PRESERVING FRESH MEAT.-A process has
been invented for the preservation of fresh
meat long enough for it to be transported from
South America and other parts of the world
where animal food is abundant, to those re.
gions where it is scarce and high This in
vention, il it will perform what is claimed for
it, will be of enormous service in cheapening
the price of meat, and of bringing it within
the reach of many thousands who seldom
taste it. The New York Post gives the fol-
lowing account of the process
''l1s process briefly stated, is to bone the
meat as far as practicable, plunge itinto ket.
tie of gelatine, at about the temperature of
boiling water, where it is held about six min
utes, and then hung up to dry. Forty eight
hours later it is again plunged, with its gel
atinous envelope, into a solution of tannin in
water, and then hung up to dry. The meat
thus prepared has been known to keep year
and upwards perfectly fresh and apparently
retaining all its original flavor. NJ. Mali, who
is the president of the company engaged in
the practical application of this discovery in
Paris, exhibited numerous specimens of pre-
srrved meats at the Paris Exhibition, which
attracted very general attention."

EXPERIMENTS WITH CAST IRoN.-The inter-
esting factis developed, by experiments of the
U. s. Ordnance Department, that iron, by
repeated fusion, up to a certain number of
times, is thereby greatly improved in strength.
Guns cast solidly. and those cast hollow,
through which water was made to circulate
after casting, showed an astonishing difference
in their relative strength, the difference being
IN favor OF the hollow east gun. when is at
tributed to the method of cooling-the solid
gun, contracting from the outside, exerting
strain upon the arrangement of the PARTICLES
of the metal in the same direction as the
strain of the discharges. The experiments
also showed that old castings are great deal
stronger than new Eight inch guns, proved
thirty days after being cast solid, stood but
" charges; one hundred days, 73I charges,
and SIX years. 2,5S2 charges. Thi, phenome
non is accounted for by supposing that the
Particles strained in the cooling re-adiust
themselves in the course of time to their new
position, and become free, or nearly so. These
are important facts for engineers

PENNSYLVANIA K. N. CouNcIL-It will be
recollected that at the Philadelphia K. N. Con-
vention of Feb last, there were two sets of dele
gates from Pennsyvania-one representing the
hunkers, who ratified all the dongs of the nation
al council of June, 1855, and the other the Edie
set, who represented the boilers from last year S
national council. These have maintained sepa.
rate organizations in Pennsylvania. The Edie
body met in State Council on Tuesday, to act on
the Philadelphia nominations. 1t appears that
resolutions indorsing Fillmore and denouncing
the Administration for repeating the Missouri
line were there passed by SO top Gov. Johns
ton and fourteen other delegates then withdrew,
and will soon issue an address against the fish
and flesh movement of the Edieites.

CHINA.-The New China Herald, with re-
gard TO the rebellion, states =
1.-The lmperialists had of late been getting
the worst of it; they had sustained defeat
at Chin Kiang-foo which they were besieg-
ing and had fallen back on Tantoo, where
they had formerly military camp. At Whoo-
hoo. on the banks of the Yang tsze keang,
upwards of hundred Imperialists had been
killed, amongst whom were some Shanghai
people, whose friends had received the intelli-
gence of their death. 1t is reported that the
people on the banks of the Yang tsze keang
allow their hair to grow. for fear of being
killed by the rebels, and that the mandarius
had ceased decapitatng them for this crime,
as the numbers were so great that it was fear
the whole country would rise in their defence
The Herald says the rebellion is now most
active i'll Keang re, to the south of the Po-
yang lake. 1t is reported that in the project
ure of Tseu- chow, between the Yang tsze-
keang and the Yellow rivers, seven cities have
been taken by set of rebels distinct from
those of Nankin.''

Missouri Compromise. Mr.. Buchanan did
not see them till they appeared in print. Dur
ing Mr.. Polk's administration, Mr.. Buchanan
proposed to extend the Missouri line to the
Pacitici but in 1850 he declared that the COM
promise measures superseded that line, which
construction led inevitably to the adoption of
the principles embodied in the Kauzas-Ne-
braska bill.
Mr. Fuller of Pennsylvania gave the Dem
ocratic journals of that state as the authority
for his assertion that Buchanan had reported
the Lancaster resolutions denunciatory OF the
Missouri Compromise. 1t was published IN
1852.
The House adopted the report of the Com
mittte of Conference on the Deficiency bill,
from which had been stricken an appropria-
ton of $500 900 for the continuation of the
Washington aqueduet.
Mr.. Evans depicted the fatal consequences
to our nationality which must result from the
continued agitation of the slavery question,
and invoked the South to stand firm in an un-
broken phaanx against the invaders of their
constitutional rights. Adjourned.

RAILROAD AcoIDENT-Yesterday afternoon,
as the accommodation train from this city, upon
the Boston and Worcester Railroad, was passing
through Newton, it came in contact with car
rage in witch gentleman and two ladies were
riding, and which, regardless of the warning
given, was driven directly upon the track, in
front of the approaching train. The carriage
was entirely demolished, and its inmates instant
ly killed, their bodies being mangled in the most
dreadful manner Our informant, who was pas
senger in the last train from Boston, was unable
to give their names.

THE OLD FoLKs.-The Old Folks Concert
takes place at the City Hall, tomorrow friday
evening. They have met with great success in
other places, and we are much mistaken if they
do not bring out large audience in this city
The press, in other places, is enthusiastic in their
behalf. Beard, of the Nashua Gazette, SAYS,
" their ancient tunes are sung in a style which
made tine old revolutionary blood Jingle to the
fingers ends" We trust they will be well re-
ceived in Worcester.
