Some account of this secret political
society, which became so notorious and
whe influence was so widely extended
in Iialv. France and elsewhere some
sixty years ago, may not be uninterest
ing. J he name is irom me luuiau w ru
rtirbJuajn literally, a charcoal burner.
About the year 1810, when the Neapo
litan Henublicans. alike opposed to the
UKiiriation of Murat and the rule of
KennnaiKl, tooic reiuge in me awu.zi
Mountains, they organized under the
liwdership or i.apoDianco, a caruonan
societv. adopting charcoal as a symbol
of purification, with the motto "Revenge
n im n the wol ves who devou r the lambs."
Iu lSH the little N'eajiolitan town of
I.aii-iaiio numbered as many as two
thousand carbonari, and all over the
Abruzzi new societies were formed,
whose political influence became 'so
marked that Prince Moliterni was dis
IKitched to them by Ferdinand, with a
View h securing meir fo-viwmuuu
, against the r rench.
But the carbonari, although their
unwillingness to bear any foreign yoke
had originally given rise to their asso
ciation, leaned more ana more loivaru
republicanism, and especially when the
expelled dynasty was reinstated upon
the throne" of Naples tlicv assumcd-aii
attitude of uncompromising hostility
against the monarchy. from thirty
thousand members the number of car-
Ixuiari all over Italy had been swelled,
in one month (March, 1820), to the
enormous tigure of seven Jiiinured
thousand, including many persons of
education and good family. The place
where thev assembled was called the
Ixirncca, or collier's hut; the surround
ing country was designated a rorest;
the interior of the baracca was called the
reudita, from the sale of coals whiflh col
liers are supposed to carry on in their
huts. Kach province contained a large
number of such harrache, or huts, and
the union of the different provincial
lints constituted "a Republic." The
growing influence of the order alarmed
the Conservative Governments of
Kurope, especially the B'rirbous, as
since 1H!I the carbonari had allied lit'Di
selves with French Republicans.
The trial of t lie Corsica n G nercno. who
in accordance with the decree of the
nltn eendiUi had stablied a tellow uiem

the Sciety,adiied to the exi-iti-nieiit. A
fresh impulse was given to the r rench
fraternity, and many .Republicans of
mark, among others i-ajayette, joined
the iiiAenii-Dt wlm adiitu the ritual
modification. The statutes o'' the French
Carbonari were most stringent: the
faintest whisper of the secrets of the
society to outsiders constiti ted treason
and was punishable with death. No
written communications were eruiitted
In 1S19 there were about tweutv thous
and carlonari in I'aris. Fr m Septem-
. Ijer l&iO to March 1S21, a separate com
mittee sat in I'aris on military affairs,
as the army contained a large number
of carbonari.
In 1S21 the Government was officially
informed that the boeictv existed in
twenty-five of the eighty-six depart
meuLs of France, and the "National
Congress" of the Carbonari, which had
its headquarters at I'aris, seemed for a
time omnipotent. All the insurrection
ary movements, from 1KT.) to 18:22, were
attributed to them. One of the cardinal
points of the French carbonari was to
make I'aris the jtoliticttl focus of the
world. After the July revolution ot 18.10
manv carlionari gave in their allegiance
to Louis I'hillipie; but at that time a
new society of the order, more radical
in its character, was founded by Biiona-
rotti uiion the theoricsof Balieuf, which
Testa, who was a prominent member,
expounded in his 1 rojectd line icepiin

to exist la I'aris at present, at least not
. under that name. .

In 1SU, a hungry pilot entered a New
York porter house on l'earl street,
where lunch as well as drink could be
obtained. Morrison, the keeper, had
nothing nut the beef ordered for the
next day's family dinner, in the shaie
or a sirloin roaung piece, and irom
this he offered the pilot a cut, which he
accepted. After ravenously devouring
it, he turned to his host, who was ex

After having finished his steaks and

to lie "cut off the roasting piece for the
future," and goon his comjtauious

loin steak," and Morrison was obliged
to instruct his butcher to cut Ins sirloin
into steaks for ids customers, and the
butcher, ordering his subordinates and
messengers, designated them as "jiorter
house steaks, and increasing custom
and extending repute soon established
the term now so common in all eating

