*60NG OF MARION'S MEN.
Our band is few, but true and tried,
Our leader frank and bold; 1
The British soldier trembles j
When Marion's name is told. 1
Our fortress is the good green wood,
Our tent the cypress tree :
We know the forest round us
As seamen know the sea.
We know its walls of thorny vines
Its glades of greedy grass, (
Its safe and silent islands
_ Within the dark morass. !

As trange and sudden fear.

Are beat to earth again ; ,
And they who fly in terror deem
A mighty host behind, '

The Centennial?Gov. Chamberlain. ?
? i
Hoii.s D. H. Chamberlain, Governor <
of South Carolina, was announced at
the Charlotte Centennial celebration on
Independence Square. He was greeted '
with applause and spoke to the multitude
in the following lauguage:
Fellow-Citizens: I rise to offer to
you and this assemblage the cordial re- 3
spouse of the people of South Carolina i

announced, and to all the fearless mem- |
ories, the high inspirations and the exalting.

memorates and suggests. I know full

be her official representative. Older,
abler, better voices than mine will, 1 J
cannot doubt, speak for her?voices of
those who have sprung from her soil,
who know as household words the tra- .
ditions of the Carolinas, who will repre- !
. ngent more adequately than I can hope '
^to do, the genus loci which has inspired, '
which still inspires, and directs the ea^.&er,
zealous, fervid and constant patriotism
of the men of Mecklenburg and '
Carolina. But what heart, if it be an
American heart, whether it sprung to
"life beneath these sunny skies, or where 1
I nature presents herself in more rugged i
.-.and repellant forms; what heart, touch- <
!' ed with one spark of the divine flame of
eve of country, does not bound and,
swell to greet and welcome this day,
' and this occasion.
If Marathon and Plataea, after 2,000 .
, years, still speak the lesson of devoted
and valorous patriotism ; if Runnymede 1
.'-after six centuries, is still a name for
Enelish patriots to conjure by; if Mars- :

shock and carnage of her battle for more
?hau 200 years, is still marked by reverent
pilgrims as the spot \> here the long
night of kingly prerogative was ended
by the gray dawn of the new and glorious
day of the people's rights; with i
what measure of gratitude to G!od, of )
honor to our ancestors, of patriotic gratulation
and gladuess, should we, Americans,
Carolinians, greet this spot, where
as we firmly and advised)}' believe, only
100 years ago, the first formal utterance 1
of the great idea of American indepen-,
dence was heard. i

SCIENTIFIC. 1
Steam IIill Clijibee.?-A new locomotive
for use on Ithaca Hill, N. Y., has made ;
its appearance. The incline has five
tracks, of which the two outer are of the
usual width, used in the ordinary manner.
When the engine starts up the hill, it rests !
upon a pair of rails just within the usual
track and upon a set of double flanged '
small driving wheels which are upon the
same axles with the big drivers?they be-j
ing only about thirty inches in diameter;
this inside track is raised about fifteen to
eighteen inches above the outer one, and i
high enough so that the big drivers do not j
touch the track at all; the engine rests now,
upon the small drivers, and is independent j
:>f the outer ones; then in the center of the i
track is placcd a wide cogged rail, which '
exactly uieshes into the cog wheel which is i
between these small drivers, directly under
the center of the locomotive. Thus it will
be seen that, by applying power to the big
in vers, in the ordinary way, the power is
xpplied to the cogged wheel, which does
the climbing. Tin- cogs are about three
inches from tip to tip, and the wheel is
sight inches wide. ? /

