Tam Paris Clonstilutionntl of March 17
makes the subjoined brief but highly
eulogistic remarks on the anniversary of
theltitti of - Mareh, the Prime
„ Impales
fifteenth birthday :
The day has a double significance for
Prance. It recalls to mind the glorious
end of a war engaged In, not with a view
of conquest, but In the Interest of the
general balacce of power—that Is to say,
of the pesos and civilization of Europe.
That it also coincides with the birth of a
prince who will continue the reign of the.
Napoleonic dynasty. To celebrate the
16th of March is not the act of scantier,
but the duty of a citizen. Years succeed
each other quickly, and men forget even
more rapidly. If the second, during the
period through whit has just passed,
subject to the lot cu ll human institu
tions, boa not been exempt from error,
let us also remember that it his done some
good and great things; let us hope that
the Parliamentary empire may spare us
all the inconveniences inherent in a per•
tonal regime, without depriving usrpf the
prosperity at home and prestige abroad
for which we are Indebted to 'the' latter.
In a word, let us ask of Providence-that

NAT I PIPES
Leal the ileal . thleat and Safest Loaaaetar;
The question of metallic water conduc
tors is exciting some attention In New
York, owing to the fact that complaints
and remonstrance& have been laid In to
the Board of Health against the use of
lead pipes. A correspondent of the
Bowsaw Pea furnishes ths following in.
tainting statements on the subject, which .
wiUbe read with Interest in those parts
where nothing bet lead and Iron pipes are
used in aupplying our houses with water.
Heap:
Pip - ea made from pure block tin appear
at the Ant giants to be the healthiest and
best, but, on careful examination, serious
objections present themselves to their
practical use. Tin melts at a very low
temperature (42 0- F.) and is rendered
useless if run water is allowed to pus
t zongh it, the effect being to soften it
and destroy its shape. There is some
innate quality In tin whlcr finales it a
very unreliable metal, as pipe made from
the beat and rarest tin Icturren to com
merce, will sometimes, even when mode
with the greatest cur, be full of small
holes, hardly visible to the naked eye, yet
suflicksztly howl to allow the water to
oozy out. It a tin pipe be laid In ground
of a lime formation, or if water contain
ing lime be drawn through it, the tin Will
be rapidly eaten up. Tin, therefore, as a
conduit of water, mint forfeit all claim to
durability. In addition to the above, the
price of block tin is so high, owing to the
[act that the supply does not keep pace
with the increased consumption, that it
cannot be brought into general use.
I Lead encased, or tan lined pipe, is also
considered by some as writable for con
veying water, but, medically, it is not
only not suitable, but really dangerous to
health. The lining, wbeh perfect, Is so
thin, that the slightest beiior bruise is
apt to crack ft. The diff eren ce of, tem.
penalize at which the lin ing (tin) melts
(442 deg. F.) and the maid° (lead) (612
deg. F) and the consequent contraction
and expansion by heat and cold, produce
a separation between the two, 'thus eau.
leg the lining to crack,l and the two
metals to be eosed to the action of the
water. The silence of chemistry Web.
limbs. the fact. that metals, differing in
crystalline structure, when Owed together
in common water, are , by galvanic
action, rapidly oxydized; disintegrated
and destroyed. If lead and tin are placed

action, whereby the water comes in con

the water, immediately results.
Professor Augustus Maliniessen, F. R.
S., his lecture on "Alloys and 'their
Uses," before the Royal Institution of
Great Britain, declares that two metals
are known which do not dissolve when
in combination and acted on by water.
Galvanized iron pipe has been extensively
used, owing to Its combining strength
and cheapness; but still it dime not meet
the requirements of health and durability.
Lead pipe has been used over Ave hand•
red years in England and elsewhere, and
has, therefore, had a longer practical test
than pipe made of any othe metal. It
combines the necessary req ents of
strength, durability, pliabill ~convenie
nce, cheapness and health. tis thought
by some that w ater drawn through leaden
pipes is unhealthy. This is true of
chemically pure or distilled water, but
not of the water ordinarily used for drink
ing. The former la generally used by
chemists when making experiments as to
the effect of lord on water, but very
rarely for drinking. Prof. Stockhwth
of Barony, In his "Pirnciples of Chants
try-Illustrated" (translated by Dr. U. H.
Pierce, and endorsed by E. N. Hereford.
"Samford Professor in the University at
Canahridge,") says, "Pure ( chemicall y) water readily attacks lead, and con
verts It into hydrated oxide of lead; in
spring water, on the contrary, Gov is
formed in time, by the sulphates almost
always proud in it, some insoluble sul
phate Of lead, which forms afters coattail
upon the metallic lead. Ws explains
the harmleuness of leaden pumps, which,
in many countries, are quite genteelly
used instead of - wooden pumps." That
this letzete of leaden pipes experience has
abundantly proved.
The commission 'tippeintettliy Perlis.

report what kind of pipes wens the health

In th•43npreme Court to-day the Chief
Justice stated the reason why the rehear

which the Court heretofortodecided the
legal tender act was Invalid uto con- .
tracta made before Its Peluso,' Was that
none of the four , judges now on the

the cue reheard, and under the rule of
the Court, without the consent- rd some
one of add edges who concurred In the

It appears that' the inuring of the

the decision of tee Court of Claims In

nature.