Wljf n we consider the enormous, dis
tances which the astronomer has to
tienetrate, ere he can bring himself
within the range of observation of the
nearest even of the celestial lwxlies, and
when we think of the infinite depths
iK'vond, filled with untold wonders, it
is manifest that instruments of far
greater light-grasping and siKii-e-jieiie-Iratiug
power thau : we now jiossess
must be employed. Everything has
already been done by small instruments
which can be done, lhey are, many ot
them, of exquisite wcrkmsnship, and
admirable in their details; but they are
no more fit to give the revelations, and
lenetrate to the distances required than
a drinking-cup is to measure the Atlan
tic. What is now needed is instruments
of gigantic size and great erlection of
workmanship, wnich will give us some
specific and reliable information in re
gard to the solar system, and which will
oien up the inter-stellar spaces around
iu It can hardly be regarded as cred
itable to astronomical enterprise that
such a planet as the moon, only some
240,000 miles away from us, aud most
admirably planned for observation,
should lie so little known ; or that an
object the size of St. Paul's Cathedral
should lie seen only as a discernible
point on Iter surface; while of the con
ditions of life on such planets as Alar
and Venus we should be profoundly
ignorant, it remaining a debatable point
whether animal or vegetable life exists
on their surface at all. The reason
simply is, that the toys (as they must
soon come to be regarded) hitherto em
ployed in their observations are alto
gether inadequate to cope with the dis
tances they are removed from us. How
ever fine their quality, they cannot
bring these celestial bodies so near us
as to enable us to see them distinctly;
and our knowledge of them will never
be increased until we have instruments
which can. - Every astronomer knows
that with the increase of the size of
telescopes the difficulty of moving and
observing with them increases. But
the overcoming of such difficulties is
just the thing to be done, in order that
agronomical observation may advance
as it ought to do. There is no impos
sibility in the way, for, fortunately,
there is no limit to the size or perfec
tion of the telescope. .Manipulatory
difficulties may increaie, but the theory
of the instrument, Doth in Its reflecting
and refracting form, admits of an in
finite enlargement. Good Words.

Hear the author's description of a
gigantic monster called the Cetiosaurus,
which science proves to have once
inhabited the British seas, and another
extinct animal called the Megalosaurus:
"The Cetiosaurus was probably about
sixty feet long. This kin of monsters
was fumi-lied m ith a broad vertical tail,
capable of administering a terrific blow,
and the toes ot its webbed feet, proiior-
tioned in size to the prodigious bulk they
had to sustain, were armed with shari
claws, with which it fastened on the fish
and smaller reptiles constituting its lood
The Megalosaurus was another gigantic
reptile, which is supposed to have com
bined with the magnitude of the hippo
potamus the structural peculiarities of
the alligator. But the strangest of these
hideous creatures, in point of structure
and apearaiice, was the Pterodactyl, a
living reptile formed to subsist botli on
land and water. The size of the Ptero
dactyl is variously estimated, but ler-
haps the outstretched wings from the
extremity of the one to that of the other

apiear to have been of considerable
length, and adapted equally for walking
or swimming. 1 he neck was also long,
assimilating with a bird's; and the
wings, which dillered irom any organ
of flight now exi.-ting, jiossessed extra
ordinary power, and enabled this a nal
scourge to soar to incredible heights, and
thence fall like lightning on its prey.
After perusing this last quotation, it
affords a singular contrast to the student
of natural history to read of some of the
Infusoria, a class of animals so minute
as only to be seen through a microscope.
Among these, the Botifera, or wheel
insects, are so highly organized as to
Iiossess a mouth, a stomach,an intestine,
and a tail; while the neck, examined
through a powerful microscoiie, appears
to be luruished with eyes, aud anteriorly
it liears a most curious organ, the denti
culated edges of which vibrate in suc
cession, giving the whole memlier the
apjiearance of a wheel. Equally singu

In his "Enigmas of Life," Mr. Greg,
the well known English essayist, takes
the ground that bodily pain and disease
are not only compatible with, but may
directly contribute to the loftiest efforts
of the intellect, sometimes iiositively
enhancing its powers, that the effect of
some disorders and of certain sorts of
iiain u lion the nerves is to produce a
cerebral excitation, aud that the stimulus
thus communicated to the material or
gan of thought renders it for the time
capable of unusual effort. Mr. Greg
asserts that men under tlie stirring in
fluence of severe pain are capable of a
degree of imaginative and ratiocinative
brilliancy which astonishes themselves
and all who have known them ouly in
ordinary moods of comfort; torpid fac
ulties becoming vigorous and sparkling,
torgotteu knowledge being recovered,
and marvelous gleams of insight being
vouchsafed them. The wonderful elo
quence of Robert Hall is believed to
have been greatly owing to the stimu
lating influence of a terrible spinal
malady. Ir Conolly mentions a gen
tleman whose mental faculties never
reached their full power except under
the irritation of a blister. Such in
stances as these are regarded by Mr,

