Improved Safety latnp.—Mr. J. B. - Fletcher of Bromsgrove, England, has matte an improvement on e.the Davy" well worthy the attention of the philan thropist and the curious in science. A full descrip tion of the article is given in the Worcester Chroni cle, from which we learn Mr. Fletcher was first stim ulated to direct his inventive capacity in this line of research by considering that the feeble light obtain ed from "The Davy" id the principal cause of the reluctance of miners to use it, and is sometimes an absolute bar to its employment. 'lndeed in many places its use is confined to the ascertaining the pre sence or abseace ormfliainiatory 'gas and is seldom or never brought into operation to light flu miner at his dangerous toils. It has, moreov er , . been es tablished that if Dayy's lamp be carried quickly along or exposed to the current of air, the flame is driven through the wire gauze sufficiently to cause an ex plosion, and danger also arias from the rapidity with which, when exposed to inflammable gas, the upper part becomes red hot and falls to pieces. In that of Mr. Fletcher these and other defects are obviated.— Instead of a feeble light, there is the-full power of a bull's eye and reflector. It islaholly protected from the effects of a lateral current of air, nor is there a possibility of any part of itming heated. By an ingenious contrivance , a erful light is affond tali, el so long as pure air is &dun , but on the admis sion of inflammable gas, the flame of the lamp is im mediately extinguished, and thus the evil furnishes' its own remedy. It somewhat resembles in ingenui ty of contrivance, the breathing apparatus which na ture has provided in animal hie, by means" of which, though we arc allowed freely to respire pure air, yet on the presense of noxious gases, the admission of the impure Medium is prevented. Another recom mendation of Mr. Fletcher's lamp is the cheapness of its construction, which exceeds that' of any . other safety lamp now in use. With such a lamp as this at hand affording a cheap, powerful, and, above all, a perfecty safe light it is anxiously to be desired that the miners, too often nuMered reckless It .their constant exposure to danger, Willrio longer use naked candles. Mr. Fletcher's experiment were originally set on foot in samt-iire-damp-pits in Lancaster, where the idea which he has now so ably developed,fiest oc curred to hull. If those destroyers of humaniffe, falsely designated heroreandeonquerors, receive their treed of aliplause, what triumph shall be reserved for the friend of science, whose object is not to destroy but o save. We hope soon to see this admirable improvement brought to our country, as their necessity is every 44 becoming more apparent in our, mining opera tion& The Peruveyleanian Rebuked—At the time when 'the recognition of the Hopkins' house by the Senate burst upon our community like a thunder-clap, the PennsylVanhin, through one of its letter writers, Was pleased to vituperate the conduct of Mr. Fraley in reference to his concave, Mr. Miller, and stigmatize by the name of "malignant abuse" his appeal to the virtue and patriotism of the Senate. Mr. Miller has inconsequence addressed a letter to the Editor, the following extract from which rebukes in,a dignified manner the ahanieful system of the loco press, which Mae a choice collection of "epithets and adjectives" thrown promiscuously in a box, and when one-is needed, it is drawn out, lottery fashion, and append ed to the necessary noun proper : "While I am thus doing justice to others, I can not and aught nut, omit extending it to my much re spected Colleague Mr. Fraley. In one of your num bers dated a few days past, that gentlemen is charg ed with having loaded me with "malignant abuse." (Z think I quote correctly.) Your informant eertain ly did not hear with my ears—for I heard nothing like abuse. Hid appeal to me was earnest, animat ed and impassioned, nothing more--and my reply was animated,and earnest as his appeal, and my Words Were certainly ndt dipped, in honey dew : but neither that gentleman nor myself did, on that ol• any other occasion descend toany thing bearing the most distant resemblance to abuse."

The Globe likewise states that the real losses by collectors unde; all previous administrations amounted to about ene million, of which only $60,000 was under the glorious administration; that four milli'ons have been lost by upwards of 2330 disbursing officers who are defaul ters, of which not forty have been under his admin . n, nor over $lOO,OOO in amount.
