MSZ to) viva; FnaxxxxN liserrraTE.—A very large au dience was assembled last evening in the lecture room of the Institute Building, at the -regular monthly meeting. After the usual business, which occupied about ten minutes, the paper which had been an nounced for the evening, was read by Mr. - Emile Geyelin. Its subject was "The Jon val Turbine," with special reference to the water-works lately constructed at Montreal. Mr. Geyelin first described the condition of the former works, and the special difficul ties which were to be overcome witb regard to the formation of ice, .3to. The mode of adaptation to these exigencies of the Jonval turbhte wheel was then explained, and lastly the form,"character and dimensions of the wheels and pumps were described in detail. This part of the subject was ' iflustrated by large diagrams which were projected by means of a powerful lantern upon a screen, so as to be perfectly distinct to all present, though enough light to read by, and of course, to show all things with entire clearness, was allowed to ' remain. This means of illustration, devised and first presented in the Franklin Institute, is placed at the command of all who desire to avail themselves of it, in connection with papers read before the Institute. At the conclusion of this paper, the President, Mr. -Wm. Sellers, expressed his gratification on behalf of the Institute, for the able and in teresting treatise which had just been read. The attention and interest of the members to Mr. Gey . relin's paper, was most marked and flattering, though some annoyance was caused by those who, arriving late, found it necessary to traverse the whole room be fore suiting themselves with seats. " The report of the Resident Secretary, Professor Morton, was then read. In this mention was first made of an improved go vernor for steam engines, invented by Ifr. David Shue. In this the arms which carry -the balls, in place of being so hung as to have a radial motion as in the common ap paratus, are so arranged that their motion must be in a plane, halfway between a ra dial and a tangential direction. By this means all tendency to jam or bind on sud den change of velocity is avoided and great delicacy is secured, as was proved by actual expenment before the meeting. The apparatus for making aromatic infu sions known as the Turkish Coffee-pot; in vented by Mr. J. H. See, of Charlestown, Massachusetts, was then explained. The water heated in a closed boiler at the bot tom of the apparatus is forced, by the pres sure of tne steam generated, to ascend a central tube to the summit, where it over flows into a perforated cup (also closed) from which, after percolating the coffee which is placed in this receptacle, it runs down into the coffee-pot proper, wnich may be separated by a simple movement from the boiler, and used alone after the above operation has been completed. An ingeni ous arrangement of safety valve precludes the possibility of accident: The coffee, or other matter, treated in this case with boil ing water under pressure has all its ex tractive matter taken up in the most com plete manner possible. The drawing and model ;of M. Fletcher's Rotary Steam Engine, were exhibited, but arrived too late for description. Dr. Richardson's apparatus for produc ing intense cold and anaesthesia by ether spray was exhibited, and some water frozen in a test tube in less than a minute by its means. Various processes in manufactur ing chemistry and metallurgy, of recent publication, were then described and finally a number of interesting experiments, illus trating the chief points in the subject of spectrum analysis were exhibited by the Secretary. The important point about these demon strations is that they were effected with the lime light, and are thus brought within the reachbf many, who m the use of a large galva nic battery, such as is required for the elec tric light is unattainable. The arrangement of apparatus for these effects was also sim ple and ingenious, and the production of the Sodium band by the substitution of a glass rod for the ordinary lime cylinder, an entirely original device. The meeting ad journed at a late hour after a profitable and gatertainirig session. ODD FELLOWS' CRT rIIRATION. - Last evening the members of the Grand Lodge, Grand Encampment, and a number of sub ordinate lodges, met at the hall on North Sixth street, and formed into a procession, headed by the Liberty Cornet Band, and proceeded to the Academy of Music, where Past Grand Sire James B. Nicholson deliv ered an interesting address, having for his subject, "Odd Fellowship, its Origin, Pro gress and Destiny." Some of the Lodges appeared in full regalia. Among the distin guished members of the order present on the stage, were M. W. Grand Sire J. M. Veatch - , of Missouri; M. W. Past Grand sire Robert Craighead, of Ohio; M. W. Past Grand Sire S. R. Escaville, of Maryland; M. W. Past Grand Master Hon. Schuyler Col fax, of Indiana, and a score of Past Grand Masters .of Pennsylvania and adjoining states. HEAVY LARCENY OF BONDS.—Jas. Len ney was committed, yesterday, by Alder man Beitler, on the charge of the larceny of 0;500 in U. S. registered bonds, the pro perty of Thomas Boyle, who has been in the naval service for the past thirty-five years. The bonds were taken from a chest in the house of Mrs. Martha James, No. 1305 Lancaster avenue, where Mr. Boyle re sided. Mrs. James testified that the de fendant and "Tom Lofty" had been at her house, and the latter had gone upstairs just Dprevious to the discovery of the robbery. etective George H. Smith testified that "Lofty" had been arrested in New York with two of the stolen bonds in his posses sion, and he implicated Lenney in the theft. THE GAS INVESTIGATION. A.nother meeting of the Select Council Committee appointed to investigate the affairs of the Trustees of the Philadelphia Gas Works, was held last evening. Col. Page, the Chair man, stated that he had addressed a com munication to the President of the Board of Trustees, relative to obtaining witnesses, but had received no reply. He did not wish to interfere with the action of the Trustees, and therefore he had not summoned any witnesses for this meeting of the Commit tee. Mr. Barlow made a statement in which he denied ever having had a con tract from the Trustees of the Gas Works, or ever having been connected with them in any way: A HOKE FOR AGED METHODISTS. A meeting was held last evening at the Trinity Methodist Church, to devise means for founding a home for aged and indigent members of the Methodist Church. There was a large attendance. Amos Phillips, Esq., presided. Rev. Dr. Atwood opened with prayer, and Bishop Simpson, Rev. Jas. Neill, Rev. Dr. Bartine, and J. Walker , Jackson made addresses.
