Arrival Of Arms from Europe.

The Richmond Dispatch copies
the following from the Forsyth
(Ca.9 Journal, which that paper
very imprudently published. As
''the- cat is let out OF the wallet,
however, the readers of the Or
SERVER have as much right to see
the animal as anybody else
Hence our apology for circulating
it. believing that no9further- harm
can come of its republication:
Several days since an iron-clad
steamer, ,fromL Liverpeol, with $500
rifles and Is cannon, blankets, and
clothing for soldiers, landed safe at
Savannah. The blocl1ading YES
sells were not in sight. This is a
new steamer incased in sheet iron
an inch thick and is now the prop
erty of the Confederate States
Our informant saw the vessel HIM
self went on deck, talked with the
captain. who told hiln that there
were three or four more vessels
of the same sort on the way; and
as soon as the steamer could be
manned under the Confederate
government, the blockade of Abra-
ham I, would be blown to the
s.four winds. fa4fe
sHe said that the arrival of this
vessel had caused considerable ae-
tivity among the merchants IN
sending off the coffee, tea, salt,
etc, to country merchants, while
these articles are at a very high
figure. He heard the opinion ex-
pressed by knowing ones, that IN
less than forty days Rio Coffee
could be bought in Savannah at
12a cents. Large quantities are
stored In Cuba, awaiting the re
moval of the blockade"

Conliscalion in New York.

! The n. Y. Herald, of a late date
in its money article, makes this sig
nificant statement =
at would be we'll for the Secre
tary of State and the Secretary OF
the Treasury to have an occasional
interchange of views, as the recent
proceedings of the one are serious
! ly interfering with the policy q
the other. Within the past few
days the agents Of the Secretary
of State have been constantly run
ming up and down Wall street III
chase of Southern money. They
have seized $4,000 in one place.
$4,000 in another, $4,000 in a
third, a box of papers in one bank,
roll of notes IN another, bum
die of bonds in another, a trunk
of vah,ables inafourth-the whole
belonging or supposed to belong to
citizens of the States now con-
trolled by the rebels. Tie conse-
onehces of these confiscatlons are
a gain to the United States of per-
haps $4,000 or $4,000, and a
loss of several millions to the city
OF New York; for the moment it
became known that Mr. Seward S
agents were on the track of South
ern money, every bank and banker
made haste to remit all he had to
Europe for safety-rightly deem
ing his duty to his client para
mount to every otherconsideratlon.
The consequence of this sudden
transmission of money to Europe
has been a considerable reduction
of the bank deposits here-a rise
in exchange to within J per cent.
of the specie rate-and general
disturbance of the money market
which, with other causes, has re-
duccd the popular subscriptions to
the national lean of 90 per cent.
1t may be very right and proper,
perhaps, to despoil the Southern
ers who, re lying upon our honor,
sent us their money to keep, when
they could nos trust the rebel gov
ernment which had usurped an-
thority over them; but surely it is
a fatal error to crafty patriotic
zeal in this way, when the effort
convulses our money market, dis
turbs the foreign exchanges, and
checks subscriptions to the popu-
lar loan" I.-

Coed for the Thirsty Soldifrs.

The Nashville Patriot says that
~extreme thirst is one of the most
severe trials the active soldier has
to encounter During a long
march and on tie field of long
and hotly contested battle, he is
often almost overcome with fatigue
and thirst. An old frontier-nan.
who has had much experience on
tie Western borders and on the
plains, suggests to us the following
as the best remedy and prevepta,
tive cf thirst that has ever been
discovered: After a meal, take
the coffee grounds, boil them over
again, and pour it-off into yous
canteen and let it cool for your
next march. 1t is not only nu'
trative and stimulating, but it will
ouench the thirst more efeetually
than water. 1t will so two 'os
three times as far Us water. Also
take the coffee grounds, after be
ing thus used, dry them, and put
them in your pocket, and chew
them at intervals on the. march,
or during any arducus service, and
they will likewise repress thirst, and
satiate greatly the cravings of hun.
ger. This course has been tried
with the most gratifying results
and is worthy Of a trial by every
soldier in the service.

The Kaleidoscope,

When an object is placed be
tween two parallel plain mirrors
each produces an image of its own
and reproduces the image retiectee
in it from the other. This image
of an image is again reflected by
each to the other, and thus series
iof images is produced, till the rays
becomes SO faint by successive re-
fections as to be no longer dis
icernabIe. When the mirrors are
placed at right angles to each
ether, an object between tifemforms
three images-one produced by
each separately, and one by a two
fold reflection from both. Placed 80
us TO form from each other an angle
of sixty degrees, the two mirrors
viii produce five images; at forty
FIVE degrees, seven. This princi-
pie is applied in the Kaleidoscope
invented by Sir David Brewster.
The instrument consists of two
narrow strirs Of glass running
lcngthwise through a tube, and
forming with each other an angle
of sixty or forty-Gve degrees. One
end of the tube to which tie eye
is to be applied is covered with
clear glass. The other end ter
inmates in acell formed by two
parallel pieces of glass TN eighth
Of an inch apart, the outer one of
which is ground, to prevent exter-
nal objects from marring the ef-
fects. This cell contains beads
or small pieces of glass of differ
.ent colors, free to move among
themselves. On applying an eye
to the tube, we see the objects in
the cell multiplied by repeated
reflections from the mirrors, and
Systematically arranged, with their
images, around commen centre.
By shaking the tube, the objects
change position, and new combi-
nations are presented.

