Natural Resources of Egypt. Egypt has but a singlo natural re source-the Nile. There is no other river in the country: nor has this one a brauch or affluent between its mouth and the Nubian deter h. Besides the almost shelterless datu-palms, there me uo palms, the few wooded parks planted hy order of Mebemet Ali, the oreumental trees of the cities, of which Cairo and its suburbs contain forty thousand, and the mulberry trees raised for silk-worms, scarcely d.e?arriug to bo meutioued in this connection. There is little or no ram, tho agriculturo of the country depending almost entirely upon tho ir rigating canals connected with the Nile. Egypt proper consists of Lower, Mid dle, and Upper Egypt. It. contains 160.8G6,5uO acres of aren, and a popula tion, in 1871, of 6,208,405. Tho arabic area of Egypt, is confined substantially to tho inundable portion of tho Valley of tho Nile. As tho river closely hugs tho hills and palisades ou its right bank, this urea is nearly altogether on tho loft. In some places tho arable lands aro eleven miles wide ; in others they dwiudlo to a mero strip of bank. For the most part, however, this area ex feuds westward from tho river about fivo to eight miles, where it is termin ated by the Libyan hills and deceit. Every year it is extended by tho riBo of tho river upon its own bed. This rise was found to be, ut the close of thc last century, 4,960 inches per century. If tho estimates worked by the kh?dive aud his relatives, or tho nobles of his court, be deducted, there will not re main in Egypt over one-half an acre of arable laud to each person ; aud even if tho laud cultivated at present were divided equally among all, there would Btill bo not over nine-tenths of an acre per capita. Imagine how small must bo tho portion of au Egyptian laborer who, if all the food products of that I hind wero kopt at homo instead of ho ing shipped abroad, us it large portion of them aro, would still possess but one-seventh tho heritage of au American or Englishman, aud but. one-fourth that of a Frenchman ! An Apparent Resurrection. Thc following is related by tho Augusta (Maine) Journal : A youug mau in tho town of Vus salboro, in this county, was suffering in the last stages of consumption, the disease which had insidiously and stealthily brought him to tho verge of tho grave. For several weeks he had been entirely prostrate and unable to sneak, even to articulate a syllable. He became so oppressed for breath that he compelled his attendants to raise the windows in his room, put out the fires, and resort, to every means to obtain fresh air. On the 13th iust. the young man died. Frieudly hands pre pared the poor, emaciated body for the burial ; but, just us tho attend i np friends wore urrtiugiug the remains for the casket, there appeared unmistaka ble evidences of returning life in what had seemed to them an inanimate mans of olaj, and it was discovered that the heart bad begun again ita slow and measured palpitations, the pulso throb bed, and the-young man arose from the deatftl^shrouds, opened his mouth, and spoke in deer and distinct words to tkoso who stood appalled in the death chamber. Tin re was no huskiness in his voice, he appeared lively aud active, said he 'cit not the slightest pain, but, to use his own language, " I feel just as wi ll af I ever did." At his request the neighbors were all called iu, who crowd ed the house for hours, declaring that the reeovory of the man was equal to any miracle recorded in tho Scripture?-. He told this startled assemblage of his friends and neighbors that, as he died, all things seemed dark, but only for an instant ; his eyes suddenly opened to a new world, the real heaven, which had been so many times in his thoughts and had given him so much comfort in bis hist week of pain and sorrow. Ho stood upon an eminence which overlooked a vast and beautiful plain ; the magnifi cent plain stretcho i farther than his enlarged vision could penetrate, and he described it in lauguago which, to his moral auditors seemed extravagant iii tho extrome. But tho revivified lifo of tho young man was not to continue long, Before night ho again resigned himsolf to doith. Tho bony was kept H reasonable length of timo nnd "nuried on Sunday last, tbo funeral being large ly attended." Pure Expression. Every word that falls from the lips of m?thor?-! aud sisters especially should bo puio and conciso and simple ; not pearls snob ns fall from the lips of a prineef-N, but sweet, good words, that little children omi gather without fear of soil, or any regret, to pain through all their lifo. Children should bo taught tho frequent uso of good, strong expres sive words--words that moan exactly what they should oxoress in their proper places. If a child, or young pr Mon, has a loone dang-together way ?>f stringing words when endeavoring to say something, bo should bo made to " tty again" and seo if ho cannot do hotter, lt is painful to hear many girls' talk. Tm-y begin with "My gracious!" and interlard it with "So sweet!" and " So queenly !" and eo many phrases, that one in temp cd lo believe they have no training at ali, or els9 their mothers ?rc very, very foolish women. There is nothing more ditgusting than tho twoddle-of ill-bred girls; ono ia pro voked often into taking a paper and reading, and letting them ripple and gurgle on, like brooks that flow thoy know not -whither. My bf art warms with love for sensible gills and pure boys, and, after all, if our girls and boya aie not this, I fear it is not our own fault-for this great trust rests in the heart and hands of the w? mcn of our land. If we have a noble, useful purpose in lifo, we shall infuse the right spirit into those around us. THE art of voicing reeds, the mo?t difficult and important in the manu facture of cabinet or parlor organ , was invented by Mr. Emtuons Ham lin, of the Mason & Hamlin Organ Co., in 1849. Io has been universally adopted by American and largely by Earopean makers, but none have at tained that high Rbtudard of oxcel li-nce in it