CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL,
Jtßscellanj).
SPARE THE FLOWFRS.
’Tis well, young girls, your rosy hours,
To pass in frolic gay ;
But, heedful, spare the tender flowers,
That blossom in your way.
Oh, crush them not 1 but lore them well,
And list to what they say ;
A warning tale to you I tell,
Os soft and swift decay.
Por you, like these fair, fragile flowers,
But bloegom for a day ;
Inks theirs, are brief your sunny hours,
Like them, you pass away.
And though you idly put them by,
In life’s fresh morning hours,
A time shall be when you will sigh
Por thsse unheeded flowers.
When sorrows come, and friends retire,
And early dreams depart,
hopes are fled, you'll then desire
To press them to your heart.
And they shall wake your dreams again,
To bless your closing hours,
When none of all you loved remain,
But these sweet sister flowers. i
To Young Men. —Don’t rely upon ftienda.
Don’t rely upon the good name of yonr ances
tors. Thousands have spent the prime of life
in the vain hope of those whom they called
friends; and thousands have starved because
they had a rich father. Rely upon ihe good name
which ie made by your own exertions, and
know that bstter than the beet friend you can
have, ie unquestionable determination, united
with decision of character. And remember that
without God’s blessings you cannot truly pros
per. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and
Me will direct thy paths.
DirrsBKNOE between Ihon and Steel.—
Steal is iron passed through a process called
cementation, the object of which is to
nate it with carbon. Carbon exists more abun
dantly in charcoal than in any other fusible
substance, and the smoke that goes up from
the charcoal forge is carbon in a fluid state.
Now, if you can manage to confine that smoke,
and heat a piece of Iron at the same time, it will
become steel. Heating the iron opens its pores,
so that the smoke or carbon can enter it.
The furnace for this purpose is a conical build
ing of brick, in the middle of which aro two
troughs of brics or stone, which hold about four
tons of bar iron. At the bottom is a large grate
for the fire. A layer of charcoal dust ie put up
on the bottom of the troughs, then a layer of bar
iron; and so on alternately, until the troughs
are full. They are then covered over with clay,
to keep out the air, whichlif admitted would, pre
vent the cementation. Fire is then communi
cated to the wood and coal with which the fur
nace is filled, and continued until the conversion
of the iron into steel is completed, which gene
rally happens in about eight or ten days. Tills
is known by the blisters on the bars, which the
workmen occasionally draw out to determine.
When the conversion is completed, the fire is
then left to go out, and the bars remain in the
furnace about eight days more, to cool.
The bars of steel are then taken out and cither
sold as blistered steel or drawn to a convenient
site, when It is called tilted steel. German steel
is made out of this blistered steel, by breaking
the bars into short pieces and welding them
together, drawing them down to a proper size for
use.
Gold abd Silver —The New York Journ
al ©f Commerce has aa article showing the
total amount ofgeld that has been obtained
from California. It makes it equal in value to
$120,000,000, to eboat one ha f the total coin
age of thii country once its separation from
Groat 'Britain. ‘ ‘The production of gold (it
says) has appreciated the valoe of silver in
comparison, and that too at a time when the
relative value has been increased by a
series of financial movements in Europe
heretofore folly explained, so that we are fast
losing our silver coin. The only remedy
which appears feasible, and likely to bo gen
orally acceptable to the country, seems to be
for Congresa to authorize a seignorage to be
taken from all new issues of silver coin.
It csnnot obtain a free ciroalation at its present
value, large pieces are qeiokly taken for ex
port. There are many objactions to alloying
the coin with baser metals which would not
apply te reducing the weight Let 7 per cent,
be taken by the Government from the present
vaine of the silver coin, and gold made the
sola legal tender far aR amounts above three
or five dollars, and the export of coin would
at once be steppet, while no one could be
wronged. The present coins would be worth
their value to the holders; the new coin could
bo obtained at par for the convenience of
change ; and the Government would be reim
bursed for all the expenses of the mint.”
Brtad-Baking by Steam.— The English pa-
Eers contain an account of a new method of
aking bread. The biead is pronounced to be
excellent, and superior to that baked on the
•Id principle. A description of the process
will not be found uninteresting. When the
loaves are moulded, they are placed on a car
nage. and conveyed on railways into the oven
■—which is made of cast iron, and placed one
above the other. The doors being closed, the
•team is then turned on from the boiler, and
passing through a singularly formed cod of
pipes, heated to a high degree, in a furnace of
remarkable construction, is, by opening the
valves, admitted to the ovens- The baking
process, from the time of running in the car
riages to drawing them out again, occupies
from half an hour to an hoar and a
half, aecording as the loaves vary in size.
There are perforated pipes placed equal dis
tances inside the ovens, by which means a!l
parts are alike heated. The heat is kept with
in determinate theometric limits by the ad
justment of the valves, and the degree ascer
tained by an indicator, the “bulb” being
scarcely thicker than a cobweb, yet ranging
from ISO to 800 Fahrenheit. 3 8 S
Chinese Method of Welding Cracked Iron-
Wtre.— Mr* Balestier, who wont on a raitaion
to the East, describes for the information of
the Commissioner of Patents, the Chinese
method of Welding craoked iron-ware, by ce
mooting them with east iron while in a liquid
state. In a cast iron pan which Mr. B. pro
eared to be welded, the operator commenced
by breaking the edge* of the fracture slightly
with a hammer so as to enlarge the fissures af
ter which the fractnred parts were placed
and held in their natural positions by means
of wooden braces. The pan being ready, cru
cibles made of day were laid in charcoal, and
ignited m a small portable shoet iron fnrnace,
with bellows working horizontally. As soon
as the pieces of cast iron with which the cruci
bles were charged were fnsed, it was poured
on a la, er of partly charred busk of rough rice,
or paddy, which was previously spread on a
thickly doubled doth, the object of which is to
prevent.the sudden coiling and hardening of
tha liquid metal. Whilst in this liquid state it
was quickly conveyed witk the right hand to
the fractured part under the vessel, and forc
ed up with a jerk into the enlarged fissure,
whilst with the left hand a paper rubber was
passed over the obtruding liquid of the vessel,
making a strong, substantial and neat opera
tion. r
In the city of Aberdeen, Scotland the streets
are swept every day at a cost of £1,400. and
the refuse brings in £t,o#o a yaar. In Perth
the scavenging cost, £1.300 per annum, and
the mannre sells for £1,730.
The objectof all ambition should be to be
happy at home. If we happy there, we
eannot be happy elsewhere. It U the best
proof of the virtues of a family circle to see a
happy fireside.

