An inrestigation waa ordered by a committee of the Hooae. of which James L,. Orr. of South Carolina, waa the chairman. Simon- ton, in answer to the question, \\Who m^e these commnnicationa to you?\ replied that he could not ai:swer with out a dishonorable breach of confi- dence,\ The committee gave him five days for reflection, and then rccaUed him when the same question was pro- pounded. and he repeated his declina- tion to answer. For this refusal and contempt of authority Simonton waa brought before the bar of tho Uonie to show cause why he should not bo isbed for contempt.

But the little gentleman's fund of amusement seemed equal to the demand, and Freddy was iu no hurry to go to his mother. \By-and-by the trun atopi}cd. and the conductor called out, -Fifteen min- utes for refreshments.\* •Will you sit here while Fm gone, if I'll bring you an app'-e?\ aaked the lit- tle gentleman of Freddy. \Yes I will, answered Freddy. Then the little gentleman vreut out, and presently he came back witli some- thing wrapped in a paper, and a cup of steaming, fragrant tea. -If you'd drip.K tbis, ma'am. I think it would make your head feci better. Mother says a cup of tea does her more good, when she has a headache, than lything else.\ \i'ou are the kindest, most thought- ful little gentleman I have ever metr lie said, as she took the tea. I smiled. She had hit upon the same title for him that 1 had been giving him. \And here are some sandwiches,\ he said, opening the paper. \I've got one, and an apple for Freddy.\ When she had drank the tea he car- ried tho cup back. It does make me feel better,\ she said to me. \The boy s kindness gave it a riavor that makes it an agreeable medicine. What a fine, manly little fellow he is! I hope my boy-will be like him.\ Tho little Rontleman heard that, and I could SCO -what a glad look i ame into his face. Ho had done a kindly dee<l. and lipr -words of appreciation pleased him, as it always pleasos all of us to know that those -wliom -we help are grateful for onr kindnesses. I saw my littlo gentleman perform more nets of kindness that long after- noon than I have time to tell vein abont now. Kverything lie did was done in a quiet, unobtrusive way that showed it was done from instincts of true gentle- nianline.s.s, and not from a desire to im- press a sense of bis helpfulness npon those he was attentive to. It -was after dark when the -woman and her <-hiId rea'-hed their stopping- place. When she prepared to leave tho car, he heliwd her to gather her wraps and bundles toRether, and shouldered the sleepy Fredtly to carry him for her to tho platform. I followed them to the car-door. \You havo been very kind to me,\ she said, as she pave him her hand at parting. \I might tell you that 1 thank you, but you wouldn't know from the words how irrateful I feeL\ Then she stooped down and kissed him. \Here she added, patting some- thing in his hand, \I want yon to got you a book with this, and write in it, * From Fre-.ldv and his mother, ^ -.th kindlv thoughts for their little friend,\ and when yon see the l-ook yon will think how 'your kindness helped us, and the remembrance of it will help yon.

A French physician and savant says that anitnal.H are as good practitioners of medicine as a majoritv of tho hu- man a|M:cies, and that in hygiene man mav take a les.ion from them. Kle- phiinU. stags, birds and ants wash themselves, or bathe. Some animals get rid of jmrasites by the use of dust, mud. or c-lay. Those suffering from fever restrict their diet, keep quiet, seek darkness and airy places, drink water, and sometimes i>lnnge into it. If a dog loses his appetite he eats \dog's pra-Ki*.\ Sheep when ill seek ont certain herbs, and puss finds an emetic or a purgative in a certain species ol grass or herbs.

