Steam Bollir LllSpeCtiOn.
The report of the Hartford Steam Boiler
inspection and Insunmca ! /Company for
May, gives a list of defects of different
kinds deyeloped 1)y comptent inspection,
that may well attract thee i lparticular atten
tion of every person nal i g steam. These
defects consist of fractured plates, furna
ces-Out of shape, incrustation, scale, cor
rosion, both external and internal, water
gauges out of order, safety . valves out of
order, steam gauges out of order, and
Many other detects which tend to render
the use of steam unsafe. With compe
tent inspection all defects are Shown in
time to prevent disaster. Is it a matter of
wonder that explosions take place when we
state that in this report no less than twelve
boilers are spoken of as being used with
out steam-g•iu es of any kiod? The re
port has some udicious remars wideh
we copy: We frequently asked what
is to be underst od by "furnaces out of
shape?" We s ppose that few persons
familiar with s am boilers fail to under
• stand this. Its s well known that the
ftirnace of a steam boiler is subjected to
intense heat, and cortsequenty the iron is
liable to excessive expansion: Where in
judicious firing is done this is especially
true. and we not unfrequently find sheets
'contorted, their joints badly strained, and
a•cemnlete overhauling abso,utely neces
sary for safety. Injudicious firing is a
very prevalent evil. Where coal
in, large lumps is piled upon the
grate nearly or chute to the crown sheets,'
the furnace' cannot be otherwise than se
riously injured. Formerly such practice
was regarded economical, but it is now
well mderatoid that the most economical
fires are those where the coal is small
and evenly scattered over the grate. In
short, thin fires, more frequently fed.
Objection may be made to frequent feed
ing, on the ground that fire sheets are in
jured by a current of cold air impinging
. against them The time required to feed
a fire, managed as described aboye, is
way,very thsheordn mustt, oo wtdie be kept intheo peii some ld o -fashioned
minutes to remove ... the slag that, has
accumulated on the grate bars, and
further, the draft is always more
or less impeded. ' Internal cora o
sion is a difficulty frequently met with; it
is deceptive and dangerous, and can only
be detected by careful internal examine
, - dom. We have found sheets badly defec
tive in this respect, when the exterior of
the boiler appeared amend - and in good
condition. This difficulty arises from
impure water, and is common to a con
siderable extent all over the country. We
,are informed by the 'English companies
that it is common there,especially in the
mining districts . We ave recently re
ceived from them photographs of plates,
pitted and corroded to an alarming extent.
Water gauges, it will be seen, are far from
infallible; they are valuable as a visible
means of indicatingthe height of water in a
boiler, but they should not be relied on
Ito the exclusion of gnage cocks. 'What
~. *we would say to engineers is, look well
"to all the appliances and attaehments of
~your. boilerrthey all need your constant
attention. -It is neither guaranteed nor
expected that they will do your work for
your especially if left to themselves for
months and years together.' Inctorrect
steam wages are too common, and in, the_
reports for this month' are seveidl,l or
. 20 pounds out ofthe way. We have coin;
" mented on this subject so Often that we
will now merely ask, How many whb
', are now running steam boilers would be
willing to . increase their pressure 20
pounds steadily, especially if they are run

Impure Water.
Fe* ot us are aware of the deleterious
-effects. of Impure - water, or how prone
Water Is to• imbibe the Impurities of, the
air. Many of us think if the water is
-clear and cold it must be perfectly pure,
though it has stood in a close bedroom
twenty-four hours; but this is far from
true. If a pitcher of water is set in a
room; for only a few hours, it will absorb
nearly all the respired and prespifed sases
in the roomy the air of which . will have
become purer, but the water utterly
filthy. The colder the water is, the
„greater the capacity to contain, these
• gases. Atiordinary temperatures, a pail
of water can contain a great amount of
ammonia end'carbonic acid gas; and its
capacity'to absorb these gases is 'nearly
doubled by reducing the water to
the •• temperature of ice. This plainly
shows us that water kept in a room over
night. is totally unfit for drinking pur
poses, and should not be used to gargle in
the throat-, also that a large pail of water
standing in' a room would help to purify
the atmosphere, but should be thrown
away the next morning. It also teaches
us the reason that the water from a pump
' 4- should always 4 1)e. pumped out in the
morning - before any of it is used: We
are lamentably ignorant of many of the
ploprietiet of air and water, ..two of the
most hisportant elements of oar nature.
,A MALAY FuzEEAL.—It appears that
there are in New Orleans a few families
. Idalaysr and that they observe the cue

•They bury their dead at night, and
. slaughter upon the grave some animal the
deceased loved in life. At the funeral of
* young - girl,' -which - took place on the

ikatong 'them officiated as priest, in the
•alisence of a regular one, and preceeded,

- fell:minis to the grave. The tomb was an.
nointed, and a fish and :some cake were

relatives and friends passed by the coffin.

