A REVOLUTIONARY LApY.-Now and then we have
CLEAN of the old fire of Joan of Are or Moll
Pitcher, or the Maid of Saragossa and a notable
instance Of this Is furnished In the case of Miss
White, young English woman who was, at last
accounts, a prisoner Of State at Genoa This lady,
itappears, has been inspired with most romantic
admiration of Mazzini, the great Italian Republi-
leader. She was, it is believed, the chief inst
gator of the recent unfortunate revolutionary at
tempt, having raised money in England and Italy
TO purchase arms and munitions. The subscrip-
tuns that she obtained in Genoa alone are said to
have sufced for the purchase of ten thousand mus
kets. 1t is not improbable that her rash. impetu-
zeal was of the causes of the ftilure of the
enterprise. 1t has been reported that Miss White
was married to MazZini, and she is said TO have 50
represented herself when arrested. But this il
untrue, and she il now understood to be affianced
to = poor and comparatively unknown young man,
who must be astOnished TO find his lady-loye de-
velopng into fierce revolutionary leader and con-
spirator Her admiration OF MazZni is of diff
ferent character entirely from feminine passion,
and more resembles fanatical idoatry. When
the carabneers approached 10 arrest hcr, ''she
threw herself upon portrait Of hazzin and
kissed it with intense and pious fervor." Her sex
has protected her from harsh usage by the anthor-
tiles of Genoa, and although closely confined she
is allowed comfortable chamber adjoining the
apartments of the governor of tine prison. We
have not heard whether England designs to inter
cede in behalf of this fair, infatuated but brave
hearted subject of Her Majesty.

cats were again affected well as rats. Many of

PROCESS OF MAKING OIL PROh CAMEL C0H-It
WAS stated yesterday. that the first shipment ever
made of oil, extracted from Camel coal was sent
from Charleston, kana1ha county Va, last week
lhiS promises to become u heavy trade in Virginia
as the kanawha Star says, that establishment
were there now making 200 gallons Of oil per day,
will in few days increase its manufacturing capa-
city 1900 gallons daily. The same paper gives an
account of the mode of producing the oil, from
which we extract the following:
'The coal is first broken up into small pieces not
larger in size than hens egg. then placed into
retorts, and heat is applied to the sides and top o
the Tetorts. At the same time the heat il applied
externally to the retorts, stream of steam IN,
|'tSsiy not. IL thrown into each retort. This com
blnatlOn of heat partially t,g,lfeS the coal, and
causes the oily matter of the coal to escape in q
mgaseOus and semi-liquid condition through
pipes leading from the bottom of each retort. The
oily matter thus coming from the various retorts
~ discharged into one large pipe, which leads into
A very large reservoir of cold water. This large
pipe enters i'll at the top OF the reservoir and after
making many revolutions (stil-worm like in the
water Of the reservoir passes out of the reservoir
at the bottom. The oily matter in passing through
this large Pipe becomes condensed, and inme iatc-
y after leaving the reservoir it discharges itself as
gas, ,gGter and crude oil, into cistern The gas
then makes its exit through pipe at the top of the
oil factory; the water, which comes from the in
tensely heated steam and vapor of the coal is con-
Quoted off by small tube and the crude oil. which
rises above the water and to the top Of the cistern
is drawn off by pipe likewise.
From the crude is obtained benzole Illuminating
oil, lubricatng oil and parafne Benzole is an in
iammable liquid, and parafne is like white wax
and we'll suited for candles. After extracting the
oil frsm the COAL there is left coke, which is used
in the furnaces. under the retorts for fuel. and
answers nearly well for that purpose as the coal
itself does. The water that comes from the coal
and is discharged into the cistern is called anl07d
