SCIENCE AND ART NOTES.
Mr. W. Morris, of Gourock, Great
Britain, has, it is said, invented a method
of photographing underwater. The ca
mera is said to be lowered beneath the
wave, and the “cap” removed, when the
adjustment has been maite to suit the
operator. A Scotch journal states some
fairly good viewshave been taken by
this process. *
The house of Louis Muller, ofLeipsie,
Germany, has nut on the market col
ored inks, which may be usedtfor writ
ing labels on glass, iron, marble, mother
of pearl and metal. The Writing Is
done with a goose quill, and when dry '
adheres so firmly that it teanuot be re
moved by any liquid. Four different
colors are made, black, white, red and
blue. «
The English Mechanic states that Mr.
Edison is attempting to make a new por
table electric lamp, which, with the bat
tery (a constant onnl shall be no larger
than those ordinarily seen on a parlor
table. This is probably a canard, as it
would take about fifty of Grove’s cells
to generate sufficient electricity to give
good illumination with one of Eoison’s
new electric lamps.
A somewhat curious sale is an
nounced to take place in Paris this
month. It consists of about 4,0D0
paintings, drawings, etc., of various de
scriptions that have been executed by
pupils under government instruction.
Among these are, doubtless, many
works by well known painters of the
day; but, as none of them are signed, it
is difficult to identify them. Tne gov
ernment sells the whole in different lots,
so that here is a fine opportunity for
those who like to speculate in the prob
ability of being able to acquire some
early work by a distinguished master at
a small cost.
Mr. W. K. I’rejsce makes the follow
ing observation : “At certain seasons
of the year and at certain periods there
are strong currents of electricity flowing
through the earth, and these currents
enter our wires and produce disturb
ance, Where they come from or what
they are we do not know; it is one of the
mysteries of telegraphy.” This passage
appears to give hope that the earth is a
natural store-house of electiicity, and
may yet provide an inexhaustible sup
ply of natural electricity in some form.
It may not be generally known
that we have in the nickel five
cent piece of our coinage a key to
the tables of lineal measures and of
weights. The diameter of this coin is
two centimeters and its weight is five
grammes. Five of them placed in a row
will of course give the length of a deci
meter, and two of them will weigh a
decagramme. As the kiloliter is a cubic
meter, the key to the measure of length
is also the key to the measure, of ca
pacity. Any person, therefore, who is
fortunate enough to own a fivo-eent
nickel may carry in his pocket the. en
tire metric system of weights and meas
ures.
It may be interesting to describe the
method by which Professor N. 8. Maske
lyne, of the British Museum, tested the
so-called Glasgow diamonds, as it may
assist others to make similar experi
ments should occasion require. The
properties of a real diamond areas fol
lows: First, it excels all substances in
hardness; second, its crystals belong to
the cubic system, and should not, there
fore, present the property of double re
fracting light; third, the diamond, beintr
pure carbon, burns entirely away when
heated to a sufficient high temperature
in the air, and more vividly when
burned in oxgen cas. Professor Maske
lyne took a few grains of the dust—for
the so-called diamonds were tro small to
be seen without good eyesight or a lens
—and placed a. lew graiss between a
clevage plate of. a sapphire and a topaz,
and rubbed the two surfaces together.
There resulted no abrasion, and the
particles were reduced to a pow
der, without even scratching the
topaz. This showed they were
not diamonds, lie next mounted
some of the dust on a micro
scopic slide and vietoed it under
the microscope by polarized light.
They acted, each and all, powerfully in
the manner of a bi-refrangent crystal.
They were not diamonds. Finally he
took some of the dpst, and exposed them
to the intense heat of a table blow-pipe
on a piece of pjatinum foil. They re
sisted all attempts to burn them. Then,
for comparison, he placed them with
small nieces of real diamonds and re
peated the experiment. J The result was,
the diamonds glowed and disappeared,
but the Glasgow crystals were obstinate
and unacted aa on before. From, all
this Professor Maakelyne concluded that
the particles in question were not only
not diamonds, but were noteven carbon.
