Transplant her into the dark places of the earth, call all her energies into action, mid her fircatn be comes a healing balm, her presence a blessing. She disputes, inch by inch, with the staking pestilence, when man shrinks away pale and affrighted. Mis fortune daunts her not. She wears a a life of silent endurance, and goes forth with less timidity than to her bridal. In prosperity she is a bu l f ull of odors, waiting fi r the tide <f adversity to scat ter them all abroad; pure gold, valuable, but untried in the fuinacc.

John W. Keely, the inventor of the Keeiy motor, who has denied himself to all interviews for four years, explained at length to-day the wonderful experiments with his new motor gun, which were made at Sandy Hook on Saturday at the expense of the government. “Stripping the process of all technical terms,” said the inventor, “the motor gun is simply this. I take water and air, two mediums of different specific gravity, and produce from them by generation and effect un der vibration that liberates from the air and water an interatomic ether, lie energy of ibis effect is boundless andean hardly be comprehended. The specific gravity of the ether is about four times lighter than that of hydrogen gas, the ( lightest gas so far discovered. The gun I used at Sandy Hook was a breech-leading rifle, weighing 500 lbs. It was specially constiutfted forme. Il was four feet long and had a four inch bore. On Wednesday last I charged my tube, a five gallon reservoir of wrought iron, one and a half inches thick, with etheric vapor. Then I boxed it up. and did not even test it, so certain was I of its power. For three hours before the experiment it remained untouched in my shop. The process cf charging it con sumed less than four seconds of time. "You could not guess how much mate rial was used in making the vapor. To prtj :<:t twenty leaden bullets, each weigh ing nearly five ounces, at a velocity of over 500 feet a second, there was required six drops of water and about a pint of air. From this combination I derived sufficient force tq fire 250 bullets of the weight of these used, and the most curi ous thing about it all is that I found at the end of my experiments that I had increased the power in my tube instead of diminishing it, just as a race horse needs to be warmed up before be can do 1 imselfjustice. The initial velocity of the last bullet, was more than that of the first one. I can take the same tube and operate it anoti er day.” "Have you ever estimated the power of your interatomic ether?” was asked. "I have produced frequently,” was (he answer, “a | ressure cf 10,COO pounds to the square inch in a quarter of a second. The precess in reality is instantaneous I have succeeded in making n vacuum ol thir y-onc pounds of pressure. The steal coil attached to the gun increases the intensity of the vibration fifteenfold. After the ether is introduced into the weapon behind tin projectile the vibra tions liberate it, it expands, and the bul let is pro; el'ed out with great force, fmr times us great, as I said, as that of gun powd t. 1 have suecet ded in generating n pressure of 56,000 to the inch, and 1 have torn a Shaw gauge to pieces under the immense pressure. I have propelled a lead bullet through a four irch plunk of wend. In this instance, after pass ing through the wood so great was the force ol its progress it flattened itself out the size of a plate.”— Rome Cou ier. ILL-TEMI’ER. If people generally knew what an advantage to them it was to be cheerful, there would be fewer sour faces in the world and it.finitely less ill-tempo*. A man never gains anything by exhibiting hi» annoyance by Lis face, much less by buisting into passion, zks it is neither manly nor wise to yield like a child pettishly to every cross, so it is alike foolish and absurd to allow feelings of anger to deprive us of self-control. There never was a ni:n in any controversy who lost Lis temper who did not come near losing his cause in consequence. If'ever a person plays the game of hisanetuies it is when he is in a passion. Acquaintances ’ shun men of proverbally ill-ten per; friends drop away from them; eten wives and children gradually learn to fear them more than to love. Thousands of men owe their want of success in life to neglec'ing the control of their temper. , Nor have they the excuse that is an infirmity which cannot be restrained; for ' Washington, though naturally of a most passionate disposition, disciplined him self until he passed for a person utterly iuipm-sive. No man who neglects his temper can be happy any mere than he can make those happy around. Good temper is gold, is beyond price. Bad ' temper is a curse to the possessor and to society.

Delicacy is a thing which cannot be lost and found. No art ean restore to the grape its bloom. Familiarity without love, without confidence, without regard, is destructive to all that makes woman ennobling. “The world is wide, these thing* are rmall; They may be nothing, but theyare all.” Nothing? It is the first duty of a woman to be a lady. Good breeding is good morality. Awkardness may be in eradicable. Bashfulncss is constitutional. Ignorance of etiquette is the result of circumstances. All can be condoned, and do not banish man or woman from the amen-ties of their kind. But self possessed unshrinking and aggressive coarseness of demeanor may be reckoned as a state prison offense, aud certainly merits that mild form of restraint called imprisonment for life. It is a shame for women to be lectured on their manners It is a bitter shame that they need it. Women arc the umpires of society- It is they to whom all mooted points should be releired. To be a lady is more than to be a prince. A lady is always, in her rights, inalienably worthy of respect. To a la''y, a prince and peasant alike bow. The natural sentiment of man toward weman is reverence. A man's ideal is not wounded when a woman fails in worldly wisdom; but if in grace, in tact, in sentiment, in delicacy, in kindness, she should be found wanting, he receives an inwtrd hurt. — Marietta Journal. 1 \*wf £ / A-r r if : i'l-J i W (AH« 1 ' jSeri Orlec.-j. i Opsnlr; Dciemlcr l.tL'. t; Colinj "c, VMDKH TIH AUSI*K ts nr 1 Tl".
