~. o1raxbau.tible Bottle" Explained.


The "Inexhaustible Bottle" Explained.
Some of the illusions performed at the
theatres are of very complicated character,
I'D more than one ruse has to be contrived
- u;sead. or rather to lead the audience
tn think differently to what they intend.
Tricks within tricks, 'veels within Veels,"
as Sam Weller says, are worked to render
perfect one deception, and thus 1t Is with
the bottle trick. "Where on alrth does 1t
all come fromg' says Mrs. Darlington. My
dear madam, that's just where it is-you
are deceived in the least deceptive part OF
the trick. There is a good deal of decep-
ton. certainly, but not more than one-half
of what you fancy.
In the first place, there are the wine
glasses; supposing them to be filled, they
will not contain more than one-fourth of
the quantity of the usual glass. They are,
in fact. what heard our charwoman, Mrs.
Pops, call ''eight outs;'' that is, a gill will
fill eight of such glasses. Now wine
bottle holds nearly eight gills, making
sixty-four glasses. No wonder We hear the
question, "Where does it all come from ?"
when FIVE dozen and four glasses emanate
from the neck of one black bottle; and no
wonder said bottle is christened "Inex-
haustible." Secondly, suppose 1 have
bottle to hold quarter more than ordinary,
by having it made a trife larger in its
diameter, and doing away with the false
bottom which exists in all common bottles,
why then I could contrive to make it hold
no less than eighty Of the wizards bumpers!
Fancy conjurer having what wine mer-
chant has not-an honest bottle! You
won't believe it. Well, then, here you are
deceived again; for it is an honest bottle
that is used.
Now for the trick. An empty bottle is
brought forward, (the bottle J it is washed
out before the company and drained, to
show that it is both clean and empty; but
it wants wiping (of course) after being
wetted. So napkin is handed to the
magician, with which he wipes the bottle
as much after the fashion of waiter as he
can; but in this clumsy kind of napkin is
concealed weak preparation of spirits Of
wine, sugar, and water, in bladder; and
from this, in the face of the audience, he
fills the bottle without their knowing it.
The different kinds of liquors are produced
in the following manner: The glasses are
arranged on the tray in o definite position,
known to the operator; and into each glass
one drop of various favoring essences is
placed, such as the essence of brandy, port
or sherry wine, noyeau, lemonade, cloves,
peppermint, pineapple, sc. These being
filled up with the spirits of wine, according
to what is called for by the audience, COM
pletes the illusion of the ''Inexhaustible
Bottle

Letter from Hon. Henri Clan.

ASHLAND, 10th July, 1845.
Dear Sir: wish to express to you the qualification
derived on receiving the July number of the Mer-
chants Magazine and Commercial Review, from view
ing your portrait in the beginning, and from reading
your address to your friends ut the end of it. When
we feel under obligations to those who have contrib.
uted to our information and amusement, are nat
uraiiy DESTROYS to possess knowledge of them of
their appearance of the features of their counten-
ance and of the character and habits of their mind
which we can acquire. You have placed your mum,
erous readers lat least you have me, if may not
speak for them under those obligations and the
number Of your valuable work now before me- in
some degree, satisfies the desire to which have alu-
ded.
1 have become quite familiar with the Magazine
and Review, and have hesitation in expressing my
humble opinion that it is emnenty entitled to the
public regard and support 1t collects and arranges
In good order, large amount of valuable statistical
and other information, highly useful not only to the
merchant but to the statesman, to the cutvator of
the earth, to the manufacturer. to the mariner in
short to all classes of the busin and reading COM
munity.
Entertaining this opinion, I am glad that it has
been, and hope that it may continue to be- literally
patroniZed.
Offering you cordial assurances of my esteem and
regard, am truly your friend and obedient servant
freeman HUNT, esq. II. CLAY.
Extract Of Letter from Milliard Fillmore.
81 have read it (Merchant's Magazine) with a
good deal OF attention. and have hesitation in
ing that think it of the most valuable periodi-
seems quite indispensable, and to the statesman and
man OF general information almost equally desirable
1t is grand repository of useful facts and inorma-
ton, which can be found nowhere so we'll digested
and so accessible in these numbers only regret
that do not own the whole work.