He next tried t« find out what they
were composed of. and heated some
particles on platinum several times with
ammonium fluoride, when they became
visibly smaller, and a slight reddish
white incrustation was seen on the
field. Secondly, some particles were
placed over night in hjdrofluoric acid
in platinum capsule. This proved that
Mr. Mactear’s Glasgow diamonds were
merely some crystallised silicate, a com
pound of silica.
An Exceptional Did Man.
Aeron McKeuny died in Saco, Maine,
on the 6th inst., aged 102 years, 1 month
and 16 days. He had always lived at
his birthplace. When 1)9 lie attended
to his farm, which he had literally
hewed out of the wilderness, and at his
last birthday was able to stand at a mir
ror and shave himself. He never sued
a man, or in turn was sued, prior to his
one hundredth birthday anniversary. He
was never desirous of holding public
offices, and when at one time he was ap
pointed a justice of the peace by the
Governor of the State, he declined to
accept the honor. 'He often loaned
money, but would never accept more
than 6 per cent, interest. He never
drank as a beverage intoxicating liquors,
and had no use for a physician until
after he was 100 years old. In the
spring of 1879 an unsuccessful attempt
was made tc place a guan’ian over him.
As soon as he heard that men, whom he
had considered friends, were seriously
entertaining the proposition, he wrote
an indignant protest, and demanded an
expression of public opinion about it.
Pubic opinion was against it, and he was
not molested.
The Indian Girls at Carlisle.
The Carlisle school is a national in
stitution, occupying the United States
Barracks at Carlisle, Pa., a military post
which datesfrom the revolution, and will
garrison 2,000 men. The buildings have
been but partially used by the poldiers
stationed there, and are now propiti
ously utilized in a work which thor
oughly pursued must relieve the army
of its only labors and perils. There are
now 151 Indian youths at Carlisle bar
racks, nearly all fetched there in Octo
ber from the West by Captain Pratt.
There could be accommodated, 500 if
there were funds enough to bring them
there and take care of them; and there
are a score or so teachers, mostly young
women, who have something to gi”e up
in entering upon such a task. There
ire about forty girls at Carlisle, and
what is said of them in a little paper
printed at the school is so interesting
that we quote a little of it: “You
could hardly find as many girls in any
school or of any color that would get
along with each other so amicably. *
Only one is married, Sarah Mathew,
daughter of Spotted Tail and wife of
Chas. Tackett, an interpreter. Their
hearts are very tender,and easily worked
upon, and a few days ago when we
Went to the rooom of a Kiowa eirl who
had that day heard of the death of her
father, we found two Sioux, girls sitting
with her, and showing by their faces
that they felt very sorry for her in her
great trouble Os course the Indian
girls are brought up to labor; once, when
we were talking to them through the in ■
terpreter, we asked them if they wanted
to learn to sew, sweep, clean, etc , ip
“ the white man’s way.” Nearly every
girl made a ready reply, but one
brought out her answer with so much
force that we inquired particularly
what she said, and the answer was, “she
says she do want to learn awful bad.”
The delight the little girls take in learn
ing anything new, and their great de
sire to excel the larger girls, is remark
able. Not many days ago several of the
little girls, without a suggestion from
any one, took it upon themselves to mend
the stockings of the large girls, who were
at work in the dining-room, and, con
sidering their ago and experience, they
were well mended. . And so it is with
everything they undertake, and the
half has not been told, and can’t be.”
A Strange Story.
