How Coal OIL may 10 Explosive.

The Rochester Union says that in
coal oll-or we'll oil-in it, crude state,
there is . highly inflsmable substance
called benzole, which il removed by
distillation. When this substance is re.
moved, OF nearly 20, coal oil il not ex.
plosive. Honest refners endeavor to
extract this entirely, but Us there is
trifing demand for it, ~(beoxole,) there
is q temptation to either have it in the
oil, OF to mix it after refining. An oil
refiner remarked to me q few days ago
"Until . refinery has been going on fol
six months, you are sure of honest oil
after that, the stock Of benzole aocumu'
lates 90 rapidly that they are tempted
to mix it in . little, and 90 increase the
dose, until, before they think of it, the
oil is 40 explosive IS powder" 1t is oi
mixed in this way that has given rise te
reports Of mixing camphene, full, ETC.,
and l have no doubt this was the cause
with the oil that exploded as noticed BY
you. A good test to apply to oil is to
pour q little into . saucer, apply a flame
to it, if it catches instantly, you may be
assured there is benzole 10 it in abund

frightened children. When God speaks in
those storms His voice is awful to the car,
and many strong man is quaied before it,
And the storm itself is scarcely more trying
to ones nerves than just before it strikes,
while men wait in dreadful suspense.
Thus those men waited till the minutes
heightened into hours, and the only change
perceptible was in the deepening color of that
lowering cloud of crimson light. At length
eight bells told that four O'Clock had arrived.
and daylight was looked for as those men with
Paul looked for it when they "wished for
day."
But the struggling light Of the day seemed
only to reveal the thickness of the darkness to
the wandering vision. Just at daylight their
ears wesc stunned with successive, quick re-
ports, louder than whole broadsdes from a
hundred gun ship, the whole heavens were
lighted up with fiery red light; the ocean
was stirred from her profound depths; great
waves without any visible cause, ran in the
most awful commotion, now striking together
and throwing the white foam and spray high
in air. then parting to meet again in fearful
embrace as before; a school of sperm whales
ran athwart the ships bow, making every ex-
ertion to escape from the strangely-troubled
water; within few cable-lergths of the ship
an immense column of yl;ar vas thrown mast
head high, and fell back again with roar like
Niagara deep mournful noise, like the echo
of thunder among mountain caverns, was con-
stanty heard, and none could tell whence it
came the noble ship was tossed and shaken
like plaything.
"Great God have mercy upon us !" cried
officers and men. "What it this? What is
coming nextP Is it the day of judgement ?''
The royal Psalmist described them accutely,
"Thcy reel TO and fro, and stagger like a
drunken man, and are at their wits end."-
Soon the mystery was solved, when, right be-
fore their eyes, about one league from them,
there arose the rough sides of mountain out
of the yielding water, and reared its high head
in the air; then from its summit flames burst
forth, and melted lava ran like river down
the declivity, and fell like cascade of flame
into the seethng ocean. 1t was a birth-throo
of nature, and an island was born which was
mics in circumference
Two years afterwards sailed right over that
place, but the placid water gave no intimation
that an island had been there yet no man has
said that he saw the death and burial of that
land whose birth | have thus chronicled.-
"They that 90 down to the sea in ships, that
do business in the great waters these see the
works of the Lord, and His wonders in the
deep"

TIN.-1f there is any one substance more
than anoth2r that has rendered England famous
throughout the world, it is tin. Camden, the
historian, supposes that this country, from the
abundance of tin that it contains, was called
Britain. In the Syriac language, "varacanac
signifies land of tin !" whence is derived Britain
The mention of tin by Moses, in the 3lst chap
ter of Numbers, 22d verse, is proof of its
being known from the most remote antiquity.
Long before the Christian era the trade Of tin
caused many vessel TO spread its sails in the
Mediterranean Sea, and to cross the Bay of
Biscay to fetch il from these shores.
The alchemists of old considered tin to be
mixture Of tin and lead, but modern chemistry
proves it to be distinct metal. About 10000
tons Of tin are extracted every year from the
mines in Cornwall and Devon nearly the whole
of which is consumed in the manufacture of
tin plate (er blanc, or white iron, as the French
term it, that is, sheet iron coated with tin; and
it is this substance which constitutes our famous
tin ware, which finds market from Naples to
Japan, from New York 10 Eupatoria. Melted
tin forms sort of varnish for iron, and pre-
vents that metal from rusting; when copper Is
coated with it, yerdigris cannot be produced.
Tin and lead melted together produce what is
called Britannia metal !" of which teapots and
similar domestic utensils are made. 1t is owing
to a mordant of tin that The dyer produces the
fine scarlet cloth 50 famous as the royal and
military cloth of this country. In many other
ways we could show how very useful tin is; but
it is enough for US to state that England is the
tin plate manufacturer tor the world.-PieSse's

