is not the growth of a day ; neither can it be expected
that the result, ilmed at will be achieved without"
great labor and expense; but the endeavor will be to
make the path to science lessthonty to the young me

formidable and forbidding exterior under which it le
presented. from undertaking an investigation which
he might easily master. .

HOW ♦ IBIAX FEELS WITH HIS
HEAD OFF.
Some of the most eminent physicians of
the present day have lately been argumenting
the very. curious question as to whether a
man feels after his head is off. And this in
quiry is considered by its conductors to be of
more than physiological inter t, because it
involves a refined principle off inanity with
regard to the punishment of death by the
guillotine.
It is considered on all sides that the body
does not feel one instant after decapitation :
for the brain being the seat of sensation to
the whole frame, through the medium of the
spinal marrow, every part of the body beneath
the joint at which the latter may be divided,
must be deprived of feeling.—But it by no
means follows .that the head is deprived of
sensation immediately after decapitation, nor
that it may not retain its consciousness, and
like the head of the Irish Knight who was
killed by Saladin in the Holy war, get up and
.declare that it ivas never cut off by so sweet
a Scimitar before—nor like that of the assas
sin Legare, swear roundly at the executioner
for not keeping a keener axe ; but it is quite
possible that it may be troubled with very
serious re fl ections upon the irrevocability o f'
its fate, and the awfulness of its deprivation.
In support of this unpleasant thebry,
many facts are-adduced with grave vouchers
for their authenticity. Among others, is the
unfortunate Queen of Scots, whose lips con
rinued- to move in prayer for at least a quar
ter of an hour , after the executioner bad per
'formed his duties. Windt states that having
put his mouth- to the ear of a decapitated
-criminal's head, and called him by name, the
eye turned to the side from whence the voice
came ; anthills fact is attested by Pontenello,
Mogore, Guillotine, blanche, and Aldini. On
the word murder being called, in the case o
a criminal executed for that crime at Cob-
lentz, the half-closed eyes opened wide with
an expression of reproach on those who stood
around.
This is recorded in the Medical Gazette for
4april last ; but whether it be believed or not,
We see nothing either in theory or recorded
fact,. to lessen the physiological possibility of
conscience after decapitation. In diseases
and dislocations of the spinal marrow, the
mind remains in full possession of its facul
ties, although all the tower limbs are utterly
devoid of feeling ; and at what point of sepa
ration are we justified in saying that the mind
must lose its rational powers I If the brain
retain the images of visions, and the form of
touch, long after the objects which create
them are withdrawn, why may we not sup
pose that it retains them,after a sudden ope
ration of the axe or guillotine? Like the
thing of an - amputated leg which feels its
toes for days,, and even weeks after the ope-
ration, it may remain in imaginary posession
of all itsvorporeal members, until the cur
tains of oblivion are gathered around its
fading_vision, and it sinks to repose in the
chamber of death.
INTERESTING FACTS-MINTING
Common, or letter press printing, such
as books, newspapers, &c., is carried on by a
large number of tools or types, every one , of
which costs money, labor and ingenuity to
fit for use. There are about two or three
men in the United States who can make the
matrice in which types are cast, so peculiar,
completely proportioned, uniform and exact,
must the work be done; the letters are made
