A TIMELY SHOT.
by non it it ntAitnucK.
In tho year 1*10, the Knglinh sloop*
of*w«r Cad ton, after cruising snenom,
(ally nguinst tho vessel* of tlm French
lay anoiiorril off Calcutta.
Boon after tho nnchor was down, a
floo young sailor, mimed Henry Mel
ton, a man of roflnomotit and education,
who, however, had shipped ns a fore
mast hand, made application to the
captain for permission to go ashore to I
visit Ids old mother, who, anticipating 1
tho vessel's airival at her present port, |
had suited in a trading-vessel all th< !
way from England to Calcutta for the J
sake of seeing her son.
Too ill to go nhonrd the sloop, she !
had sent word to Henry of her urrlval, I
bogging him to come to her.
Old Oapt. Knowles, of tho vessel, was
a strict disciplinarian. Although Ids
beautiful daughter Hylveen, a girl of
eighteen, who hud joined her father at
a Hpuninh port, whero she had boon
staying with her brother, besought her
stern parent to grant tho sailor'n re
qa*st, yet it was decidedly refused.
The oonsoquonco win' that Henry
Melton, who hud finally learned that
his mother wan not expected to live,
deserted on a certain dark nigld, in a
bout in whioh ho went shIioto from the
war vessel, us one of tho er.jw, for pro
visions.
J tie young man wan jest in time to
reoeivo his mother's la » M •ssing, and
to close her eyes in d-ath. Ho had
with him a sum of money ; a part of
this ho took to an Lulixli merchant
of whom his mother had hired her
lodgings, and from whr in ho obtained
a promise that the remain* of Ida parent
should ho decently b iriod.
With tho cash fie had left, ho pur
chased a small pistol, which ho loaded
with powder and hull, and conceded in
a soon t pocket of Ids jacket.
The instrument wm one of the best
of Its kind. Herbert, in Ids prosperous
days, had taken lessons of a ool oh r atari
professor of pistol practice, who hud
not only taught him how to always iiit
Ida mark, but also how to cliooso a
good weapon.
Ho know that he would ho arrested,
ftnd ho condemno i either to a flogging
with tho fearful "oat o'uino tails" or to
death, for Ida desertion.
Hhould tho sentence agidnst 1dm
prove txi ho inmishinent with the lash,
ho now had with him tho moans of
avoiding if.
Bonner than suffer thn disgrace of a
flagging, he would shoot himunlf
through tho bond witli Ids pistol.
He resolved to endeavor to avoid
capture until his mother was buried,
that he might’at least have the satisfac
tion of seeing that cold form deposited
in its llnul rcHtiug-pIaoo.
Ho, therefore, struck far out into tho
country, and finally oonnonlod hiniBolf
in a cavern.
Toward night of tho next day, who
should pass his retreat hut tho captain
and his daughter, who had boon out
all day, oooompaniod by guides, for a
•troll V
Unfortunately for Henry, there was
with the party a small dog, which, soon
discovering tho young man, set up a
loud harking.
The eaptain, with his Hindoo guides,
attracted to tho oavo by tho nolso, saw
the sailor.
" Ha I" exclaimed the old eoinmaud-
or. "Hn here we are I Arrest him,
guides I II i is one of my men a do-
sorter ?”
Melton was soon a prisoner.
" How far are wo from tho oily ?” in
quired C.iptaiu Knowles of one of the
guides,
" Mix mllos,” was the response.
"Thou we will pitch our tents in that
plain yonder, and encamp for tho night.
Koon u good watch on tho prisoner,
guidon."
"Oh, papa," pleaded Hylveen, with
toors in hor beautiful blue eyes, "let
him go."
" Humph I" ci mvlcd tho captain. "A
pretty navy weM have of it.! we took
tho advice ot the women. No, mii'nm,
that man muat not go. Ho )m* . t> <1
in time of war. lie will tie shot.'
The tents were anon pitch** i by some
of tho gnidos, who curried canvas mid
blankets.
Though much fatigued, yet Hylvoou
could not sloop for thinking of the
priaonor.
His calm, handsome fuco, showing
neither fear nor bravado, when her
father had mentioned his destined fate,
haunted liar mind.
