1t is generally thought that when q
vessel is full yof water any solid substance
Immersed In IL will cause it to overflow,
and such will be the case if the substance
Is not soluble in water; but the philosophio
truth, that in -dissolving q body you do
not increase the volume of the solvent,
may be proved by a simple and Interesting
experiment. 'a-lsfi ''sfafoasf's7

at moderate heat. with three ounces OF
sugar;s and when II win no longer receive
that, tEsre is room ia it fer two ounces Of
salt of tartar, and after that for an ounce
and q dram of green vitrol, nearly six

and q scruple of alan, and a dram and

Nobody
We have our monumcnts commemorating
and our speeches, our songs, our toasts, and
cur public dinners, celebrating the wonderful
deeds Of our forefathers, but where are those
in honor of our foremotherS? ? We had better
be getting them ready We talk ourselves
hoagse and write ourselves rctnd shouldered
while boiling over with enthusiasm about the
nice things our forefathers did, and yet nothing
is said about our foremo.hers, to whom many
virtuons act and brave deed may be ascribed
. s,gi as any hero would be proud to oan.-
Besides we forgot to remember that if it had
not been for our foremotheTs, we ourselves
would not be here to know, and be proud oi
what our forefatherS did

We honor the chi9alrous Difference which
is paid in our land to women. 1t proves that
our men know how TO respect virtue and pure
affection, and that our women are worthy of
such respect Yet woman should be some
thing more than mere woman to win Us to
their society. To be our companions they
should be fitted to be orr friends to rule our
hearts, they should be deserving the approba-
ton of our minds There are many such, and
that there are no more is rather the fault Of
our own Sex than their own, and despite all
the unmanly scandals that have been thrown
upon them in prose and verse, they would
rather share in the rational con7er1ation of
men of sense than listen to The silly compi-
ments of fools and man di5hcncrs them, as
well as dsgraces himself, when he seeks their
circle for idle pastime, and not for the i'm
provement of his mind and tbe eleTation Of
his heart
