'I'iiu. kingdom of; Persia, under tlie

small province with about one huiv
dred and twenty thousaud men, but
during tlie reign of ills son Cyrus, it
expanded to the dimensions of a 1 uigh ty

the river Tigris, to.Iudtw, and from
the Caspian sea on the north to the

one of file wealthiest and most power
ful nations of ancient or modern time.
The cause of their great success and

Marat was In Ids bath writing ; his
countenance was much disfigured by

hours ilally in mineral baths. Tlie tub
was covered with hoards, which served
him as a table oil which many of his
infamous decrees were written. He
heard the servants refuse admittance

' CHINESE A IllTllMKTlC. A COITC
poiHlent of the London Atluwexm
says, the Chinese have a most ingen
ious method of reckoning, by tlie aid
of the fingers; performing all the op
erations of addition, subtraction, mul
tiplication and division, with nimi
froni one up to one hundred thousand.
Every finger of the left hand repre
sents nine figures, as follows : The
little finger represents units, the ring
linger tens; the middle finger hun
dreds ; the fore finger thousands ; the
thumb tens of thousands. When the
three joints of each Anger are touched
from tlie palm toward tlie tip, they
cotiut one, two, aud three of each
of tlie denominations as above
named. Four, five and siv are count
ed on tlie back of the finger joints in
the same way ; seven, eight and nine
are counted on tlie right side of the
joints from tin; )alm to the tip. The
tore finger ofthe right hand is used as
tlie pointer. Thus li'H would be in
dicated by first touching the joint of
tlie fore finger ; next the band on tlie
outside. Tlie reader will be able to
make further examples for himself.
The writer alluded to asserts that the
correctness of Chinese computation
thus performed is proverbial.

with this result. It i said that San- I

a pure and even an exemplary lite.

no tobacco. He wasscmpuToasly faith- j

able and attractive disposition aud
Siitlemanly manners. They say that
really did not care to accumulate
wealth, and had none but kindly feel

was his inexhaustible passion for mid
