For herself she could almost havs cowerâ€" ed down in the alley and starved, but she could not see the sick man suffer. She had never deliberately asked for charity before, but the time had come in which she had no other alternative. "‘There was Signor Cleveland, the Engâ€" lish milord, at the Vills Castellani, on the Arno," she said, after a moment‘s deliberâ€" ation. "He was an Englishman, and peoâ€" p‘e said he had married an Engiish wife." "Is it far out of the city 2" "Not far," Eligia answered ; "a mile or so.

Ten years have passed away since the morning when Fauny Vivian so resolutely seperated her future from that of her brother, and Geoffrey Glenn lay ill in a staffy little lodging in the least promising portion of the lovely city of Florence. Fate had not treated him well since he sided with his wife in that memorable family quarrel. And so the young widow left her broâ€" ther‘s home leading little Linda by the hand. Fanny Vivian held out her cold hand to her brother. "CGood bye,Geofiry," she said simply. "We used to be all in all to each other, but sinea your wife has come between us you have never been the scime." Mrs.Glenn bridled and drew herself up. "I never heard a case yet of listerers hearâ€" ing any good of them selves!" said she, with a somewhat embarassed smile. "But I cerâ€" tainly have said nothing that I didn‘t mean!" | * Lady or no lady, T‘ll not have her in this house!t" cried Mrs. Glenn, angrily. "And if she thinksâ€"" ’ Di it that moment the somewhat stormy diologue was internpted by the opeuing of , the door which led intoan adjoiuing room, and a tail, sweet frced young woman in widow‘s weeds entered, leading a little child by the hai.d. "Geotfry," sarl she, in tremulus accenis.. "Iâ€"was writing in the other room, and heard it all. And, whilo 1 thank you for' your kindness, I want Clara to distinetly understand that I have no favors to ask of ‘ her. "Clare, hush, "You forget, it Vivian is a lady "A teacher!" sneered Mrs. Glenn. "Oh, . yes ; that would suit Fannie Vivian exactly i â€"to go smirking and smiling into people‘s | houses." ’ No means!" echoed the lady. "But that is means. _ Didn‘t I eut out that adâ€" vertisement for a housekeeper in the counâ€" ‘try and send it to her. And didn‘t she | send it back with an insolent message, that !she didn‘t choose any menial position ! ’ Menial, indeed! After that I wash my hands | of both of them." "And," desperately added Mr. Glonn, "I thought as our spare chamber wasn‘t occupied at present, you would invite Fanny and her child to stay here as a sort of headquarters while she tried to carn something as a teacder." "But, my love, Fanny was never very strong." "Never was fiddlesticks !" retorted Mrs. Glenn, growing red in the face. "Well, we cannot always foresee the fnture," mildly remarked her busband. "Here she is now, a widow, and destitute, with tuat little child on her hands and no means of providiug for it!" ""Whose fault was it that she married snch a poor bargain?" sharply questioned Mrs. Glenn. "Not your‘s I‘m shure." "Well, yes ; but you see, my dear, Fanny has been unlucky. She married at eighâ€" teen, and that ne‘er doâ€"well husband of hers contrived to spend it all before he died." "Nonsense!" said Mrs. Glenn; she had just as much money as you, when you both startcd in the worl3, hadn‘t she?" [ "I really think we might do something {Glenn toiled al for her, Clara."

Dr. Barrie, of Guelph, was disputed. It was sought by the relatives ot the de ceased Dr. Barrie to set aside that portion of the will which bequeathed & large porâ€" tion of the property of deceased to the } First Presbyterian church of Guelph, of which Rev. Robert Torrence is pastor. The will was sought to be set aside on the grounds that the testator was incapable, through sickness, of understanding the purport of the document when it was exâ€" ecuted. His Lordship considored that the deceased was in a fit condition to arrange lus affairs, and therefore upheld the terms of the will, with the exception of the mortgages on real estate which were beâ€" queathed to the Presbyterian church. The costs of the suit,which will be considerable, are to come out of the funds which were not disposed of by the testator in his will. "Never speak of it again, Clara," maid Mrs. Clevcland, tenderly kissing her, for she knew that God‘s hand had punished the carelessly uttered woris. "Fanny," whispercd she, "will you for. give me." "Forgive you, Ciara? For what ?" "For the wicked words I spoke that day when you parted from us; for my cold, cruel selfishness." That night when I"Annj' came to see ifall was comfortable in the invalid‘s sick chainâ€" bor, Clara followed her out into the corriâ€" dor. "I shall get well now, Fanny, for I honâ€" estly believe that my trouble was as much of the mind as of the body." "I consider Fanny‘s relatives as said Mr. Cleveland, cordially.

