Railway Comfort.
For The Trowel
Mauna. Entreat' : In your paper of December
30th, under the heading of Warming and Venti
lating Railroad Cars," you truly remark that
" the subject is one In which everybody is more or
less • interested." This being emphatically 'the
ease, even to an extent much greater than is real.
lied, may bee sufflolent reason for my asking; the
publication of the folivring in relation to an appa
ratus patented in —, which bas also been tho
roughly tested and found to be °rivale of produ
cing results which no other contrivance ever yet
tried has been able to accomplish. The apparatus
in question is known as Barry's Patent Ventila
ting, Dust-Arresting, Cooling, and IleattneAppa,
tabu." It Is (es has been demonstrated by I ee
rie, of experimental trips on the Pennsylvania
Central and the Philadelphia and Baltimore Rail
roads) capable of accomplishing the following very
desirable results, to wit: In summer, the eatire
exoluaion from the car of dust, smoke, sparks, and
noxious insets. The thorough ventilation of the
ear and the cooling of the air, to any degree re
quired for comfort.
In winter the ear is warmed thoroughly and uni
formly, and at the lame time effectually ventilated,
as the principle of the apparatus is such that the
oar cannot be warmed except it is ventilated, nor
nor can It be ventilated except it is warmed. 'The
very uncomfortable and injurious cold currents of
air coming in through the cracks of the winclows,
.to., is oleo entirely obviated as there le constantly
a pressure of air in the oar that is peeking egress
through *very aperture of the same.
Tho uniformity of temperature so greatly desired
both for health and oomfort, is also most effectually
attained, as was shown on the 00011E10D of the trial ;
for six thermometers, hanging at the ends and;een
tire of the oar, top and bottom, did not show a sari
atter* of ten degrees, the average temperature he
log about seventy degrees, while on, the o'lier Can
of the same train the temperature was shown to
be twenty-two degrees on tne floor, on the seats at
the front end twenty-four degrees, at the WAS end
twentpiLl degrees, and In the centre of the oar,
next to the red.bet stove, the temperature; was
fortrfour degrees at the. door, and one hnzidred
and ten degrees at a height of Ave feet from the
door.
It will thus be seen that not a single seat in the
whole train was comfortable except those in ths oar
having the apparatus In qiestion attached. The
ordside tploperature was from one to three degrees
above sere— , the trip in the night, from IlesrlAurg
to thit city.
From the above It will be teen that all of the
objections to railroad travel (so far as comfort) and
health are consorned) eon bo entVely- 'overrule,
and additional oomforts, and even luxuries se red
which oannot eo readily be °birdied at home.
Without golog totfititrottlutuAlittua r ut wouldstate
that the results above alluded to may be obtained
tbr the benefit of the travelling public, at but a
nominal cost to the railroad company, as will ap
pear from the following feats : Tho apparatus in
question being placed underneath the oar occupies
no room whatever in it; and as usually the room
of four-persons is required for a stove, a saving of
room is effected equal to one car in fifteen. And
as the apparatus requires but about one-half of the
fuel consumed in the ordinary oar stove, there is a
Saving erected in this roped. And in the sum
mar months the luxury of tiding In a railroad car
not only exempt from the usual accomparlying
nuisances of dast, heat, smoke, and sparks, but in
the actual enjoyment of an atmosphere cooled to
any degree required for health and comfort, can
be had for the trifling east of two cents for, eaoh
passenger carried one hundred miles.
The apparatus is applloahle to all cars, and
would cost from $1.76 to $2OO per car. That
the travailing public are willing and anxious
to pay whatever is necessary to secure all of
the comforts that can be obtained, there cats
be no question ; and that railroad companies
should furnish everything in their power to render
travelling safe, healthful, and pleasant, there can
also be no doubtlabout. The ordy question to be an.
'leered, is, will they do it, and thus secure to them
patrons, beside speedy travel, the additional de
siderata of lItALTR, COMPOIIT, PLEASITRI.
Pal/conger Railway Acchlouts—Double
Tracks.
For The Prese.l
MR. EDITOIt : Before your valuablo journal en.
mums "another melancholy accident,"
ea it may do, the life of "one of our oldest
anti most valued citizens," or of no " estimable
lady," or of a " lovely little child, jastooming from
school," with the further information that "no
blame can be attached to the driver or conductor,"
permit mo to nail your attention, and that of the
public, and especially of the directors of double
track railways, to the frightful risk that Is daily
run by men, women, and children, of being °rushed
by the cars on the other track, when riling out on
what is called the wrong side."
We know the conductors endeavor to avoid this
risk by inducing passengers to get out on the aide
farthest removed from the ether track; but they
have their other duties to attend to.
Would not a email, movable gate, to ebift from
ono Bide to the other, preventing either ingress or
egress except on the "right side," at once secure
the safety of passengers? Until some expedient is
adopted the directors aro of course responsible,
ehould en aocident occur; and, if your powerful
aid was exerted, Mr. Bditor, to create a more
healthful publio opinion touching the saorodness of
human life, and the rosponsibility so thoroughly
recognised in the Old World of those who under
take to Dumas public) undertakings, your paper
would be, even more than it now Is, the organ of
enlightened progress and IiI.I3II.IfITY.
UARD ox Rams —The Pittsburg journal says
The severe frost of the past three or four days bas

