The number of deaths, up to the middie of the third week, ranged from thirty to seventy-five per day; and on October 31+t, Novem- der Ist, 2d, 34 aud 4th, the number of deaths would not have been less than seventy-five or eighty on each of these days; aed, had the same mortality occurred in New York, in proportion to she number of inhabitants, the deaths would reach he ling number of seven thousand five hun- dred deaths perdiem. The only means of ascer- teining with any degree of certainty the number of deaths, was to go to the graveyard, and count the pun.ber of new filled graves, which ry easily done, a8 about sx 'y Dodies were laid ia @ row, and tooked precisely like flower beds laid out in a gar- den. ldo not believe thet there was ever such & sight seen before, as the graveyards of our eity rreeent, 80 many newly made graves in Ope spot— bo less than ope thouséue one hundred in the short epace of & month.

Epitor :— Having been favored, in com Mr. Ames, of Mr. Merrick, President of the gas city, with a view of Mr. Paine’s ratus for pro- ducing light from water, and of witnessing the whole machinery in operation, as well as operating it myself, I yield to the advice of friends in giving publicity to my ebservations. Although | have been more or less conversant with chemistry and chemical experiments for the past eight years, yet let it not be supposed that I consider myself deeply learned in these matters, because I venture to write upon & subject so full of mysteries and a Tent contradictions as Mr, Paine’s light. This article is not intended exclusively for the scientific, but for the general reader ; and | shal! endeavor to jive such explanations of the pparatus used by r. Paine that all can understand it. Mr. Paine claims, among other thiags, to have discovered a means of increasing the power of a Megoeto-electric machine to such an extent that he can decompose water rapidly with it; that he, can take a jar of water, and, by means of the elec- tricity induced by this machine, can convert the whole of it into hydrogen gas, without the produc- tion of any oxygen whatever. He claims, also, that by changing the ¢lectrical poles, he can con- vert the whole of the jar of water into oxygen gas, without producing any hydrogen. That, after pro- ducing the hydrogen as above, and passing it through spirits of turpentine, it becomes catalized, and thea will burn with a clear and brilliant flame; and this, too, without any loss to the turpentine by the peesage of the sas through it. In regard to light, inde,endent of the other applications of the power, Mr. Paine claims to have discovered a Mmeane of producing it from water, by electricity, at @ cost infinitely less than any mode now in operation. The above are startling propositions—can Mr. Peme demonstrate them by practical experiments ? The object of this articie 18 10 describe the appara- tus used, and the result of the experiments, as they appeared to me. I shall not advance or defend any y with Mr. pringfield, and compiny of that theory. Before giving the resultof the experiments, let me describe the apparatus. This consists of four pieces, all placed upon a pine table or shelf, and in no way connected with medio, Capos First—A common Magneto-Electric machine, consisting of two permanent horse-shoe magnets about twelve inches long. These were placed horizontally on a mahogany frame, about four inches apart, one being placed above the other. Between the ends of these magnets were a pair of helices, and these so attached to a wheel above, that they could be set into a rapid rotary motion. The peculiar construction of these belices, fron which the immensely increased pov er is said to be obtained, I will hereafter describe. Second —A large open mouth glass jar, cipaole of holding twelve quarts. This wasa litle more than hall filled with water. (We tasted the water to satisfy ourselves that it was water.) Withia this jer Was placed a common bell-glass, open at the bottcm, and reaching within four inchee of the | bettoan of the large jar. The top of the bell-glase wes clored tightly with a brass cap, which ex- tended over it, 20 8 to rest upon the sides of the outer jer. Passing through the cap of the bell- glese were two wires, which extended down nearly to the botiom of the bell-gluse, and these termi- ” a cirenlar metalic box, one anda half Rete, . inches long, ane ou. 2c im. dizmeter. box was hollow, and perforated w.~' S™all holes in the upper pert. ’ The electrodes, or points of connection | between the poles, were in this box. ‘The water in the jer end bell glass reached some six inches above the electrodes. “ Third.