THE custom of appointing men for pall-boarers comes from the Romans. Julius COesar had magistrates for his pall-bearers. Augustus Cosar had Sen ators. Viicnow, an eminent German anato mist, has written a treatise on the well authenticated cases of human beings with tails. He says an infant, born at Aldenburg, had a tail whose movoments were under its control, though it -was usually doubled up like a pig's tail. THE word " thoroughbred " does not mean an animal of pure blood, that is unmixed ; it is used to designate animals raised from the best blood, but origin ally derived from a mixture of races. A pure or full blood is an animal whose pedigree is clear, and which was bred without admixturo from the same source, as a pure Clydesdale horse. A thorough bred may also be a pure blood, but not necessard y so. IN the reign of Georgo I. the Rajah (or Prince) of Bengal, In(lia, marched suddenly to Calcutta to drive the En glish from the country. As the attack was unexpected the English were de feated and 146 persons were taken pris oners. They were driven into a place about 18 foot square, and 15 or 16 feet high, with only two small grated win dows. This is what is known in history as the " Black Hole of Calcutta." One hundred and twenty-threo of the prison ers (lied in one night, suffocated in a few hours from confinement in this close, hot prison-how, the oxygen of the air being soon con umed by so many lungs, and its place supplied by carbonic acid exhaled by the hot breath. The victims all died sleeping, because the carbonic acid gas, being a narcotic poison, pro <itees drowsiness and death in those who inhale it. Of the twenty-three who sur vived, the larger portion died of putrid fevers after they were liberated. TiHE national anthem, " The Star Spangled Banner," was written by a Baltimorean, in Baltimore, and put in type by a Baltimore boy, in the offie of the Baltimore A mecrican, on the unight of the bombardment of Fort Me Henry. Francis Scott Key, under the protection of a flag of truce, went on boardl the cartelhlipJ Me1nden to en docavor to procure the release of a friend oft his, who had been captured by the British. For fear the intended attack nlpon the city would be divulged by him, M~r. Key was detained a prisoner, and, during the conflict, the poeCm was com posed, notes of it being wvritten upon the back of an old letter. When lie wvas re leased he wrote out the song in full, and by the advice of his uncle, Judge Nich olson, had it sent to the printer. It was t:tken to the American oflee ; the men were all in the army, and to Mr. Samuel Sands, then an ollice-hoy 14 years of a&ge, and now the veteran editor of the .1 nu rienn P~armer, was the copy hand edi to he set upl. He set it upl, printed it~ and distributedl it among iho people. Sekt to music, it was first sung in a res tauraa~t next to the Holliday Street The ater, by Charles Durang.

In the morning he drawvs his salary, and in the eveng behold it is all gone. It is a tale that is told, it vanisheth, and no one knoweth whither it goeth. He riseth up clothed in the chilly garments of the night and seeketh the somnolent paregoric wherewith to heal the oolickry bowels of his infant offspring. He im itateth the horso or ox, and draweth the chariot of his posterity, He spendeth his shekels in the purchase of fine linen and, purple to cover the bosom of his family, yet he himself is seen at the gates of the city with one sunspend~er. He cometh forth as a flower,, and is ont down, There is hope of a tree when it is out dowhi that the tender roots thereof will sprout again, but man goeth to his home, and what is he then ? Yea, he is altogether wretched.-Nash vylle Banner. A Narrow~Escape oa~Buggy.

Why is it that, in a majority of eases, the newspapers, in recording anything A rtaining to continental countries that volves a mention of weights or measures, employ the terms used by the metric sstem ? The metric system is undoubtedly the best one in use, but, unfortunately, it is not thoroughly un derstood county, and the general- te i of readers are al at saa regarding w the significance of the word. If an American take any interest in a German e flagstaff, he wants to know how many tr feet high it is; or if he desires to know w the weight of a French pig, pounds alone will convey the desired information to his mind. If he is obliged to read of meters and kilogrammes, he utterly fails s to grasp the idea. The staff may be miles high, and the pig may weigh tons, for all he knows to the contrary. Much the same may be said of the em ployment of words and phrases in a foreign lan guage. No Amorican is so cultured that he cannot understand at least equally kr well an idea conveyed in plain king's English, with this exception, that there are words and phrases in foreign tongues that are practically untranslatable, and whose force would be lost in an attempt to rendor them into English. .But these words and phrases are generally familiar, o1 and in common use in English conversa- tr tion. Such words and phrases are of B1 course allowable. But the use of a '] French phrase that can be understood se only by one versed in the French lan- ul guago is snobbish. The journalist who of indulges in the practice of peppering his o1 manuscript with foreign words run a tl great risk. The intelligent compositor ai may make sad work of his best efforts, o1 and it is dangerous to repose unlimited la confidence in the proof-reader. It is no h6 evidence tohe mind of the reader that H the writer is possessed of any particular ac erudition because he' is able to handle w Latin, Greek and French freely. Any- w body, with a 'ictionary of those lan- I guages at his albow, can do the same. What the general reader wants is a plain story, plainly told, in words that he can b understand. -Boston Buact.

It is sometimes absolute torture to a del- b icato child to maintain the stiffness and stillness enjoined by the foolish teacher.

PROFESSOR AnEXANDER WILSON, Of Dublin, has calculated the amount of sugar contained in the calyces of differ ent kinds of flowers, and tho proportion of honey which insects can extract from it. He calculates that about 125 clover blossoms contain one gramne of sugar. As each blossom consists of about sixty. calyces, at least 125,000 by 60, or 7,500, 000 calyces, must be rifled to afford a kilogramme of sugar, and as honey con tains 75 per cent, of sugar, it requires 5,600,000 calyces of clover to yield a kilogramme of the former. Hence we may imagine the countless numbers of flowers that bees must visit to Ie able to stock their hives with honey. THER are 16,000 oystermej in Vir. PERILS OF THE DEEP.
