HEATING BY GAs-SAND1Ne THE AIR
One of the new buildings erecting by Mrs
Dudley, in Hawk street, says the Albany
Knickerbocker, is not only to be lighted,
but heated with gas The plan adopted is
the one got up by Calvin Pepper, ESQ.,, OF
that city. The iron work will be done up
at the Eagle Furnace. Mr.. Pepper gets
up his heat by passing gas through sand =
Ii the gas be directed into the body Of the
sand it will instantly difuse itself through
the entire mass, and, rising to the surface,
may, with perfect safety be instantly sci
on fire with a match, the fame covering the
whole surface of the sand with pure flame
without smoke, no matter how large the
extent Of the fame, and with perfect and
complete combustion
The heat is almost instantaneously DIFF
fused through the entire mass Of sand heat
ing it equally throughout, and requiring
but one minute Of time to heat the sand to
such intense temperature that it will retain
its heat for hours after the gas is shut off,
and the light extinguished. There can be
no doubt that the gas required to light a
room will also be sufficient to heat it.
Mr.. Pepper claims that two cents worth
of gas will make sufficient quantity Of
sand red-hot to keep room warm in eight
Winter hours. If this be so, it will be
seen that our fuel expenses can be reduced
to about fifty cents week.

AN IMPERIAL LovE-LETTER. The sub
joined love epistle, addressed by the first
Napoleon to the wife he afterwards repudi-
ated for an Austrian bride, is from the re-
Gently issued collection of "The Letters of
Napoleon l." sMy Only Josephine -
"Far from thee there is no happiness
away from thee, the world is desert /;
where [ remain alone, and without feeling
the soft pleasure of opening my heart
Thou hast taken from me more than my
soul; thou art the sole thought Of my life
IF I am wearied with the annoyance Of
business, if I fear the issue, if war disgusts
me, if | am ready to curse life, I place my
hand upon my heart, where thy image
beats; | look upon it, and love is for me
absolute happiness, and all is RANT, save
the time [ am absent from my love. By
what art hast thou been able to take captive
all my faculties, and concentrate in thyself
my moral faculties It is magic, my sweet
heart, which will only end with me. Life
for Josephine is the history Of my life. |
| work to draw nigh unto thee; die to be
near thee, o my adorable wife. | know
not what fate awaits me; but if it keeps
me from thee longer, it will become insup-
portable to me my courage will not go SO
far. There was time when prided N.Y.
self on my courage, and sometimes when I
cast my eyes upon the evil men may do to
me, upon the fate which may be in store
for me, | looked upon the most unheard of
mifortunes without a frown, without feeling
astonished; but to-day, that my Josephine
may be i'll, the idea that she may be I'M
well, and, above all, the cruel and dismal
thought that she may love me less, withers
my soul, stops MY blood, renders me sad
and broken down, and does not leave even
the co urage of Juror and despair.

PRONUNCIATION Sheridan agreed with
Walker about the word wind-pronouncing
it wynd; but differed from him with respect
to gold, which he would pronounce goold.-
Sheridan tells us that Swift used to jecl
those who pronounced wind with short /
by saying, ''I have a great mind to fnn'd
why you pronounced it winn'd." An illib.
eral critic retorted this upon Mr.. Sheridan
by saying, eff | may be 50 boold should

When the misguided and imprudent votary OF
pleasure finds he has imbibed the seeds of painful
isease, it too often happens that timed sense
of sham, or dread of discovery, deters him from
applying to those who, from education and respec-
liability, can alone befriend him, delaying till the
constitutional symptoms Of this horrid disease make
their appearance such as liberated sore THROAT al
dmness of sight, deafness, nodes the shin bones
and arms, blotches on the head face and L.. extrem
ties, progressing with rapdity till at Las
in, and the victim of this awful disease becomes
horrd object of till death putsa pc
Rod to his dreadful sufferings, by sending him to
ssthat bourne from whence no traveller returns
TO such therefore, DR.. Johnston pledges himself to
preserve the most involable secresy; and from his
extensive practice in the first hospitals in Europe
and America, he can confidently recommend safe
and speedy to the unfortunate victims Of this
horrid disease.
1t is melancholy fact, that thousands fall vic
Tins to.this dreadful complaint, owing to the jun
sklfulness of Ignorant Pretenders who, by the use
of that deadly poison, mercury, ruin the constitu-
ion and send the unfortunate sufferer to an untime-
~ grave or else make the residue of life miserable.