—A quart glass jar, half filled with spirits Of turpentine. A tube of gaspipe passed from the top of the bell-glass (above mentioned) and into this jar of turpentine, terminating at the bottom of | the turpentine. From the cap which covered the jar of turpentine, another tube or gas-pipe passed to a jet or burner, about twelve inches from the jar. | Fourth.—-A common glass (umbler half filled | with water. The above comprised all the apparatus used by | Mr. Paine, with the exception of three wires, or rather flat stripe of copper, by which he connected the magneto-electnie machine with the jar of water. The wires were connected in the following pecu- | liar manner :— The end of one wire was screwed to the negative pole of the magnetic machine ; and the other end, to the first of the wiles coming up from the electrodes through the top of the bell- giasc. A second wire was screwed to the positive pole of the magnetic machine, with the other end terminating in thé glees of water above mentioned The third wire was screwed to the beil-glass, or | rather the eecond Wire, which passes through it from the electrodes within, and terminatiog in the rame gies of water, although the wires in the glass did Dot touch each other. have epoken of these as Witee—they were not wir merely thin stripe of copper, having the appearance of being relied out from wire Now for the operation of the machinery. Mr. Paine commenced turning the wheel in the mag- neto electric machine, and we all looked to ree the erise from the electrodes in the jar of water— o gas appeored. Mr. Paine was surprised—we ail surprieed. At length Mr Ames discovered that one of the wires, or copper ribands, hed been | detached, or had not been serewed on to the wire at the top of the bell-glars, This being corrected, Mr Peine egein com menced turoing the machine, antly large bubbles of gas arose from the electrodes, and filed the jar in less than a miaute After taking out @ stepper from the bell-glass, and ellowing seve ral jars full of gas to escape, in order to expel the common air and prevent an explosion, these were stopped, amd the gas forced on through the gas pipe into the turpentine, and through this to the jetcr burner. Between the jar of water where the gas enerated, and the jar of tur- pentine, a ftinued f m the p This wes lighted and proved to be hydregen gas. The flame, in front of a window, was so pale that it could not be perceived. We could see it by placing a dark bedy behind it. While this was boroing, the gas was ced elong through the turpentine to the other burn A fleme was applied to this, and a bril- ient light wes shown ' livre were two tomes burning ot the same time, from the same gee—the firet, before passing through the turpentine, borming with a pale, almost imper- | ceptible lght—the second, after passing through the urpentine, boring With a light superior to y eee that | eaw before, When t magoetic machine woe stopped, not a bubble of would sppear in the jar, aod the lights went out.

He said that unless this was done, both hydrogen and oxy- fc" would be generated in the bell glass; but that this means, he only obtained the hydrogen. ‘here appeared to be no oxygen generated by the operation. Asto the amount of turpentine consumed by passing the gas through it, it was impossible for us to Scone in the pagers ap “a engage ener sting burni I. Paine stated that the was not carboniz=d, but was catalized in passing through the turpeatine, and there was no loss to ihe hed apeseyd by ah Bro standing in Wor- cester, a few ‘8 previous to our visit, hased ata store, a ccanteg ot turpentine, measur- ing it accurately; which they took to Mr. Puaine’s eetablishment, and passed the ges, produced by jor seve: three sets of ranges, through it tor ral hours, lighting the whole of Mr. Paine’s ee" house. The tur- pentine was again measured at the close, and found to have lost but a tea-spoonful; only as much as would be lost by eyaporation and by turning it from one veesel into another. A certificate was pub- lished to that effect. The helices Mr, Paine claims that by an im- proved construction of the helices in the magneto- electric machine, he has increased the electrical power of that instrument eho say ten thou- sand fold, sufficient to produce wonderful re- sults above described. The peculiar construction of these helices were shown to us, and explained. Before describing them, | should make a remark reepecting the ordioary helices of a magneto-elec- tric machine. It is well knowa that the power of an electro-magnetic