LITERARY EXTRACTS. 1 ENERGY AND PHYSIQITE.—There are persons of a I nervous temperament who seem to be always f Upon wires. Nature has-given them energy; but their physique is in many cases inadequate to supply the demands made upon it. The steam is there, but the boiler is too weak. Duke d'Alva, according to Fuller, must have been of this nature. He was one of a lean body and visage, as if his eager soul, biting for anger at the clog of his body, desired to fret a passage through it." The same thought was wittily expressed by Syd- ney Smith when he exclaimed: "Why, look there, at Jeffery; and there is my little friend 1 who has not" body enough to cover his mind decently with; his intellect is improperly ex- posed." Now these are just the sort of people who should not kill themselves, for though wrapped in small parcels, they are good goods. They owe it as a duty to themselves and others not to allow their fiery souls "to fret their pigmy bodies to decay "-not to throw too much 26 ln ,°rder tllat they may have a S rC6 fr thinSs important. He who Si! 1 mnst take for his motto IIA(1 nmJi-n excess-" Such a one, as we have nf°n rnore than once to urge, avoids 1. n^any courses, goes to bed before C ° and ^0ea n°t devote his energy to v urance of over-heated assemblies.

This is the truly wise and successful man. — Chambers'* Journal. REVELATIONS OF THE MICROSCOPE.—In all crea- tures the eye is a striking object, but as seen through this instrument the eyes of insects are so peculiar as to excite our highest admiration. On the heads of beetles, bees, common flies, butter- e^' ifn(^ °ther insects, may be perceived two protuberances, which contain a prodigious num- ber of small transparent hemispheres, placed with the utmost regularity in lines crossing each other like lattice-work. These are a collection of eyes, which, like so many mirrors, reflect the images of surrounding objects. In some insects there are many thousands of them. The farina of nowers looks to the naked eye like simple dust, but when magnified it' is seen to be finely con- structed, and of great variety according to the character of the plant to which it belongs. Leaves are amongst the most delicate and gorgeous forms in nature. The leaf of the box is supposed to con- tain upon its two sides as many as 344,184 pores; and the back of a rose tree leaf looks as if diapered with silver. The cross-cut slices of plants or trees exhibit the most variegated and wonderful ar- rangement. A piece of human skin is marvellous I in its mechanism. Ten thousand of the fine threads of a spider's web are not so thick as a human hair-a fineness this which is beyond our conception. -But we must desist, although examples might be indefinitely multiplied. A small needle, highly polished, when viewed with a high magnifying power, ap- pears neither round nor flat, but full of holes and scratches, and as broad and blunt at the point as the end of a poker. On the other hand, the sting of a bee, or the proboscis of a but- terfly or a flea, appears, when examined by the microscope, to be formed with the most surprising beauty and regularity. The sting of a bee shows a polish without the least flaw, blemish, or in- equality, and ends in a point too fine to be dis- cerned. On submitting to the microscope the edge of a very keen razor, it appears as broad as the back of a very thick knife, and is rough and full of notches. The finest cambric or silk that human skill can produce resembles ill-made twine or rope, and seems scarcely fit to be used as a door mat, whereas the silkworm's web appears perfectly amooth and shining, and everywhere equal.—Good Things. BURIED ALIVE IN A COAL MINE.—Hours passed, and no relief came; The air was heavier and more oppressive than when first the shelf was cut and sealed, and the matches which at intervals old Jabez lighted, and held at arm's length be- neath him, burned dim and blue, and soon be- came extinguished. There had been some com- plaints of hunger amongst the men and lads, and a handful or two of the tobacco which some of them had in their pockets had been distributed, that the chewing of it might assuage the craving for food. But Jabez, as well as the curate, re- fused this solace. "I want to keep clear-witted, if a chance come," said the old miner gruffly; you chaps '11 need all the life you've got pre- sently." And, indeed, there was gradually forced upon the most thoughtless there a conviction that the vital energy had to fight hard, and might have to fight harder, against the baneful influence of the vitiated air. The lungs laboured fitfully, the heart throbbed with a slow uncertain beat, the blood coursed slowly and more slowly through the veins, as the atmo- sphere changed gradually for the worse. 'Twon't be clemming. We'll ne'er live to know real hunger, as when I were in Clackstone Pit Low Level thirty year agone," muttered old Jabez; and, as I said, the lasses '11 last it out the longest." It was, in- deed true that May and Laura surpassed in en- durance any of the male companions of their cap- tivity. Digby, the curate, by far the most powerful and robust of all the men there shut up, felt a strange feebleness stealing over him and benumb- ing every limb, while his brain still remained slear. 'Tis the choke rising; we mun e'en die," said Jabez Bartram, at length, with a touch of rugged dignity. "God have mercy on us in next world, for we've don wi' this, and wild and bad our lives hev been, some of us-but I be no preacher. Parson, canst say a bit prayer? 