One of the most singular illustrations of the well known aphorism, ‘‘There’s many & slip between the cup and the lip,” occurred, we sre informed, in Antrim. The clergyman in the course of the service, asked if any present Kkvew of any just cause or impediment why the aspirants for matrimony before him should not be joimmed in that holy estate. The query ‘Was responded to by a young gentleman in the body of the church, who protested thai he had just reason to forbid the bans; and requested Tmission to put the question to the bride. his was accorded him, and in a manly voice he asked her if she had not, some two years since, pledged her troth to him. The fair fiancee hung ber head and answered, “Yes,” and while her intended husband, in concert with the entire assemblage, gazed in utter be- wilderment on thescene, the fickle fair one put a climax to the proceeding by adding, “and I will keep my word!” Instantly seizing her former lover by the arm, she swept with him in majesty trom the church, and, entering one of the carriages which had driven the party to the sacred edifice, drove of at locomotive speed with her recovered swain tothe residence of her mother, leaving the poor fellow in the ehurch to rumimate over the inconstancy of fickle woman.—Nor hern Whig. COFFEE AS THE FRENCH PREPARE IT.—In Paris the coffee is nectar compared with the beverage we in common call coffee. I was de- sirous to know how it was prepared, and soon Jearned. The French use three kinds of coffee, Mocha, Java and Rio. mixed inequal parts. The coffee before roasting is winnowed, to cleanse it of dust, &c., it is then culled or picked over; every black or defective kernel is Picked out, as wellas smali stones, seeds and Tat droppings, whick are abundant in most cof- fee. Itis then put in tubs of clean water and well washed, then spread todry; when dry it is ready for roasting. The coffee required is roasted daily at large establishments, while warm itis ground, and put up in glazed pa- pers of a conical shape, holding from two ounces to half a pound and sealedup. Gentle- Men, as they leave their piace of business for home and dinner, when convenient call and take the needed supply. The coffee is pat into & pot or digestor in cold water, and then set over a lamp expressly for the purpose, and there heated,not boiled but steeped; trom this di- gestor or pot 1umes arise; whrn ready you have your cap ofcoffee. Itis coffee, and a beverage delicious, health-giving, not the bitter acrid, filthy, nauseous drug we are in the habit of partaking, and calling it coflee. 7 Thousands of acres of soil are annually planted to flowers in France and Italy, for | Making perfumes alone. A sinvle grower in | Southern France sells annually 60,000 pounds rose flowers, 30,000 pounds each of jasmine and tuberesr, 40,40 pounds of violet blossoms, be- sides thousands of pounds of mint, thyme rose- | mary, &c.,and ke is bat one out of hundreds engaged in this branch of horticulture. The atmosphere of some of the towns is so filled with cre peep that a rson is made awareof his approach to them by the odors which greet him miles away. Already in America hundreds of acres of pepermint and lavender are being planted and the products exported to Europe. Though the old world bears the palm in the perfumery line, and Lon- don and Paris with the Covent Gardens and | Marcheaux Fleurs, lead New Yor in window | gardening and cultivation of flowers in pots | generally, yet New York carries on a larger trade in cut flowers than either of the cities Mentioned or any other in the world. One New York dealer has cold since last Septem- tember 50,(60 carnation blossoms, 30,000 bon- vardias, 70,(40) Chinese primroses, 30,000 tabe- Toses, besides over 10,000 roses camelias, heli- tropes, &c., and he is but one of @ large num- ber engaged in this business. WHERE Cain WenTTO.—A teacher in one ofthe Oakiand Sabbath schools, a couple of Sundays ago, put the following question to his class; “+ What became of Cain after he killed Abel!” The class got “stuck,” and like the darkey, ‘Were about to “gub it up,” when a bright little one sung out: «I know what became of Cain after he killed Abel.” « Well, little one,” said the teacher, “what did become of him!” «+ He became a vagabond, and went round the saloons a bummin @7 Harvey's theory of the circulation of the blood, or rather the cause of the circulation, is beginning to be disputed; for blushing, sudden palenees of the face, flushing and chilliness of the body frequently occur without any dis- turbance or modification of the heart’s action. The steady movement of the blood in the cap- ilaries, the circulation through the liver with- out the intervention ofany propulsive force, the fact that after death the arteries are usual- ly found empty, among other things, cannot be accounted for on the hypothesis that the heart is the sole mover of the blood. Thenew theory is that the action is a chemical one. New Vursion OF THE PsaLus.—The com- mittee appointed by the General Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church, to prepare a new version of the Book of Psalms, has offered a premium of from five to twenty thousand dollors for the version of the Book of Psalms, and contributions are solicited from the Charch generally, in aid of this fand. The ig ig is not to be paid until the new version been adopted by the Charch. OFFICIAL.
