Chinese Arithmetic.

Some of the more bland and child
Ike of the Chinese settlers in Boston
have given striking proof of their apti-
tude to adapt themselves to the ways
ard institutions of that boasted center
OF culture. Indeed, they may claim,
with 10 little reason, the ability to
give points to accused American
citizens and their legal defenders in
court. 1t seems that Chinese establish
nent was raided on Sunday evening
and a score or more Celestials arrested
fer gambling. Arraigned in court
tie next day they explained that they
had been engaged, not in gambling,
blt the pursuit of knowledge. The
implements which had been seized
were the means of imparting instruc-
ton in computation OF mental arith-
netic. The banker was the teach
e.; the players were the pupils. The
chips or cards were rewards of
merits presented to those students who
eIcelied in computation" Those
who failed in their studies were re-
qlired to pay ten cents into the, pool,
the proceeds of which were devoted at
the end of the session to the purchase
O cake and coffee for the class. Among
the implements seized was "a scoring
apparatus or ready reckoner," !"
which was explained to be a common
a1d essential thing in the complicated
processes of Chinese arithmetic.-N

peacock. | don't mean that he is vain

offends."

The Scent Of a Flower,

The scent. of the flower IS a wonderful thingi
It plays round the heart ike the zephyrs of
spring:
So subtle so soft. so resistless its power
No monarchy rules like the scent of a flower.
Some odors so blend with past happier years
They move US like melodies breathing through
tears:
For they bring back the faces and forms that
are cold
And walks in the wild woods mid sunsets OF
gold.
A fragrance exhales from a flower that /
know.
Dear pledge of love in the sweet lorg ago.
When tastes were more simple, and purer our
pleasures,
and gifts of fresh blossoms were holier
treasures.
One eve when the dew on the leaves glittered
bright.
He proff.eredd the prize with a tender Good
And my spirit grew faint with ecstatic emo
tion.
For felt in that flower lay a lifetime devo-
ton.
He is gone; yet the scent of that delicate
Still holds me with all the old passionate
power;
And oft my sick heart would lie down in
But that mercy divine melts my sorrow in
prayer.
Consider the liliesy' Lord, grant us to be
By the field and the garden brought nearer TO
Thee
To read in sweet blossoms Thy goodness and
And an infinite love in the scent Of the flower.

A BRAIN EXPO oED.

RICHMoND, Ind, March 26.-For
several days there has been in the city a
gentleman who is as great living cur
losity as was ever exhibited in museum,
an example of how bad a man may be
injured and still live. The gentleman S
name is ". B. Metcalf, aud he is drum
mer for a Kentucky tobacco house. He
was noticed first from the fact that he
always kept his hat on, save when sleep
ing and eating his meals. A reporter,
who sat near him at dinner at the Hunt
ington House, noticed the peculiar shape
of his head From his eye brows back
his forehead was sort of an inclined
plane, if such an expression is applicable.
He wole a wig and the front part of this
was changed Attracted by the curious
hair covering the reporter asked for an
exclamation, and Mr.. Metcalf exhibited
something unusual in surgical history.
He was soldier in the Union army, and
in battle had been hit by a cannon ball,
the missile grazing and fracturing his
skull. DIR. Agnew, Of Philadelphia,
afterward attended him and removed the
largest piece of skull that was ever re-
moved from patient who recovered.
The skull is broken away, leaving place
as big as mans hand, with no bone
from over the right eye. brow back to the
TOP of the skull. He wears pad over
the place, and wig over all, so that the
injury is not noticeable other than
resemb blance to the head Of Flathead
Indian. In the presence of a number of
old soldiers who had called to see him,
Mr. Metcalf lifted the pad and wig. and
the entire brain was exposed, its pulsa
tions and beatiDgs being plainly per-
ceptible He suffers no Inconvenience
from the CHASTITY injury, transacts bust
ness az we'll rs anyone, and does not
seen to mind his condition other than
dislike for tha notoriety it forces on him,
the PEOPLE who are aware of his affiiction
looking upon him as q great curiosity.
