The present critical state of European affairs will
render these publications unusually interesting du-
ring the forthcoming year, They will occupy n
middle ground between the hastily written news
items crude speculations, and flying rumors of the

historian written after the living interest and
citement OF the great political events of the time
shall have passed away, 1t is 10 these Periodicals
that readers must look for the only really intelligi
ble and reliable history of current events and as
such, in addition to their wees,abNshed literary,
scientific, and theological character, urge them
the consideration of the public.
Arrangements are now permanently made for the
receipt of Early Sheets from the British Publishers
by which we are enabled to place all our Reprints
in the hands of subscribers, about as soon as they
can be furnished with the foreign copies Although
this involves a very large outlay on our part, we
shall continue to furnish the Periodicals at the

GUEPoWDER-FtREWo OF
THE ROCKET, CRACKER, &C.-The following
clear aud positive passage of an author called
Marcus Grecus, whose work in manuscript is
in the X yal Academy at Paris, entitled
"Liber lgnium." while it proves beyond
doubt that the ancients were acquainted with
gunpowder. also discusses the TACT, that the
Rocket and Cracker were among the earliest
forms in which it was exploded. The author,
describing several ways of enc ountering an
enemy by launching fire upon M among
others gives the following receipt:-"MIx to-
geIher one pound of live sulphur, two OF
charcoal OF loiLLotc. and tx of saltpetre; re-
dnce them to very fine powder in marble
mortar" II directs certain quantity Of
this to be put into a long, narrow, and lceLl
compacted c0Uer and so DISCHARGED into the
air. Here we have the description of a
rocket. The cover with which thunder is
initiated he represents as short, thick. but halt
filled, and strongly bound aoHk puck thread,
which is exactly the form of cracker. He
then treats OF different methc DIS OF preparing
the match, and low one squib may get fire
to another in the air by placing it enclose d
within it. This author is spoken OF by Mes
ne, an Arabian physician who furnished in
the beginning OF the ninth century. There
is resson TO believe that is the same OF
whom GaIen speaks.-[ Homes Table Book,
part =, C. 1872 ] Ebn- Fadhe, an Egyptian
geographer OF the thirteenth century, de-
scrbes snakes thus bodies in The form OF
scorpions, bound round and filled with nitrous
powder, glide along, making gentle noise;
then exploding, they tighten, as it were, and
burn.-[ More's Works, %. 90.
