MACON. GEORGIA: T’F.SDAYMORNING, OCTOBER 30. For the Telegraph. Science and Invention. PRINTING OF EARTHENWARE. The printing of earthenware has usually been effected by transfer papers from engraved cop per-plates The ink used in printing is made of linseed oil boiled with litharge, rosin, balsam of sulphur, and is tinted with any of the usual mineral colors—blue being the principal, and formed of oxide of cobalt. The color having e been ground very fine, the printer blends it with his oil upon a hot stove, and filling the en graved plate with it, takes off the impression by the common rolling press. The tissue paper used for this purpose is first prepared with a solution cf soap. As soon as the print is taken, the engraving is cut out with the scissors, and the plate placed upon the biscuit ware, which, being absorbent, holds it with great tenacity. The operator then, with the end of a cylinder of flannel, tightly rolled and bound with twine, rubs the print with such force as to work the ink into close contact with the biscuit The articles, thus coated with paper, are then put into a tub of water, ami the paper being wiped off with a sponge, every minute point of the engraving is found ac curately transferred to the ware. By another method, the patterns are executed on the bis cuit by painters, who lay on the colors in gum wat*r. The biscuit ware thus ornamented, is then dipped into a tub containing a finely ground mixture, which, when melted, forms the glossy coating to the ware. This glaze is blended in water, which, being absorbed by the biscuit, leaves a thin cover of glazing-pow der upon the surface. IMPROVED SAFETY LAMP. An English inventor, who has had much ex. perience in mining operations, has recently brought forward an improved safety larrp for miners in action, the object being to provide fl-r them more light than they obtain from the lamps now in use, with greater security from danger. To increase the brilliancy of the light, air is admitted into the oil pan at the top, through two short tin tubes, about one six teenth of an inch in diameter; and greater se curity is also obtained by various internal ar rangements, which prevent the flame from as cending when brought into combustible air, and by giving it greater external strength.— No external agitation of the air outside the lamp can effect the flame. It is considered, also, that oil will be found much more economi cal than candles, now so much used, and which are known to be so exceedingly dangerous.— The construction of this lamp appears to be such as to make it very useful and reliable. preservative solutions for railroad timber. According to the experience of railroad man agers, the wooden superstructure of a railroad, unless protected against the assaults of heat and moisture, will last only eight years. Sev eral methods have been suggested to guard against this waste of capital—Kyan’s process of immersing timber in a corrosive sublimate Bethel s mode of forcing a solution of coal oil or pyrolignite of iron into the timber under a heavy pressure,and Burnett’s process of forcing chloride of zinc into it by nearly the same means. The expense of the apparatus by the above process, and the difficulty in properly locating it, have been objections to the plans named.— It has therefore been proposed to try the prin ciple of capillary attraction, and tire correct way shown by nature in the vegetable process, viz ; by expelling and following the sap longi tudinally through the pores and tubes of the timber. The sills are placed vertically with the butt ends down, in a lightly corked tank eight feet deep. When the tank is packed with sills, efficient solution is added to fill tJ the top of the sills. The pressure oi a column seven feet in height is maintained at the butt of the sills, the sap is expelled, and the pre serving solution takes its place. This plan is at once both simple and economical, and the results obtained by its employment has been highly satisfactory. By this treatment, the gain in the weight of the sills impregnated, ranges from 6.1 pounds per sill, to 11.5, according to the kind of tim ber operated upon, and the absorption is from 0.52 to 0.78 of a gallon per cubic foot. Heavy timber impregnated in larger tanks, ranges from 0 43 to 1.10 of a gallon per cubic foot.— The labor involved in this process is only in lifting and carrying tbe timber. artificial bone for filling teeth. The osteoplastic or artificial bone for filling teeth, has been successfully introduced in this country, and is stated to possess several ad vantages over other materials for that purpose. It can be colored while in a plastic state to suit the shade of the tooth that is to be filled; it does not harden so quickly but that there is plenty of time afforded for finishing it smooth ly. yet it hardens in a few minutes so as not to be disturbed by the movements of the tongue, or even by rinsing the mouth, and in a few hours it will resist the action of mastication.— One ounce of this new substance will fill as many cavities as two ounces of gold foil.— Another peculiar advantage which the osteo plastic possesses over gold for filling, is in the fact of its being a non-conductor—no after pain being experienced by the patient from hot or cold drinks, as is often the case with gold or other fillings. It also adheres firmly to the bone, and consequently is not liable to come out of ill shaped cavities. As it is introduced in a plastic slate, it saves much time and trou ble, and requires little or no pressure. It al so never changes color, nor does it discolor the tooth. PRODUCTION OF WATER GAS. Another arrangement for the production of water gas for illuminating purposes, has been contrived by a Paris inventor. He brings su perheated steam in contact with the decompo- sing material, and when the gts is produced it is purified by passing through hydrate of lime, either alone or mixed with carbonate of soda. The steam is superheated by passing through tubes inbeded in the brickwork of the furnace, and arrangements are made for the ejection of the steam upon the decomposing material in such a manner, that this latter shall be kept equally heated. Another feature in the inven tion consists in the use of an improved burner, which is similar to the