Dyteff tM ike Los. Flogging through tha fleet wm common in 1800 end before, and even ainoe. This M part of ft sentence pouted bj a courtmrtiaL The launch or long be at of a ship to which the offender belonged waa prilled alongside of each ship m the fleet and the prisoner received a dozen laahea from one of her boatswains' mates in the presence of her offioera and crew. Notwithstanding the presence of a Burgeon to report the ability of a prisoner to endure punishment, many have died under the lash. A single lash has been known to kill a man, whereas others have endured six dozen and lived. Old offenders who haye been frequently under the lash, and who haye had nerve enough to repress their sighs, say that they suffer more than those who cry out under every lash A hardened drunkard said that in resisting his feelings he had deranged his vision to such an extent that he had ever afterward sees, the skeleton of ft dead man near hiin, grinning sometime in his face. But he feared neither man nor fiend; he probably died insane. A young man of education and rather delicate build, who was frequently flogged for drunkenness, said that when under the lash he felt as if liquid iron were poured down the marrow of his backbone. Yet he would get drunk every time he had a chance. In the Gloucester, when shaking out reef of the iuuintopsail. a point became foul, in consequence of which the sail was torn. A man named Morris Murphy was held responsible, and the captain swore a terrible oath that he would flog him within an inch of his life. Though Murphy was one of the strongest men in the ship and as brave as he was strong a man wto never turned his back upon an enemy yet the captain's threat threw him in to "a nervous fever, which ended in death. Thrice he was supported to the grating and each time the surgeon said he was not fit to endure punishment, and before the fourth flogging day came round he had passed to his rest and his body had been committed to the deep, I was in the habit of writing his letters, and when the ship arrived in En gland I informed his mother of his death and directed her how to obtain his wages. Of course the cause of his death was not stated. His mother resided in Passage, Waterford, Ireland. In that same ship some four or five men who had slipped ashore without leave at Chatham were Hcgged the day she was paid off There was a story current in the ship that the captain, when a young man, had flogged nearly every man in a frigate's ship company. His barge's crew bound themselves by oath to give him ft touch of the cat when paid off. They waylaid him outside of Portsmouth in company with his wife and daughter in ft carriage. And while some took care of the coachman and gagged the women, the others tied him to a tree and flogged him almost to the point of death. He had a nervous twitcbinjr of the shoulders while in command of the Gloucester, and this was the way the sailors accounted for it Bos. on Commercial Bulletin.

The Ylnegar Plant. "The tough, leathery substance, commonly called 'mother which forms in vinegar, says Popular Scumcc Hon thly ais one of the many fungi whose spores float in the air, settle as dust on izposed objects, and fall into exposed liquids, ready to grow into a bulky plant when conditions favor. The exact position of the vinegar plant among fungi has not been settled. The plant develops while the vinegar is making; that is, while the percentage of acet c acid is increasing, and its presence tends to hasten the operation. It grows on the surface of the vinegar, and if not disturbed will cover the whole surface, conforming to the shape of the vessel. Manufacturers of vinegar get rid of the "mother" as soon as possible. The popular notion that the presence of "mother" shows that the vinegai is made of cider, and is of good quality, is not well founded. The vinegar plant appears in vinegar made of molasses, and it is really as undesirable in vinegar as mold on bread The little wriggling creatures that swarm in some vinegars have been credited by some uneducated persons with being the life of the vinegar. The fact is that their presence is in no way beneficial. These eels are developed in most fruits, and hence readily find their way into vinegar made from fruit juices. Vinegar which contains them must contain some mucilaginous or albuminous matter, or the eels would have no food, and could not exist. They need air, also, and they have been observed engaged in a curious struggle with the vinegar plant at the surface. The plant tends to prevent their obtaining the requisite supply of air, and the eels were seen combining their efforts to submerge it They may be killed by heating the vinegar to 128 degrees Fahrenheit, or by adding borae 'e acid. The presence of the vinegar plant, vinegar eels or other foreign substance is liable to induce putrefaction, especially if the vinegar is weak. The Evils of Half Education. One of the most common mistakes

