According to Welsh history, the Atlantic was first crossed in 1170, by Madoo, a prince and hero of Wales. The quaint Cotton Mather in speaking of the cruelty of the King Philip War, 1676, says: ‘The Indians deliberately roasted their prisoners out of the world.’ Florida was first visited by Ponce de Leon in the year 1512, and received its name from the day on which it was discovered, Easter Sunday called in Spanish pascula florida. The first telescope was made in 1590, by ZaoiT ary Jansen, a maker of spectacles in Middle - bu^gh, Holland. The mioroscope was invented soon after, by Jansen and his son. Three hundred years ago the coming Winter, Sir Francis Drake passed the Winter in the har bor of San Francisco, and gave the name of New Albion to the shore and country surrounding. Gen. Henry Lee was the author of the phrase, ‘First in war, first in peace, first in the hearts of his fellow-citizens.’ It was used in a series of resolutions presented to the National House of Representatives, December, 1766. It was in 1520 that Vasquez de Ayllon visited the coast of South Carolina in search of slaves. Having enticed a crowd of Indians on board his ship, he 86t sail for Hayti. One of his vessels was lost, and most of his captives died at sea. In 1672, a few graziers erected cabins on the spot where Charleston, S. C. now stands, and eight years later, 1680, the town was formally founded. Fifty families ware sent over by Charles II. Five years later a colony of Hugue nots joined the settlement, driven from France by religious persecution. Egypt comprehended anciently, within limits of do very great extent, no fewer than 20,000 inhabited cities ! This is stated to have been the case under Amasis, when the number of in habitants in them, according to the same ac count, was almost incredible. Itsanoient kings are said to have kept armies of 300,000 men in their service. f>opuIav Jurtcurc. It is believed that somnambulism and mes merism are nearly identical.

They were quick ly raised as the sound of a familiar step on the walk came to her ear. It belonged to Father Maurice, who came half wearily up the walk. He had been ill, it would seem from his face, which was even more colorless than usual, and his large eyes, looked larger and more nervously bright in their deep sockets. The two looked at each other as tleir hands met; then they sat down side by side on the step, but they seemed to talk but little. Yale was withdrawing from the window that had aforded her a view of this little scene oil the portief, when her attention was attract ed to the yard belov. She had a glimpse of Hen nessey’s swarthy-pd face through the oleander bushes. He was standing behind them, watching the pair on the porih. Presently lie thrust out a brawny, shirt-sleevid arm, and shook his clenched hand at them, wliil a look of rage distorted his face. Then he parted thebusbes, strode out and mounted the steps. Haltinga step below the one on which the priest and Mrs.Medway sat, he looked down at them with a scowl wd said: ‘Mrs. Medway, Ivrish to speak with you on busi ness.’ ‘Directly,’ was hr cool answer, her proud eyes meeting his and tring to beat back their insolence with a chilling rebke. But he was not to be re pressed. ‘Directly won't .ro, he said shortly, ‘what I’ve got to say, I’ll say it once, here before the priest if you like. If he lbows one thing he may as w r ell know the other.’ Mrs. Medway ws silent, pressing her lips against each other. She i>se slowly, asserting her dignity in spite of the disomposure that made the tell-tale streak of crimson rise to her forehead. ‘Father Mauricidoes not care to be bored with petty farm mattes,’ she said. ‘He will excuse me while I spefikto yu a moment in the sitting room.’ They passed on hrough the hall, into the sitting room, not seeiagfale, who had wrapped the win dow curtain abet her. when they reappeared they stood a mortnt at the door of the room and Vale caught the prds: ‘I have waitedjlong enough and done enough; one little act willmt a stop to it all. It will have to come, soon orite.’^ ‘Do not speak C that again,’ the lady said with a shudder. ‘There its been enough evil done already. Not that! somethig else must be thought of. The consciousness ma not last. I will go with you to night.’ Vale, hid by tl ample chintz curtain, overheard this much of the inversation between this widely contrasting pairylio seemed to have other busine s than farm ingttk what the business was, Vale was left to conjiture.

There is no modern fashionable notion quite so absurd as tho generally received idea that to be beautiful and attractive a won an mnsi possess a wan, spirituelle face and a figure of slyph-like proportions—a fiagility in nine cages out of ten the result of disease. By many fash ionable belles it is considered a special compliment to be spoken of as frail and delicate. They forget thst »he naturally delicate face and petite figure are very differ ent from the pale and disease-stricken faces that meet us in tte city thoroughfares, look out from the luxurious carriages of wealth, and glide languidly through onr crowded drawing-rooms. If disease were unfashionable, and it ought to be, not a lady in the land but would take every possible precaution to secure the fresh, blooming lace aad well-rounded figure that only health can give. Ladies should remember that much as gentle men may profess to admire the face and form paled and emaciated by disease, when ihey choose a wife they pre fer a blooming, healthful, buoyant-spirited woman.

Of course, these things are only partaken of, supposing the patient is recovering. In making toast and water, never blacken the bread, but toast it only a nice brown. Never leave toast and water to make nntil the moment it is required, as it cannot then be properly prepared—at least, the patient will be obliged to drink it warm, which is anything but agree able. A muHon chop, nicely cut, trimmed, and hioilcd to a tuin, isa dish to be recommended for invalids; but it must not be served with all the fat at the end, nor must it be too thickly cut. Let it be cooked over a fire free from smoke, and sent up with the gravy in it, be tween two very hot plates. Nothing is more disagreeable to an invalid than smoked food. Never serve beef-tea or broth with the small est particle of fat or grease on the surface. It is better, after making either of these, to allow them to get perfectly cold, when all the fat may be easily removed; then warm up as much as may be required. Two or three pieces of clean wbity-brown paper laid on the broth will ab sorb any greasy particles that may be floating at the top, as the grease will cling to the paper.

Rely upon nutritious food and you will need nothing beyond these things except rest and proper moral regulation of your powers to give you ioDg, happy and useful lives, and a serene evening at the close.’ written upon oiof them, ‘I am going early to morrow.