In 1848 a chestnut tree, quite ”00
years old, was blown down on the banks
of a little creek near the church called
“ South Carolina/’ within a mile of the
village of Yorktown, in PickensCountv,
Ala., and about seventeen miles south
east of Columbus, Miss. Beneath the
roots of the chestnut tree were found a
a pair of brass scales for weighing, with
the brass weights having Spanish in
scriptions and numerals on them. Two
three-pound cannon shot were found
with the scales. The soil beneath the
tree was very dry, drained as it was by
the little stream hard by, and these
relics by the Spanish adventures were
well preserved. But it does not follow
because these portable articles were
found at the spot that De Suo visited
it. He had little use for scales, and
may have left them at somet distant
place of encampment, or lost them in
some battle, and a curious red man,
assigning little value to the “ treasure
trove,” leftit when he drank on the banks
of the stream. Indians had no wagons
or wagon ways, and yet when Eastern
Mississippi was first settled by the white
people in 1830, and while the Choctaws
still owned and occupied the countfy,
there was a broad deep wagon road fol,
lowing the course of the river some dis
tance and deeply cut in iqe Uiilsides,aud
into the river’s banks. It crossed the
river at the mounds, ten or twelve miles
Below Columbus, on Butler’s plantation,
of which 1 have spoken. The Choctaws
said that this road was carved out by
white men, who marched across the 1
country, fightiner and killing, kmg be
fore their recollection, If this be the
tradition, as 1 heard it stated long ago,
there can be little doubt that De Soto
made the road and crossed Tom bigbee
at the place indicated by tiie Spanish
scales and weights, and the old high
way was certainly made by no race of
modern Indians. But if this be true, it
does not follow that De Soto spent the
winter preceding this passage of the
Mississippi iu the vicinity of Columbus
or at Tupelo.
Hereditary “ Genius.”
• That the son of a man, who. when he
is not breaking into shops and bouses, is
in the State prison, ami of a woman,
who, at the age of three, was convicted
of theft and had lived among criminals
ever since, who was the daughter ot a
woman that kept, a disorderly house and
drove her daughter iuto the streets to
steal—that the offspring of such parents
should have lived a lite of crime is as
natural as that night should succeed
day. He is but fourteen years old, and,
on being at his mother’s request arrested
and brought into a New York police
''Court in the hope of saving him, cried in
a loud and impudent tone, “ that woman
is a thief and a shoplifter, and wants to
get rid of me.” sShe said she had lav
ished money upop him, sending him to
three diflerent Canadian colleges, but he
always came back to New York, fre
quenting low saloons and consorting
with desperate characters. She obtained
a good situation for him in a second
hand furniture store, but when the pro
prietor, a woman, threatened to dismiss
him for bad conduct, he seized a carving
knife, and, at the point of it, made her
write out 'a recommendation of good
character, to the effect that he.had been
a steady, honest lad. When his mother
stopped sneaking he began abusing her
again, and said she was always trying to
get rid of him. Twice be came from I
Montreal to Detroit to-find her, but she
had lett fpr New Orleans, leaving him
only $5 to get back to New York with;
and at another time she put him out of
the house. He confessed he was never
happy in school. The tutors made it
unpleasant for him. When the magis
trate remanded him to prison be cried
so that he had him brought back to see
what the matter was; whereupon he be
gan abusirtg bis mother again. His
mother is named Lyons, and is well !
known in various cities as an expert
shoplifter.
The uncertainty of wealth is more
than counter-balanced by the certainty
of poverty.
Bitter Drops in the Sweetest Cup.
[Chicago Times’ Madrid Letter.]
Alfonso has been here four years,
and is learning the bitter lesson that
comes of the vain ambition and pride of
kings. As he stood in the regal hall of
the Ambassadors the other night he
wore a troubled look in the very height
of the feast. His mother, gorgeous as a
Snitana in laces and jewels worth an im
perial ransom, firelight' a French Jbur
nalist to present. The journalist was a
member of the Figaro staff, and the con
versation smacked more of a politician
anxious to retain his place than a young
bridegroom in the soft delight of the
honeymoon. He set out by avowing his
admiration for the Fitjaro, which, he
declared, “I lead every day.” He
admitted that he felt some of the en
nuies of life. ‘ This pageantry, forex
ample,” he declared, “ is tedious to me.
I should not suffer it, only my people
must have it. If I didn’t consent to
the grand parade and costly ceremonies
the tradesmen and pleasure seekers of
thq cities, and provinces would com
plain.” The show and ceremonial of
court life bore him. His taste iwall for
warlike practice. He never, he said,
had enjoyed life so thoroughly as when
in the saddle at the head of his armies
in Northern Spain putting down the
Carlists. That was the sort of lie he
loves. “They accuse me,” he added.
