A PERILOus UNDERTAKING An English papei
reports feat almost equal In daring to that OF
crossing Niagara on a tight rope. II SAYS:
A remarkable and perious undertaking has jus,
been accomplished at Stoke Prior, in Worcester.
shire At that place are extensive chemical works
which form q small town in themselves and here
is one Of the talest chimneys in the country being
no less than 3i2 feet (l04 yards) in height Upon
this chimney was fixed, some three or four wears
ago, lightning conductor. (the chimney having
a short time before been struck with lightniny)
but the action of the chemical gases from the
chimney having eaten away all the projecting
portions Of the conductor, the proprietor (Mf
Corbet) engaged a person from Sheffield (Mr
Brownl 10 undertake the task. which he has lust
eleverly accomplished The proprietor being un-
willing to stop the works ID was necessary to as
cend to the top of the chimney by the exterior,
and accordingly MIR. Brown prepared "a ladders
edch u feet Ia length, and having placed one i'm
position at The foot of the chimney spliced the
second TO 1t by ropes at the same me securing II
from motion by pins fixed in the chimney. The
chief diffculty, however, was In fixing and as
eending the last ladder there being cornice at
the top Of the chimney projecting three feet three
inches. However, this difficulty was cleveriv
overcome, and the ingenious and yentnresou,y
contractor having ascended il, stood i'm safety on
the top Of the lightning conductor To ascend a
chimney OF this height by ladders is a feat never
before accomplished.

The BRRwERIEs OF LoSDON.-0f the seven.
teen great London breweries. the house Of
Trueman, Hanbury, Buxton Co., stood last
year at the top of the list, having consumed
10000 quarters of malt, and paid to the excise
flS0.O00, or enough to build two ninety gun
ships, at the usual cost of f 900 per gun. The
visiter, in proceeding through this establish
ment, realizes, perhaps, better than in any
other place, the enormous scale in which certain
creature comforts for the use Of the town arc
produced. As he walks by the hugh boilers in
which 1000 bbls are brewed nearly every day,
or makes the circuit Of the four great watts each
containing $4,000 gallons Of liquor, or loses
himself among the labyrinth of l35 enormous
reservoirs which altogether bold ), 500 600 gal
Ions, he begins to fancy himself an inhabitant
Of Lilliput who has gone astray in a Brobdig-
nagisn cellar. .#
There is popular notion that the far-fame,i
London Stout owes its flavor to the Thames
water. This, however, is n vulgar error No,
even the MeSsrs. Barclay, who are upon the
stream, draw any of their supplies from tha,
source, but it is got from wells, and those sunk
50 deep that they and the Mes.rs. Calvert whose
brewery is half mile distant, upon the oppo-
site side Of the river, find that they are rivals
for the same spring. When one brewery pumps
it drains the wells OF the other, and the firms
are obliged to obtain their water on alternate
days. Whether it is owing to the increase OF
the great Brewers and other manufactures
which alone consume millions of barrels OF
water yearly, we know not, but it is an ascer.
tanned fact that the depths of water in the Lon.
don wells has for the last twenty FIVE year,
been diminishing at the rate of foot year
% 1t is comforting to reflect" said one of the
great brewers, =" that the reason simply is. be-
cause the water which used to be buried under
ground, is now brought up to fll the bodies
wash the faces. and turn the wheels Of two
millions and half Of people. ....

Bonner ON Fast Drivinx.

In this weeks Ledger Mr.: Bonner corrects
some of the errors that have been current about
his horses, aad gives the result Of his expert
eneesiu fst arriving. He says:
The daily papers have lately published
several paragraphs-so of them altogether
erroueous--about pair of celebrated horses
that we own In order to set the matter right
we have concluded to give our readers brief
sketch of our experience with horses -.Hs u
About two years ago-fafter some eighteen
years hard. labor, during the greater part Of
which time We worked nearly fifteen hours q
day)-we found our health declining, and were
threatened with general physical prostration.
At the suggestion ofoar family physician we
purchased horse and drove out nearly every
pleasant afternoon. Within three months the
tone of our system was restored, aud our weight
increased upwards Of twenty pounds We be-
came in brief, new man, About this time
Mayor Rice, of Boston, who happened to be in
our Office one day, informed US that splendid
pair Of horses, owned by Capt. Robbins, Of th at
city, and which had taken the first premium
for matched horses, at the great National Ex-
hibition at Springfield, were for sale. We
bought the horses. We found them to be all
that they ropresented-sound.k kind spirited
stylish, and-fast; yes, fast! and we would not
have given one snap Of our finger for them il
there is a anonsenscal prejudice against what are
too often contemptuOusly called fast horses {"
We subsequently disposed Of those horses-they
having done US good service for two years
and procured others still faster, so that we now
own pair of horses--Lantern and Lady Wood
ruf-that can travel about as fast as we caro- to
ride. '---. '
We like horses of fast, quick active move
ment, just as We like fast, active, energetic,
GO o-ahead men. Whether 1t is exhibited in N an
or beast, we like TO see mettle. With the spirit
OF betting and gambling on races, we have no
sympathy; We detest it, just as we do betting
on the Presidential election. But, say some,
it is cruel to drive horse ut high rate of
speed; so tbs If we over-do the animal But
did it never occur to these well-meaning but
mistaken people that fast, well-bred horse
can travel at a three-minute pace for half an
hour with less labor and distress than four
minute horse could travel for the Same length
of time, A man is more likely to overtask a
common, slow horse than we'll bred fastone-
because the blood horse can endure infinitely
more AS for ourselves, when we go out on the
road, whether we so alone, or are accompanied
by our ''better half, or our little boys we like
to have in front Of us a team of the fastest of
fast horses, as We have a natural aversion to
taking anybody's dust, or playing second fiddle
to anybody in anything we undertake.

The Tarco. i'm Paris.

The Turcos have been deprived of thsir side
arms, as in consequence Of the readiness of the
population to them to drink, and pafticularly
their resdiness to accept, one or two most an
pleasant accidents have occurred. The camp
on Sunday was visited by three hundred tbaur
sand people. The heat and srffoeatiori became.
at one period OF the day 30 unbearabIe th at the
people were actually seen lying down bv the
road home-ths intense heat OF the sui, the
dust raised by the incessant marching TO and
fro, the peculiar effluyis arising from that inn
mense Assem- biage OF human beings rendered
the place an anticipated experience Of pande-
mOnium. Great provisions Of wine. beer. ard
erassical coco had been made, but all was con-
sumed long before the visitors had ceased 10
arrive, and towards three o'clock the sum Of
five sous was paid for single glass of water.
and happy indeed, was he considered who sr,c-
ceeded IA obtaining the luxury even at that
price Towards evening the Turcos began to
get riOtOus, and a slight scrimmase took plsce
on the Boulevard. which fortunately led 10 no
result "A party of these men returning to the
camp on foot espied open carriage waiting
for its owners at the door of house ON the
boulevard Beaumarchais. To these unsophis-
tlcated children of nature, rather the worse
for liquor, and armed TO the teeth, an empty
vehicle standing useless in the street, signi6ed
