Mckel o Ik HW Uoker Uc, ' la late number of (tit IlunlorJua G Mtte w find the following from the pen o the eminent poetuu to J amiable lad, Mr, R. S.Nichole: "Cundistixb Marbmoki. N'o occur rence of private nature ha rer crcalo-l Icpr public interest than tho recent war riege, iu New York, of Min linker lo her fitbor'i coachman, ono John Dean. Ii In claimed that Mint Dukcr i refined, in telligent, and cultivated young lady ; thut he it competent lo tcacfi uiua'c, end it mistress of teveral language tlml iliv is, In ahort, all that gculleiuaii cmld lsli hit daughter to be, with otio exception, to wit : a singular partinlit' fr an unrclined, uncultivated (run coachman. Divert have been the opinion expressed in regard to -Mitt U.'t conduct. Many have pruiscd many have blamed hor, and not a few have been puzzled to know Lnw it all was brought about; which party, in fact, took the lead in thit lingular courtship. Our own opinion it that Mitt linker must have taken the initiative step, and that, too, pretty decidedly, for this Is not a romantic ge, when a pretty page mny marry his mittrctt, or gcutlcmen go about dNguitcd at raenialt in order to win the ladies of their love, but a tlowniiglit sober, utilita rian period, though ily girls are tli'l found who do sillier thing, to the astonish ment of the world at large and of their 'trusting parents in particular. We havo do sympathy with the su-callud roniancn of Miss lioker's warringo, though a very genuine pity is awakened at the thought of years of uutold misery which she Lit iu 11 probability breught upon herself. There mutt hive been something radically wrong, either iu the niorul truiuing or the mental organization of n girl in Mi.-s lio ker's position in life, to load to such a ro tult as is now confessedly before the world. A young lady, high bred, polished, and of great womanly delicacy, encourages a rough, coarse, uniiitvllccluul man, tilling a meuiul station in her parents' household, to approach her as a lovor, and finally elopes with and marries him I It is not bocniisa he is poor, or that he is in a lower statiou in life than herself, that makes thib all'uir to monstrous in the eyes of those accustomed to look beyond tho present into I ho future : it is because of the total dissimilarity of icgiiii, time, opportunity, unci eiitluw inents. And yet Miss Uoker cannot be come to us a rouned woman. No refine womun could have Lor no to have bocn ad dressed in tho lunguage ef love by an un refined, coarse natural man, !o suy nothing i nor living under the tamo roof with ium, and beholding hnn condemned to herd with llioso tho osineiued so much beneath her, while she ouecned it up ttairs in an--othcriphere. No refined and right minded woman would hava flung away a faihcr's and mother's love, or treated them so dis ingenuously, after nil their kind care und atl'ccliouato giiardiausliip, bj did thUyeung lady in question. No delicate minded' woman would have subjected herself and her private alliiirs to the rudo remarks and pitiless animadversions of nn excitement hunting public, as this newly-married Mrs. John Ueun has done. "Marriage, to bring liiippiiiess lo tho parties interested, must bo a union of tastes, feeling, and sentiment; llifr must be congeniality of spirit, something nearly equality of mind, and certainly that sym pathy of pursuit, which equal educational udvaulnges always develop. Without those, there can bo uo permanent happi ness in lifoj but after the novelty and blindness of passion wear nway, certain -misery must follow which is always sure iu i.iii must ueavuy on mo weaker purl v. ''Clandestine marriages acldum bring happiness; the woman who naeiilicr-s Jiome and a father' and iiwtlior's iill'iction 'for a lovor, unless tho parents nro unusu ally unreiisunnble, geiicrully reaps tlml re- ward which follows in ilia" footsteps of in .gratitudo and disobedience." Good Joke. A correspondent of the Lambcrtville (N. V.) Btacon says thst a abort time since, while staying iu the bor ough of E , ho overheard tho follow- ing, which ho thinks to good to be lost: A mimber of politicians, nil of whom wero seeking olllces under tho Cievernnu nii were seated on the Inrvern porch, talking, when an old toper, named Jake l) , a person who it very loquacious w hen 'corn ed,' but exactly opposite heu sober, said, thut if the company had no objections, he would tell thorn a story. They told him to 'fir away j' whereupon ho spoke as fol lows : ,"A certain King don't recollect his name had a philosopher upon