ural separation of the bituminous from the
carbonaceous portion of the coal, which
oozing upward from faults and assures in
the coal seam, drains off between the strata,
and follows the inclination of the latter,
until it reaches the surface in some denu-
ded portion of the coal bed. This gradu-
al oozing, over extensive surfaces, yields a
large supply of liquid, and it is supposed
that any sinking well deep enough to
reach thick stratum of petroleum, will
obtain an abundant and constant yield.
Similar oils have been obtained in Can
ada, in Kentucky, and in Ohio. In the
Burmese Empire similar wells exist, from
which the oil is drawn in buckets. There
are about four hundred wells over space
of some twenty square miles, which are the
property of the Government. They have
been steadily worked for very long time.
The oil is thicker and much heavier than
the Pennsylvania oil, and since it has found
its way to Europe it has quadrupled in

EXPLORATION OF AUSTRALIA.

Recent intelligence from Australia rep
resent that the problem of crossing the
continent from south to north has been vir-
tually solved, and no question now remains
that land transit may be opened up, avail
able not only for the general purpose of
commerce, but also for telegraphic commu-
nication. Mr.. Stuart, who started on
an exploring expedition last March,
has returned, after having crossed the
country to a distance of about 600 miles
from Adelaide, and to within 500 miles of
the Victoria river, where he was turned
back by hostile natives. As he reached
100 miles further north than the point
to which Grcgory'S expedition in 1856 de-
scended from Victoria. the continent may
be considered, by the joint result of these
two surveys, to have been fairly opened up
from one end to the other. Instead of an
arid desert, it is described to be a practi-
cable country throughout Mr.. Stuart
and his companinns suffered terribly from
want, not only Of water, but food, and also
from an attack of scurvy. The part of
the route in which water was totally absent
however, was only sixty miles. In many
parts there was fine grass, besides splen-
did gum and otker trees, including at least
four kinds of palm A very large salt
lake was also discovered in the interior.
supposed, from the blueness of its water,
to be of great depth. The Parliament of
South Australia has voted 92.5O0 to en-
able Mr.. Stuart to start again with
large party, and complete his exploration;
and full particulars of the expedition are
withheld lest some rival explorers in the
other colonies should avail themselves of
his information and snatch from him the
triumphs of final success. The event ere
ated great rejoicing at Adelaide, as opening
a new field for enterprise and colonization

Texas-The Town Poor Seceeding from

Poor Houston has gone under. He made
an effort to resist the Secession movement
in Texas, Just enough to show that he was
dragged into it; and then plunged in his
whole length. What better should he ex-
pected of militay hero, whose military
fame was created BY battle into which be
was dragged by his men against his will,
and on plain threat that if he did not
choose to take part, the battle would 90
on without him For that he is called the
Hero of San JacintO."
What beggars' opera is this Texas Sc
eession! The Government plunged into a
war to protect her annexation. Then it
paid her Sl0,0000OO for lands IN New
Mexico, to which she had 10 more claim
than she had to lands in the m Jon; claim
which we created entirely by fraudulently
setting it up as against Mexico; and the
land was worthless. She has three of four
military posts on her borders garrisoned by
United States troops, to protect her from
the Indians. Within the last year her cries
of distress for protection have alarmed the
whole country, and during this very session
bill has, VIC think, passed the House, to
raise new regiment to protect her from
the Indians.
Now she has resumed her independence,
and is seizing the United States arms and
such property as she can lay her hands on.
and even talks of taking the military posts
which protect her from the Indians and
Greasers, who have kept her in panic for
the last two years. Texas is little too
green in the United States, to perform these
sovereign antics. with impunity. If SIZE
withdraws, she owes US a settlement. We
would not have her coerced to remain in
the Union. We would follow the plan of
honest "Dogberry," and thank God we are
rid Of a pestilent knave.
But there is that ten millions which we
paid her for nothing. and the cost Of her
defense since, and part of the expenses of
the war We undertook on her account, that
we must have back; besides pay for the
property which she steals now. Let the
account be opened, and fair adjustment

BAD KEIGHBORS.

