a Destructive Inventinn.

General L W. Stone, Master of Ord.
nance, in connection with Committee of
Council, have been engaged this forenoon
10 witnessing some experiments with q
noxous aud destructive substance, to be
used in bombarding towns and cities, or
By ships of war The trials were made
upon the Public Garden.
NJ. Peionier, French an, claims the
invention, which consists of rouod bali
of different B aterials, of the most odor-
ous character, aud infamable to such
degree that when once ignited water will
not quench the flames. The mass is en-
closed in stiff paper. and can be dischar-
ged from a mortar. or bowitEer.
Whatever the ball strikes causes . con-
cussion which oxplodes the novelty con-
structed she'll, sets the articles within on
fire, which dart out in tongues of fame
in all directions and at the same time be-
gins a stencil perfectly uDendurable, for
a considerable distance from the bur-
ming compound. One striking feature in
the invention, as We have often before re-
marked, is that the d materials must burn
up, if once on fire, as water has no effect
to extinguisb the combustion.
These highly scented fire balls will be
principally effectige Cor service upon the
sea- When thrown into a vessel, it would
inevitably se enwraPped in flames, while
the air would be so contaminated that
breathing would be very difficult to the
crew. They might reasonably DO pardon
ed for endeavorDg to escape into arurer
atmosphere by running below, or by a.
bandouing the ship.-BostOn IfaveHer.

How an Army Moves.

There are great many things besides
men and guns essential to sn army, aud
a commander, about to lead an army in-
to hostile country, fret sees that the
com nissariat is we'll provided with pro-
visions, that there are ample means Of
transportation, and that there is reserve
Of ammunition and clothing, and a good
supply of hospital stores and medicines.
All the preliminary arrangements for the
march have been carefully made, the Ger
of march" is communicated to the several
commanding officers of divisions, brigades
and regiments, but not published in or
ders. The troops are distributed accor-
ding to the character of the country. In
very open country, large proportion
of cavalry would be at the head Of the
column; but generally it is distributed
throughout the line. The artillery should
be ip the rear of the first foot regiment.
An advance or rear guard Of mounted
troops-oDe or two compauies-should
be next day in the rear. In a woody or
mountainous country, detatchments of
faDkers and skirmishers are thrown out
to the right and left of the column, at the
distance of one or two hundred PAGES, to
keep sharp lookout, and prevent any
such disastrous and gratuitous exPerien-
ces as those painfully and recently famil-
lar to us in connection with the ambus-
cade on the road to Vienna.
The column having been formed at half
or quarter distance, and the baggage train
assembled in the rear, protected by a
guard selected from each regiment for its
own baggage, the column is put in mo.
ton, and the march commences with the
same regularity as would be observed by
a regiment moving in or out of garrison
town, the bands playing, the light infant
ry with arms sloped and those Of the RI
f1emen sluDg over the shoulder, the off,
GERS with swords drawn, exact wheeling
distances preserved, and perfect silence
observed. After having proceeded a
short distance in this manner, the word
of command, "route step, is given by the
General at the head of the leading bat.
talion, and passed quickly on to tho rear.
The captains, instead of continuing at the
head of their companies, draw back to
the rear Of them, that they may see any
men of their respective companies who at
tempt to quit the ranks without leave
The soldiers then march and carry their
arms in any manner convenient to them,
conversation and smoking ordinarily al
lowed.

The Quakers in MARYLAND and Virginia.

The Quakers in Maryland and Virginia.
Perhaps the finest Quaker (Hicksite)
settlement iu Maryland is to be found at
Sandy Spring, about 25 miles out north.
west from Washington city, of wealthy
and suscessful farmers, supporting free
schosls, lyceum for lectures, and val
liable circulating library. Employing
no slave labor, uor even hiring slaves,
because the wages must 60 to the owners
of the men, these peaceful settlers have
distanced those of all other parts of the
country, and their influence has extended
to other communities. In the early days
of Maryland their fathers settled there,
and accepted the eternal testimony against
slavery; to it they have unanimously ad-
bered. This is the ancestral1 centre Of
the Stablers, Hallowells, Brookses, Far
quhars, and other noble families. When
the present troubles began, the Southern
Wrongs party held meeting at Rock
vile. and very much to their dismsy, the
entire tribe of Quakers, "Dever tefore
known to attend political O. meeting"
presented themselves. They were met
with fcrocious growl, bat it was of no
use secession was paraIyged. Immedi-
ately after the Baltimore street conflict,
the spirit of secession swept like lorna
do through that State; but the Quskers
did Dot bow nor bend to it. They we're
threatened with mob. They met, and
decided that alive or dead, there they
would remain. And they do remain
there. sheltering nightly scores of rcfu-
gees from the South, although they nay
not take the sword, they are ready to
defend, in every way consistent with their
testim onies, liberty.

THE PRISONERS.
Minor, the South CaroliDs, says that
his father is dead, and that bis mother
keeps hotel in Charleston He states
also that he has an aunt residing in r.
vingplace, in this city. He has followed
the sea for living.
James E. Dorsey, Of Point Pleasant,
New Jersey, says that he was cook of
the steamer Stag that was seized at Chat
awissa, Florida; that be was there seized
By the Rebels, and was sent to Cedar
Keys, Florida, to cook for Confederate
troops. From there he shipped to savan-
nah, Georgia. where he had to run in
debt for bis board, and eventually the
clearinghouse keeper shipped him, no.

Habit.

Old Bicks was an awful snorer. He
could be heard further than blacksmith's
forge; but his wife became so accustomed
to it, that it soothed her repose. They
we're very domestic couple; never slept
apart for many years. Atlength the old
man was required to attend Court at some
distance. The first night after, bis wife
never slept wink; she missed the snoring
accompaniment. TIE next night passed
away in the same manner, without sleep.
She was getting into a very bad way and
probably would have died, had it not
been for the ingenuity of servant girl
who perceived the difficulty. She took
the coffee mill into her mistress cham
ber, and ground her to sleep at once.

She Regretted It.

The following anecdOte is going the
rounds -
"An elderly lady, who attended a meet
ing Of the First VerDoDt Regiment, arose,
full of enthusiasm, and said she thanked
God that she vas able to 90 something
for her country; her two sons, all she po-
sessed in the world, were in the regiment;
and the only thing she bad to regret was
nat she could not have known it twenty
years ago-she would have furnished
more.'

The Kind of Nets.

"You can't DO anything with them
Southern fellows" the old gentleman at
the head Of the table was saying. "If
they get whipped, they'll retreat in them
Southern swamps and bayous along with
the fishes and crocodiles. You haven't
got the i.h nets made thatll catch em. "
"Look here, old gentleman" screamed
a fiery little fellow at the foot Of the ta-
bic. "We've got just the kind of nets
for traitors in the bayou's, or anywhere" ;"
"Hey! what nets!"
Bayou aaetsi" aud the little fellow
pointed his joke with fork, speariug a
ish-ball savagely.

How to Make Corn Bread.

Almost every one is interested now in
knowing how to make corn bread most
palatable, since so much more Of it will
be used in these straightened times. The
following is said to be an excellent re-
ceipt:--Scald at night half the quantity
of meal you are going to use, mix the 9th :
er with cold water, having it the consis-
tency of thick batter; add a little salt and
set it to rise; it will need no yeast In
the morning, the cakes will be light and
crisp. SkimmiDss, where meat has been
brOiled, is best for frying them with
Fry slowly.