'Twould be a sort o' comfort." Digby, thus invited, repeated the words of a short and simple prayer, and sobs and broken exclamations echoed what he said. Then all was still again.—From "Paul Knox, Pitman," in Casseir* Family Magazine." SIR WILLIAM FAIRBAIRN AS A FIDDLER.—I once more commenced my studies, and proceeded to acquire a knowledge of the notes and to finger them, in which I found little or no difficulty; yet I never could attain a good bow-hand, which I afterwards found was one of the essentials for be- coming a good musician. Repeated discomiitures at last convinced me that nature never intended me for a fiddler; and, impressed with this opinion, I consulted an old man who played at weddings and other merry-makings, as to what I should do. He advised me to become his pupil, and to bring my violin with me on the following night, when he had no doubt he could after a lew lessons make me an accomplished performer, Following this advice, I repaired to his house, and after two or three lessons he offered twenty shillings for my violin, and advised me to abandon all thoughts of ever rising in the profes- sion. After some consideration I declined the offer; and having paid him for my instruction, I de- parted, under the conviction that in case the in- strument was worth twenty shillings to a person who considered himself an artist, it must be of tlie9ameif not more value to myself. Impressed with this coiiviction, the violin became my con- stant travelling-companion for a number of years. I could play half-a-dozen Scotch airs, which served as an occasional amusement, not so much for the delicacy of execution as for the sonorous energy with which they were executed. For several years after my marriage my skill was put to the test for the benefit of the rising generation; and although duly appreciated by the children, the fiddle was never taken from the shelf without creating alarm in the mind of their mother, who waa iu fear' that some one might hear it. A dancing master, who was giving lessons in tne country, borrowed the fiddle, and, to the great relief of the family, it was never returned. Some years after this I was present at t le starting of the cotton-mill for Messrs. Gros, ^eval, and Co., of Wesserling, in Alsace, where we had executed the water wheel aiad millV ork wheel on the suspension principle m 1 anco). After a satisfactory start, a great dinner v. as gn n by Mr. Gros on the occasion to the neighuoni in^ gentry. During dinner I had been explaining to Mr. Gros, who spoke a little English, the na uie of home brewed ale, which he had tasted and much admired in England. In the evening we had music, and perceiving me admire hispcrioim- ance on the violin, he inquired if I could play, to which I answered in the affirmative, when-his in- strument was in a moment in my hands, and I had no alternative but to play one of my best tunes, the Keel Row," which the company listened to with amazement, until my career was arrested by Mr. Gros calling at the pitch of his voice, "Top,. top, monsieur; by gad, dat be iioine brewed music. 7'he Life of Sir William Fairbairn, Bart., F.lt.S.- LL.D., D.C.L.

FACETLE. Shocking.—Electricity. A dentist's sign.-Drawing, music, and dancing. A Mobile paper says of a violin player in that city that "his playing would give any well- educated sawmill the toothache." What is the difference between base ball and cricket when socially considered ? One depends upon the pitcher and the other upon the bowl. If men's bodies were in proportion to the size of their souls, says the Rome Sentinel, some of our first citizens could button their collars round their boot tops. I never before saw it so quiet at the polls," recently said a reporter. How was it at the equator?" asked a bystander. The reporter couldn't respond. In one of the southern cities of the States" a barber has the following sign over his door: Cus- tomers must commence the conversation." All the other barbers are selling out. A man in Kentucky was found dead, with several bullet holes in his head, and the astute jury sum- moned to hold an inquest returned a verdict of Death from undue excitement." The unhappiest man in this republic jU3t now is supposed to be a citizen of Rochester, N. Y., whose favourite white bull-dog recently attempted to bite off a car-wheel while the train was in motion. It is thought that the meanest man on the street now-a-days is the fallow who is seen hang- ing around a band of street musicians near enough to hear the music, but far enough away to avoid the hat. "Faith," said an Irishman who could not get into his cabin at Ballingary, his wife having turned the key upon him, "it'smeself that's regularly locked in." "In!" cried his companion. "In where?" In the street." A schoolmaster told a young miss that the word "obligatory" meant binding, whereupon she laid her head upon her hand, and after a brief cogita- tion, handed the teacher this sentence: "The obligatory of my spelling-book is worn out." On the south wall of Stratham Church, there is a monument with the following in- scription: "Elizabeth, wife of Major-General Hamilton, who was married forty-seven years, and never did one thing to displease her husband!" Who .would believe that the fashion of a lady's dress, 850 B.C., was very much the same as it is now, A.D. 1876? But here is the evidence from Hesiod. In his counsels on marriage he says:— Let no fair woman tempt thy sliding mind With garments gathered in a knot behind. An old gentleman took up a patent almanac from a pile lying on a druggist's counter, at the same time asking the assistant, "Are these gra- tuitous?" to which the matter-of-fact young m; 