A Ship Pierced by q BIlIflsh.

During the long cruise of the whaling
bark Triton this year Captain Clifford
has been puzzled by a small but persist
ent leak that commenced near Honolulu
in the spring and continued until the
craft was docked at the Union Iron
Works. Then the managing owner,
William Wing, discovered the cause and
obtained an interesting relic of the fury
and force of things in the sea, which
the ordinary landsman wots not of.
Well down toward the keel on the star
board side Captain Wing found hole
in the ships copper. The copper was
ripped off and the hole followed though
the three-quarter inch pine sheathing.
The underlying three inch white oak
plank was found to be split as though
with wedge, and imbedded in it and
to depth of an inch and half in the
frame timber was the slender, bony
snout of a billfsh. The piece of snout
was about five inches long and increased
from half an inch in diameter at the
top to an inch at the point of fracture.
Near 10y was found the tip of another
snout, imbedded about an inch and a
half in the oak planking. This oak is
about as hard as lignumvite, and the
force exerted by the fish to penetrate it
IS far as it did is incalculable. .-[San

Who Are the Hnppiest People?

The Earl of Derby ans wered this quest
ion recently in ian address to the Scientific
and archaeological School, of Liverpool,
an institution of which he was one of
the founders. He said:
Having known men of many pro-
fessions, should say that the happjest
lives are those which have been de.
voted to science. Every step is inter-
esting, and the success of those who do
succeed is lasting.
"What general, what orator, what
statesman, what man of letters can
hore to leave a memory like that of
Darwin? An invalid in health, man
who seldom stirred from home; man
until his later years was very little
known to the outer world, but who
ON his quiet study revolutionized the
thought of Europe, and will be remem-
bered as long as Newton and Bacon.
IF fame be ever worth working fol
q do not say it is) that kind of fame is
surely the most durable, and the most
desirable of all. "
These words are true of the disinter-
ested men of science. We have never
had in this country men more uniformly
cheerful and good tempered than
Franklin, Rittenhouse, and jefferson,
who spent most of the leisure of their
lives in the pursuit of knowledge; and
Professor Agassiz was noted for the
buoyancy of his spirits in every COM
pany where he felt at home But we
can say something similar of every
person who has pursuit suited to his
talents and circumstances
The happy people are they who have
an occupation which they love, apart
from any advantage it may ring them,
one that they pursue with generous
ardor. 1t is the element of disinterest-
edness that cheers their lives, whether
they are engaged in ordinary or extraor-
dinary avocations; and this is the
reason why earnest students have such
keen enjoyment of existence. -

Most of the building materials now in
use have been employed with greater
or less skill for thousands of years. Since
primitive man discovered the adap.a-
biIity of stone, wood, and burned br ckI
composed of clay and sand for house
building, no equally useful building ma
terial has been added to the list. Accord
ing to the american Furniture Gazette,
a German mechanic has recently pat
ented an invention which has certainly
many advantages over the old fashioned
brick of clay, though Use may not prove
it to be in all respects superior.
Its practical design and ingenuity are
characteristic of the modern tendency
of inventions 1t is in the form and of
about the size of an ordinary brick, but
is composed of cast iron and is hollow.
The shell is so thin that the brick
weighs less than one made of clay. A
wall is built of such Lr r'cks without the
use of mortar, and no skilled labor is
required in laying them. The upper and
lower sides of the bricks are provided
with grooves and projecting ribs, which
fit into each other easily and perfectly
and form wall of great strength.
There are also two large circular open
ings in the upper side of each br.c,l,
arranged so as to receive projections on
the lower side of the brick that is to be
placed above it. One of these projec
tions is hook shaped which insures a
solid hold. A wall of the bricks is very
quickly put together.
After the wall is built it is covered
with paint. This closes all the cracks,
renders the wall airtight, and prevents
the bricks from rusting. By the use of
good paint the wall cln be made highly
ornamental. The bricks are very dur
able, and building made of them is
perhaps as nearly fire proof as possible.
A wall thus constructed can be taken
down or rebuilt as readily as it can be
put up. There is no mortar to be re-
moved, as there is when clay bricks are
used. A house with such walls is cool
in summer and warm in winter, for the
large air spaces prevent the passage of
heat.
With supply of such bricks man
can put up his own house and be en-
tircly independent of bricklayers. mortar
mixers, and hod carriers. If he does not
like his house he can take it down and
build another with the same material,
which is always as good as new.

Did Not Like Potatoes.

1t 81 ms singular that that nourishing
tubcr, the potato, now looked upon with
sue favor throughout the civilized
world should have been severely as
sailed 81 recently as the early part of
this century. Says Cobbett, prolific
agricultural writer of that period:
"This root is become a favorite. be-
cause it is the suitable companion Of
ii tn and misery.
at can be seized hold of before it be
half ripe; it can b. raked out of the
ground with the paws, and without the
help of any utensils except, perhaps, a
stick to rake it from the fire; can be
conveyed into the stomach in the space
of an haur.
"We have but one step farther to 20,
aud that is, to eat it raw, side by side
y it'll our bristIy fellow creatures, who,
~ tie by, reject it as long AS they can
&C., at any species of grain, or at any
ot.,"r vegetable.
Il can remember when the first acre
o! potatoes was planted in field, in the
ne gnb .ond of the place where l was
bora, and l very we'll remember that
even the poorest Of the people would
not eat them They called them hog
ppa &c but now they are become a
co.'s siderable portion IF the diet of those
Mhr raisc the Tread for others to eat.