A dog, on being stung on the muzzle by a viper, plunged his head repeatedly for seT- eral days in running water and recov- ered. A sporting dog was run over by a carriage. During three weeks in -wm- ter he romained lying in a brook, where hia food waa taken to him, and be also recovereti. A terrier dog hurt its right eye. He remained Iving under a counter, avoid- ing light and heat, althouab he bad preTioualT been in the habit of keeping oloae to the fire. He rested, abitained from food, licked hia pew, and applied it to the wounded eye. [ered him into the custoily ol tho Sergeant-at-.Arms. He was kept i a room at the Xational Hotel, where li boarded, and was visited by his -wife and friends. He persistently refused to give the names of those members tc whom he had referred, and the House, on tho last day of the session, expelled him from his reporter's seat on the floor. During the debate on the Simonton case, a Ilepresentativo named I'aine rose in his place and intimated that he had been approached with the offer of a pecuniary bribe by another member oixne House, who, as a Inena and ad- vocate of a certain measure then i>cnd- ing l>efore Congress—tho Minnesota land bill—had songht by such corrupt means to secure bis vote. This creat^ quite a sensation, and it -«-as soon -whis* pered about that it was Mr. Francis^ S. Kdwards, a Itepresentativo from Xew York, who had made tne offer. '1 bt case waa referred to tho investigating committee, -which, after examination, reported a resolution near tho close ol tho session, stating that Mr- Edwards bad attempted to make Mr. I'aine vote contrary to the dictates of his judgment and conscience, by holding out a pecu* niary consideration for the supjiort of the bill, and declaring that he be ex- pelled from tho House. Mr. Edward.i, after the resolution for his expulsion had been read, addressed the House, declaring that he \was as free in hit o-wn heart from any interest to do -wrong as any member of tho body.\ The House, nevertheless, expelled him. Another case was that of O. B. Mat- teson, a member from Sow Y'ork, who xvas charged with l>eing one of those who had entered into corrupt combina- tions for the imrpose of passing land jobs. .Tames S. I'ike, correspondent of tho New York Tribune, afterward member of Congrt-ss, testified that Matteson had said that ho and his a-s- sociates had said, when a railroad bill was before Congress: \-4 few of you clever iellows must have a section of land. Some of these sections are pretty valuable, worth as much as SIO an acre.\ It was also shown thatstovk in a manufacturing company was to be distributed among those xrho aided in securing do.sired legislation, and that a check for $1,000 had been s^'nt to Hor- ace Greeley for the same purpose. Mr. Matteson claimed to havo been seizcl with -what waa known as the National Hotel disease, and did not apjicar bo- fore tho committee at first, .-\fter hearing a good deal of evidence, the committee reported a resolution, which the House passed, stating that Mr. Matteson had falsely and willfully as- d defamed the character ol Aaccdote ef Bhker Siatpea. When Bishop Simmn was President of Indiana .\abury University he occa- sionally preached in the adjommg towns and villages. Upon one occasion he visited a neighborhood where a number of Methodists had settled, and was the guest of a brother named Swank. He had immigrate«l from Ken- tuckv, and had brought with him the means of purchasing a fine csUte. and at the time of which I write was very prominent as a cittzcn, a man of wealth, and a church member. After dinner on Saturday Mr. Swank invited the Uishop to walk out, and look over his improvements and lands. Thev looked at his glos.sy impirted cattle, at hia numerous beautiful horses, and bis flocks of slieop, over bis wide meadows, and luxuriant fields of corn and wheat. In the presence of these broad acres, where every clod blesaed its owner, and where every creature -aas basking in tho sunshine of tho highest enjoyment of which iu nature was capable, the I'.ishop expressed the greatest pleas- ure. -Brother Swank,\ said be, \yon ought to l>e one of the most grateful of msn; God has filled with all goo<l things yonr basket and store. Where did von obtain the means for all these impr'ovementa and purchases? Did you not tell me that you sold laud in Kcntuckvr\ \O yes; all I had there I sold beforo I left,'\ bo replied. \Had yon negroes. Brother Swank?\ \O ves,\ he answered. \I sold them all; I could not bring them here.\ \.\nd you sold your negroes; and some of 'them members of the same church with vourself, were they not \O yes,\ replied Mr. Swank; \how could I do otherwise? Kvcryboily, members of all churches, sold their ! slaves. What else could I do with them?\ \Y'on could have emancipated them. Brother Swank: taken them, if neces- sary. to a free Stale, Ijonght land for thc'm, and paid them back somctliing of what thev earnetl for you. Brother Swank,\ said the Bishop, stopping and looking most earnestly into liis face, \voii want to I MJ saved, don't you ?\ • \Certainly I do,\ replied .^lr. Swank, rather crustily. \Then said the Bishop, \go and find those negroes, and bny them back; lor in selling them yon sold .Icsus Christ your Lord; for what you did to the least of His brethren you did to Him.\ Mr. Swank made no reply, walked bome in silence, did not attend the svening meeting, went not with tlie Uwbop on the Sabbath, and never ea. tered the church again. The bnncd ipear pierced the heart of his covetous- ness, and its point developed a cancer that never healed.—/Tec. J. ./. Mnrkt. sailed tho House, and had proved himself un- worthy to be a memfier thereof. Thif was followcfl by a resolntion^ for hi» expulsion, but prior to any action upor it he resigned his seat, and the resolu- tion waa laid upon tho table. Mean- while Jfr. Matteson had been re-elect- o<l to tho Thirty-fifth Congreai.. When that iKxly met, it was proposed to ex- pel him. The resolution was referred to a committee, before whom Mr. Mat- teson made a vigorous defense, and a majority of tho committee reported a r(;solution that it was inoxpedient for tho House to take any further action on the subject. Among many interesting incidents in tho life of \Earthquake Allen,\ a aobriquct which his powerful voice gained him, was his account of his visit to Andrew Jackson, late on the night of March :i, 1W.17. Jlr. Allen bad come to Washington to outer the Senate at noon the next day, when the Presidential term of Gen. .fackson would expire. On reaching tho White House Mr. Allen, who waa well known to tho attendants, waa Shown into tho President's bed-chamber. Chief Jus- tice Taney and Senator Forsythe, of Georgia, afterward Minister to Spain and Secretarv of SUte, were alreadv ill the room', and Jackson hunself, active and to a certain extent restless, as uaual, atood in the middle of the floor smoking a abort com-cnb pipe. He congratulated Allen warmly upon his election to the Senate, and then callins to a yoong Irishman who acted u hia body servant and waiUr, turned to bis Tiaitora and aaid: 'Gentlemen, I think the wni warrant me in breaking over one of my own rules.

