A young gentleman of Concord 1‘8- ocntly recently received the present of u birch bark canoe, and the followinn evening he launched the frail craft, and invited u few friends to witness the trial trip. After carefully parting his hair in the middle, and dividing his small chunge equally between his right and left vest pockets, in order to pre- serve an exact equilibrium, he stepped on board. The vessel “ walked the waters like a thing of life,” but the young man, just at that time, saw something on the bottom of the river that he wanted, and went down after it with a terrific splash, whercut his friends on the bunk, stupidly supposing he had accidentally tipped over, induln‘cd iu unseemly mirth. The navigator, over, swuin ashore, and administering u. cutting rebuke to his friends, started again. The next time he tried it, he acknowledged that the frisky little bout did tip over, but felt confident that there would be no trouble after he had got the hang of the thing. Finally he made a. fourth and last attempt, the boat turned over as usual, and he came up undcr it. His friends seeing that he did hot put in an appearance, plunged in after him, suukcd him out, and then, under the impression that he needed rc- suscitating, stood him on his head, rolled him on a barrel, burned feathers under his nose, pounded his back, lunccd his arms with a pcnknifc, and otherwise maltreated him. As soon as he could get out of their clutches be seized an our, “ went for” the amateur doctors with so much energy that they vacated suddenly, and left him musterof the situation. He is now anxious to lind some pretty toy manufactured of nitro- glycerine to send to his friend in return for the cunoc.~-â€"Boston Globe. Ma The Art of Hanging. As long as capital punishment thcluw of the land and hanging the mode of accomplishing it, there is satisfaction in the thought that men are to be found who, regarding it as. a scientific process, or an art, if you will, are ready with advice to make it perfect. An English clergyman, fellow of the lloyul Society, has been publishing a work on the “Principles of Animal Mechanics,” in which he does not disdain to devote a portion of the space to this subject. He says that the method in use is unworthy of the present state of science, and the long drop, which causes instan» tuneous death by the fi ucture of the vertebral), is recommended, the length oftho drop to be obtained by the following rule: Divide 2,240 by the weight of the “patient” in pounds, and the quotient will be the required length in feet. This rule is simply obtained by supposing (us was found to be actually the case in one in- shock is sufficient to cause fracture. in any case, no allowance being: nmdc for difference of age, weight or sex; thus by this rule, the lighter the criminal or “patient,” the longer must be his drop, and the longer the time of his agony in the on: ~~â€"â€"«â€"~ b o 0 . 4.â€"â€"â€"~-Mâ€"~ The Paris Diamond Market. A curious account is given by the 0rdre, 0f the place where the dealers in precious stones assemble in Paris toatransact business, namely, at the Cafe dos Vurictcs, Boulevard Mon t- murtre. Theibllowlng is an abstract from the last part ol'the article : “As soon as the various chupmen have as- scmblcd and have taken out: their stores, ‘Hcrc,’ cries one, ‘is a real burâ€" gain, one of the finest ancient pieces ofjcwcllcry known. It isu necklace which belonged to the Princess Gee: memence, the setting and diamonds being all old. refused 75,000 francs for it twenty years ago.’ The article passes from hqu to hand, and each person enumâ€" lines it attentively with his magnify- ing glass. Some countenanccs ex- press doubt and indecision, and the necklace at last reaches Michael, who is the great authority. IIe weighs it in his hand and inspects it with an air ol'indifl‘crcnce and then says :a‘Thc two stones at each end are ancient, and both with their setting belonged to the Countess Dc Prejeun ; two oth- ers, which are still finer, formed part ofa collection stolen at Venice in Ilcv.