Mormonism Meant.
Brigham Young was recently inter
viewed by a party 'of distinguished visit—
ors, and the conversation is reported as
•
follows:
As Judge Trumbull was bidding adieu
to Mr. Young, the latter redarked that,
en returning to Congress, he might .hear
'of some persons being put out of the Ter
ritory, and, it done, he might be sure, It
would be for just and good reasons. llf
such Federal officials should be sent heie
as sometimes have come, tney would be
quietly and orderly put out of Utah, for
good:cause. '
Judge Trumbull—Before you take any
step of that kind allow me to request you
to make known your grievances to Presi
dent Grant.. He is a just man, intending
to do justice to all, but he will not per-)
n
mi violation of the law to go unpun-1
ished. It will nut be safe to molest pub
lic officers in the discharge of their dilties.
.righam Young—What more will he
do for us than Johnson did? Gen. Grant
has removed the only officer here who
was a Mormon, and for no reason save
that he was a Mormon. The United
States Judges who were here some time
ago acted badly. I told them what I
thought of them, and they left.
Judge Trumbull—You will promise
obedience to the Constitution and the
laws of the Union ?
- -
Brigham Young—Adherence to' the
Union, certainly. One enactment of
Congress, however, we shall not obey;
that is the one forbidding polygamy. It
is not right to interfere in that matter.
It is much better for a man to have sev
eral wives to support, honor, and cherish
them, than it is for a man to deceive one,
and cast off, disown, and refuse to sup
port her.
Judge trumbull—That is a matter
about which we must differ. We think
the National Government and the States
can rightfully pass laws against bigamy,
and justly punish the offence. All the
States make a plurality of wives a crimi
nal offence.
Brigham Young—Yes, all the States•
have laws on the subjeet, - and Utah, when
a State, will have an equal right to make
laws protecting polygamy. Until we
Icame here, the subject of polygamy was
not broached. It was not until we had a
revelation on the subject. We think we
ought not to be interfered with in this
matter, as it is nobody'•s business but
our own. We have about 70,000 people.
Congress thinks we are unable to take
care of ourselves as a State. When we
number 300,000, as we soon shall, I
think we will be admitted into the Union.
Judge Trumbull concluded the dialogue
remarking that the law at all events must
be obeyed and upheld.
Mr. 'Young's remark about expelling
Federal officers from the territory who do
not please him, and his declaration that
Mormons would not obey the laws of
Congress against bigamy, created con
' eidemblesen.sation among the members
of the party.
TrottPle In a Templars' Lodge.
The Rochester Democrat of the 9th re.
ports the following under its Police head:
A warrant was procured at the police
office this morning for the arrest of a
young man on a charge of assault and
battery. The warrant was procured by
some of the dignitaries of the order of
Good Temple/1, and arose from the cont
dauLof a young man who , surreptitiously
pined possession of - the pass-word, by
which he gained admittance to the lodge.
After he had passed the outer portal it
was discovered that he was not in good
standing, his standing having been seri
ously affected by sundry. glasses of lager,
in which he had indulged before he ap
peared at the lodge. His presence was at
once objected to by a member, who clam
ored loudly to put him oat. The would
be-Templar was quite put out about it,
and showtd fight, threatening that he
could make hash of any brother who
might interfere with his enjoying 'the
the
right and benefits of his entrance. He
called for the goat, and. said he was ready
to take his'degrees. In fact he was ready
to go at it at once,' but the brothers re
fused to panite the animal and insisted
upon his leaving the halt He then
asked 'era all out to take a drink," but
they declined, which declination be took
as a personal insult, and threatened to
bust up the lodge unless he could be ini
tiated. The initiary step was then taken
to put him out, and with a Good Tem
plar's grip upon the collar of his coat and
the most worn part of his pants, he was
ejected. This morning he made himself
scarce, fearing that he would be arrested
on a warrant for grand larceny—stealing
the pass-word. Now that the word is
out, no confidence is violated in giving it.
It is divided into three sections, and is
given with a sign. The first syllable is
"Scalp," and the guardian of the outer
gates says "per," when the`applicant says
"nong." at the some time placing his
hand edgwise across his upper lip with an
elevating motion, to which the guardian
replies, "Let up!" The warrant was not
served, the • Good Templars putting in
practice one of their mottoes—" Charity"
—and the friends of the young man in
terceding in his behalf. The complaint
was withdrawn.
THE military harbor just inaugurated
by the King. of Prussia, at Wilhelms
haven,. presents to view tive separate har
bors, with canals, sluices to regulate the
tide, and an array of dry docks for ordi
nary and iron-clad vessels. As you ap
proach by ship, you first find , ourself in
an,artificial basin, flanked by immense
granite molei, respectively 4,000 and
9,600 feet long. This basin, called "the
entrance," is 700 feet long and 350 wide.
and leads to the first sluice. 132 feet- ong
and 66 wide. The next basin, -or outer
harbor, is 600 feet long and 400 wide; the
second' •sluice, immediately- behind, as
long and as-wide as the first. Then there
follows a canal. 3,600 feet long, varying
in width from 260 to 108 feet, and having
about halfway :mother harbor for dredg
ing steamer's and almiler , craft. This
leads to the port par, ezcallante, consisting
of a basin 1,200 feet long and 750 feet
wide, with a smaner. special basin for
boats to the right. • • -

