It affm-ds me much jeaure to give yon these fewlfnea a a very sincere testimonial lor
the Piano Forlem of your manufacture. We have now used the "Patent Arion Piajsos" in
our Conservatories foravear, and have had a fair opportunity of testing their durability
during that time. The Phuxw hive been played upon almost constantly, from morning
till nilfht- anil a tin no inllsL indeed Is a vo.mI .me when it will lw.fi r s.i.u'f -in np wit .m,t

me.
Tlie peculiar sweetness of tone in the treble
nary metalagratfe arranceinenl) is so striking that I have had pupils remark, whlletak
ing their 1"miis, that td'.BOUgl: had (tut home what they supposed to 1 one of the beet
luakes of Piano, still the treble was wry wiry-tone.! eompan-d with the "Arion."
V 1 st make them still more desirable it Uieir uuiforiu volume of tone, which enabh-s
an artist to perform a composition in its trne chara.-ter.
In total, I can conscientiously endorse all that is claimed bv the Arion Plan-Forte Com
pany for their superb Instruments, as I consider them superior to any other nicke.
Congratulating yon upon the great sun-ess you have obtaiiu-d In liie manufacture of so
perfect an Instrument. I remain -Tiurs very truly.

Caught in His Own Trap.
What a glorious thing it is to have
a holiday! a little allotment of time
all your own, upon winch you need
pay duty to no man living, aud with
in the compass of which, if you be a
scholar, no one cau plague you about
the date of the Hiegra, or "exact po
litical fiignincance cr tlie Licinian
Rogations, nor any shock fall upon
you, if you be a man of business, from
alarming telegrams respecting the fall
of Utopian Consols, or the unhealthy
depression" or the Cloudland Atlan
tic Grand Central Railway. Hurely
there is no one living who does not
appreciate such a furlough, from the
fourth-form lioy who over eats him
self at Warwick orKenilworthon the
half-yearly holiday, damped only by
the horrid recollection that work be
gins again next day, up to the wearied
merchant prince who follows out his
doctor's prescription of "complete
change of scene," by making Itome
or Switzerland aa like London as pos
sible lor two mouths every year.
Somewhat after thia fashion (had I
felt inclined; I might have soliloqui
zed, as I sat looking down upon the
good town of Heidelburg from the
terrace 01 the "MolKen-Kur," a ill
tie wooden amberge, perched npon a
projecting bluff, In which a few soi-di-nant
invalids play at curing, them
selves eating the greatest possible
amount of curds and whey. And,
certainly, the scene before me deserved
more than a passing glance. Above
rose the green, sloping crest of the
Konigetuhl, wiUi all its waving woods,
upon which the fading sunshine lin
gered lovingly all around lay the
leafy hillsides, between which, like a
thread of trold, glittered the winding
stream of the Neckar; immediately
below me lay the narrow streets and
tall grim houses of Uie quaint little
town, above which the vast red tow
ers of the castle stood oat in the glow
of sunset like pillars of fire and far
out in the plain beyond, breaking with
its shining curves the monotony of
the vast ereen level. I could lust des
cry the broad, smooth flow of the pa
rent Khme.
But at this moment my reflections
are broken in aeufllcknUy unroman
tic way by concussion of a huge steeple-crowned
hat, which, driven by the
wind, ricochets off my shoulder, and
is just rolling over the brow of the
hill, when I sprang forward and clutch
ed it. Turning to look for the owner,
I find myself face to face with a qulfet,
pleasant looking old gentleman in
frilled shirt and black silk stockings,
the very image of the Glass Dwarf in
Wi'.helin HaufTs KaltesHerz ev
idently a man of some note by the re
spect with which the habitues make
way Tor Ulm.
"Many thanks, me In Herr," says
the old mun, as I restored his errand
head gear. I'm not quite so supple
now as I was when I took the prize at
the Freyberg Volksfest, forty-three
years ago, before 1 even inougni 01
becoming a Professor. It's only you
English who can keep np your train
ing lorever."
How did you guess that I was an
