    ? Kerosene Oil Explosive. - r
2b the Ediurr of The N. Y. Tribune. '
Sir : In jour paper of this morning I
noticed an article on Kerosene, m wiiicn
it is stated tbat'puro keroseno ib not ex
ploitive, and that tbo recent accident re
sulting from the use of thin article wos
due to its adulteration by carophene, &c.
Having had considerable experience ah
consulting cbemis-t in the manufacture of
this oil, I take the liberty to make the
following statement, in the hope that it
may bo instrumental in preventing simi
lar accidents and loss of life.
Kerosene, as well as all other pyrogen
io oils, may or may not be explore, ac
cording to the proceiis of manufacture.
Such oils are mixture of several hydro
carbone, having toiling points varying
from below 200 dcg. to at ovc 600 cleg. F.
If the whole product of the distillation is
collected together aud Bold for kerosene,
or illuminating oil, tho proflt to the man
ufacturer is of course larger than if anv
portion of tho product is separated, but
this cannot bo done without great danger
to the consumer; and, in my opinion, all
the accidents that have occurred, or are
likely to occur from the use of kerosene,
are, or will be, due to the cupidity or ig
norance of the manufacturer rather than
to the use of any foreign substance, euch
as oampheno.
It is a very popular error to beliove
that carophene is explosive. It is not.
All the accideut- which havo resulted
from this article have been produced by
its admixture with alcohol, in the form of
burning fluid. Cou-equently, the addi
tion of campbeuc to kerosene caonot make
the latter explosive, provided the kero
gone has been properly made.
The question now aci-HC!, how can ac
cident from the uo of euch liquids le
be prevented 7 I answer, u-e no mixture
for burning, in whioh alcohol, Fousel oil,
benzole, or any liquid having a boiling
point beiow HUU dog. F. form a part.
(Jatnptcuc boils at 314 dcg. F, au-J ms)
be safely ued for burning, provided it is
not mixed with alcohol. In my ojinion,
however, keror-cne, if properly tim'Jc, is
destined to mpersedc all other fluids for
illumination, but, in order to fulGU tbis
prediction, it i- necessary that the man
ufacturers .-houM exclude that portion of
the oil which pBSse over below the tem
perature of "!00 dee. F, and sell for ker
Oronc that ouly which has a boiling point
above 300 dcj.

Care for Neuralgia.
The following is pi-en by high medi
cal authority as a certain cure for neu
ral;ia: Take a watch glas, and a piece
of lint a little less in siz- thao the watch
glass to be ued which need not be more
than two inche-i in diameterputtioir it
on the hollow side-of the glass. Pour
on a few drops of chloroform, sufficient to
saturate it, and then apply itVat once to
tb part affected, keeping the edges of
the plans clo-elj applied to the .-kin, by
covering it with the b-and, for the pur
"pose of keeping it in position, as well as
of assistinn the evaporation of the chlor
oform. Tbi done from five to ten minute-,
according to the amount of irrita
tion wi.-hed for. This patient during this
time will complain cf a burning sen-a
tiou not so -evere as that produced by
a mu-tard sinapism, which reaches it
height iu Ore minutes, and then abate.",
but does not entirely di-appear for more
than ten minutes. To insure the full op
eration of the remedy, it is necessary that
the watch glass be rather concave, that it
be closely applied to tho skin, and the
band applied over it be sensibly warm
The immediate affect of the application
is to remove all local pain in neuralgia.
Severe Penalty.
We tire the following extract from the
Penal Code for the information of the
"fancy" who delight in bloody heads and
damaged countenances. It will be seen
that the full extent of tbc law is dealt out
to them. Upon conviction, tbe punit-b
ment is by no means of a light character:
"If any person hball unlawfully and
maliciously inflict upon another person,
either with or without any weapon or in
strument, any grievous bodily harm, or
unlawfully cut, stab or wound any other
person, every such person -ball be guilty
of misdemeanor, and being convieted
thereof, shall be sentenced to pay s 6nc
not exoeeding one thousand dollars, and
to an imprisonment either at labor by
separate or solitary confinement, or to
simple imprisonment, not exceeding three
yearn."
Contemplated Seizure of the Federal Cap
ital. The following: is an extract of a letter
received iu New York city from s gen
tleman of hijh position in Washington.
It is dated on the 2d in-t :
"Tbe possession of the seat of govern
ment by the southern confederacy is n
event most conOdeutlj predicted to take
place witbin sixty days. The wife of a
United States Senator told me an anec

to obtain it, wrote to biui that she would
give what he gave for it. fie replied,
"that so far from relinquishing my (his)

