INVENTIONS.

INVENTIONS.
Having accidentally come across
the dates Of the following inventions,
we did not know that we could make
a better use Of them than to pass
them over to fill some vacant corner
in our paper. They may be of some
convenience to our readers for refer
ence:
Glass windows were first used in / $50
Chimneys in houses 1896
Lead pipes for conveying water 1852
Tallow candles for lights 1890
Spectacles invented by an Italian 1899
Paper first made from linen 1902
Wooden cloth first made in Eng
land 1881
Art of painting in oil coIors 1410
Printing invented 1440
Watches made in Germany 1477
Variation Of compass frstnoticed 1910
Pins first used in England 1913
Circulation of human blood first
discovered by Harvey 1919
First newspaper published 1850
First steam-engine invented 1649
First fire.engine invented 1868
First cotton planted in the Uni
ted States 1859
Steam-engine improved by Watt l767
Steam cottou.mill erected 1888
Stereotype printing invented in
Scotland 1885
Animal magnetism discovered
by Mesmer 1888
Sabbath school established in
Yorkshire, England 1889
electromagnetic telegraph in.
vented by Morse in 1882
Daguerreotype process invented 1889
LeMston Farmer y Mechanic.
The above summary of important
inventions and discoveries is believed
to be generally correct, and we repub-
fish it for the benefit Of our readers.
But at least one item is erroneous
that which attributes to 1850 the first
publication of newspaper. Long
before that time, about 1868, written
sheets were occasionally prepared, in
time of war, and read as political bull
letlns now are on election days.
Those who availed themselves of the
privilege Of hearing the news read
paid small coin called gagelta, from
which it is supposed the common
name of gazette is derived. The Gus
tom originated in Venice, and even
when a regular journal had been es-
tablished there, and the art of print
ing was well known, it long continued
to be distributed in manuscript.
However, the compiler Of the above
list probably intended printed news
papers. But it is well known that an
English newspaperwas begun in 1888,
at the epoch Of the Spanish Armada,
when the Spanish feet were in the
English channel. 1t was entitled
The English Mercurie, and several of
the earliest numbers may be seen in
the British Museum.
The history of journalism, from the
days of these brief and official an
ncuncements to the present REGULAR.
ty, enterprise, and influence of the
press, affords chapter of enlightened
progress we'll worthy the study Of In
quirers into the cause of our advance
ment in the arts and sciences; and it
will explain the gradual diffusion of
and correct principles Of
thought in morals, and the happy ex-
pansion of political and social blessings.

How're ESCAPE FROM A ROOM ErILEl

How're ESCAPE FROM A ROOM FILLEI
WITH SMoKE--It is not generally
understood, says the Buffalo Elk
press, that in case Of fire in house
the room becoming filed with smoke.
the best plan is to lie upon the floor,
where one is sure to find stratum Of
pure air. BY adopting this method
many have been enabled to crawl out
of the room, escaping suiiocation
Another mode Of precaution, said to
be attended with equal safety, when
caught in loom filed with smoke,
is to hold a handkerchief before the
mouth and nose, which will admit the
air in breathing and exclude the smoke.

HORRIBLE DEATH. The Chinese
Repository tells of a strange kind OF
death punishment which was infict-
ed on a Chinese criminal who had
committed a dreadful murder. He
was wound with cotton, saturated
with tallow, places being left for him
to breathe. He was then dipped
like a monster candle, until he pre-
sented a mass Of tallow. In this
way he was stuck on bis fathers grave.
lighted and kept burning until bis
body was consumed by slow degrees.

WATCH AND PRAY.

The pious and immaculate people
of Oberlin, Ohio, have for weeks held
FIVE o'clock break-o '-day meetings,
invoking aid from almighty God in
behalf of "Freedom and Fremont. "
On Monday last, the day before
the election, all business was sus.
pended, and the day was set apart
for especial prayer and fasting. The
ladies, dear creatures, who "part their
hair IN the middle" just like FIRE.
mont, were on their kerchy blenders,
too, signing and sobbing for "bleed-
ing Kansas.
All day without dinner, they went
to bed without supper, got up 10 the
morning savage and hungry. They
worked the wagons, sweat the mig
gers, and swept the country, as they
supposed, not alone by their own eff.
forts, but by the aid of Him they
hao so long, so early and SO ardently
invoked.
The night came, the polls closed,
and thanks were returned to Cod
