U in The Churchman. Saxon Edgar's Arrogant Triumph. The old city of Chester, in England, has its traditions and legends of thu past. As in all such old-time places, some of these stories are founded on faci, exag gerated and heightened by the popular and local vanity, and in some cases the whole is a sheer fabrication. Chester was, a famous place in tho days of the Heptarchy, after having been lost and taken in the final struggle with the Ihitons. Here Ethel wolt held a parlia ment, and received the homage of the trib utary kings, from Itcrwicic unto Kent. Alfred wnsted it from the Danes, but left it in ruins. King Edward, hrave and active, made it the great naval station of England's iover oa the sea. It is stated iu the annals of the time, that Edgar sailed with a great licet to Chester on the Deo, and that eight kings, or sul-kings, as they are called Ken neth. King of Scotland, Malcolm of Cum bria, Macchus of Anglesey and the Isles, the three Kings of Wales and two others, repaired thither at his command to do him homage. But "his puetile vanity,' says Mr. Sharon Turner, "demanded a more painful sacrifice. He asccmled a large vessel, with his nobles and officers, and he stationed himself at the helm, while eight kings, who had come to do liiin honor, were compelled to take the seats of the watermen, and row him down the Dee; a most arrogant insult to the feelings of those whose titular dignity was eipial to his own. Edgar crowned the scene, and consummated his disgrace, by declaring to his com tiers that his succes sors might call themselves Kings f Eng land, when they could compel so many kings to give them such honor." A New Material for Taper. The consumption of esparto grass by pr.er makers in France and England is now very large, ami it is yearly increas ing, says the London Times. The great value of this grass as a paper making ma terial lies in tho tenacity of its liber, and :he comparatively minute quantity of sil ica in its composition. In these respects it would appear that we have in all wet, healthy places, moors, and damp woods throughout Great lhitaiu aud Ireland, and extending over all Europe and into Itussian Asia, wherever suitable places for its grow th ate to be found, a similar material in the grxss long known as the purple molinia (Moliaia cairulett). It is a rather coarse, stitf. perennial grass, often growing to a height of 3 feet; the leaves chiefly form tufts ami start from the base of the plant; the flowering stalk is of a greenish or purple hue. it is found over all the moorlands of Scotland and in all the lxggy pastures of Ireland, and has lx?en considered of little, if any, agricult ural value; it is gradually, by cultivation, lcing destroyed. From an analysis of hay made from this grass by Dr. Camer on, it would appear to contain an unprec edented ly small amount of ash only O.So part out of 100 parts of hay (dry weight) ami a scarcely appreciable amount of silica. In 100 parts of the ash only 0.5-1 of silica was found. Dr. Cam eron does not suggest this grass as being of value as a pajx r making material, but he calls the attention of farmers to the fact that it is weli worth saving as a food product, as its composition indicates a nigh degree of nutritive value; indeed, it appears to be quite as rich as meadow hay in all its common ingredients except digestible non-nitrogenous matters. Of the depth of sowing wheat, Peffer, of Wisconsin, says: "The sooner the ker nel sprouts and gets alwve the ground the letter and stronger tlie plant, and the thicker it will stand. To illustrate: In jny younger days I made cxjieriments with the depth of planting wheat; I planted the whole kernels of a whole bead iu this manner; in one of our gar den beds (ground spaded twelve inches deep) first, kernel on the surface; second, one-quarter iuch deep; third, one-half inch deep; and so on, a quarter of an inch deeper each time, until tho kernels were planted. Result: Tlie one on the surface lay nearly two weeks before it sprouted and made roots; the second, one-fourth inch deep, and up to three-fourths, came up the fourth and fifth days, wiiiie the next were later; the last one up was fourteen 'lays in reacliing the surface, and was three and one-haif inches deep; none came up after that time; on examining I found that the three next kernels were sprouted, but rotted Ix-fore they got to the surface; tho kernels planted Ironi five to seven inches deep rotted without a sign of hprouting. At the end of six weeks the plauts stood thus: The first had three straws quite strong; the one-quarter twenty-one straws; tlie half-inch 17 straws, and so on; the three and one-half inch, a very weak single straw. It never got strong, although it grew a small or short head; the few kernels it contained were '. plump and good; the one inch had eleven straws at six weeks, but cnlj perfected twenty-one good heads; the one on the surface made three good heads, tlie same as the one planted two inches deep." Tlie inference from the experiment is plain, to wit: that shallow planting it preferable to deep planting. The Enemies of the Ocean Cable Though reiHXiing iu apparent safety on the bottom of the swa, ocean cables have a hard btriig'.e for existence gainst their many em-urea, and never survive fifteen years. One oi'tlicir dearest toss is the worm known as the t.