When the Muses cameand song appeared they were ravished with de- light, and, singing al ways,never thought ofeating and drinking, until at last, in their forgetfulness they died. And now they live again in the grasshoppers, and this is the return whieh the Muses make to them—they hunger no more, neither thirst any more, but are always sing- ing from the moment that they are born, and never eating or drinking, and when they die they go and in- form the Muses in Heaven who honor them on earth. —The losing ofa occasionally ¢ at man’s remains 1 ripple of excite- ment over in | A couple of years agoa great search was made for the bones of Mozart More lately the heart of Gambetta has been misplaced in a most unaccountable manner, and now the bones of M are mssing.

Busts ef Jefferson and Van Buren occupy niches next the press gallery, and busts of Hannibal, Hamlin and Thomas A. Hendricks have just been placed in the niches near the diplomatic gallery.

THE LATTER DAYS. The Time of Life When Naught But Peace Should Reign. The Psalmist’s dictum that the days of man are threescore years and ten will need to be modified in this day and generation. Across the Atlantic Von Moltke, Gladstone and Tennyson are moving. thinking. writing and speaking as they did thirty years ago: while the color and brightness of intellectual manhood have not yet left our own Holmes anid Whittier, and even Bane croft, the nonogenarian, still retains some of his mental foliage. Men have been too apt to look upon old age as something to be dreaded—as a time when they are likely to be treated as trespassers upon the domain belonging to another generation. Thackeray in addressing the “pretty page with a dimpled chin” warns h “This is the way that boys begin: wait till you come to forty year.” The half-century of life seems far dis- tant to men in the vigor of youth and early manhood:yet the line, “superfluous lags the veteran on the stage,’’ 1s so mercilessly dinned into their ears that they tremble at the thought of yielding to the inevitable.

Another s muar hole, 4 fath- oms of water it, had been sounded by the Chaclenger about 150 mi.es west of the Ladrone Is ands. between them and the Ph l.ppin ich depths as these have rovered im the Atlant nof the equator. If it be safe to theorize on so siender an accumulation of facts as these, it may be said that the deepest waters of the globe are to be found in the Pacific. There are a few holes of moderate depth in the Atlantic, and a mar ner’s tale ascribes considerable depths — which have not been ver fied—to parts of the Indian Ocean: but the greatest cavities in the earth's surface wh ch have been measured underlie the vastest body of water exist ng on ihe globe. It may also be observed that there appears to exist a proportion between the average height of the mounta:ns on the sbores of the cont nents which bound it. The average depth of the Pacific, leaving ridges and depressions out of view, is not far from 2.000 fathoms; the average height of the peaks of the Rocky mounta ns and the Andes wili not vary far from 10,030 feet, or 1760 fathoms. The depth of the deep spots in the bed of the Kuros:wo current occasionally reaches 27,000 feet; the he gnt of Mount Aconcagua in Ch li is 299 fee.
