"Leave some tracts: Certainly you may," said she, looking at him most benignly over her specks. " Leave them with your heels toward the house, if you please." "Yes, sir," yelled a preacher in a Dakota church one Sunday morning, "there's more lying and swearing and stealing and general deviltry to the square inch is this here town than all the rest of the American country," and then the congregation got up and dumped the preacher out of the window. A gentleman who had been indulging the great Korth American privilege of getting drunk, says he was holding to a lamp-post, and as soon as he let go the post fell down.

Phenia Epps, of Hamilton, Ohio, asked her mother to take a note for her to a friend of the family living in a near street.

The Newburyport Hcrall relates that recently a benevolent gentleman from Vermont applied to a Boston gedtleman for aid in sending a Vermont missionary to Turkey. The reply was as follows:?"I have invested much in Vermont securities and lost many thousands by the acts of your railroad men, sustained by the people and the courts. I have also lived in Turkey, and had much intercourse with her people. I would far rather give my money to send Turks aa missionaries to Vermont." Robert Collyer says the children must have less study and more fun. He is right. There is the boy in the family across the way. Last Thursday afternoon he put a , dead mouse in his mother's work-basket, attached a split stick to the tail of tho next door cat, set the vinegar faucet up in busi- ' ness, palmed himself off as a ghost oil the hired girl when she went down cellar after the butter, besmeared his father's choice * white bantam rooster with blue ink, and finally wound up the entertainment by tying the boiler to a strange dog's tail, and slipping down in the slash, hurting his back.

' ?On December ? . u memorable fog settled | down on London. 1 atklressed a telegram to the Trinity Housa suggesting some gun*obsevvatiou9. With characteristic promptness came tin* reply that they would j be made in the afternoon at Blackwall. I ] uent to Greenwich iu the hope of hearing J the guns across the river; but the delay of the train by the fog rendered iny arrival too late. Over the river the fog was very dense, and through it came various sounds of great distinctness. The signal bell of an unseen barge rang clearly out at intervals, and I could plainly hear the hammering at Cubitt's Town, half a mils away, on the opposite side of the river. No deadening of the sound by the fog was apparent. J Through tliis fog and various local noises, Captain Atkins and Mr. Edwards heard the report of a 12-pounder cannonado with a 1-pound charge distinctly better than the Impounder with a 3-pound charge, and optically clear atmosphere, and -all noise absent, or July 3d< jjhcnomefloh for which we had Waited so long, I tried to grapple with the problem by experiments on a snmil scale. On the 10th I stationed my assistant with a whistle and an organ pipe oa the walk below the ' Southeast end of the bridge dividing Hyde Park from Kensington Gardens. From the Eastern end of the Surpentine I l.ourd distinctly both the whistle and the pipe, which produced threo hundred and eighty waves a second. On changing places with my assistant, I heard for a time the distinct blast of the whistle only. The deeper notes of the organ-pipe at length reached me, rising sometimes to great di?tinctnes3, and sometimes falling to inaudibility. The whistle showed the same intermittence as J ' ? 'vrvriAsifa fnF x<o penuu, uui ui au u^voiw uvuw ; .v. when the whistle wiis faint, the pipe was strong1, and vice versa. >To ol-tain the fundamental note of tlie pipe, it had to be blown gently, and on the whole the whistle proved the most efficient in piercing the fog.?Professor Tyndall. Fbekch Experiments with Steel.? M. Ponsard's apparatus for producing steel direct from the iron ore, as described in La Met allurgic, appears to be characterized by great symplicity, and, if the accounts of its operation be reliable, by peculiar efficiency. It consists principally of an arrangement for transforming the fuel in a series of large chambers, and of an apparatus in brick, called the recuperator wVij/.ii ranrivpR the flames from the ui uvav> i? w-? furnace, and restores the caloric in the I form of hot hair. The compartments of the chamber serve successfully for the redaction of the ore, for the reactions which are effec ted, and, finally, for the fusion of the whole charge in such a manner that the separation of the component parts is effected by the difference of density. These various phrases of the operation require very different temperatures, and the pro-1 duetion of these is the special object of the apparatus. On the side of the furnace doors the temperature is only that of red heat, while beyond the heat is so great that the eye is unable to support the intensity i of the glow ; this extraordinary heat being estimated in fact at not less than 3,632 .i^~vn~>o VnVironhoit. The result obtained! t by means of this process is considered to demonstrate the possibility of producing steel direct from the ore, without any of the transformations necessary under existing systems. CHOICE 1> l.r IKUATUKE, It has been truly observed that as a man :nay be judged by the company he keopa so he may be by the books he reads. Every book carries with it its own peculiar | atmosphere, just as does every perscn, and j it is no more possible for one to take equal j j pleasure in all books than it is to enjoy the J j society of every person one meets. There J , are some authoi-s whom, by a law of selcc- ( tion that is as commanding as instinct, wo take at once to our hearts, and delight in their companionship. There are others whom we find it pleasant to read occasion- < ally, just as we have a good many acquain tanees who are agreeable, but with whom ntimacy is neither possible nor desirable;! ami there are still others whom we would always pass by on the other side. There is no one so peculiar in his mental constitu- j 1*^ *^^4- I-.** cinr* in rr inttf.

