apartment where the air is loaded with
noxious materials. A description Of il

various kinds of glass lamps--for burn.

with chloric either, and light the wick
In few minutes the object will be &C.

IMPoRTANT TREATY- Persia and the
United StateS.-We learn from the Ne W
York Herald that, shortly after Mr.
Marsh. our Minister at Constantinople,
arrived at his post. the Persian Ambas
sador at that Court, intimaled to him that
his master. the Schah, was anxious ia
mako a treaty Of amity and commerce
with the United States, and that he (the
ambassador) was ready to enter into ne.
gotiations for that purpose. with any one
duly empowered OIL our part.
Mr.. Marsh communicated this informa
liOn to Mr.. Clayton. who forthwith trans
mitted to Mr.. NJ. the requisite instruc
,ions and powers; and accordingly the
last arrival from Europe brought home a
treaty with Persia, made in conformity
with those instructions, in which the U
s. is placed on a footing with the most
favored nations.
The ratification Of this treaty by the
Senate, may reasonably be expected .and
the United States will then send a Min.
lister to the Court of Persia. 1t will open
up q valuable trade between the two
countries. which will doubtless prove
mutually beneficial. 1t ought, at any
rate, be the means of reducing the price
Of somo Of the costly Persian articles o.
export. aud the Herald is of the opinion
thar it will open wide market for oul
manufactures and npricnlinrnl nrnilncia
