Interesting Experiments.
BY MAURICE y. MILLER.

MINIATURE FlHEwoRHS.-Prucure a clean
white glass bottle, holding pint; pour in
to it gill and half of water; then drop
in dram of phosphorus. Then hang up the
bottle in such a manner that you can place
under it lighted lamp. As soon as the wa
ter is warm, streams Of fire will dart from
the bottom of the watnr, resembling sky
rockets; some PARTICLES will adhere to the
sides of the glass representing stars, and
will display brilliant rays. These appear
ances will continue till the water begins to
simmer, when Immediately beautiful ,uro-
ra-borealis begins, and gradually ascends till
it collects to pointed flame then blow out
the lamp, and the point formed will rush
down, forming beautiful clouds of fire roll
ing over each other for some time; when
disappearing. beautiful hemisphere of stars
presents itself. After waiting minute or
two, light the lamp again, and the same
viii be performed over. The stars may be
increased by alternately lighting and blow
ing out the lamp few times. The liuuN
in the flask will serve for the same expert
mcpts several times.
INVISIBLE INk.-Procure of the druggist
half a dram Of nitrate OF silver Dissolve
it in half an ounce of rain water, and write
with this solution with a quill pen. The
writing will not be visible as long as the pa
per is k p. in the dark. bat on exposing i,
to the sun the letters will turn black, so tina,
they are perfectly visible. If the solution
be used for writing on cloth, the writing can
not be washed out, hence it is also an intel
IDLE ink.
GAs.-An exhibition of gas light can be
made in the following manner Procuee a
tobacco pipe with a long stem, and put into
the bowl small walnut, then cover the top
of the bowl with clay and let it dry. After
i, is dry, heat the bowl in fire, when
white gas will issue from the stem. This
may be lighted, and it will burn for some
time.

The sacred Eauner of Islam,

Rev. DR.. Schau!iler, for the last tyentr-
five years missionary at ConStlutinoplr, "a
the course of an address delivered on sun
day evening at Mr.. llogarth's church in
Brooklyn, illustrating the general belief
which prevails among the Turks that their
religion has closed its mission, stated ,h,
fact that the green coat of Moharnmcd,
which is the sacred banner OF MOnammed-
anism, had disappeared from Constantino-
pie. This article is believed by every trnc
Mohommedan to have been woven ia heaven.
and brought to Mohammed by the angel
Gabriel; and it is also an article OF belief
that when the cause of ISlansm is to ter
inmate. the angel will again descend and Ic.
take il to heaven. Ii has ever been regard
ed as the great sacred emblem, around
which cluster all the prayers Of the faithlu',
and without which all prayers would bc uu-
availing For centuries it has been guarded
with the greatest care in Il particular mosque
at Constantinople. When il was first re-
ported, last spring, that it had suddenly d..
appeared, the missionaries did not give n,
story much credit; but all doubt has since
been dispeled The hypothesis of the mis-
sionaries Is that the relic has been take
away by some of the more bigotel ecclesas-
ties, who are convinced that Constlntinop
is about to lose its character as a sacred 81 =
and become Chris,ianized; and that III
will probably, in due time, again bring the
relic to light in some Mohanmedan local. @
less exposed to Christian influence. H,s
the general belief Of the Mohammedan g.
Turkey is, that the disappearance is super
natural. and that it is another proof th.t
their religion will soon come to an en1.
Their Interpretation Of their sacred book,
it is well known, has long pointed 10 the
present period as that which is TO witness
that extraordinary event. Ore thug is ccr-
tain, that the sentiments Of the grea. bulk
of the Turkish Mohammedans towards the
Christian religion. as well ms of the Turkish
government itself, have undergone n most
marvellous change within the last few years.

CHEAP AND WARN COVERING FOR Poor AND
RIcH.-A correspondent of the New York
EreniRg Post, writing frow Washington Ci-
", 10th inst, thus relates his experience
with coverlid made of nen.papers:
Soon after the advent of chilly nights,
finding the extra covers too heavy, and re-
membering the suggestion of a year ago,
took off a weighty coverlid, and substituted
half a dozen copies of a popular weekly. |
never slept more pleasantly. lmentioned it
to some Of my acquaintances, who, on trial
of the past two weeks, pronounced it effect
ual. l use it on three beds in my house,
and as nothing can be cheaper, I feel autho-
rzed to recommend them for general use.
had the curiosity to weigh the newspapers in
use on my three beds, and the amount Of all
is three pounds only. The papers can be
spread loosely, overlapping one another, al
though, for convenience, have pasted the
edges together. How trifing is the cost.
and how easily obtained! \ pound or two
of old newspapers can be procured for four
cents pound, and il spread between two
light covers to retain them in their place,
will keep person comfortable, whether he
be poor or rich. The experiment can easily
be tried In the meantime, | attach my inl-
tials, authorizing you, if you think proper,
to place my name at the head of this com.

EXQUISITE JuGGLERY Y-fioudins little place

the first places Of amusement | visited in
Paris. f-as told that the man | saw per-

ceSsCr of his. Some OF his tricks were good
one in particular. He took a large empty
tin pan and filled it with water, he then
poured in some ground coffee: the coffee
mas made and served TO the audience. The
pan was again empty, when suddenly, in
presence Of all the spectators, the pan be-
came filled with earth. He informed the
audience that within ten minutes he could
cause to grow any flower that should be
called for. He held the pan in his hands so
as every one could see. Various flowers
were called for-tulip. rose, magnolia, pink,
daisy, buttercups; when the floral category

quested q carrot. - | said a flower" said
the magician, "a carrot is not a flower
" No matter, replied the gentleman, "if you
have the skill that the people of your black
art should have, you will furnish me a car
rot" | watched the divers flowers slowly
growing, first budding and then unfolding
their leaves. Each one plucked the flower
of his choosing, when the same pertinacious
gentleman disturbed the harmony by ask
ing. "Where's my carroty" The magician
looked puzzled, and hesitatingly replied, :"
i don't know" He had no sooner finish
ed speaking when an enormous carrot in
sprang from the earth and
was handed to the gentleman amidst great
laughter and applause. The flowers came
slowly at first and then quickly, and in such
profusion that almost every person carried
away fragrant boquet.-Cor. Boston Ga

A SPEcuLAroR.-A few days since, two
gentlemen, whose countenances betrayed
the fact that they were interested in the con
dition Of stocks, were conversing and stand
ing in Third street, near the corner Of
Dock. One was great speculator, develop
ing the plan of magnificent project; the
other dazzled capitalist, ready to snap at
the bait. He hesitated little, but was just
yielding, merely making few objections for
conscience's sake.
Directly there appeared in front of the
show window of Ayre's tobacco and cigar
establishment, a couple of newsboys, who
began an intense scrutiny Of the interior.
"By thunder! I'd like to smoke cents
worth of tObacco!"
"well," said the other, "buy cents
worth.
"Yes, but I aint got nary cent"
"Hold on, I've got two cents"
"That's the ticket! just the ticket-one
for the pipe, and one for the tobacco"
"Oh, yes but what am to do?"
"You? Oh. you can be the stockholder
and do the spi,tin'!"
TWAS a flash of light. The capitalist
thrust his hands into his pockets and fed.
The spcculator cast furious look at the two
newsboys, and turned down the street.