principally of lead, mixed with other metals,
In Oder to harden it sufficiently when cool.
For every sized and differently shaped type
new matrices have to be made, and each
with the same exactness, or the font is defec
tive. In Roman each letter is made three times
—large and small capitals lower case, points,
figures and other indispensable characters.—
To give some idea of the number-of charac
ters and letters which go to .form a font of
types, we will state that there are two cases,
as the printers call them, the lower case con
, mining all the common or small letters, with
the figures and points of punctuation, double
letters, spates and , quadrants ; this case has
54-boxes. and every one is occupied: The
upper case containing the large and small
capitals, and numerous marks and charae=
ters which are in common use, has 98 boxes.
Thus it seems the type founder, in order to
supply a common font of Roman letters, has
to have constructed 150 matrices—and the
Italics are not included here, which will
make over 100 more—just to manufacture
letter, &c., of size and corr es ponding faces.
Here then, there must be about 250 charac
ters, arid some of them a good many times
over, to print a newspaper. To give the un
initiated the number and proportion of types
used—it may answer just to state that we
use, say for a common average font
a 8,500: b 1,600 ; c 3,000: d 4,000; e 12,-
000 ; f 2,000 ; g 1,6000; h 6,000 ; i 8000 ;
j 400: k 800; 112,000 m 3,000 ; n 8,000 ;
o= 8,000 ; p 4,000 ; q 550 ; r 5,000 s 8,000:
t 9, 000 ; u 4,000 ; v 1,000 ; w 900 ; x 500 :
Y 2;000 ; to 200.
Nothing is here said of points, figures,
double letter, and other characters, which
would swell the list amazingly. And all
this makes one item in a common newspaper
office. Nor is anything said of thenumerous
pictures, flowers, ornamental shades, con
densed, extended, &c., types used in job and
newspaper printing, all of which is necessary
to make the stock of an ordinary newspaper
establishment. The types cost...from 30 cents
to $3 a pound.
A common newspaper office , ought to be
supplied with from 1000 to 1500 lbs. of type.
These with some $250 for a hand press, a
good many dollars for brass rules, and still
more for iron materials, ink, &c., will make
a very large abstraction from $l,OOO. The
usual width of newspaper columns is about
17 m's wide. And an em is the thickness of
a line..
PISTOLA AND COFFEE FOR TWO.
Many persons'do not know the origin of
this Phrase. It is peculiarly the language of
the Irishman, who cannot be beat at an'
anathema,. nor at the humor and satire that
obnoxious conduct calls forth. The French
is the language of love.—the _English of busi
ness—but commend us to the Irish for many
things in few. words, which the Anglo-Irish
imitate pretty well. But to our subject :
Some years ago, an Irishman of large es
tate entered a London coffee house.—His
brogue arrested theattention of a finely-scen
ted foppish sprig of the aristocracy, who re
lying on his superior accent, r es olved to set
a crowd of civilians at the Irishman. The
latter calleit for coffee—so did "the dandy ;
then for toast—so did the other—milk, sugar,
cakes,_Str..., were severally called for by the
Irish gentleman, and echoed by the dandy,
I who with his friends, enjoyed the sport in a
side box,
.and laughed loudly at the supposed
embarrassment of the "Paddy" who at last.
with great composure, and in the very rich
est brogue, rose, shut and locked the dcior,
and called to the landlord for "pistols and
coffee for two."—The jester's echo silenced,
and the laughing company cried out for titer;
,cy. The laugh of derision was'on the other
side, and the puppies were . allciwed to sneak
out doors, one at a time, with a kick from
the waiter.—Wheeltng Argus.

