The New York Sunday Times suggets that it Would be a good idea to place a croas:heat ing an appropriate epitaph, at the locality of each railroad accident, as a gentle intimation to passengers'of the peril of their situation, and a continual memento of the uncertainty of life'on railroads. It is true that the mut. tiplicity of conaiform indicators might, in the course of time, be attended with some incon venience, but the'advantage would be gained of pointing out to the traveller the road where he would meet the fewest crosses, and, con sequently, stand the best chance of security. The Times offers a few samples of the style of epitaph which should be selected, as fol lows : "A sudden pitch From a 'misplaced switch Laid me dead in this ditch." " Off the track the engine rushed— ' Some were drowned and I was crushed." "Here repose two victims staked At one blow by the same saakehead " What is life ? 'Tis, but a vision, • Here I died by kcolliston Twenty more died by the same, Verdict —' Nobody to blame.' " "Sister, mother, aunt and me • Were run over. , Here we be. We should have had time to mizzle, Had they blown the engine's whistle." " Sweeping round a curve Whose outer Ilexture bordered tin abyss, The cars were canted down the precipice, And seven of us killed. But what oldie!? 'Twas the curve did it. And the engineer, Being upon abrader, was excused." " Traiaboriie traveller, rushing by, As thou passeth pipe thine eye. Here a car, well tilled with freight, • Killed sixteen and wounded eight., For a moment, friends, be weepers, • As you pass the railroad sleepers, You.may share our fato—why not ? - Ere you reach the next depot." " Here are deposited the bones, (The flesh being torn off) Of en unlmown man, Who, being deaf, blind and lime, Neglected to obey the customary signals, And was run over as a Famishment For his-contumacy. The engineer promptly stopped the engine After it had cut the body in two, And, with most exemplary humanity, Conveyed the remains to sus adjacent wood•'hed • re all means of resuscitation were tried But alas! • • , The vital spark had tied For the humanity they then displayed. The engineer and signal men , Were presented, by the company, With a service of plate— Go thou and do likewise." ME LUNATIC AND SPORTSMAN. In an article otr " The World at Large," the purport of which is to show that men who are reputed sane often act very insane ly, a writer in Chambers' Edinburg Journal reproduces this story : . A gentleman of fortune visited a lunatic as3rlum,where the treatment consisted chiefly in forcing the patient to stand in tubs of cold water—those slightly affected, up to the knees; others, whose cases were graver,,up to the middle ; while persons very seriously ill, were immersed up to the neck. The visitor entered into conversation with one of the patients, who appeared to have some_cu rtosity to know how 'the Manger passed his time out of doors. " I have horses and .grey hounds' for coursing;" said the latter in reply to the oth. er's question. Ah, they are very expensive." Yes, they cost me.a great deal of money in the year, but they are the best of their kind." " Have you anything mare?" "Yea, I have a pack 'of hounds for hunt• ing the fox." " And they cost a great deal, too ?" • " A very great deal: And I have birds foi hawking." " I see ; birds for hunting birds. And these swell up the expense, I dare say ?" " You may say that, for they are not com mon in this _country. And then, I some times•go out atone with my gun, accompa nied by a setter and retriever." " And these are expensive, too ?" Of course. After all, it is not the ani mals of themselves that run away with the money ; "there must be men, you know, to feed and look after them, houses to lodge them in—in short, the whole sporting estab lishment:" " 1 see, I see. You have horses, hounds, setters, retrievers, hawks, men—and all for the capture of birds. What an enormous revenue they must coFt you ? isiow,what I want to know is—what return do they pay ? What does your, year's sporting produce ?" " Why, we kill a fox now and' en—only they are getting rather scarce hereabouts— and we seldom bag fess than fifty brace of birds each season." " Hark '!" said the lunatic looking anx iously around him. "My fneod, (in an ear nest whisper) there is a -gate behind you ; take my advice and be out of this place while you are safe. Don't let the doctor get his eyes upon you. Ile ducks us- to some pur pose: but as sure as you are a living man, he will nnows Yor." 1:1:7 SCENE IN COURT.—A certain lawyer in one of the Western States had a dog that ,was a great favorite, and was in the habit of attending court with him. One day, the dog took it into his head to ascend the bench, and annoyed the judge very much, by run ning between his legs. The judge, in great rage, gave him a violent kick that sent him yelping across the court-house. The law yer, much incensed at the unceremonious manner in which his favorite was treated, called to him— " Pomp, come here ! There, take that," said be, giving him another kick ; " did I not always tell you to keep out of bad com pany ?" 7*QUESTTONS FOIL VIE LONGEST DAY.-- 1.

