Marine Hospital.

Among the many improvements now in
progress in and about our city, the Marine
Hospital appears to be attracting its share of
the attention of our citizens and the public.
Wewere informed by the Superintendent"
Hon. Jas. Lockhart, that the project is pro-
crossing as fast as circumstances will permit,
and judging from the crowd of contractors
and master builders which has thronged his
object examine the plans and specifications,
since the proposals were published in the
Journal, there can be but little doubt but the
letting will take place on the day advertised,
2Sth Of May. There are already several
contractors here from distance. one from
N. York city, who has spent several days ex-
aiming the working plans, and the facilities
for procuring building material. He is a
practical working man, and will undoubtedly
make close bid. Several of our own build
ers will also be applicants for the contract.
and we know no good reason why they can
not compete successfully with foreigners
The drawings repres ,nting the various ex-
ternal and internal views Of the edifice, exc
cuted by the supervising architect Of the
Treasury Department, Mr.. A. B. Young, are
rare specimens Of mechanical designs, and
reflect great credit upon the genius of their
author.
This Hospital, when completed, according
to the Architects dssigus, will be one Of the
most beautiful public buildings in the West
It's location is also one OF the most beautiful
that could have been selected on the Ohio
river.s Il will be one of the most ornaments
as well as useful improvements Of our city,.
Judge Lockhart, the superintendent of it
construction, is bestowing every attention Il
the subject necessary to facilitate the letting
at the time appointed.

PRESERVING fruit IN BOTTLES Straw
berries, raspberries, blackberrieS, cur
rants, peaches, in fact any fruit may be
preserved in air-tight bottles, so as to re-
tain its natural flavor, with but little la
Dor or expense. The following is an ex-
cellent mode:
Fiji the bottles quite full with fruit
not quite ripe; place them, with the corkS
put lightly into them, in copper with
cold water up to the necks, and gradually
raise the temperature Of the water to l60
degrees, and not exceeding l70 degrees
Fahr. Keep them at this temperature
half an hour: then take each out separ-
ately, and fillit up with boiling water from
a kettle to within an inch of the cork :
drive in the cork firmly, tie it over, and
dip it Immediately into bottle wax, and
lay the bottle down on its side, to keep
the cork always damp. To prevent fer
mentation, turn each bottle half round
twice or thrice a week for two or three
weeks; after that they will need no fur
ther care. The corks should be soaked
IN water two or three days before being
used"
Another mode is to tie the corks before
putting the bottles in the water. The
heat eXpels the air from the fruit. As
soon as the bottles are cool enough, apply
the sealing-wax. The secret consists in
exhausting the air from the bottles, and
making the corks air-tight.

SAGACITY OF GANDER.-A gentleman n
on whose veracity we can rely, related to
us the other day most singular circum-
stance, illustrative of extraordinary sa-
gacity in one of the feathered tribe. One
day last week gander was % on duty"
near the Canal Basin, in keeping guard
over flock of goslins, which led to a
rencontre between his roostership and the
gander. The contest, however, waSofshort
duration, for the gander seized the cock
by the neck and straightway few into
the canal, where he thrust his antagonist
under water, and there held him until he
was dead We have read of wondrous
instructive acts of dogs and horses, but
we question if any more summary pro-
ceeding was ever adopted by man or
beast to vanquish a foe than this.-D,n-