Englishman V" askedI, somewhat
surprised for, indeed,T with a beard
like a Pasha's and a face bronzed by
the sob of Egypt and fcyria, my ap
pearance is any thing but Angio-iaaxon.
No one but an Englishman would
have caught that hat ua you did," an
swered tlie- Professor,-with a little
chuckiing laugh. "It a just in their
nature ta jump tip ana rnn aiier any
thing that passes. Ah, if you Eng
lish would only employ your irre
pressible energies in the- cause of sci
ence, what might yow not achieve
But 110; you do not care to learn."
Do us the justice to believe, Herr
Professor, that the nation which pro
duced Bacon and Newton has still
some reverence for science."
They were mighty men," replied
the old gentleman, with a reverential
bend of .his gray head; "but I am
speaking of the nation at large, not of
a few exceptional celebrities. Ach
Himmel 1 what a set they are,- those
English!- A fine life" -they-led me
when I first began to practice medi
cine ;down yonder in Saxony. The
first thing in--the morning kliug!
kliug! at my door. 'What is it?' 'An
Englishman who has broken his leg
in trying to climb the Teufelshorn,
which no one ever ascended- yet.' I
set the Herr Engiauder'9 leg, and left
him pretty comfortable, j Not half an
hourlattT klingl kling! again, 'What
now f 'An Englishman who had
been half drowned in swimming
across the Elbe against the current for
a wager. I roll the Herr Englander
in warm blankets and bring him
round. Before I have well settled in
my chair again, kling! kling! once
more. 'MeiuGott! what's the mat
ter?' An Englishman who has tried
to run twelve miles within the hour,
because some one said he couldn't, and
has broken down under Xhe strain.
Mein Herr, I am sorry to have to say
it, but your cotmtrymen are equally
devoid of fear aud of reason. There
is but one man in England whom I
can truly reverence, and his name is
Herr Carlyle
"Sir. Carlyle, why, he's au old
friend of mine! I aaw him the last
time I was in England. I'm glad you
admire him."
"Did you, Mein Herr? did you re
ally?" says the old man, with unmis
takable interest. Tell me all about
him, I beseech you he is a great man
worthy to have been born a Ger
man!"
And for nearly twenty minutes we
sit in judgment npon the biographer
of Frederick the Great, till the strokes
of seven, booming from the town be
low, warn the Professor that it is time j
to be going home.
"You must come with me, Mein
Herr," says he, rising from his seat;
"no excuses, I beg of you. It shall
never be said that Justus Weissenhart
met with a friend of the Herr Carlyle
without making him welcome; and,
besides, I've got something to show
you which I think will interest you."
The old man's hearty manner was
not to be resisted; and a quarter of
an hour later I stood before the door
of a tall, grtm-looking stone house at
the corner of the Market Platz, the
curiously-carved front of which show
ed that it had seen more than one cen
tury. But if its outside was stern and
unpromising, its inside was comforta
ble in the highest degree; and so I
thought when I fouud myself seated
over a substantial German supper in
the Professor's little snuggery, aud
heard the old man's cheery voice bid
ding me tall to, aud spare nothing."
While eating, I fouud time to glance
round the room, which, aave for its
antique furniture and heavy cross
beams of dark oak, differed but little
from the countless other laboraories
that I had seen in various towns of
Southern Germany; but one object
arrested my attention a human
skeleton plant! upright in a corner,
presenting a pistol menacing with iu
tlesbless hand. The Professor noticed
the direction of my eyes, and smiled
significantly.
"That's the curiosity I was speaking
of," said he; "it has a history of its
own," said he; "which is worth hear
ing. When we have finished our sup
per I'll tell it to you."
Aud, accordingly as soon as our
meal was ended, Herr Weisenhart
settled himself comfortably in his
great easy chair, lighted an enormous
German pipe, which the most season-
cr fr.t In thA iini versitv would have i
found it hard to smoke out, and began

