Luminous Paint.

We are told that luminous paint viii
presently supersede several modes Of IL
Elimination. First, maybe it will be
used IN painting the rims Of doors and
INES OF passage, 80 that We may find our
way about the house by night without
candle or gas. Then ceilings viii be lu-
mlnous, and every room stfHiciently
lghtcd on the darkest night 10 be tray
crsed without difficulty. Large interiors,
such as those Of churches, will thus be
dimly Int. In time the outsides Of all
buildings in town will be painted. so
that when the sun sets. a coruscating
city, having no shadows. will rise like
an exhalation, and there will be no need
in its streets Of lamps, gas or electric
light Thus thoroughfares will be llu-
minated, with the exception Of those
underground, or in comparatively sun
less climes and periods, for the paint we
are thinking Of must be exposed to some
light by day in order that it may shine
by night, and there might be needless
expenditure of energy in making ii shine
by exposure TO the rays of artificial light.
Railway carriages, however, could be
made TO glow softly within and without,
and most especially road vehicles These
could be made visible on dark country
roads, without carriage lamps or moon !;
and gate posts might be made to shine
like mild pillars of fire The use of lu-
minous paint, moreover. will be invalu-
able in the case of ships, buoys and har-
bors Collisions will he rendered as un-
likely by night as by day and channels
will become distinctly visible. AS we
reflect. the uses to which this paint will
be put multiply themselves Incidentally,
when once it can be produced at mod
crate cost

Big Law Fees.

1t is said that Charles O'Connor re-
ceived SO, 900 for his services in the
jumel cascs lie Secured 10 his clients
an estate worth million. Evarts re-
ceived SO, 900 for defending Beecher
Beacn, who represented Tilton, did not
receive more than $1,000, and to raise
this sum Theodore had to mortgage his
house and exhaust all other resources. Ten
years have elapsed since this famous action
took place, and probably the world has
never seen a more exciting scandal since
the attempt of George ". to divorce the
queen.
Scott Lord, who conducted Cornelius
j. Vanderbilt's contest of his fathers
will, received $50, 000 and William Ii.
Vanderbilt paid probably even more to
his legal combatants. In the James b.
Taylor will fight in New York, the en-
tire estate, amounting to quarter mil
lion, was devoured by the lawyers dur
ing a long litigation, which was only
discontinued when the funds were ex-
hausted.
Railway litigation pays liberal fees, and
it is said that David ID. Field, of New
York, draws so, 600 year as counsel
for the elevated roads. If any practi-
toner can get berth of this kind he is
sure of fortune. In the Parish will
case in New York the fees were $50, 900.

Beecher as a Blacksmith.

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, in the
course of recent speech before an
agricultural school, was candid in con-
ceding his entire inadequacy in an agri-
cultural sense. Like the young man
who, on being asked if he spoke French,
replied that he did not. bat that he had
cousin who played the German flute,
Mr.. Beecher observed that while he was
inexperienced in farming, he had wide
range of personal knowledge of those
who were better informed. From this
topic he diverged lightly to blacksmiths.
and related the following anecdote of
his early Western life: MY horse lost a
shoe found an unoccupied blacksmith
shop. l started up the fire with the
bellows, heated the iron, forged it out
on the anvil, shaped it and put it on !;
and then drove off and didn't leave a
cent behind. But stopped at the next
blacksmith shop to have it fixed just
right, and the blacksmith, after looking
at the job, said: Mister, you may as
we'll go on; | couldn't do that work
better myself. You see I've remembered
that; felt rather proud of it,

A Strange Bird.

A resident OF Louisville, XIV, has a
sealsllin bird. The bird was recently
shot in the wing by It's owner. who after
ward captured it, II is about the size of
a hen, bat has monkey shaped face
with beak like no other bird that has
ever been seen. The beak is very short
and shovel-shaped, and has a destructive
capacity beyond that of a bald eagle
The talons are exactly like those of an
eagle, and the wings measure four feet
nine inces from tip to tip. The legs are
perfectly straight and without joint, and
about nine inches long 1t is the body
of the bird, however, that attracts the
most attention. This is covered with
fur instead of feathers, and the hair is
about the length of that on sealskin
after it is dressed TO make a lady's sack
with. II is of dark brown color, but
somewhat lighter than seal brown The
wings are covered with fur, commencing
at the body, but feathers begin farther
on. and the end feathers on the wing are
as long as those of an ordinary sized
bald eagle The bird lives on raw beef
and English sparrows, and nothing de-
lights it so much as to have an opportu-
nifty to catch, tearand devour a lot of
sparrows. 1t has already become quite
domesticated and great pet with the
ladies, who declare it too lovely for any
thing.
