It is not generally known that panes of glass can be cut under water with ease to almost anv shape by means of a pair of scissors. Two thing, however, are nec essary to success First, the glass must be kept quite level in the water while the scissors are applied ; and secondly, to avoid risk, It Is better to perform the cut ting by cropping off small pieces at the corners or along the edges, thus reducing the form gradually to a proper shape, for if ant attempt to cut the glass at once to a proper shape, as one would cut a card board, it will most likely fracture where It is not wanted. The softer glawes cut best ; and the scissors need not be very sharp. When the operation goes on well, tlie glass breaks away from the blade In small nieces la a straight line from the blades.

He Is supposed to regard this sub stance as a new metal, to which he pro poses to give the name of Vesblum, the ancient name ot Vesuvius. M. Leooq de Bolsbaudran has. been awarded by the Academy ot Sciences of Harls tlie Lacaze prize for clieiulstry for his discovery of the new metal gallium. and M. Leroux has received the Lacaze prize for physics for his magneto-electric machines and his resen relies on peripolar Induction and on chronographs. The amount ot sslt contained in the sea (according to the best authorities) amountt to four hundred thousand billion cubit feet; which, if piled op. would form a mass 140 miles long, as many broad, and as many high ; or otherwise disposed, would cover the whole of Europe, islands, seas and all to tlie hisrht ot the summit of Mt.

The pnuematic tubes have for some time gained tl day over electricity m the carrying of messages over short distances. but this will rive it its revenge, for elec tricity will be the motive power. These small engines Imve already been tried, and have run with a load ot fourteeu pounds of messages at the rate of fifteen tulles an liour. These results ha ye been consider ed as quite satisfactory. Deatna.

Sometimes tlie serous portion. ot the Wood ecares through tlie pores ot tlie vessels suffldentlv to occasion a similar result Free-livers are especially liable to appo plexy. They keep the vessels too full and the current too strong.

Besides tlie vessel, ot the brain are subiec- tml tn a sneetal strain In conseauepce of the contraction ot It vessels during sleep and the audden inrush of blood on waking.

