Curious Finds In Trees.

Curious finds h-vo not inirequently
been made in trees. Some wood cutters
in tho forest of Dfommling made a
strange discovery. They began to foil
venerable oak, which they found to
be quito hollow. Being half dccayed it
speedily came to tho ground with a
crash, disclosing q skeleton in excclle mt
preservation; even the boots, which
came above the knees, were perfect. BY
its side worc powder horn, porcelain
pipe bowl and silver watch. Tho
teeth wero perfect. 1t would seem to
DO the skeleton of man between thirty
or forty years of age. Its conjecturcd
that whilc engaged in hunting he
, climbed the tree for som, purpose and
slipped into tho hollow trunk, from
which there was no release, and no
probably died of starvation. Another
mystery was found in tho heart of an
oak. From tree of this kind q largo
block, about eighteen inches in di-
amcter, that had been knock ing about
in variou' yards and wo odsheds, was
split up lately, and in it was fouad an
augcr hole about three fourths of M
inch in siz', containing bunch
of human hair dono up in q
paper. Tho hair was near the centre
OF the block and fastened with &
pine plug. 1t was apparently put in
when the tree was quito small, as tho
treo had grown over the plug to tho
thickness of about four inches, with
the grain perfectly smooth and straight.
A natural curiosity was shown in mo.
chanic's workshop. This was tho
skeleton and nest of bird imbeddcd
in pieco of beech. The tim Der see med
quito sound all around tho cavity, and
there was sign of any aperture in it;
but the timber being sawn up the
nest with tho bird sitting upon it was
found. Tho most appeared to DO built
with mud, and tho bird resembled q
titmouso. Probably at the looping of
branch a cavity was formed and tho
outside subsequently grown over; but
how the bird was enclosed seem, diff
cult to imagine. In tho contro of
log of Honduras mahog any tho saw re-
vea'ed largo piece of honeycomb.
Tho finder says tho wax with tho cell
was hard and resemblod in color tho
appearance of mummy. Tho remains
OF tho bees werc incrusted in tho wax.
another log of mahogany was being cut
in vencers by q cabinet maker, when
his attention was attracted by tho APP
pearancc Of remark bic and striking
profile of her Majesty in the wood.
Tho likeness was so true that all who
cav it acknowledged the resemblance &c.

Wonders of the Dead Sea.

One CT tho most intcrestin lakes or
inland seas in the world, is the Dead
Sea, which has no visible outlet. It is
not moro fancy that has clothed the
Dead Sea in gloom. Tho des olatc
shores, with scarcely green thing in
sight, and scattered over with black
stones and ragged driftwood, form a
fitting name for tho dark, sluggish
waters, covered with a perpetual mist,
and breaking in slow, heavy sopulchral-
toned waves upon the beach. 1t seems
as if tho smoke OF the wicked cities was
yet ascending up to heaven, and as if
tho moan OF their fearful sorrow would
never leave that Gods mitten valley.

thrust her oso into tho funnel aud set

The Suitan's Troubles


Our amiable friend, tho Sultan of
Turkey, observes ths New York Tri-
bunc, is not finding life n bed of roses
in this yenr of grace. A few months
ago hundred or SO of his cooks won't
on strike for higher wages, and ho was
forced to bring tho affair to percmp-
tory settlement by sonding the offend ers
into exile. Now 1000 soldiers have
raised n row because, when discharged
at tho expiration of their term of scr
vice, they could not get their gay. They
raked tho fires of tho transports in tho
harbor OF Constantinoplo and declared
that tho vessels should not sail until
their accounts had been squared. In
this emergency tho Minister OF War
was at his wits end. but finally no sue
ceeded 10 raking together onough m oncy
to pay them off. A precedent has bean
established that may provo ublos ONO
in the future, and the Sultan is roino
to look into the matter. On tho whole
this potentato's lot is not likely greatly
to be envied by tho uucrowned sover-
eigns OF tho Uaitod States.