Heidelberg as the 'rich Professor Weis

warn me that if I did not take care I
mijrht some day chance to get robbed.
"Now at that time 1 had but one
servant, who had been with me many
years, and was beginuing to get old
and feeble. Every one said that he
was not enough to take care of the
house himself, and that I had better
have a younger man to help him;
but I didn't like to vex poor old Joh-
aun by seeming to think him past
work, so 1 just let tilings go on as
they were. He was a capital servant,
and did his work as well as a man
could do, but he hid one failing. Ev
ery now aud then, when the chance
offered, he would" a significant ges
ture of the Professor's hand, as if lift
ing a glxss to his lips, completed the
sentence.
"H'm!"rather bad fault in a man
upon whom the safety of a house de
pended," observed I.
"So I thought, answered the Pro
fessor, "and more than once liiouoteu
whether it micht not be as wed to
take my friends' advice after all, and
engage a second sevant. But I kept
putting it off, and putting it off, till
at last I got punished for my hesita
tion as you shall hear.
One night I had sent John out to do
some marketing, and was expecting
him back every minute. As a rule,
whenever he went out ne tooK tne
house kev (of which I had a duplicate)
along with him; so that nobody could
get in till he came, unless I chose to
let them. He was very punctual on
the whole: but this time, ten fifteen
twenty minutes passed, and there
was no sign of him. I began to fear
that he had taken a glass too much as
he sometimes did, and was just think
ing of going to look after him, when,
all at once I heard, far down below, a
noise as if the house door had been
suddenly opened and shut again, and
then a step coming up tne stairs
riirht toward mv door. I have a
quick ear of my own, and it struck
me directly that the tread was heavier
and firmer than old Johann's. I
guessed at once that there had been
foul play somewhere, anil lor a mo
ment I thought of locking my d.r
and calling for help through the win
dow but, on second thought, I decid
ed that it would be better to let the
intruder (whoever he might be) come
right up to me, and see what he really
wanted.
Hooked at the Professor with in
voluntary admiration. To hear this
little, delicate, benevolent looking
old gentleman talking so coolly of de
liberately allowing a robber (perhaps
more than one) to inarch right into
his room at night, without stirring a
step to give the alarm, simply because
he "thought it Detter to see wd ne
wanted" had a really heroic flavor
about it; and I bent eagerly forward
to hear the sequel of the adventure.
"The door opened," pursued my
friend, "and in came a tall, burly fel
low, with a black mask on his face
and a pistol in his hand. The mo
ment he was in, he locked the door
oehind him, put the key in his pocket,
and came forward to the table where
I was sitting.
"'ow, my old 'un," said he, with
a chuckle, "we've got the house all
to ourselves. Your servant is lying
fast asleep under the club room table
at the Thirsty Fox. Drugged beer 's a
fine thing to make a man sleep sound
and he won't wake much before to
morrow morning. In the meantima,
out with your money, oryou're a dead
man."
"He cocked the pistol as he spoke,
and levelled it at my forehead.
"You will think, mein Herr, that I
must have been frightened; but,
strange as it may seem, I was not.
Had 1 met this man in the street, or
out in the open country, he would
have been on his own ground, but
here, within the walls of my labor
atory, he was on mine. He came to
me in the guise of a new experiment,
and I felt -him in my power. Before
he had done ypeaking, I had tried
him in my own mind, condemned
him, and sentenced him to death."
Koft and pleasant as the old man's
voice was, there was a hard metallic
ring in it just then, and an ominous
compression of the small delicate
mouth, which showed me, for the first
time, what this quiet good humored
scholar might be capable of doing. Iu
truth, the cruelty of passion or re
venge is as nothing to that of science.

Anecdote of Old John Brown.

Early iu the .Spring of the year
which witnessed the John Brown sac
rifice, Judge Cunningham, -holding a
commission from Buchanan, rode out
to a little country seat near Atchison,
where he had heard Brown was stay
ing, for the purpose of arresting him.
Arriving at the house he rode up to
the door, dismounted with his four
o; m panics, and inquired for John
let,. 11. The lady asked the party to
it and she would call him. Presently
lj"""" "",L"

