In the summer of 187, atter my experience with the Arcadian, being somewhat sick of Jour- nalism, and not having yet determined to start amusical paper, 1 bethought me that several persons had declared at various times that I had a good voice, and that it was a pity that I did not cultivate it. So I made up my mind to be a racticed the 72,592 various expressions ofhead, face, arms, php faithfully.

A large party had assembled in one of the churches there to witness the nuptials of the niece of a preminent citizen, when it was discovered at the last mo- ment that the Registrar, who had the license in his pocket, had not arrived. At the suggestion of the officiating clergyman, the ceremony was delayed for a short time, while one of the party went in search of the errant Registrar.” His A MISERLY MONTE CRISTO. | The Enormous Wealth of William Jennings and the Great terest Many Have Therein. Tn his recent journey to England upon mat- ters concerning the Jennings estate Mr. James Usher, who makes a specialty of that sort of thing, dug up some facts which cannot but be | interesting to the few hundred thousand people who think they are heirs of a long defunct | William Jennings.

How To Bake BEANs.—Boil a quart of white beans in two or three quarts of water until they begin to crack. Put in a teaspoonful of salera- tus while they are boiling. Then drain off all the water in which they have been bofled, and put them in a pan or basin large enough tohold them and a piece of nice fat rib of corned pork, which weighs two pounds or so; score the pork and settle it in the middle of the beans. so that the fat Is a little higher than the beans; cover all with water and add two tablespoonfuls of mo- thing with it, although notes.” So I went away di cat-a on ze stage!” Utterly crestfallen, I consented to begin all over again at the very beginning—at the 1, 2,3 of the business. While I was taking lessons of Errani, Ferdi- nand Dulcken, the composer and accompanist, well known, like Coriolanus of old, for his ‘‘dan- gerous stoutness,” undertook'to give me lessons in private in the scales and solfezgi. When I would come to Errani, after I had been to Dulcken, he would say, ““Where-a did-a you get-a that horrible style-a2?” And when I came to Dulcken trom Errani he would say, “Um gotteswillen, aber das ist ein katzenjammer, das ist kein singen.” One day Errani said to me, “Look, sometimes ypu make-a ze note right, sometimes wrong-a.

How To APPLY THE Sopa REMEDY IN Burxs AND ScaLps.—It is now many yeare ago (see the London Medical Gazette, of March, 1844), that the author of this paper, while engaged in some investizations as to the qualities and effects of the alkalies in inflammations of the skin. &c., was fortunate enough to discover that a saline lotion, or saturated solution of the bicarbonated soda in either plain water orcamphorated water, if applied speedily, or as soon as possible, to a burned or scalded part, was most effectual in immediately relieying the acute burning pain, and when the burn was only superficial, or not severe, removing alf pain in the course of a very short time: having also the very great advantage of cleanliness, and if applied at once, of pre- venting the usual consequences—a painful blis- tering of the skin, separation of the epidermis, and perhaps more or less of suppurati For this purpose all that is necessary is to cut a piece of lint, or old soft rag, or even thick blotting paper, of a size sufficient to cover the burned or scalded parts, and to keep it con- stantly well wetted with the sodaic lo- tion, so as to prevent its drying. By this means it usually happens that all pain ceases in from a quarter to balf an hour, er even in much less time. When the main part of a limb, such as the hand and fore-arm or the toot and leg, has been burned, it is best, when practicable, to plunge the part at once into a jug or pail, or other convenient vessel filled with the soda lotion, and keep it there until the n Subsides; or the limb may be swathed or encircled with a surgeon's cotton bandage previously soaked in the saturated solution, and kept continually wetted with it, the relief being usually imme- diate, provided the solution be saturated and cold. What is now usually sold as bicarbonate of soda is what I have commonty used and re- commended; although this is well known to vary much in quality according to where it is manufactured—but it will be found to answer the purpose, although probably Howard's is most to be depended on. the common carbonate being too caustic. It is believed that a large proportion of medical practitioners are still unaware of the remarkable qualities of this easily applied remedy, which recommends itself for obvious reasons.— F. eg a in Pop- war Science Monthly for Ma: : se Damaged by Dry goods merchants state that a change de- cidedly marked has been wronght in the demand for dress materials since the esthetic movement has gained In favor. The effort seems to be toward obtaining odd tints with less reard as to the kind and quality of material. If a real dull and faded yeilowish red known as “mashed mulberry” can be bought in cheap cachemire, it is purchased in preference to a less ugly red in silk. Those accustomed formerly to wearing rich garments are now apparently satisfled if the colors are bat muddy, independent of the fabric. The cut of clothes hints strongly of the lowdy dresses of lish esthetes. Clumsy plaits, Short waists and uncouth sleeves are driving out the jgore becoming, neatly fitting clothes. The est ie style is not a profitable one fur merchants or modistes. Undoubtedly they will put their heads together and bring out and tempting fashions which will restore to them the revenue now reduced by the pre- ilicction for “color” whatever the material. scene of my gyrations wus Ta I. whither Debreuii and { would repair three times a week. aud there | struited aud fumed, rolled my eyes, and flung about iny arms till, if any one had seen me, they would have thought I was one of John Kelly’s sachems gone stark, staring mad.

