COINS OP THE CONFEDERACY.
An Interesting btorj of the Confederate
Gold Medalet and the Four Silver Half
Dollars.
As tar as can be ascertained, says the
C harleston A’etc* and Courier , no gold
coin was issued by the Confederate States.
The Uichmond Standard of Aug. , 1879,
however, published the following account
of a ConAderate gold medalet whieß was 1
said to have been coined in 1861:
“There is in t-e possession of C. F.
Johnston, music and news dealer, 918
Fast Main street, in tuts city, an inter
esting memorial of the late Confederate ;
States. It is a coin or medalet of fine
gold, eleven sixteenths of an inch in di
ameter, with milled edge, nearly one-six
leentb of an inch in thickness. Obverse:
1 ne head of tne Confederate President in
bold relief and in profile to the left, with
the initials C. K. closely beneath and tbe
title, ‘Jefferson Davis,’ encircling above.
Kevere: Tbe typical wreath of acacia ol
tbe United States coins, encircling tbe
date ‘1861.’ Legend above, ‘First Presi
dent C. 8. A.’ Mr. Johnston states that
be was informed by the lady trom whom
he obtained the medalet that it was de
signed by the late Gen. Charles Dim
mock.”
In the American Journal of Numismat
ics of October, 1879, reference is made to
this medalet. Mr. R. A. Brock, of Rich
mond, V., writes as lollows to that jour
nal concerning it:
“Tne C. S. A. medalet, it is fair to pre
sume. was designed (the drawing I sup
pose) by tbe late Gen. Charles Dimmock,
as l have seen a letter f,om his daughter
who disposed ot the specimen described,
in which she states that the design was
furnished by her father in 1801, since
w hich time the medal has been in her pos
session. I have no surmise as to tbe en
graver. The medalet in question 1 think
not so well executed as it w ould have been
it prepare i since the war and designed
for sale. The metal, too—gold—is against
such a supposition, and this specimen has
been worn as a charm, suspended by a
loop which was soldered to the com. It
bears marks, too, of an attempt at pierc
ing on both sides near the edge for the
same purpose.”
The same journal, ot April, 1879, has
this to say on the subject of Coulederate
coinage:
-It has been believed and recorded as
an historical laet th and the Southern Con
federacy had no metallic currency. After
a lapse of eighteen years evidence now
presents itself to show that four coins
were struck off at the New Orleans mint,
wbii*- that place was in tbe possession ot
liit- Confederate Government. This dis
cuit r> hus been brought about by a Rec
■•i i item,entitled A Craze for Coins,’
w nieh gave the ianey prices placed upon
i rare pieces. A few days subsequent to
the publication Mr. Mason, the nurais-
I matlst of 148 North Tenth street, l’hila
; delphia, who was incidentally referred to,
, received a communication from B. F.
Taylor, Yi.D.. the Secretary and Treasu
rer of the Louisiana State Board of Health,
giving the information that he had a
Confederate coin in his possession. In
reply, Mr. Mason wrote for a lead pencil
rubbing of the piece, at the same time
expressing a doubt as to the existence ot
any genuine coins of the Confederate
S„ates. The return mail brought a rub
bing of the coin. The obverse represents
a Lilerty Cap above the American shield,
the union ot the latter containing Beven
stars, representing the seven seceding
Mates, the whole being surrounded with
a wreath of sugar cane and cotton in
bloom and the legend, ‘Confederate States
of America’ above and ‘Half Dol.’ below.
The reverse has the Goddess of Liberty
with the thirteen stars representing the
States from which tin Confederacy sprang
and the date ‘lßol’ in exergue. Tne his
tory of the coin is briefly as follows:
I When the New Orleans mint, was taken
; possession of by the Confederates in April,
; 1801, the original dies of the United States
were canceled in th- presence of tho "fii-
I cials connected with the building. Tue
i Confederate Cabinet, which w as then sit-
I tins at Montgomery, issued orders for a
d'-slgn D r a Confederate currency to Mr.