PILZSERVATION OF BUTTER. DT 1. IL survim, N. D., NEW TORE. VT' I send you herewith a uunslation of a note, t on a method for improving the quality eid prolong ing t bepreservation of butter, by M. Chalambel. It is from the 16th NOvember to October 1854 of the Comptes Reams of the French Acadeiny of Sciences. " It butter consisted only of the fatty parts of milk it would undergo, from exposure to air, very slow ch.inges. But A reto a certain quantity of casein (cheesy matter) which 15round in the cream. The casein ferments and generates batty sic acid, which is the cause of the disagreeable rancid taste. Repeated washing imperfectly remoTim this acid, for water-does not cool butter and does not dissolve the casein, which has become insoluble under the influences of the acids, which form in the cream. :We might obtain a more complete - Purification if we should saturate (neutralize) these acids. The casein would then become solable,:consequently by repeated washings it would be almost entirety removed. "This is the. mode by which we purpose to at tain this end ; when the cream has been put into the churn, mix with it. a Initial a time, enough of the milk of lime, (quick-lime diffused in water of the consistence of milk) to destroy entirely the aridity. The cream is then to be churned until the hinter is separated, but.we must nacontinue the process until it collects in masses. The butter-milk is then to be poured , off, and water tallied in place of it. The .churning is then to be continued, until the butter is fully made. It is then , taken from the churn and made into rolls.. By this method we have obtained betlii - butter, alail it has preserved its qualities for tionger time than that made in the common manner. The butter-milk lose s its sharp taste, and is more agreeable to min and animals and is no longer laxative. We have, moreover, restored rancid butter by repeated washings with lime water. Any alkaline solution answers egually as well as lime water."— Journal of the New Yo'rk State Agricultural So -defy of February, 1852. MILK PAINT. tar A paint has been used on the Continent of Europe with success, made fronci milk and lime, that dries quicker than oil paint, and has no smell. It is thus made. Take fresh curds, and bruise the lumps on a grind stone, or in an earthen pan, or mortar, with a spatula or strong spoon. Then put them into a pot with as equal ;quantity of lime, well slatted with water, to make it just thick enough to be kneaded. Stir this mixture without adding more water, and a white colored fluid will soon be olkained, which will serve as a paint. It may be laid on with a brush with as much ease as a varn ish, and it dries very speedily. It must, however, be used - the same day it is made, for if kept till next day it will be thick; consequently no more must be made as one time than can be laid on in a day. Any color, red or yellow ochre, may be mixed .with it in any proportion. Prussian blue is changed by the-lime. Two coats of this paint is sufficient, and when dry, it may be polished with a piece of woolen cloth, or similar substance, and it will be come bright as varnish. It is only for inside work but it will last very• long it varnished over with the white of 311 egg atter it has beeti polished. VARNISHES. nr VARSISH FOR COATI3GI4TALS--Digesi one part of bruised copal in two parts of absolute alco hol; but as this varnish dries too quickly, it is pre ferable to take one part of the copal, one part of oil of rosemary and two or th l iee parts of absolute alcohol. This gives a clear varnish as limpid as water. It should be applied hot, and when dry, it will‘ae found very hard and durable. Fon Van.Nrsurso LEATimic'r—Espeetally of deli cate colors, the following is , recommended. Sit parts of oil of turpentine, saturated with, caout chouc, two parts of copal, and two parts of . oil of rosemary. This varnish should be applied some what thiid, and always dricdat a Inch temperature. SHOES. Wheuerer shoes or boots arc taken from the leet, it will greatly prolong the upper leather from cracking, if the wearer was :to bend back tite sole of the shoe' n the knee, or the back of a chair, sad also pinch up the upper.leather ; it should be done when warm from the feet. Shoes woreonly once. a week should be done in this manner every Sun.' day night. When put on again the next Sunday, morning, they will have the feel of a new pair I was told this by a shoemaker, out of business, as d secret, some years ago, and 'have always attended to it since with a great saving to my pocket. • CHICKEN, REEF, OR VEAL BROTH [?This is made by cutting up the chicken, or the lean of real or beef, and putting in two spoons. ful of washed rice,and boiling until tender It may be used if needed in haste, after boiling in less water about 15 minutes, then filling up and finish ing. It should be put by in 'a bowl or pitcher cov ered, to keep for use. Warm it, and add crumbs of Boston crackers or bread a day or two old, with a tittle salt, and there is nothing mole palatable for the sick, CIIICKEN JELLY. Q' Cut a chicken into small piece., bruise the bones, and put the whUlestone jar and cover it close. Set the jar in di tettle of boiling water, and keep it boiling thraelLours. Then strain off the liquid, and season tywi a little salt, pep per, maee, &c., or with loasuentand lemon. Re turn the chicken to the jar and boil again; it will produce as much as before', of jelly.

