ced sinking, and every effort to save the
boat proved unavailing. There was a
heavy freight on board, which by pcrse-
vering industry was mostly, if not entirely,
put on shore and in lighters in good order,
when the boat careened on the water side
and struck bottom.
About 4 o'clock on Sunday evening,
owing to the rushing current and the al
most incessant arrival of steamers at our
landing, the wharf boat parted her fasten-
ing; swung round and grounded, few
moments, On the rock bound shore below
the ferry. A new impetus was soon given
her by the current, and when last seen
she was making the quick time Of the
current for the Gulf of Mexico.

WHY NANKEEN WENT OUT OF FASHION.
This reminds me Of foolish ;nterfer.
ence of Louis XVI. in a matter of dress.
In the days Of our grandfathers there was
nothing so fashionable for summer wear as
nankeen. No gentleman would be seen
abroad or at home in a dress of which
this material did not 60 to the making of a
portion !. and as We ever fixed the fashion
on question Of male costume, the mode was
adopted in France, and English nankeens
threatened to drive all French manufacture
ed articles Of summer wear out of the mar.
ket. The King. however, surmounted the
difficulty; he ordered all the execsitioners
and their assistants 10 perform their terri
bic Office in no other dress but one of nan.
keen. This rendered the material infa.
nous )" and many man, who deserved to
be hanged, discarded the suit because a
similar one was worn by the man who did
the hanging. So Mrs. Turner, the poison
er, being executed in the reign of James
in yellow starched ruff, put to death the
fashion Of wearing them.

.,rrrERAr1oN OF GoLD.-The New
vo,k Register of last Friday says:


York Register of last Friday says:
.Only few days since a modern che
,n;,t took thousand dollars in gold eagles
and but them through crucible the next
aav be deposited the bullion in the assay
of;ce, and the day after received bar
marked $1,000"
The plain English Of this is" Some
o,ber metallic substance can be combined
With gold, and such combination will stand
,he assay Of our mints.'' The secret or
.cieuce Of doing this was discovered in
France, and communicated to this country
early last summer. The case cited above
!, only one OF repeated experiments made,
with like results, at the assay office in this
civ, and at the mint in Philadelphia. As
The same ASSAY tests are used in the Eu-
ropean minis, the same results would un.
doubtedly follow. Hence we irresistibly
come to the conclusion that operators,
bankers or bullion dealers, having their
headquarters in France, are engaged in
this appreciation Of the precious metals.
This, to our vision, solves the great 6nan-
cial mystery Of the premium paid for bull.
lion without running all parties engaged in
il. Although this alleged bullion will stand
the usual mint tests, yet it is quite certain
that time, sea, and other influences will
make their mark upon coin made of it.
The Register very tritely observes
"While old fogy chemists fill sinecure
Offices on fat salaries, modern chemists
.re playing such pranks as this"

GA1vAsrc Acrros IN THE EARTH

GALvANIc ACTION IN THE EARTH
An eminent London cutler, Mr.. Weiss,
having observed that steel seemed to be
much improved when it had become rusty
in the earth, and provided that the rust
was not factitiously produced by the appli.
cation Of acids, made the experiment Of
burying some razor-blades for nearly three
wears, and the result fully corresponded to
his expectation. The blades became
coated with rust, which had the appear.
ance Of having exuded from within, but
were not eroded, and the quality Of the
steel was decidedly improved. Analogy
led to the conclusion that the same might
hold good with respect to iron, under
similar circumstances. He accordingly
purchased fifteen tons with which the piles
Of Lcndon bridge had been shod. Each
shoe consists Of a small inverted pyramid,
with four straps, rising from the four sides
Of the base, which embraced and were
nailed 10 the pile the total length, from
the point which entered the ground to the
end Of the strap, being about sixteen
inches, and the weight about eight pounds.
The pyramidal extremities of the shoes
were found to be not much corroded, nor
indeed were the straps but the latter had
become extremely and beautifully sonor-
Qua. When manufactured the solid points
in question were convertible into very in.
ferior steel. also the bolts but the straps
produced steel Of ouequaled superiority.
