General Scott.

General Scott kept open house on New
Years. He has broken Up housekeeping and
has rooms at Delmonicos In the elegant
mansion Of Moses H. Grinnell, corner Of Fifth
avenue and Fourteenth street, with several
spacious dwelling houses added to it. Del
monieO has his uptown establishment In a
suite Of parlOrs on the lower floor, furnished
in style suited to his rank, General Scott
has his headquarters. His rooms are such as
military gentleman of position and fortune
would desire. They are Ornameuted with
busts, statues, maps, paintings and imple-
ments Of war. His daughter lives near him
and her children, intelligent and sprightly,
may be seen roaming round the rooms, climb
ing his knee for a kiss, or q smile, or a kind
word, and throwing halo Of youth and pleas
ure over the home and declining years of the
invalid hero. General Scott is great favor
lite Of the ladies. Every day rare aud fresh
flowers are laid by fair hands on his table fill
ing the room with exquisite sweetness. Fruits
Z Of all kinds are sent in to HIM daily, and of
these attentions he is especially proud, and
makes particular mention Of them to all
familiar friends who visit him. His bodily
health is not firm. Five years ago he met
with an accident that effected his spine, since
which time he has not been able to sit on his
horse, Indeed, he has not been on q horse
but once since the accident, and then he was
helped on and of, remaining but few mo-
ments that his portrait might be painted. He
seldom leaves his room, and walks about with
great difficulty. BHthis mind is just as clear
as when his cannon pealed along our frontiers
in the war of 1872, He is conversant with
all the acts of the Government and of the
army. He reads everything that relates to
our national peril, has his own decided Opin-
ions of movements and of men, and expresses
himself freely, without the veil of secresy or
reserve, about the war, its duration and ter
minatiOn, the courage and skill of our gen
erals, and the obstacles that still lie in our
path.

Art Of Swimming.

Men are drowned by raising their
arms above water, the unbuoyedweight
of which depresses the head. Other
animals have neither motion nor ability
to act in a similar manner, and there
fore swim naturally. When a man falls
into deep water, he will to the sur
face, and continue there if he does not
elevate his hands. If he moves his
hands under water in any way he
plcases, his head will rise so high as
to allow him liberty to breathe, and if
he uses his legs as in the act Of walking
(Or rather walking up stairs his should
ers will rise above the water, so that
homay usele exertion with his hands,
or apply them to some other purpose.
These directions may be found highly
advantageous III preserving life.

Fair Play.

Our excellent neighbor, the Tribune,
asks whether it is not possible by
mutual consent to adjourn the Presi-
dental canvass? It is just about as
practicable as to adjourn the coming
spring and to postpone crocuses until
May. The spring is opening. The
canvass has begun. The signs of it
appear in the Tribune every day.
Upon the same page Of that paper,
which asks the question of postpone
ment, we find, under the head Of
special dispatch from Washington, an
alIusion to the proposition of inquiry
into Secretary Chase's regulation Of
trade in the Mississippi Valley as a
" tender Of services to butcher the
reputation of a statesman to whom
the nation owes a debt of gartitude."
Just below we find: ct is stated
here in military circles that this
Florida operation was devised and
ordered by the President"
Very well. It is stated By common
sense that such paragraphs do not
mean a postponement of the Presi-
Dental canvass but that one of them,
if the Tribune will pardon such Ian
guage, is a "dig" at the President,
and the other ''boost" for the Sec
retary of the Treasury.
The campaign for the nomination
has begun. The Tribune takes natur-
ally an active part in it. It is opposed
to the nomination of Mr.. Lincoln, and
is doing what it can to create public
opinion against it. Itsays that Union
men viii make a grave mistake if they
do not apply the one-term principle to
Mr.. Lincoln. Nobody can quarrel
with it for saying so, however opinions
may differ. But let us have fair play
The Tribune is not an ostrich. Itsurely
does not seriously suppose that it is
taking no side any more than it can
seriously believe that the President
ordered an army to advance into the
enemy's country without skirmishers
whatever may be " stated " in military
circles. But it does seriously injure
itself, both in the estimation, Of its
friends with whom it differs and those
with whomit agrees, when itinsinuates,
and hints, and shrugs, and sneers,
instead of frankly owning and main
tanning its opposition to the renomina-
ton Of Lincoln.-Harper's Weekly.

VIII Water Burn?