whose judgment he always depended. Now, it so happened that ono day, (ho King look it iuto his head to go hunting, and iftor eummoning hit noblos, and making all (lit lUfcetsnry preparations, he summoned the philosophor, mid asked him if it would rain. Tho philosopher told him it would not, and he and his nobles departed. vWhilo journeying along, tliey met a coun Vymnn mounted upon a jackass; he ad vised them to return "for" said lie, it corlainly will rain." They smiled ecu lemptuou.sly upon him, and passed on. Before they had gone ninny miles, however, they had reason to regret not having taken the rustic's advice, us a heavy thowerof rain coming up, they " ere drenched to the tkin. When they had returned to the palace, tho king reprimanded the philoso- j pher severely fur telling him it would be tlcar when il was not. " I met a country man," said he " and he knowa a great deal more than you, for he told me it w uld rain, whereat, you tolJ me it would not." Tasking then gave him his walking pa peri, and teut fur the countryman, who aoart maje bis appearance. "Tell me," taid the ling, " how you knew it would iin." Ml didn't know," said the rustic, my jcks tolJ me." "And how, pray did he tell you!" the king asked, In great astonishment. " By pricking up hit ears, your Majesty." The king now tent tli countryman away, and, procuring the jack on of him, put It in the office the phlloioj her had filled. " And, here, cb terrcd Jake, looking very wise, " here it whore the king road a great mistake. " How so I" inquired hit auditors. " Why, ever tinco that time," saidj.ke, with a g'in on hit phi, "every jartass wunti an ofiee." Scientific Facts. Count Itumford, hy boring a cannon within water, to heated it by friction, that ha mado it boil, and actu ally boiled a piece of beef in it. One gallon of water lo ttcam will raise tlx gallon from CO to 211. Four ibt of beef lose 1 lb by boilin;- 1 lb 5 o by rousting, and 1 lb 3 oz by buking. Four Ibt of mutton loso I I oz by boiling, 1 lb 0 oz by roasting, and 1 lb 4 oz by baking. Lamps were used by tho oncienls, and candles wero an invention of the middle ngct. At first, wicks were mado of hemp, pai.yru, and the pith of rushes. 0 and sheep tallow Is now preferred. One pound of hydrogen consumes or fixes seven end a half pounds of oxygen, hid) in' lis 300 pounds of ico. Oue lb of wax, oil, or tallow, consumes or fixes two pounds oxygen, which melts 104 poundi of ico. Tho ir.viiiblo radiations from heated bod its may bo acted upon by refraction liko light, but lliey do not pass through trans pareut bodivs. Melted snow praducts about ona-eighlb ef Us bulk of water ; hence siiaw two feel deep produces three inches of water when hawed. In Cornwall, certain steam-engines have lifted forty million poum't ono foot, with oun bushel of coal ; and one at Wliccltown fled sixty-two milliout uith an eighty- ncli cylinder. Wuter saturated with nitro loses -10 de- grccs of heat ; and with nitrate of amino uia 40 degrees of heat. All solid bodies become luminous at 800 degrees. Extreme cold produoes the some percep tion on tho skin as great heat. Wlieu mercury is frozen nt 40 degrees below zero the sensation is the same as that f touch ing red-hot iron. Acids combined with water condense it nod produce heat. Egi,'' ere hutched at 104 degrees of heat. Gunpowder explodes at 000 deg. of heat Facts about tug Koran. The Koran was written about a. d. CIO. Its general nun was to unite the professions of Idol atry and the Jews and Christians iu the worship of one God whose unity was tie liief point inculcated under certain laws and ceremonios, exacting obedience- to Ma homet and tho prophet. It was written in tli Kereish Arabic, ind this language, which certainly possessed every fine quali ty, wussaid to b that of paradise. Ma- bomt t asserted that tho Koran was reveal- d lo him, during a period of twenty- three years, by iho Angel Gabriel. The t) le ef the volume is beautiful, fluent and concise; and where tho majesty and at tributes of God nro described il is sublime and magnificent. Mahomet ndmiile.l iVi divine mission both of Moses nnd Jesus Christ. According to Gibbon, tho lend ing nrticlu of faith which Mahomet preach. id is compounded of an eternal truth and a necessary fiction, namely, that there is only ono God, nnd that Maliomot is the apostle of God. Tho Koran was transla ted into Latin in 1143, and into English ifnd other European languages about 1703, It is a rhapsody of 3,000 verses, divided into 114 sections. .Mo.NSTitois uLAtT.