Taylor, who was then chief coiner of the
mint. The above design was submitted
ami approved, and orders were issued for
the striking off of specimen pieces. Four
half dollars were accordingly coined, and
these, also following the design, were ap
proved bv tbe Cabinet. Then came an
: obstacle. The Cabinet found that it had
not control of sufficient bullion to proceed
with an issue of coin, and consequently
the matt r was deferred and a temporary
i i-sue of paper money decided upon. Tue
subsequent overthrow of the Confederacy,
of course, put an end to all the plans for
coining money.
“Ot the four coins struck one is in the
j, >.-ession of one of the chiefs of the Con
federate Government; the second was
presented to Prof. Biddle, of the Univer
sity of Louisiana; the third to I>r. Ames,
of New Orleans, aud the fourth was re
tained by Chief Coiner Taylor, by permis
sion of the Cabinet.”
Tne Numismatic Journal adds that it is
a noteworthy fact that ail the individuals
who were c<; unected with tue coinage, in
cluding the superintendent of the iniut.
assayer, coiner, engraver, die sinker,
d<>wn to the tnan who held the chisel and
used the hammer in the cancelling of the
old and new dies, were, in April, 1879,
living.
The Ilon.C. G. Memminger, who was
the first Secretary of the Treasury of the
Confederate States, says he has no recol
lection of any gold dollars issued by the
Confederacy.
GUTTING KID OP BLKMISHES.
Moles amt Tattoo Marks Removed by
Means of Electricity.
.Veic York Sun.
A man with a small mole on his chin
climbed up the stoop of a doctor’s office in
West Nineteenth street not long ago.
*•1 waut to get rid of the mole,” he said,
when a young doctor came out and asked
him wbat tne matter was.
“Stip right in, and I’ll do it,” the doc
tor responded, as he reached fora large
m hoganv box containing a polished
electrical machine, with insulated wire
running from the battery to a neat carved
handle. The doctor sat the patient down
in an easy chair, threw his head
back, and dressed the mole deftly with a
local anesthetic that gradually benumbed
the flesh until it was roblied of all sensi
tiveness. Then the doctor fitted a tiny
strip of platinum into the handle and
turned on the full force of the battery.
Tbe platinum was agiow with a pure
white heat in a twinkling. The doctor
drew it slowly and carefully through the
mole, as if he were using a razor blade.
Tee patient felt the glow- of the intense
heat through h:s cheek, but the burning
away of the mole was as painless as it
was rapid. When a soothing salve had
i<et n applied the doctor sent the patient
away happy. He told him that iu less
than a month the wound would heal with
out leaving a scar.
“Few of the public know of the
process, although it is simply an elabora
tion of tbe one used to re move cancers
and similar growths on the neck and
body,” voting Police Surgeon Satterlee
said. “Ladies who would be otherwise
faultless in complexion can have blotches
painlessly removed by the same process
without marking the flesh. Superfluous
hair can be permanently eradicated in a
second’s time by a single touch of the
plaiiuum needle. Its greatest usetul
uess, however, is in removing tattooing
marks from the arms and hanUs. About
nine boys out of every dozen are crazy to
disfigure themselves that way, and they
regret it for years afterwards because
they think the disfigurement is Tor life.
N >•- ty ever made a Digger mistake.
“Any piece of tattooing on the body can
be entirely removed, aud, if properly done,
no sear need be lelt. The process is a
gradual ouc, because the eradication has
to lie done piecemeal, and care exercised
to prevent the platinum needle from
burning m re than half through the inner
cuticle. '1 is caution will render the
scarring of u skin after the wound heals
impoasole.”
“Well, I sin!” cried one of Capt.
