4 Powerful Argument.

lOpie P. Read, in Drake's Magazine.
 During the recent session Of the Arkan- saw legislature, a bill to repeal the law prohibiting the carrying of concealed weapons was introduced. Pending dis cussion for the important measure, a moss-covered representative arose and said:
 "Mr, Speaker, 1 am here, sah, to rep resent my people and to defend the con- ssitution of the United States. 1 want this law repealed, for think that e man has got perfect right to tote anything he dam pleases, sab. If want to lug . moving blade under my coat, it aint nobodys business, for the constitution of this glorious country says that the re- liRious liberties of a man must not be tempered with. Out in my county, some time age. Ali Boyd-as good a man as ever chawed the fragments of a aeer- got into difficulty with powerful fel- low, and shot his hide fall of the eplury- bus onion. Now, suppose Ali had left his pistol at home? Why, sah, the country merchant that's got a mortgage on his farm wouldn't CT knowed him. Why, sah, when the powerful fellow got through with him, his hide wouldn't CT held half a peck of sheiied corn, and there wouldn't CT been enough meat on his bones 10 have baited a trot.line. Therefore, sah, dcn't talk to me abou, this pistol law. Let me tell you. Aites that law was passed, 1 took of my pistols, and I'll be blamed # didn't take such . cold, that my friends thought was going into consumption. The doctor, after ex- amining me, said
 "Major, you ought to have bsttes sense than to have tuck oG your Aaonels.
 "Mr. Speaker, 1 ain't got over that cold yet, and [ ask the repeal of this law, % can warm up and be a man once more.

Remarkable Eyssight.
London rimea.l

It Is recorded by Humboldt that he vas travelling in South America under conditions which readered 1t necessary for the party to divide, and to reach their destinations by different routes. AS he and those who remsined with him ap- preached the appointed meeting place he said to the Indian guide that he won. dered what had become of the otheSs. The guide looked at him with some sur prise, ,and pointing across wide mountain gorge, one side of which they were trav- ersing replied " There they are" Hum. boldt himself could see nothing but rocks and verdure, but ultimately, being as- sisted bv the guide as to the position of the other party succeeded in discovering them by the aid of telescope and then by making the guide describe the order of march and the relative positions of the several individuals, obtained proof that he actually saw them plainly with his un- aided eyes. An experience of equal sig ni6cance, if of less striking character, may bc had in any Highland deer forest, where deer, which are conspicuous to the eyes of the keeper, can only be seen with difficulty and uncertainty, and after much pointing out of neighboring landmarks by visitors who are habituai dweller ip town. ln other words the acuteness of sight of the forester Is probably much in- ferior to that of the savage. People are too prone to accept this as something necessary or inevitable, and to think of the forester or the savage as the posses sor of some special acuteness which has been eonierred upon him by training and practice, instead of thinking Of the citi- zen as a person who by reason of unfa- vorable circumstances falls short of the acuteness of vision which he ought to DOSsesS

But what little we do know makes W all but certain that the earth is very much hotter inside than at the sur face tor consider vhat would happen if we were tc put coating of clay some inches thick round red hot cannon ball, The heat from the ball would travel oy b< conducted through the clay slowly be. cause clay does not allow heat to pass rapidly through 1t, Snll there would be a constant tiow of heat from the bail through the clay, and this heat when t reached the outside ot the clay covering would pass away or be radiated into the air. In the cod the ball would grow cold. Now in the case of the eastA, we kno~ that we have an outside cold shell which corresponds ,o tho clay coating. Whether the earth is hot all through like the eaa. non ball we are not certain, bu, we have found that | portion of i,. an interior shell, is hotter than the outside crust.

 It produced such an impression upon her that the engagement was broken and only renewed again by the intervention of friends.
 Preparations were made on the most lavish scale, and although all the acces- sories of the supper had to be wagoned hundreds of miles this wedding is re- ferred to by octogenarians and centen- arians of the county as one of the finest ever witnessed in Old Roanoke. ~That was a time when weddin's was weddin's," recently said an old gray-haired servant of the family who still retains a vivid recollection of the event.
 Many of the guests came hundreds of miles in private conveyances. There were no commodiccs hotels near by where comfortable quarters could be ob. tained for man and beast, consequently the hospitality of both Oakland and Fey. ton Hall was severely taxed. At one time sixty extra horses stood in the stables of Peyton Hall alone, a like number also testing the corn bins of Oakland.
 Colonel William C. Preston, the dis tinguished southern statesman, whose wit and eloquence added brilliancy to more than one presidential administra- ton, drove all the way from his home in South Carolina, four-in-hand, while his baggage-wagon, containing the maids and valets ot the party, brought up the rear. Mrs. Floyd. the wife of Governor Floyd and mother of another Governor Floyd, also came, driving four-in-hand. Tn fact, this was the general style at thai time, and we find that the people of fifty years ago were quite as tenacious in re- gard to these matters as are their de scendants of to-day. nuff-colored equip. ages mounted high in the air on i'm mense springs were es regk.