Through a crevice in the tent, she
could now see him standing composed
and oheorfublooking, out tlioro in the
dear moonlight, amongst his dusky
guards.
At last the young girl dropped to
deep. At dawn she was awakened by a
strange feeling of oppression hi her
oliost,
A thrill of horror wont through her
frame. Motionless — apeeohl s*. with
fear who lay, at sight of a hideous-
looking serpent ooiled upon her breast!"
k about four foot ionp,
Tho
ifs folds wound up m three rings,
the center of which was its head,
slightly elevated, its two glittering eves
tinned full upon her face, it a lin ked
tongue tnoviiw hack and forth with '
lightning rapidity in its hslf-opened I
mouth 1
Him body was a dark color, and ha 1 '
the appearance of being covend all
over with slimy-looking spots of scales.
I uder the throat were two stringy up '
pondages like immature hammocks to |
that part of the creature, and mldiug
to the uncouth aspect of the reptile,
Hylveen hud heard descriptions
enough of this fearful post of li dm, to
realiau at a glance, that her terrible
visitor wan the terrible cobra <t> «•«.
one of the most venomous of the
serpent tribe.
What could she do?
The slighest ory—tlio feeblest move-!
ment on her part would insure her de
ft tx notion.
The erenturo had its gsao upon her.
ftud tho moment she should stir it
would doubtless thrust it* horrible
head again at her face or neck and make
her feel the fatal bite of its lHiisonoua
fangs
buuroely daring to breathe, she lav, :
keeping even her eyelids steadv, while
ucxdd perspiration bathol he' brow,
and her heart beat loud and fast with a
wild terror that almost deprived her of
ooum*iousiit*ss.
Meanwhile, outside the tent she
could hear tho voices of her father and
the guides, us they moved to and fro.
ignorant of her piriloua position.
Would they never oome? Vainly
she listened for her father's approach-
mg footsteps. Several times she saw
his sliudow across tho threshold of the
teni, aiul once she beheld his nnu ; blit
he did not outer.
Suddenly the serpont elevated its
head higher thau before, Tho beating
of her heart, the htaving of her brenet.,
which stie could not suppress, had
probably roused the creature to action.
Slowly the head waa thrust forward,
then its slimy touch was on her flesu—
lay nestled on her white throat« In a
few moments she would probably feel
•ts horrid fangs 1
*T list then her father looked in the tent.
He saw tho serpent nt once— at once
realised tho peril of his child. An in-
voluntanr cry escaped him. The Hin
doo guides were soon at his rule.
They looked hopelessly at • heir mus
kets and their knives. T a y could
neither cut nor shoot the ser|*ent, lying
* • closely against (lie girl, without mor
tal! r wounding her.
For thorn to attempt to sei/,i the crea-
tii e with their hands must also prove
utaUto the young woman. Tic mo
ment they touched it, it would oite her
throat.
W/int wan to be done? How was the
serpent to bo removed ?
Not one of them conid think of any
idon, and the old captain wrung hia
In- ds in silent agony, believing that tho
fate of bin child was scaled.
Suddenly Henry Melton inadn hi« ap
pearance nt the door of the t nt. The
guides and the captain, in their trepi-
dation and alarm, had forgotten him.
Ho might have escape], had he so
wished.
the moment he beheld Hylveen’s
situation, bin eyes gleamed with a cold,
steady glitter, Tho girl lay on her hack,
her right side toward tho door of tho
ten*. In this position her throat, with
the head of tho serpent nestled tipsn it,
was distinctly roves I mJ,
Henry raised his left arm, as a sign to
the party to make no noise. With his
right ho drew Ids pistol.
"HoldI" whispered tho captain, seiz
ing liis wrist. " H yo i lire at the ser-
p nt you will kill my child I" *
"I will save her," » nswored Melton.
" My Ood I I conm t risk it! Your
bullet will fnil—it must fail, with tho
sorpi nt right on her I"
" Have no fear, sir I" answered Mel
ton, calmly.
Ho looked so confident that tho cap-
fain, whohsd heard that ho was a "crack
shot ” from some of the midshipmen
aboard, lot go of his wrist.