Williams’ tnts, suddenly baring his
arm and displaying some fine sailor tat
tooing. -I'll come around to-morrow
and have you begin on that. It’s
made me unhappy for twenty years to
look at it.” ’
The Opera Puffs Cigarette will find|a
cordial welcome among its old patrons

THE SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, MARCH 29, 1885.
THE FIELD, FARM AND GARDEN.
We solicit articles for this department.
The name of the writer should accompany
the letter or article, not necessarily
for publication, but as evidence of good i
faith.
Agricultural Schools.
Continuing this subject from last week,
we will endeavor to convey some idea ol
what wo mean by the “practical” in agri
cultural education.
When young lawyers and doctors have
gone through college and studied their
professions, it is generally understood
that they have mastered their several
theories and are then prepared to enter
upon “practice,” which alone perfects
knowledge and makes success possible.
But the medical student, while pursuing
his studies and attending lectures, has
also the practical advantage of the dis
secting room. Ilere he learns by actual
test and examination the mysteries of
human anatomy and makes himself fa
miliar with all its peculiarities, that he
may know bow to treat it in its diseased
forms. But for this he would be totally
in the dark when called to treat a patient,
and would discover his theory to be ut
terly worthless, sinee no amount of glit
tering generalities gleaned from the field
of science would demonstrate the precise
effect of a given medicine in a given dis
ease.
The agricultural student, however, ac
cording to the system of our present
schools, is expected to be more brilliant.
Theory is supposed to be all that he needs
and that when be comes to apply his
classic lore to the .plow-handles, the two
will harmonize and develop success as
readily as some of his chemical elements
combined to produce others. But what
must be the mortification of the young
man on disc vering that this was a mis
take of his alma mater, and what his hu
miliation on finding that he must cross
over the way to inquire of that illiterate
but practical old farmer how to plant
peas? It might also be asked what would
be the judgment of that practical old
farmer upon the merits of an agricultural
college that graduated professional farm
ers without one practical idea of farming
operations? The “variations” cf these
operations are so great, it is contended,
that It is not practicable to teach them in
the schools. This is true, if by school is
meant the routine of lessons inside the
college buildinge; but agricultural schools
should have grounds attached lor farming
and gardening purposes, and a member ot
each taculty should be a practical agri
culturist. This professor would be able
to demonstrate in the field the truth or
falsity ot tbe theories promulgated in the
lecture rooms and induce the pupil to try
his skill and judgment in the practical
: operations of his future calling. The
| “variations” would be explained to him
as he advanced, and as his mind devel
oped he would begin to discover in the
excellencies of practical knowledge the
beauties of agricultural pursuits. He
would soon learn that the “variations”
were but endless avenues leading to new
resources, tempting him to further inves
tigation and increasing his interest at
every step. A professor uniting theory
and practice would make him familiar
with the nature of soils, their elements
and varieties—tue changes they undergo,
their improvements and deteriorations
under the influence of water, of drought,
ot heat, cold and in the production of
plants. 110 would be shown the effects
of the various fertilizers and how to use
them after acquiring a proper knowledge
of their several ingredients, and he would
be taught to combine and manipulate
them for pra tical larm purposes. His
attention would be specially directed to
plant life and growth, their values and
adaptability to climate and soil, and the
conditions governing the production of
such as are found important in commerce
and trade; and he would be taught as a
specialty the primary importance of se
lection in seeds for pi anting, together
with the line arts of grafting, budding,
rooting and hybridizing, by which several
means all the fruits of the world have
been so much improved and myriads of
new kinds brought iu as factors in animal
and human subsistence. lie would have
pointed out the beautiful combinations of
tie 60il and the gases of the atmosphere
to produce plants, and their co-operation
with heat and moisture to fertilize tne
earth aud make provision for its teeming
millions. Then would follow the arts of
cult ivation, without a knowledge of which
all his talents would be wasted and his
efforts vain. By practical science man
has learned how to cultivate and improve
the soil, and whole nations have perished
from off' the earth for want of this knowl
edge. The advancement in thi9 art lies
at the foundation of the world’s commer
cial greatness, and the extraordinary
growth of our own great country can be
traced to the same source. Of course,
then, the agricultural student would be
fully instructed in the art oi cultivation
with all its known variations, and con
ducted even to the verge of empiricism,
that he may distinguish between the beat
en and the unbeaten path and find room
for the flight of his own genius should he
chance to possess it. After seeing it de
monstrated fer two or three years and
taking a hand in it himself, he would not
have to ask his neighbor bow to plant
peas or an> thing else; nor would his ig
norance of practical agriculture cast re
proach upon the school from which he
graduated.