saw that I -was to be disan-
but how I could not imagine,
for he was completely alone with my
soldiers and myself, and I knew that
the country through which we should
pass was unfriendly to the abolition
ists, should he attempt to escape.
Furthermore, I knew that Brown was
ignorant of my mission up to the mo
ment when I declared it. He could
not, therefore, have been prepared for
me. But the man's self-control was
wonderful. His countenance did not
change a line from the light cardial
expression it had worn at the conclu
sion of his last sentence. He contin
ue.! the subject as if I had not spoken,
and for a moment I staggered into the
belief that my tongue had slipped and
I had not said what I had intended.
However, 1 repeated my errand and
took a step forward to formally arrest
Brown, when I felt mvse'.f detained
by a hand on my shoulder. I turned,
and au armed man, not one of my
soldiers, stood at my back. Behind
him was another, and behind him an
othera vertebneted chain of men
extending from the corner of the
house to tlie bushes. They must have
come at some signal from Brown, who
immediately said, "You see you are
all my prisoners." His tone was un
changed, but his countenance was sad
as if weighed down by a new respou
sibilty. He seemed to be perfectly un
aware of my discomfiture, and after a
moment's pause, said simply, f be
liove I must find out what to do With
you all." He retired to a corner of the
piazza, as I supposed to consult with a
confederate. But presently a whis
pered remark from one of my men
made me turn, and there the old man
was, kneeling in prayer, iu an audible
voice, but with great eagerness. I
could not help laughing. In a mo
ment Brown rose and coming up, said
the soldiers should be released, but "I
shall not ask God about you, for you
laughed." And he positively kept
me there three days, and lectured me
in the interim about reverence."
Those who share Cunningham's
feelings of meiriment at Brown's en
treaty of God, will also share his
amazement at Brown's supremacy
over self. Both belong to a region or
religious experience little trespassed
upon. Of both, as is well known
to lovers of the heroic in history.
Brown's career furnishes much more
striking instances, for he was a man
already "possessed," in the old Jew
ish sense, and nothing could bo of
significance enough to dispossess him.
His soul took fast hold on God find
to the man, John Brown, there proba
bly never has come a perilous mo
ment.'

they both reached quietly forward and
grasped the loops of their reini.. Their
well-trained teams took the signal in
an instant. The minister had the
right of the road and the Commodore

teaini drew out of the way. Down
tkey came, neck and neck, like a
storm of hail upon a dusty road,
while cheer after cheer rent the air as
they thundered past. Neither spoke
a word, bufr with set teeth and flash
ing eyes each held on the reins with
all his strength. For several minutes
no advantage was gained. At length
the Commodore made use of his whip
aud drove his animals to a slight
lead. The minister never moved a
muscle, but held on tohisanUgouist's

brow contracted, the furrows about
his mouth and eyes deepened and his
weakening arms began to tremble
Slowiv but surely the mora vigorous

Startling Phenomena in Florida—A
Large Portion of Orange County
Changed to a Lake—Trees. Houses
and People Engulphed.
The last Palatka Jf rnltl has a letter
from Oranire county, Florida, contain
ing a thrilling narrative of the sink
ing of a eood portion of Orange coun
ty, and the formation, of a lake where
it once stood. After relating the ex
perience of one man, he goes to an
other, whose account is as follows
More and more wonderful. Mr.
Alex. K. Foster has come in with
more marvelous and startling reports.
He says that on his way from Orlando
to Millonvillo, after crossing Fort
Metlin branch he left the road to
avoid the constant hogging to which
he was subjected. The safest place he
thought would be on the crown of a
high black-jack ridge, running paral
lel with the road, which he awarding
ly took. After riding perhaps a mile,
his horse commenced bogging, and
for some distance it was questionable
whether he could get through he,
however, reached more solid footing;
agaiii he commenced bogging, and at
tiiis time he noticed remarkable and
portentous sounds in his rear. The
bogging grew worse as he progressed,
until he had to dismount; there seem
ed no escape for him, both he and his
horse were still bogging.
The sounds in his rear increased
more and more, aud became more and
more alarming, and the route in front
more lggy lie dare not stop, as this
would have rendered it impossible to
extricate himself ho neither dared
nor could look behind him, his whole
thoughts and aim was to reach terra
f.rma. At last, after the most super
human exertions, both he and his
horse, exhausted to the most extreme
degree, he reached solid ground. Turn
ing to examine into the cause of those
fearful sounds in his rear, he saw the
most territi and appalling sights it
has ever been my fate to listen to.
The first thing that attracted atten
tion was, that the trees were moving,
first a gi rating motion of the top, then
some sinking gradually out of sight,
the tops revolving more and more
rapidly as it sunk and disappeared,
others following, and as they fell re
volving and describing ares of a cir
cle against the sky.
Then the whole earth as far as the
PVo could reach, sinking, and its place
supplied by a sea of water, rushing,
seething, boiling with a noiseof mighty
cataracts, and ever ami anon, casting
to the surface the roots, t oh or bodies
of mighty niue-s and oaks.
If I could only tell it to you in the
lanpruajre of the awc-tricken witness.
It niUHt have been leyond compari
son, the most fearfully, appalling, and
awerin.apiring sight ever before wit
nessed. The horse and man lie now
panting at the memory of the borrow
they have so miraculously escaped.

