FRIENDS YEARLY MEETING.

The morning and afternoon sessions yesterday, weie
devoted TO that peculiar exercise known to Friends %

"Queries are the name imports, ser1es OF ques-
tons ten in number, arranged in regular formula and
printed in the Book Of Discipline, which directs thst
they be read at stated times in all the business meetings
of the Society. In anticipation of the yearly meeting
are drawn up by the oyerseers and read with
the queries, originally in the Preparation meetings the
lowest form of business meetings known 10 the Society
The from the different Preparation meetings
are then read al the several monthly meetings of which
they form part, and collected into summary. The
monthly meetings in turn remit this summary TO tho
Quarterly meetings TO which they respectively belong,
and each Quarterly meeting going through the same
form of reading the queries and the answers Of ts sub
ordinate monthly meetings. condeDses them again into
a summary which it RENTS TO the Yearly meeting.
At The yearly meeting after the reading Of each query
the answers of the different quarterly meetings are
read and their spirit condensed into summary which
is entered upon the records of the yearly meeting.
Tie Queries are intended 10 promote good morals,
and the mainena OF the order of the Society, by
iDqurng into the degree of zeal and fthfulness with
which they are supported, and are framed with much
skill and address. The first one for instance inquiries
whether the bers faithful in attending all the

of the hour ard in their department while at
the meetings.
The second asks after the maintenance Of fraternai
feelings among the members, and 30 forth.
The time OF reading the Queries and Answers is al

SULPHUR BLEAcHIyG.-Schoenben of Basic has
discovered some exceedingly interesting facts relative
this process. The fumes of burning sulphur as is well
known consist Of sulphurous acid and extensively
employed, especially in bleaching straw hats. The
mosteDed straw, exposed for time to the action of
the fumes, acqutes the desired Wilderness. Chemical

The color is discharged in short time. Schoenben
has found that the bleaching holds good only for GER

it in a stream of yapor from boiling water. On cool

FILTER FOR CORROSIVE LIqUIDs.-Boettger of
Frankfort employs for the filtration of corrosive
liquids glass funnel, the neck of which is loosely
plugged with gun-cotton. This substance, properly
prepared has the proper brous porous texture for an
efficient filter and being product of the action of the
most corrosive agents. viz, mixed sulphurc and nitric
acids, is scarcely attacked the slightest degree
at medium temperatures by any single agent or SOL
rent, so far as knorn, except aeetie ether.
1t may be employed for fltering strong nitric
acid, Tuning oil-of-vitrol, permanganate of potash,
strong caustic potashley and aqua-rega. Even
chronic acid may be separated from its mother liquors
by this filter. Its use in drying crystals which have
deposited from corrosive liquids is obvious. The gun
cotton employed by Boetger is probably that obtained
by tie action cotton of the strongest suphurc and
nitric acids, that prepared by weaker acids, by
suphuric acid and saltpeter, is soluble in variety of
agents.

GREEN PIGMESTs.-The evil consequences that have
resu from the use the Sehweinfurth green aceto
arsenite of copper, which is prohibited pigment in
the German States has led 70 active search for some
substitute The vivid and beautiful tint of this poison
substance makes its prohibition keenly felt Arnandore
claims TO have discovered pigment scarcely inferior
TO the arsenca green's consisting of oXydof chromium,
but containing pbosphorc acid and water. Its color s
equally good by artifciaa by sunlight Itwithstands
acids aud akaes and may be used only for paint
ing but also in calico printing.

The ECONOMY OF GLUTES.-In our starchfscto-
ries amount of gluten is annually wasted,
or but imperfectly saved. Walter Crum, the distng
uished induttrial Chemist of Thomlebank, Glas-
Cow, has devised means of utilizing this material in
dyeing and calico-printing. 1t is well known that
many coors for example, cocbneal and archiel which
may be readily fixed wool and silk animal iibers
have so little affinity for cotton and vegetable fbers as
to render tie dyeiDg of the latter with them very dill
cult impossible. But few years ago "a process
which is technically designated the naturalization Of
cotton introduced, consisting in coating the cotton
fiber with an animal substance For this purpose al
bumen from eggs and blood has been hitherto en-
ployed. Crum accompnsnes the op)ect Dy
use ofguten, which vegetable product of the
composition albumen but much cheaper than the
latter, especially when occurring a refuse in the
starch manufacture.

SCIENCE, INDUSTRY, AND INTENTION.

CoSsERvATIos or DELICATE CoLoRs.-Since it is
the chemical rays which not only produce Photographic
effects. but lkewise bleach and destroy delicate aud
fugitive colors, Lporvitz has applied the neutralizne
power exered these rays by fuorescent substance
to tie conservation of such coors. They of course,
become permanent, uhen coated by faorescem body.
Not only fabrics of silk, cotton, linen, aud WOOL but
also pictures especially Aquarele's, colorod prints
and photographs may thus be protected.

She arrived this morning, and WAS net at the

the police office. Looking across the street she
saw her little girl playing in the yard Of the

An interview between Nr. and Mrs. Kennedy
was arranged BY the police. 1t took place in

way, to effect reconciliation between her pa

Mrs. Kennedy charged her husband With SELL

Mr. Kennedy says he has not ill-used bis wife;