However extraordinary the above may appear, there are in the world live or six individuals who know all the diamonds of ‘uluc and all the ar- ticles of jewellery of importance that exist, and who can recognise them thirtyycars later if they have only seen them one minute.” >~ow< How to Become a Man. Distinguished In it great many instances young;r men what thcv are competent to perform. A correspondent writes thus : As :1 general rule, the best :lucc for a young man to begin life is right where he is. He need not go a hundred, or three hundred, or a thousand miles away from home to try the world ,' that particular spot where he lives is a part of the world, and just as good in. place to try as some other purâ€" ticulur spot three hundred miles off. In the Eastern States, where society is settled, and things change but little, where business is held in fixed chan- nels, and certain families are supposed to have a prescrij‘mive right to do every- thing that is done, there is not nun inducement for u young man to remain at home, unless he possesses the genius and enterprise to brcuk through the traâ€" ditions and regulations that hamper him, but no such condition of things ex- ists out \Vcst, here everything is new, fresh and plastic ; and :1 young iiiun:1nuy do his part in moulding things to his: purposes. It is u very common this take for youngsters, who have not yet buttcd their tender heads against the hard angles of the world, to imagine the possess superior talent, if they only lizul an opportunity to exhibit it. If they live on a form. there is no chungfl there to show their genius. If they live in u country town, it is entirely too small to spneud their wings in. They yearn for a. great city where talents are appreciated, and imagine that there is the field for them to risc to eminence and wealth, and yet they had better stay right where they are, und make their beginning in the locality where they were raised. If they really possess genius or spociztl aptituch they nfuy first develop them and test the metal they are made of in the limited sphere of their native place, and, if the cxpcrimm-l proves sutisfactory, afterwards transfer sands of young men who go to grout cities to try the world, find the world in such cities too much for them, and they learn too late that it would have been better for them to make theLr trial in .. humblcr and safer sphere-mil'cw York [lo/"aid. a Air» «M 47 Use of Tobecco. On this subject we give the follow- insr rcmurks from tho “I’opulur Sci- ence Monthly.” \Vc recommend them to the consideration of smokers : “Tobacco belongs to the class of narcotic and excitingr substances, and has no food ‘uluc. Stimulation means abstracted, not added i'orce. It in- volves the narcotic paralysis ofu porâ€" tion of the functions. the activity of which is essential to he: lthy life. “ It will be that tobac :o soothes and cheers the. weary toilcr, and soluces l‘zc oi crimrkcd brufn. Such muy be its momentary effects, but the sequel cunnot be ignored. All such cxpcdicnts are l ihllucious. \Vhen a certain amountofbrainâ€"work or hand-work has been poi-ibrmcd, nature must have space to recuperate, and all devices for escaping from this necessity will full. It is bad policy to set the house on fire to warm our hands by the blaze. Let it, then, be clearly understood that the tempor- ury excitement produced by tobacco is gained by the destruction of vital force, and that it contains absolutely nothing which can be of use to the tissues of the body. “ Tobacco adds no potcutul strength to the human frame. It may spur a weary frame or feeble arm to undue exertion for it short time, but Its work is destructive, not constructive. lt cannot add one molecule to the plusm out of which our bodies 'uro daily built. up. On the contrary, it exerts upon it :1 most deleterious inâ€" fluence. It does not supply, but di- minishes, vital force.

Ilo rose, uent cautiously to th‘ window, and saw a woman filling her apron with wood, which she hustin curried mvuy. Ilc resumed his seat and re Commonccdhis study. Shortly u‘il tor the sumo noise occurred, und on looking out the second time he saw :1 similar ope ‘ution, the woman filling her apron to its utmost czpacity. When she had gone he returned to his book with u. tender pity in his heart to ' u dostitution which sought rclici'inthis lonely, dreary, not to soy sinful manner.

Their value is byno means appre- eluted, but the rapidity with which people are waking up to their necesâ€" sity and usefulness is one of the sigâ€" nificant signs of the times. Few families are new content with one newspaper. The thirst for know- ledge is not easily satisfied, and books, though useful, yea, absolutely neces- sary in their place, fail to meet the demand of youth or ago. Our coun- try newspaper is eagerly sought and its contents as eagerly devoured; then comes the demand for the city news, national and foreign news. Next to the political come the literâ€" arp and scientific journals. Lastly, and above all, come the moral and religious journals. All these are do- mandcd to satisfy the cravings of the active mind. Newspapers are also valuable to material prosperity. They advertise the village, county or locality. They spread before the reader a may on which may do traced char- acter, design and progress. 1fa stronger lulls at a hotel he first on- quires for thevillugc newspaper, i u friend comes from a distance the very next thing ul'tcr family greet- ings, he enquires for your Village or country paper, and you feel discom- forted il'you are unable to find a. late copy, and confounded ifyou are com- pelled to say you do not take it.
