all laborious and pro
tracted study, preserves an easy mind
and thus husbands his Quantum of
vitality will live considerably longer
than he otherwise would do, because he
lives slow; while he, on the other hand,
who lives intensively-who beverages
himself on liquors and wines, exposes
himself to inaammatory diseases, or
causes that produce them, labors be-
yond his strength, visits exciting scenes
and indulges exhausting passions, lives
on stimulating and highly seasoned
foods always debilitated by his
pleasures.

The anxiously awaited hour arrived,
and soon an artistic and aristocratic as.
sembly filed the grand salon.
Finally Paganini appeared, with his
instrument, in the midst of silence SO
profound that the beating Of the hearts
was almost eudible.
Tumultuous applause burst forth from
all sides Of the audience; then subsided
into one grand shout of welcome, which
caused smile of gratitude and pride
to appear on the pale faco of the cele-
brated artist.
Paganini gave one stroke with bis
bow and quiet was soon re established.
After short prelude he suddenly
strikes out into a brilliant fantasic. Ho
is no longer q man. He is transformed
into an angel of harmony. The audi
once, thrilled with Joy, become motion
less. They hardly seem to breathe
and as the last note dies away there
they sit, still listening intently.
"He will not be able to surpass that!
He never played betterl" was whispered
throughout the assembly.
However, prepared for miracles from
man who had accomplished upon the
violin what no human hand had ever
achieved before him., the amateurs
waited with feverish excitement. In O
few moments Pagan;ni reappeared,
holding the announced sabot in his
hand.
Suddenly notes 20 plaintive and sweet
fall from the new violin that every one
is moved to tears. Tho artist seems no
longer to belong to the earth. The
musical drama he executes could have
only one significance. Hear the roll
ing OF the drum behold the excite
ment of the military life, the sorrow of
the soldier who bids farewell to ms
companions, the approach to the pater-
nal roof, the meeting OF the betrothed,
the tearJ of JOY.
Tremendous applause shakes the
salon to the very foundation. The ladies
throw bouquets and the gentlemen
kneel before the illustrious artist. Here
and there one is seen drying the tears
which the magic power of tho music
caused to flow.
No one sees young girl secretcd
behind q curtain and crying bitterly.
1t was Louisette, the poor chamber.
maid, upon whom tho return of the
conscript had made the deepest impress
zion.
Paganini calls her 10 him and says:
"My dear child, we have been fortunate
enough to collect 500 francs more than
is required to procure substitute for
your betrothed. Take them. They
will be sufficient to defray the expenses
Of the journey. Aud now, as l am
about to leave this house, give you q
souvenir. Here is the old sabot. Per.
haps it merits the name of violin, now"
Louisette was too much affected to
speak, and grasping his hands she GOV.
cred them with tears of Joy and graft.
tude.
The violin was very fine dowry fol
the young girl. She sold it to an ANA.
teur for COCO francs, and it has be.
come, by inheritance, the property of
great Belgian manufacturer, who nat
urally enough values it at a very high
figure, and loves to relate its history.