"Wal, I don't know, I guess so. There
i only one queer thing about it: JVteti-

A Singular Confession.
Our attention wax called a fe x days ago
to what purported to be the proceedings
of a Democratic meeting, held at Allen
town, Lehigh county, to denounce the
course of the Hon. Mr. Schin-lel in voting
tor the bill commuting the tounagc tax on
tbe Penuylvania llailroad ; aud in th-
same ooonection, to an editorial article
to the Allentown Democrat, in which the
editor confessed that he had receiod a
"large sum of money' for nuataining tbe
vote of tbe Senator. Here is an extract
from the article.
"One of the hired lacqueys of the Peon
sylvania Railroad Company came on to
beset the presn and bold out witn an un
sparing bund the temptation of lucre.
We were offered a large sura ot money to
-u-tain Mr. Schindel; WE TOOK THE mo
ney."
Tho most singular part of this confess
ion i shown in the fact that after having
TOOK THE MONEY." as payment, ol
course, for " su?taining" Mr. S., follows a
homily on morality, interspersed with
abuse of the Senator that would put to
shame tbe voriest Maw-worm that ever
listed. How a mau who openly con
fesHCd that be took a bribe, can as openly
censure another whom he charges, at
east, byimplioation, with the same thing,
is a species of ethics that we confess ne
canuot underrtaud. J bis confession dis
closes certainly a new phase to this ton
nage tax business, while it at the same
time lays bare a depth of degradation to
which we had no idea any man connect
ed with the press was capable of sinking-
It Is conceded that the bill could not
pass without the vote of Mr Schindel iu
t e Senate. It is alr-o understood tbat
Mr Scbiudel had expressed himself in fa
vor of its pa-sage; but could not vote for
it becau-e the pres and the people of bin
di-ttict were opposed to it. Now, if thir
editor would have preserved his honor,
when the offer of "lucre" was presented
him, what was bis duty I Would any
honest man have hesitated? Instead of
spurning it, while still clutching the dol
lars. he sat down aud wrote a letter to
Mr. Schindel, which was read in tbe Sen
ate while the vote was being taken, in sub-
stance as fellows ;
''Hon. J. Schindel.' 1 have examined
Rill No. . I can pee no objection to its
passage, and if you vote for it, I will bus-
taiu jou." Signed. &o.
bod knows our government ia becom
ing corrupt enough I Legislators are
freely charged with being duly mindful
of their posket-1; but what is to become
of our liberties, if the controllers of the
press will accept bribe, make a boat oi
their cbaoie. and then turn round and
charge dishonor upon their victims I It
the Allentown editor TOOK THE MONEY.
what agreement did be make iu return 7
Did he not make a pilgrimage to Phil
adelphia to see a brother editor, then in
that city, to iudurc him to join in us-
aimng Mr. Schindel? Did be not write
the above letter to that gcutlcman before
the passage of that bill? These are ques
tions that deeply interest his honor and
the honor of the press of Pennsylvania.
Whatever may be our views of the roer
its or demerits of thi.- bill (for it has both)
if tbe Allentown man deemed it so ioiqui
tious, be bad the power to prevent its pas
iage, by himply turning his face toward
Marri-burg (instead of Philadelphia) and
dUclo-e the. whole thing to the Senate.
But did he do that? Alas do! He pock
eted the bribe be "TOOK THE MONEY,'
and th n proelnims his shame to tbe pub
lie. JLuzernc Union.
