One of the recent electric batteries acts
only when exposed to light. The latest
form OF battery-deyised by Mons. Ja-
blochkoR, the eminent French electrician
is perhaps quite as novel and ingenious,
it being kept in constant operation by the
effect Of the atmosphere's moisture
upon the metal sodium. Each element
comprises small plate Of sodium separa-
ted by wooden pegs from plate Of carbon
Of somewhat lighter te1turs than that used
for ordinary batteries. The carbon and q
small ooppsr wire attached to the sodium
plate form the electrodes. Exposure of the
sodium to the air causes It to oxidize and
form caustic soda, which is dissolved by
the moisture Of the air and gradually drains
away as concentrated solution, thus con-
stantly leaving fresh surface Of metal to
be acted upon. The battery's action con-
tinues so long as the sodium lasts and the
air contains moisture, and the onIy means
Of stopping it is to shut it in an air-tight
case. The degree of the airs humidity and
the temperature determine the electro
motive force.

IN MEMORIAM.
taEonaE D. PRENTICE.

AE0naE D. PRENIICE.
: On the bosom Of q river
Where the sun un1oOsed his culver,
On the star lit stream forever,
Sailed q vessel light and free;
Morning dsw-drops hung like mamma
On the bright folds Of her banner,
While the zephyrs rose to fan her
Softly to the radiant sea.
At her PROV pilot, beaming
n the flush Of youth, stood dreaming.
And he was in glorious seeming
Like an angel from above;
Through his hair the breezes sported,
And, ~ on the wave he Hoated,
Oft tho pilot. angel-throated.
WArhled lays OF hope and love.
Through those locks 90 brightly flowing.
= Buds Of laurel bloom were blowing,
And his hands anon were throwing
Music from Tyre Of Rpld;
1 6wietly down the stream be gfided.
Boft the purple wave divided. I.
And q rainbow arch abided
On his canvas' snowy fold.
A1Anxious hearts. with fond devotion,
Watched him sailing to the ocean,
Praying that no Wild commotion szs5
Midst the elements might rise;
And he seemed some young Apollo,
Charming summer winds tn follow,
Mhlte the water-crag's cOrOlla
Tfembled to his music's aighs.
Rolled beside city haunted
By an awful spell, that daunted
Every conner to her shore;
Night shades rank the air cncumbered.
And pale marble statues numbered,
Where the lotus eaters slumbered,
And 'avOhe to life no more.
Then there rushed with lightning quickness
Ger bis face q mortal sickness,
And the dews in fearful thickness
Gathered DER his temples fair;
And there swept q dying murmur
Through tho sultry southern summer,
As the beauteous pilot conner
Perished by that city there.
Still rolls on thAt radiant river,
And tho sun unbinds his culver.
Ger th8 star-lit streams forever,
On it, bosom - before;
But that vessel's rainbow banner
6reees no more the gay savanna,
And that pilots luts drops mama
On the purple WAVES no more.

other revolution in the country which has
been so much injured by sudden and vio-

anticipations Of trouble is the serious sick
ness of Alfonso XII, the young monarch
who YEARLY wears crown the anxie.ies of

Should he survive this year it is not prob
able that it will be, for the vhc!e period,
