The Old Way of Passing Bills.

A document found among the Duke
Of Rutland's papers at Belvoir castle
throws a curious light upon the mode
of getting private bills through the
house of commons in the days Of King
Charles II. The case in hand was the
divorce bill of John, Lord de RoOs, an
affair that caused a great deal of gos-
sip in its day. One of his lordships
agents wrote in January, 1861: "On
Wednesday last l got six and forty of
the house of commons to the Dog tav-
ern. in the palace yard at Westmin
ster, when were present Mr.. Attorre1
General and Mr.. George MOntagu. AS
soon as they had dined we carried
them all to the house of commons, and
they passed the bill, as the committee,
without any amendments, and ordered
it to be reported the next day."

NAV Nav Custom In Belgium.


The most hOnored month of the year
in Belgium is the month of May,
known as the Virgins month and con-
secrated to the Virgin Mary. In the
province of Liege young maidens have
a quaint way Of predicting their love
affairs this month. A group of girls
arrange to meet at sunrise and start
to walk through the fields until they
come to a hedge, quite unobserved
from the highway, where they gen.
orally choose a hOneysuckle bush be-
meath the protecting branches OF
which to perform their mystic opera
tions. Each maiden selects three
blades of dew laden grass, the tops of
which she cuts to equal length and to
each of which she attaches a colored
silken thread. Black represents a
bachelor, red an unknown lover and
green the secret desires of the maid
ems heart Ten days afterward they
return to the same spot where they
left the blades growing, and that blade
of the three chosen which has sur
passed the others in height reveals the
lover the maiden is destined to have

speed lift twenty-five tons at the rate
of one mile an hour or at fast speed
ten tons at the rate of four miles an
hour. Moreover, it can be quickly al
tered and adapted to changing circum-
stances in speed or lifting weight.
All being made ready, the big grap-
mel, attached to 700 or 800 fathoms of
chain and rope, is passed over the bow
sheave, or pulley, and as soon as II
reaches bottom the ship is sent slowly
