IN JANUARY 4, 1861. ETHNOLOGICAL SOCIETY. A numerous meeting of this society was held on Wednesday evening —Mr. Crawfurd, the president, in the chair—on which occasion ladies were for the first time admitted. Sir EDWARD BELCHER read a paper on the manu facture of stone hatchets and other works of art by the Esquimaux. The table was covered with about 100 specimens of the tools, arrow heads, and other implements and weapons used by the Esquimaux, which served to illustrate Sir E. Belcher's observations. They were collected by him principally during his voyages in the Blossom, in 1825-9, and in the at tempt to discover and succour Franklin's expedi tion. The Blossom proceeded first to Kamtschat ka to procure au interpreter from the Tchutchi Indians, and this visit enabled Sir E. Belcher to compare those tribes with the Esquimaux whom he afterwards visited; and the result of that com parison led him to perceive that there is a close con nection between those Indians, the Esquimaux of North America, and the natives along the shores of the Pacific. The Tchutchi he found far more accomplished than the other Indians, especially in music. They manufacture their own violins, and perform on them in a wonderful manner, imitating the sounds of various animals with great exactness. ' They are good buffoons and actors ; but in the useful arts they are much inferior to the Esqui• maux, and are not equal to them in intelligence. Sir Edward Belcher gave an interesting description of the habits and manners of the Esquimaux, particularly of those of Icy Cape, with whom he became best acquainted. Smoking is with them not merely a habit, but a superstition, and before they conclude any important business they inhale a quantity of tobacco-smoke, which they retain in their lungs till they become insensible. Their pipes are of the most diminutive size, not being more than one-eighth of an inch in diameter, and three-quarters of an inch long. A party of them being seated, and the pipe filed, the chief com mences by inhaling the smoke by deep and rapid inspirations, so as suddenly to exhaust the tobacco, and without allowing any smoke to escape. He then passes the pipe to the next one, and by throw ing himself on the ground on his face he becomes stupified for many minutes. Sir Edward observed that ho obtained great influence over these Indians, and so long as he could teach them anything useful they submitted implicitly to his com mands, and he had no doubt that if he had desired it they would have made him one of their chiefs. This disposition of the Esquimaux to associate with, and be instructed by white men confirmed him in the notion he had entertained that possibly some one or two of the crews of the Erebus and Terror may be now willingly living among them. The principal object of the paper was to notice the stone implements and weapons of the Esquimaux, those brought from Cape Liss burne mere particularly, as Sir Edward Belcher saw them manufactured from the stratum from which the flint was procured. Ile described tb e ins genious manner by which the Indians, after they had splintered the flint or chert to the form they required, ' gave a serrated edge to the stone, not by chipping with a hammier, but by means of a tool made for the purpose, by which the edge was formed on both sides like the teeth of a saw. The same process is adopted by the Indians of Mexican origin in Califor nia, by the natives of the Sandwich Islands, and in ' the North and South Pacific, in places 2,300 miles asunder. Among the many implements exhi- ' bited were planes for planing wood, ingeniously contrived for protecting the hand, drills ' and bows for drilling holes with them, h'.snamers and axes made of bone and stone, im;: s asi en fish for fishing, contrivances for catcking birds, and an instrument for straightP;Ang arrows by the agency of steam. 6teani ' he observed, is more or less employed by all tribes of North American Indians, but by none so extensively as by the Esquimaux, who employ it to bend their bows, and in various other ways. The figures and characsers with which many of their implements are ornamented are those of objects unknown to the Esquimaux, and resemble the figures employed in ornamentation in Peru and in Egypt. 'I he stone nephrite, which is used in the most valuable of the Esquimaux ornaments, and is much valued by them, is employed also in ornamenting the gods of China, of New Zealand, and Japan, though whence the Esqnimaux obtain it is unknown: The many ingenious instruments pos sessed by these people, each sale of which, exhibits fresh proofs of original invention and design, shows, Sir Edward Belcher observed, that they are capable of being civilised. An interesting discussion followed the reading of the paper, in which the President, Mr. J. Evans, Colonel Raw linson, Mr. H. Christie, Mr. M. Macki, Captain Snow, Dr. Hector, and Sir John Kay Shuttleworth took part. The meeting then adjourned to the 16th inst. two gases were used for making several brilliant experiments. Iron wire, sulphur, and phosphorus were in turn consumed in the oxygen, and gave forth a brilliant and dazzling light ; hydrogen burned quickly, but dully, at the mouth of the jar in which it was contained. The two were, in conclusion, mixed, and when a flame was intro duced into them exploded. At the next lecture the use of these combined elements when properly applied will be explained. LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.) EXTENSIVE CITY FAILURE.