InrentiOn Of Glass.

The popular belief credits the inven-
ton of glass to the Phenicians, and our
readers will recall, no doubt, the story of
its iortuitous discovery by Phenician
merchants who rested their cooking-pots
on blocks of uatron (sub-carbouate OF
soda, and found glass produced by the
union of the alkali and the sand of the
sea shore under the action Of heat. Ii Is
unquestionable, however, that the art OF
glass-makiug and glass-working has been
known from very remote times. he ear
liest example Of glass Of which the date
has been preserved by an inscription is
# Egyptian origin. 1t is small lions
head Of Opaque blue glass, bat exchanged
externally to an olive green. 1t was
found at Thebes by Signor Droyetti, and
is now in the British Museum. The un-
derSide of this relic contains hieroglyph-
ics which bear the name of an Egyptian
monarch who lived about 2,400 b. {.
Other relics of glass bearing inscriptions
have been found among the ruins and
ombs of Benz HaSin, which are at least
as early as 1000 b. c., the art of glass
blowing is represented i'll an unmistakable
manner.-Botc Bells.

years hat anything having title to the
anne OF music has existed. Modern or
music proper lad ils rise in Italy where
most OF Tie art, in their modcr, form

t. ave been The cradle Of the arts. The
fist aricilator with Italy in the newly
dis'oyucd glorics Of he musical art was
Germany. lialian opera and Italian
church music found a sympathetic re-
spouse in that country. But observe
that this sympathy was at first entirely
e cptiye. Until Gluck founded Ma
tional school Of music for his countrymen
Germany remained content to be catered
ior by Italy. No creative genius showed
itself there for years. There we're indeed
composers in the ordinary acceptation Of
the word, but they were seryile imitators
and plagiarists, whose creations, while
possessing all the defects Of the then ltal-
ian form, lacked its sole recommendations
originality and progressiyeness. France
indeed had already formed so-called
National school before Handel and Haydn
respectively laid the gigantic foundations
on which the mammoth modern structure
OF oratorio and symphony have since
been raised. Thus we see that the Ger
man nation, that must be universally ac-
knowledged the musical nation par ereet-
ienee Of to-day, was in its artistic infancy
not only merely receptive, but also feebly

ted letter without calculating whether
il would have to travel on Sunday to
reach its place of destination, and if so
he would not mail it till Monday morn

ritanical observance. Unnumbered times
have known him to receive important
letters 50 late on Saturday night that he
would not break his fixed resolution new
er to use his eyes, which were very deli
cate, by artificial light. He would carry
the letters in his pocket till Monday
morning, then rise with the sun to read
them. In the winter of 1862,
while Jacksons forces were at Winches.
ter, he sent brigade to destroy the ca
nal leading to Washington. The expedi-
ton proved a failure, and he attributed
il in some measure to the fact that Sun
day had been needlessly lrcsspassed upon.
So when second expedition was planned
he determined there should be no Sab
bath breaking connected with it that he
could prevent. The advance was to be
made early on Monday morning. On
Saturday he ordered my husband Col.
Preston, at that time on his staff to see
that the necessary powder was in readi-
ness. The quartormaster could not lind
sufficient quantity in Winchester ON
Saturday, but during Sunday il was pro-
cured. On Sunday evening the fact in
some way got TO Jackson's cars. AT Il
very carly hour on Monday he dispatched
AN officer to Shepberdstown for other
p wder, which was brought. Then sum-
moning Cob Preston, he said very decis-
ivcly: Colonel, ! desire that YOU will