SPECIAL NOTICES
pgr SCHENCK_ PULRIONIC
bYHUP, SEAWEED TONIC AND
HANDRAHB PILLS will cure Consumption,
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, If taken accord
ing to directions. They are all three to be taken
at the sometime. They cleanse the stomach; re
lax tne !Ivor and put It to work; thee the appetite
becomes good; the food digests and makes goad
blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh; tne
diseased matter ripens Into the lungs, and the
patient outgrows
cureease and gets well. This
15 the onlY way to consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenck, of
Philadelphia.. owes his unrivaled success In the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Pal
motile Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the
tuugs, nature throws it off by =easy expectora
tion, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a
slight cough will throw it off„ and the patient has
rest and toe lungs begin to heal. -
To do this, the seaweed *sonic and Mandrake
Pills must be sreelyeed to cleanse the stomach
and liver. so that the Pulmonlc syrup and the
food will make good blood.
Schenck's Mandreke Pills act upon the liver,
removing all obstructions. rein: the oucia of
gall bladder, the bile starts freely. and the liver
is. soon relieved; ;he Stools will show what the
Pills can do; nothing has ever been invented ex
cept calomel (a deadly poison es., ;eh is very dan
gerous to use unless with great care, i that will
unlock the gall bladder and start - the secretions
of the liver like Scheuck's Mandrake PUIS.
Liver Complaint is one of tbi most prominent
causes of Consumption,
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic Is a gentle . stimulant
and alterative. and the alkali in the Seaweed,
which this preparation Is made cd, ass its the
stomach to tnrow out the gastric juice to utssolve
the food with the DIAII3OI2IC Syrup, and it is made
into good b cod without fermentation or souring
in the stomach. ' s
The great reason 'Why physlchtes do not cure
Consumption is, they try to do too ir.uch; they
give medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to
stop night sweats, hectic fever and by so doing
they derange the whole digestive powers. lock.-
ing up the secretions, and eventually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, does not try to,
stop a cough, night sweats, chills or fever. Tie.
move the cause, and tney will all stop of their
own accord. No one can, be cured of Consump
tion, Liver Complaint, Dmiepsia. Catarrh,
Canker, Ulcerated Throat , unless the - liver and
stomach are made healthy.
If a person tuka constonyitlon, or course the,
rings in some way are diseased, either tubercles,
abcesses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion,
ur the lungs are - a mass of Inflammation and fast
decaying. -In such cases what must be done? It -
is not only the lungs that are wasting, but it is
the whole body. The stomach and liver have lost
their power to make blood out of fo d. Now Um'
only chance is to take Dr. Schenck's three medi
cines, which will bring ups tone to the stomach,
the patient will begin to want food, it will digest
easily and make good blood; them the patient be
gins to gain in flesh. and as soon as the body be
gins to grow.. the lungs commence to neat up."
and the patient gets fleshy and well. This Le tne
only way to cure Consumption.
Wheu there is no lung disease and only Liver
Complaint and Dytmepsia, Schenck's seaweed
Tonic and Mandrake Pills are sufficient, oithont
the PCDIOIIIC Syrup. Take the fdanerake PUM
freely in ad-billions complaints, as they are Per
fectly harmless..
Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyed uninterranted
health fur many years past, and now weighs 1145
pounds. was wasted away to a mere skelettin, in
the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption,
his physicians having pronounced his case hope
less and abandoned hart to his fate. He was cured
by the aforesaid met !canes. and since his reFove
ry many thousaxds similarly' afflicted have ; used
Dr. Schenck's 'preparation. with the same re
markable success. Full directions accompany
each, making It not absolutely necessary to per
sonalty see Dr. Schenck. unless patients wish
their lungs examined, and for this purpose he is
prefesslot.ally at his Principal Ufnce, Philadele
phis, every :Someday. where all letters for advice