American Gbowth. —The Cincinnati Com*
mcrcisl makes mention of a venerable citixen
now living in the neighborhood es that city
who, being in his eighty-sixth year, ean remem
ber the singing of the Declaration of Indepen
dence. He has voted at every Presidential
election since tho organisation of the Govern
ment. The Commercial says:
“He descended the Ohio river, sad passed the
point where Cicc»anati now stands before * single tree
had been felled upon the spot, and before even a
thought of our present power had entered iete the
dreamy phantasies of prephetio spaculation. Think
of it 1 One new among os—one among two hand red
thousand in the busy uproar of hunnero —one who
<tood upon the ground where we now live before
Cincinnati was hern I We can scarcely realise it;
hut yet it ia »#. The onward aatreh of impetuous
civilisation has worked wonders in this great country
of ours. This old man oan yet see to read without
hia glasses, and is possessed es the vigor of middle
life.”
The rapidity which marks the growth of this
country, says the Baltimore American, is in
deed startling, when one pauses to think of it.
Looking back even ten jears great changes
may be noticed; and if worecnr to the begin
ning of the present century, tbe first half es
which has passed away, and contemplate the
progress that has been made by this country, it
would almost seem that ages must have elapsed
to bring about each extraordinary results.
Railroads and steam and telegraphs—to name
nothing else —what have thsy net accomplish
ed? Such powerfal agency in tbe hands es
an active enterprising peeple are like the
charms and spalls es magic, snbdning na’uro,
annihilating space, and serving at the potent
ministers of human will t» concentrate the ole
menfa of civilisation and es wealth and power.
The close of the present eeatury —what is that to
witness in the way es human attainment ? The
fancy that shenld depict anything like what
the reality will be wonld be regarded now as
tho flighty emanations of a visionary mind.
Progress or the Ravenstior ur Chili.—
By the Golden Gate, with dates to Oot. 6, we
have a fall confirmation es the rumor given
by ns a far- days sinee, respecting a revolution
in this rspidly growing State. Den Manuel
Montt, whom we have heretofore stated to
have been probably elected to the Presidential
office, was duly inaugurated on the 18th of
Sept. Bnt, after the election, and prior to the
inengurat'on, vix ; on ti*e Bth of Sept., the
partizan friends of Gen. Cm, the opponent
of Montt in the eleetien, produced an outbreak
at Coquimbe, and took into their hands the
goveroment of the prevines, seized tha gov
ernment fonds and forced heavy loans, took
the steamer Firefly, the property es Mr. Lam
bert, an English resident, and sent her to
Conception to apprise their friends of their
movements, and incite them to action. Gen.
Crnz their favorite, at length joined them,
proclaiming himself their leader, and mar
shaled his iorses.