She had accepted an engagement as governess with a familygoing to Italy, takâ€" ing Linda with her. Before dark Geoffry Glenn was comfort ably established in one of the great airy rooms of the Villa Castellani, waited on and nursed by Linda Vivian, now grown a tall girl of fourteen. And Fanny, r'.um’ngithe bell for refresnâ€" ments, threw her arms around the sisterâ€"inâ€" law she had never expected to see. She started back with a ery of surprise as her eyes fell on Mrs. Glenn‘s wan and faded face. «"Clara!" she exclaimed. "My God! It is Fanny Vivian!" shriekâ€" ed Mrs. Glonn, scarcely believing her eyes. And with some dignity she followed the man into asmall ante room, where a gorâ€" , e s Persian rug covered the marble floor. Presently a light footstep sounded on the echoing pavement of the hall without, and a tall lady drossed in white muslin, with floatingr ribbons, entered the room. "I have no card," eaid Clara, coloi’imz. "Tell Mrs. Cleveland that it is au Eoglish woman who wishes to see her." "I wish to see Mrs. Cleveland," poor Clara answered. * ‘*Your card, if you please, ma‘am," said the butler. "Did you want to see Mr. Cleveland® he asked in accents that betrayed his Eng. lish nationality, and not without a rather contemptous glance at Mrs. Glenn‘s dusty boots and threadbare poplin dress. As she stood hesitating, a respectable, white haired old butler came out to the door. But when at last she reached the magâ€" nificent mansion, whose marble callonades rose from the groves of Orange oleandcr, her heart, like that of the Queen of Sheba, failed within her.

Mr. Simpson, Lions Head, who sustained considerable loss by a fire lately, has been presented with $80, as a token‘of syimnpathy. A correspondent of the Philidelphia Times thus described the heir of the Rus sian throne:â€"The Czarewitch <of Russia is hardly so tall as his futher was in bis best days, ut he must be nearly, if not 'I quite, six feet in height, and is remarkably + deep chested and broad shouldered, with |all the appearance of great strongth. His iight grey eyes resemble those of his mother‘s relations at Hesse Darmstadt ‘ miocre than his fatber, who has the dark blue eyes which are to be seen in the pic tures of Alexander I, Paul, Peter the Great and seyeral other members of the House of Homanoff. ‘The shape of his head is rather peculiar ; one of those fitted by a large hat, which, when worn, appears out of proportion to the comparatively small face below. â€" This form of head may have been produced by sevoral generations of despotioi power, as Alexander II. has more than is generally seen, though not as much as his ‘ son. A small mouth with extremely good teeth, which he only shows when he laughs, is the Czarewitch‘s beat features; bis hair, is auburn, and his complexion very fair. In St. Petersburg he usually appears most correctly attired in uniform ; but when enâ€" joving & holiday among his wife‘s relations, he may be seen in a very looseâ€"waisted suit of shephard‘s plaid, a black te, a white bat, and with neither gloves, ring nor watch. That he is no carpet soldier;is evident from the mark of frostbites on the third and fourth fingers of the lefé hand, and a slight scar on his temple, where a bullet grazed his head in one of the battles of the Turkâ€" ish war. The Emperor walked in Imperial soliâ€" tude, bearing alone his filial sorrow and Swate enres, and symbolizing in this ‘lnst respect his unique pesition. The Emperor was drgssed in a General‘s uniform, wearing the iibbon of the Order of St Andrew over his shoulder. Followâ€" ing the Emperor at a respectful distance came the Minister of the Household, the Minister of War, and three oflicers on duty. Next in order followed the Grand Dukes and Princes, according to preccedence, with the foe‘zn Princes. i The procession consisted in all of thirteen sections, comprising 172 groups,to describe which would occupy many eclamus. A long line of officers in fulluniform bore, on various eolored cushions embroidered in gold, the badges and decorations conferred by forcign monarchs and princes on the late Czarâ€"some simple circlets 0/ plain gold; other diadetms, literally brilliant, emâ€" eralds, and rubies of Kasan. After these, in the care of functionaries of the second ’cluss, came the crowns of the Kingdoms of Georgia, Siberia, Poland, Astrakan, and Kasan, with the Imperial globe, septre aud erown, followed by two Masters and the: Grand Masters of Ceremonies, all these orâ€"| ders and insigniaâ€"bearers and officials being | flanked on each side by a batallion of eadets | from Sr.Pauls Military School, murching} in single file.

