Properties of Phosphorus.

It's row Just two hundred years since
phosphorus was first obtained by Brand, Of
Hamburg So wonderful was the discove-
nv then considered that Krapt, an emf
nent philosopher OF the day, gave Brand
three hundred dollars for the secret of it's
preparation. Krapt then travelled and Wis
tied nearly all the courts Of Europe, exhib-
ting phosphorus to kings and mobiles. In
appearance the article resembles beeswax,
but it is more transparent, approaching to
the color Of amber. Its name, which is de-
rived from the Greek, signifies "light-bear-
err" and is indicative of its most distn-
gushing quality, being aelf-luminous When
exposed to the air it shines like star
giving out beautiful lambert greenish
light. Phosphorus dissolves in warm sweet
OIL and if this Unsupported oil be RUBBED
over the face in the dark the features as.
sumo a CHASTITY appearance. The origin OF
phosporus is the most singular fact con-
corning it. Every other known substance
can be traced to either earth or air; Out
pbospborus seems TO of animal origin:
OF all animals, man contains the most; and
of the various parts of the body, the brain
Yields, by analysis, more phosphorus than
any other.

arsenic In Wall Paper.

DR. Kinds, of Birmingham, England has
called attention to a method OF accidental
arsenical poisoning, which should be gen
orally Known. He CHANGED to select tor the
adornment of his study particularly bright
tinted wall paper, the pattern OF which was
confined TO two shades OF green. About
two days after it had been applied be hrs'
used the room in the evening, sitting there
and reading by gas light. Whilst thus
engaged he was seized with severe de-
presslon, nausea, abdominal pain, and pros
tration. This same chain of symptoms en-
sued on every subsequent evening when be
occupied the room. The led to an inquiry
into the cause. lie scraped off little OF the
bright coloring matter from his green pa
per, and, by sublim alton, produced abun'
dant crystals of arseniouS acid. The paper
was covered with arsenite of copper
Sbeeles green. DIR. Kinds states that the
presence of the arsenical pigment may be
recognized by its brilliant and beautiful
hue, and by little running OF the color
at the edges of the pattern.

A Phenomenon.

The Baltimore Sun says "whoever lives to
see the evening before the full moon OF this
month, if he sits W till midnight may see, II
the night be clear, an astronomical phenome'
non which will not again occur for nineteen
years, when ,wo.thirds of the people nsw upon
the earth will have past to their final rest. Al
twelve o'clock that night, the moon, so neal
the fnll as to appear a perfect orb, will ap
proach within ten degrees of the meridian
i've degrees nearer to it than the sun comes
on the DIST of June. Seen from an elevated
position commanding the whole horizon, II
will be a splendid sight. The moon vii
seem to be almost in the zenith, the ten de
grees being much diminished in appearances
at that far height "