called to severe reckoning might not un-

New York and Boston Kidd soon threw of
the character of privatecr and became pirate.
He established friendly communications and
exchanged arms and ammunition with the most
notorious Of those roycrs whom his commission
authorized him to destroy, and made war on
those peaceful traders whom he was sent to le-
fend. He began by robbing Mussumans. and
speedily proceeded from Mussulmans to Ar
menians and from Armenians to Portuguese.
The Adventure Galley took such quantities of
cotton and of silk, sugar and coffee, cinnamon
and pepper, that the very foremast men received
from hundred to two hundred pound each,
and that the captains share of the spoil would
have enabled him to live at home as an opulent
gentleman. With the rapacity, Kidd had the
cruelty of his odious calling. He burned
houses, he massacred pcaSantry. His prisoners
were tied up and beaten with naked cutlasses
in order to extort information about their con-
cealed boards. One of his crew, whom he had
called dog, was provoked into exclaiming, in
an agony of remorse, ayes, am dog, but it
is you that have made so.' Kidd, in fury,
struck the man dead.
News travelled then very slowly from the
Eastern Seas to England. But in August, 1857
it was known in England that the Adventure
Galley, from which so much had been hoped,
was the terror OF the merchants of Surat and
of the coast of Maabar. 1t was thought prob
able that Kidd would carry his booty to some
colony. Orders were, therefore sent from
Whitehall to the governors of the transmarinC
possessions of the crown, directing them to be
on the watch for him. He meanwhile, having
burned his ship, and dismissed most of his mer
who easily found berths in the sloops of Other
pirates-returned to New York with the means
as he hattered himself, of making his peace anC
of living in splendor. He had fabricated long
romance, to which Belamont, naturally unwil
ling to believe that he had been duped, and had
been the means of duping Others was at first
disposed to listen with favor. But the trutt
soon came out. The governor had done hi!
duty firmly, ard Kidd was placed in close con
fnement till orders arrived from the Admiralty
that he should be sent to England

SALLY SPUNK.

For the NSO YORK Independents Young Readers.
"Did you ever hear of little woman called
Sally Spunk She is an awfully sharp, cross,
old hag with loud, scolding voice, and face
as puckered and wrinked as baked apple.
Everybody hurries and scurries out of her way
when she is abouti for my part | had rather
see mad dog coming any day than old Sal.
"She is always poking her old nose about
wherever there's any children, and trying to
make them as sour and as scowling and as dis
contented as she is herself She does not seem
to have any home of her own either, but is al
ways watching her opportunity to slip in wher-
ever she can find place, and lodge for awhile
Her favorite home is in one of the vacant cham
bers in little children's hearts, where, if she
can possibly, by hook or by crook, squeeze her.
self in, the first thing they know, she has taken
possession of the place, and just deliberately
turned out Miss Love, or Mr.. Good mature, or
little Master Try-to-d fright, or any other nice
person that lives there.
"If you once let her get her foot into your
premises | can tell you there is no hope for
you, or any other little boy. She will off with
her things, and begin to hustle about and move
in her furniture, and before you can wink, there
she is, all settled at housekeeping right under
your very nose, blust sring and scolding about,
and making all her quiet and gentle neighbors
perfectly uncomfortable.
ii once knew little boy, named Tommy
Tinder, who had a terrible time with old Sal.
She first made his acquaintance when he was
wee bit of baby only year old and then,
as he was too small and tender and weak to
manage such powerful enemy, his mother
took It upon herself to fight her off, and she
had several real battles with her, can tell you ;
but mamma always conqured in the end, and
Sal would sneak away like whipped dog
"By-and-b by degrees, as Tommy grew older,
Sal became bolder, and was constantly peeping
and dodging about as quick and as nimble as a
cat after mouse, popping into his little heart
every day, just to take a look, and staying
longer each time, till finally there was no way
of getting her out and before anybody knew it,
she was actually established there in Miss
Loves room, as snug us you please, all her
things in order, and looking and acting as il
she had always lived there, and the premises

