Ibs arms, which are painted at the head of his
coffin,prove that he was one of the Counts of Nas
sau , perhaps Count Lewis, who died Canon of
this CithedJ in 1542. Withrelped to the young
girl, hie appear, to nave belonged to a boule of
great importance. She is clothed in a robe of
gre^n taffeta, ornamented with riband. She has on
her head a crown of flowers. From her Shoulders
depend two chains, the rings of wnich, brats pain
lei black, are covered with glass flars, white and
blak. A hand placed on her neck, enriched with
a ruby, two precious ct offes fulpended to that hand,
a gold ring in each hand, with the letters of the
name of Jesus; all these circunidancts induce a be
lief that t: e young girl was a reltgieu/e. I hefe two
coffins appear to have been brought horn some
other place, and placed in this vault. Asthey arc

wretches who, in the time of terror, profaned so

“ Acting other lingular properties of Charcoal,
it has felly been discovered at Petersburg, that
all forts of glass vessels ^nd other nntenfils, may
be purifed from long retained smells and taints of
every kind, in the ealiett aad most perfect manner,
by rising them out well with chrcoal reduced to
a fine powder, after grosser impurities have been
Scoured off with sand and pot o flies— Iliat perlons
whole breath smells firong from a scorbutic dispo
sition of the gums, may at any time get perfect
ly rid of this disorder by rubbing them arid
walking out the mouth thoroughly with finely
powder Charcoal This, at the fame time, ren
ders the teeth beautifully white.
