A NEW element in inoombustibilit in h
construction of a building is found in the
use of cork bricks. This new material was
exhibited at the Nuremberg Exposition,'
where it attracted much attention. These.
bricks have not only been largely used for
building purposes on account' of their light-,
nese and isolating properties, but they are
also employed as a covering for steam boil-
•
ers, and are said to exoel even asbestos in
preventing the radiation' of heat. They,
are represented as being very cheap, being
prepared by the use ofsmall corks, refuse
and isolating Dement. The usual size of„•the
brick is 10x 4.34 x2.12 inches.

said : -

very good and true experience. 1"I should join issue at ones with those
who believe that intellectualwork cannot
be so well done without wine or .'alcohol.
1 should ;deny that proposition and hold
the very opposite. " It is one of the very
commonest things in English society, that
people are-injuredby drink without being

A. curious discussion about the desoeu

Beethoven was the descendant `of a poor

in a small ' Belgian . village. His talent
for muslo he inherited" from his grand,
father, a sturdy Anvereoia, who for many
years had an appointment as chanter at
the Collegiate Church of Louvain, and
afterwards at Bonn "obtained a patent as
court wueiotan. The second story, whioh
for a Tong time held its place in a German

natural eon of Frederick William II., King
of Pr.'.assia... On being asked about this mat.
ter, Bootheyen declared that on prinoiple
he never answered any question about hitt.

(London Chronicle.)
Yesterday afternoon an extraordinary
scone was enacted in the Caledonian road
and its neighborhood, in connection with
the,funeral of an aged woman, named Mary
Robinson, who was well known not only in
Islington and Bt. Pancras, by the title et
the " Queen of the Costermongers," but
throughout the metropolis. Mary Robic.
eon, who had _resided at 137 Bewert n
street, Caledonian road, at one timeneed
to have a stall in Elmore Town, and of late
years had: been a vendor of oats' -meat. It
is stated that ebe amasseda great fortune,
being wortn no lees than £60,000. It was
her ouatom to lend to oostermongere money
on. Fridays and Saturdays to go to .market
with, they paying her for the loan
a shilling in the pound. The
deceased was a most eooentrie diameter.
She paid some 20 years ago to Mr. Frank
Sharman, of Caledonian road, £20for her
funeral expenses, Qwing to the. rumor
that the deceased 'in her will, hed•_quieted

feathers in them, and white aprons ; _that
there was to be £20 spongin drink at oer-
tain publio.houses she named, by the cos-

street, along the Caledonian road, and the
route the prooession_was to take to Finoh-

conoourse of people that it blocked -the

was reported that' the 'corpse Was dressed
in white satin, and that' round the head
was a handsome wreath. A' funeral car
contained the coffin; which was completely.
_covered -with expensive wreathe and crosses.
There were, besides the relatives: and near
friends of the deceased, who followed in
the mourning oarriages, a great number of
pony.oarts, donkey -barrows, and cabs, all
being overfilled with costermongers, whilst
hundreds followed on foot to the Finchley
-Cemetery, where the' deceased was buried
in her family grave. The soene, which was
a strange one, caused a great deal of excite--.
