Bryant, of , Smith Norwalk, Cennectieut, a deaf mute, met with an accident on New Year's- ...day that is likely to result in the intimate recovery of his long -lost powers ofspeechand hearing. These powers were lost near- ly hair a century ago, . when -he was a boy, and their loss is attributed to con- stant bathing in salt water. On New Year's day ahorse ran into hiM, and he • was thro .

Abuse- of Paper. Notwithstanding the fact that paper of some kind, and by some process, has been manufactured for centuries, it is not until within a comparatively few years that it has been plenty and cheap. 'About the year 500 B. C. Theodoric abolished the oppressive duty levied on papyrus by the Roman empire, and on this occasion Casstodorus congratulated " the whole world on the repeal of the impost on an article ' so essentially • necessary to the human race." Old, Pliny gave as his tetimony to the value of papal) that its general use " polishes • a-ncl immortalizes man." . Our fore- fathers held paper in high value, and respended as well as they could to the ever urgent demands of the paper mills for rags,—a then very Scarce essential I in, the manufacture of paper. • "Bags are as beauties, which concealed lie, But when in paper; how it damns the eye: Pray save your rags, LICW beauties it discover, ' For paper truly every one's a lover. By the pen and press such knowledge is dis- played, As wouldn't exist if paper was not made. Wisdom of things, mysterious, divine, • Illustriously doth on paper shine." 1 -Now -a -days we do not think and talk so much about the value of paper, be- cause we See it in profusion everywhere, and can buy all we want of it at a low price. Only by sudden deprivation of • it could we fully realize its immense by careful teaching and by practice, the utility. It is, indeed, one of the fore - proper use. of the vecal organs. Mr. Bryant is1a very intelligent man, and i evidently as much interested in watch ins the development of his hearing an of his vocal „powers as his devote physician is. • Striking it Rich. , The clay was hot at .Frisco, Utah, an the three drank beer and talked. It ap peared from their conversation the, . they had all had more or less expet- ence in .p-ospecting. One said,: a "The biggest.thinI ever struck was once When me and.

It possesses enormous funda- mental value. Of what avail would be the printing press,' and even the pen of the ready writer would lie almost use- - less in his -hands, were this argcle, so primarily useful, denied us. As the quaint old ditty aptly expresses it: "]3y the press. and pen such knowledge is displayed, As wouldn't exist if piper was not made. Wisdom of things, mysterious, divine, Illustril usly doth on paper shine." Mucl: has been said about the rapidly widen; . g forward strides in journalism, and tle cheap publication of thousands, of go; . 1. books, noticeable during the last iw years.

The matter depends on the people. - If the tendency of most of them shall ever be toward moral degeneracy and. deg- radation, then, and then only, need, a corrupt press and the abuse of paperiser greatly feared. . But the national desire and effort at present reach powerfully upward and onward, and the use, not the abuse, of paper is being, to a marked degree, en- ' conraged and upheld; so -that we may reasonably expeet that the grandest and best results will be continually realized from a press that rightly uses paper, and that the abuse of this serviceable article will be less frequent and of less moment as our civilization, during coming decades,, shall expand in high moral and intellectual progress.—Paper • The Effects of Dime Novel , • - Reading. ' - Willie Elliot was his nam. • He was ten years of age and lived in New York. He was a bright- boy, and fond of read- ing„and thanks to the carelessness, or wore, of his parents, he was able to read. all the dime novels he could find. Filled with the spirit of adventure nat- urally excited by such thrilling litera- ture, he ran away froni school one day last summer and disappeared. At -night he did not come home. Search was in- stituted and vigorously maintained; for two or three days, but no tidings were re4eived of the missing boy. . The po- lice were notified and the detectives set at work to invent theories and imagine clues, but nothing came • of it. The boY had iianished as- completely as if the earth hai opened , and swallowed him. His beijeaved parents finally gave. up the Bente and Mourned him --as. dead. • i By acciden , not long since, the mother learne I that a little boy re- sembling her had been arrested in September for larceny. Investigation showed that this was indeed. the miiis- ing child; and lsy following up, the clue the parents discovered that he had been grraigned in October for petty - larceny; that he had made no revela- tion as to his identity or that of his parents, and that upon trial he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to three in on th s' i mprisonm en t in the Protectory. There the parents found him serving out his sentence. The story he told illustrates, in a way that can hardly fail to reach the heart of the most indifferent parent, the evils of the liter two referred to. When he ran away fr m school he met some youngsters who ersuaded him to, spend the night with them in a barn. The novelty of the situation attracted him, and the subsemient proceedings were so: much like what he had read about, that he readily consented to all that his new found frieuds asked of him. They were all older than he, and bad forined them- selves into a baud, with oaths and pass- words, and g4s and other parapher- nalia of mystery and secrecy. • Into this band they soleihnly initiated the little ten -year-old lad, who was then told that the object of the organization was plunder. Being knew member, he was given exceptional opportunities of distinguishing i himself; and it was while engaged. in stealing for the society that he was caught, with the result already narrated: Young as he was, and tenderly as he had been nurtured, he refused to betray his companions, or to discloseithe name of his parents, lest by that mans the "gang" should be in- jured. With a pluck -worthy of an older _. heart and a better cause, he chose rather to go to prise]] than—as he himself put it tp "squeal." The story Might almost be accepted as one of the dime novel yarns, the in- iquity of 'which it so strildugly shows, were it not for having the hero in prison.
