Wants to rind the Oriole.
Prof. Charles Eliot Norton, of Harvard
College, has been visiting Rew York on an
odd taiseion. He desires the rich men of
that city to contribute 675,000 to equip an
expedition to excavate the 'site of the ancient
temple of Apollo ab Delphi. The Greek
Governmenthas given permission to the Am-
erice,n school at Athens. to undertake the
work, and all now needed are the funds
neoeseary to employ labour and organize an
expedition. The seat of the Oracle of
Delphi, according to tradition, was estate
lis' hed in the very earliest times by Apollo
himself, and at the period of the Homeric
poems a mwenificent temple already stood
• there. Afterit had been burned, 548 B.C,,
a, still more magnificent edifioe was rearee
on the same site. The temple, which con-
tained enormous wealth, was plundered
nianytimes by various conquerors during the
next nine centuries, but it continued to
flourish until its final destruction by the
Roman Theodosius in the fourth century of
the Christian era.
Rafters in China.
Kingston News: _The Chinese are abriost
dumb with astonishment to find that their

that, with their clumsy methods of locomo-
tion, required as many days a few months

ance has destroyed several old prejudices,

• A New York correspondent gives the fol.
lowing description of Zelinski, of the great
gun fame:—
, A large, well -fleshed man, big -framed and

forehead, was the most interested of the
spectators at Fort Hamilton yesterdatr after-
noon when Col. Alexander Piper, the com-
manding offioer, opened hio parapet to visit.
ors. The large man was more then a visitor,
evidently. He moved q,uiterly about with the
soft, nirable treed of a tiger, and peered into
gun -barrels, raised and loweree dynamite
eannon, and seemed to be the life of the show.
The show was to be an experimental one, the
object of the experiments being the pneu-
matic dynamite toreede gun. The big, nim-
ble man with the brown eyes and 'beard and
heavy crop of brown heir was no other than
Capt. E. L Zelinski, of the Fifth -United
States Artillery, so widely knoienby reason
of hie dynamite guns as " Lieut. Zalinski."
Capt Zalinski is e native of New York and
itas been a soldier all his life. He went into
the volunteer Service at sixteen and into the
regular army in 1864. He has been in the
artillery ever since.
Gen. Harrison's Will Power -

Harrion is an active and quick -moving,
quick -thinking man'butt by no means as
strong as he looks. The contradoed expres-
sion of the brow and about the eye, noticed
So plainly 15 1)15 picture, comes from the high
nervous tension of his mind and, at times he
is easily thrown into a feverish excitement,
that finds expression in the quickflash of his
eye, and a peculiar movement; of the band.
But to counterbalance tlds he has a quality
that will be of great value to one in his
position. His will power is remarkably
strong—more than a master for his imagina-
tion. By its exercise he can throw off -11.11
feeling of responeibilityand annoyance. and
settle himself down to perfect rest: in the

Otter Of Bose&
A correspondent of the Horticultural
Times writes: "1 took it into my head a
short time „ago that my roses might be put
to some good use. I had a tin can made.
The lid is air tight, and has in the top a
long tin tube of about an eighth of an inch
in diameter, which is so bent as to allow of
placing the end in a glass jar, at some dis-
tance from the can. The can is then filled
with fresh roses, pecked early in the morn-
ing, when the dew is on them, and the
water poured in. The can is then placed on
a stove, and the water made to boil for
about an hour, the end of the tin tube being
in a jar of water on the table near by; cold
water passing through the jar continually,
to prevent the steam fromtoverheating the
water and causing evaporation. The result
is the raising to the top of the water in the
jar the pure otter of roses, which we pur-
chase at so much cost. This is a simple con-
trivance and can be operated without ex-
pense, where there is a family of children to
pi& the roses and keep up a reaoonable fire,
too much heat not being desirable on account
of over -heating the water in the jar."

Thy Last Hour.
Oh, think of lb 1 for lt shall aunty conte,—
Thy last lone beer on earth, when thou must
part
With all thou holdest dear within thy hearb,
And death's great loneliness shall Welke thee
dunibYet, let nob dark despair thy heart en-
shroud,—
A ray of light rims every diurnal cloud;
If thou dost look for it, thy soul shall sob
Beyond the tomb a haven of repose
Prepared, in love by God for suoh as thee;
For those who triist in Jesus mercy flows!
Tans may thy setting sun on earth but be
A harbinger of better things for thee;
For, ere to -morrow's earthly sun shall rise,
Thy ransom'd soul shall mount to Paradise.