These constitute a few of the points
that could be made practical tn our agri
cultural schools, aud tbe neglect of which
has caused them to be regarded U 9 bur
lesques upon agricultural institutions.
There are numerous others that may be
included with equal utility, aud will be,
whenever our schools wake up to the im
portance of the subject, and to the ful
fillment of their promises to tho agricul
tural population.
Scrub Farmers.
The Practical Farmer says: “The day
has gone by when it is considered that
any dolt of a fellow is good enough for a
farmer. Agriculture is one of the profes
sions requiring for its highest success the
very best training of ali the best intel
lectual faculties. No profession has to
deal with such numerous and intricate
conditions as the farmer, and his observa
tion must cover a wide range, and his
habits of thought and judgment must be
trained in the proper channels or he can
not compete successfully with his more
witle-awake and better-intormed neigh
bors. YYith cheap lands, not yet drawn
upon for the fertility stored up in them
by nature, and with scrub cattle ranging
the woods or public commons, most any
body could get along with almost any
management. But times are changed,
lands have increased in price while dete
riorating in quality, and there is now a
necessity tor better methods, and better
farmers, and better live stock. And the
new class of fanners appreciate the ne
cessity of keeping read up and posted in
their profession and understand tho ad
vantage of study and method, and can see
where brains and intelligently-directed
thought count even more than muscle.
And there is nothing which so accurately
indicates the extent and rapidity of this
improvement as the earnestness and zeal
and intelligence displayed on every band
in the improvement of all classes of live
stock. He must be blind, indeed, who
cannot perceive that ‘the world moves.’ ”
When vessels or timber sink to great
depths in the ocean the pressure Is so
great that water is forced into the pores
and the wood becomes too heavy to rise
again. Even when a ship is broken up
the detached portions sink like lead. It
is this pressure that makes it impossible
for divers to descend to any great depths.
Poultry Yards.
Tbe yard of the fowl house should be,
for the summer season, as extensive as
possible. It the good of the lowls only be
considered, Its limits should be those of
the larm, thrugh it would even then be
well to have it subdivided sa that a yard
could be plowed and sowed to grain, or
lettuce or collards, and the fowi3 be kept
off until the greens could get a proper
growth. For a winter yard, however, a
very moderate space is required. The
chief requisites are dryness and exposure
to the southern sun. If there are several
flocks of fowls in the same yard the flocks
should be separated by fences running
east and west. This gives to each fence
the greatest possible length of fence with
a southern exposure. Such a fence should
be of close boards, either tongued or bat
tened, and against at least a portion of it
nearest the house there should be a roof
that will turn the ram completely, so as
to have the ground always dry beneath.
If this roof is three feet above tbe ground
at the eaves and extends lour feet out
from the fence, tbe fowls will have a warm
run whenever the sun shines and a dry
one in all weather, except immediately
after a drifting snow storm. At such
times, if the temperature is low, the at
tendant should clear all the snow out from
under the roof at once. That is easily
done with a broad wooden hoe. The
ground under this sunning shed should
slope to the front so that melting snow
and the drips from the eaves shall not
form pools of water and masses of ice
under the roof.
Certain classes of fowls will fly upon
such a roor, and, of course, this must
either be prevented or the fence must be
carried higher by wire netting to prevent
their getting out.