At night tho dog guards them in his ken- nel, and by day ho scratches up food for them. He' also shares his meals with his ado.ited family. .^n escaping thief in San Marcos, Texas, was pursue i by a savage bull- dog. When the dog had almost reach- ed the man, the latter pointed to a cow near by, and induced the dog to think that was the game his master wanted. While the dog was worrying tho cow the thief got away. Charley Shoehan, a 13-year-old Iwy of 1 afavette. Ind., wo:it in bathing, ac- companied bv his dog. Tho boy conld not swim. While paddling aliout m water nearly up to his nock, tho dog climbed on his shoulders and pnshi-d him down. As fast as he lifted his heail ab jve tho surface, the dog pushed him under. The boy was drowned. A man of I.ewiston, 51c., was an- noyed by a thief that made almost nightlr raids on his woodpile- He watched for tho ofTendor, and was as- tonished to see a neigblior's Scwfound- land dog appear and carry off a sti.-k of wood in his month. After deposit- ing the stick in his master's yard, the dog returned for another, and met hi. death. •lake AVaUon, of Hweetwatcr, Ha., while bunting deer with half a dozen hounds, came upon a l>ear in a thicket. Ho woundeil the monster, but it rushed at him and was almost on him when one of tho hounds rushed in front of his master and seb»Hi tho bear by tho throat. Tho brave dog mado a gallant fight, but waa soon killed. Mr. Wat- son, whose life had been saved by the dog, reloailed his gnn during the struggle, and killed the bear.

M. at a meeting of the Societo Medicale d'Amiens, indicated a certain sign of death, aimple and tmst- worthr. After pricking the akin with a needle tho puncture remains open, just as when a piece of leather is pricked. On tho living body, even if the blood does not come to the snface, as would happen if the person waa hysterical, the pin-prick closes at once, and does not leave the slightest trace. \ NEW Style of trundle for moving goo<ls, castings, etc., about a store, shop, or foundry, consists of three balls two and 'one-half inches in diameter, whose centers are held in position in the angles of a triangle. Those balls move between two diskf that are rivetwl to an iron plate which connects the xvhole affair. They yield readily to the stress exerted upon them, whatever bo its direction, since any two of Uiem -wUl pivot around tho third. Prof. Stamford, tho English Edison, has discox-ereil a new substance which promises to become a popular article of commerce, \.\lgine.\ a residuum of macerated fucas (sea-tang), combines the qualities of a mordant, an esculent, and a superlative adhesive. It fixes a variotv of colors used by cotton-dyers. In certain combinations it is as nutri- tious as grape-sugar, while in one of its forms its adhesiveness cxceeds that of gum-arabic not less than twenty-six times. W HEN mounted and swung against the bkv the great Lick telescope will have a focus of fifty-five feet leDgth— nearlv fifteen feet longer than the largMt one ever before made. It will be a refractor, which means that the image is formed dircctly to the eye by the object-glass, as contradistinguished from tho Gregorian and Herschelian telescopes. Tho largest instrument over known of the latter stvle was Dr. Herschel's. The tube lacked bnt eight inches of being forty feet in length. A Trsr for the qualitv of leather, specially that used for belting, la given in tho lievue ItiduaTiehe. A small piece is immersed in good acetic acid vinegar; if tho leather has l»een perfectlv tanne<l, and is, therefore, of good quality, it will remain immersed in the x-i'negar, even for several months, without any other change than Ijecoming of a little darker color. If, on tho contrary, it is not well im- pregnated with tunnin the fibers will promptlv swell, and, after a short time, be'como converted into a gela- tinous mas.s. Arnoi o > of tho Knez Canal, it has been recently recaUed that Herodotns relates that when Nero, the king ol Egvr.t, undertook tho work of unltmg the' \waters of the Mediterranean and livd Seas bv means of a ctmal, B20,000 men perished in tho work. He then caused the work to be stopjwd and con- sultiMl an oracle, receiving the reply: \A barbarian will finish thv work.\ A friend of the famous Frenchman copied upon a sheet of paper the i>aragrai»h from Herodotus and carried it to lie Ijcsseps, who, having reed it, took his pen and appended: \The barbarian proi>hcsicd by the oracle—F.

This accidental help to hydrographers and all who stutly ocean currents and drift is pr»»b- alilv the iH-st they havo ever bad, b.- caiise the origin of tho pumice is well known, the floating expanse of it so largo that it cannot escape notice, ond tho dates and other particulars alwut it arc all matters of record.