Salt.?The sea depends on the disintegration

iold it in solution as particles are liberated!
by violence, decomposition, and gradual ac-j
tion of limny natural forces. All streamlets
and rivers, therefore, are constantly
transporting salt to the sea. If there is
more than can be held in solution, then it j
accumulates in masses at very deep points.)
Thus the salt mines of Portland and the |
vast horizontal beds of pure salt in Texas,' i
is well as that mountain of rock salt in1,
St. Domingo, wera collected at the bottomj
af ancient seas, which are now dry land re- (
mote from water. There are places in Af
rica where the process of disintegration of j j
3alt from rock is regularly going on, but1 (
there is not water power enough to force it!
onward to the sou. lfeuce the particles are
spread abroad and mixed with the soil, j
The negroes in Northern Africa having discovered
its distribution where there is no
water to dissolve in the ground, leach it
In that way they scparat"* the salt. Salt!
pervades the earth. It exists in the ,
grasses and most vegetable products on'
which animals feed. In that way they de-|
rive enough in most countries to meet the!
demands of thqjr natures. They require
as much as civilized humanity. With them1,
salt is necessary, as with ourselves, for!
keeping the organs of vision in good con-;
dition. Stop the supply, ana winunesa
would ensue.
MalLrable Glass.?M. de la Bastie, a!
rich gantleman residing at his chateau in
France, with the assistance of a learned;
and experienced chemist, lias succeeded, af-j
ter a long series of scientific experiments, j
during nearly six years, in discovering ths |
process of making malleable glass, which.)
instead of being brittle, is as ductile ai'
copper or iron, Samples of it-have been
presented to scientific institutions, and the j
news of this great discoycry is spreading,
in TViliicg. Ensrlamd Prussia, and I
*- ' <-> i
America. M. do la H.istie, in order to se-!
cure for himself the benefit due to long, I
persevering and successful efforts, is form- j
ing a company, and has t,iken a patent
right for his difcovery. A large building
for the manufacture of said glass has been'
commenced at a c st of $625,006. The'
building is 163 yards iiy 160 yards in depth.'
[t has been assured that utensils, such as
frying-pans, etc., can be used on a hot'
range, and will resist the fire just as well
is iron or any other metal. Also glass
chimneys forlamps and gas burners are ,
made, and will not broak, In fact, there is
no limit to the variety of articles which1
:en be mode of malleable glass.
a iwtttittm! Water Wheel.?A man in 1
Rochester is said to have invented a min-^
iature undershot water wheel, which can
be applied to sewing machines, is so con-|'
jtructed that it can be used in any room of
a, dwelling house, and is, moreover, orna-,
mental. The wheel is a very narrow one, >
with a groove divided at regular intervals
into buckets or compartments. A cap fits
on at the point where the water is let in,:
and closing the compartment at the other
end water packs it. A stream flowing
through an aperture but one-sixteenth of
an inch in diameter, and with the pressure
derived from the Holly works, is sufficient
to run a sewing machine. In a recent ex. j
periment the wheel received the water from!
the Holly pipes through a seven-sixteenth
inch opening and ran a meat cutter with'
great rapidity. The invention can be used
in any place where the Holly water supply
system has been introduced, and is ap-'
plicable to the running of' all light ma-1
chinery.
~ . . . 77.....
a sukgkojj has lately published the re-j
6ults of experiments tried by him which j
have proved to his satisfaction that the ap-'
plication of a white-hot iron to the body is!
absolutely painless, while when only red-hot'
it is an extremely painful operation. When!
operating with a red-hot iron on men their J
screaming was fearful, whereas when the;
iron wa3 white-hot not a murmur was
heard. When he operated on a horse with!
white-hot iron, the animal seemed scarcely
to be aware of what he was doing.
According to The English Mechanic cast
iron may be best preserved from rust "by:
heating it till if touched with fat it
causes it to frizzle," and then plunging in-j
to a vat of mixed oil and grease. It is said j
I
that "the oleagenous matter actually
penetrates the pores, and prevents oxidation
for a very long time, while it does not
prevent painting, if desirable, afterward."
"AND HE WAS SO YOUNG."
He was only twent; -two, and the bloom i
of youth on his nose had scarc ely been eat- J
en into by the rust of manhood's tribula- j
tion. He was found drunk on the sidewalk,
lying on his back, arms folded across his;
peaceful breast, and the pale, cold moon |
cast a snowy shadow across his path.
"Ever here before?" asked the court.
"Never."
"And you feel powerful mean over this ?''
"I do."
"And you won't be found in such a situation
again f"
"Never."
"Well, be very careful of your conduct in j
the future young man. You are just budding
into manhood now, and if you are '
picked up drunk at twenty-two, what may
not happen to you at forty-four ? I don't j
advise you to carry an icicle around in your
pocket, or to refuse a prescription because
one of the ingredients is burnt brandy, but
as a general thing it will be best for you to
mind your own business, let intoxicating
drinks alone, and pay your board bill in
advance. This is all, sir?there's the way
out." I