Henry, Bmnee, I; re, Aevuin, and others. From oneol these works, aided by the Reports of the late Sir 'William Congreve, we learn that in the year 1814 there was only one gasometer in Peter -street, Westrniaster, of 14,000 cubic feet, be longing to the chartered Gas Light Company, then the only company established in London. In 1827 there were four great companies, having, altogether, gasometers at work capable of containing in the whole 917,940 cubic feet of gas, supplied by 1.- 315 retorts, end these consuming 33,000 chaldrons of coal in the year, producing 41,000 elialdrons of coke; the whole quantity of gas generated annually being upwards of 397,000,000 cubic feet by which 61,203 private, and 7,268 public or street, lamps are lighted, in the metropolis. In addition to these great companies, there were several private estab lishments, whose operations are not included in the fore-going statements; for, it appears that where: more than filly li‘lits are required, a coal-gas appa ratus will be found profitable. Thus, the gas for the otlice of the Morning Chronicle 'newspaper is made on the premises. Accordrigto Mr. Murdoch's statement presented to the Royal Society, 2,500 feet of gas were gener ated from.,7. 784 lb. of cannel coal. This is nearly 3i cubic ket for every pound of coal, and indicates judicious management. The price of the best Wigan cannel is 13/4 per cwt. delivered at Manchester; or about . 81. for the 7 cwt. About one-third of the above quantity of good common coal, at 10s.. per ton, is required for fuel to heat the retorts. Neatly two;thirds of the weight of the coil remain in the retort, in the form of coke, which is sold on the spot at Is. 4d. per cwt. The quan tity of tar produced from each ton of cannel coal,is from 11 to 12 ale gallons. This tar is now even sively used as paint for out buildings, .&. ; and the ammoniacal liquor, also a result of the prscess, iarturned to still more advantageous account in the manufacture of carbonate of ammonia; so that no thing is lost. rir Wily sumo sulphuric acid slim/be dose. 19 wowed? tem". it rapigyabsorbs water from the atmosphere ; so that, to moist weather, 3 parts by weight increase to 4 is 24Itoure.

Prepared from Rennet, or the fourth Stomach of the Os. after directions of Baron I.ribit, the great Physiological chemist;by J. 8. Houghton, at. D. of Philadelptils„Ta. This is a truly wonderful remedy far indigestion. Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver Complaint, and Debility. Curing after Nature's own method; by Nature': own Agent, the Gastric Jane. Half a teaspoonful of Pepsin, Infused In Water, will 'Brost or dissolve, Five pounds of Roast Beef In about two hours, out Of the stomach. Pepsin is the chief element, or OreatDigesting prin ciple of the Gastric Juice—the. Solvent of the Food, the Purifying. Presriving, and Stimulating agent of the. Stomach and Intestines. It is extracted from the Digestive Stomach of: the Ox, thus forming an Artifi cial Digestive Fluidothcisely like the natural Gastric Juice in its Chemical powers. asd furnishing a com plete and perfect substitute for it. fly the aid of this preparation. the pains and evils of Indigestion and Dyspepsia are removed, just as they would be by a healthy Stomach. It Is doing wonders for Dyspeptics curing Calies:ol Debility, Emaciation, Piervpus Des ctine.end Dyspeptic Consumption, supposed to be on the" verge of the grave. The Scientific Evidence upon which It is based, is In the highest degtee curious and remarkable. Caron Lirbig, in his celebrated work on Animal rfiiemistry, says: An Artificial Digesfive Fluid ana _s ous to the Gastric Juice, may be readily prepared al.the mucous membrane of the stomach of the Calf o which various articles of food, as meat and eggs, will be softened, changed. and digested, just in the same manner as they would be la the huntanvtomach.' Dr. Pereira, in .his famous treatise on "Food and Diet," published by Fowlers & Wells, New York, page 35, states the same great fact. and describes the method of preparation. There are few higher mutton. ties than Dr. Pereira.... BM '22 °T.l=-c dc :0 .. - Dr. Combe. tn his valuable writings onthe"Physiol ogy of Digestion," observes that dimunitionof the due quantity of the Gastric Juice to a prominent and ad-prevaiiing cause of Dyspepsia r" and be• states that 'a distinguished professor of medicine in London, who woo severelytfllicted with thin complaint, find ing everything eine to fail, had recourse to the Gastric Juiccofirtained from the stomach of living animals, which proved completely succesofni." Dr. Graham. author of the famous worst: on"Fege table Diet," says: "it Is a remarkable fact in physi ology, that the stomachs of animal; macerated in water, impart to the fluid the property of direrolvins various articles of food, anti of effecting a kind of are Uncial digestion of them In no wile dilTetentfroin the natural digestive process." Dr. Simon's great work,the "Chemistry of Man," (Lea & Dianchard,Phila. 1848, pp. 321-2) says : "The diacovery of PEPSIN forms a new era in the arena. cal history of Digestion. From recent experiments, we know that food is dissolved as rapidly in an Atli. finial digestive duid,prepared from Pepsin, as it is in the natural Gastric Juice Itself."
