A Clearing House at Indianapo!is.

The indianapolis Journal of late date
says: The project of establishing Union
Bank, in indianapolis, in which all the Free
Banks will be stock holders, to act as a
clearing house for the protection of the is
sues of the Free Banks. has at last, we learn,
been determined upon. A meeting of the
frce-b bankers was held here few days since
anil preliminary steps taken for the cStab-
liShmcnt of the clearing house. The Union
Bank will act as q protector against bro
kers by exchanging currency for the Indi-
ana Free Banks when presented. 1t will
be the policy of this arrangement to reduce
the rates of exchange, to keep the issues OF
our banks at home, and resist the heretofore
practized policy of foreign bankers and
brokers in reference to our Free Banks
The arrangement cannot but bo productive
of good.

Singular Event.

On Saturday last, Mr. Samuel VI. Dock
um, at his furniture manufacture room in
Daniel street, emptici hair mattrass from
the sack. and rolling up the ticking (about
ten yardS) in compact form, placed it on
the top OF an old secretary, which had been
sent in for repairs. The later article was
laid against the side of his work bench,
and was slightly elevated above it. On
Monday morning, on entering the shop,
the ticking hal been entirely consumed by
fire, not single square inch &C il could be
found. In the peice of furniture on which
it was laid was hole burnt equal to a
square foot, and chsrred beyond, and in
the floor was place burnt of half an inch
in depth. The mystery could not he solved
until it was found that panorama lens on
pedestal, which had been sent in for re-
pairs, had been accidently left on the bench,
before the window, at just such distance as
to bring the focus of the sun at an early
hour in the morning, directly on the cloth.
As the shop was closed, there was no air
to produce blaze, and ii is probable that
it was smouldering for half the day at
least Had the building burnt down, the
suggestion that the fire might have origina-
ted in this way scarce any one would have
listened to. 1t is fortunate circumstance
that it is a rule of the shop to have all the
shavings cleared up every Saturday night,
as the observance of that rule propably
savsi the building. The escape is prov

The manufacture of this new metal, or

y soon be in use, as it is already in France.
for various articles of domestic economy
and all sorts of ornamentation, as it bears
a relation - gold similar to that of Ger
man silver to pure silver; like German sill
yer, it may be used in pure condition, or
as base of gold plating. 1t bears SO
strong a resemblance to gold that when
manufactured into fine articles, such as we
have been accustomed to see made only of
gold, we are at once convinced that the ar
ticle we are handling is really the pure met
al. yet it is made OF material that costs
only eighty cents a pound as it comes from
the furnace where the several metals Of its
composition have been refined into ingotS
The oreide is not a new metal-it is on
ly a new compound Of old metals, so re-
fined in the process as to have done away
with a great part Of their disposition to
oxidise, as it only furnishes in about the
same degree as silver, ami though ebuli-
ton takes place, if tested with nitric acid,
it does not leave black spot, so that it
may be actually cleaned with acids which
would destroy such metals as copper or
brass. We have examined the metal in
bars and sheets, prepared for the manufac-
ture Of various articles, and also in its man
ufactured state-in spoons, sugsr-tongs.
napkin rings, goblets, buttons, watch
chains, various articles of plain and chased
jewelry and case ornaments, and plates of
various thickness from tin foil to the six
teenth of an inch thick, combined with
gold, so as to show gold upon one side and
the oreide upon the other, and it was Ger
tainly very difficult to tell which was gold
and which was oreide. That it is an i'm
provement in the arts there can be no doubt;
and that it so much resembles gold as to
make it necessary for our Legislatures at
once to require, as in France, that all arti-
cles should be stamped "oreide' to prevent
great frauds, will probably be found out

Now, Madame Flourish was French

before, she made up brocade for Mrs Jones

to the tune Of ten dollars for making and
trimming it. However, SIT wasn't SO as
tonishing after all as my wife reasoned,
ssthat dress which was worth thirty dollars
should cost ten dollars to make it up," and
with this reflection consoled myself. So
when heard the proposal to take this other
dress to madume, argued, that if she charg-

three dollars, which struck me as not excess

the suggestion, but lighting cigar, sat