House Plants.
Many growers of house plants make the
mistake at the outset of trying to root
cuttings in the shade, fearing that if they
are put in the sunlight they will wilt.
This is a mistake, especially in the case
of the geraniums, which cannot have too
much light when rooting. Give them
plenty of sunshine and do not deluge them
with water if you would not have them
decay instead of rooting. Never attempt
to strike cuttings, or even to grow plants,
in any receptacle which has no drainage.
In potting plants be careiul to press the
earth firmly down on the roots and leave
irom half an inch to an inch, at least,
space at the top of the pot. In order that
tbe plant may be easily w atered. When
pots are tilled to the very top with earth,
watering is a tedious process and the
earth is apt to splash out on the shelves.
In watering enough should be given so
that it will penetrate to the oottorn of the
pot. A slight watering at the top does not
reach the tine roots deep down in tbe pot.
On the contrary, do not oversvater. Never
keep the earth in a pasty condition, or
with water standing on the surface, as
this will kill most plants in a short time.
Many hard-wooded plants are easily
rooted by placing the cutting in a bottle
of water in a light place and supplying
water as it evaporates.
This is a very good way to root oleander,
daphne ii dica, and is, perhaps, a better
treatment for the myrtle in the hands of
amateurs than the ordinary way of root
ing in earth. The achania and lemon
verbena may also be thus treated. Coleus
and chrysanthemums root very easily by
this method. The rex begonia is another
plant which can be rooted in w ater.
Fruit Jellies.
The Caterer says: “We often see dis
played in many grocery stores tumblers
of jellies bearing different labels, such as
currant, plum, raspberry, strawberry,
etc., and offered for sale at a price that
should at once be sufficient to put the at
tracted purchaser on his guard as to their
character. In many, nay in most cases,
they do not contain a particle of the fruit,
the name of which they bear upon their
labels, but are all made from apple par
ings. These parings are mostly bought
from those who make a business ot drying
apples for winter use, and, together with
the cores,are packed in barrels and shipped
to the jelly maker, who stores them aw ay
till wanted. In the mean time they un
dergo fermentation and putrefaction, and
in this condition look more like swill than
food for human beings. After this they
are converted into jelly by boiling and
adding sugar. This jelly is the stock lrom
which th-. various jellies aro made, the
process being simply to color them to cor
respond with the fruit whose substance
they are supposed to be, and then flavor
them with fraudulent essences.”
Ilie Tulip, Crocus ami Snowdrop.
The best soil for the culture of the tulip
is a rich, rather strong, well-drained loam.
Abed of sufficients zefor the bulbs should
be dug at least twelve inches deep. The
bulbs should then be placed six inches
apart each way, and pressed into the soil
deep enough to keep them in their places,
then covered with soli to Un depth of three
inches on the sides of the beu aud live
inches in the centre. This precaution is
necessary tifat water mav hot stand on
the bed during winter. The bed should
be mulched to prevent alternate freezing
and thawing. When the flowers appear
if they are protected from the sun by a
light canvas the period of bloom will be
longer. The colors are generally better if
not shaded at all, but in that case the
bloom would soon be over. Sometimes a
single hot dav completely spoils them.
When the flowers begin to fade they should
be cut away and removed trom tbe bed,
as the faded flower seems to seriously af
fect the foliage, causing disease, besides
the ripening ot the seeds injures the bulb.
As soon as the leaves of the tulip turn
yellow’ the bulbs should l>e taken up and
stored In a cool dry place until time lor
replanting.
Tulips may remain in the ground year
alter year without injury, but lor the fact
that the new bulbs lorm at the base of the
old one, consequently they get deeper in
the soil each year, until Anally they get
so deep that they tail to come up at all.—
Fruit Recorder.
To Remove Foreign Bodies from the
Eye.
