The parochial officers found in the pocket of the coat which had been worn by the deceased a coarse leather pocket-book, containing six bank deposit re ceipts for sums amounting in the whole to £7OO. Mr. Edwin James, we are told, made his first appearance on the 11th, at the New York Marine Court, on a very trivial assault and battery case, " Alice Behan v. Patrick Riley." He is described as "a man of about 50 years of age, of ple asin g personal appearance, commanding figure, and what the ladies would call good-looking. has a clear voice and graceful manner. He dresses in. He the English style, and, in addressing the Court and jury, keeps his left hand under his coat tails--a habit occasioned by the practice who fthe endeavourlong silk g to relieve R t h em selves from the encumbrance was noticed that Mr. James, w frequently made use of th e ex o was for the defence, expression "my my hid." He told the jury that the plaintiff hadnoe i a o us n e of action, although her counsel regretted that the case was not brought into a higher court—the Supreme, the Superior, or the United States' Court--in w hi ch she could claim larger damages than in his " lord s hi p ' s court., . - • SEWER VENTIL .4 710 W. An experiment, costing about £l,OOO, has re ' cently been made by Dr. Letheby, the medical officer of health, and Mr. William Haywood, the engineer to the Commissi o ne rs of Sewers, with the Iview of testing the effects of the application of charcoal to the ventilating openings of the sewers in the City of London. It proceeded on the theory, maintained by eminent French and English city mists, that charcoal has the power of absorbing and oxydizing the miasms of organic decomposition when they are passed over it, with atmospheric air. A district was selected for the experiment in the eastern part of the city, comprising a space of about 59 acres, with abmit 1,700 houses, and 14,000 inha bitants, bounded by Bishopsgate-street on the west, from Cornhill to Widegate-street ; by Middlesex street and Somerset-street on the east, to the city boundary; and by the Minories and Leadenhall street to Cornhill on the South; the whole of these main thoroughfares being included in the area. This district was selected because •,:he sewers there have but a slight fall, and the currents in them are sluggish; because the area is densely populated, and has more than an average proportion of resi dent poor; and because the thoroughfares are mostly narrow, and are therefore disagreeably affected by the sewer gases which issue from the ventilators. The total length of sewers in the district is 25,587 feet, of which 2,018 feet are pines, and the remainder are constructed of brick, varying from 3ft. high by 2ft. wide to sft, high by 3ft. wide, internal dimen sions. Upon this length of sewer there are 104 air shafts, 265 gullies, 15 flushing shafts, 4 tanks, and 26 side entrances. The whole of the sewers were isolated as far as possible, so as to prevent air cur rents through thom eith er f rom or to the adjacent pas s ilig sewers. They were, theref ore , d ependent upon their own conditions for ventilation. Two mechanical arrangements were adopted for npply ing the charcoal—one beitif a large sieve ..wite compartments, the other a series of trays for holding the charcoal. Wood charcoal was used, broken into pieces the size of a filbert. The experi ment was commenced on the 14th of July, 1860, and has been continued more than eighteen months. During the summer and autumn of 1860 the temperature of the air was low and the rainfall great. As these had an influence in checking putrefaction and in scouring the sewers, Messrs. Letheby and Haywood were unable in that year to form an opinion of the efficacy of the filters; but in 1861, when the conditions of the atmosphere were more favourable for observation, they were able to gather sufficient facts for a report. They state they have satisfactorily proved the cow, plete deodorising power of the charcoal. Not only have there been no complaints from the public of stenches from the ventilating gratings, but they have proved by actual observation that the odour of the sewer gases is not perceptible when they have traversed the charcoal. Charcoal from the venti lators has been submitted to chemical exami nation after having been in action froth nine to twenty - months, yielding a variety of compounds of an exceedingly offensive odour. Trey state that if the ventilators could be so arranged an to keep the charcoal dry, it would not require renewal more frequently than once a year, but at present many of them have to be changed about once a month. They suggest that charcoal might be enclosed in the lower compart ments of the lampposts, or the ventilators placed against the sides of the houses. They next advert to the effect of the application of charcoal upon the general ventilation of the sewers themselves—a point of the highest importance. It is essential, they say, while lessening the escape of effluvium into the streets, that the dilution of the gases gene rated in the sewers should not be so lessened by the diminished supply of air as to render the atmos phere of the sewers dangerous to the men who work in them, and that the stench should not find its way more freely or in a more concentrated state into the interior of houses by the house drains and other wise than it already does. The inferences deduced from experiments on those points are that the currents of air in the sewers were somewhat inter fered with, and that the ventilation of the sewers was not so perfect as in other cases, but the differ ences in repect of temperature were extremely slight. On the other hand, there appeared to have been no appreciable effect on the condition of the air within the sewers, as far as the experience and observations of workmen have gone. The chymical condition of the internal atmosphere of the sewers, as proved by analyses, shows a pro portion of 79.96 per cent. of nitrogen, 19.51 of oxygen, and 0.53 of carbonic acid, with traces of ammonia, marsh gas, and sulphuretted hydro gen. They say there is, therefore, abundance of oxygen to maintain the functions of life. The cost ,of fitting up the 104 ventilating shafts was nearly £919, or at the rate of about £8 16s. Bd. per ventilator ; but, as an experiment is necessarily more costly than an established system, a much less sam may be taken as a fair average of the probable expense of extending the process to the whole city. From the experiments in question the general conclusions of Dr. Letheby and Mr. Haywood are, that dry charcoal in the presence of atmospheric air is a powerful means of destroying the mephitic gases and vapours of sewers and house-drains; that the charcoal filters may be used with efficacy in the course of the air channels from the drains and closets of houses, as well as in the ventilation of the public sewers ; that in applying the charcoal contrivances should be used which offer the least resistance to the free passage of the air ; and that the situation of the filters is best when the charcoal is protected from wet and is easily accessible.

The Prince profits by the opportunity to see all the curiosities of the city. He sleeps on board." A thousand Mormons, from the three northern countries of Europe, are just leaving for Utah, in America, by way of Hamburg.

FRENCII ACADEMY OF SCIENCES. —At the last sitting, M. Saint e-Claire Deville communicated a p a p er on a me thod he bad discovered for the artificial production of levyg©, a m ineral of the zeolith family, w hi c h abounds in. the island of Skye, also neeailirGe s methodlenarm,i ts informingofpotash,other wf aluminate of soda, in such proportions, that the quan tities of oxygen containet in the silica and alumina of these two salts may be to each other in the ratio of two to one. The solutions, separately introduced into a strong glass tube, became solid at the common temperature, while the tube, hermitically closed with the blow-pipe, is being shaken in order to effect the mixture. On being heated to 338 deg. Pahr., the substance is formed into a limpid liquor, which by mere decantation yields hexagonal crystals, similar to those of levyne, and having the same chemical composi tion. —M. Troost sent in a pa, er on the chemical equivalent of lithium. The two new metals recently found in the ores of lithino by spectral analysis might have led to the belief that the original determination of the equi valent of lithium might require correctitn. M. Troost, therefore, undertook the task of verification, and has found the equivalent to be 7, as announced years ago by M. Dumas.—M. Leverrier read a note on a most singu lar occurrence in astronomy, viz., the disappearance of a nebula discovered by Mr. Hind on the 11th Oct., 1852, near a star of the 10th magnitude.
