BITS OF HISTORY.

The first Christian school was established by the Panta'us in 181. Golconda mines are now exhausted. At one time 60,000 men were eihployi 1 in them. When the Sultan Mahino d, who reigned in 1177-1206. died, he le.t in his treasury 400 pounds’ weight o! gems taken from the mines at G>l conda. The first aerial voyage was made Sept. 19, 1783. by a sheep, a cock and a duck to a height of 1,500 Let. The first human traveler through the air wis M. Francois Pilatre de Rozi r,' who mounted the following month in a free ball.on. The earliest known lens is one of rock crystal unearthed by Layard at Nineveh. This lens, the age of wh ch is measured by thous nds of years now lies in the British Museum. *vi bright and as clear as it was the day it left the maker’s hands. In the appalling catastrophe which destroyed the city of Lima and its harbor, Callao, in Peru, in October, 1.4 t, the earthquake shocks were re; eaten every seven or eight minutes, and eve 200 of the most violent kind w re counted within twenty-four hours, i. th j great earthquake of Caraccas, on the 26th of March. 1812, fifteen shocks were felt on the first day, and they continued numerous every day until the sth of April following. The oldest dressmakers’ bill in the world has been discovered on a Chaidean tablet, dating 2800 B. C. It haan entry of “ninety-two pure vestments for the priests. ” Among the items are “ten white robes of the Temple, eight robes of the house of his lady, ten collars of the house of his lady, ten pair of gold collars, two white robes and four scented robes,”also“twowinders,” probably scarfs for binding about the waist. Before this the oldest account of this sort was on a tablet dating over 1400 B. C. The Revolutionary War, 1775-1783, cost the United States $135.193,703. The Colonies furnished 395.0 >4 troops. The War of 1812 cost $107,159,003; the number of troops estimated at 471,62'. The Mexican War cost $100,(00,0 0: the number of troops engaged was A 01.282. The Civil War, 1861 1- (i , eost $6,189,929,900, according to tho official records; the number of troop, engaged on the Union side was 2,859,142, the total loss 460,503: the number engaged on the Confederate side was about 493,000 and loss about 300,000.

SICK-ROOM DON’TS.

Don’t appear anxious, however great your anxiety. Don’t let stale flowers remain in a sick chamber. Don’t have the temperature of a rick-room over 70 degrees. Don’t jar the bed by leaning or sitting upon it. This is unpleasant to one ill and nervous. Don't ask a convalescent if he would like this or that to drink, but prepare the delicacies and present them in a tempting way. Don t neglect during the day to attend’ to necessaries for the night, that the rest of the patient and the family may not be disturbed. Don’t be unmindful of yourself if you are in the responsible position of nurse. To do faithful work you m ist have proper food and stated hours of rest. Don’t throw coal upon the fire; place it in brown paper bags and lay them on the fire, thus avoiding the noise, which Is shocking to the sick and sensitive. Don’t light a sick-room at night by means of a jet of gas burning low; nothing impoverishes the air s on -r. Use sperm candles, or tapers w ich faura in sperm oil DON’T permit currents of air to blow upon tike patient An open fire-place is an excellent means of ventilation. The current may be tested by burning a piece of paper in front Don’t give the patient a full glass of water to drink from unless he is allowed all he desires. If he can drain the glass he will be satisfied: so regulate tha quantity before handing it to him. Don’t forget to have a few beans oi ooCee handy, for this serves as a deWdorixer, if burnt on coals or paper Bits of«chareoal plaeed around are use 4ul te absorbing gases and other imBon’T Allow offensive matters to re mate; In eaaee ,of .emergency where these cannot beat opep removed, wring a heavy doth, for instance., like Turkish teweiing, out of cold water, use it or ouor and

PRESIDENT OF THE AGASSIZ ASSOCIATION, IN POPULAR SCIENCE NEWS, ON THE BIRDS OF NORTH AMERICA.

In connection wit the foregoing:eport of our Ornithological Chapter, it is only right to call the attention of all lovers o'birds to the ma 6 u 1 ... 0 , v work now being issued by the Natural Science Association of America, and entitle “The Bibps 01 Nobth Amebica.” Edition limited to 1.000. I i is emphatically an original work, original iu design and execution, ai d whether in letter press, illust ations or price, it is unapproached by anything of tbe kind in existence. It is recommended by ths highest scientific. ecclesiastic and educational authority as being t :e most attractive, meritori ous, pure and ennobling exposition o our ornithology yet given to the public. Dr. Elliott Cones, author of Birds of the North West,” says; “It is a really notable work,* Prof. C. J. Maynard, author of tbe "Birds of Eastern North Amelias, ’’ says: “It contains the best pictures of the species which I have ever seen.— Thomas G. Gentry, author of “Jjife Histories of Birds,” and "Nests and Eggs 01 Birds of tLe United States,” says: “It i the cheapest and-best publication on ornithology iu this country. are of a very high order, and rivals in beauty of design and finish the more cost ly works published abroadorin this country. It should be found in our homes and in libraries generally.” And. aceording to Dr. Theodore Gill, a member o; the National Academy of Sciences, it is not only a meritorious volume, but is altogether so hanZUopye as to make it a very appropr - ate presentation book or ornament fur the family tablo * It is an imperial quarto vo' nme of ei> graved figures of all otw species, tnlisti caily reproduced, true in all sanes of color to their natural plumage and botanical surroundings. It also includes a copious text .description of their habits and characteristics, and embracing in general tbe observations made by the most eminent writers on ornithology, and a systematic table, arranged according to the classification adopted by the American Ornitholx gists’ Union, includes all the additions and corrections of our North American species which have been made to date, with an index ho page, plate and figure of each species according to the A. O U. number. It is illustrated with one hundred and nineteen full page colored plates, each representing from one to thirty or more species. It is the finest book on American birds issued since Audubon, and is pronounced by some authorities superior to that now rsre and costly work. It is issued in half and full bindings, Russia, seal, or morocco, at the not price ol S4O and $45 respectively; but in response to a special letter, the association authorised me to say that a special discount will 4>a /nude to such of our A. A. members and.others as are working naturalists:— We comiq?n4 this work especially to members vs the Wilson Ornithological Chapter. I. is also a very useful and appropriate addition to the home and referenda library, and for pre entatiou purposes generally. Add ess regarding it, the Natdb al Science Association, IliFifth Avenue, Naw York, N. l.i Samples of plates and text can be had by sending twepty-five .cents in postage Stamps. 12m lem.