The West vs.. The East.

The Evansville { II d. Journa
lets off the following upon it.
.'cowardly" Z" eastern friends, whc
have made the war, and are I'm
willing to fight. There is no doubt
truth in the Indictment:
The movement Of troops from
the West to the East, is being
severely censured by the leading
papers of the country. The State
of Penns, lvania, to whose high pro
itective tariff notions we are IN
part indebted for this war. and
the States of New York and
Massachusetts,, whose leading poll
ticians have for years past, IN both
Houses of Congress, done all IN
their power to aggravate the dif-
ficulty between the North and
South, now stand back cowardly
and requil e of the West the pro
lection of the Federal capital. =
The citizens of the seaboard towns
pursue their accustomed avoca-
tons, and, as we are told by the
New York Herald, are doing bet
ter than in times past, while we
of the West, cut off from the
ocean by a blockade Of the Miss
issippi, are asked to leave our homes
and defend their firesides.
The people of the West demand
of those States the quotas neces-
sary to make up the army of five
hundred thousand men. If the
eastern men, who have shown
themselves so valiant IN words,
are too cowardly to volunteer,
they should be drafted, and re-
iieve our regiments OF the duty
of protecting their trontier.-
Within a week six of Fremonts
regiments left him to reinforce the
Indiana quorum on the Ailegha-
MES. At the same time five new
Texas regiments were on their
way to Missouri. Eastern papers
and correspondents are finding
fault with Fremont because Ms
souri has not been reclaimed. =
Tie truth is, that when Fremont
was prepared to abandon his de-
fensive attitude and assume an
aggressive one, he finds his resour-
ces impaired by draft Of troops
from the East.

Gmd Advice 10 Farmers.

In connection with this subject
we would call attention to the
slbjoined excellent recipe for
m king very superior Cider, which,
however, it occurs to us could more
appropriately becalled Apple Vine
than Apple Cider:
Ho,e to hare good Cider.-Prof.
Horsford, Of Harvard University,
has recently published a recipe for
improving and preserving cider,
by means of which the; progress
of the vinous and acetic fermenta-
tons may be arrested at pleasure,
and the cider preserved in Just
such state as may be desired
A correspondent of the Boston
journal says, .
Put the cider In clean casks or
barrels, and. allow it to ferment
from one to three weeks, according
as the weather is cool or warm
When it has attained to lively
fermentation, add to each gallon
three-fourths of o pound of white
sugar, and let the whole ferment
again until it possesses nearly the
brisk pleasant taste which it is de-
sirable should be permanent
Pour out quart of the cider and
mix with it one-quarter of lb sui
phite of lime for every gallon the
cask contains. Stir until it is in
timately mixed; pour the emulsion
into the liquid. Agitate the CON
tents of the cask thoroughly for
a few minutes, then let it rest that
the cider may settle. Fermenta-
ton will be arrested at once, end
will not be resumed. 1t may be
bottled in the course of a few
weeks, or it may be allowed to re-
main in the cask and used on
draught. If bottled it viii be-
come sparkling cider, better than
what is called champagne wine.
Prof. Horsford, of Cambridge,
was the first to use the suIphite of
lime for this purpose, and to him
is due the credit of first calling at
tention to its usefulness. 1t is in
no respect deleterious, as the
into which the sulphatc
is changed by the liberation Of sui
phurous acid, is entirely insoluble,
and remains at the bottom of the
vessel. $500
The writer has cider prepared
in this way two years since which
has remained unchanged, and is
now beverage of unsurpassed
excellence. The sulphite of lime,
aot the sulphate must be used.

What. is Martial Law?

-. Al the present cIlSlo Vlie olS uih-
canoe OF. a term so much used,
and with SO little accurate sense OF
its meaning, becomes unusually
Important. BouVier defines mar
tail law as sscode established for
the government of the amy and
navy of the United States" whose
principal rules are found in the
articles of war, prescribed by an
aeS of Congress, But Chancellor
Kent says this definition applies
only to military law, while mar
tial law is quite a distinct thing,
and is founded on paramount ne
cessity, and proclaimed by a miil-
tary chief. Martial law is gener-
ally and vaguely held to be a
suspension Of all ordinary civil
rights aud processes, and as such
approximates closely to a militia
ry despotism. 1t is an arbitrary
law, originating in emergencies.
In times of extreme peril to the
State, either from without or from
within, the public welfare demands
extraordinary measures. An q
martial law being proclaimed, sig
niGes that the operation Of the or
dinsry legal delays Of justice IS
suspended by the military power,
which has for the, time become SUI
preme! 1t suspends the operations
of the writ of hubeas corpus; ena-
bles persons charged with treason
to be summarily tried by court
martial instead of grand jury;
justifies searches and seizures OF
private property, and the taking
possession of public highways and
other means of communication
Involving the Highest exercise Of
sovereignty, it is, of course, capable
of great abuse, and is only to he
justified on emergencies of the most
imperative and perilous nature.