And then Debreuil would put on a look that would have made your hair stand on end, and was no doubt traditionally diabolical enough. One day he decided that f must go through my performance to the sound of music. so he got a friend—a young lady whose name I wish I Tremembered—to be my good angel, and go up aloft in the gallery and play for me on an old tin kettle of a piano that stood there. As, the moment I opened my mouth to sing, I could not hear one note of what she played, the effect may be imagined, but cannot be described. Things went on thus for some. time till the terrible strain my voice was under bean to tell on it visibly. I began to be painfully hoarse. About this time I was introduced to Mr. James Steele Mackaye. professor of elocution, morality, and gesticulation. He told me at once that if I continued as I was doing I would soon have no voice to speak with, much less one to sing with. So I rushed to a doctor, who confirmed what Mr. Mackaye had said. but advised ine also to consult some other teacher. I went, therefore, to Errani, the first Italian teacher here, who listened to me patiently and said: “If you do not wish-a to lose-a your speaking voice, go away and for two years you forget that you have a voice.” Here was a pretty state of things! Do nothing for two years! However, I had Mackaye to fall back upon as well as the Delsarte system, and that was some- thing; anyhow. If I could not sing, I could study the art of acting, 80 1 went to Mackaye and he took me in. Now [had a big time. I learned that there are 48,267 distinct expressions of the human countenance, every one of which has a separate meaning. I made big charts to lilustrate these 48,267 distinct expressions. I also discovered that there are 8,062 positions of the hands, 7,026 positions of the arms, 2.518 positions of the legs, 6,704 positions of the trunk or “‘torse,” each of which had itsown peculiar meaning. and that under the Delsarte system I should Bot only learn the meaning of all these different positions, but be able.to reproduce any one auto- matically. While studying the Delsarte 5) I became acquainted with Mr. Charles Roberts. jr., the well-known elocutionist, who informed me vately that he did not think much of the sarte system, and that the trouble with me. was that I did not take my breath properly. I in- flated my chest and did not inflate my stomach. Until I could do this I could never sing properly, as I woula never have any “reserve air” to draw upon. When I tried to inflate my stomach I found that I failed; whereupon Mr. Roberts assured me that that was because the muscles ot my stomach were weak, and that the best thing I could do was to pound myself in that spot twice a day for fifteen minutes, till I hardened ‘up. .

It has sometimes been said that the true critic should himself be a composer. This is one of the most mistaken of premises. The | composer almost always becomes a disciple of some echool, and is unable to give an unblassed Judgment on the works of any other, or, for that matter, upon his own. We need only cite the following examples in support of our etate- ment: Spohr (a mild, symmetrical, and formal com- Poser) found fault with almost all of Beetho- ymphonies and with Weber's ‘‘Freis- Beethoven spoke lightly of Mozart, who in his turn detested Clementi.

