CuR1oUs EFFECT ATTRIBUTED 10 SAF-
rRos.-A gentleman who lately crossed
the strait from Calais TO Dover, wore
upon his stomach a small bag of saffron.
On being asked the reason of this, be
said he did it to prevent sea sickness,
and that he became acquainted with
that beni6cent property of the vegeta-
Bile in the following manner: A mer-
camille man, who had invariably been IN
commoded with vomiting. during the
voyages which he was frequently under
the necessity of taking, one day pur-
chased about a pound of saffron, and
with a view of evading the heavy duty
imposed upon it. concealed it in his
shirt. During the passage he expert
enced no Inconvenience from sea sick
ness, although the sea was very rough.
The good effect in question be ascribed
to the saffron, and communicated his
coniectures to several others, who have
repeated the experiment with success.
From that time the narrator has never
gone on board g vessel without his SAT-
from pocket.

TRACES OF WATER IN THE MooN.-
Professor Philips, of England, in the
course of some remarks lately on the
Lunar Mountains observed that daily
experiments showed that the more their
telescope power was increased the less
circular appeared the lunar craters. and
the less smooth the surface of the moon.
All was sharp and irritated-a perfect
representation of its past history. On
the much mooted question as to there
being traces of the action of water on
the surface of the moon as now pre-
sented to us, at one time he believed
that there was no trace of water to be
seen, but be confessed that more recent
observations, particularly those made
with Lord Rosse's telescope, shook his
belief in that opinion.