which is reached in tho Mas-ju & Hamlin Cabinet Organs. This'. fact ia universally recognized by musicians. * CURIOUS AND SCIENTIFIC. BODS do not form wholly from hark, uor lrom any special part of a plant, though, of course, in a general way considerable regularity in fixoii places. They come out any where along a willow stem ; and, although they appear in the apple from tho axil of n leaf, they ure formed any-where along the surface of a root of an apple when they are propagated from tho roots, as by nur serymen they often aro. Again, in the i horse-chestnut a growth never appears 1 except from au auxiliary or a terminal ' bend iu ordinary cases ; but if a branch i be cut off betweeu tho nodes an im- 1 menee number of young buds will np- 1 pear from tho now cells which form the j new Inver of wood on the exposed sur- j fncc. Some curious casos aro also re- ] corded by Dr. Masters, whero bnds aro i formed in tho pith of a potnto. In j some instances several small potatoes have been found inside largo ones, , from buds which have developed thore. i EVERY action and emotion depletes tho physical system. Milk, tho first food absorbed by men and animals, is ( tho only natural mixture, containing , all the elements of blood savo tho 1 coloring. Water constitutes three fourths of tho body. To work well, either physically or mentally, we must be fed judiciously and thoroughly. Tho worker must eat mixed-food. Food properly administered stimulates the system as wine does, only more natu rally. Tho long night hours empty tim ste mach, doploto the system, and chill tho body. On arising tho physical condition is low, and should be re cruited. If we ioso time at early morning in brincii g the body up to its natural heat and itrength, wo cannot regain it during thc day. A health} maa requires about ono pound of nu triment per day to keep him iu good condition. While a workingman would need daily livo pounds of solid mixed food, two and a half would be enough for persons who lonugo and Bleep much. Icc In the Arctic Regions. The precise object of tho Am-lrian Polar expedition wns not particularly ihat of veacbiDg high latitudes, but of exploring the large unknown sea north of Siberia. For a year and a half the explorers had constant opportunities closely to observe the behavior and formation of the packed ico. The phe nomenon is instructive, as it is the same in the whole of the Arotio regions. With the exception of land-ice, which chugs to the coasts and never reaches far out into the sea, all ice-icebergs as well as fields-is in constant motion, winter and summer ; and this, as has been shown, is through the influence of wiuus. The motion, however, iti a different on?, almost with every field, and thus a certain pressure results wherever two fields touch; this natural ly leads to the breaking np of the fields, and the contraction of the ice, during sudden low temperature plays its part in a similar way. If one c nsiders the great extent of fields, sometimes of many miles, and their enormous masses, one can easily imagine the colossal forets whioh are ac'ive in these phe nomena, and the greatness of their ef fects. When two fields meet, a combat body to body ensues, often lasting only a few minutps, but sometimes even for days and weeks. The edges are then turned up on both sides, upwards and downwaids, un irregular wall of ico con sifltiog of wildly mixed blocks begins to build itself, the preamro increasi s more and more, masses of ice eight feet long and broad are lifted thirty to forty feet high, and then fall to make room for others. At last one of the fields begins to shift itself for some distance uudernentk tho other one ; often they separ?te for a while, only to renew the str.iggle. Bnt thc end of it always is that tbe intense cold unites them all into one solid mass ; a singlo field re sults from tho two, and the next storm or quick ?'.hange of temperature cracks the new. fi.dd in sonic other direction, the pieces ronowing the old struggle. This is the origin of the ice-fiehls, which are quito irregular above anil Inflow, sometimes only consisting of blocks that have frozen together, and filling up the wholo arctic region as so culled pack icc. OOH TI?MJ-TATJK "LIPS.-I have ob served that lips beoome more or less contracted in ibo course of years, iu proportion ns thoy aro accustomed to exprcsB good humor and generosity, cr peevishness and a contracted mind. 1 lanark the effect which a moment of ill-temper or grudgingneBs has upon tho lips, and judge what may bo ex pected for an habitual series of such movemonts.

Tho month is tho scat of ano class of emotions, as tho oyes are )f another ; or, rather it oxpressc-j the lame emotions, but in greater detail, md with n moro irrepressible tendency o be in motion. Tt is the region of mules and dimple, and of a trembling wilderness ; a slu.rp sorrow, or a full ireathing joy ; of candor, of reserve, if anxious caro, or liberal sympathy.

DISCOVERY.-It is liai med thnt disease, with a few ex :ep!ions, bas been conquered by the research and intellect of enlightened men ; and yet a noted professor of Now ?orkadmits that "of all sciences, med icine is the moBt unceitain," and that "thousands are annually slaughtered in the sick room." Certain "schools" )f medicine are in existence, one of fdnort ' "lakes tho patient ill," in or lor to cairn a cure; and another ad ministers "sugar-coated bread pills," .elying upon nature to effect h sr own ?ires. Dr. J. Walker, of California, in old and respected pnysioian, tried loth modes of treatment and both ailed. Ho then appealed to nature's mratrvje- herbs; and now enjoys rug ged health. He has given tho benefit if bia discovery to the world, in the shape of Vinegar Bitters, and since its introduction has sold a quantity almost large enough to make a small harbor, or to float tho "Great Eas tern." Its curative properties are at tested by grateful thousands. Tit* .* ?uunckecpor ?> oi our Hcaiih. Tho livor ia tho groat depurating or blood cleansing organ of tho Bystom.