Thin kneeling, Henry leveled his
pis'ol straight at the sorpent's bead,
whioh still rested on tho girl'a throat!
Tlioro was a moment of foarful sus
pense. Tho gnides shook tlioir heads
s domnly, believing tliut tho young
woman's doom was sealed; and tho cap-
lain wns about seizing Henry's arm
again, vhen a fiery streak of flume
leaped from the pistol, followed by a
sharp, ringing peal!
Palo an douth, tho captain rushed to
his daughter. Henry smiled.
Tho s rpent lay dead on tho ground,
Its head crushed by tho bullot, whioh
had not oven grazed the throat of Hyl-
" Ho has saved yon I" cried tho old
oaptaifi, straining tho girl to his bosom.
"Yes, papal On, papa, now Have him,
too !"
Tho captain did so. Henry was par
doned for hia temporary desertion. In
tho courso of time ho hoonmc an officer,
nad married Hylveen.
Tho Situation To-Day.
One of tho church of tho dishonor
now cant on manual, especially agricul
tural, labor, the Now York Herald tolls
us, is traceable to tho education of our
young. Tho academician in truiuml for
tho college or tho nuiveraity, and the
collegian is trained with aspirations for
the learned professions, the bar, tho
pulpit, politics medicine or science.
They fool that it would ho a waste of
talent and a desecration of genius to
step from tho university hall to the
plow, tho loom or the anvil. Hence the
crowded proNssions, in whioh hundreds
aro reduced to tho starvation point and
from which hundreds arc annually
forced to seek for bread by recourse to
now and adventurous occupations. As
it has been so forcibly said, the name
recoiling from hand labor lends thou
sands to rush into uimuuunerative and
prooarions clerkships and paltry com
mercial enterprises for whioh there is
no demand, while tho soil of tho earth
is lelt half tilled ami its mines un
opened.
In conjunction with those falso al
lurements from the show hut sure paths
of agricultural and mining industry tho
civilization of the century has added
another disturbance of labor. Tho fas-
oiuntiouftof the large cities, their ox-
oi turnout a and their luxuries, have at
tracted thither theiisauda who are use
less and dangerous because idle ele
ments of society. One of our city
contemporaries has strikingly remarked
that tueio were many inon who woulp
not leave New York for scarcely any
pecuniary inducement, and multitudes
who preferred acuity wages hero to a
midi deucy elsewhere. It is safe to say
that if oue-hnlf of thn young and able
bodied men now ouguged iu non-pro-
duolive commercial ventures mid who
overcrowd the mercantile aiul profes
sional vocations Hhould turn their toil
and talent to tillage and milling, the
whole aspect of atlairs in the country
would be speedily chanced for the bet
ter. In tune of war tint hardy and
the young go to the frout, and so in a
national situation like the presont the
same classes must do the actual battle
with the rough forces of nature, leav
ing to the starving women aiul poor in
dustrious girls the miuor and lighter
ora ft a, which are How too much monopo
lized by robust hoys and stalwart men.
Eiubaliniug.
Artificial means to resist decay have
been used from time immemorial. Tho
Egyptian method of embalming was an
expensive and elaborate process, and,
as we all knew, was exceedingly Bins
ccssful. Modern methods have also
been carried to an extreme state of per
fection, chiefly by the ltaliaue. Indeed,
the body Ol one of their pa*riots—Maz-
zioi, 1 think it was—was so successfully
embalmed, changing his body into
material resembling sto.ie, that his
economical admirers prop sed to set
it up at Milan as a statue > f himself.
Tables formed of human muscles,
highly polished, wore exhibited at the
V.ounu exposition. A very prrfeot and
ingenious machine for cmb.vwiug
is.du8, the invention of a Krntuokiau,
" i' shown at our exposition lost year.
In it tho body is exposed to a reverber-
a*ieg air bind, by which it is dried,
Htn-i which antiseptic vapors are forced
in’o it. A less elaboratn and highly
i III Ment method, being the one now
e. icily in use, is the injection iuto the
arteii* s of certain antiseptic solutions,
such as arsenic, chloride of ziuc, etc.
