HY-aONE.
BY CLIO STANLEY.


Old days old days how happy they,
When youth and hope were mine
When flowers swung bright ON every bush
And fruit ON every vine
When all the meadow-land was fair,
The mountain-tops were gold,
And every bud, with rare delight,
Would rose OF hope unfold
Old dreamsi old dreams how fancy wove
Her colors rich and rare
Brighter than all the sunlit hues
That deck the morning air
Their magic power cherish vet,
The tale love TO tell,
Although life's sad reality
know full well-full we'll
Old faces, too, how bright they shine
Thro' memory's mellow haze;
And lovingly look down ON mo
Thro' long-departed days
A fathers smile. mothers tear,
A sisters gentle look;
All, me how many a leaf I've turned
In sorrows open book
Sweet words of love, they sound again
An echo from the past
They cannot die upon the ear
They will forever last
Tho days may wnne, and dreams may die,
Those faces still will be
Tho happy stars that shne ON mo
From out eternity

The word ssrice' is evidently Of East
ern origin: Tamil, dfisi, Arabic, arus;.
Latin, oryza; Italian, rise; French, riz.
1t is only second in importance among
the cereals to wheat, and forms theagrain
food of over onc-third of the human
race.
Its use by the inhabitants Of China and
India extends as far back as the earliest
records of either country. A Chinese
classic describes infinitely the drainage
and irrigation works constructed by the
Emperor Yu on the Yang -tse-kiang
4, 256 years ago. 1t was cultivated in
Egypt fully fifty centuries ago, though
not the principal food of the latter coun-
try. Frequent Biblical references to rice
are found. Herodotus fully describesit,
as does Pliny in his treatise upon the
food plants of India. While Gibbon con-
siders that it was cultivated in Spain at
the time of the Roman occupation, it
certa My, as an industry, attained no
prominence in Europe until compare
lively modern times, and it is generally
believed to have been introduced by the
Moors into Andalusia during the eleventh
century. and to have crossed from Spain
into Italy about century later.
Rice is grown in nearly every portion
Of the globe-in Java, Brazil, Hawaii,
America, Italy, Japan, India, but princi-
pally in China and Burmah. The Eur
mese crop is nearly all exported, the in
habitants subsisting on some cheaper
food, as millet or dourrha; that Of China
is principally consumed at home, though
good deal finds its way into this coun-
try. Southern BicOuac.

Naval warfare Reduced to a Science.

The Selfridge torpeao-that in general
@use--is tin can filled with abont sixty
pounds Of guncotton, which has the ex-
ploslve force of three, bundled pounds of
powder. II is exploded by electricity,
and makes noise enough TO brighten an
enemy's ship into showing her heels,
though In the water the sound is of
course subdued and nearly lost. Some
of the torpedoes, however, are far more
terrible things to see and hear o. than
this comparatively simple ssecimen.
They are MAJ in some cases twenty-five
and even thirty feet in length, and filed
with so much powder, guncotton, dyna-
mite and nitro-gl ycerine, not to mention
various cOmbustibles of the same agree
able nature, When it is necessary they
are set oil to spin through the water at
. frantic rate of speed, generating inter
nal heat by the action Of a sort Oh paddle
wheel, until, just as they reach the i'll
fated vessel which they are Intended to
annihilatc the whole internal oatriyaace
goes off without a symptom Of warning,