Before resorting to any metallic instru
ment for this purpose, Dr. C. D. Agnew
( American Practitioner, May, 1884) would
advise you to use an instrument made in
the tollowing manner: Take a splinter of
soft wood, pine or cedar, and whittle it
into the shape of a probe, making it about
the length of an ordinary dressing probe.
Then take a small, loose flock ot cotton
over the end of the stick, winding it round
and round, so as to make it adhere firmly.
If you will look at tbe end of such a probe
with a two-inch lens >ou will see that it
is quite rough, the fibres of cotton making
a file-like extremity, in the midst of which
are little interstices. As the material is
soft it will do no harm to theoornea when
brushed over its surface.
When ready to remove the foreign body
have the patient rest his head against
ycur chest, draw the upper lid up with
the forefinger of your left hand and press
the lower lid down with tbe middle finger,
and then delicately sweep tne surface in
which the foreign body is embedded with
the end of the cotton probe. When the
foreign body is lodged in the centre of the
cornea it is most important not to break
up the external elastic lamina, for if you
do opacity may follow, and the slightest
opacity in the centre of the cornea will
cause a serious diminution in tbe sharp
ness of vision.
Art of Plant Potting.
Plants like fresh soil. To grow a plant
well we must pot it often. If we put a
small plant into a large pot ten to one the
leaves will get yellow after a while unless
the plant be some rank growing, weedy
thing. The roots rot—that is, the feeding
roots rot. In common parlance the ar
deners say the soil sours. To guard against
this, as soon as a little pot is full of roots
it is put into a larger one—that is, one but
just large enough to contain a little more
earth between the old ball and the new
pot. The experienced gardener continues
this practice every few weeks, so that
before the season is over the plant that
started in a three-inch pot may find itsejf
in one six inches or more, and when it is
so grown manure water does not hurt the
plant. This cannot be done with the little
plant in the large pot, since manure water
makes the sour soil still sourer and the
end of tae plant is soon attained.
HOUSEHOLD NOTES.
Baking Powder.'— Eight ozs. soda, 4
o*s. cream tartar, 4 ozs. tartaric acid, 10
ozs. wheat fl.>ur. Pulverize finely and
mix. K' ep tightly covered. One heaping
teaspoonful to a quart ot flour will be
sufficient for most baking. Pancakes and
corn bread require more baking powder
ot any kind than other things.
Pomeranian Boi p.—a quart of white
beaus uiu.t be boiled soft in water, mash
half of them, thin them with broth and
work them through a sieve. Let these
boil with the broth to a smooth soup, in
which has been boiled a head of celery cut
small. Add the whole beans, a mild sea
soning of sweet herbs, some parsley, salt
and pepper. Let ail boil a quarter of an
hour and serve.
Fish Fritters.—Take any kind of
cooked fresn fish and remove all the bones,
aud chop it finely with half the quantity
of bread crumbs. Addbaif the quantity
of cold, mashed potatoes. Mix into balls,
alter seasoning well with salt and pep
per, with a little cream or milk, and one
egg well beaten. Fry the lritters in boil
ing hot lard and serve on a hot platter,
garnished with water cresses or parsley.
The first time calicoes are washed, if a
t*-acupful ot salt lie dissolved in a pail of
soft water aod the calicoes are wet thor
oughly in th s, wrun/ out and hung up to
dry the Saturday before they are washed,
then on washing day a halt a gill of ox
gall is stirred into each water oefore the
article is put in it will prevent fading,
end the freshness of the calico, even when
old and worn, will be surprising. A ta
blespoonful of black pepper stirred well
into each water which is used in washing
and rinsing buff calicoes or linens, will
prevent spotting or the color running.
To Ccre Felon.—A correspondent
says: “l wish to tell those who may suf
fer from that terrible affliction, felon, of a
painless remedy that will effect a perfect
cure in 24 hours, as 1 have had occasion
to prove within twoof the last three davs.
