s hydrogen are ignited to produce a vacuum alternately on each side of a piston. In Sir James C. Anderson's (English patent, No. 11,273), two cylinders open at the ends are placed end to end. A web of gun-cotton is fed to cylinders alternately and ignited by electric spark. Johnson's British patent of 1841 proposed to introduce pure hydrogen gas and oxygen instead of atmospheric air, in order that the water, the resultant of the explosion, might render the vacuum practically perfect. Otto and Langen's gas-engine is an upright hollow column, having a heavy piston, whose rod is a rack acting upon a cog-wheel on the fly-wheel shaft; as the piston ascends, the cog-wheel slips loosely on the shaft. The mixed gases, coal-gas and air, are exploded by communication with the gas-jet, which is kept constantly burning. As the gases rapidly condense after the explosion, the atmospheric pressure, aided by the weight of the piston, is made effective upon the shaft of the wheel by the enga

I remember well when Otto promptly volunteered to guide these troops into positOtto promptly volunteered to guide these troops into position. Somehow it always affected me strongly to behold a hearty and fearless young man, after receiving an order, set forth without reluctance to execute it under such circumstances that there were few chances of ever seeing him again.

I count among the remarkable providences at Gettysburg the want of concert of action among the Confederate commanders. When Edward Johnson gave the command Forwardl it was understood that Jubal Early would move at the same time; yet it was at least an hour later before Early began his attack. He had waited for the return from the flank march of his two b

She left Washington again, Wednesday, April 5, accompanied by Sumner, the Marquis de Chambrun (who was invited at the senator's suggestion), Secretary Harlan, Secretary of the Interior, with an appointment to take effect at a later date. Mrs. and Miss Harlan, Mr. and Mrs. James Speed, and Judge Otto. At Fort Monroe, in the night or early morning, they heard by telegraph of Mr. Seward's serious injury received in a fall from his carriage. At City Point, where they arrived about noon on the 6th, they found Mr. Lincoln. This was the day when the President wrote to General Weitzel, and sent a despatch to General Grant concerning the Virginia Legislature. （Nicolay and Hay's Life of Lincoln, vol. x. pp. 222-228.)

inters. In spite of all this he was strong as an ox and tough as a mule. How he ever became a member of that famous battery was a mystery to me. Nobody knew whence he came or what was his nationality. Old Hines had only two associates—Mills and Otto, two Germans—messmates of his, who spoke very little English but a great deal of Dutch. Old Hines himself never talked at all, and never performed any duty in camp or on the field. Put him on guard and he would deliberately walk back to his mess to the knee, give a war whoop and jump with bare feet into the fire, kicking the smouldering embers in every direction, performing a pyrotechnic war dance that would have made a Comanche Indian envious; this was delightful to the boys, but not to Otto and Mills, as they had to rekindle the fire. A Sleepless man. Apparently Old Hines never slept at all, but was up all night cooking and eating—he did all the cooking and most of the eating for his mess. He was also a singer, but never sang<

Count Otto did not feel his wonted alacrity to sleep that night; he lay awaksuddenly, in the bright rays of the Christmas light, stood before Count Otto a young female of dazzling beauty. Her stature was small, like t caught him by both hands, and in the sweetest of voices said: "Dear Otto, I am come to return your visit."
