Yet the element of romance is here, for such observers as can look on Berwick through the eyes of the imagination and even those who can imagine nothins; must at least perceive that its aspect is regaL View- ed, as I hal often viewed it, from the great Border Bridge between England ajid Scot land, it rises ou its graceful promontory,â€" bathed in sunshine and darkly bright amid the sparkling silver of the sea,â€" a veritable Ocean Queen. To-tlay I have walked upon all its walls, treaded its principal streets, crossed its ancient bridge, explored its sub- urbs, entered its municipal hall, visited its parish church, and taken a longdrive through the country that encircles it and now at liiidnighl, sitting in THIS LOSEI-V CII.WBKIL of King's Anns, musing upon the past ami writing these words of not ungentle coin- memoratiun. I bear not simply the roll of a carriage wheel, of the foot-fall of a late traveller dying away in the distance, but the music with which warriors proclaiinetl their victories and kings ami queens kept festival and slate. This has been a pensive and sombre day, for in its course I have said farewell to many lovely and beloved scenes. Edinburgh was never more beautiful than when she faded in the golden mist of this autumnal morn- ing. On Preston battlefield the golden Ilar^'est stood in stacks, and the meoilows glinnnered green in the soft sunshine, while over them the white clouds drifted and peaceful rooks made wing, in happy indo- lence and peace. Soon the ruinetl church of Seyton came into vi w, with its siugular stunted tower and its venerable gray walls couched deep in trees, and all around it the cultivated, inany-coloted fields and the breezy, emerald pastures stretching away to the verge of the sea. A glimpseâ€" and it is gone. But one sweet picture 110 .sooner vanishes than iis place is tilled with another.

Here, nestled in the sunny valley, are the little stone coltajics, roifed with red tiles and bright with the adornment .d arbu- tus and hollyhock. All around are harvest tields and market -gardens, -the abundant dark green potato patches Wing gorgeously lit with the intermingled Instre of mil- lions of wihl flowers, white and gol.l, over whijli are many flights of doves.

At one end of Ihe nam highway is a Market Cro«, near towUdi is a little Inn. Beyond this, and nearer to the Tweed, which flows close be- side the place, is a little cbureh, of great antiqiiity, set towaid the western end of a long and ample chnrchyard, in which many graves are marked with tall, Uiick, perpen- dicular slabs, many with dark oblong tombs tumbling to ruin, and many with short stunted monoliths. The church tower is low, square, and of enormous strength. Upou the south aide of the chancel, are five windows, beautifully arched, â€" the case- ments being dog-toothed, and uncommonly complete specimens d this fine archi- tectural device and ou the outside surface of this chancel wall, in the first bay, there are not less than thirty- two cup-marks. Thischurch has been 'restored" â€"the South Aisle in 1M6. by I. Bononi-; the North Aiale in 1852, by E. Gray. The western end of the churchyard is thickly masked in great trees, and looking directly east from this point your 'gaze falls upou all that is left of tlie stately and storied Castle of Norham. It was built by a Bishop of Durham, in 1121, and restoretl by another Prince of that See in 1174. It must once have been a place of tremendous fortitude aud of great extent. Now it is wide open to the sky, and nothing of it remains but roofless walls and crumbling arches, on which the grass is growing and THE PKNDKXT BLI'KBei.I.S tremble in the breeze. Looking thi'ough the embrasures of the east wall you see the tops of large trees that are rooted in the vast trend below,, where once were the dark waters of the moat. All the courtyards are covered now with sod, and the quiet sheep nibble and the lazy cattle cDuch where once the royal banners floated, and plumed and belted knights stooil round their king. It was a day of uncommon beauty â€" golden with sunshine and fresh with a perfumed air and nothing was wanting to the perfec- tion of solitude. Nearat hand a thin stream of pale blue smoke curle^l upward from a ottage chimney. At some distance the sweet voices of playing children mingled with the chirp of small birds and the occa- sional cawing of the rook. The long grasses that grow upon the ruin moved faintly, but male no sound. A few doves were seen gliding in and out of crevices in the mould- ering turret. And over all, and calmly and coldly speakiugthe survival of Nature when the grandest works of man are dust, sound- ed the rustling ot. many branches in the heedless wind. The day was setting over Norham as f drove away â€" the red snii slowly obscured in a great bank of slate-coloretl cloudâ€" but to the last I bent iny ga/e uinm it, aud that piet nre of ruined magniticence eaLii never fad.? out of my mind. The i-»tad e.istv\ard toward Berwick is a gi'e.en lane, running between harvest fields, which now were thickly pileil with golden sheaves, while over them swept great flocks of sable. r.Kiks. There are but few trees in this landscajk- -scattered groups of the ash and the plane â€" to break the prospect. For a long time the slHtely ruin remained in view, â€" its huge bulk and serrated outline, relieved against the red and gold of sunset, taking on the |)erfect semblance of a colossal cathedral, like that of lona, with vast square tower, and ehaneel and nave: only, he.;anse of its jagged lines, it seems in this respect as if shaken by convulsion of nature, and tottering to its momentary fall. Never was illusion more perfect. Yet as this vision fi.lcl 1 could re member only the ilhisionthat v.iU never fade â€" tht; illusion that a magical poetic genius has cast over those crumbling battlemeuts, rebuilding the shattered towers, and pouring through tliose ancient halls tIn!glowing tilc of life and love, of power and pageant, of beauty, light aud song. \\: W.