Science a the Farm. It was formerly
thought by many that if a man was
scientific" be was a little cracKeu, or
at least that be put on tne "flashy vest"
and "gaudy neckties " or knowledge to
make the show which his intellect was
not otherwise capable of. To a certain
extent, and with some, this was proba
bly true; but the "world moves," and
now it is kuAwn that science is "knowl
edge, learning, the comprehension or
understanding or truth or lacu oy me
mind." Wclxter.
Now, who is therj in tlie wide world
ho has more pressing need of "under
standing facts" than the farmer? The
man whose business it is to live by rais
ing food that others may live, should
know exactly what he is about. He
must explore his farm for "facts," and
when he finds one he should forthwith
cipher out iu entire significance.
lo live by any prolession, a man
must make some profit; a merchant is
very careful that each article he sells
yields something more than it cost. The
moment an article in his line won t pay
he discards it from his stock in trade.
He is a "scientific man" on the subject
of cost and profit. The manufacturer
is precisely the same ir an article won t
pay, he won't make it.
What is a farmer but a manufacturer
aud a merchant? He makes or produ
ces, and sells his produce. How olten
does he calculate before putting in a
cron what it is going to cost him, and
what it is likely to bring nitn: iwes
he ever con over the different modes of
producing his crops with a view to se
lecting that one which will be the
cheapest, and which will yield tlie
largest return ? w ny does ne not uo
these things? Because he is not "sci
entific," because he does not search for
truths or facts, and because ne wouiu
probably not understand them if he
found them. How then shall we make
every farmer a "scientific" man. He
must be taught to count the cost, 10 iook
for facts and to understand them, and
draw business conclusions from them
when go found.
There is but one way to do this : An
account must be kept in a book with
each crop as carefully and accurately
as if with an individual with whom he
has an open running account. By a
regular charge to each crop of the cost
of preparing the soil, the cost of seed,
cultivating, harvesting, and marketing,
and a credit of the actual sums received
therefor, he will arrive at facts, and if
some of them areof an astounding char
acter, his "understanding" will only be
the more lierfeet. He will instantly
become a "scientific farmer;" he will
discard some crops, or revise his mode
of producing them ; he will think more;
ne win guess less, anu ins pocseis in

Chamjing Seed. A change of seed in
agricultural operations is almost al
ways beneficial. Growing the same
crop in one locality, from the same seed
year after year, often teuds to deteriiv
ration. The advisability of this change
of seed from one locality to another is
well instanced in the oat crop, heed
erown in the cool ntmosphere or North
ern Vermont and Canada is found to
grow more luxuriantly when resown in
the Middle and Western States, and
uniformly turns out heavier - weight, to
the bushel. If the same seed is sown
every year in the latter States, without
new importation, the produce per acre
and weight per bushel gradually dete
riorate, the tanners ot iiermuua al
ways grow tlieir potatoes from Ameri
can seed, ami never from their own
seed. Hence they are able to attain a
remarkable success in uotato culture.
such as we never attain here. Vegeta
ble seeds should be changed frequently
aud obtained from localities reuiote
from the farms where sown. Tlie far
mers of England, who raise excellent
cereals, roots and grasses, are very par
ticular in the selection of seed, and pro
curing it from a foreign country, if pos
sible, and in steeoing it in liquid ma-
nure before sowing. In the north of
Ireland, where flax is grown exten
sively, the farmer? prefer seed brought
from Russia or Holland to that grown
by themselves, as they find the change
very beneficial. The finest bullxmsaud
tulKTons-rooted flowering plants are
annually imported into England, the
I'nited States, etc., from Holland aud
Germany; and the change is very bene
ficial for two or three years. Forest
tree seeds, obtained in tlie mountainsof
the Tyrol, germinate in other parts of
Europe with much greator vigor than
those of home growth. t.f..
Growth of Skort-huni George Ged
des in an article on feeding makes the
following remarks in the Country ,'
tlemnn: '
"I owned a short-horn bull that on
the day he was a jesir old weighed one
thousand pounds, having emptied his
stomach by a five mile walk, before
going on the scales, and no great enort
bad been made in feeding liuu to pro
duce great growth. ' I do not believe
that the most skillful feeding could
have put T.'sJ pounds on him the next
year, and I believe that food given the
first year of a life of a steer or heifer
returns fully twii-e as much gain to the
feeder as it would the second year of
the game animal's life. Why is this so?
Take the case of my bull, that at one
time weirhed 1,000 iioiinds. Jle had
the waste of that 1,000 imhiikIs to pro
vide for first, and after to add to iu If
we assume that 2lZ per cent per day of
his weight in good hay was required to
provide for this waste (and most au
thorities say 3 per cent,) then he must