HOW THE PROJECT ORIGINATED.
At the ae of 2S the younij but confirmed

OWU inueiwlldetit fortune i:i the World.
.'nance guided lus footstep-; to linihanip
tou. then one of tlie itouriMun huue viiiii
yes oi interior .rw York. Inarmed with
the resemblance of tne t 'henai;o V;Ui-y to
the rich flatlands ot the Connecticut, he
sought him out a lew ferule acres two miles
uorin of the village, and transplunied there
uis old Connecticut occupation of Lohaceo
ruiMiig. On this farm he stayed 1-i years,
and besides artuni? all his reimious neigh
bors out oi their senses, lie continued to pay
for his laud, and afterwards to Mipp.irt lus
old parents under ids own roof. Al the end
of l. years he found I iin-lt in Mrtession oi
a f ij-a larincr coinforLunle iuile iortune,
heiuij worth, when the important crisis in
his life came, say to. This was about lii.
The war was then matting men restless, and
driving thtin hither aud f milter ou all sorts i
ot'mal errands, e'therol fortune or inilita-
ry glory. Tiie Hroom county tobacco pian-
ter watTinfected, and taking his family, he
started for "the wet.'' Ho went to Wiscon
sin, and then to Iowa, lie never forgot his
skeptical arguments. Wherever he went,
no clergymen or prcacner, Protestant or
Catholic, Hebrew or tireels, escaped his bat
teries. Many were the mghls trial fie sat up
till morning argmng on tiiiroloirieal matters.
On'-Uarj,sormy wiuter'sev emag al Ackiey,
HardiuCo., Iowa, he wiisMtim.; oy the uy
ing bed of :i mau uumt-d Oi;deu. Tne viilue
paMor had befii called in, and lie too was a
watcher in tne sick room. True lo his in
stmcls, Mr. Hull called out tiie aged uiviue
iu vindication of his bWief. From a meas
ured u mi s;ow conversation they advanced
lo a heated discussion, whicit prolonged lt
seli info aa argument, and continued till
neariT morning. Debating upon the verac
ity of the Old Testament history, th kept li
nt u ted his convictions that ma lirl two
chapters in Genesis, giving the history ol
the creation, were fal.se. 1 nis the venerable
eiepymen stoutly contested, expressing the
hum Implicit faith In the narrative oi tne
Creation, and lu the fact that our. nisi par
rents were more nearly perfect than tneir
descendants have pro veil to be. "There were
Eiauts in those days yon know," said tne
clergyman. W hat evidence liuve you that
t nere were giants?' demanded his antago
nist. "Why, some have been found, hir,
replied ttie'zeulous but imprudent clergy
men. Ketiring to be! about daybreak, the heat
ed brain of the skeptical ielalor reilecteil
long upon what seemed to him the bigotry
ol religious zealots. "They are ready to be
lieve anything," he argued with himself.
"No matter how iuipossinje, they takestock
iu anything thai atlords them an argument.
I verily believe tne old gentleman would be
i.eve a sack of hard salt was Lot's wile, if it
were properly shown him. Hundreds of
people would "believe in a stone imiure ofone

