A MYSTERY.

See how the flame doth cling to the lamp Dear in
my hand!
You think it a simple thing. easy to understand?
OF what then is it made, and how was its substance
wrought .r..
When it sprang to life and first obeyed the might
of Eternal Thought?
The match, this tiny wand, though no magician, !
But drew DER the surface of sand and To- the flame
leaped high!
gave to the wick the light, and here is the tongue
of fire,
Wonderful, steadfast, bright, never to flag or tire
While the wick and oil are renewed changeless
Sheltered from wild winds rude it falters not nor
sleeps.
And from this fame so small you might kindle the
lights of the earth,
All the lamps of home from hOYel to hall, all the
fires on every hearth;
And the flames would never be less, would lose no
Though it gave to all it would sllpossess the ygor
of its first hour.
Ills mystery full of awe; at the heart OF creation
it lies,
An engine vast of eternal law, riddle to the w1se
Strike iron cold upon flint if stone upon stone
you strike, .-.-..-... ..
Outleaps the spark with its burning hint of the
power in both alike.
Branches of wood that lie dead in the forest dark,
Rub them together rapidly, and To- the living spark
Through the whole world everywhere latent the
wonder turks,
In the depths of EARTH in the heights of air forever
the marvel works.
So the Spirit of God doth burn through the uni
verse He hath made,
From the delicate frond of the fern to the Pleia-
DIES tangled braid. .......t
Seeing We do not see; we hear, but who under
stands?
We can but bow the knee, and worship the work

If thirty or forty parts of zinc are added to
one hundred parts of copper we have ordi-
nary brass. If ten parts tin are added to one
hundred parts of copper we form bronze.
Both these alloys are in common use every
where, because of their color and strength.
But il we add five or ten parts aluminium to
one hundred parts of copper an alloy is OBJ
tanned which is two or three times as strong
as either brass or bronze, is of beautiful
golden color, and does not corrode or iarnish
appreciably On exposure. .r.
There is very little probability of alumni
ium ever being used in place of iron for
bridges. railroads, locomotives steamboats,,
houses, ETC., even if it could be bought as
cheaply. Such speculations are wild and Wis
ionary, and no one who is well acquainted
with the properties of iron and steel and
aluminium ever predicts that iron will be SO
far displaced. s9
1t is almost as rash to predict what will
not happen as to prophesy what will, and we
are continually reminded that the unexpected
often happens, yet will venture to close by
saying that the end of the Nineteenth Cen
tury will in all probability find aluminium
classed, as far as price is concerned, among
the ordinary metals of every day life.-Joseph
