Memories of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS and

Memories of the Aztecs-NIontezunaa and
His Wives-Superstition.
A greater contrast can scarcely be I'M
agined than between the glittering gayety of
the Paseo and the gloomy shades of Chapul-
tepec. Perched upon its rocky eminence, the
historic castle seems to brood i'll solemn 81
lence upon the past, and the very air, wills
perinS among the moss-draped expresses sur
rounding it, is heavy with the memories of
other years. So long ago that their records
are lost in oblivion the Toltec lived here
who came from their unknown "Tollen, the
Land of Reeds, and departed. none knew
whittier. Long after this exodus and the
coming of the seven tribes to Anahuac from
their equally unknown "Aztlan, the country
of Herons,'1 the Aztecs-wanderinc from
place to place around the salt lagoon, Tex
coco-fnally made stand at the mountains
on its western borders, which they named
Chapultepec.
From their ancient picture, histories painted
upon woven tibers of the maguey, we learn
that the height has given this name tchapul,
meaning "grasshopper," and tepec, 'hill, y be-
cause the early pioneers were compelled to
subsist entirely upon these long legged insects
which We're here found in great numbers.
Centuries later this place became famous as
the resort and burial place of Indian kings.
and GOO years thereafter decisive battle was
fought upon the mountain between nations
then unborn-the soldiers of Mexico and the
United States. On its porphyrytic summit
once stood Montezuma's most luxurious
palace, where his thousand wives were
sheltered, and under these wonderful expresses
that monarch held his barbaric court with
more than Persian splendor and the semi
civilization of the Tartar races The SPOT
was cOUSecrated TO the ashes of his apnaS+or,
and statues of himself and King Axayacati
were left standing as late as the middle of the
last century. Prescott tells us that Monte
zuma's gardens stretched for miles around
the base of Chapultepec, and that the grove
of gigantic trees tcupressus distica), MANY of
which are over fifty feet in circumference
We're centuries old at the time of the con-
quest
1t is a popular superstition that under these
stately expresses - now gray-beartled with
moss, like venerable Druids-nyteriou flo

T,e Scientific American thinks that the
o,,;, 1ltion In regard to the cruelties practi-
ia IN animals has been rather overdone
Ugh ignorance of the nature of pain,
whion, 1t insists, depends essentially upon
The y. ind, and not upon the nerves. All
enI,n Is of lower grade than human suffer
voru Diuch less pain from physical I'm
inr;as than our sensations convey to us
We GA 2 readily see the proof OF this in
gnriI ,.abituRl actions. Many Of the star
fishes detach parts of their arms at the
very smallest provocation, and remain
uninjured by the change or loss. A fish
that has torn away the hook from a line
in Its struggling TO escape will take the
bait again as foon IS its fright has passed
off, and while the hook still remains in
the jaw which it has perforated. A fawn
whose foreleg was wounded by shot had
1t amputated without an9sthetics, and
gave scarcely a sign of pain. Coming
still higher, we recognize the fact, which
is perfectly well known, that favages OF
the human race pay small attention to in
juries. Again, every surgeon sees con-
yinciDg proof in his daily experience that
the sensitiveness of his various pat. ents
varies so widely that there must be some
cause for 1t beyond that which is physical.
There Is no such wide diversity in the
| nerve tissue of their systems as can ac-
| count for the extreme differences with
which they not only manifest pain, but
with which they doubtless feel it. The
conclusion is that, though the transmits

The Inventor o, Valve Motion

The invention of the valve to steam
engine was made by mere boy. New
cohen's engine was in very incomplete
condition, from the fact there was no
way TO open and close the valve except
by means of levers operated by hand.
He set up large engine at one of the
mines, and a boy Humphrey Potter)
was hired to work these levers. Although
this is not hard work, yet it required his
constant attention. AS he was working
the levers he saw that parts of the engine
moved in the right direction and at the
same time he had to open and close the
valves. He procured a strong cord, and
made one end fast to the proper part of
the engine, and the other end to the
valve lever, and TIE boy had the satisfac.
ton of seeing the engine move with per.
feet regularity of milton. A short time
after the foreman came around, and saw
the boy playing marbles at the door.
Looking at the engine, he saw the in
genuity of the boy ,aud also the advantage
of his invention. The idea suggested by
the boys inventive genius was put in q
prac teal form and made the steam cngine
an automatically working machine.

purpose Of these several amendments