-IN RE DAUNT AND WILSON. This was the adjourned examination meeting in the matter of these bankrupts, who are described as of 37, Old Broad-street, City, bill brokers, dealers and chapman, lately trading as Daunt, Wilson, and Co. Mr. Linklater, for the assignees, applied that the ac3ount of Messrs. Hart Brothers, and Hayles (amounting to £75) might be paia out of the estate, and explained that the assignees had derived real and substantial benefit from the zeal and ability displayed by those gentlemen in tracing out the transactions of the bankrupts. Mr. Lawrence, instructed by Mr. Holmes (for the bank rupts), fully concurred in the observations of Mr. Link later, and observed that his clients were fully sensible of the great services rendered by the experienced accountants. The Commissioner at once made the order, and the bank rupts passed. POLICE INTELLFIENCE—(This Day). MARLBOROUGH-STREET. SHOPLIFTING AT A JEWELLER'S.--:Emma Pickard and Sarah Lane, two respectably-attired young females, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a gold watch and turquoise ring, the property of Thomas Dander Perry, jeweller, 131, Oxford-street. William 'Walters, shopman to Mr. Perry, said—Yester day afternoon, about a quarter before four, the prisoners came into the shop while I was serving a customer. They were attended to by a female till I had served the customer. They said they wanted a finger ring. After they had looked at a tray of rings a short time I missed one from the tray, and they then said none would suit them, and they were about to leave, but I called them back, and told them I had missed a ring. Having told Mr. Perry of it he ordered me to fetch a constable, and I did so. Pri soners said they knew nothing of it. The value of the ring was £1 17s. At the station, after the prisoners were charged and taken from the dock to be searched, the constable saw something glittering on the floor of the dock, which, on being picked up, by him, I found to be the missing ring, though much damaged. On this being told the prisoners they still denied all knowle ge of the ring. The constable who took the prisoners into custody said nothing was known of them. The prisoners said they were willing to pay for the ring, if prosecutor would take the money. Mr. Perry said he had asoertair ed they had been into another jeweller's before coming to him. Tho prisoners expressing a wish to have the easo settled at once, Mr. Tyrwhitt committed them for three months each, with hard labour. THAMES. ROBBING CHILDREN IN THE STREETS.—James John son, a dark sinister looking man, about 25 years of age, was brought before Mr.' Selfe, charged with stealing two over coats from two boys named Messer and Norrish. The boys were passing along the New , road, Whitechapel, a few days ago, each with an over coat on his arm, and the prisoner came up to them in a very great hurry, and said, here boys, here is a treat for you—go to No. 16, Simpson street, round the corner, and ask for some white mice and rabbits, there are plenty there ; and at the same time pulled the two coats from the boys. He also said' go to No. 16, the second turning, and ask for the white mice, rabbits, and all George's things. The children, who were taken by sur prise, immediately proceeded to the house in question, and could find neither white mice or rabbits. , On returning to the spot where they left the prisoner he was not to be found. The two coats were afterwards found in the possession of a pawnbroker,fwho produced them; and sail the prisoner had pawned them The prisoner pleaded guilty. Mr. Selfe—Guilty. Yes, there is no doubt of your guilt whatever. It is a most rascally kind of robbery to,accost poor children in the streets and steal their coats. Inspector Holloway, of the H division, said the prisoner was an old thief and a dangerous one, and lied been in penal servitude for four years for a felony. Mr. Solfe—Where is the officer to prove that ? Inspector Holloway—l don't know where to find the constable at present. Mr. Selfe—Then I shall convict the prisoner summarily, and sentence him to &ix months imprisonment and hard labour. I should have been better pleased if the boys had worn their coats—not carried them upon their arms. Mrs. Norxish, the mother of one of the boys, here said that Robert Messer took off his coat and her boy did the same. Mr. Selfe—Tell your boys to wear them in future. SP ORTIIV G INTELLIO EN CR.