the stone image. Its burial and discovery,
and the fortune to le made out of showing
it in ttiouandsof tlie credulous at cents a

thus flash on the inspired brain. Nothing
was lacking of the complete Cardiff Giant
in thai tiirst conception the exact form ot
tiie image resuscilab-d from antiquity; its
peculiar posture, uniike that of statutes of
pods and men, proving if eonclusiveiy to be

ot geiiias. Then there w;u the complete
scheme of the fortune to Imj made from sell
ing out half and quafr and eighth inter
ests. In onl v one single resiect tlid the first
idea differ from the final realization. That
was in respect to size. The sons of Anr.k, to
he like themselves must su.ely be li feet
in bight and of that at at lire it was deter
mined that the fos-il nrtn should be maile
to tiie uLLermitsl cubit. Theiiilileulty ol 'find

the iiant to a bale in his final actual h-ng'h
to !0 feet !1 Inches.

From that night, uiva.-iv r-Hted the head

The secret w;is kept hwked tightiy

tentiou of the projector to bury the giant in
a W estern prairie, and afterward to em;-
graie thither. IhilUwu found, when the
statue was compieted, that funds were lack
ing for transporting it to the Went and for
procuring and titling up nn emigrant wag
oa for carrying out the scheme, it w:;s tic
c.d d, therefore, by that ill luck, that the
h.iage should be shipped to iiiiighaiiiton, x
th.t; its owner, having tlie giant at home,
could take tus own f.me ai.d wait fo, lie

The problem now was where to bury the gi

discovery of a cave in theenrth at Salisbury,

abandon his intentions ngmnst Connecticut,

for the stone man was now on his way Fast,
and must be taken away from the railroad

therefore Went the father ot gianU. lie;
found Newell, gently broached the subject
to him, and discovered that Barkis was will-

a share in the proprietorship of the forth
coming wonder. After some bargaining it
was stipulated that Newell should receive a
one-eigutn interest for his services in the af
fair, on looking over Newell's larm, Mr.
Hull discovered a spot of sunken ground
near the I tarn, which appeared to be l lie lo
cation of an abandoned well. "Now New
ell, there's our spot,'' said Auak, the father
of giant s; "you commence a well there.draw
stone for curbing, tell yonr neighbors that
you are going to open a well for your cattle
next summer, and there's our game." New
ell replied that he could play that. Well,

not tell anybady, not even your wife." "Bui

THE BURIAL AND THE RESURRECTION.
Hull now retnrned homo, nml waited .1
week lor thearrival of tiie giant at Union.
At the end of that time he sent two men
and four horses for the big box consigned to
"George Uhls." Theyloaded the box on the
wagon ami started for Cardiff, some To in lies
distant. People along the road frejuenfly
asked about the eon ten is of f he strange look
ing box. The usual reply was "lt'4ef! la
vis" an individual wuoe memory was just
then dying out Of the world. Tlie drivers
ofthU wagon were relatives of Mr. Hull,
and good, trusty fellows- It was ho ar
ranged that they should arnvu at CarditT in
the night. So, slopping at Newels house
about midnight, they un.of dVd the vast box,
covered it up in a mass of chart at the barn
door, and in minute had driven away
again, leaving the barnyard alone to dark
ness and the unsuspicious-looking mass of
chad", in this ignohin condition lay tlie
wonder ltd giant ir three or lour weeks.
At the end ol that time a derrick w.is nnish
ed and s!pped by railroad tof'arditf. 'That
night Hull and Newell removed the giant
from hi bed of straw to the "well" and bu.
ried him. Home at hist in mot her can li,

full approbation of his neirdntiS' wit bout

April, ls71. when he sold it out in Boston.
W hen a-ked how much money he had made
out of the enterprise. Mr Hull replied tha' he
did'nt care to give the precise, figures, "but
that he had made enough so that he was'nt
pinched," and. he add d that he expected a
still further addition to his lnime by tin
publication of a look containing a full his

"01 Ketfiug up the thing till ihe final day of
planting if at Cariiff was just S.'.'-ff: what i

profesur, who was engagcl In examining
John Henry beneath a niters-ope. "That