1; replied, lllvhy, no; them's almanacs. ,Cl),n't read? A caustic old theologian once obscrveà It appears on a casual view of the world as if there were a greater number of souls originally made, and intended for human bodies; but that, at the distribution, some got three or four, and some none at all." A lady whose cook went to a wake was given notice by her a fortnight afterwards that she was going to be married. "Whom to?" asked the mistress. Please, ma'am, to the husband of the corpse." Why, does he love you?" was the next question. "Oh, yes, ma'am; he said I was the light of the funeral." Two marrows at the Felling Pit had the follow- ing conversation at their work:—" Geordie, man, aa got a bottle of whisky on Setterday, and when aa tried it on Sunday morning it was aall wetter." The same thing happened me, Tom, only dif- ferent. Ma wife bowt 61b. of beef, and when she boiled it it was all boynes! Two coachmcn meeting, one said to the other: James, vv did you leave your place at General -'s?" Well, sir," said James, loftily, "you see the general goes ban buys three 'osses without con- sultin' me, ban' hi couldn'thoverlookthehaffront." "Hof course not, James; ven they does that, vee makes nothin' hon the deal." An author having referred to the death of Louis Philippe, and his proof reading Sam Philips," instead of correcting it properly he wrote on the margin: "Who the deuce is Sam Philips?" So the paragraph, when it came out, ended: "On the anniversary of the death of Sam Philips. Who the deuce is Sam Philips?" The crime of obtaining money under fals3 pretences has greatly diminished within the last few years," said apolice justice to a country friend. How do you account for that?" asked the friend. Easily enough," replied the justice. "You see, the fact is, in these times it is almost impossible to obtain money under any pretence." A physician having been out shooting one whole morning without killing anything, his servant begged leave to go over into the next field, for he was sure there were some birds there, and, added the man, "if there are, I'll doctor them." Doctor them!" says the master; "what do you mean by that?" "Why, kill them, sir." A physician of Bath was lately complaining in a coffee-house in the city that he had three fine daughters, to whom he should give £10,000 each, and yet he could find nobody to marry them. With your lave, Doctor," said an Irish gentle- man who was present, stepping up, and making a very respectful bow, "I '11 mairy all three 0 of them!" A man who was rather rough in his manners, jocosely observed to a young lady that he was about to be married, but as his affections were divided between Miss Mary Brickdust and Miss Betsy Primestuff, he was at a loss which to choose. "I advise you, by all means, said the lady," "to take Miss Brickdust—you want polishing." "What gender is sugar?" asked a teacher of the grammar class. "What kind of sugar?" asked a boy. What kind?" repeated the teacher; what "c has that to do with it?" "Why, if it's maplo sugar its feminine gender," said the boy. Why feminine gender?" asked the teacher, with a puzzled face. Because you can't tell its age," promptly replied the boy. 0 A professor meeting a student one morning, after a high wind had blown down many trees the night before, he accosted the young man with, How d 'ye do, sir? quite a blustering wind this." Yes," answered the student, "it is a rare mathe- matical ichid." "Mathematical wind!" exclaimed the professor, "how so?" Why," replied the student, it has extracted a great many roots." An old gentleman of the name of Gould mar- ried a girl of nineteen. He wrote a letter to a friend, informing him of the happy event, and ending with this couplet:— So you see, my dear friend, though eighty years old, A girl of nineteen falls in love with old Gould. He received a reply in these terms:- A girl of nineteen may love Gould, it is true, But, believe nje, dear sir, it is gold, without U." Whilst a company of men were sitting drinking in a public-house at Newcastle the conversation began about dreams. One of the men, looking very serious, said, "Wey, lads, aa had the queerest dream last neet that ivvor aa had in ma life" "What was that, Jake? "inquired the company. "Wev, lads, aa dremt that aa was deed, an' aa dorsent for ma life waken for fear aa was!" A CHAPTER OF EARLY KENTUCKY HISTORy.-Capt. Jack Jewett, with two boon companions, was tra- velling from Virginia to Kentucky on lioiseback. Capt. Jewett was a large, fine-looking man, and a fair specimen of the kind of men that gave clia- racter to the period that embraces the early his- tory of Kentucky. As they rode along their atten- tion Was attracted by angry words from a cabin on the roadside. Words were succeeded by blows, and Captain Jewett said, "Let's ride up and see what this light is about." They galloped up to the cabin, where was a man and his better half having a set-to," and she was getting the better half of it. Hold my horse," said Jewett, and I will teach the skunk a lesson he will never for- get." At one blow of his fist the man lay pros- trate on the floor. The good wife looked at her husband a moment and then at Jewett, and then, reaching back, she caught up a large, long«-handled frying-pan, and let drive at Jewett's head. The bottom went out and the rim went over his head and around his neck, such was the force of the blow. All efforts failing to get the remnant of tin- frying-pan from around Jewett's neck he had to wear it about five miles on the road, and then r file in the hands of a blacksmitu released him We will not stop to point the niorsil.
