Pi: A Til in Tin: WAV 11. A fatal eae of poisoning by ca'di ptonts which has just occurred in l-iri, nrty serve a a warning to those families in which children are allowed l' lik after themselves for hours to g'ther. It nviy l)C assumed that very few cldidien under the age, say, often or twelve, have any idea that pcach stoiies or each blossoms are danger ous. They have been shown tho dead . 1y nightshade, and probably the wild hemlock, 'and have a canny dread of Ihein ; but nurse maid are not neatly ho fond of iKjinting out the peach tree as an olivet of horror and aversion. The victim of the recent accident in against the attractions of the peach, j He had dcyeh,,ed, at the lender age of five and a halt, the faculty ot reason- , . . . . , J ,, ID 'J OU indUCtlVC principles. ar.U lie Saw I i:o reason to doubt that as chorrv nnd ! ------ -- - anrieot stones nont.iir.ed eatable ker . - - nals the rohler fruit had at least an equally desirable treasure in its inmost recesses. Accordingly he secreted the flnnes of a number of peaches which had been sent to his mother from the country, and possessing himself of a hammer when left alone broke them open industriously, and then set to upon a solid feast to which he did hasty but complete justice. The taste of the kernels was not perhaps on a par with (the expectations previously entertained, but, it woul 1 be ridiculous to go through the severe labor of crack ing sin-h bard shells without entering into the f. uilion of the labor when once finished. ' So the unlucky child was found by; his parent on her return ; writhing jn the grievous agonies pio duced by prussic or hydrocyanic acid. The arrival and dibits of the doctor were vair., and another item had to be added to the long list of "deaths by imprudence." It is as well, now that the seanoh of wall fruit has arrived, to explain j!iat extent of poisoning pro perties is possessed by the peach-stone. The wi iters on toxicology state that an ounce of the kernels contains about one grain of pure hydrocyanic acid, and it is known that one grain of the poison will almost to a certainly kill any adult person. Two-thirds of a grain has very often been fatal, and, indeed, may bo regarded as a fatal dose for a child. The Original of the Cultivated Potato.- A potato plant (Solatium !'', ulU ri) growing in great abundance in northern New .Mexico is supposed to be the original of our cultivated po tato. 4" This ntttivc plant forms one of the chief articles of diet of the Xava- 5'l'3 'uy me small tllbers with Whatever implements ! .i . . r. ' thev Can obtain, off .en nemo- n c'rt,r ! . , , v Ul.l, sinootli .ieee of wool with a wedire shnped cud. The plant grows on low, rich spots, and by spring the earth is turned up in every conceivable, direc tion in the search for the potatos, The latter arc from ofo-half to three quart ers of an inch in diameter, nnd of good flavor tasting somewhat like boiled chestnuts. The Xavnjo Indians con sume such large quantities at a time as to cause griping pains, and as a remedy take at the same meal a quanti ty of earthy matter containing mag nesia, which relieves tha stomach. Some years ngo a quantity of the tubers of this species oi potato were received r.nd distributed by the Department of Agriculture. Reports from various localities stated that, in many cases, these improved under cultivation, ami increased largely in size. How to Make Good Pickles.

A hole through the coin, however, conciemna it a lact, we believe, not srencrallv known. The low vnlnn rf i silver prevents any such proceedings j as in the case of gold, as the amount that could be saiely abstracted will not pa' for the trouble of doing it. Consequently all silver counterfeits are true imitations, and there is hardly a date of a dollar, half dollar or quarter which has not been copied with re markable accuracy. The counterfeiter either makes a mould in plaster from the real coin, and casts from it, or he stamps his imitation in dies. As this last process is the same as in use i;i the mints, the counterfeits thus pro duced are more difficult to detect, be cause, besides being more accurately finished, the compression which the alloy receives brings it nearer to stand ard weight. A large number of coun terfeit silver coins are made chiefly of type metal, A very dangerous half dollar is composed of silver, copper and zinc, and is worth about twenty seven cents, it is from sevr-n tn tr-n grains too light Spuioushalf dollars have appeared which constantly de- ccive oatiK tellers and other experts because they are of full weight, They are made of a compound similar to (ierman silver, and are so well plated with genuine silver that the acid does not eiTect them. They are, however, too thick, and the guage, as usual where the balance fails, shows the fact. Counterfeits of the quarter dollar, though very plenty, are less dangerous than those of larger piece. They are composed of antimony, tin and lead, and they are both too thick and too light, although they have a good ring. A peculiar composition has been employed, to which powder ed glass is added to give a clear so-ind ; but this is but a clumsy ex pedient, as the coin is far below pro per weigiit, a fact easiby appreciable by mere handling. Scientific Ameri can. How Gas was First Used Great was the amazement of all England when, at the close of the last certurv Wui. Murdock discovered the use of combustible air or gas. So little was the invention understood and believed in by those who had not Been it in ue, that even great and wise men laughed at the idea. "How could there be light without a wick ?" said a member of 'Parliament when the subject was brought before the House. Even Sir Humphry Davy ridiculed the ideaot lighting towns by gas, and asked one of the proprietors if they meant the dome of St. Paul's for a gas meter. Sir Walter Scott, too, made himself merry over the idea of illuminating London by smoke, though he was ylad enough, not so long after, to make" his own house at Abbotsford light and cheerfnl on wintry nights by the use of that very smoke. When the house of Commons was lighted by gas, the architect imagined that the gas ran on Are through the pijo3, and thereforelhe insisted on their being placed several inches from the wall for fear of the building taking lire. The members might be observed curefnlly touching the pipes with their gloved hands, and wondering why they did not feel warm. Tlie first shop lighted in London by the new method was Mr. Askerman's on the Strand, in 1810; and one ladv of rank was so delighted with the brilliancy of the gas lamp on the counter, that she asked to be allowed to take it home in her carrae. A Wonderful Flower At the home of Thurlow Weed, in New York city, there is now or was a few days ago in bloom one of the rarest flowers in the world, the Dove Flower, or Spirit-.is Sanctus, of Brazil. The flower is rare, even in its native land. The stalk is about forty inches in height, with a leaf like that of a tube roee. On the top are four of the flowers, the lowest of which is in full bloom, the three others in bud. The flower in bloom is small, and of the most exquisite cream color. Its per fume is delicious. It is similar in shape and size to the Madeira nut opened, but still joined. One half of the flower remains upright, and the other half lies down exactly at right angles to its mate, exposing in the erect part a most dainty floral grotto, in which rests, apparently upon a perch, a petal shaped like a dove about to fly, with outstreached head and ex tended wings. Tbe dove is cream white, with the exce ption of the upper extremities of the winss, which are beautifully speckled. The perfection and life-like appearance of the dove are incredible to persons who have not seen the flower. In the land of its growth the Spiritus Sanctus is held in great esteem, and among the super stitious, in absolute veneration. Many legends are told about the "sacred flower," Mr. Weed received the plant ek before last. awu" monin ago, ami it bloomed Superstitions About Beans rythtigoras forbade his disciples ' U cat beans, believing that at the crea tion man was made from tlicm, while i-iiC'ian intro-aifp a r.h;i savin, tUat to 0" and "o I C cmens AKxandrinus, and after him Theophrastus, wM of the opinion that easing beans caused steritil-tv wiiiu Cicero sngests that they are cnemios tO traiKJUilitV of mr A n00 : !