made by both young ladies and gentlemen who contemplate entering any of the professions or Jbagh grade callings, is that they do not take a full course of study, and in the fullest sense graduate. The foundation is always important, and if this is defective the whole superstructure will be imperfect, and in some sense a failure. The college course, or its equivalent, gives training, and teaches how to use the faculties and powers. Such a one, other things being equal, come to the duties of life B juipped, and widened, and solidified The one who jumps into a profession from the high school goes there untrained and bearing marks of imperfection. There is a crndeness, coarseness and iHiterary which mars everything and stamps it with inferiority. It can be seen in every literary and professional effort. The haste and hurry of the age, and the foolish desirto make mone and get along in life, is spoiling many, many a profession al man. Make haste slowly, but surely. Do what you do well, J-e in no haste to be a man or woman. Be in no haste to enter a profession. It is infinitely more im

portant that you bo prepared for it whenever it comes. Some of our greatest professional fools are! our halfeducated men. "They are blind leaders of the blind, and often are burdens to the community in which they dwell, and sometimes even positive nuisances to society. liinggold Eecord, A Woman's Soul. "Now, Mrs. Penhalligan," said the squire, I am glad I have cornered you, for I want a word. You are spoiling Mrs. Graverock. It is very kind of you to come, but don't condole with her; it makes her worse. She wants stirring up. I know women. "Pardon me, you do not.w "I I know them, laughed the old man. "Golly! I have had sixty-five years experience with them, and I ought to understand them. "Xo, you have spent sixty-five years in their society, and you understand them less now than you did sixty-five years ago. Then you might have Earned; now you are past acquiring the knowledge. The manager stared at Loveday, amazed at her audacity. 5fou think, pursued the girl, "that woman's soul is to be tinkered with a slater's ax. It is of too fine a nature to be touched even with the thumb. When a particle of dust enters your watch and stops the hands you hold your breath as you examine the works lest a breath should rust ttiem. A. woman's heart is more delicate in its mechanism than' that, and a rough touch and a rude blast will spoil it for ever. You know our Cornish proverb, 'The earth is strewn with potsherds.' It means that everywhere, in every village, almost in every house, are broken lives, lives broken by rough usage and careless handling. You would have used the finger-glasses for a jest and a forfeit, and heeded nothing if they fell and were shattered. We poor women are like these same finger-glasses, full of fresh and pure water, for you men to dip your soiled fingers into and cleanse them not for you to convert into bumpers to break for a wager." The Graverocks Sign-Posts. The wise boys and girls learn from others' experiences. They listen when people older than themselves warn them of possible dangers. The foolish boys and girls are the ones who insist that they know so much that they need not learn more, or who think themselves so sharp, so bright, that they can see the obstacles that tripped others. The 8 ientific American not long since published a paragraph entitled "Mistakes of a Life." The mistakes were summed up as follows: "It is a great mistake to set up our own standard of right and wrong and judge people accordingly. "To measure the enjoyment of others by our own. "To expect uniformity of opinion in this world. "To look for judgment and experience in youth. "To endeavor to mold all dispositions alike. "To yield to immaterial trifles. "To look for perfection in our -own actions. "To worry ourselves and others with what cannot be remedied. "Not to alleviate all that needs alleviation as far as lies in our power. "Xot to make allowances for the infirmities of others. "To consider everything impossible that we cannot perform. "To believe only what our finite minds can grasp. "lo expect to be able to understand everything. Overpressure in Schools The Provincial Medical Journal gives a summary of a report on overpressure and the sedentary life of schools, which has been presented by M. Lagneau to the Academy of Medicine at i'aris. M. Lagneau states that short-sightedness, phthisis, dyspepsia, and nervous troubles are often the result of prolonged sitting in one posture, overpressure, and of premature intellectual contention. He advises as pre ventive measures that children should have not k is than eight hours sleep, and that tneir daily work from 8 to 12 years of age should not be more than from four to eight hours. Eecreation, such as music and singing, should alternate with intellectual work. Glasses for infants should not exceed twenty to thirty minutes, and an hour to an hour and a quarter should not be exceeded for older pupils. Home lessons should be better proportioned to the powers of the children, and gymnastics should be cultivated. Why He Never Went Shooting. Somebody having asked Sydney Smith why he never went shooting, he replied: "Because I found that the birds seemed to consider the muzzle of my gun the safest position ; secondly, because I never could help shutting my eyes when I fired a gun; and, thirdly, because if you do shoot, the squire and the poacher both consider you their natural enemy, and I thought it more clerical to be at peace with both."

