How Machinery Increases Beneficial
Labor. d a s7a

About 6ve years ago, when sewing nachines
were beginning TO be introduced into this city,
some furious attacks were made npoR them BY
ignoran, and mock phianthrepiets, who pre-
tended 10 be anxionsly concerned for poor seam
stresses. They pictured the sad fate which
awaited these persons; ; told how the hard-carn-
ed bread was to be taken out Of their mouths BY
such capitalists Us could purchase and use such
machines, thereby dispensing with the labor of
needewomen, and thus bring them to want for
lack Of employment. Have such predictions
been fulfilled. We, who have for years care
fully watched the effects Of labor-saving ma
chinery upon society, knew that such ideas,
when uttered, were no better than The emaRa-
tons Of an idiots dream. trusted to few years'

operation in New York city alone; bot instead
OF these having thrown any industrious females
out Of employment, they have rather increased
the quantity Of work for them to do. We were
told few days since, BY one engaged some

that twenty stitches are now made on some
garments, for one that made FIVE years
ago-in short, that sewing machines had great

Thus coat Innings, which used to be made plain,
are now mostly elaborately worked, and finely
stitched, and it is the same with almost every
kind Of sewed work. The amount Of such

er ratio than the machines TO execute il. A
higher taste is now being gratlfed, and hund-
reds of women who used to ply the needle ear
ly and late with their fingers, for mere pit
tance, are now better remunerated for their la

nraby REDUCED. Ii is our opinion that the very
class-needle- e-women-respecting whom 50
much was al one lime said about being injured
by sewing machines, win be the most hene6ted.

The Gulf Stream.

Prof. A.,D. Bache, Superintendent of the
Coast Survey, in lecturing upon the subject of
the Gulf Stream, in New York, recently, said
that from observation, the accuracy Of which
was undoubted, it had been ascertained that
the bottom of the Atlantic ocean was traversed
by range of mountains similar to the chain
some distance back from the coast, and that
the Gulf Stream pursued its way over the tops
of these, and had an evident connection with
them. in the gorges Of these ranges were
found bands of cold water, evidently from the
polar regions, As far south as latitude 20
degs. the register indicates, at great depths,
water at only two degrees above the freezing
point. These polar, streams seemed to be
pursuing course from northeast to southwest,
and in directly contrary direction to the bands
Of warm water, which form the main feature
of the Cult Stream. Much difficulty was at
first experienced In procuring instruments ca

Density of Different Seas.

Surprise has been expressed that vessels
which 60 direct to Sebaslopul lake a smaller
cargo than if they were only 10 COLO Constan-
tinope, or that they diminish their cargo in The
latter port before entering the Black Sea-
The reason is this The density Of The water
of different seas is more or less considerable,
and the vessels which sail in them sink in the
wafer more or less, according 10 that density.
The density arises from the quantity Of salt
contained ia the water, and consequently, the
salter The sea isS the less vessel enters it,
As, too The more sail vessel carries, the deep
er she penetratss the wafer, il follows that The
more the water is salt the greater is the qnan-
iiiy of sail that can be carried. Now the
Black Sea being sixteen times less salt Than
Mediterranean, a vessel which leaves T0ulon
or Marseiles for Sebaslopol must take small
er cargo Than that which only goes To Conslan-
tinople. and still smaller one if it is TO enter
the Sea Of Azof, which is eighteen times less
salt than The Mediterranean. Ii is known that
the Mediterranean is quite as salt as the At
lanlic. once more than the Adriatlc, five iimes
more than the Caspian Sea, twelve times more
than The Ionian Sea. and seventeen times more
than the Sea of Marmora. The Dead Sea
contains more salt than any other sea it is az

Amos LaWrence's Pocket-Book.

We find in stray newspaper the following
good story, but know not where il originated,
and consequently cannot give the proper credit.
Ii is too good 10 be lost:
The publication of the Diary uf Amos Inv
renee naturally recalls many anecdotes of his
life, and one of certain remarkable packet
book that belongs to him deserves to be repeat
ed We will try 10 relate the fact ia the way
il was once told by Father Taylor of Bosion.--
On the occasion of an anniversary celebration
in that city, large number oforlhodux clergy
men were seated on the platform, and among
them was the well-known preacher Of the sea-
men, A remark had been dropped by one Of
the speakers, implying doubt whether any
Unitarian could 60 To heaven Father Tay-
lur fred up al the word. and sprnging to his
feet he exclaimed, 10 his ndescribable manner,
No Unitarian go to heaven Mr.. Chairman,
| have word TO say about that. have this
day seen Mr.. Amos Lawrence's pockei-book.
1t is such pockei-book was never made be-
fore. On one fold of it is printed, in gilt let
ters. What shall it profit man if he gain The
whole world and lose his own soull' You
open another fold and read. The gold is mine,
saith the Lord Of Hosts On still another fold
is printed, He that givelh To the poor, lendeth
to the Lord / asked MIR. Lawrence what all
this was for. He told me that he remembered
that, as men grew old, they sometimes grew
selfish, and every time he looked 10 his money
he wanted to be reminded of The great princi-
Piles Of the Gospel, by which he ought to hold
and use his worldly goods aud therefore he
kept money in each of those folds Of his pocket
book for all good uses which Divine Provi-
dence might suggest Nav. Mr.. Chairman,
what are you going TO do with whu
carries such as book as that in his pocket =
Do you mean to send him 10 helli Do you
think the devil and his angels would permit "a
man with principles like these 10 enter his do.
minionst Why, sir, such doctrines carried tc
hell would make an uproar and revolution there
more terrible than ever before known, and il
never conld be easy ill he was cast out / ask
again, what do you mean to do with him Il
Father Taylor's question was not answered !
but whatever trouble the case he supposed might
create in the locality he named, certain il is
that his own speech made quite sensation on
The platform.
