Why Coffee Beaten In a Mortar Is Bet
ter Uiau Coffee Ground In a Mill.
It is not generally known that coffee which
has been beaten is much better thun that which
has been ground. Such, however, is the fact;
and in bis brief article upon the subject, Sav-
arin gives whst he considers the reasons for
the difference. As he remarks, a mere deooo>
tioo of green coffee is a most insipid drink,
but carbonization develops the aroma and au
oil, which is the peculiarity of the coffee we
drink. lie agrees with other writers, that the
Turks excel us in ibis. They employ no mills,
hut beat the berry with wooden pestles in mor
tars. When long used the pestles become pre
cious and bring great prioes. lie determined
by aoiual experiment which of the two meth
ods wax ibe' beat. He burned carelully a
pound of good Mocha, -u.d separated it into
i wo equal portious. The oue whs passed
through the mill—itie o'her beaten after the
Turkish fashion in a mortar. He made coffee
of each. Taking equal weights of each, and
pouring on an equal weight of boiling water,
he treated them both precisely alike. He
tasted this coffee himself, and caused other
compitcnt judges to do so. The uuanimous
opinion was, that cofleo bealeu in a mortar
was far better than that ground id a mill. And
after mentioning, that any one may repeal the
experiment, he tells a strange anecdote of the
influence of one or the other kind of manipu
lation, viz : 44 Monsieur,” said Napoleon one
day to Laplace, 44 how comes it that a glass of
water into which 1 put a lump of loaf sugar
tastes more pleasantly than if 1 had put in the
same quantity of crushed sugar?” 44 Sire,”
said the philosophic senator, •* there ure three
substances, the constituents of which are iden
tical—sugar, guru and arnidon ; they differ on
ly in certain conditions, the secret of which
nature has preserved I think it possible that
in the effect produced by the pestle some sac
charine particles become cither gum or ami-
don, and cause the diflerence.” This remark
became public, and Savarin says ulterior ob-
servutions have confirmed the truth of it.—

Michael Angelo aud Pope Julius.
Through the anxiousness of Dratnante, M.
Angelo was engaged to paint the ceiling of ihc
(he Sistine Chapel. In vain he represented
Unit bis art was sculpture, and proposed Re-
phael in his ttead The Pope was inflexible,
and in May, 1508, the ceiling was commen
ced. Doing ignorant of fresco painting, M.
Angelo at first engaged mediocre artists io as-
nisi, him with his work ; but one day in a
fit cf irration he drove them away, and eras
ed all they had accomplished. Another diffi
culty was caused by the scaffolding. H : iber-
to the rude plan bad been adopted of nailing
a beam from limber to limber, which being
pulled down after tha painting was compleisd,
left the unsighty marks of (he nails’ inden
ture.* in the plaster. This did not satisfy M.
Angelo. His ready wit designed a scaffold
ing, which ehould meet every necessity, and
which is the model of those used with but
alight alteration alike present day. Mean
while, he shut himself up alone in the chapel,
exciting the curiosity of the Pope, and dispu
ting angrily with his mensengers. Julius was
in a fever of excitement. The man who had
beasted that he “ was lord and master of hu
man cattle,” had at last found one not sc rea
dy to baud to the yoke. 44 When will you have
done ?” roared t he Pope's legates. '* When it
is convsaisnt,” quietly replied the painter.—
At last they tote down the scaffolding, and
amidst a clamor of admiration, the Dante of
Painting was revealed to the wotld. In No
vember, 1609, * 4 Kome itself,” stye Vasari,
44 rushed lo the Sistine Chapel.” Julius was
ths Are! te go. “ You mutt put • little gold
eu the figures,” said he. “ My chapel will
seem very poor.” “ Those whom 1 have pain
ted were the poor of this world,” proudly re
joined M. Angelo. And the paintings remain
ed untouched. —Fdectie Review.
