Each brick ■laving exerted upon it a mechanical Jjbree of at least one hundred tons, and ||he air being entirely displaced, it be* worries nearly as dense and smooth as ■olished marble. Clay cannot always He dried uniformly. The surface of Humps will be quite dry while the ■renter is damp. It must, however, be dried sufficient* Hy to grind in the roller and sift through »lte screen. During this operation it pveomes completely mixed, and enters it he machine in a line, uniform, dampen led powder. The machine is so oon [ structed that one is enabled to regu late the amount of clay in a moment, should more or less be required as it varies from damp to dry. The ma chine forms six bricks at each revolu tion, and makes seven or eight revolu tions per minute, turning out 2,500 to 2,800 bricks per hour. The machine, pulverizers and screens, complete, cost $3,200 and weigh over 20 tons. It is all of iron, single, massive and compact, and moves with as much accuracy as an ordinary steam engine. The bricks are more smooth, true and uniform in diape than pressed bricks. Heavy, strong, very dense, having no cavities, they absorb little moisture and with stand the frosts of the severest cli mates. — So'. Jour, k Courier.

A gentleman talking to another on the subject of marriage, made the fol lowing observation: “I first saw my wife in a storm: carried her to a ball in a storm: married in a storm: lived in a storm all her life; but thank heav en, I buried her in pleasant weather. “Where is the hoe, Sambo?”— “ Wid de rake massa.” “ Well, where is the rake?” Why, wid de hoe!” — “Well, well—where are they both?” “Why, both togedder, inassa—you 'pears to be berry ’ticular dis morning!