Steel has recently been made in Glasâ€" gow of most extraordinary hardness and cutting power, when used for tools in turnâ€" ing operations. In one instance, the tool did thirteen times the amount of cutting off an ordinary tool of earbon steel. The process of making this new steel is at pre sent kept secret, but there is reason to beâ€" liove that it is boron steel. 8. A new substitute of science for silver. Minargent,recently inventedin Paris,and which may be compared to silver, possesses nineâ€"tenths of its whiteness, malleability, ductility, tenacity, sonorousness and denâ€" sity, while it has superior metallie lustre, wears better, is less linble to be rcted on by the emanations of sulphuretted hydroâ€" gen,and is less fusable than silver. â€" Minarâ€" gent may be used for all purposes to which silver or other white motals or alloys are applicable. It is composed of one thousand parts of pure copper,seven bundred parts of pure nickel, fifty parts of pure tungsten,ten parts of pure aluminiam. The inventors Jo not, however, limit themselves to the exact proportion given. The chieffeatures of the minargent consist in the alloy of pure fungsten and aluminium. ‘The metal is formed into ingots, and moulded in‘ sand, in the ordinary way. 0. 8. | w. aâ€" No. 2. e | _ Science opens our eyes to the pure knowâ€" ,. | ledge of things, and interests us with acâ€" ,. | curate details of them.

Interesting facts in regard to glass.â€" +| Taken in connection with the glass exâ€" e | hibited in Japan, and said to be over 1000 a | years old, an article by M. de Foville in the Economiste Francaise may be read | with interest. ‘That gentleman says that : France long remained indebted to Italian . art id the matter of glass, although in the â€" sixth century dripking glasses were manuâ€" _ factured at Paris Quequengrogne. But , in _ 1842 we ind a Daup} n paying for a little | glass service for his daughter Dirna the price of an ox. Some of the most eurious windows in the Gothic Cathedrals date from the thirteenth, twelith, and even eleventh centuries, but it was only under Louis XIV. that France appropriated the secret of those exquisite productions which Venice sold her for their weight in gold. ‘ There are now in France 175 glass manuâ€" f | factories, withoat counting seven manufacâ€" !H.nries of looking glasses. Every year, on | | an ayerage, 125,000,000 bottles are made, ‘aud 50,000,000 of these, filled with good wine, find their way abroad, together with | . | about 20,000,000 empty bottles. F. orty > ‘ years ago 100 bottles cost about 80f.; now they cost half that price. According to M. lde Foville, the inventor of glass deserves ' a rank with printing and steam as an agent of civilization and refinement, for it rendered indoor life possible. There are proofs, he says, that glass existed in the early days of Christianity, but it was an exâ€" ceptional luxury which did not survive the fall of the Roman Empire. The window pane reappeared at a later period in the churches under the form of small lozenges | n of equivocal transparence. At the castle of the Duke of Northumberland in 1567, | « says the writer, thore were a few glass windows, which used to be put in when | a his Grace was at home ; and not a century ' ago there existed in France a corporation | ) of "Chassissiers," whose profession was to | w put in windows of ciled papor. It was only in 1710 tuat glass panes in wooden frames l A were used. +1 Whole No. 160. Things Viewed in the Light of Science.
