Il wns duriug bis lifiliiue thnt the story of St,   Cecilia  recuived u contmnailon, of whicii ho himself has leftiis a full accounl, III the year 159'J, Paolo Eiiiilio Sfondruli, Ihirdinal  of thn   Title  ol St. ('ecilia, un¬ dertook   a thorough restoration cf the old basilica   erected by Paschal.    He possess¬ ed   a large collection of relics, and deter¬ mined  that he would place the most pre¬ cious of llieu) under the high altar.    For this purpose   the vault containing the sar¬ cophagi in which St, ("ecilia and her coin- way.'—.S'o»« ; paniona  lay   must   be  opened, and 011 the iJOlli of Ociober the work was undertaken, I Up'in breaking through tho  wall, Uvo snr- j cojihagi of white marble were  discovered. I 'Pile Cardinal was on the spol, and, iu the lireseuce of numerous  dignitaries  ol the I church, whom he had senl for as wiluess- j es, he caused the heavy  top of the first ol these stone coffin 10 be lifted,     Witbin was seen lhe chesl  of cypress wood in which, I according,   10 the old slory, the Suinl hud been originally plnced.    Sfondrali with his owu   hands  removed  the   lid, and wilhin the chesl wus fonnd thu body of the virgin with  a  silken  veil  spread   over ber rich dress,  on  wbich could  still  be  seen the stains of blood,  while  at her feet yet luy the  bloody   clolhs •A-hich had been pluced there more thnn thirteen cuiiinries before. She was lying upon her rigb' side, her feet a  li-ile drnivii  up,her arms extended and resting one upon thu other, her neck lurn ed  so  that  her   head rested upon the left cheek.      Her  form   perfectly   preserved, and   her  altiludo of the aweetesl virginal grace and modes'.y, il seemed as il she lay thero   nsleep ralhor than dead.    The sur cophagus  wbich   wns opened second, was found lo contain three bodies,  which wer^ recognized ns buing. according lo trndiiion, those 01 'I'ibunius, 'Valeria, and Maximus.

Difference iu Cows,
Cows, under certain conelitulionni cir- cumsinncus, are naturally disposed to cniiverl their foud inlo fal, so much to that lliere is great difficulty in kiei'tiigsomo classes in a breeding slate, more especially improving .Short Horns, Devons nnd Here- fords. .

On tho olh.,r hund, there is a class of cows Uttturaily inclined lo turn all their fiod into the pnil. Turn a cow of this iiind nloug with the one nbove, nnd she will niiher gel poorer every day, if Ihe milk is taken from her, while her plump rival is gaining wuighl.
'Phe former will consume greally more grass and water than the latter, returning luril 11 gruater quantity of milk, but infe¬ rior in quality In two dairies, when fed on sour grains, distillers' wash, i&o., thu qual¬ ity someiimes yielded is almosl incredible. When such is the cise, hoivever, life is ijenurully shorl, especially if cows are in a low tlule at calving. Hence the reason why dairymen purchase near calves.
The above two classes may be called extremes, betiveen which there is a mean, mill ihis hitler class of cows if lurned into a rich pasture along ivilh the others, would keep thuiiiselvea in good condition; and give a uiediuin quanlily depending upon the richness ol the food.
