true of the horse, which has less in

Thy coming fair to lead me on,
To bless my toll since thou art gone
Lifes Joy the touch OF sadness feels.
Lifes grief, life's earne5tness reveals;
Sweet flowers never bloom so fair
Their fragrance, death-like, pours in air;
The birds. they sing a sadder song
Since thou art gone, since thou art gone.
And when the silent shadows fall
And darkness creeps, like death DER all,
how my heart IN sorrow weeps
(And thine in death and darkness sleeps)
For love, thy love TO light me on
Since thou art gone, since thou art gone.

Though love be dead, I'll Owe with thee.

point brought out in his book is
that during the battle which resulted
in the sinking of the Cumberland and
the blowing up of the Congress a shot
from the Cumberland struck the hog
chain attached to one of the anchors,
killing one man and Wounding several.
He was under the impression that
this anchor was lost then, off Newport
News. but is not certain as to that.
If it was not it is matter of spec
ulation that the shot carried away the
missing portion of one of the arms of
the anhcor just found.
Besides the shaft now in Richmond
other parts of the Merrimac have been
recovered and made into souvenirs. 1t
has gone into some histories that the
armor of the Merrimac was made of
railroad iron.
1t was made of railroad iron, but not
in the shape of railroad iron. The ma
terial was rolled into plates two inches
thick and seven inches wide. Two
layers OF this were put upon back
ing of twenty inches of pine and four
inches of oak One layer of the iron
was laid obliquely and over it layer
wah laid up and down the slant of the
peaked roof and thus was made the
first ironclad. Pieces of this plate,
easily recognized, were among the
trophies obtained by souvenir material
hunters.
With the anchor, the cyclorama, a
production of the battle with the Mon
itor, which was the first vessel to have
the now universally used turret, and
Hampton Roads spread out before the
grounds at Sewell's Point. the visitor
to the jamestown exposition will have
a very comprehensive idea of the great
battle that reVolutionized naval war
fare and made useless all the chen eX-

Some time ago 1 read in the New

invented an ingenious machine for con-
verting electricity into magnetism. He
also discovered a method by which a
patient can be treated with magnetism
without feeling it, The treatment is in
the nature of magnetic bath, and it
is said to be excellent in such cases as
locomotor ataXia, nervous debility, in
somnia, etc. Recently there was opened
