One day two residents of Deal’s
Island. Md., were oat fishing. They
had paddled and rowed in the hot sun
all the jtfternoon without even getting n
nibble. They had just anchored to try
their luck again when Rev. Joshua
Thomas, the famoox Methodist minister,
came paddling along In his canoe. Now
it seemed as if one of the men had long
been the subject of the reverend gentle
man's prayers, without avail, however.
As he came op he saluted them wi h
“Well, brethren, what luck?” “Bad
enough, Pa->on Tb6m*<», bail enough,”
replied one of the men. The other
called out in a joking ways “Now, look
yer. Parson Thomas, you pray an’ we'll
fish.” “ Donef" quickly reapouded the
good man. k
He tied his ’canoe to a post and went
down on his knees. Over went their
lines. Tbe parson poured forth his
prayers in earnest, not forgetting to
put in a word for the salvation of the
souls of the men. Presently, excited
and stofku riaatiar Me of the men
straightened himself up and exclaimed:
Stop right that, Joshua Thomas; I've
got a bite; i’Udine youroongregation.”
Sore enough the first fish for that day
was a large sttnperch, honestly believed
to have boeh caoght under the inspira
tion of that prayer—on (Del.)

Restoring Faded Ink.
A valuable diaoevery baa been recent
ly made, whereby the faded ink on old
parchment* may be so restored as to
render tbe writing perfectly legible. The
process consists in moistening the paper
with water, and then passing over the
line* in writing a brash which baa been
dipped in a solution of sulphide of am
monia. The writing wi l immediately
quite dark in color, and this
; in tbe case of parchment, it will
preserve. Records which weae treated
in this way in tbe Germanic Sfaseum in
Narembnrg ten years ago are still in tbe
same condition as immediately after tbe
application of tbe prooeas. On paper,
however, the color gradually fades again;
bat it may be restored atpleeimre by the
ioa'ion bf tbe sulphide. The ex-
anation of the action of this substance

