I will not assert that the bricks
found among the ruins Of Ninevah,
covered with cuneiform characters,
were tablets which had dropped from
the hats of "Assyrian Specials" neither
will insist that ST. Paul alluded to the
news-correspondents of Athens when
he spoke of those Greeks there who
"spent their time in nothing else but
either to tell or to hear some new
thing" In ancient Rome, however,
centuries before there were types or
printing presses, telegraphs or ocean
steamers, there were metropolitan cor
respondents. Wherever the victor

This great national society, will, during the
present week, make Its annual appeal to our
citizens, through the visit OF Rev. Mr.. Rosse-
ter, one of its Secretaries. Its design is to

To any one fond of machinery visit to
the water works pumping house, near La
gonda. will richly repay the trouble of get
ting there. The pumping machinery is really
q marvellous example OF mechanical skill.
The engineer, Mr.. Powell, has a fine collec-
ton Of plants in the engine room, and takes
the greatest pride in the machinery. Visitors
are numerous and on Sunday the number
often averages fifty or one hundred during
the day in summer, and half as many in the
winter. One contrivance in the engine room,
which is attended with amusing results, is
the shocking machine. From a small cleo
trical macbin nes at the side OF the rooms, wires
are run under the floors, and connected with
the brass hand-rail in front OF the great en-
gine A foot board of zinc on the floor in
front of the railing completes the contrivance
When visitor enters, stands on the strip OF
zinc, and grabs the hand-rail, preparatory to
a long and satisfactory inspection Of the ma
chinery, he usually jumps two feet high
when he feels the bar throbbing in his hand
like a wasp's nest. The effect is all the more
effective because so unexpected.

General Warren Keifer seems anxious to do
as much active service as possible in his re-
naming days in Congress. He is taking a
very prominent part in the debates of the
House, and is listened to W ith marked atten-
ton. He had a lively contest with General
Warner on the Mexican War Pension Bill
last week. General Keifer, aided by two or
three to whom he yielded a few minutes
each OF his time, urged the passage of the bill
with the amendment as fair and just meas
ure. as it would enable q large number Of
worthy applicants to get their names upon
the pension roll who now had great difficulty
in doing so, even after years OF effort, on sc-
ccaut of the difficulty OF procuring the nee
essary evidence to satisfy the present strin-
gent laws. General Warner fought the
amendment with great zeal.