REMARKABLE SLTICIDE.—The body of
young man named bleSteiggeu, was recently found
in a cave, by two gunners, near ,McKeesport, Pa.
From the position and appearance of the body, it
was evident that young hieSwiggen crawled into
the cave, and having with him a pistol, had blown
cif the whole upper part of the skull—the brains
being entirely out. The bead of the deceased was
aboutone-third or perhaps one-half larger than it
should have been, to comport with his physical
organisation, and hts singular habits were attri
buted to this eircumstance. The pistol had been
borrowed last Fourth of July, and never return
ed to the owner, and he meditated suicide at that
time, in consequence of a hurt than received. lie
bad evidently loaded the pistol after ho crawled
into the cave, aa the lead from *MA he out the
slugs,
the knife, the powder desk and the can box
were found carefully plead upon a projecting roar
in the cave. The pistol was held to olosely to the
root of the nose, that both eyes were blown out
wardly to the aide of the face,. and the builds of
! hewing that actually blackened with powder,
showing that at the time the head was blown open,
the charge of the powder had not all been con

I. Ease warm clothes In winter.
2. Never remain In damp or wet clothes unless
you are at work or on this march. r
3, in summer wear light elothing of soft wog!!
artrea tuna linen. flo metal to wash this cloth

5. Never gasp on the bare ground. Pat a plank
under your feet when you 'stolid still.
6. in summer put • little straw upon your
blank, and cover it with a rutting of rope yarn or
amboo.
7. Never drink water, always tea.
8. Clarify your water, when it Is muddy, with
rock alum.
9. Drink In moderation the spirits of the own
try, taking ear, to warm thorn first The best
spirits are those made from sorgho (karnlyeag) or
wheat.
10. Eat moderately.
11. Never sat decks. The beet meat is that of
Tonquin, when not too fat.
1Z: Sat but sparingly of sweets and fruits. The
sugarcane Is almost the only wholesome sweet
thing. All others are either toe beating, or sit
cold on the stomach. Never eat fruit too ripe.
13. As soon as you arrive in the country esquire
the habit of eating rise as the natives cook it; their
rice is much better than bread, which is always
heating.
it. When you smoke spit as little as possible.
15. At night take can to cover your head well,
and more particularly your eyes.
16 In hot weather avoid cold planes; draughts
are always dangerous.
17. In spring and autumn hike care never to get
wet footed en a morning.
18. Never take a nap in the daytime.
Loan Dasesas.—The " Autocrat " of the At
lantic Monthly throws of the following:
But confound the make-believe women we
have tamed loose in our streets, where do they
come from ? Why, there Isn't a beast or a bird
that would drag its tall through the dirt in the way
these creatures do their dresses. Because a Queen
or Durham wears long robes on great secresions, a
maid-of-all-work, or. a factory girl, thinks she mint
make herself a nuisance thruster the greet, pkdrieg
np and carrying shoat with her—bah! that's what
I call getting vulgarity Into your bones and mar
row. Making believe to be what you are not, is
the essence of vulgarity.
Show over dirt L the one attribute of vulgar
people. If any map can walk behind one of these
women, and see what she rakes op as she goes,
and not feel squeamish, he has got a strong sto
rmed'. I wouldn't leave one of them into my
house without serving them as David did Baal at
the save of the wilderness—eat of their skirts!
Don't tell me that a trim lady ever searlftees the
duty of keeping all around her sweet and elean,
to the wish of making a vulgar show—l won't be
lieve it of a lady.
There are some things which no fashion has any
right to tomb, and oleanliness „is one of these
things.
A Piece or Joint Corns.—Coming up
on the oars, a day or two since, we noticed a cads
verous•looilog personage sitting alone on one of
the seats, and by the side of hint a large piece of
composite stone, on which was painted— ,
'A Pieee
of John Brown's Coffin." We asked him where
he got it. Ile replied, In Esser county. &Ten's
grave was bored in the solid rook, and this piece 1
broke oat myself." The medaverous person looked
upon it as a scored relic, and we have no doubt
will always consider It so.—Buffalo Courier, Mk
gag.
Tsaaa UNITID Sraras Sexaros.—The imprea.
alon has gone out that General Honaton wu de
?Gated in the contest for United States Senator
before the Legislature of Texu, on the Sth ult.
Nothing could be further from the fact. General
Houston was not a candidate. The election was to
ell a vacancy to some oat the term, which expires
with the present congress, and Colonel Lewis T.
WigfaU wu the successful contestant, he having
received sixty votes against fifty-eight cast for fire
or six other candidates. General Houston was not
named, neither did he get • vote. The present
Legislature of Texas will elect a United Steles
Senator to serve for six years from the 4th of
March, 1840, and when that election takes place
General Houston will be a candidate for the po
sition, if Dot previously nominated on the Presi,
dentist] ticket.
ALLIQEDAnDLNAILY DIIICOVIRT.—A Paris
correspondent, writing t the Eaton Trardier,
lays :
Mont lom r Velpean, the eminent surgeon, whore
fame le wide to the world, made the strange com
munication. He stated that an honorable surgeon
or physician (he vouched forth° gentleman's char.
actor) named Erocca or Rodeo had made the fol
lowing experiment: lie had pissed before the fees
of a person, between the person's eyes, and a dis
tance of fifteen or twenty centimetres yi amttetairs
is a French measure of length-0,893,108 inch in
value,) a rather brilliant object (an objet an pen
brifsoll.) Make the person look. Ilsedlyed this
objent. in a few minutes the person will squint,
and will soon fall into catalepsy and be spenutne
onsly deprived of all sensibility.
In the experiments made, the insenaibility al the
patient was so great that the patient's head was
alternately moved from one aide to the other, ttlat
his whole person was moved. He had ne recolloo•
tion of any of them when he returned to his normal
state.
Ibis singular discovery made Mona. Rocca or
Broca' suspect that this state of insensibility might
be as perfect as that obtained by Annabelle Agana.
lie determined to make experiments with it, and
found that the state of insensibility prodneed was
al perfect Al that obtained by the use of ether and
chloroform.
Three experiments out 'of five attempts are re
ported as successful. In one of these easel a man
underwent a surgical operation for an abuse,
which required an important incision. The iasen
sibitity lasted ten or twelve minutes after the oF.e•
ration. The patient was entirely unconscious of
all that had taken place.
Mons. Velpecu, in announcing tide 'new disco
very, said: !It is a strange phenomenon,
so
strange a phenomenon that I feel obliged to mkt)
DOM oratorical precautions in speaking of it to the
Academy of 8010008. I feel obliged to draw as
surance from the talents and honorable cherubic
of Mons. Bruce who has charged me with the
duty of giving his discovery useful publicity, and