Tn the season of hot weather in the central part of the Mississippi valley, there often come successions of days when the atmosphere is not stirred by the winds, but remains as still as the airof a cave. Despite the steady gain in the heat, the sky stays cloudless, or at most is flecked by those litht clouds that le five miles or more above the surface of the earth. All nature seems cowed beneath the fervent heat, yet there is nothing of distinct portent in earth or air. At last, towards evening there may be seen a sudden curdling of the western sky; ina few minutes the elouds gather, coming from ere, growing at once in the lurid air. In than half an hourthe forces of the storm are organized, and its dreadful advance begins. If we were just beneath the gathering clouds we should find that the air over a space a mile or so in diameter was spinning around in a great whirlpool, and while the revolving mass slowly advanced the central part moyed rapidly up- wards. Begining slowly, all the movements of the storm, the whirling action, the vertical streaming of the its onward movement, all gain speed of motion with astonishing rapidity. In a minute or two some cubic miles of air in a state of intense gyratory movement, mount ing upwards as violently as the gases over a vol- cano. To replace this strong whirling uprush there isan indrauzht from every side towards the center of the whirlwind; and as this center moves quickly forward the rush of air is strongest from behind towards the advancing hurricane. The rate at which the storm yoes -torward is very variable, though it is generally as much as forty to one hundred miles an hour; but this is not the measure of its destructive power. The rendi effect of the storm is much greater than would be given by a simple blast of.air moving at this speed. Much of this peculiar capacity for destruction may perhaps be due to the gyratory motion of the wind in the storm center, which on one side of the whirlwind adds the speed arising from its circular movement to the translatory velocity of the whiriwind itself. Some of the records tell } doors and windows wide open, remained essen- tally unharmed. It has been conjectured that this action be due to a sudden rarefaction of the air on the outaide of the building; but this cause cannot be sufficient to produce such effects, and if euch explosions occur the cause must be looked for eleewhere. After the ig once developed, it seems very quickly to acquire its ms jum of destructive power and its speed of translation. At the outset and during the period of most efficient action, the i strip of country affected is very par- tothe eve.

Atlantic, need not be conveyed all the way from the sewers, and that the ordinary soapy water from a set wash-bow! will leave such a coating upon the small drain-pipes leading from it as in time becomes an active gas-maker. The only way appears to be to keep on disinfecting and. puri- fying the inlets ot the pipes. But to discover whether the gas from either the sewers or the pipes is escaping through the other parts of the house, tue peppermint test is is ane Anounce of oil of peppermint in a pail of water is poured into the openings of the plumbing fixtures at the upper part of the house. If the smell of the peppermint escapes by a leak anywhere through the house, on any stairway or by the hot-air register of other rooms, this shows that sewer as would also escape. A direct leak from an ex] ipe will be shown, it is said, by holding a lighted candle near it. Not nearly enough of pipes are ex- posed; and it is advised to remove the wood- work or closets from around kitchen sinks, or any fixed covering that prevents free inspection of pipes, until they go underground, where they go out ofsight. And when they go out of sight there is nothing left but to find out who did the plumbing, and how much or little he knows; or to tear up the front pavement to see. Dr. For- dxce Barker visited one house in Boston, where all the rain water and other waste were soaking directly into the soil of the back |, and } where the ground was so_constantly damp that the yard was covered with a fine moss. It must be remembered in view of all this late uneasiness about drainage and sewer gas, this is becauge of the presence of very different con- ditions from those formerly prevailing in Phila- delphia. Formerly, with the old-fashioned | bathroom at the end of the long “back guild- ings,” there was only one pipe conveying waste water only to the surface gutter of the yard, whence it ran away under the back gate. and through the open gutter to the street.