Yellow Gal ROYAL INSTITUTION. The Christmas course of lectures by Professor Faraday on the " Chemical History of a Candle," have proved highly attractive on every occasion, and yesterday, when the fourth was delivered, the hall was as on former occasions crowded, a very large number of the audience consisting of juveniles, for whom the explanations of Mr. Fara day are more particularly intended. The professor has already explained, in the course of his first three lectures, that the flame of a candle is merely a shell of luminous particles, though when burning steadily it appears as a solid mass—of this fact ar, illnstratioß was given by holding a piece of par k er for a Moment in the centre of the flame, vihich sco':ched a ring in the upper surface of the par,er. Im mediately above the wick of a candle, when, a dark part is observed where the vapour which causes the luminosity of the flaw ) is collected before it is burned, and by means of a bent tube, one end of which was introduced. into the centre of the flame this vapour was drawn off and burned at the end some distance from the candle ; by the ap plication of the tube to the other parts of the flame the products were collected in the like manner, thus showing the different conditions of various portions of the flame; when the products just above the flame were collected and a lighted taper was intro duced into the vessel it was extinguished. With a view to the' exemplification of the principle on which the luminosity of the flame depends, the lecturer first exploded some gunpowder with which iron filings were mingled, the bright incandescence of the sparks produced illustrating the mode by which a jet of hydrogen gas, though of itself not luminous, becomes very brilliant when solid particles are introduced into it. In such cases the particles introduced may be merely ren dered incandescent without being consumed, as when lime is introduced into the flame of oxygen and hydrogen gases, by which means the lime or Drummond light is produced. In other cases it was shown that the particles underwent combus tion, as in the flame of a candle, by the combustion of the carbon of the tallow. To show the large quantity of carbon, or charcoal, contained in com bustible substances that afford the most light, some cotton dipped in turpentine was lighted ; the smoke arising therefrom, when burned in an open vess e l, i s most offensive, but when properly collected in a lamp made for the purpose burns beautifully and brightly. Amongst many other experiments, that of throwing lycopodium on a flame, and thus producing a bright flash, proved highly amusing to the youngsters who were present. The next stage in the chemical his tory of a candle to which the lecturer referred was the production of water by combustion ; pure water was produced from gas by the process of combus tion, and a pint of oil when fairly treated by this process was shown to produce a pint of water. In the like manner water was produced by placing a candle under a ladle cooled by having ice and salt placed:in its bowl. The expansion of water, when subjected to heat, was shown by putti ng sufficient water into a tin can to cover the bottom to a depth of half an inch, when, .by placing a spirit lamp under it, the can was filled with steam, the stop cock was closed to prevent the escape of the steam, and it was reconverted into water by suddenly being condensed, and a vacuum being produced, the can collapsed ; thus establishing the fact which Mr. Fara day had stated as to the expansion of water sub jected to heat. Cold was shown to have a similar effect. A small drop of water was put into a cast-iron bottle and screwed down. It was then frozen by artificial means; and although the iron was half an inch thick the bottle was burst by the pressure of the ice from within. The water produced from the lighted candle he explained was the product of the combined action of the air and the candle. The power, or rather the lightness, of hydrogen was shown in raising balloons, and the electric light was produced by means of a Voltaic battery with 40 sets of plates, The topics of the address yesterday were oxygen, the atmosphere, and hydrogen. Mr. Faraday said he had explained the existence of hydrogen in the water produced from the burning of a candle on the last occasion, and he now proposed to show that the water contained some other product. For the purpose of illustration he dissolved some copper shavings in sulphuric and nitric acid, and then placed two strips of platinum in the solution so produced ; to these the poles of the battery above slescribed were applied, and one of them at once became coated with copper, showing how, by the proper application of electro power, the reproduction of the metal took place. He then used the battery in like manner on water, and produced oxygen and hydrogen from it. These THE SEVERE FROST OF DECEMBER, 1861 (From the Aberdeen Journal.) The severity of the past week has been so gene rat over Scotland, and even its warmer sister, Eng land, that there is more than ordinary notice taken of that topic in every person's mouth—" the , weather." We may note that the mean average ' tempera tare of the corresponding period of the year