The Safety Lamp,

The newspapers furnish such frequent
accounts Of shocking accidents from the
explosion of camphene lamps that we
were very glad to see announced lately,
under the endorsement of Professor Sill
LIMAN and other eminent scientific gen.
tlemen, an invention promising complete
protecttaA against accidents from this
cheap and really valuable Illuminating
fluid.
The invention referred to is by Mr..
JOHN NEWELL, of Boston. ItisSimply the
ingenious application of Sir HUMPHREY
DAVIS beautiful idea of the safety lamp
that is, the employment of wire gauze,
both to the lamp and the supply-can, in
such a manner as to prevent the least
chance of accident. 1t is unnecessary to
enter into minute description of this val
liable contrivance. 1t will be sufficient
for US to say, that We have lately had an
opportunity to examine Mr.. NEWELL s
Invention, and to see various experiments
tried to set the fluid in the can and in the
lamp on fire, by external fame envelop.
| ing both, and we can confidently recon.
mended it as complete safeguard a
gainst ignorance or carelcSSaacSS. So per
feet is the invention that the lamp may
be replenished with safety while the wicl
is burning; the cap of it may be taker
of, and the mouth enveloped in burning
fluid, yet the contents of the lamp remair
entirely safe; and stream of burning
fluid may be poured from The spout o
the can without danger to the contents O
the can.
We 90 into these particulars entirely
with view to persuade persons who burr
what is called eiheriaI oil (Which as &
| lamp oil has several advantages) to adopt
this cheap and effectual protection against
the sad accidents which must inevitably
happen without it.

Not Easily OIercrOW1d.

A miller at Cape Elizabeth, Maine,
few days since, saw two crows light upon
the mill pond. One got firm ooting up
on a cake of ice, but the Othe, less judi
cious in the selection of bis lalding place,
pitched into some pulpy snow from which
he found it impossible to exricate him
self. Crow No. immediaely came to
the rescue, and tried to pusl him out of
the sorape. Finding, bowgery that this
was impossible, he stopped cooking his
head one side in apparentl knowing de-
liberation, then chatted Dr. moment
with his unfortunate comsde, and few
off. The miller thought le would watch
the denouoment. In aboit ten minutes
crow No. returned with two others
These three put their hesds together in
consultation, flew round aeir imprisoned
brother and examined hs condition, and
then by a joint effort raised him up and
stood him upon the ice. This being ac-
complished, they rubbed against him to,
warm him, brushed the frozen snow from
his wings, and finally al deprated togeth-
er-the saved crow beng in the centre
of the others, as though it was still neces-
saTy to watch over his welfare.

MiSmanagement Of the Delaware
Division,

How our public works are managed by
the present Board of Canal Commission.
ers, is fully illustrated in the following
article, which we copy from the I" Easton
Argus, "a locofoco paper, of Thursday
last, the 2Sth ult. 1t will clearly demon
strate to those who take the trouble to
read it:
Notwithstanding the repeated assuran-
ces of the officers having control of the
Delaware Division, that u teac days would
put the canal in navigable order, it is not
yet ready and from appearances will not
be until the boating season is half over.
Here we are within very few days OF
the Ist of May and the first boat has
yet to pass. We but represent the feelings
of the whole community when we say that
it is an outrageous shame that this canal,
the best line Of our public improvements,
should be SO wretchedly managed. 1t
should have been ready for navigation two
months ago--andifthe contractor who built
new Locks at Uhlersyille and New Hope,
had done his work properly. and with
any degree of energy, it would have been
open and the loss and Inconvenience the
State and the community are now sub
iected to, would have been avoided. There
is no excuses for this delay-it is wrong
and uniustifable On thethe Delaware
and Raritan Canal, dozen new Locks
we're deepened during thewinter, and
yet it has been in navigable order
weeks ago. The State is now sustaining
loss of at least $1,000 a day--the
business affairs of this whole section
of country are deranged and confused,
and thousands of poor boatmen are thrown
out of employment half the summer-all,
in consequence of the miserable manner
in which this canal is controlled by those
having it in charge.
We doubt whether bigger set of ras-
Gals can be found in the Union than the
vultures who are constantly preying on
the public works of Pennsylvania. They
have spread over the Commonwealth like
so many highway robbers, plundering
and stealing wherever opportunity offers,
and are not unfrequently larticcpS GRIM
iniS with men whom the people elected to
protect their interests and guard their
Treasury. Honest and responsible men
enough could have been found in this vi
cinity to make these improvements on
the Delaware Division, in ample time to
have had the canal open at the usual
time, but contrary course was pursued
and the business interests of this whole
section must suffer in consequence. The
Canal had far better be sold at once,
than to have this pluudering system con-
tinued

The Exodus to the Far West.

There is a vast emigration to Oregon
and California principally to the latter
State) the present season from the North
western States. The Illinois State Reg.
lister says it is sure that Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois will send as many beyond
the mountains this year as in any previ'
Gus year, and we hear of 10 falling off il
any other quarters. The Register says
y new feature in this movement west
ward is seen this season. Hundreds ot
men who have made fortunes in Califor.
MIA and returned here during last fall
and summer are among those going out
most of them taking fine trains of wagons,
cows, mules, and horses in droves, near
ly all purchased by money obtained al
the mines. Thus we see that our people
who sell these products are sharing in
the profits of gold diging.'

The Pennsylvania Coal Campany has made

of It's last seasons business. The Delaware

Pet Rats i was astonshed on visiting the
houses of some of the inhabitants, to see a
large rat walking quietly about the room, and
crawling mp the masters legs in cool, ia
mliar manner. Instead of repulsing it, OF
evincing any alarm, he took it up in his hands,
and caressed it; and then learnt, for the first
time, to my utter astonishment, that 1t was a
custom prevalent in Bangkok to keep pet
rats, which are taken very young and careful
y reared Til they attain perfectly monstrous
size, from good and plentiful feeding. These
domestic rats are kept expressly to free the
house of other vermin of their own race, and
SO ferocious are they in the onslaughts they
make, that few Of the houses are ever annoy
cd by mice or rats.-NeaLe'S Residence in

Another Steamboat.

The Easton Argus of the 26th ult.
says:-We learn that Messrs. PETERS
and WERTs have purchased fine Steam
boat which they intend running in The
Delaware river from Easton to Milford
there to connect with the Trenton anG
Belvidere Railroad. This will be much
the most pleasant route-far better thar
to ride l6 miles in stages. We predict
that the Boat will do good business and
pay well Bring her along.
