This is not so: it is the vapor either in the lamp or | can, which rising and mixing with the air, eomes in contact with the flame, fire to the i Scattering If you take alcohol, or an alcoholic liquid, and put it in an open vessel. where the vapors cannot collect, and light it, it will burn quietly until the liquid contains so little aleohol that it will sustain flame no longer. The burning of brandy is an instance of this trath, familiar tomany. It is evident then that the fluid does not explode. This, in part, explains why, in the face of such dreadful warnings, many per- sons still persist in athp§ lamps while lighted ; x ringing the liquid in contact with the light, that no bad consequences will ensue, and (as they think) with experience to recip een its truth—for have they not filled lighted lamps ten, twenty, or one hundred times before, without accident? Let all who will still continue the practice remember that though they may for years have done so without injury and might for many future ones it is because this vapor has never communicated with the flame, but has heen dissipated in the surround- ing wr. that they have done so with impunity. et them also remember, that it may com- that no amount of knowledge. no amount of presence of mind, can save them from a fearful death, or at least a and exploding sets it shouk. : | severe injury If gasis milky orcloudy, smokes in a lamp newly trimmed and cleaned, or burns with a pale flame, that gives but little light do not use it. In the first case, there is either too much eamphene, or the alcohol is not of proper strength—in the second, it has been kept tuo ' long—and in the third the proportion of alcohol is too great. In the latter case, in addition to giving less light, it burns away more uickly. The lamps should be prs | and filled ont in ys time, to avoid the dangers before nam’ cap when the lamp is not in use, to kegp the tops of the wicks clean, and to prevent the | | evaporation of the burning fluid through them. These few cautions and directions being ob- served, there is no greater danger in using a camphene or spirit gas lamp, than there is in using an oil lamp. Aroot.—To go afoot | has ever been deemed the extreme of poverty or folly, and has accord- , ingly been marked with deserved contempt. We ourselves have drawn ay on the scorn due to such a proceeding. e have had it darted at usin glances, shot in taunts, or poured down in condolences. The calm pity expressed in the face of the Arab when he pranced by us on his steed of the desert, we looked upon as natural to the man and his circumstances, and bore it. We could excuse even the scorn with which an Andalusian caballero, mounted on his elub-tailed extiro, regarded us, as we trudged along the wretched roads of his country, but at times we have suffered beyond endurance. We have been looked down upon by a fat priest on a sore-backed, spavined mule. whieh could not limp as many miles in two hours as we could stride in one; and we have more than once been offered a lift by a costermonger in a denkey- cart. Once. too, on entering a Spanish rente, after having done a journey afoot, of which we were rather proud, we heard our hostess explain, apologetically, to a neighbor, that the English did not walk because they could not afford to ride, but that it was a whim, a fancy of theirs —nn capricho, una fantasia. But the bitter- est sense of degradation, from this perversity of ours, was laid upon us in Portuy We were ina river steamer going to Alhandra, the ter- mination of the lines. Among the passengers was a Portu; licky, and adorned on lip and chin with a very sparce crop of hair, as countesses in Portugal are apt to The bustle of embarcation and the heat had produced a puffness and suffusion which kept fan and kerchief in constant action; and we, in pity for her condition, made a little seat and awnin; cloaks on the deck. A gracious bow and a wave of the fan when she left the vessel, showed that we had thereby won consideration. On the shore was a vehicle which made us stare. It was an antiquated. cumbrous, dust-cov- | ered machine, built somewhat after the fashion of acoach ; and to it was attached—what think ou? mules? asses? No! bullocks' ullucks, and actually yoked, too, as they would have been toa plow. Into this our countess stumbled with an evident sense of dignity and | grandeur. The driver smote with his goad— the oxen woke up and began to creep along —the wheels auakets and on went the vehicle majestically slow. Of course, we soon ont- visi ayy it, but ever and anon, as we Load ned to look at something on the road, it ial pass and repass us, and were then conscious that a glance of ineffable disdain was darted on us trom within, and that the fair inmate, swelling with a consciousness of superiority, was indig- nantly regretting that she had ever condescend- ed to notice, or be noticed by, a fellow who could journey afoot.—Blackwood'’s Magazine. ——+2e- Woman 1x THe Garvex.—Much in these days are said about the sphere of woman. Of this vexed question we have nothing now to say. The culture of the soil, the body and soul are our themes. Rich soi healthy bodies, pure, cultivated souls, these are what we are aiming at. And to this end we recommend that every country woman have a garden that she keeps and dresses with her own hand, or at least that she supervises and manages. The culture of strawberr es, blackberries, gooseber- ries, currants and garden vegetables are as de- lightful and profitable as anything in which woman can engage. She may sprinkle her gar- den with flowers. All the better for that. snowball in this corner, a rose in that, a dablia bed there and a moss border here will not be out of place. Only let the substantial and use- ful constitute the chief part. A touch of the ornate like a ribbon on a good bonnet, is not in the least objectionable. In all the schools the’ girls study botany.

Come, good woman, study your health, your usefulness your happiness, and your children’s also. why Boox Fanwixne.—One of the most practical eases of “ Book Farming’’ that has come to our knowledge is told us by a friend: A young Maryland farmer, a reading man, got hold of Liebig’s great work on agricultural chemistry soon after its publication. and be- came convinced of the propriety, notwithstand- ing that his farm was limestone land, of ma- king a fresh application of that fertilizer. ter a good deal of hesitation on the part of his father, the lime was tried, and after being tried, eontinued. The improvement in consequence has been such, that where five and six barrels of corn was the outside, as much as fifteen per acre have been made, and other crops in pro- portion. A debt, the interest of which they could scarcely keep down before, has been paid off, and they have bought field after field with ready money from neighbors whe could not af- ford to buy Tina or agricultural books. oe Navan —The Philadelphia Of yesterday re t the U. 8. sloo Ewat danaiowe, from ‘abica, atanchor of y Island. e ends of tubes should be covered with a | for her with the bags and | Ay? } It is health- | put | ly | Af | se countess, fat vily, rather gar- | | tract price shall be charged PROPOSALS FOR STATIONERY.