during the, last 27 years (the period from which we have any data in this part of the country) was 37.89 deg. As will be seen in the record of the same for said period this season it was only 16.43 deg., con sequently it has been 21.46 deg. below the average ! We often consider even 8 or 10 deg. on such a period either below or above quite startling. It will be observed, the temperature on the night of Tuesday, 25th, was 12 deg. below zero ! Now we bad the same intensity of frost in February, 1838. J. P. Grant, Esq., of Rothiemurchus, in the winter of 1823, records that the minimum or lowest tem perature was 15 deg. below zero (of Fahrenheit's scale.) We had one. of Casella's (London) thermometers placed on aboard on the surface of the •ground, in open park, in the policies of Castle Newe, on the night of the 25th of December, which , indicated a minimum temperature of 19 deg, under zero, or, adding 19 , t0 32 of the scale indicated, a tempera ture of 51 deg. under the point at which water freezes ! Such, perhaps, has not occurred for sixty years, at least. LETTERS AND LET TER _,WRITING. (From the Rome Journal.) The art of Writing a re fly good letter ranks unquestion ably amongst the most valuable accomplishments of woman, and next to that of-conversing well. "In both cases the first is common-place,- because 'Whatever thing to be avoided partakes of the nature of common-place is not only vulgar but ineffective. I know not howl can better define this term, so frequently used, and so little.understood, than by saying that common-place consists chiefly in _ s p ea ki ng , of things by their little qualities, rather ths.ntheir great.ones. Thus it is common-place — to speak of "religious persons as using cant, to peak of distinguished 'characters as well or, ill dressed,. and-to speak of the works of Shb.kspeare as being peculiar in their style. -It is also common-place to use those expressions of kindness, or sympathy, which custom has led us to expect as a matterof course... And .we. never feel this more than in cases of affliction or death; because there is a kind of set phraseology made use of on such occasions, which those who really feel would often be glad to vary, if they only knew how. It is ' commen-place to speak of some fact as recently discovered, to those who have long known it. But above all that is genuine in common place, the kind of flattery generally adopted by men, when they mean to address themselves pleasantly to women, • deserves the credit of Pre-eminence. Indeed, so deficient, for the most part, is this flattery, in point, originality, and adaptation, that I have known sensible women who felt more really flattered by the most humiliating truths, even plainly spy ken;, because such treatment imp Led a confi dence in their strength of mind , and good sense, in being able to bear it. Common-place letters are such as, but for, the direction, would ' have done as well for any oth e r indi vidual as the one to whom they are addressed. In descrip tion•especially,it is desirable to avoid common-place. A correspondent making the tour of the Lakes, tells you that, on such a day, she set off to the summit of Helvellyn ; that the first part of the ascent was steep and difficult, the latter more easy ; that the view from the summit was niag nificent,'extending over so many lakes, and so many other mountains ; and there ends the story; and well for l you it ' it ends there. &tench writers unfortunately often go on through a whole catalogue of beauties and solemnities, no single one of which they set before you in such a manner as to render it one whit more attractive, or indeed more,pecu liar in any of its features, than the king's highway. In the vain hope of avoiding common-place, some young writers have recourse to extravagant expressiOns when describing little things; a mode of writing which, besides being the medium of falsehood, leaves them in the uncomfortable pre dicament of having no language adequate to what is great. It is difficult to say what is ,the opposite of common-place, without giving lengthened quotations frorn : the best style of epistolary cOrresPondence, with Which the literature of Our country during 'the last century abounds. There is a quality both in writing- and conversation to which I can give no other name•than freshness, which is not-only oppo site in its nature and. street to common-place, but on which j. I believe depends more than half, the pleas u re and amuse ment we derive from the intercourse of mind with mind. Few persons possess this charm, because few are 'humble enough to suppose thatit would be any advantage to them ; and those who do are always in danger of losing it by writ ing too much. The letters'of a woman of moderate abilities and limited, sphere of observation, may possess thissgreat beauty; while those of a more highly. gifted. or accomplished writer may want it ; because it must ever depend upon a capability of ,receiving vivid impressions, combined with a certain degree ,ef simplicity of heart.. . • • • • VHS Airs MAREETS.
