GLUE MADE WArsR PRoor.-A correspond
ent informs US, says the Albany Knickerbocker,
that he has succeeded in making glue perfectly
water proof, and having the property also of drying
immediately after application. His method, We
learn, is first to immerse common glue in cold wa
ter until it becomes perfectly soft, but yet retain
ing its original form, after which it is TO DO dissol
we'd in common lnseed oil, assisted by gentle heat
until it becomes entirely taken up by the latter,
after which it may be applied to substances for adj
hesion to each other IN the way common glue is
applied. 1t dries almost Immediately and water
will exert no action ON it, 1t is unnecessary to
state for how many valuable purposes in the arts
this application may be used. For cabinet makers
it is important, as mahogany veneers, when glued
by this substance will never fall off by exposure to
the atmosphere In ship building it will probably
answer valuable purpose, as it has infinitely
more tenaci,y than common glue, and becomes i'm
pervious to water.

FOR THE SPECTATOR.
DEMOCRATS OF AUGUSTA.

TO THE POLLS! TO THE POLLS,!
Now's your time to achieve glorious victory in
old Wing Augusta. We have two democratic
candidates in the field, whom you all know TO be
intelligent gentlemen and thorough going Demo
Gratis and no mistake about it, and the wings have
five candidates with the probability Of one or two
more-so that all you have to do is to be united,
go to the polls and vote for Baylor and Abney,
and victory will crown your efforts, such victory
a was never before known in the Old Dominion
You have already sapped the foundation of whg-
gerry in Augusta.--Elect democrats now and wing
gerry will soon fall to rise no more.
Democrats, 1 would again urge you to be united
Take warning by the dsaffections among the whigs
and let not humbuggery lead you asiray. Beware
Of differences among yourselves, for remember that
ofal sorts of quarrels family quarrels the bit
terest and the most difficult to settle; and yet they
are easily produced-they are often brought about
by the veriest humbugs imaginabIe-as for exam
pie the Spring canvass of 1916. OF course you
have not forgotten how beautifully you set the
wings into each others wool in that canvass. The
fact is, it most elegant quarrel and all caus-
cd by the white basis humbug. Now, my demo
cratic friends be watchful, and don't suffer your
selves to be drawn off from the support Of your
own men by any such Improbable questions as you
duped the Wings with two years ago. Remem-
Der, democrats of Augusta, that the whole Demo
cratic party Of Virginia feel deeply interested in
tnlS eleclioH ana III you come OIL Victorious lheir
joy will be unbounded yes, it will cause joy
throughout the Union--it will indeed be proud
day for old Augusta.
You go into this canvass, if you are true to your
selves, with every prospect of success. You can,
with proper exeriion, poll 700 votes, and it is not
probable that the Wing party, as at present organ
lied, can bring than 1900 voters TO the polls,
which, it is presumed, will be pretty equally divi-
ded among their five candidates. Were it not for
their differing among themselves, our chance would
be exceedingly doubtful, but they have not by any
means become reconced with each other since
their white basis quarrel,-a it is indeed hoped
they never will be- 1t is true a few of them now
say they fooled by that question, yet it is only
one here and there. The great mass of them still
wear the 'Eglorification spectacles," causing the
drest shavings to appear green to them as the
most verdent grass after an April shower. So you
need anticipate no danger upon that score and as
for ruling off any Of the Wing candidates by a
wing Convention, you may rest assured, my de-
moeratic friends, that cannot be accomplished, for
the gentlemen now in the field entirely too spir
tied to submit to any thing Of that sort.

Remarkable Propheey.-The New York Cour-
Ter des Etats Unis states remarkable fact. On
the death of Of The Marshals of the great pro-
cesson in that city, in 1880, in honor of the Three
Days Revolution, a sealed package was found a.
mong his papers, with this inscription: "To be
opened on occasion of the coming revolution in
France" When the tidings announcing that O.
ven, reached New York, this package was opened,
and found to contain the badges worn by the de-
ceased at the procession Of 1880, with detailed
description of the ceremony. On the interior of
the paper was written: "I'o serve on the occa-
sion Of the next revolution in France, which will
take place about lS47."