"Seven Years at a, Trade, or College Life."
—This epoch-takes the boy to twenty-one—
the empire of manhood. He has whittled
his bench to a skeleton in the school-house,
'served his apprenticeship, and is now his
own lord and master—he is to begin the
world for himself. He disdains-to be called
a boy, and lacks the boldness to look upon
himself as a man. He is in a I"tiansition
state," like the pin-feathered goslin just step
ping upon the threshold of goosehood.
He exerts every effort to persuade a little
hair to garnish his cheek. and chin—applkes
oil, raw egg, potato poultices, and good Peter
only knows what else, for the promotion of
a respectable growth. When begets it, then
he isn man to a live certainty, and.mnst be
gin to look about "to find a place and a wife."
It is easier for him to get possession of a
wife than of a place; yet he might hunt and
smell about for more , than seven years and
catch a Tartaress after all. .
A good wife is a great comfort—a
ly blessing—a first-rate affair; but a poor one ,
is a source of greater uneasiness than were
a shirt made of hemp and briar bushes.
Then my friends, there are "seven years to
pleasure's follies given"-Ifrom twenty-eight
to thirty-five; that is just about enough of
time's small change to spend for fun, frolic,
and careless enjoyment. Then or never man
makes up his mind • to drive his business, or.
let his, business-drive him. If he is not in a
fair way at forty-two to geChie share of the
world's spoils, he might as well hang up his
fiddle and be content to dig his way through
life as best he may. The "seven years for .
fame" are encouraging, discouraging, per
plexing, pleasing. tormenting,- teasing, and
disappointing-a regular wild-goose chase.
The pursuer thinks every moment he is about
to catch the bird, and so keeps on thinking
till he tires himself out, 'and lies down to
rest - beneath the blanket of obscurity. My
readers—after-the following seven years for
increasing whatever.wealth may be yours—
after the next seven for boarding.it carefully -
op for the encouragement of vice and lazi
ness in your progeny—after the next seven
years spent in weakness, whimsicalness,
childishness and care, you toddle out of the -
world, and go,,—nobody knows where, only'
those who have, gone before you.—Mercury.
All acid foods, drinks, medicines, and
tooth washes and powders, are very injurious
to the teeth. If a tooth is put in. cider, vine
gar, lemon juice, of tartaric acid, in a few
hours the enamel will be completely de
stroyed, so that it can•he removed by the fin
ger nail as if it were chalk. Most persons
have experienced what is commonly called
teeth set on edge. The explanation of It is,
the acid of the fruit that has been eaten has
so far saftned the enamel of the tooth; that
the least pressure is felt-by the exceedingly
small nerves which pervade the thin mem
brane which connects the enamel and the
bony part of he tooth. Such an effect can
not be produced without injuring the enamel.
True, it will become hard again when the
acid •has been removed by the fluids of .the
mouth, just as an eggshell that has been
softened in this way becomes hard by being
put iu the water. When the effect of sour
fruit subsides, they feel as well as ever, but
they are not as well. And the oftener it is
repeated, the sooner will the disastrous con
sequence be manifested.
Of the three modes! of using tobacco,
smoking is that which seems to have Mein
uated itself most extensively among the
y'outh of our community, Tobacco, employ
ed. in this way, being . drawn in with the vt
tal breath, conveysits_ poisonous influencei
into every part o r the lungs'. There the
noxious fluid is entangled in the minute
spongy air, cells,; l and • has time tti exert its
pernicious influence - on the blood, not.in vi
vifying, but in vitiating it. The blood im
bibes the stimulant narcotic principle, and
circulates it through the whole system. It
produces, in consequence, a febrile action in
those of a delicate habit. Where there is
any tendency to pthisis and tubetcular de
posits in the lungs, debility of these organs,
consequent on the use of tobacco in'this way,
must favor the deposit of , tuberculousmatter
and thus sow the seeds of consumption.
This practice impairs the natural taste and
relish for loud, lessens the appetite, and
weakens the power of the stomach. As to
the pleasure piQuced by it, it is, I believe
a well known fact, that a person smoking
in the dark is often 'unable to determine
whether his cigar is lighted or
-not.--Dr. J.
C. Warren.
We have been assured by a good observer
that tin roofs perish very soon Where a chim
ney emitting coal smoke is near them.—
,Whether wood smoke produces a like effect
or not we have not learned, but presume it N
does. Weshould think the pyroligneous acid
would of itself_be sufficient to otydize a me
tat roof, if deposited upon it in damp weath
er ; and the smoke of coal no doubt contains
elements quite as pernicious. '
Whatever the cause, however, the effects
are worthy of observation. On many ac
counts, metal roofs are very desirable, and it •
is important that the best means of preser
ving them sliciuld be understood.. Paint is
of course very serviceable, but it is'not ap
plied with a sufficiently liberal hand.—
Against the actions of acids oil is.a good pro
tector, and spirit of turpentine should in
this case be accordingly avoided. •
But one sigh morel'll giVe thee,
Thou long, long cherished one :
No more I nowmay !ova thee— •
The light of hope is gone.
I dare not think how foully
My very soul was thine,

Bat fate-dark fat--has severed

And though they thus are blighted,
Yet must they still live On. •

MEDICAL USE OF SALT.
In many cases 'of disordered"stomach, a
teaspoonful of salt is a certain cure. In the 5--
violent internal pain,. termed colic, a tea-'
spoonful of salt, dissolved in 'a pint of cold
water, taken ,as soon as posssible, with a
short nap immediately after, is one of the
,most effectual and speedy ,remedies known.
The same will relieve a person who seems
almost dead from receiving a heavy fall.
In an apoplectic fit, nb time should be lost
in pouring down salt water, if Sufficiept sen
sibility remains to allow of swallowing; if
not, the head must be sponged with cold
water until the sense returns, when the salt
will completely restore, the patient from the
lethargy.
In•cases of severe bleeding at the' lungs; ,
and when other remedies failed, Dr. Rush
found that two teaspoonfuls of salt complete-
IY stayed the blood. .
