Playing Oh One String.

Paganini, the famous violinist, gave an
amusing account OF his first effort to per-
form on his instrument upon one string
only. 81 was playing" he says, "at the
Court Of Lucca to the Princess (Napoleon's
fayorite sister and another fascinating crea-
ture, who must be nameleSs, who, | flatter
myself, had 4 penchant for me, and was
never absent from my performance. On
my side had long been her admirer. Our
mutual fondness gradually became stronger
and stronger, but we were forced to con-
zeal it, and by this means its strength and
ferVor were much increased. One day
promised TO surprise her at the next con-

The Needle Of the Compass.

beg to state, said Professor Patterson, OF
the Coast Survey, that the reason why the
needle points in the northerly direction is
that the earth in itself is q magnet, attract
ing the magnetic needle as the ordinary
magnets do, and the earth is magnet as the
result OF certain cosmical facts, much af-
fected Iy the action of the sun. These
laws have periodicities, all OF which have
not as yet been determined. The inherent
and ultimate reason Of any fact in nature,
rs gravity, light, heat, ETC., is not known
further than that it is in harmony with all
facts in nature. Even IN earthquake is in
perfect harmony with and the direct re-
sultaut of the action of forces acting under
general laws. A condensed explanation in
regard to the needle pointing to the north
ward and southwark is a. follows: The
magnetic poles of the earth do not coincide
with the geographical poles. The axis OF
rotation makes an angle OF about 23o with
a line joining the former. The northern
magnetic pole is at present near.the arctic
circle on the meridian OF Omaha. Hence
the needle does not everywhere point to
the Astronomical north, and is constantly
variable within certain limits. At san
Francisco II points about 10 to the east Of
north, and at Calais, Me, as much to the
west. At the northern magnetic pole a
balanced needle points with its north end
downward in plumb line. At San Fran
cisco it dips about $50, and at the southern
magnetic pole the south end points direct
ly down. The action of the earth upon a
magnetic needle at It's surface is of about
the same force a. that OF hard steel mag
net, forty inches long, strongly magnetized,
ut distance of one foot. The foregoing is
the accepted explanation of the fact that the
needle points to the northward and south
ward. OF course no ultimate reason can
be given for this natural fact in nature

JANUARY 4, 1857.
Editors Dispetch; The following facts
are well authenticated;
A few weeks ago family removed from
Charlestown, w. Va, to Roanoke. They
brought with them dog, TO which al, but
especially the children, were much at
tached. lie was cross between the shep-
herd and the Esquimaux.
At Gish's, three miles from Roanoke, inc
gentleman got of the cars. followed by MS
dog. AS the train started he resumed bis
seat In the cars, hut the dog was LETT in the
depot. On reaching Roanoke the dog was
missed, and inquiry sent back to Gish's
but 1t seems that the dog, after missing his
master. wandered about the place until q
train passed eastward, which he entered,
but was kicked of by the conductor at Bon
sacks, six miles from Roanoke. Though
diligent inquiry was made, this was the last
heard from the lost pet.
The family obtained rooms above the
drugstore i'm Roanoke, and last Friday
night about bcdtime-two weeks after the
dog disappeared-a whining and scratching
was heard at the top Of the steps, and
little girl, 10 whom the dog had been
faithful and loving companion, exclaimed {:
"Mamma, that sounds just like Rover -
The door was opened, and there stood 10
vr-his glossy coat all soiled-seeming
w,llnigh famishcd and very foot-sore, yet
with wagging tail and glistening eye and
JOYOUS bark, telling his happiness in again
meeting the loved ones.
How did the dog find his owners in Tho
second story OF building in town hi
had never been In, six miles distant from
where last seen, and in direction opposite
from his lifelong home!
The editor Of the New York ObSerre'
will please take note Of the above.

How He Lost His Baggage.

A woman writing to the Chicago Tribune
says: Sitting in the New York and Bos.
ton express, in the depot at New Haven, Il
man boarded us and asked IL Mrs.
was on board. An old lady directly in
front OF me tremblingly got up, read the
telegram the man handed, and in great
haste left the car. She stood crying on the
platform, gathering her baggage, when |
spied little satchel and umbrella on the
seat in front. The cars were III motion.
but with DELICIOUS promptness, the window
beng open, threw the two articles out
upon the platform, and leaned back like
one who had done noble deed. Presently
a dapper young man came in and began
poking about for his umbrella and satchel.
The passengers who had seen my baggage
act never betrayed me, but we all laughed.
and some one said the young man had bet
ter telegraph back 10 New Haven, as
some accident had called traveller oil the
train, and great deal OF baggage was car
ricd out 70 her."

There lives at Tangiers, in Morocco, q
French photographer who has just re
ceived from the Sultan aud extremely
interesting commission. 1t is nothing
less than to photograph the wives of his
highness, and as there are 364 Of them
only a single wife short of one for every
day In the year -the lucky photographer
has a task before him mat may justly be
set down as unique. The sultan also
directs that the portraits be inclosed In
an album having lock and key, and that
the key be kept by himself alone. Pos.
sibly the photographer will be shrewd
enough to keep his negatives; surely nc
great tact would be required to do this
for what does the sultan Of Morocco
know about negatives? And almost any
photographer possessing such negative,
might make his small fortune with then
in Europe.
