1.-THE Turkish Admiral and suit have

ridge, Senators Fitch and Rice, and
Messrs. Baker aud Cavanaugh, Repre-,
sentatiyes from Minnesota, and ex.Gov,
cruor Medary, will accompany the expe'
dition."
4 very delightful trip, certainly, and
still more delightful, if the expenses arc
to be paid out of the appropriation pro
posed by Senator Mason, for the reception
of this Turkish Admiral.-Tae Republic

Parchment Paer

We are so accustomed to wonderful
things now -a-days, that We seem almost
to expect them 10 regular succession from
mouth to month; still, our admiration is
excited when we are told that a very
cheap and simple process will give to pa
per the tenacity and toughness hitherto
sought in parchment alone. The asser-
tion rests upon authoity TO which we feel
bound to defer, as fully competent in such
matters.
The only thing necessary for the pur-
pose is to provide bath, in the form Of
some vide, shallow dish, composed of d.
luted sulphurie acid, in the proportion of
two parts of acid to one Of soft water
The paper is drawn rapidly through this
liquid, and Immediately washed in fresh
water to remove the superauous acid -
This, when dry, is called parchment
paper" and if science will accept term
from us, the process nigh, be called,
Misrepresentation"
1t is asserted that ring of this kind OF
paper has actually sustained greater
weight than one of the same size of thin
parchment,-U Chambers Journal.