A lady came to me who bed beeu suffer
ing over two weeks with a felon on the
end of her middle finger. I saturated a
bit of grated wild turnip, the size of a
bean, with spirits of turpen'ine and ap
plied it to the affected part. It relieved
the pain at once. In 12 hours there was a
hole to the bone, and the felon was de
stroyed. I removed the turnip and ap
plied healing salve, and the finger is
well.”
Fried Apples and Pork Chops.—
Season the chops with salt and pepper
and a little powdered sage and sweet
marjoram; dip them into beaten egg and
then into beaten bread crumbs. Fry about
20 minutes, or until they are done. Put
them on a hot dish; pour off partot the
gravy into another pan to make a gravy
to serve with them if you choose. Then
fry apples which you have sliced about
two-thirds ot an inch thick, cutting them
around the apple so that the core is in the
centre of each piece. When they are
browned on one side and partly cooked,
turn them carefully with a pancake turn
er and let them finish cooking; dish around
the chops or on a separate dish.
If one is going to have company at din
ner and has not much competent help, she
may do a great many things the day be
fore. The turkey may be in readiness lor
stuffing, and the stuffing itself mav be en
tirely prepared tbe day before. The cran
berries should be stewed, the miuce pie
made and all matters relating to table
linen, silver and china definitely arranged
so that attention ntay be concentrated
upon the proper serving of the dinner and
upon the preparation of those disnes
which cannot be cooked until at the last
hour. A holiday dinner should remind
one of Michael Angelo’s picture, of which
he said: “The labor must be scraped off
when the scatfolding is taken away.” To
bo thoroughly enjoyed the dinner should
he so far a work of art that it may appear
to have come easily.
Fruit Loaf made of bread dough is
very nice; after the dough has risen the
first time take a piece about the 6ize you
would need for a loaf of Dread; roll this
out on the kneading hoard until it is not
more than an inch thick; on this spread
any kind of fruit that you choose—Erur
lisn currants, chopped raisins, stewed tigs
oh jam may any of them he used; sprinkle
a little powdered sugar over the fruit and
put some litt'e lumps of butter here and
there on it, or spread the dough with but
ter before putting tha fruit on it. Roll it
up very tightly into a loaf, let it rise and
bake it in a hot oven. Cut it in thick
slices when done. Tnis may take the
form of a plain pudding; in this case it
must be served hot, with sauce. The
sauce should be rich and highly seasoned,
aud the pudding must be cut in thin
slices, aud the sauce should he very hot,
so that it will penetrate and soften the
crust.

According to Mr. J. Harrington Douty,
of the asylum at Worcester, England, an
imperfect atipplv of oxygen, or simply
breathing a vitiated atmosphere, may
suffice to produce the mental disorder
known as melancholia.
Suberine, the characteristic component
of cork, is a true lat, saponifiable by al
kalies and oxidizable by nitric acid, which
converts it into a mixture of suberic acid
and ceric acid. It is composed of the mixed
glycerides of pbellonio and stearic acids.
Vulcanized fibre has been employed for
valves for marine condensers. It is said
to do much better than india rubber.
Valves of this fibre do not skew or corru
gate, withstand well the action of water
and oil, and give very little trouble after
they have been carefully fitted in place.
Aseptol, anew antiseptic, says M. E.
Transer, has for its scientific name or
thoxyphenvl—sulphurous acid. It is an
acid pnenol, capable Of neutralizing am
moniacal bases. It is said to be prefera

possesses the decided advantage ot not
being poisonous.

Botanists have evidence that trees may
attain very long lives. The age of an elm

some palms at from 600 to 700 years; that
of an olive tree at 700 years; of a plane
tree at 720; of a cedar at 800; of an oak
at 1,500; of a yew at 2,880; of a taxodium
at 4,000, and of a baobab tree at 5,000
years.
For hvgienic reasons wall-paper should
not be made either air or water-tight. The

When the paper is water-proof the damp

other evils.