It is worthy of note that, in all efforts
at embalming, though decay is arrested,
the features are but poorly preserved.
Nothing cm restore the luster of the
eve, or relieve the cold, expressiouless

Elements of the Btm and Stars.
J. Norman Lookycr is engaged in a
scries of spectrosoopio investigations in
regard to the constitution of the heaven
lybodies which neom to promise start
ling discoveries in rogard to the mole
cular thoory. To a communication to
Nature on the subject he says : "The
spectroscopic evidence os to what may
ho called the plasticity of Che molecu
les of tho metalloids, including of course
oxygen and nitrogen, but excluding hy
drogen, is so overwhelming that even
thn absorption of iodine, although gene
rally it is transparent to violet light,
rnny (as I have found in a repetition of
i Dr. Andrews’s experiments on the di-
! ohroisin of iodine, in which I observed
the spectrum) in part lie driven into
the violet end of the spectrum, for
! iodine in n solution iu water or aloohol
at once givos np its ordinary absorp
tion properties, sml stops violet light.
A preliminary comparison of the ordi
nary absorption spectrum of a stratum
of six feet of chlorine rouders it not
i improbable that chlorine at a low tem
j nerature is tho # cause of some of tho
' Fraunhofer lines in tho violet, although,
ns said before, I have not yat obtained
certain evidence as to the reversal of
the bright lines of chlorine soon in the
jar-spark. There is also an apparent
coincidence between some of the faint
Frauenhofer lines and some of the lines
of tho low temperutnro ab*orptiou-speo-
tmm of iodine. Should subsequent re
searches strengthen the probability of
this working hypothesis, it seems pos
sible thut iron meteorites will he asso
ciated with tho metallic stars, and atony
meteorites with metalloids! and com
pound stars. Of thn irop group of in -t-
als in thn sun iron and nickel are those
which exist in greatest quantity, as I
have determined from the number of
lines reversed. Other striking facts,
such ns the pseneuee of hydrogen in
meteorites, might also bo referred to.
An interesting physical speculation con
nected with this working hypothesis is
the effect on the period of (juration of a
star's heat whioh would be brought
about by assuming that the original
atoms of whioh a star is composed are
possessed with the inoronseil potential
energy of combination whioh this hy
pothesis curious them with. From the
earliest phase of a star’s life the dissi
pation of energy would, us it were,
tiring iuto play a new supply of heat,
and so prolong tlm star’s light. May it
not also he that ’if chemists taka up
this question which has arisen from the
speotrosoopie evidence of what I have
before termed tho plasticity of tho mo
lecules of the metalloids taken as a
whole, much of the power of variation
which is at present accorded to metala
may be traeod homo to tho metalloida?
I need only refor to the fact that, so
far oe I ran learn, all Ko-aallod changes
of atomicity take place whim metalloids
are involved, and not when motels alone
are iu question. As instances of these
I innv refer to the trintomio combine
thins formed with chlorine, oxygen,
sulphur, etc., in tho case of tetrad or
hexed metals. May we not from these
ideas he justified in defining a metal,
provisionally, as a substance the ab-
Horptiou-apeetriim of which is general
ly the sumo as the radiation-spectrum,
while thn metalloids aro substances tin*
uhsorptiou-Npoctrutn of which gcuornl-
)y is not the same? In other words, in
piiBsing from a cold to n comparatively
not state the plasticity of these latter
comes into play, and we get h new mo-
locular nrrungement. Hence are we not
justified iu asking whether the change
from oxygen to ozone is hut u type of
what takes plaoo iu ail metalloids?"
Thy Naim*.—'Wo have taken tha
troublo, in extensive trips over tho
country to make some inquiries about
certain fruit trees whioh attracted at
tention on account of their thrift and
j fruit-hearing qualities. They were
fresh and vigorous, while all around the
other trees were decaying or dead. In

Trees seleotsd at random and treated iu
this way always turned out to ho
healthy, vigorous and excellent fruit- I

fruit. Tho reason why the worm will
not attack the tree is because tho oxyda-
tiou or rusting of the iron by the sup

arises, will of oottroe impregnate everv
