No subject has yielded more poetry than
that Of tears Adiectives the most various
have been used to express the qualities of
tears. They have been called "hot, {"
"cold," "languid," "briny," gushing"
"round," "glittering," dull" silent, 3"
"wearied," "wanton," and | know not
what else. They are waves of emotion,
and as a general expression they are said
to spring always from the heart-an ex-
preston singularly truthful, for no one
ever wept from the head that is, no one
ever reasoned himself or herself into tears,
except through an appeal back to emotion.
The poets have dealt with what may be
considered from their point Of view, chem
istry Of tears They have written about
salt tears" crystal tears" poisonous
tears, " "honeyed tears and the like. They
are to some extent correct in their poetic
guesses. Tears are saline, for they carry
trace of the chloride of sodium or common
salt which exists in the blood; they may
be poisonous, for in persons under the in
fluence of a soluble poison, like salt of
anthony, they may convey an infnitesi-
NAL part Of such poisonous material; they
may be honeyed, for in diabetes the tears
do sometimes become saccharine, like the
other fluid secretions.
But this sort of thing is exceptional. In
a general way tears are made up Of pure
water, holding a trace Of saline matter and
nothing more; the glands which secrete
them are the purest wells of pure water in
the body.-Dr w. B. Richardson in As
Clepiad

The word "alloy" is employed in chem.
istry to signify the combination of one
metal with one or more others. For in
stance, brass is an alloy Of copper and
zinc; bronze is an alloy Of copper and tin:
German silver is an alloy of copper, zinc
and nickel; pewter is an alloy Of lead and
tin, etc. These alloys have given a great
deal Of difficulty to scientific chemists. and
even now it is not certain whether they
are definite chemical compounds or mere
mixtures
In some cases, indeed they appear to be
fixed pOunds-that is, always present
ing the same composition, or containing
the same weight Of each of the metals; and
some can be obtained in the form Of cr-ys-
tails, which invariably present the same
composition. But when we come to con
slider the alloys of copper and zinc, as well
as those Of copper and tin, we find that
there exist a considerable number Of them
containing variable amounts OF each
metal, and differing very widely in their
properties.
For instance, an alloy Of forty parts OF
zinc with sixty parts Of copper represents
a kind Of brass which will very well serve
certain purposes In the arts, such as the
sheathing OF ships; but it will not answer
for other purposes which require brass
say, twenty-eight parts Of zinc
and seventy-two parts Of copper.-Cham-

Casualties on Our Coast.

Some idea Of the enormous number of
casualties to vessels may be obtained when
we reflect that along our coast in the past
fourteen years there have been 49, 2s casu-
alties to vessels. On our Atlantic and Gulf
coasts during the year ending June 30,
1889, there were G62 disasters to vessels.
OF these 25S collided, pa stranded, "A
foundered and 81 were burned. It is curl
Gus and interesting to note the various
causes assigned for these 662 casualties.
One hundred and sixty-eight were due to
gales and hurricanes, SO to fire, 81 sprang
aleak, the same number met disaster by
reason of fog, % through errors of masters,
officers or crew, Is by reason of Gains, cur
rents or tides, Il by reason of darkness, Is
struck rock, wreck or bridge.
As to rig the 662 unfortunate vessels are
classified as follows: SchOoners, 1884; steam
ers, 49, steamships, 43; sloops, %; ferry
boats, II; barges, 81; banks, 10; briggs, 49,,
and steam yachts, 9. Classified according
to cargoes go were in ballast, 50 carried
coal, 6S lumber, 43 general merchandise, 81

One of the loveliest dogs ever bred, one
of the gentlest and most loyal, has by some
curious misapprehension Of his qualities
fallen into such disrepute that the legisla-
ture of the state Of Massachusetts, has en-
acted a statute which makes it INSIDE
meanor for any one to keep a dog Of this
breeding within the commonwealth. This
is the bloodhound, which is generally sup
posed to follow the trail of men, and, catch
ing them, to rend their human victims
limb from limb. If this were the charac-
teristic of the dog / should not blame those
who have contributed to his disrepute
But as a matter of fact a well bred and
well trained bloodhound would no more
think Of jumping upon and biting his
quarry than would a pointer spring upon
the pheasant or partridge he had scented
His business is not to kill game, but to find
it. l have seen a manhunt in the hills of
Vermont, the only place where the pure
English bloodhound is bred, and when the
dogs came up with the men they had
trailed they only showed delight at their
success and by their cessation from bark
ing indicated to the huntsman that they
had found their game.-Christian Union.

The standing army Of Dahomey consists

population Of the kingdom, which is liable
to be called out, in part or as whole, to
take part in any expedition, and thus forms
sort Of reserve. The female corps, or to
use the common expression, the Amazons,

at a much earlier date. The firm COM
plains that its business with both of
the roads mentioned has been eX-
tremely unsatisfactory, and their rela-
tons with the agents and employees of
the two companies in the Bay cities
the reverse Of agreeable. The HERALD
is not particularly concerned in the
circumstances Of the case any further
than they relate to the general business
interests Of the city. The shipment of
goods referred to was billed to Fair
haven, via the Great Northern and
Canadian Pacific railroads. 1t was
unloaded at the Sehome wharf i'm New
WhatcOm, and from there hauled by
team to this city. The question nat
urally arises, why should not the bust
ness Of that nature which belongs to
this city be done in this city? 1t may
be small matter, but small or great
our merchants do not like to receive
goods through the Canadian Pacific
warehouse at New WhatcOm which
they feel should be sent to the Great
Northern warehouse here, even if they
do not have to pay wharfage or the adj
ditional cost of drayage. 1t is but ma
tural that we should have some little
regard for appearances and it certainly
looks better from our standpoint to see
dray loads Of goods for Fairhaven mer-
chants coming up Harris street from
the Fairhaven depot than it does to see
them coming along Frontand Eleventh
streets from New Whatcom.
