1t is an odd thing, muses. Harper's
Weekly, that no sooner has death
claimed our friends for his own than
We begin to say and do multitude of
things of little use at all then in CON-
parison to that which they might have
been had they come in advance of
death. Then out of hand we flock to
the house with offers of assistance and
profers of friendship; we rob our
gardens and our hot-houses aud send
out flowers in proFusion, and funeral
wreaths md crosses and pillows and
anchors and stars to encumbrance.
and do all we can, though late, to hide
and disguise and sweeten fate. But If
we had flocked to the house while the
dead could have been aware of it, how
much pleasure and excitement and
relief from monotonous or lonesome
hours our sick friends might have en-
loyed when all was tiresome round
of day and night and medicine and
solitude, when bunch of flowers
brought in would have brought q
light to the dull eyes of Joy both over
the gift and the giver, joy which no
broken columns of tuberoses and
ives, costing small fortunes, can
bring to the eyes of the dead.
Even could we not have been ad
mitted to the sick room itself, we
could have brought there the murmur
of the outside world by the mere
knowledge given to the patient that we
were within the gates, some break
some cheer. some good.
Then, too, how profuse we are with
our good words after the ears are
stopped with dust. We do not hesi-
tate then to say all that is true, OF
even mere than Is true in praise of the
| departed. 1t is as if We had suddenly
discovered in the sand jewel tit for
Kings TO wear; We make an outcry and
hold it up to the light and turn it thi.
way and that and exclaim and marvel
and admire aud call on others to do
likewise. There is nothing too much
to say about this person now that the
place one filled is vacont. But if we
had said tenth of it all when it might
have been heard by the living person,
of how much more worth it had BEEN
What Joy and satisfaction it might
have givenl the subject of it all might
have felt as if not living in vain, as il
satisfied to leave life with such appre-
citation. But it was not spoken, and
life went out without it: and now VIZ
regret 1t, and do the same thing over
with the next friend,

A REMA RKABLE ALLOY.-Thc chief
peculiarities of manganese steel
which has for a considerable time been
subjected to English experiment--are
its great hardness and toughness, the
effect upon it of water-quenching, and
its resistance of magnetic influence.
The hardness of the cast material is
greatest when the manganese is in
the proportion of about five er cent,
and least at ten per cent, becoming
gradually greater as this percentage
is exceeded. When hardest the ma
teriaI cannot be worked in q lathe,
though it seems soft when tested by
hammering; and at the softest, it re-
quires fifteen or twenty times as long
for working as ordinary steel. In
stead of being hardened by plungiDg
when hot into water, this steel is
tougheaed in an extraordinary degree,
and perhaps slightly softened. Suit
ably tempered, it car. be drawn into
wire capable ofsustalning more than
100 tons per square inch. 1t is a poor
conductor of heat and electricity. and
is practically unaffected by the mag
net. Ships built from it would cause
no deviation OF the compass.

sold Tippecanoe" and Amer
ica's Irish Soldiers.
Patrick Egan, in his speech at the
recent Harrison and Morton banquet
at Lincoln, Nebraska, said:
Our President-elect comes of a fam
lily of American patriots. For at least
three generations have the Harrisons
done yeoman service for the cause of
American freedom. Gen. Harrison
father, John Scott Harrison, did noble
work in the halls of congress. while
his grandfather, "Old Tippecanoe,"
has left name for prowess against
the enemies of America that will live
so long as American nationality sur
wives. There is little incident in
the career of 'Old Tippecanoe" which
should have deep interest for every
patriotic American, but especially for
those of my race. In the war of 1872
IL, as in the war of the Revolution,
Irish.Americans bore an important
part-so much SO that the mother
country, or, as we Irish regard her,
the step-mother country, was specially
embittered against Americas Irish
soldiers. England has always claimed
that once subject always a subject.
So, while she accorded to native-born
American officers and soldiers whom
she captured the privilege of prison
ers of war, she regarded the Irish born
officers and soldiers who fell into her
hands as subjects, and consequently
traitors, and number of them were
sent over to England to be tried and
executed. They might not have said
anything about the trial, as trial in
GLAND when an Irishman is the de-
ant is, as Lord ,Denman, the chief
ord of England, in 1843 described
nockery, a deiusion, and a snare.