machine, with the ordinary helices, up to a certain point, depends upon the amount of surface of insulated copper wire in the helices. It is only upon the surface of this wire, that the electricity can be conducted. Mr. Paine’s helices difier from the above in this that the wire which forms the coil is made hollow, being formed by twisting or winding very thin strips of copper, forming it intoa tube. This wire or tube is then covered with India rubber, or gutta rcha to insulate it; and then filled with water. ‘his water within the wire, forming the helices, is 80 arranged asto be brought ia contact with the current of electricity, induced from the magnets, in the same manner as the wire that surrounds it. Faraday has established the fact, that a very small quantity of water is capable of containing a vast amount of electricity, (1 think he says t single drop of water will contain as much electricity as a thunder cloud) eufficient to burst off the gable end of a house. Just in proportion as the power of the helices is increased to induce or receive the elee- trie current, so is ite power increased to give it off. Now leok at Mr. Paine’s arrangement. In the first place, he has a double surface of wire exposed in the helices—an outer and an inner surface. In the next place, he has half a pint of water revolv- ing in bis helices—a substance ben ya of contain- ing a thousand—yes, ten thousand fold more elec- tneity, than the same bulk of copper wire. The bove description of Mr. Paine’s helices, I have given with bis ful) consent and apprebation. To this improvement in the construction of the helices, Mr. Paine claims to have increased the power of the megneto-electric machine, so ae to e the wonderful results above described. periments which we saw, and in which | think we could not be mistaken, would go to show the claim of Mr, Paine to be well founded. l have here given a plain statement of facts, as they were shown end explained tous; aod leave ac one to draw his own conclusions. Whether T ‘aine can apply his improvement practically e eatie, talons to light a erty —whether discovered ‘‘perpetual motion”—whether he has discovered a substitute for all other motive power, and for all other heat; as well as many other things which are claimed for bim—are ques- tions, involving more difficulties, than I feel, at present, competent to sotve I am far from deny- ing, however, that he can do all these things.

The fellowing is a copy of the petition to Con- gteee, for aid to make an aerial voyage round the world, which wus presented to the U. S. Senate, by Mr. Douglaes, on the 30h ult. To the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States in Congress assembled:—The tition of the undersigned respectfully sheweth — That he is a native and citizen of the city of Lan- caster, Pennsylvania, and that tor a period of six- teen years he has devoted all his time, study and labor, to the art and science of aeronautics; that during that time he has made nearly one hundred aerial voyager, in different parts of the United States ; that he has repeatedly exploded his ba'oon aten elevation of two miles in the air, and has descended uninjured, protected by the atmosphere alone. That he is the author of a work upon the Histo- ty and Practice of Aeronautics, the only complete work upon the subject extant, and of which ano- ther edition boutto be published in this country, end in England; and that the work has met with the moet flattering notices in the London Athene- | um, the Londum Despatch, the London Literary Jownal, the London Historie Record, and other exteblished European journals, as well as in the leading journals of our own ceuntry. That the result of these aerial voyages of the uncrsigned, as well as from a most diligent search, inwe the facts elicited from the expenence of others, have clearly demonstrated, that ia our jatitudes, there is, in the elevated regions of the oir, a perpetual current of the atmosphere, from the weet toward the east; aad that by means of it, an terial a round the globe, may be made, ia a comperatively short period of time ‘That your petitioner would most respectfully re- mind your honorable bodies,that all aerial voyager peretofore have been the result of private enter- nd at en outlay of a very small amount of morey, ond that he is well convinced that lon before the same amount ef money, of labor and o! telent, which has been devoted to the art of navi gating the seus, shall have been bestowed upon its ister art, of navigating the air, it shall be brought to an iaconcetvable degree of greater