-rcdo, which litis a marvel ously effective bcring apparatus and un numbered minute: cutting surfaces 'which enable it to bore its way into anything that promises food. The gutta pirtha on the cable lit-.s been a deiic icy of which it was particularly fond. Man has leen at work to endeavor to circumvent this tittle animal. The hemp sheathing of the cable has l.cn soaked iu cantor oil or oil of tho nndoroca nut, which repels the borers. The u.e cf glass or slag wool has be.'ii patented as a substitute for the hemp sheathing, as has ais a ribbon of iibrous maUiiai coated with a mixture of resin, resiu oil, or marine glue to wrap around the core. One cable company is using an envelojK" of brass tape as a prevention against the lioreis of the sea. Icebergs grabng on the bottom of the sea have cut cables. IShij V anchors foul and damage them. In the Persian gulf a whale was snared to death in a cable. Fish ami tur tles and lightning have all damaged cables more or less, and the need of watching and repair is iuccs.-aut. A Curious Musical Jnsn unient The Hindoo Throat Flute. Tlie Hindoos have a number of musical instruments, some of which claim a high nntiipjity ; but there is one which is ex tremely curious, not so much from it form or structure ns from the fact that it is played neither with the month nor air bag, nor with strings nor by striking. It consists of two small silver trumpets.with a verv delicate apparatus within. There are no holes as in a llutc. When the Prince of wales was in India, the Uaboo Kaliy Prosonno ILmnerjee played on these instruments before him, and excited the greatest interest" com pletely puzzling all to conceive how ho really produced the sounds; for he did not place the m-mili of the trumpet to his lips, but to his neck. Some thought him a ventriloquist, and that the trumpets were merely used to create a false impres sion. It proved, however, that the delicate apparatus was so sensitive that the varia tions of sound were produced by the vari ation in the quantity of air propelled through by the pulsations of the neck, be ing greater or l'.'ss according to th pres sure on the mouthpiece. Nothing could be more curious than to see th- pcrfoimcr and hear the soft, sv. ct musical sounds that Usued from the silver trumpets. ?arcliiu? For Papa. A lady iu the street, says the Cleveland Herald, met a little girl between 2 aud o years old, evidently lost, and crying bit terly. Tlie lady look the baby's hamt and asked where she was going. "Dow n to find my papa,'' was the sob bing reply. "A'hat is your papa's name?" asked the lady. "His name is papa." "iiut wnat is ids other name? What does vour mamma call himf "one calls him papa,'' persisted the lit tle creature. The lady then tried to k-ad her along, Baying, "iou had bitter come with me. 1 guess joit came this way'"' "Yes, but 1 don't waat to go back. I want to liud my papa," replied the little girl, crying afresh as if her heart would break. "What do you want of your papa?" askt.il the lady. "1 want to kiss him." Just at this time a sister of the child, who had been searching for her, came along aad took mjsscssiou of the little runaway. From inquiry it appeared thai the little one's papa, whom she was st earnestly seeking, hud recently died, aud she, tired of waiting for him to come home had gone out to liud him." To Bender Wood Incombustible and Impermeable. According to the Timber Trade Jour nal, M. M. P. Folbacci claims to give these properties to wood by the process described below. It thus becomes petri fied, so to speak, without, however, un dergoing any change of appearance. On being subjected to intense heat it becomes charred on the surface, but very siowly and without any flame, and it is only nec essary to scratch the surface to rind the sub stance of the wood intact. Hence in case of fire, the firemen would have no occa sion to fear that the materials on which they tread would give way beneath them, if this operation has been undergone by the wood composing staircases, floors, Ac. The following chemical compound is said to produce the result: Sulphate of zinc, 5.1 pounds; American potash, 22 pounds: Am'.-rican alumn, 41 pounds, oxide of manganese, 22 pounds; sulphuric acid of (JO , 22 lbs.; water, 55 pounds; all of the solids arc to be poured into an iron boiler containing the water at a temperature of 45 3 C, or 113 F. As soon as the sub stances are dissolved the sulphuric acid to be poured in little, by little, until all the substances are completely saturated. For the preparation of the wood it should be placed in a suitable apparatus, ataal ar ranged in various sizes (according to the purjMJses for which it is intended j on iron gratings, care being taken that there is a 6pace of about half an inch between ev ery two pieces i f wood. The chemical compound is then pumjed into the appa ratus, and as soon as the vacant spaces are tilled up it is boiied for three hours. The wood is then taken out and laid on a wooden gr ating in the open air, to be ren dered solid, after which it is fit for Uses of all kinds, as ship building, house build ing, railway carriages and trucks, fence posts, wood-paving, in short, for any kiud of work where there is any liability to de struction by lire. fan 'if' UPPER JAW BIT, CAltLKTOX S PATEST.