“of loving ostentation, pb aaurc and
pride. Not at ail. Saturday, for ex
ample, after the grand pageant, while
the palace was swarming with pleasure
seekers, my wife and I, throwing ofi
our gold atiirc for that of simple citi
zens, walked out. I wanted to show
her Madrid, as she had never seen the
city. We walked for two hours. No
one knew us. We naw the crowds and
passed through them unknown. ’ Per
haps the fact that he was unknown
gave the royal youth more confidence,
for there are thousands of stilettos in
Madrid that would go to his heart by
swift and willing hands if such an oj>-
portunity were offered.
Bridal and Burial Bells.
A New York exchange makes the fol
lowing sensible remarks to which we in
vite the attention of all our American
girts:
Several circles of New York society
have been shocked the past week by’the
sudden and unexpected deaths of bridee
of less than a year. Mrs. Rives, who
was a Miss Fellows, ond who was mar
ried less than a year ago at St. Thomas'
Church, attended a reception given on
Friday week by her mother-in-law, and
two days alter was dead, having been
sick but an hour. Mrs. Rutherford
Stuyvesant, married less than ayear, has
also died suddenly. The same thing
recently happened in Boston, when a
wife of less than twelve months, who
was about to become a mother, suddenly
died. Such events as these ate very
distressing, and of more than ordinary
import. Itbecomesall young married
women and men to seek for their sigtiili
cahce. Why should young wives «i<- so
suddenly, even before they have put off
their bridal role s! It fact that the
fashionable American girl, the tender
hot house plant of our great cities, is
unable to bear the strain put upon her
constitution by the changed conditions
in life which the married state impose’?
Is she prudent under certain circum
stances, in keeping up her round of gay
social entertafninents? Os being out
late, eating at al! hours, dancing, ami
dressing in the unhealthy fashion qf tiie
day '.’ The American girl of the period
is not as robust and healthy aa her
predecessors were; the girl in New York
fashionable life has much to contend
with, and if she overtaxes her vitality
the thread of life may suddenly snap iu
twain. Barents, physicians, and liu
bands, have adutytoperform in this mat
ter which is imperative. Wealthy pro
pie are not free from the laws of life,
any more than poor folks, and they must
obey them, or suffer the consequences.
It seems a dreadful pity that so many
young wives should be led to the altar
only to find the bier within the brief
period of a year. The burial bells fol
low all too closely the wedding- chimes!
A Richmond, Ya., dispatch says:
“Mr. Parnell in his speech tonight
spoke of the New York Herald's sub
scription of $109,000 as a patent adver
tising dodge.” In the language of his
country, Mr. Parnell would have spoken
with more wisdom if he had kept his
mouth shut.— Philadelphia Item.

The Change in the Frog.
Nowhere in the animal kingdom is I
there so favorable an opportunity for |
peeping int« nature’s workshop as in the ;
metamorphoses of the frog. This ani- 1
mal is a worm when it comes from the
egg. and remains nuch the first four days
of its life, having neither eyes nor ears,
nostrils nor respiratory organs. It :
crawls. Jt breathes through its skin. I
After a while a neck is grooved in the;
flesh. Its soft lips are hardened into a i
horny bead. The different organs, one
after another, bud out; then a pair of,
branching gills, and last, a l ing and i
limber tail. The worm has become a
fish. Three or four days more elapse, (
and the gills sink back into the body, 1
while in their place others come, much ,
more complex, arranged in vascular i
tufts, one hundred and twelve in each, i
But they, too, have their day, and are !
absorbed, together with their framework ;
of bone and cartilage, to be succeeded
by an entirely diflerent breathing appar- j
atus, the initials of a second correlated
group of radical change. Lungs are de
veloped ; the n outh widened; the horny I
beak converted into rows of teeth, the 1
stomach, the abdomen, the intestines,
prepared for the reception of animal
food in place of vegetable; four limbs, !
fully equipped with hip and .shoulder
bones, with nerves and blood-vessels, '
push out through the skin, while the'
tail, being now supplanted by them as a
means of locomotion, is carried away
piecemeal by the absorbents, and the 1
animal passes the balance of its 'lays as ■
an air-breathing and flesh-feeding batra- ,
i hian.