Handling fleets in action and the general imbjecl of signaling are ])oinls that are just l«'ginning to receive their due consideration in ail navies. The Constructive DciKirtmeiits, in designing recent shijis which are loact iis flag-ships, have not thought out sutticiently where the Admiral shuul.l be stationed in action sf thai he may have a clear, all-rcnind view of the ships composing his fleet, as well its thoseof the enemy.

The German tiovernment's display at the forthcoming Royal Naval Exhibition is tobe a complete selection of models showing the progress of their navy from its commence- ment. Among other objects of interest will le the I^uersches Taucherboat. This was one of the first submarine or driving boats ever built, aud Wiis designed by a German officer, who, with-his companions, nairowly escaped di-owning at the trial in Kiel Har- bor. This interesting relic of early sub- niarine naval architecture, after Ij'iiig for years underwater, was fished up and is now preserved as a euriosity by the dockyanl au- thorities. The Government yard in Willielms- liaveu has among its exhibits a complete ship's cooking apparatus, hospital, otiieers' caliin, and dispensary as fitted on loard a large man-of-war. The exhibition of life- saving apparatnsfor wrecks is very complete, and takes up a large hall, where the working of the iY»cket and other systems is very clearly shown. The machinery exhibits are also very complete from a naval point of view. The new cruiser which was launche.I at Billtao by the Queen Regent of Spain rf-ceni- ly.was chris'tene.l the Infanta Maria Tcre-sa. Her displacement is 7,U(M) tons, length 'Hki feet, and breath 65 feet. .She ite\;ected to develop 5,000 horse power and to attain ;i speed of 20 knots. The armor belt is 12 inches thick, and she is to be armed with two 2-1-cenimct breech-ldul guns and ten 11- centiineter brecchdoad guns. The auxiliary armament consists of eight 6-poniiderquiek- firing guns and ten machine guns.. She h;ts also eight torpedo-discbarging tuiitis.

From a height cif 1,200 feet the aeronauts are able to Lee all that takes place for a distance of forty miles. a father's feeling, for be scolded and abused the boy whenever his humor happened t set in that way. There were seven days in the week fo Nino, and these seven were all alike except that on one of them the men worked less and ate aud smoked and drank beer and washed their clothiug. OKI Antonio ilid not drink beer because it cost money, and every cent of his wages not neceseary to buy bread he was saving up to take him home and purchase a vineyard on which to end his days in easy indolence for he could easily get a wife, and she could do all the work the vineyard required. So, on Sunday, old Antonio washed his and Nino's clothes, aud slept. If there bad been a piiest near he would have gone to mass ill ttui morning, ami washed and gath- ered sticks for cooking iust tbe same the rest of the day but perhaps that would have given him b-ss time to beat Nino on that day, whieh was the hardest the poor boy hail to pass. In his own sunny Italy Nino remembered having been page to a kim: English lady who had wintered in his native town, and she had taught him aboul a tlifl"ereiit way of spending Sunday, and of pleasing God, but his father and mother had IhiIIi died on the pa^isage over, and old Antonio had claim- eil to be his uncle and told the l»oy he would kill him if he di.l not pay so, too. Then for a while they had travclel to â-  gether from town to town with an organ and banjo, until old Antonio had done some- thing for which the officers wanted him. aud he had suddenly gone West and joined the gang of railroad builders, among whom he was known only as " Number 27." Every day there was sent down from the town on the train a sack of bread to feed the hands. Often liltle Nino was sent to wheel it up from the station. Sometimes the sack was old and rotten, and great holes g!iied in it. Then the traii.meu di.ln't liaudle it very carefully. They would laugh and joke aljout the "dago's fo«lder" as they flung it fn)in the train. Once the l»ag burst iqien, and several of the loaves rolled out .011 the platform. When Nino told ,\ntonio alMjut this a greedy look came into the ol.l fellow's eye, and he looked straight at Nino and said "Why nota keepa one 1" Nino shook his head to show that he thought such a thing would be wrong. This seemed only to make Antonio angry, and he shook his tist and said Next tiihe bring one. " Next day when Nino slarte.1 for the breail, old Antonio who ha.l just finished his dinner, brought a large blouse and put t over the boy's shoulders, an.I. buttonrng it tight at the lx»ttom, sail "Ona here; ona there," Uipping the lor^e fohls of the blouse on either si.le. The loy looked down to the ground with a deep blush of shame, but siiid not a word. "You hear*?" demamled ol.l .Antcmio, Nino looked up and making H gesture of disapproval with his hands, sluiok his head. ' Antonio was shrewd enough to see that. ,to threaten wouldnot lie |wjliey, ami so he changed his tone to a wheeillin\/ one He thrust his iiand into his [Mw-ket ami .liew out some smad coins- -the priee of a loaf of bread â€"and showing them ti Nitm, sai.l: "So much, so much, Ni.io. t.) take ol.l An- tonio and good Nino back to sMiniy Daly. so we go iuick, gooil Niii."' sai.l Ant.mio, "so Nino see friends." "You said 1 had no frien.ls," .spoke up the boy quickly; "you told nie that you were my uncle, and that all the rest were dead with father and mother, " and the lioy's brave sentence broke down almost with a sob. Old Antonio's face glowed with jiassion and wickclness, and he stamiH-.l his foot. and almost shi-ieke.l in the b.(y"s t'a.'c. as lie hurried oil" lo his work al t!u' iallofthe Ikjss: "I kill you, j-ou mo .l.i s.) 1 t.-U " The men all ale their tiu-a!:- t.ig.-tb.-r. and while .-Vntiinio kept^ siien.".tb.-re wilc an ortiin.uis look in Ins eye. .\fl.r all the men had lounged awa_\ to ^m.*!..- ..r lie.l.iwn, Antonio .-ailed Nino into a cun. r.