In a little village in Connecticut, several
years ago, there lived one David Barnes, a
person of an excitable temperament and
violent passions, especially-as was often
the ease--vhen under the influence Of
strong driuk. Not far from him resided old
Squire Nelson, famous in all the region
round about for his ready wit, with which
few were able to cope successfully.
The Squire had. at the time OF which l
write, pig of remarkable promise, NAlch
one day effected a stolen exit from its dom
icil, and wandered about seeking what it
might devour, till finally it happened into
Barnes garden, and following the impulse
of its nature, it Gas Barnes himself graph
ically expressed it, rooted around like
all possest."
The animal was at Length espied by
Barnes, who-it being the hour when his
bitters most were felt-issued forthwith
murderous intent with a stick, and so gave
vent to his emotions that the poor beast
withdrew as speedily as possible, and
reached home more dead than alive.
When recovered from the effect of his
potiOns, Barnes regretted his hastiness, and
resolved to visit the Squire, explain, and
make it right, if possible. Off he started.
and found The Squire at home. He hard
ly knew how to open the subject, SO he be-
gan with:
"Wa'al Squire, I'm thinkin' o lea
vim these parts"
Squire-"You don't say? I'm sorry for
that"
Barnes with some surprisc)-"Be ye?
An why, may l ask?''
Squire-"Wa'al, I'll tell you. Years
AGO there came Mr.. Robinson, to live
where you do, and he was a mean sort of
a man, and it was hard gettin' along with
him. And after him come Tom Mullen,
and he was dreadful mean man-worse,
if anything than the other After he left
there. came Bill Mosher, who was really

kept CROWN worse And finally, you

MANUFACTURE OF ARTIFICIAL
FLOWERS.

The manufacture of artificial flowers a.
broad differs somewhat in its various pro-
cesses. though perhaps not essentially,
from the manufacture in this country. A
broad, the material of which the flowers
are made is, first and best, French cam.
brio, but a great quantity of Scotch CAM
brio, jaconet, and even fine calico. are also
used. For some description of flowers,
clear muslin, Grape and gauze are wanted;
and for some very thick petals, satin and
velvet are necessary. These materials are
provided in various colors, as well as in
white, but fresh tiDts have frequently to
be given. These are laid on with a sponge,
or camel hair pencil, or the petal is
dipped in color, and a quantity of green
taffeta is always at hand for leaves. The
coloring matters used in dyeing the mate
rial for the petals are various. Thus. for
rcd, in its various shades, Brazil wood is
largely used. also carmine, lake and cur
thamus. The best way of treating Brazil
wood is to macerate it cold in alcohol for
several days; a little salt of tartar, potash
or soap will make this color pass inte pur-
pie, a little alum gives it a fine crimson
red and an acid will make it pass into
yellow, of which the shade is deeper, ac-
cording to tie quantity employed. Blue
colors are prepared by means of Indigo, or
Prussian blue Yellow colors are given
by turmeric dissolved in spirits of wine,
by saffron, chrome yellow, etc. Green col
ors are obtained By mixtures of blue and
yellow; violets by mixtures of red and blue.
and by orchil and blue bath; lilacs by
orchil only.

LIFE IS LONG.

It is common for moralists to warn men
from vicious courses by the consideration
of the shortness of life. Perhaps an ar
gument equally effective could be drawn
from its length.
1t is terrible to think, that an erroneous
opinion, or a bad habit, formed in youth,
may continue to work evil upon the char
acter and fortunes of the individual for ff-
ty years-subtracting something from eve
ry days happiness and efficiency, and ad-
ding something to every days burthen and
peril. 1t is, also, an inspiring considera-
tiOn, that good principle, a noble i'm
pulse, a piece of valuable knowledge well
implanted in the soul, will 90 on produ-
cling a revenue Of good deeds and inward
joy while memeory holds her seat.
If we we're to evertake young man in
the moment of temptation, we should be
little disposed to speak to him of the short
ness of life. until we had exhausted all the
arguments founded on its duration!S We
should rather say to him: Young friend,
life is LOngl The deed you mediate may
be done in an hour, but it will write an IN
efaceable record on your memcry, upon
your character, upon your countenanee.-
You can never in this world outlive its
consequences. You will never be able to
forget it. Ponder well the awful length
of life. What prodigious stretch of time
is the thing We call year. What an in
terminable and intolerable procession of
griefs and miseries may be its twelve slow
ly revolving monthsl And fifty such
years have been the result of single act
of shame.
This tremendous fact of the length of
life occurs to the mind with great force,
when We observe how readily parents sac
rifce the future good of their children in
order to silence the clamorous desire of the
moment They forget that the body which
they are debilitating is the body which
their child may have to inhabit for three
quarters of century. They forget that
the character which they terminating is
that which their child will have to confront
the world. years and years after they have
gone to their account. They forget, in
word, that life is long.
