GOOD NIGHT"I'M TIRED.

My little girl, at grandmamaTs
One Summer, to thie dusty town
Was wont to send, each night afresh,
A childish letter posting down.
"Twas brimming full of brooks and
T fields, s
And all the joy the amity yields,
But soon the writerTs lids would fall,
And then would come a straggling
scrawl,
oGoodnight"ITm tired.�
Dear little one !"so thoughtful she
Toshare her pleasures pure and sweet,
To make each day, so glad to her,
In wider blessing more complete.
What though the weary pen would lay,
And sleepy thoughts at snailTs pace
drag ?
Until she could no longer write,
She spared the crooked words, oGood-
night,
Goodnight "ITm tired.�
To higher use called,
And when the
Sweet Heart !
She passed from us.
sun
Was setting of her little day,
And heavenTs dawning had begun,
In restful peace she turned her eyes
To the blue fleece-besprinkled skies,
And whispered, as she passed away,
oIt has been such a happy day !
Goodnight"ITm tired.�

.son;,in a recent Cantor lecture be-.
fore the Society of .Arts.in London,
tells us that it has actually melted
there, sometigng that was until re-
| cently thought : ble. * More-
over; he says that when: the light
hisses, the liquid ;carbon is really
| boiling... The faots that lead him to,
these conclusions are quoted� below:
from the report of his lecture that
~appears in Industries and Iron:
oCaptain Abney had: found: the
_ | ~white surface of the luminouscrater
to be always of an. equal degree of
H whiteness, which , obviously means
that it is always of an equal degrea
of temperature. The only thing that
temperature ~for the crater surface
was the fact, that carbon is. at the
surface ina state of volatilization;
that the carbon is evaporating off
from. ~the positive carbon into theT
atc Or'flame. ~At that surface you
necessarily must have the tempera-
ture at, which carbon evaporates,
just as you cannot have the surface
of ioe under ordinary. conditions
either hotter or colder than the tem-
~perature whieh is takenT.as zero of
the Centigrade. deale.. |My ~present. |,
view of the physical state of the aro
crater is that the solid catbon below
is. covered with a layer or film of
liquid carbon, just Bolling or eraty
orating off.T
. oWhen hissing takes nisin: a new
watch a short, hissing aro, you will
see a column of light. concentrating
itself on a narrow spot, and the spotT
keeps moving about and is very tn-
stableT in positionT as well as in the
~amount of ::light:it' gives out,
~contracted spot from. which light
seems to start pits deeper into the
carbon. Mrs. Ayrton made the ob-
~after the are has ~been: hissing, is:
When the'aro is hissing, you can seo
| little bits erupted out, and the hiss-
ling seemsT to be comparable to the
hissing which ~takes place in water
| just when it is beginning to boil. ' If
you have some water being heated
in such a way that there is not more
en off from the surface, you have
the water evaporating quietly, but
you éannot get more than a certain
quantityof heat given off per|
square inch of top surface of the
water in that quiet way.
If you force more than 4 cer-
per top square inch of the water,
you find the waterT begins to break
up internally, and you have bubbles
formed below the surface; the sur-
face breaks up, the bubbles are
thrown out, and you have a noisy
phenomenon. I think you will find
there is exactly the same kind of
difference between the silent arc and
the hissing aro as between quiet
evaporation and noisy boiling.
There is a sort of decrepitation, as
the solid particles are being torn
asunder to make way for something
none out, when the aro is hiss-