argand, except, that the gas instead of being permitted to escape from the orifices in the usual manner, is conducted through tubes one and a half or two inches long. To impart luminousness to the hydro gen flame, wicks are employed composed of an allay of platinum and iridium. SOUNDING APPARATUS. A sounding apparatus has been devised, de signed to avoid friction upon the line, while at the same time the line is not dispensed with, but is made use of as in the ordinary mode, though more advantageously. Methods have been proposed in which a line is dispensed with by detaching a float at the bottom, when the plummet strikes, and watch ing for the return of the float to the surface; but this is impracticable, as there is no material applicable, so far as is known, that will float to the surface from the bottom of the sea, on ac count of the great pressure, which condenses the bulk, so as to render bodies specifically lighter than water at the surface, heavier than water at even moderate depths. A line must therefore be used to bring back to the surface any machine by which the depth may be reg istered in the descent; and the motion of this line in an extended form in the water must be avoided. The improved apparatus is designed to se cure the object named, by attaching to the sink er a tube or case in which the sounding line is compactly coiled, and from which itisdischarg ed freely, thus causing the plummet to carry down the coil, while one end of the line is held fast at the surface; the line being uncoiled from the descending sinker in the manner that a spi der falling from a height gives out a thread in his descent, by which he retains communication with the point above to which the thread is at tached. METALLIC PACKINGS FOR PISTONS. The arrangement of metallic packings for pis tons is now effected by a new method. There is a circular spring inside at the back of the metallic packing pieces, as is at present usual. There is a plain hoop at the back of the metallic packing cut in one place so as to allow it to ex pand. Inside of this there is another hoop, which is a spring with the ends turned in, and a space between to allow of expansion or con traction, according to the usual method. The novelty consists in the packing pieces being in two circles in the depth one above the other, each circle divided into three, four, or more seg ment pieces. The pieces of the top circle are connected with the pieces of the lower circles by pins, and placed so as to break joint From this arrangement it is obvious that as the pack ing pieces wear away on the outside, the inside spring expands and keeps them in their place. The top and bottom circular packing pieces, be ing arranged to break joint as above described, keep the whole steam tight. PERPLEXED BRIDEGROOM. Some days since a very rustic and inar" listic couple, residents of Kentucky, near the Tennessee line, concluded marriage to be their destiny, and with this idea, came to the Western Athens, desirous of sacrifi cing themselves to Hymen at the earliest opportunity. In due time they arrived in this city, and repairing to the Spencer House, informed clerk Andrew Blum that they were extrem ly intent on perpetrating matrimony, and that nothing could thwart their purpose.— Mr. Blum so far from wishing to prevent their amiable immolation, made every eff ort to facilitate their design, and so well did he succeed, that in less than an hour James and Jemima were wedded us firmly as lay in the capacity of a clergyman to bind them. The clerk, after the ceremony had been performed, believing that all newly mar ried people ought to be accommodated as well as possible, gave them a parlor and bedroom on the the third floor, and bade them ‘good evening’ at 10 o ( clock, not for getting to wish them every possible bliss. The twain meekly followed the servant to the rooms, and were left alone there fbr the night; the clerk thinking no more of them until about 2 o’clock, when, sitting dosing in an easychair behind the counter in the office, he was aroused by a voice sav ing : Look here, Mr. Clerk, Oh, Mr. Clerk, I’d like to speak to you jest one minit!’’ Mr. Blum opened his eyes, and beheld his rustic friend, hatless and coatless, with flushed face and disheveled hair, and such generally disarranged attire as indicated he had been undergoing some violent exer cise. Well, sir, of what benefit can I be to you’ ?’ “ Why—why, I don’t like to trouble you and I don’t know how you fellows do things in this big town ; but, but— But what my good friend, asked the clerk anxious to free the ruralist from his con fusion, which was each moment on the in crease. “Why you know we’re married, Jemi ma and me.’’ “ Oh, yes, and I wish you all manner of good fortune, my fine fellow.’’ “ Wai, I spose you do; but counfound meefl can git the hang of things in this darned place. Maybe I’m green—and I guess lam sort o’ that way—but, by jingoes, you does funny here I” “ Explain, ifyou please, my man. What do you wish to say ?’’ “ We don’t care, Jemima and me for a little while, but to roll on the floor all night is devilish hard, stranger, I’l swear it is.” “ Roll on the floor what do you mead ?’’ “ Wai. I's’pose it isn’t fashionable in big towns; but, by gumbo, where we come from married people allers goes to bed.’’ “ Havn’t you been to bed ?” asked the clerk, in great surprise. “ Why, how the devil could we go to bed when there were’nt no bed to go to ? That’s what we want the wust sort.” “ My good fellow, there’s a bed in your room. Did you not see it in the rear of your parlor ?” “Did you give us more’n one room, stran ger ? By jingoes I didn’t know it. Il’s all 1 want —all right, old fellow’!’’ So saying, he ran up stairs, and before the clerk could ascend to the chamber the bucolicist was in bed, and replied to the knock on the door : “ All right, now; I’ve found it—Jemi ma and me are satisfied. We don’t want you : all right. God bless you, old fellow All right—fust rate, God bless you ; good ’ uight I” Mr. Blum went back to the office, chuck ing at the idt a of the unfortunate ru. ralist and his biick passing four hours in h s i parlor without even supposing that theie Wai a bed chamber attached, Poor simpleton, no wonder he was em barrassed and troubled—under the circum stances.
