In order to insnre euceess two noints must be at. tended to—first and most important, the glass rust ne kept gaits iu the water while the scissors are applied ; and, seoondly, to avoid rink begin the cuttiug by taking off little pieces at the corners and along, the edgee, anfl SO re- duce the shape gradaally to thee re- quire+ and if any attempt is made to out ta( glass all at once to the shape as we would oat oerd board it will mast likely break just where it is not wanted. Sone kinds of giros out notch better than others, the softer being the best for this purpoep- The sciseors need not be at all sharp, as their ectien does not appear to depend on the edge nre- senetcl to the glnse. When the opera- tion goes on well, the glass brooks away from the scissors in small pieces in a straight line with the blades. Thie method of cutting glass has often been of service when a diamon& hes not been at hand, fOr cutting ovals and segments, and though the edges are not so smooth as may bo desired for some pnrposee, yet it will ens" in a great many cases.

During a recent Mohammedan festi- val at Kentlaher, a capital of Southern Afghanistan, a number of mounted Chazie, as they are named, ran am rick through the British camp. Gen. Tyler and several British soldiers were wonnded, and four of he Chazis were kilted. Ilanning amuck is ono of the terrors of the East, but is far less corn- s:nen than it formerly was. Originally a Malay custom, it has extended to other countries in which the Moliam- medal) /reed is prevalent. The word amuck is a corrnption of atunalt, Jav- anese, to kill and the thing is simply- a miscellaneous, indisoritninate The natives of these Eastern lands be- come, from long continued, excessive use of opium, ferociously frantio, and theirefrenzy is often intensified;,by re- ligious fanaticism. Then, absoluto?j mad, they rush into the streets --fre- quently murder—cursing, biting, and ebbing, with knives which they always carry, whomsoever they encounter. They are dreadful to see, and still more to meet. They look like aniruat- ed, very animated corpses, their featur- es being pinched and sharpened, their skin drawn like perahinent, their eyes glittering with fierce iusanity, and their P nerve bent on slaughter. AP many as forty persons have been killed by them before they cnuld be over• come. Their appearance is the signal for general alarm. Everybody seizes the first weapon he can reach, and sal- lies forth to hunt down and extermin- ate them. They must be killed forget'. eral safety, and they are killed as soon as passible. Long spears used to he employed alltogether . as weapons against thene—and they are still em- ployed—being thrown at or thrust in- to them until they expire. Fire -arms le are nowVtbe offensive weapons when these 'ate safe, lent, in the narrow, crowded P tree ks of the East, this is not often the ease. Nothing is so formid- able as an amuok.runner, and it is not strange that he is mercilessly slain, The Malays, owing to their ferocity, treachery and daring; are the most dreadful of all, especially when armed with the dagger or crease, their native weapon. with which they have a dead- ly skill, and whish makes a terrible tied very dangerous wound. A Europeat: or American who has seen an amuck is very apt to remember it. HISTOB/CAL ITEMS. France abolished the slave tradet so berets in her power, in 1815. Windmills were first known in Spain.