A SriDJLlfS INGENUITY.
A spider com! ruclod its wel> in an angle in
of my garden, tlie sides of which were attidied
by long threds to shrubs at the
height of nearly tliree feet from the gravel ^
path beneath. Being much exposed to the
wind, the equinoctial gales of autumn last h(
destroyed the web several times. The in- ^
genious spider now adopted the contrivance
here represented. It secured a conical
fragment of gravel, with its Larger end
upward, by two cords, one attached to each p<
of its opposite sides, to the apex of its a
wedge-shaped web, and left it suspended
as a movable weight to be opposed to the 01
effects of such gusts of air as had destroyed ^
the webs previously occupying the same v(
situation. The spider must have de- et
scended to the gravel path for this special
object, and having attached threads to a hi
stone suited to its purpose, must have tb
raised this by fixing itself upon the web,
and pulling the woig.it up to a height of
more than two feet from the ground, whore
it hung suspended by elastic cords. The w
excellence of the contrivance is too evident tl
to require further comment. 02

CURE FOR HYDROPHOBIA.
The recipe is that of M. Cassar, a Fench j j'j
physician: Take two tablespoonfuls of i
fresh chloride of lime, mix it with half a i ii]
pint of water, and with this wash keep the in
wound constantly bathed and frequently
renewed. The clorine gas possesses the h<
power of decomposing this tremendous poi- ^
son, and renders mild and harmless that e3
venom against whose resistless attack the a;
artillery of medical science has been 80 i
long directed in vain. It is necessary to j a
add that this wash should be applied as ! n<
soon as possible after the infliction of the ' s?
bite. The following are the results of this I
la
treatment: From 1810 to 1821, the num? 5.
ber of persons admitted into Breslau Hospital
were 184, of whom only two died;
from 1783 to 1S24, there were admitted in- ^
to the hospital at Zurich 223 persons bitten
by different animals (182 by dogs) of j 41
whom only four died. ~
THE CHINAMAN'S NOAH. r<
F
Jt is believed that Fohi, the first King
of China, is identical with Noah. The ?.
Chinese themselves claim that Fohi has no ?
father; and Noah, although subsequent
to the flood the great progenitor of the race ?
was himself at that time fatherless. The ?
mother of Fohi is said to have borne him
encompassed with a rainbow?an evident
allusion to the bow of promise revealed to
Noah as the sign of God's covenant, q,
Fohi is represented to have reared seven' |jC
kinds or creatures, which he sacrificed to j ce
the Great Supreme. Noah also took into
ark clean beasts and fowls by sevens, which : TI
he offered to the God of heaven aa offerings;
Fohi is represented as drawing off
the waters which had deluged the earth,
thus identifying him with the flood.

GRIM ltELICS. A
A curious but sinster little collection of i ?,
curiosities is shortly to bo disposed at pub- j
lie sale in I'aris. There recently died in I
one of the narrow courts running from the ^
Place St. Jacjues a very old man named
Father Jacquet, who was once one of the tc
assistants of that famous family of execu- T
tioners, the Sampsons. It used to be his .
duty to take care of the woodwork of the ^
guillotine, the different beams, planks, tc
&c., being always left in his charge. In 2M
1832 he retired from public life, and when ^
the precious deposit was withdrawn from
him he retained various relics of his old
calling, with which he formed a little mu- ?
seum. This, however, he was very reluc- A
tant to show, and allowed but few persons
to visit it. The chief relics it contained
A
the narrow, steep stair case or eleven steps,
by which Louis XVI. assended the scaf- w
fold; a patent pulley for raising the knife ft
of the guillotine on which was engraved the ^
name of Bobespierre, and the garments ?
worn by various celebrated ..-criminals. ]y
This unpleasant museum is shortly to be si
sold by Father Jacquet's heirs. ?