or Siberia. The water is fifty fathoms
deep, and the bed of the ocean is of
slay. Bowlders weighing eight hundred
>r 1,000 pounds are dredged up. Prof.
Verrill believes that they are brought
lown by icebergs from' the arctic re
gions and dropped whto the ice melt*.
Tiie bowlders are found as far south as
Ixmg I timid. Further out to sea, aev-
?nty to one hundred and twenty miles
•onto from the southeastern coast of
New England, the bottom of the sea,
which has inclined very gradually east
ward. forming a table land, takes asud-
len dip downward, so that whereas tif*
water on the edge of the bluff is one
hundred fathoms deep, at the Bottom of
the basin it is 1,000 fathoms deep. The
slope is, M high and as steep os
Mount Washingtoii, find on ita summit,
which is level, a diver, could he go to so
low a depth, could not put out his hand
without touching a living creature. The
bottom of the sea is covered jnst there
with A ffiuua which has never been be
fort founu Otitside of the Mediterranean
Sea, the Gulf of Mexioo, the Indies, or
ather tropical regions. The number of
•pccies of fish dredged up is eight hun
tired, and over half of^hem have never
before been seen by naturalists. Seventy
kinds of fish, ninety of Crustacea, and
two hundred and seventy mollusks have
been added to our fauna. The age of
manv of the specimens shows that they
must be permanent in that region. The
trowel let down from the ships by a
mile of rope brings up a ton of livihg
*tnd dead crabs, *hrimp, star fish,' and
as the trowel simply scrapes over a small
surface, the] ocean bed it plainly car
peted wi»h c.eatnres.
Sharks are seen by thousands In this
region, and countless dolphins* bat it
scents strAngd that not a fish bone is
ever dredged up. A piece of wood may
be dredged uo once a year, but it u
honeycombed by the boring shell fish.
This shows what aestroction is con
stantly going on In those depths. If a
ship sinks at sei^ with all on bofird it
would bo eaten up by fish with the ex
ception of tbe metal, and that would
corrode and disappear. Not a Done of
a human body would remain after a few
dayi. It ii a constant display of the
law Of ihC survival of the fitt* t. Noth
ing-made by tbe hand -if man was
dredged up after cruising for months in
the track of ooean vessels excepting coal J
clinkers shoved overboard from steam-
sbipi. Hero Prof. YnrriW eorreexed*
himself. Twenty-fire miles from land
he d, edged up an India rubber doll.
That, he said, wa* one thing the fish
could not eat.
Here the Gulf Htreaaa is forty miles
further west than anpuiap shoWs, Prof.
Verrill continued; and this stream of
warm water from the south nourishes
tbe tropical life near Massachusetts.
The temperature further la shote is
thirty-five dog. In August, on the edge
of the submarine > fount \Y a* bin gum
fifty-two deg., and toward the bottom of
the basin thirty-nine deg., while further
out to sea the temoeraturc of the water
K w» colder. C’n the surface the jelly
, uautilus, and the Portuguese man-
of-war, with other tropk-ti fish are
found. Lu this belt the til* fi"h, about
which so much was said a year ago,
#ere found in immense quantities, bu»
this summer, although evpeditionA
have been made for the express pur
pose of catching some, not ^ne could be
taken. Undoubtedly they had beeu
killed, to a fish, by a storm which car
ried the oold water into the Gulf Stream;
indeed, It is known that a cold current
of water resting on the ocean's bed may
con tain arctic fish, and a current of
warm water floating over it on the sur
face may be alive with tropical fish.
A* to the quantity of light at the bot
tom of the sea there has been much dis
pute. Animals dredged from below
•evsn hundred far.tmnu fliLher have mi
eves, or tains, indications of tnera. or
else their eyes ate very large and pro
truding. Crab’s eyes are four or five
times as large as those of a crab from
surface water, which shows that that
liffht Is feeble, ami that eyes io bo of
any use must be very large and sensi
tive. Another strange thing is that
where the creatures in tho*e lowct
depths have any color, it is of orungt
or red, or reddti-h orange. Hea ane
mones, corals, shrimp, and crabs have
ibis brilliant color. Sometimes if i.»
pure red or scarlet, ojid in many speci
mens it inuiinos toward purple. Not a
green or blue fish is found. Thfi orange
rod is the fish’s protection, for the
bluish-green light in the bottom of the
ocean makes the orange or red fi*h ap
pear of a neutral tint, and hide* it from
enemies. Many animals are black,
others neutral in color. Some fish are
provided with boring lails, s i that they
can burrow in tho mud. Badly, th!'
surface of the submarine nfftmtain v
covered with shells, like an ordinary sea
beach, showing that it is the eating
house of vast schools of carnivorous
animals. A codfish takes a whole oyster
into it* mouth, cracks the shells, digests
the meat, and spits out the rest. Crabs
crack the shell* and suck out the meat.
In that way o-mte whole mounds of
shells that are dredged up.

Judge of the Superior Coart of Califor

of rivQi at on, . tender, delicate and
nervotts children must Suffer terribly by

hearted motl ciB—wotoert who hope of
Heaven when they die. Who is there In
all the/brood land who doe* not recol
loot as among th* crudest agonies of
his ch ldhood the ra-ih and rcekle-s
combing of the Jhtadr W* have seen
children undergoing untoid agony from
kind mothers, Sisters and friends, with
tears streaming from their eyes and
agonizing but half suppres ed screams,
enough, one would suppose, to chlUthe
blood or i-tay the hand of a a. vago
Merciful and kind ia other respects, but
rake after rake is continued until we
have no doubt the little ones suffer ten
times more a oily than persons who are
hung or racked An 1 there Is neither

Or they hove piilled and broken
in their own liaic Until their heads have
become wffTbus to pain from hair
pulling, until they have not the least
appreciation of the terrible suffering
they intiict on their innocent children.
-Some women, to avoid trontilc, cruelly
cut off the noblest crown of beauty a
little girl ever had- her hair, and make
her such a fright that ho wonder tho
mother loses ml tender fefellng for her.
But we beg'jpr tlie sweet* Intie girls'
lovely locks. And we plead for tnem
to be varied from the necessary torture
in'.icle 1 upon such lovely flowers. We
fear that in the world to come, some
mothers will meet, unexpectedly, the
weeping and wailing of tortured chil
dren. who have su’erol more than
death two or throe times a week from
unthoughtful mother*. Do spare the
innocents. Have Wore pat once. The
recollectbn of these, innocently in ’icled
tortures have followeiT us for seventy
yea s, nnd wo ask that the present in
lantilo generation be spared.—/euxi
