Sir: The great difficulty in procuring brandy suf-

The CURATIVE EFFECTS OF GRAPES
DR.. Herpin, of Metz, has published very
interesting account Of the curative effects
of grapes. in various disorders Of the
body. They act firstly, by introducing
large quantities Of fluids into the system,
which, passing through the blood, carry
off, by perspiration and other excretions,
the etfete and injurious materials of the
body; secondly as vegetable nutritive
agent. Employed nationally and method
ically, aided by suitable diet and regimen,
the grape produces most important chang.
es in the system, in favoring organic
translnutations, in contributing healthy
materials to the repair and reconstruction
Of the various tissues, and in determining
the removal of vitiated matter, which has
become useless and injurious to the sys-
TEN. Directed by the skillful physician,
this valuable curative agent can be made
to produce the most varied effects on the
constitution. 1t also possesses the ad-
vantage of being acceptable to invalids.
The treatment lasts from three to six
weeks. The quantity of grapes that may
DO consumed varies from one to four
pounds q day. commencing with small
quantities, which are gradually increased.
The skins and seeds must not be swallow
cd. IL the absence of grapes, the most
beneficial effects may be obtained from
dried raisins, provided a quantity of wa
ter, sufficient to satisfy the thirst they
create, be taken at the same time; or they
may be stewed in the same manner as
pruneS.

SADNESS OF Tue SEA AS AFFECTING
NAvIGATIoN.-Surprisc has been express
ed that vessels going to Sebastopol take
smaller cargoes than if they were only
going to Constantinople, or that they di.
minish their cargo at the latter port be
fore entering the Black Sea. The reason
is this-the density of water Of different
seas is more or less considerable, and the
vessels sailing in them sink more or less,
according to their density. The density
arises. from the quantity of salt contained
in the water and consequently, the saltcr
the sea is, the less vessel sinks in it,
AS, too, the more sail vessel carries, the
deeper she penetrates the alter, it follows
that the more salt the water the greater
the quantity of sail that can be carried
Now, as the Black Sea is sixteen times
less salt than the Mediterranean, a vessel
which leaves Toulon or Marseilles for Sc.
baStopol must take smaller cargo than
one that only goes to Constantinople, and
. still smaller one If it is to enter the Sea
Of Azoff, which is eighteen times less salt
than the Mediterranean. The Meditcrra.
mean is twice as salt as the Atlantic; once
more than the Adriatic; five times more
than the Caspian Sea twelve times more
than the fonian Sea. and seventeen fines
more than the sea Of Marnora. The Dead
Sea contains more salt than any other sea;
it is asserted, on good authority, that two
tons of its water yielded $50 pounds OIL
salt and magnesia.