The mnrderous wretch paused und stared; then his hand dropped nerveless at his side. The coals from his pipe had caught in some fuse stored in thai coiner of the shantj' and the coils hiui leeu draggctl by the feel of t he boy and lay across a train of black looking substance that trailed along to the post where lay the thing over which the loy h;i.l stumbled â€" a can of giant powder used for blasting. The can hail been carelessl'y left open, or else had leeu broken by the forci* of its contact with the ground, ami spille.! its contents as it rolled along. The Italian sI^kmI and stared al the spec- tacle as a eharnwd bird at a snake. Kven the footsteps and outcries of some of bis comrades, who had been attrueii.l by the shriek of the lMy, failed to livert his gaze from the impending destruction. Some of the now arrivals took in the laii- ger at once, and threw up their hands in alarm. They called to Antonio to run f.ir his life. They cried to eacli other to stamp outtlie fuse. But nothing was done, and the hissing, flashing circle of flame burned on its fatal coiirsi; toward the powder. Theysaw" the inevitable fate of (»!d .An- tonio, but their danger was great ami true lo the brutal instincts of gre«;d and self- preservatiou-; most of them ran lutslily up stairs to secure their money ami etle.:ts. Those who were left were like Ant.niio, rooted to the s|k»1 with brute fe.ir. In an- other instant all wouM have been-blown to atoms, but an unhKikc^d for thing bapieiied. The l*oy, whose presence Inul been torgotteii and who bad leen"in a swoon, ha.l been awakened by the tumult ami the smell of burning sulphur. He looked al»out biin-.

A writer on the subject of causing death by electricity says there are reasons for be- lieving that death by this means is so swift that the application of the current could \n\ repeated a uumber of times within the in- terval that is known to elapse between the receipt of an injury and the cognizance of it by the brain. In proof of this he cites the results of a scries of experiments conducted by Prof. Muybridgc, at which he was pre-. sent. The lantern whs used to make a scries of instantaneous photographs, and in order to make the intervals In-tween the exposures, as well as the times of evposure exceedingly short, the plates wen- exjwised and stopped by means of an elect ri.- current. One very interestiug series of pictures made was intended to illustrate the sl.^w iiess of the brain in receiving impression^. Two Women were employed one sI.mmI in a bath tub and the other sat on a raiseil ehair and poured a bucket of water o\-\'r the standing woman's head and s!ioiilder.s. -In oriler lo make the shock more intense, Piof, Muybridgc had filled the buekei with iee water, unknown to the victim, » ho would not liave awaited the douche so patiently hal she known what its temperaluie was going to be. One view showe.l ihe water lipped over and falling, yet not ({uiie loueh- ing the girl's heal. The next view sii.iwed the water splashing from her hea.l an.i shoulders, anu yet there w;iis ih» signs of sen sation. In the J.liird picture she was just liegiiiningto res[Kml to the shuck, and the subsequent pictures illustrated the fu:tliei phases of the response^ The point of spe.-ial interest, however, is in connection with tin- second view. The electric current ha.l in that case first ex^Josed the jilate. and then after a very short interval had shut il otl again that is to say, had aete.l twi-e with an interval of time Ietween two the sulii cicntly hmg for the sensitive plate to take an impression of the view and this after the ice-water had touched the Woman's shoul- ders, and Iteforc she was eonscious of it. ., iiiilrawing alU'nti.»ii 'jarring of the waxe-^ dilliculty ot .snbma â- ry hopefully oi lli.- H. s already hue ot Mr. K.J.