WOULDN'T UNsCREw ANY MoRE.-Captain
Evans was an old navy veteran Of sixty-seven
years. He had lost an arm and an eye, years
before, at Navarino which last action settled
his understanding both legs being carried off
by chain shot. Cork legs were coming into
fashion. Captain Evans had pair of the first
quality made for him he had false arm and
hand into the latter he could screw fork or
a book, as occasion required, and being gloyed
the deficiency was not easily perceived. As
increasing years rendered him in6rm, his valet
took advantage of him, SO that he wrote to his
brother, Somersetshire squire, TO send him
up some tenants son as body servant. "No
matter how stupid, if but honest and faithful"
he wrote.
His brother was absent, and sent to his
steward to select a lad. This the steward did,
but merely mentioned that Captain Evans was
infrm, not apprising the pumpkin of his new
masters deficiencies, and sent him to London
at once, where the Captain lived
AT ten at night he arrived, and was immedi-
ately showed to Captain Evans sitting room.
"What is your name ?"
"My name he John, zur."
"Well, John, my rascally valet is absent
again without leave; help me to bed, as it is
late, and then you can go down to your sup
per-"
Adjourning to the bedroom, the old gentle
man said
John, unscrew my leg"
"Zur?" said John.
"Unscrew my leg this way, see."
John did so tremblingly.
"John, unscrew my other leg"
"ZurP" said John.
"Unscrew the oth,c leg sir"
John, did So now in state of bewilder-
ment
| "John unscrew this arm"
Trembling still more, to the captains great
amusement, he obeyed.
"John, put this eye on the table"
John took it as il it would have bitten him.
"Now John-no, won't take the other eye
outfit me into bed"
This done, the waggish captain continued ;
"John, beat up the pillow, it is not comtorta-
ble."
1t was done.
"Beat it up again, sir it is quite hard.'
Again John shook up the pillow.
"That won't do; John, can't get my head
comfortable; John, uRScrep my head"
"No, by thunder, I'll unscrew no more :
and John fed from the room to the kitchen
swearing his master was the devil, taking him
self to pieces like clock.

CHARCOAL FOR SwINE.-One of the best
articles that can be given to swine while in
preparation for the tub, is common charcoal.
The nutritive properties are so great that they
have subsisted on it without other food for
weeks together. Geese, confined so as to de-
prive them of motion, and fed on three grains
of corn per day. and as much coal as they can
devour, have become fat in eight days. The
never sick while he has a good supply. 1t

OATS on FALL-PLowED GREENswARD.-
Prof. Tanner, in his Prize Essay on the "Me-
chancal Condition of the Soil Favorable for
the Growth OF Seed" recommends plowing up
an old sod in the fall and leaving it until seed
time in the spring. The winter action of the
frost will render such land most desirable
seed bed for oats-"a soil well charged with
vegetable matter, firm beneath, yet easy Of
penetration tor the roofing of the plant, with a
surface light and free in its character for the
termination of the seed. This frmness Of the
land for the root must be distinguished from
the hardness with which wheat will contend
after it has once made a fair growth.

THE OLD HOMESTEAD.
ny MISS ALICE CARY.

When first the skies grow warm and bright,
Aud fash with gold the hours,
And in her pale, faint robes the Spring
Is calling up the flowers;
When children, with unslippcrcd feet,
Go forth with hearts Of Gee
To the straight nnd even fur ows
Where the yellow corn must be-;
What beautiful embodiment
or case, devoid Of pride,
Is the good old-lashoncd homestead,
With doors still open wide!
But when the happiest time is come,
That to the wear belongs,
OF uplands bright with harvest gold,
And m nlows lull Of songs
When fields Of yet unripened corn,
And daily garnercd stores,
mind the thrifty husbandman
OF ample tlreshiug floors
How pleasant, from the din and dust
OF the thoroughiare alooi,
Seems the old-iashioned homestead,
With steep and mossy roof
When home the woodman plods with axo
Upon his shoulder swung,
And in the knottcd apple-tree
Are scythe and sickle hung;
When light the swallows twittcr
Meath the raf,ers Of the she'd
And the table on the ived pouch
With decent care is spread--
Then hearts are lighter aud freer
Than beat in the populous town,
In the od-fashioued homestead,
With gables sharp and brown.
When the flowers Of Summer perish,
In the cold and bitter rain,
And little birds with weary wings
Have gone across the main;
When curls the blue smoke upward
Toward the blucr sky,
And cold, along the naked hills,
And white the snow-drifls lie
In legends of love and glory
They forget the cloud and storm,
In the old fashioned homestead,
With hearh-stonc large and warm!
