OPERATIONS BEFORE CHARLESTON
EXPERIMENTING WITH "GREEK FIRE"
"A letter in the New. York Times, from
Morris Island, says: -.
A numher of experiments with Greek
Fire has been recently made BY Mr.. Short,
the inventor, in presence of several officers
of rank, with a view Of contradicting the
impression that the shells containing the
fire exploded prematurely. The gun was
placed in position on the beach, and poin-
ted seaward Ten tin tubes, each Of which
is three inches in length and three-fourths
Of an inch in diameter, and filled with the
the material composing the Greek fire, were
then dropped in a conical shell and filed
round with powder. :.
The first shell thrown exploded prema-
furely, in consequence, it is said, of ade.
feet in the fuse. The shells subsequently:
filed had white lead placed round the fuse
cap, and, with perhaps one or two excep-
tions, fully accomplished all that had been.
claimed for them. A dozen shells were
fred, nine of which exploded ata:distance
of 1,200 yards. - : ? ss.s
To show the powerful effect of the Greek
fire, number of tubes were lighted and
submerged in water, where they were al.
lowed to remain until nearly burned, and
then taken out, but the bright blue fame
was not extinguished., Other tubes were
lighted and completely buried in moistsand,
which was closely packed, but this also
failed to quench the FIRE. The tubes burn
for minute and half: When first igni-
ted, the fire issues from one end of the tube
with fierce, rushing sound, not unlike
that which accompanies the fight of:a rock
ct, and extends the distance of yard, but
it soon sinks down to dazzling blue fame
of about two inches in length, losing its
peculiarity of sound, and thus continues to
burn to the end. An ignited tube in a
bason of water gives the latter the appear.
ance Of boiling. It emits q heavy .sulphn.
rous smoke in large quantities.

=. RIcHMoND, Oct. 26.-The New York
Herald of the22d contains q letter from
London dated the 10Th, protesting to give
the outline ola treaty to be entered between
the Pope, Austria, France; Spain, and the
Confederate States, in which thslatter stip-
;uiates, upon guarantee Of her independence,
never to attempt to annex any portion OF
Mexico. Cuba, Porto Rico, andto aid in
Erepelling any armed Intervention Of the
United States in the affairs Of Mexico or
theI Spanish West India Colonies. The
writer says, it is feared if The Lincoln ad-
ADMINISTRATION should succeed in conquering
the South, it would undertake to rule all
America by Seward eventually, and consid-
ers the whole civilized world would soon
become too contracted for the field ofits
operations. He then intimates, at some
length, that the best policy Of Lincoln, M
der the circumstances, is to make peace
withthe South and let two republics work
out the problem of mans capacity for self
government. The letter closes by recon-.
mending Bennett to advocate the peace
policy. The Herald closes an editorial in
illusion to the lettes to which 1t attaches
some importance, by urging another Higo-
rous blow at the rebellion. By prolonging
the war, we increase the dangers Of Euro
'pean intervention and war throughout Chris.

dent to the life he must necessarily lead,
and especially in days of sickness and weak

from friends at home, his appreciation Of

to make appropriate Acknowledgements IN
order that the kind friends who have con-
tributed to his comfort may not only know
that their favors have been received, but

AN EFFEcTUAL CURE FOR THE EAR.
AcHE.-Take small piece of cotton.bat
ting or wool, make depression in the Gen.
ire with the end of the finger, and fill it
with as much pulverized black pepper as
will rest on half dime. Gather it into
ball and tie it up; dip the ball into sweet
oil, and insert it into the ear, covering the
latter with cotton or wool and use a band
age or cap to retain it ia its place. A most
instant relief will be experienced, and the
application Is SO gentle that an infant will
not be injured by it, but experience relief
as well as adults.
