SCRAPS FOR THE CURIOUs.-If tai
low candle be placed in gun and shot
at door, it will go through without sus-
tanning any injury; and if a musket ball
be hred into water, it will not only re-
bound, but be flattened as if fired against
a solid substance.
A musket ball may be fired through a
pane of glass, making the hole the
size Of the ball without cracking the
glass; if the glass be suspended by a
thread It will make no difference, and
the thread will not even vibrate.
Cork, if sunk two hundred feet in the
ocean, will not rise, on account of the

In the arctic regions, when the ther-
mometer is below zero, persons can con-
verse more than a mile distant. Dr.
Jameson asserts that he heard every
word ofa sermon at the distance of two
miles. We ourselves heard across a
water mile wide, on a still day, with
perfect distinctness, every word of a
mother talking to her child.

AGIcANTIc CH,MNEY.-Thousands of
people, residing within ten or dozen
miles of this city, have observed, for
few weeks past, the gradual rising Of
an immense chimney from among a
group of smaller ones, at the New Eng
land Glass Company's Factory, at East
Cambridge. The work has now reached
its contemplated altitude, and is undoubt-
edly the loftiest structure of the kind in
the United States, being ten feet higher
than the Bunker Hill M ,nument ITS
form is an octagon, and erected brick
upon a massive granite foundation of
36 feet in diameter. Its height is $50
feet; at the base of the brick work it
measures, from the angles, 25 feet in di-
ameter. There is chimney, closing at
the top, forming central Hue the entire
distance, of z feet diameter. Three
horizontal fues, from the furnaces, are
carried in beneath to the perpendicular
one, though so constructed that addition
al dues, If necessary, may be added -
Thus through the one gigantic cone, all
the smoke from the several furnaces OF
the establishment may be carried, WHICH
will render the group Of smaller ones use
less and they will therefore be demolished.
BY this grand project East Cambridge
will be relieved entirely Of the smok

THE DEBATE.

The length of the debate in the House of Dele
gates on the prescription of Messrs Heath and
Lawson, and the labour of preparing the report
leave us neither space nor opportunity to speak
for ourselves on one or two matters connected with
the subject We wished particularly to say some
thing of the extraordinary disregard of thepubllc
interests which is exhibited in the act of eecting
to the important office OF First Auditor, young
man almost wholly unknown to the Legislature, and
of whose qualifications for the post his presumed
willingness to forsake practice at the bar, for
salary of $4,000 in Richmond, does not speak very
auspiciously We would enquire, too, how it hap
pens that Mr.. Johnston is peculiarly recommended
by his youthful energies whilst DR.. Butler is pro-
claimed to have every essential requisite, although
he is sixty years of age? The latter gentleman,
we believe, was brought to the attention of the
Democrats of the Legislature by certain election
estimates he made in 1910, 1874 and l648. His
predictions proved to be remarkably accu-
rate on the first two occasions, but he was sadly
out in his reckoning in the last Presidential cam
pagn He then prophecied that Virginia would
go for Cass by 1000 majority, and the prophecy
Hoo m"uO Poie vi tho PialioiAi PioilutSntCu az
Lynchburg Gen. Cass's majority, however, was
only 1900. Therefore, we submit, that if the
Doctors election statistics did not entitle him to
Mr.. Lawson's office before he committed blum
der. they certainly did not afterwards.
Another view of the subject deserves public at
tention. The First Auditor and Treasurer are
most important State officers, as members of the
lection to the two gentlemen just elected that one
is from section of the State utterly opposed tothe
whole policy of internal improvement, and the
other from region having no interest in any i'm
portant work of the State and entirely tributary
the markets of other States Party considera-
tons, however, prevailed over all others in the
selection and we do not suppose that the probable
course of the nominees as to the Improvement po-
Icy of the State was once thought of by the De-
mocratc majority.

The following were the opinions Of three members

model OF the Monument to Washington
Adpice of Council,
Upon the paper submitted by the Governor in rela-

Aduice of Mr.. Patt0n-As it seems that the Mon

decidedly of opinion, that the equestrian one Of Mr.
Craw ford is the most suitable one for this location
M Wiley also advises the adoption of Mr.. Craw-
ford's model.
Mr., Daniels adpice.-I advise that the model of a
monument to Washington, by Mr., Crawford, be not
adopted because it does not seem TO conform with the
tenor and spirit OF the law under whicht is to be cree
ted which think, contemp an architectural monu-
ment not military in its character but such as NAV
suitably substitute that which was intended by the
Legislature be erected over the remains Of Washnu
ton, could they have been inferred near the Capitol
because the model in question presents attribute to the
military glory OF Washington merely, and not TO his
whole character-because it wants unity OF design, be-
ing commemorative not OF his character alone but Of
the character OF several ofhs contemporaries who are
yet TO be designated and because is to be of Brouze
and not Of granite or marble, and is, in my humble
opinion inferior in taste beauty and fitness other
