When "Lea Manteaux Noir" was

some years since, a "bowling swell"
walked up to the door and accosted
the burly business manager thus:

tickets. , There twelve of us with me.
Count 'em as they go in." -
"'La you go, gents," said the door
keeper, and he tallied off eleven who
immediately mixed 'with -the crowd

- Bricks That Will Float. :
San Francisco Call,
''Floating palaces" a often spok
en of, , but mostly by a figure . of
speeoh" to describe certain splendid;
steamships. ! . But it seems that mod
ern improvement has made it possi
ble to build a brick house ton the
sea (?). Floating bricks are now sue
cessfully produced in France, . tbe
material of which they are composed
being a kind of earth found in Tusca
ny, consisting of fifty-five parts of
sandy earth,,., fifteen of magnesia,
fourteen ot watery twelve ; alumina,
three lime, one iron. It exhales a
clay-like odor, and, when -sprinkled
with water, throws out a light, whit
ish smoke. It is infusible in the fire,
and though it loses about' an eighth
part of its weight, its bulk is scarce
ly diminished. Bricks composed ? of
this substance, either baked or im
baked. float in the water .and a twen
tieth part of clay may ; be added to
their composition without " taking
away their property of swimming.
These bricks resist - water, unite per
fectly with lime, are subject to ; no
alteration from the beat or old, and
the baked differ from the unbaked
only in the sonorous T quality ; which
they acquire from the fire. Their
strength is a little inferior to that of
common bricks, but muoh greater in
proportion to their weight, V Thus a
floating brick, measuring seven inch