pounds; this may be considered a per
petual tax on his flesh-making powers,
This may not be a full explanaiion, but
it is the best that I can give of the fact
that young animals pay much better
for reeding than old ones."
Oire of Honrs. The London horse
book says: All horses must not lie fed
in the same proportion, without regard
to their ages, their constitution and
their work; because the impropriety ot
such a practice is self-evident. Yet it
is constantly done, and is the basis of
diseases of every kind. '
Never use bad hay on account of the
cheapness, because there is no projier
nourishment in it.
Rack feeding is wasteful. Tlie better
plan is to feed with chojied hay, from
a manger, because the food is not then
thrown out, and is more easily chewed
and digested.
Sprinkle the hay with' wafer that has
salt dissolved in it, because it is pleas
ing to the animal's taste, and more
easily digested. A teaspoonful of salt
in a bucket of water is sufficient.
To cure a horse of bridle-breaking,
get a piece of bed-oord, four times the
length of the horse and double it in the
middle, and at the doubled end make a
loop, through which pass the animal's
tail. Then cross the cord o er his hack.
and pass both ends through the halter-
ring under his chin and tie both ends ol
the cord to the trough-ring through
which the halter strap plays, the end of
the halter being attached to a billet of
wood. Should the horse attempt to
pull back the strain will all be on the
root of his tail before the halter strap
will become tightened, and he will at
once step forward to avoid it. After so
fixing bun a lew Dmeg in the stable he
will abandon any such propensity,

Excommunicated Insects. Apropot of
the efforts in progress to destroy the
phylloxera and other insect scourges
iu "France, a writer in La Suture gives
a bit of information relative to the way
iu which such ix-sts nsed to be pro
ceeded against when Science, save so
far as it could be made to agree wun
theological dogmas, had no existence
for the world. In U:W. the Bishop of
Laon formally excommunicated all the
caterpillars aud field mice. In l-PH. the
grand vicars of Antnn commanded the
parish priests of their vicinity to en
join the weevils to cease their ravages,
and to excommunicate them. In 1 '".
the Grand Vicar of Valence cited the
caterpillars to appear before him for
trial, lie Kinuiy assigueu tueiu coun
sel for their defeuse, and, as they did
not annear. proceeded against and sen
tenced them, in contumaciam, to clear
out of his diocese, a command which
they probably obeyed.
During the seventeenth . century.
thirty-seven similar judgment, against
both insects and qnadrupens, were is
sued. One is on record.duriug the eigb

Pictorial Tile. A comnaritivcly new
mode of employing tiles for the fining

Simnson. who have decorated the m

picture is painted upon them in colors
suitable for firing. They aie then

A a A Ihm of Conner Adherent to Class,
An allov of Conner which will adhere
to glass or porce lain is made by mixing
from 31 to 30 parts ot copper in powuer,
(obtained by the reduction of the ox
ide of hydrogen or by the precipita
tion of the sulphate by zinc) witu sul
phuric acid and then with T parts of
mercury. The mixture is triturated
and mingled with care. The acid is
removed by washing in hot water, and
the mass allowed to dry. At the end
of 10 or 13 hours, the latter becomes
quite hard and susceptible of a tine
polisu. vn neaiing it nien, uui

Metal Class. Another hard glass, to
which the above name has been given
has been produced at Count Solni's
works, near Buntzlau. Germany. Th e
test withstood appear to be-afiout the
same an those to which the Bastie glass
was subjected, with the exception, how
ever, that the metal glass is indifferent
to cold water when higluy heated. 1 he
Bastie glass breaks under similar con
ditions. The treatment to which the
glass is snbjected in the Dew process is
not made public ; but it is probably,
like the Bastie method, a system of an
nealing. ) .
Detection of Picric Acid in Eeer.Yot
this purpose, Brunner recommends
acidulating the beer with hydrochloric
acid, and plunging therein a fragment
of woolen thread, and digesting the
same in a bain marie. After the thread
is removed, it is heated with s solution
of ammonia. The latter is filtered,
evaporated in a 1ain marie to small vol
ume, and a fews' drops- of cyanide of
potassium are added. The presence of
0-015 grain of picric acid in a pint of
beer is determined by a red color being
produced, due to the formation of iso
purpnrate of potash. -
' 3ir Method of Prtecti no Adultera
tion of Fatty M.- Roth employs,
as a re-agent for the above, snlpbnric
acid at 40 deg. B. saturated with ni
trous vapors by causing nitric acid to
act upon large pieces of iron. At the
end of six or eight days, the solution
acquires a tine bluish green color, in
dicative of complete saturation. This
re-agent solidifies either-partially or
entirely the olein of non -siccative oils.
The purity of the oil - may thus be de
termined by noting the time which it
occupies in solidifying. - t
Boring Holes in Glass. An apparatus
has recently been devised in France by
which plates of glass may be safely
and rapidly pierced bv means of the