Treaty with thr C*ifpiwas.— According
to the following extract from the “Minacao
tian,” it appears that Governor Ramsey, of
Minnesota, has oonciudsd a treaty with the Chip
pewas:
“ Mr. A. Kline, an express courier, bringing a
mail for the Hudson Bay Company, reached here
en Friday, in seventeen days from Fort Oercy.
He brings the gratifying intelligence that Gov
ernor Ramsey has succeed In making a most fa
vorable treaty with the Chippewas at Pembina.
The whole valley of the Red river of the North,
a tract of country eboat three hundred miles
from north to south and ons hundred and fifty
miles from east to west, has been acquired for an
annuity of ten thoaeend dollars per year, and
which entirely cesses at the end of twenty
years. The Indians receive thirty thousand
dollars upen the ratification of tho treaty to pay
their debts and divide among their half-bieed
relatives.”
The literary Gazette qiotea a story of a well
known Hebrew divine, when a member of
the Society for the Conversion es the Jews,
informed with more seal then discretion, that
the society had es late converted a large num
ber of Jews in a certain ill-reputed London
street. “Have they, indeed ?” mid the Rabbi.
“Well. lam happy to hear that tkeae men
have become Christians ; I know them very
well —they never were Jews.”
It is said of the llarqni* es Tewecend, that
when a young man, and engaged in battle, he
saw a drummer at his side killed by a eannen
ball, which scattered hie brains in every direc
tion. Hie eyes were at onto fixed en the
ghastly object, which seemed wholly te en
gross his thoughts. A superior efioer observ
ing him, supposed he was intimidated by the
sight, addressed him in a manner te eheer hie
spirits. “Oh,” said the marquis with calmness,
but severity, “I am only paszied te make out
bow any men with soon a .quantity of brains
ever came to be here.”
Niacari Falls —lt is slated that the entire
portion of the lodge upon wbieh the observa

considered to be in a very dangerous position,
as the whole structure, including the observa
tory, is liable to be swept away.
A ship with 390 Chinamen lately arrived at
Callao, when they were sold out for three

Dr. Wm. H. Tutt —Dear Sirs In the Fall of 1850,
I contracted a Cold and Cough, which finally be
came settled on my Lungs, and in a short time be
came so severe that I despaired and gave up all
hope of recovery. The beat m*dical aid was em
ployed, and various Patent medicines used with but
temporary relief. Seeing the certificates of gentle
men whom I knew, who had been cured by your
Pectoml Elixir, I sent for three bottles, and before
finishing the third one my cough left me. I have
gained flesh and strength, and now feel robust and
hearty.
I send you this, hoping jrou will make it public, so
that the afflicted may know where to prooure relief.
Please send me a half dozen more bottles, as I do
not wish to be without it. Yours, respectfully,

TABLE PILLS.
WHICH the theory of the circulation of the
blood was established, the secret springs of
vitality were then partially exposed to our view. °We
eew and understood that the food we eat was convert
ed into blood, which repaired the waste of the animal
machine; the food is fuel, which keeps at a liiehcat
the internal tires that warm and invigorate our inner
man. The blood is an electric fluid which carries this
heat to every ramification of the body, even to the ex
tremities of the hair and horny nail. Whila the blood

