SCIENCE AND ART.
Bank Note Engraving.

by the improved mode of engraving
bank note plates, n fiat piece Of steel, Of
the requisite Dimensions, is first prepared
and ON it the ongraycr cuts II yIgnottc, a
AFOREMENTIONED figure, or the general let
tcring. Each of these parts is engraved
ON IA separate piece, called II bed piece,
aud an impression is then taken upon n
roll, first softenrd for that purpose, and
then subsequently hardened. These seve-
raj hardened dies are afterwards trans
ferred to their appropriate places on the
plate to be- USED for printing the notes.
The ground work about the numerical
figures is produced by a machine called a
geometrical lathe. A plan to render
counterfeiting almost impossible, is to dis.
pcnsc with dies, aud have the entire face
Of the bill engraved ON the plate as Il unit
that is, to have the device made up Of
one connected iiguers or view, with the
words and denomina,ional figures so in-
tcrwoven and repeated that no imitation
of the same could be made with Il suffi-
cient degree of exactness.

Useful Inventions.

a washing machine, on an unique
plan, has been invented, the clothes being
placed in a Slated cylinder, made like a
squirrel cage, said cylinder having within
it at each end, an oblique corrugated
board, and when the cylinder %rotates, the
boards cause the clothes to tumble from
n end of the machine to the other, thus
assisting the cleansing. \ new printing
press has been brought to public notice.
1t consists in the employment of a rota-
ting and reciprocating cylinder, and also
in II peculiar linking device, and fly, which
catches the sheets as they issue from the
press, The machine is simple in its con.
Struction, can be afforded at II low cost
and is not liable to get out of repair.

Quality of Peat Gas.

For some time past, gas has been man.
ufactured from peat, in Paris. In mea-
surfing the comparative Illuminating pow
ers of coal and peat gas, the result has
been found to be in favor of peat, its
power being three hundred and forty-two,
while that of coal is one hundred. The
manufacture of peat gas is also described
as more simple than that of coal. The
peat, if put into an iron rotor heated to a
low red heat, affords Immediately a mix
ture of permanent gasses and vapors
which condense into an oleaginous liquid.
which W products separate on cooling.
The oil is subject to n new distillation
and resolved wholly into a permanent ga.
and hydrogen very richly carburretted.

Artificial stone.

The new artificial stone made by Mr..
Ralsome, the inventor, is formed by mix
ing the fluid SILICA of soda with sand and
other material, varying according to the
required result, and thus forming a kind
of thick paste, moulded readily into any
shape. Exposed for a time to the air,
this gradually hardens by evaporation of
part of the water, and when put into a
kiln, the water is more rapidly and COM
pletely given off, the result being a per-
fectly solid mass, the original particles of
sand being now cemented together by a
kind of glass, formed by the ~silicate Of
soda raised to a red heat.

full quarterly, the cart Journal" free.
Such an enterprise cannot fail to command
the approval and patronage of the public. It
has a basis as firm and pure as its objects are
beneficial and noble. There is no reason WHY

L
sugar Cane.

The New York Herald says: The
Chinese sugar-cane seed, distributed by
the Patent office last Spring, promises to
be n complete success at the North. A
package of seed was planted in Bucks CO.,
Pa, latitude 40 l-2 degrees North, and
has arrived at maturity. The maximum
height of the stock was ten feet, and the
product in grain much greater than any
cereal under cultivation. The stalk is
perfectly green after the seed has reached
maturity, and the sacharine principle is
then fully developed. The juice which is
most abundant, is very saccharine, quite
rs much so rs the variety of cane c~ulliva-
ted at the South. Whether the Juice
contains the same amount, of chrystaliza-
bic sugar, remains to be tested. Should
it be found equal to ordinary cane in that
respect, n new era in the agriculture of
the North will be inaugurated, and an inn
mense breadth of land be devoted to cul-
ture, as soon as the necessary seed can
be obtained, which will require another
year at least. The seed having been
distributed late in the Spring, which was
cold and backward, there is good reason
to believe that much planted did not reach
maturity. Should the plant fail, SO far aS
the manufacture of sugar is concerned,
yet its value as a forage crop cannot be
overestimated at the North. Cattle, hogs
and horses eat the entire stock with avidi-
~, aud no doubt would fatten rapidly on
il. The seed, which is small, has a thin
black hull which can be taken off, leaving
a fine white flour as the residue. We
have no means at present of estimating
the value of this flour as an article Of food;
but no doubt its merits will be fully inves-
tigated. The culture required for the
plant is similar TO that adopted for indian
corn when planted in rows, and the seed
should be put into the ground about the
same time. As it is a quick and strong
growing plant, ii should be well MANFRED.
In a former number of this paper we
noticed the receipt of a small quantity Of
Molasses, manufactured from cant grown
in our vicinity. From experiments made
here, and from the successful issue of the
trial in Bucks County, which we give
above, there is no doubt in our mind, tina.
the culture of this variety of cane can be
made a profitable business, and the North
ern States, will, in the opinion of many
in a short time be able to supply a portion
of that article to the consumers at home
We wish the gentlemen who have some
of the seed of this variety of cane, would
favor us with a small quantity, as there
has been several applications made to u,
for some to plant the coming Spring.

The foremost stands Of all the van,
All occupations leads. sir.
His cattle furnish beef enough,
Hi sheep, q heap Of wool, sir,
His children hearty and tough,
His Golfers alwaws full. sir.
His barns are large and well filled,
With hay, and corn, and rye, sir,
His orchard rich, his land well titled,
Both fruit and food supply sir.
His cellar in the autumn shows,
of roots, n hountcous store, sir,
He's well prepared for winters SHOWS
What could a man want more, sir?
His horses kept in first rate trim,
For wagon, chaise, or sleigh, sir,
Are ready now, to carry him
At any time of day, sir.
His cows are many, and the best
The country can afford, sir,
His hutter, cheese, and milk attest,
His barns have been well stored, sir.
His pigs are of the Suffolk sort,
You never hear them squcal, sir,
Because they never are kept short,
But filled with corn and meal, sir.
His hens are not of Shanghai sort,
He chooses not by size, sir,
An eggs an egg, and when 'tis bought
As large a coin supplies, sir.
His turkeys and his geese are fine,
OF both he has a store, sir.
In fact, the farmer has a mine
Richer than golden ore, sir.
His very bees are " busy" too,
And ill his hives with comb, sir,
They have as much as they can do,
To bring his honey home, sir.
Who would not choose the farmers lot |!
What though he has to work, sir,
Much haspiness by toll is got,
But who would like a shirk, sir?
There's land enough for all young men,
Our country Is a great one,
just pull up stakes and hasten then,
Where fortunes rich await one.