It was past midnight the lights on the stone bridge which crossed the river Main at Frankfort were still burning, though tbe footsteps of .passengers bad died away for some time on its pavement, when a young man approached the bridge from tlie town with hasty strides. At the same time another man, advanced In years, was coining toward bioa from Sacbenhauseu, the well-known suburb on tho opposite side of tbe river. The two bad not yet met, when the latter turned from his path aud went toward the parapet from the bridge into the Main. The young man followed him quickly and laid hold of bim. Sir," said he, "I think yon want to drown yourself." "What is that to you f" "I was going to ask you to do me the favor to wait a few minutes and allow me to Join you Let us draw close to each other, and, arm In arm, - bike the. leap together. The Idea of making tbe Jour ney with a perfect stranger, who has chanc ed to come for the same purpose, is really rather interesting.' For many years I have not made a request ot any human being do not refuse me this one. which must be my last." Tlie young man held out his hand. His companion took It. He continued with enthusiasm : "So be it ; arm in arm. I do not ask who you are, good or bad come, let us drown." The older ot the two, who hr.d at first been In such a hurry to end bis exist ence, now restrained the impetuosity" of the younger. Stop, sir," said he, while his weary eyes tried to examine the features ot his companion. "Stop, sir. You seem to me to be too young to leave life in this way ; for a man of your years life must have still bright prospects." Bright prospects I In the midst ol rottenness and decay, vice and corruption ? Come, let us end it ! "And so young ! Let me go alone, and do you remain here. Believe me. there are many good and honest people who could tender life charming to you. Seek them and you are sure to find them." "Well, if life presents itself to you in hues so bright, I am surprised that you wish to leave it." Oh, I am only a poor, old sickly man. unable to earn anything, and who can endure no longer that his only child, au nngcl ot a daughter, should work day aid nisht to maintain him. To allow this longer I niut be a tyrant, a barbarian.' "What, sir :" exclaimed the other, yon have an only daughter sacrificing hersvlt for your snke ? And with what patience, what sweet ness aud love, what perseverance ! I see her sinking under her toll and her depri" vatlons. and not a word of complaint escapes tier pallid lips. Slie works and starves, and still has a word of love for her father." And you commit suicide! Are you mad ?" Dare I murder that angel ? The thought pierces my heart like a dagger," said the old uinn, sobbing. Sir, you must have supper with me ; I see a tavern open yonder. Come, you must tell me your history, and I will tell you ml ne. There Is no occasion for you to leap into the river. I am a rich man ; your daughter will no longer have to work, and shall not. starve." Tlie old man allowed himself to be 'Iragged along by bis companion. In a few minutes they were seated at a table in the tavern, with refreshments before tnem, ana each examining curiously the features of tbe. other. Refreshed by viands, tlie old man began thus : My history is soon told. I was a mercantile man : but fortune never favor ed me. I had no money myself, aud loved and married a poor girl. I could never begin business on my account. I took a situation as bookkeeper, which I held until I became useless from age, and younger men were preferred to me. Thus my cir cumstances were always circumscribed, but my domestic happiness was complete. My wife, an angel ot love, kindness and fondness, was good and pious, active and affectionate ; and my, daughter a true Image of her mother. But age and Illness have brought me to the last extremity. and my conscience revolts against the Idea of the best child In the world sacrific ing hei life tor an old and useless fellow. cannot have much longer to live, and I hope tlie Lord will pardon me for cutting off a few days or weeks from my life in order to preserve that of my dear Bertha." "You are a fortunate man, my friend," exclaimed tlie young man. What you call misfortune is sheer nonsense, and can b cured. To-morrow I shall make my will, and you shall be the heir to my possessions, - and to-morrow night I shall take the leap from the Main bridge alone. But before I leave this world I must see Bertha, for I am anxious to look upon one who Is worthy of the name ot a human being." "Sir, what can : have made you so tin. happy at this early age f " said tbe old man, moved with compassion. I am the only sou ol one of the richest men In Frankfort. - My fattier died five years sgo and left me heir to an immense fortune. From that moment every one that has come in contract with me has endiMvored to deceive and defraud me. I was a child In innocence and confiding, My education had not been neglected, and I possessed my tnotlier'e loving heart. My friends, to whom I. opened my heart, betrayed me, and then laughed at my simplicity ; in time I gathered experience, and my heart was filled with distrust. was betrothed to a ricli heiress, possess ed of all fine accomplishments. I adored her with enthusiasm, and love, I thought, would repay me tor every disappointment But I soon saw that sht wished to make tue ber slave, and yoke all other men besides to lier triumphal chariot. I broke tbe engagement and aelected a poor but charming girl a sweet, Innocent being. as I thought, who would be my life's own angel. Alas l 1 found her one day bidd ing adieu with tears and kisses to a youth whom she loved. She had accepted me for my wealth only. My peace of mind vanished. I sought diversion In travel. Eveiywhere I found the same bollownesa, the same treachery, tho same misery. In short, I became disgusted with' life, and resolved this night to pot an end to tbe pitiable farce." "Unfortunate r young flauo,": said ..the other with tears of sympathy. "I pity yon. I confess I have been more fortunate than you. I possessed a wife and daughter who came forth pure and immaculate front the hand of the Creator. The one has return ed to Him In the whiteness ot ber soul, and so will the other." Give me your address, old man,, and permit me to visit your daughter to-morrow. Alo give me your word of honor that you will not Inform her, or Insinuate in any manner that I am a rich man." The old man held out his hand. I give you my word. I am