Food give# the body strength; Brandreth’s Pills give
blood the necessary power to throw out from itself all
impurities, thus tendering the stream of life pure and
healthy. If men were more sincere, there would be
fewer religious creeds; and if they kept closer to na*
tnre * I® W » in the management of their bodies, they
would isquiie little medicine. As men glow more
intelligent they will become wiser and happier ; even
now, their wisdom is proved by the fact, that, when
sickness assails them, they nse Brandreth’s Vegetable
Universal Pills, which soon restore them to health.
They are peculiarly adapted to this climate, and re
quire no extra care when thav are used, either in diet
or clothing. They ehould be always in the house, so
that upon the first indication of sickness they may be
used. One dote in the beginning ie more potent for
good than a dozen after the sickness ie fixed in the
system. In colds, coughs, asthma, rheumatism, cos
tiveness, fever*, and in all acute, heavy or deep-seated
pains, their effect, wt be found beyond alf praise.
Three or five will act like a charm, often curing a
dangerous malady at once, saving months of sickness
and the evi!s thereto attending. Remember, Brand

INFLAMMATORY RHEUMATISM CURED.
Bar»stown, Ky., July 10,1819.
Messrs. Sands—Gentlemen: It is my duty to com
municate facts in relation to the beneficial effects of
your Sarsaparilla. M y wife was afflicted with inlian.-
■nation and soreness of the stomach of the worst cha
racter; her limbs and chest were much swollen ; shn
had constant headache, and last spring was attacked
severely with Inflammatory Rheumatism. The best
medical aid we could obtain afforded only momenta
ry relief; and while in this situation, she heaid of the
many remarkable cures effected by the use of Sands’
Sarsaparilla, and commenced its use, which produced
instant relief, and less than six bottles entirely re
moved all the dropsical swelling and every othei in
flammatory symptom, restoring tier to perfc-C health.
I send this stalement as an act of ius ice, believing it
to be my dutyto encourage thesulfering portion of the
human family to use Sands’ Sarsaparilla, which 1 be
lieve has no parallel in the catalogue of medicine.
With feelings of lasting gratitude, I remain your
friend, Samubl P. Harger.
Read the following from
New Orleans, Nov. 13,184'J.
Messrs. Sands— Gentlemen: I take the liberty of
sending you a letter which maybe of importance to
those who are suffering as 1 have done. I received
great benefit from ynur Satsaparilla, having been
cured of a malady after suffering six years. 1 hereby
cheerfully c«*rti(y to the good effect ol your medicine,
and I hope God will reward you for all the good you
have done. A chronic cough had tormented me dav
and night, and repeated attacks of fever induced mu
to believe that l should die with consumption. Ono
dav, while suffering a violent attack of burning fever,
a friend persuaded me to try ycur incomparable medi
cine, but to tell the truth, 1 had no confidence in it. I
finally purchased a bottle, and by its nse, and the help
of God, I was restored to better health than I had en
joyed for six years. I cannot bat bless the author of
this admirable medicine
With great respect, I am, gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,

A LOVELY YOUNG LADY CURED OF CON
SUMPTION.
The fcilowing is from the pen of Wm. 11. I.evison,
Esq., the distinguished editor ot the IT S, Military and
Naval Argus, auderdate New York, January 26, 1890.
What could be more conclusive 1
“It is seldom we permit ourselves to occupy a spare
in these columns to speak in praise of any article in
the patent medicine way ; but when we see the life of
a fellow creature saved by the nse of any medicine
whatever, we consider it as our right, if not our duty,
to give a simple statement of facts, may.
in like manner, be benefited. The catWvhich has
induced as to pen this article was tbarrof a young
lady of our acquaintance, who, by frequent exposuie
to the night air, contracted a Cold which settled on
the Lungs before its ravages could be stayed (This
occurred two years ago this winter.) Various reme
dies weie used, but with very little effect or benefit.
The Cough grew worse, wi th copious expectoration,
and the sunken eye, and pale, hollow cheek, told
plainly that pulmonary disease was doing its worst t
on her delicate frame. Tlie family physician was
consulted, and although ha would not admit lo ilie
young lady that the really had the Consuuiptien, yet
he would give no encouragement as to a cure. At I
this crisisner mother was persuaded to make use ol a
bottle ol Dr. Rogers’ Compound (■lyrup of Liverwort
and Tar, and we are happy to state that she was per
fectly cured in less than three months by this medi- ijj
cine alone, after even hope was destroyed. It is use
less to comment on such a case as this, for the simple
truth will reach where polished fiction never can. 11
any doubt the authenticity of this etateraent, let them ■
call at this office.—U. 8. Military and Naval Argus,