Not j only hate wo authors for our prevailing, moods, but for every varying phase of sen- { timent and thought and aspiration we may, I if we know where to seek it, find an inter- j preter. The fact that an author is the fashion is no reason why one should keep i his company if it is found uncongenial. I There are great numbers of people who think Dickens tedious and have little relish j for Thackeray, yet who are by no means ; destitute of literary culture. To some j Ruskin is severe and harsh in his style, J while others delight in every syllable he : utters. Any one who indorses heartily the j morality of the New Testament? may be j trusted to read what ho enjoys, and rest in J the conviction that this course will educate j him up continually to higher standards.

An interviewer recently visited the Empress Eugenie for the purpose of learning something of her ideas concerning the status of Imperialism in France. Her Majesty, it appears, was slightly indisposed wher the interviewer called. Her Majesty reclined among pillows, decked with a daintj little white lace cap, with blue ribbons, anc a handsome white dress rich with lace anc and embroidery and tied at the threat witl a blue tie. A tiny table held a cup of chocolate and a silver tray of bonbons, while another Stile'table held a draught board with the men in position, which showec that she had been playing. Her Majesty we are told, smiled on seeing the interview er, and after a talk about the political sit nation, the interviewer "was permitted t< retire/' "On going out," concludes th< writer, "I turned to take a last look of th< beautiful empress, who had carried al hearts by etarzn, be they of kings or peasants. She lay back there, her rich golder V.01V 1,-vwlv raucht under the tiny, coquet tish bit of laco and ribbon, the fair fulness of shoulders and bast half revealed throng! the embroidery on her dress, and tho tow. er-like strength of her round, -white neck made more marked by the blue tie.

NATIVE CRUELTY IN INDIA. A Baroda correspondent of the Bombay Oasdtc furnishes the following remarkable, and, if true, atrocious particulars of a case of cruelty, which, he says, has created a profound sensation, as well it might. "It appears," say3 this authority, "that one of Muthor Rao's courtiers, who was in great favor with his highness, was looked upon with jealousy by some of his fellow-courtiers. So to get him into trouble with the Maharajah, they reported to his highness that the favorite had been casting amorous glances at the Queen. The poor man was then seized under?as I hear it will be satisfactorily proved?the order of the Maharajah, and cast into prison. Special fetters and manacles were forged for hiin. I have seen them. A great iron bar, nearly as thick aa your wrist and about eighteen inches long, with thick heavy rings fitting rings fitting on it for the lianas to go in to Becure his arms. These things alone weighed twenty-five pounds. An iron ring of great weight was put around his neck, and a cliain was, I believe, attached to it. Huge iron bars witff rings attached, altogether weighing thirty-five pounds, were fastened to his legs, so that it must have been impossible for the poor fellow even to walk a yard. He could neither stand, sit nor lie down. I am told the weight of the iron attached to his hands must have been almost always on his chest, tnd the iron around liis neck must have bent his body down so that his sufferings must have been terrible. "But they discovered a way of adding to ffr.r olinuk sixteen davs thev fed LiiVJill. v* ? ? ? ? him on chutney made of chillies, and gave him salt water to drink. Atthoend of this time he died. Every one who has seen these fetters feels sick at the very thought of what this poor wretch must have suffered. All this time there was no charge made against him, and there is no reason to suppose that any notice would ever have been taken of the circumstance if it hud not been for the inquiry which haa been ordered to be held." MAKING MONEY OUT OF PANCAKES. The Belfast (Me.) Journal tolls how an enterprising woman is makiug money there: "It ia not on that article of diet made by our grandmothers that we are to speak, but a. pancake of a less digestible nature manufactured at the Belfast shoe factory. Nothing in tho shape cf leather is allowed to jo to waste in that institution. Even the 3havings from the sole leather have their use, and from tliem tho puncakes are made, rhese shavings are placed upon a table before the operatives, who separate and care:ully spread them out witbin a small casting with {paste, in layers, like raisins in a uox ? first leather, then paste, and tha ivhole patted down compactly. When a :ake is completed, it is about one foot in length, four inches wide, and half an inch in thickness. They are then laid away to 3ry, and in {three or four days are ready for use, which is to be cut up into inner heel Lifts. Their manufacture is not a very pleasant job, as the girls who mako them ire up to their elbows iu piiste. When the 'actory first started, this work was given to i.bna House at four cents per cake. She jeeame so expert that she could easily make LOO per day. Being an enterprising woman, uid seeing money ahead, she closed a con xact with the proprietors for the sole manifacture, at four cents apiece, and then lireii help. To-day she has an apartment .ff the saleroom, and employs six women, ,vho turn out from 300 t j 100 a day. Al'FLK.S. The Parisians devour 100,000,000 of apples every Winter.