anxious to convince yon that I have spoken the truth. My name Is William Schmidt, and there Is my address," giving him at tlie same time a bit of paper which he drew from bis pocket. And my name Is Karl Traft. J. am the son ot. Anton lraic lane tnese oanK notes, but on one condition, that you do not'Jeavo this house until I fetch you trom it. Waiter ! a bedroom for this eentle.man. You require rest, Herr Schmidt. Good-night. To-morrow you will see me again." II. In one of the narrow and Ill-lighted streets ot Sachenhansen, In an attic of a lottv and unsightly house, sat a blonde about twenty years of age, busily em- ployed with her needle. The furniture of I the room was clean and tasteful. The girl's whole dress would not have brought many kreutzers but every article fitted ber as well as if it had .cost hundred Her fair looks shaded a face brightened by a pair of eyes of heavenly blue. The spirit of order, modesty and cleanliness reigned in everything around her. Her features were delicate, like those ot one noble born, her eyes betrayed sleepiness and anxiety, and ever and anon a deep si eh rose from the maiden's breast. Sud denly steps were lieard on - tlie staircase. and ber face lighted with joy. She listen ed nnd doubt seemed to shadow ber brow, Then there came a knock at the door. which made her tremble so much that slie almost wanted tlie courage to say "Come in." A young man, shabbily dressed. entered tlie room and made a low and awkward bow. I beg pardon, miss," said be," "does Herr Schmidt live here P" 'Yes, sir ; what is yonr pleasure P" "Are you his daughter, Bertha P" "lam." 'Then it is you that I seek. I am from your fathSV." Then for heaven's sake, where Is he ? Something must have happened be has stayed away all night." "The misfortune Is not very great. "Oh. mv poor, poor father ! What shall I hear ?" The young man seemed to observe these visible marks of anxiety with great interest He raid . "Do not be frightened ; it is nothing of great importance. Your father met last night with an old ncaualntance, who Invited him to a tavern. They had Btipper tosrether. but when tbe landlord came for the bill your father's friend had decamped and left him to pay the score. He had not sufficient money for this, and now the host will not let him go until be is paid, and declares that until he gets his money be will send him to prison." "To prison !" exclaimed the girl. "Can you tell me how much the bill comes to P" Three florins and a half." . ) Oh, God !" sighed the girl. "All I have does not amount to more than one florin, but I will go ; at once1 to Madame Berg and beg of her to advance me the money." 'Who Is Madame Berg P" The milliner for whom I work." "But If Madame Berg does not advance the money what then P" The girl burst into tears. 'I am afraid she will refuse. I alread owe her one florin, and she is very hard." 'For what purpose did you borrow the money yon owe her P" -The girl hesitated to reply. : "You may trust me." 'Well, my father i is very weak, and requires strengthening.' I borrowed the money to get a quarter of a fowl for him." 'Under these circumstances I fear Madame Berg will not give you any. I possess nothing. Have you any valuables more f Here Is one florin, but that is all upon which we could raise some money. Bertha considered for a moment. I havo nothing." said she at length, "but my poor mother's prayer book. On tier dentil-bed she entreated me not to part with it and there is nothing in tlie world I hold more sacred then ber memory, aud NO. 38. tlte promise I gave her ; but still, for my father's sake, I must not hesitate." With - trembling hand she took the book down from the shell. - O, sir." she said, 'Muring many a sleepless night I have been a ecus- tomed to enter the secret thoughts of my heart on the blank leaves at the end of the book.. I hope no one will ever know " whose writings they aie ; you will promise " me that t" . -" "Certainly. Bertha. X 'Will take care that your secrets are not profaned. But . now get ready, that we may go." j While she left the room to put on her bonnet aud shawl, Karl Traft (for tbe young man who was no other than our. hero) glanced over the writing In the book, and bis eyes filled with tears of emotion and deltght as he read the outpourlftgvof pure and pious heart ; and when theyt- . had left tbe bonse together, and she was ; walking beside him with a dignity of which she seemed unconscious, he cast v i . upon ber looks ot respect UlS admiration. - They went first to Madame Berg, who did not have the advance required, but assured the young man that Bertha was an angel. Certainly this praise Mr. Traft valued higher than the money be asked for. ' They pawned the book, and the re quired sum was" made . up. Bertha was overjoyed. But if you spend all that money to day," remarked the young man "on what - will yon live to-morrow f" .r I do not know, but I trust in God. I shall work the whole night through." When tbey . went ' to the tavern the young man went first to prepare eld Mr, ' Schmidt for the part he wished him to act; i then be fetched Bertha. It Is Impossible to describe the joy be felt when be saw the . young girl throw herself in ber lather's arms and press him to" her heart. ; She paid the bill and triumphantly led ' him home. Traft accompankd 'them, and said he had a few more kreutzers in - his ' pocket ; she had better go and get some thing to eat. It was late before Traft went home that night, but the leap from the Main bridge was no more thought of. He . came to the' house every evening, he said, to share witti them his scanty earnings. About a fortnight after, as lie was going away one evening, ne said to uertna t Will you become my wife P I am only poor clerk, but I am honest and upright. Bertha blushed aud cast her eyes to tbe ground. A few days after; the young couple. simply but respectably attired, and ac companied by Herr Schmidt, went to church, where they were married In a qnlet way. When they came out man and , wife an elegant carriage was standing a the door, and a footman in rich livery., down the step. Come," said the happy husband to hi? bewildered wife, who looked at him with a maze men t. Before she could utter a word tbe three were seated In the carriage driving away at a quick pace. Tbe carrirge stopped before a splendid house In the best part ot Frankfort. Tliey were reeved by a number of domestics, wbo efJucted them to apartments decorated for them In the moat costly manner.
