Nv had the pleasure Of witnessing, a few DAYS
since, an interesting test trial Of various
weighing machines on exhibition ut the
Crystal Palace The trial was confined 10 the rela-
tive merits Of Fairbanks, the scales scales man
ufactured by Duryce Forsyth. Rochester n ",
ana newly patented scale manufactured at Yer
gennes VI. To test the real merit of the scales the
committee placed upon the platform of scale hav-
ing inc capacity Of six tons, weight Of 3ys lbs and
then removed the weight various parts Of the plat
form. With this weight one corner Of the Yer
gcnnes Scale, the beam indicated $500 lbs, when
placed on the opposite corner the beam indicated
only 3,s77 lbs, showing difference Of IL lbs and
when removed 70 the centre OF the PLATFORM the beam
showed ) 1887 lbs. request WAS then made that the
weight be again placed on the corner first tried
which was done, and the weight the beam now ind
Gated was 3,3s2 lbs showing difference of lh.
from the FIRST trial This variation is attributable
part TO the arrangement Of the platform upon the
bearings which forbds the possiblity of ,s giving
correct weight or agreeing with itself The test WAS
then applied to Fairbank Scale, and when the
weight was PLACED corner nf the platform tn.

The UsR or CHLoRoFoRM IN EDINBURGH.--
Prof. Simpson states, that during the last six
or seven years, few operations have been
performed in Edinburgh, either in hospital
or private practice, without the patient being
previously an9sthetized with chloroform.-
During that period one death had occurred
in the city, among the many thousands who
have been subjected to the use of ehloroform
But during the same six or seven year, among
the comparatively few operated upon there
without chloroform, three or four deaths
have taken place, either during or immedi-
ately after the surgical operation. This
statement, from such source, is of great
value.

- A Poem recently read by Park Benjamin in
Cincinnati contains many exteactsble things and We
transfer to e. selamns the following handsome hits
KEEP OUT OF DEBT.
Keep out of debt don Z owe single red,
And mover pcorn TO earn your daily bread.
That man alone feels indie pendence true
W no feels not notes or bilis are coming due;
He looks each man serenely in the face,
And all his days of life are days of grace.
He who in rags perambulates the streets,
And nothing owes to any man he meets,
Is independent. Let him pass along,
Gay ms the lark, aa,d merry his song.
Once more with final emphasis ! say,
Pay rs you go--don't 80 unless you pay.
ABOUT POEMS.
Why shou Id nv voice of solemn themes exhortf
When bards are funny you say, "Ihat's the sort
Poems should b. like bottled cdef-smart,
Lively, pungent brisk and TART
Taken nj once. not suffered to grow fiat
Stars round your head, not bricks WITHIN your hs.
Poems rehearsed are much ike women Dressed
To be admired, bat not to be caressed.
Love tints, wit jewels, must be viewed in haste
For those are rouge, and these appear like paste.
TO he effective is their end and aim,
To make a dash is all that others elaihl.
THE BACHELOR.
Ye selfish bachelors, what JOY ia yours
Or in the house strolling out Of doors
You learn not manners il domestic school
Your heads are combed not with three legged stool;
But free rs air to wander where you please,
A nd take alike your pleasure and your ease.
You are not tethered by woman's whims--
Ne woman : mandates your behavior trims;
You dread no female weather, foul or fair
None but yourself your neither garments wear,
You read in bed. you throw your things about,
No voice to scold, and 10 red lips TO rout
nor leased with help
You hear not small infantile cherubs yelp,
cherubs ungarmented with wings TO ny,
But whe mt night continually do cry,
Diminutive Macbeths that murder sleep.
From nights first fall to daylight earliest peep.
You are not startled by the jerking wire
At your front door--or cry of house fire.
You are a lodgcr and don care what burns
You are not plagued with family eoncerns-
If you re Diogenes you have no tub,
You board, or live promlscuous at your ciubi
No one rebukes YOU says not your dear wife.
How can you do ht your time of life"