glass at points near one one another

fWmi for UnrL Pronle. A verr in
teresting lecture was delivered recently,
says the London Standard, at the St.
Giles' schools, by Mr. Bnckmaster, of
the Science and Art department ot toe
Snnth Kpnsinpton Museum, on the sub
ject of plain and cheap cookery. The
lecture was ueuvereu uiiua mo j'lTJ
sidency of the rector of the parish. Rev.
Canon Nisbet,and was largely attended
by the wives of working men, and by a
number of district visitors and ladies
connected with the Ladies' Sanitary
Association, which has promoted tne
movement. The lecturer had previously
prepared three excellent dishes, con
sisting of two soups and one stew. The
first soup had for its ingredients five
pennyworth of meat, one pennyworth
of bones, three-farthingswortn of car
rots, one halfpennyworth of onions,
and one halfpennyworth of herbs.
making a total ot two quarts ot savory
soup for seven pence three farthings.
The second had for its ingredients
drinniii?. onions, nea-tlour. potatoes.
ne egg, some parslev, and a pint of
milk. This furnished more man two
quarts for six-pence halfpenny. The
atTc vn a ranital dish, consisting of
odd scraps of meat for two-pence-half
penny, and vegetables ana nour at an
additional cost of two-pence : the whole
heinir served for four-Deuce-ualtpenuy.
The lecturer gave a clear statement of
the chemical value of the materials
nsed. as sunnlvine the various wants
ot the human frame, lie went mrougii
the whole process of making each dish
in the presence of his audience, insist
ing on the great importance of time for
the nrocess of simmering on the tire.
Time would not allow of the poor
women tasting the viands which they
had actually seen prepared, but they
were invited to partake of tlie duplicate
dishes, which had been on tlie tire, two
of them for four hours and one for one
hour, before the lecture. By the clean
sweep which was made of this food, it
seemed as if it were considered very
palatable. We are informed that it is
the intention of the rector of St. Giles'
to have similar lectures given from time
to time bv competent persons; aud if
so, it is confidently hoped that the poor
est inhabitants of St. Giles' may he
taught to furnish their families with
nutritious, palatable, aud cheap food.

What Cats are Worth. It is supposed
that hitherto the culinary value of cats

Our eastern friends may have long held
the monopoly, but the Parisians now
follow suit. According to Onlignani
there are a few cat butchers in that city
of gourmands who will give a good
price to the rag pickers for a pnss dead
or alive, nrovided it be freh aiud fat :
their sKtns are som tome miners, meir
fat to the frying shops and their flesh
to the low eating houses. A certain
amiable naturalist who has tasted al
most everything under the sun, says
that a well fed cat is superior to an
Ostein! rabbit. Prodigal as we are of
cat life, kittens were recently quoted
in the New Zealand price lists at from
ltojC:i each, and a grown rat from

is likewise oll'ered for sale on April 1 in

named Sam. He don't mean wrong, bat
he can't help it. Nature turned him
out with too mnch quicksilver in his
blood. Mrs. Milliss took Sam to church
last Sunday, and was ushered into a
pew in front ot a nervousoia way. wno

her Creator. As Sam's head didn't
reach above the back of the seat, be

heean to wobble about as usual. The
old lady endured it for some time with
Spartan fortitude, but when Sam,
having piled np three nymn dooks, a
New Testament, two catechisms, and
an old edition of Fox's Martyrs, ac
cidentally spilled them off the seat, she
leaned over to Mrs. Milliss and said :
"What I wish to remark, ma'am, is, that

It made Mrs. Milliss' patrician blood

Our neiirhliors. the Briggses. have had
trouble with their maid of all work.
She arrived from the country only last
month, and had never seen gas used in
bouses. The first night of her stay at
Bnggs' the family smelt gas strongly
after her retirement, and, upon going
to the roam, found that she had blown
the light out. Mrs. Briggs woke her,
and showed her how to turn it off
properly. But the next night fearing
to trust her, Mrs Briggs gave her a
candle to go to bed by. A boot midnight
Mrs Briggs woke, and, looking out. she
saw that the light was still burning
brightly in the girl s room, she went
np to ascertain what was the matter.
She found that tlie girl, after spending
an hour trying to extinguish the candle
by fumbling with the gas cock, was
now endeavoring to tnrn off the candle
by twisting the handle of the candle
stick. Couldn't Tell a Lie. it Quad relates
that as one of the dozen old women who