perfe@uon and usefulnese, both in peace and in war. — He would further respectfally remind Congress of the puny vessels of 50 and 110 tons burthen, with which Columbus discovered the new world, when compared with the monster leviathan three- deckere of 3,000 and 4,000 tons, which pow move with such) speed and safety over the mighty deep. Great improvements and discoveries will yet be made at a comparatively trifling expense, but they ere be) oed his means, and hereepectfully but earn- estly calls for @ consideration and aid to his pro- ject, which he will speedily demonstrate to the peo- ple of this country and to the world. He respectfully eke, that Congress may be pleased to make an app oe ationjof $20,000, to be expended in the city of Washington, under the di- rection of the Secretary of War, the Secretary of the Navy, the President of the Smithsonian Lns' tute, or the Superintendent of the Astronomical Observetory. With this sum he will construct a balloon of such material as will retain hydrogen gas for weeks and months, of a diameter of 100 feet, which will {give it an elevating power of sixteen tons. With this balloon he wil make numerous end repeated topical ascensions from the city of Washington; end ae properly secared to the ih, will hover over the navy yard, arsenal, cap- itol, or President's house, or any other point out of reach of shot orshell, and from thence discharge imitation destructive explorive missiles, showing his ability to destroy any fleet, fort, or army Whion ‘moy be beneath him. He will demonstrate that eny hostile fleet which may anchor im the waters of ihe United States can thus be destroyed He propoees farther, to make numerou cenvione to verify his previous observatt as to the existance of the aerial current, at all times blowing from west to east. After having satisfied the ecmmunity upon these pointe, of which he is already convinced, he will convey the balloon to St. le uis, Missouri, there necend, and crosa the Alleghany mountains, end descend near the sea coust of the United States, Upon the demon tion of there fasts, which he knows he can do, he will meke hie ascension from the city of New York, with one of Freneis's life beets os a car, supplied wih water,"provisic and ex or eight attendants (havieg volunteers already) and will make an atrial voyege across the Atiantic to Europe, and he trusts, should it please Providence to bestow nyen him health and life, to stand before you, in | your halls, a living evidence of having made the first eerial voyege round the globe The emount of money aeked for thie great and | wendertol preject is so amall, when the ends to be socemplithed are considered, end when compared vith the in mense + xpenditures of the coveramem for the navy, the ety, and other purposes. that the petmener hembly end confidently flat ora him- eel hat it ey, and will, meet with a favorable 1 pFidE THON lu cencinsion, your petitioner will refer with price end pleasuie, to the fact, that Fulton, the dis- around the one. your petitioner wil] humbly pray.

County Banx Rosasry.—The Coop- of the late door. m by means of some mechanical power, probably a screw and irs. a email hola +, bored into the hee tom of t joor, apparent! @ three quarter inc! augur. Several small holes were bored into the floor immediately beneath, as if for the purpose of fastet the instrument which contained the screw. By this means the door was drawn suffi- ciently out to admit of the entrance of a lever, which, from the appearance of the wood work at was inserted in two or three different places above. The door was a heavy iron one, of approved censtruction, and the manner in which it was riddled showed the ingenuity and power which were applied. It was evidently the work of an ex- rienced and scientific burglar. This heavy rob- does not in the least affect the stability of the bank, or the value of its notes. The capital steck hae not been reached, and there are yet several thousand dollars surplus. There were numerous articles of value in the vault of the bank at the time of the robbery, belonging to individuals, which, we are happy to say, were untouchéd. There'were also between $13,000 and $14,000 of the bills of the bank, which wer~ allowed to re- main. They were feund on Monday morning, by the teller, scattered upon the floor of the vault. No one has elept in the bank for some twelve years past, ner has it been the practice to enter it on Sua- days. All the usual precautions, however, had been taken by the teller, and no blame attaches to that officer. the CITY TRADE REPORT. New Yon, Jan. 4—6 P.M.
