Precious Boxes.

Perhaps the chief thing during the
Civi, war which afforded equal pleasure
to the soldier and hi, friend, at home
was the sending and the reception of
boxes Of good things. When these
home-boxes arrived at camp tn men re-
ceivinc them were like schoo,boys, elat-
ed over their good fortune and ready to
share their delicacies with the less fa--
vored who had not been remembered.
The author of Hard Tack and Cof-
fee" in describing the contents of such
boxes, gives list Of articles ordered by
him at some period in the service;
"Rounl- hcedeI nails (for boot heels),
hatchet, Pudding turkey, pickles, on
ions, pepper, paper, envelopes, stockings,
potatoes, chocolate, condensed milk,
sugar, broma, butter sauce, boot preser-
vative."
OF course this catalogue was supple.

A CITY Beneath the Tide.

A city at the bottom of the sea was
seen toward the end Of October near
Treptow, in Prussia, when a powerful
south wind blew the waters Of the Bal
tic away from tho shore, uncovering a
portion of ground usually hidden from
sight by the waves 1t was the ruins Of
the city of Regamucnde, once a flourish
ing commercial station, which was
swallowed by the sea SOM five centur-
les ago. Tho unusual spectacle was not
enjoyed but for a few hours When the
storm s.ackened and tn waves returned
to cover up the place which had
once been the residence and field of
labor of busy men. North German Ga

DR.. Brown Sequard, of Paris, in treat
ing before the Academy Of Sciences the
causes of phthisis, takes many Of his ex-
ampIes from England. He shows that
wherever population is dense, and sleep
ing-rooms are ill-aircd or over-crowded,
consumption prevails Dr.. Bailey re-
ported that in Milbank prison there
were out of 100 deaths, As from this
disease. According to the illustrious
doctor, room in which a consumptive
person sleeps is reebing with contagious
germs, if the air he exhales is not
carried off But how to get rid of
it in ill-built houses or very cold
weather, when it is as dangerous to
open windows as to keep them shut2 To
meet this difficulty Dr.. Brown-S.q guard
showed the academy an apparatus of his
invention. A reversed funnel, the
shape of a lamp shade, is placed at the
cad Of a tube so arranged in its curves
and angles that when it is placed beside
a bed the reversed funnel will be above
the sleeper, and draw up the air he
breathcs The other end runs into the
chimney Of the room. If there is none
it is taken through heating apparatus

WHY Corn POns.

The peculiarly Of pope is that it
contains more oil than other varieties of
maize When gradually exposed to
heat over a brisk fire, the oil in the
grain becomes converted into gas, which
expanding tears open the starch cells of
the corn. The heat at the same time
cooks the starch and enlarges it, parti-
cIes, so that the popped grain is snow
white and many times larger than before
il was heated. - 1ntsr- Oesan-