In the earliest times it was the harbarlina alone
who wore the eking of wild beasts ; the - more re
fined nations made so use of them, as articles of
luxury, until a later period. Streho states that,
the Italians were clad in the skins of lions, pa
tina, and bears; and Seneca speaks of the Serb
tans as being covered with the skins of foxes, and
the lean ' animals. Caesar tells us of the skin
dressed Irma td . Britain, and Virgil represents
the savage Hyperboxianit as wearing the skins of
wolves. The ancient Greeks did not employ fan

Introduced the Mahlon into - Europe about t*e year

by Tetila, King of the Waged*. The Welsh em

Dda began to reign : Godfrey, of Boulogne, and
his followers on their crusade to the /trey Land,
were robed in the °wiliest of (urn—prebahly
ermine and sable. Charlemagne contented himself
with the plain fur of the otter. Beery the First. it
England, wore furs, and we learn mat when dis
tress and- poverty came upon him, he was obliged
to exchange them for Welch fl.senel. Marco Polo re
lates that in 1252 the tent oldie Chace of Tartary.
which he slept beneath, was lined with ermine sod
sable. The rage for furs arrived at such an extent
in 1337, that Edward the Third prohibited their
use to all persons whose income was less than one
hundred pounds a year. The aborigines of Ame
rica, in the northern latitudes, wore fors rndely
ornamented, when first discovered, and their de
scendants do to this day. At one period the arth
of Asia alone supplied the known world with the
most valuable, though the Scythiara, inhabitants
of modern Sweden, exported furs to a limited ex
tent to the nations of southern Europe. Now, in
addition Rusia, in Europe and America, the Ilnd
sweet Bay Company, Greenland traders, and cur
own hardy hunters and trappers, supply the market.
From all of these sources, large and rateciee
amounts of fan are annually obtained. Chita end
Japan vie with the eountries of Europe and America
In the use of rare and costly furs. Many expeditions
have been sent out by England, Russia, end France,
in search of furs. In Captain Cook's last voyages
to the; northwest coast of America, " trading tor
fur" formed an important feature of the expedi
tion. The French established, at an early date,
trading posts on the St. Lawrence and throughout
the Canadian provinces, making Montreal their
headquarters. The British Budeon's Bay Compa
ny was chartered by Charles the Second, in 167 u,
and immediately erected trading houses on the
shores of that bay and its tributary Mere In
1787 the famous Northwest Company was created,
the warehouses of which were in Montreal and
Quebec.
A few years after a new association of British
merchants formed the Mackinaw Company, and
established a factory at brohilimao Itinir. In
1810 John JuMb Astor formed an association, with
four gentlemen, under the firm of the Peelle Fur
Company, and established a fortified treeing pest
at the mouth of Columbis ricer. Of that co:lnane.
and its results the late beloved Washington Ir
ving—he whose fur-collared portrait is so famdlier
to the world—has given us, in his "Astoria," a fun
and interesting history. Mr. Astor did mere for

or since his time. In 1817 Mr. C. G. Gunter 0-