Old chamois skins may be softened and cleaned by the following process: Kub plenty of castile soap into the skin, and soak for two hours in a weak solution of sal-soda in warm water, then rub it well until quite clean. Afterward rinse in a weak solution of salsoda and soap in water; after rinsing, wring it dry in a coarse towel; and when fully dry, beat it until soft and smooth, and it will bo finer and better than most new chamois skins.

There is a watch in a Swiss museum only three-sixteenths of an inch in diameter inserted in the top of a pencilcase. Its little dial not only indicates hours, minutes, and seconds, but also days of the month. It is a relic of the time when watches were inserted in snuff-boxes, shirt-studs, and fingerrings. Some were fantastic, oval, octangular, cruciform, or in the shape of pearls, tulips, etc. Pbof. Elishjl Gkay is said to have discovered a way by which the writing on a sheet of paper can be exactly reproduced by telegraph SQQ miles or more away.

In the VI bole Hideous Cataloirue Of diseases, thore wore none which, proTioas to the discovery of Hosteler's Stomach Bitters, offered more formidable resiutanoa to the oldfashioned modos of treatment than tie group of maladies hich, under the collective name of malarial die ease, afflicted entire communities that suffered hopelessly. Chills and lever, dumb ague, ague cake, and bilious remittent were once regarded as well nigh incurable. Now it rejoices tho hearts of thousands who reside in dietriett. periodically subject to the visitation of malaria, to feel certain tha'5 in the Bitters they possess a certain detonso against the scourge, a tare means of expelling its poison from the system. To the settler in tfce for West, the new emigrant thither, and to travelers and touriatfi by land and sea, the posse is ion of this pleasant safeguard is a guaranty of safety from d: seases which they miglat vainly seek from any cither source. The Probablo Ultimate YenUct on Napoleon It seems to be welloigh useless to expect at present from the English-speaking public a fair and reasonable estimate of Napoleon Bonaparte. But anyone who really tries to enter into the circumstances that surrounded him, into problems which he had to meet, into the conditions of European iolitical, legal, and social life which existed in his day, will rise from his studies with a very different notion of him from that generally entertained. For the first fifty years of the century Napoleon's character and acts were attacked by the Legitimist and Conservative party; during tho second half of it, Republicans and Liberals have joined in the assault. That Napoleon, was as enlightened and liberal a ruler as the stormy condition of the times and the imperfect state of political knowledge and capacity of the populations of the Continent allowed him "to be, will very likely be tho ultimate verdict Meantime, Napoleon is tried by standards of public and private morals which critics and historians never dream of applying to his contemporaries He is harshly dealt with ou all sides. Yet it is somet hing gained that recent writers on the condition of Europe in Napoleon's day have come to recognize the utility and beneficence of his legislative and political labors. It tends to show that the race-prejudice which is so strong is. the Anglo-Saxon, and the constitutional difficulty which man of our stock always hav e in appreciating the problems which face other nations, have, to a certain extent at least, been overcome. The sconer these obstacles are leveled the sooner we shall arrive at the truth of history. John C Hopes, in Scribner's Magazine. Says Wood and Iron : One of the neatest and best ways of testing the soundness of a boiler plate is to sling it up by the corners so that it will lie in a horizontal position, and scatter a small quantity of dry sand evenly over the surface. By tapping the sheet lightly underneath, the sand will be thrown off wherever the plate is solid, while in places where lamination or blister occurs the sand will remain fixed. The Sweetest Girl in School. "She's the sweetest girl in school!" enthusiastically exclaimed cue young miss to another, as they passed down the etreet to geiher. "Edith ia so kind, and gentle., and unselfish, every one liken her. And she has lovely golden hair and prelty eyes. Isn't it a pity her complexion 13 so bad; it spoils her looks. And then she has such dreadful headaches!" The girls skipped along, but it happened Edith's mother nad heard what ihey said It set her thinking. What could be done for those headaches and the rough, muddy complexion, that was such n trial to her eentle da ughter. She recalled what Bhe
