J OSEPH BENTLEY AND SON, INVENTORS, PATENTEES, AND MANUFACTURERS OF CENTRAL FIRE, BREECH,-LOADING, AND REVOLVING GUNS, RIFLES, AND PISTOLS, 6, SOUTH CASTLE-STREET, (NEAR ST. GEORGE'S CHURCH). J. B. and S. having for many years past made it their study (regardless of labour and expense) to produce such Improve silents in firearms as shall combine Safety, Simplicity, and Quickness of Fire, and for which improvements Royal Letters Patent Were granted to them in 1837, 1844, 1851, 1852, 1853, and 1855. J. B. and S. beg to request that Sportsmen, before purchasing Guns for the approaching Season, will favour them with a visit, to inspect their prodnctir, which for workmanship, finish, and style cannot be excelled. J. B. and S. in particular beg to call the attention of the sporting world to their CentrA Fire Gun, which, after tan years' trial, proves itself to be one of the greatest improvements of the age. Amongst the many of its advantages may be enumerated the following, viz. :—The nipples are so protected and sheltered by the lockplates overhanging them that a ml3-fire is next to impossible. Less Recoil, whilst greater force is obtained by the flame of the cap being driven direct into the body or centre of the powder. Lastly, SAFETY. The cocks or hammers of ordinary guns have too frequently been caught by fences, briars, &c , and accidents of a fatal kind resulted ; this is entirely obviated hi the Central Fire Gnn, on account Of the position or formation of the cocks or hammers ; an inspection will convince any one of this important fact. It is admitted on all bands that Safety is the great desideratum in the sports of the field ; this the Central Fire Gun possesses to an eminent degree. J. B.

Her accommodations were unsurpassed, her fittings and decorations gorgeous, and altogether she was one of the finest and fas:est boats on the waters of Upper Canada. On Tuesday evening she returned from her usual trip from Bell Ewart, and was moored at her wharf at Barrie at abaut half-past seven o'clock. After Captain Bell saw her all rig'it and made secure, he went on shore to meet a committee to make ,arrangements fur a pleasure trip round the lake this week. Having com pleted this business he returned on board about half-past eleven o'clock. He walked round the decks, went below to see that the fires were extinguished, and that the crew were in their berths. Having found a'l right, he went again on deck, and returned to his state room. Shortly before one o'clock, one of the firemen had occasion to go on deck, when he was startled at perceiving flames issuing from the centre part of the vessel. He gave the alarm, and at the same thne noticed that the watchman was asleep at his post. Captain Ball rushed out of his rooms, and seeing what occurred, returned for a moment to ar range part of his dress. At this time the fire was rising with incredible fury, and almost instantly the centre part of the steamer became a mass of flames. The Captain and crew thus hastily alarmel made strenuous efforts to quench the fl mes, but all was entirely fruitless. The purser, Mr. T. Rolph, with great presence of mind went to his office, forced the drawer of his desk, and took out the cash, some 500 dollars, which was the only valuable saved. The flames had now obtained complete passession of the ill-fated vessel, and from stem to stern she was one sheet of fire. The brilliancy of the flames illuminated the surrounding shores with extraordinary splendour, whilst the great heat prevented the sl , ghtest assistance being rendered in saving any of the property on board. For the circumference of nearly a mile it was as bright as day, the showers of sparks thrown about rendering it a grand but melancholy scene. Danger was now apprehended that the wharf and adjoining buildings would take fire, and it was deemed judicious to cut the steamer adrift. This was done, and as she slowly receded into the bay she formed a picturesque sight. She drifted across until within about a quarter of a mile of the Railway Depot, when after be coming stationery, as it were, for a few minutes, she sank with a loud hissing noise. The Joseph C. Morrison was built at Bell Ewart some three Sears since at a cost of 65,000 dols., and apparently every precaution taken to guard against accident; yet she took fire and was con sumed.—Toronto Globe, August 16. PURIFYING SUGAR BY ALUMlNA.—Referring to our notice on page 355, this volume, 'Scientific American, in which we detail M. Mene's success in purifying and deco loutising sugar by the use of a preparation of alum, Dr. Fr. Gerau, of this city, gives the results of experiments tried some two years ago, and repeated since the appearance of our article, froba which it appears, ti:st, that sugar cannot be entirely decolourised even by the use of repeated quan tities of alumina; second, that the alumina is considerably more expensive and of less effect than the bane black or charcoal prepared from animal subs'ances which is usually employed ; and third, that while bone black may be re burnt. and used over again from thirty to fifty times, the preparations of alumina cannot be used but onc.e As the subject is one of great practical importance, we give the concluding portion of his letter in fall:—" I do not be lieve that, in practice , precipitate of alumina can so effec tually be freed from the alkali by washing, that it does not materially endanger the sugar in the act of crystalising— in other words, change it into grape sugar. Every chemist knows that even small quantities of alumina cannot be perfectly cleaned of the alkali eves by long-continued washing. Alumina may be used to more advantage for this purpose if, after mixing it with equal parts of bitu minous coal and clay, it is subjecled to a red heat, as is done with animal bones for animal charcoal. By this means an artificial bone black of equal power with the natural may be obtained, and one that, like it, is capa ble of being resuscitated, but which would be too ex pensive. Every substance that is very porous may be used for the same purpose. I have found precipitated phosphate of lime to be superior to any other. Car bonate of magnesia is also excellent for the same end ; but these materials become entirely ineffective when they are made red hot, before mixing them with the other ingredients. A great many soluble salts that melt at high temperatures are good ingredients for a like discolourising mixture, provided they do not become insoluble or otherwise decomposed by re-heating them with the bituminous coal in a manner objectionable to their use in sugar refining."—Scienttfw 41merican, J US T A R R IV E D, A LARGE STOCK OF EXTRA LIGHT VENTILATING H A T S, WEIGHING ONLY 3 ? - 1 , OUNCES, AT KNIBB'S, 33, OLD HAYMARKET, LIVERPOOL. • SELLING OFF A LARGE STOCK OF UPHOLSTERY AND CABINET FURNITURE, AT 18, ISLINGTON, WILLIAM TURNER informs his Friends and the Public generally, that he has for Sale a large assortment of first-class 'UPHOLSTERY and CABINET GOODS; and being about to make alterations for the enlargement of his Show Rooms, he is induced to offer his extensive stock of superior FURNITURE, &c., manufactured under his own superintendence, of well• seasoned materials, and good workmanship, at Reduced Prices, in order to effect a_ speedy clearance, and respectfully invites the attention and inspection of the public, •