We mean. can it be 50 burned as to
economise and replace other fuel? The
discrelit thrown on the affirmative of this
question by Paines abOrtive quackeFics at
Worcester, some years since, have not dis
couraged further researches and expert
ments, which IN one case-we know M
but in others-already promise the most
important and beDcfeent results. Ir
Mr. William Z. Hagan, an educated
and practical chemist, Of Troy, n. Y, has
for some years been at work on the prob
lem; and his success Is embodied in a now
process which may be seen in operation in
an orlinary parlor stove in the rear Of t q
Market Bank, No g Nassau street, and il
a furnace stove at No. 494 Broadway.
TIE water, contained in q boiler on top Of
the stove or furnace, may be supplied duly
as it usually is to a boiler placed there
to maintain proper humidity in the aiI
mosphere, OF By fecdpipe from a main
/ or reservoir wherever (us in this city, 3
supply may thus be had An ordinary
stove viii consume from three to four gal
Ions perday and this Is conveyed, through
a pipe on the inner surflce Of the stove,
but avoiding dicet contact with the coal
4 or other fuel, til it is emitted, in the form
Of superheated steam, at the bottom Of tho
fire, where it is dec imposed BY the con-
tact into hydrogen and earbonie acid, gts,
which instantly combine afresh, producing
carbonic oxide, which undergOes a still
| further combination or combustion on be-
ling presented to the air with large de-
yelopment Of calorio or heat at each sue
cessive stage Of combinatiin. er ODD
Mr.. Hagau, of course, does not pretend
to dispense with carbon or fuel by his in
venti6n, but to economic its use to tBe
| last degree. In other words insteal0 Of
allowing half the carbon to escape IN the
form of carbonic acid, lie consumes 1t en-
tirely, leaving nothing to escape as smoke
but water, and perhaps little ammonia.
He thus reduces the consumption Cf car
bon or coal one half, while maintaining a
more temperate and equab.e combustion
with stcadier and more healthfA heat.
The atmosphere of apartments or houses
heated by his stoves or furnaces is more
bland and summer-like than any other pro-
cess of combustion can supply. And, as
the process is by no means expensive
adding perhaps one-third to the cost Of a
stove, and one-tenth to that Of furnace
! We predict for his invention a rapid and
/ general adOplion.-N z. Tribune. -

Enemy-makeTS.

There are some children who seem as
if they could scarcely move a step with
out breaking Or spelling something.
Whatever of a fragile nature they lift Or
handle, they are sure to let fall OF knock
over. Whatever they attempt to do, they
do Ill, so that it would have been far bet
ter let alone IF introduced into a gar
den, their feet find It quite impossible to
keep off the parterres, and their fingers
TO abstain from plucking the flowers In
the parlor, they are perpetually raising
unearthly screams from cats, or dogs, On
whose toes, tails, or feelings they have
trampled, or setting up younger children
than themselves into squalling fits, in con
sequence Of pinches, cuffs and bruises
which they infiot-to all appearance IN
consciously. Wherever they 90, their
course is marked, like that Of hurricane,
by the wreck which they leave behind.
An iIl-luck seems to attend them in all
positions and all circumstances, and so
many and so bitter are the complaints
which they give rise to- that one almost
pities even while suffering from them.
The enemy makers are a class a good
deal like this department Of the juvenile
world. We would define them as persons
having an unfortunate aptitude, by word
and deed, to give offence to their fellow
creatures, each of whom, so offended, be-
comes of course a deadly foe for life
Enemy makers are often very meritorious
persons We have known them possessed
of some Of the most popular Of the viz
tues, besides being clever and amusing.
In their general conduct, and even intheir
general manners, there may be nothing
exeeptionable. But all this is of no avail
against the leading peculiarity. Every
now and then they commit some blunder
or utter some speech, which throws one
of their neighbors into irreconcilable hos
tility.. This person becomes Of course a
focus on center for the diffusion Of unfav-
orable sentiments respecting the offender.
He speaks i'll himself, and engages as
many of his friends to do likewise as pos
sible. Thus, a single dry word viii per
haps create a score Of ilI-speakers. It IS
needless to remark how these foci VIII at
length become so numerous, as to absorb
nearly the whole Of the offenders neigh
bors, leaving him hardly one who is vii
ling to keep on fair terms with him.

Important Legislation i'm West
Virginia.

The West Virginia Legislature adjourned
on Thursday, after session of forty-fve days,
being exactly the period prescribed by the
Constitution. Besides resolutions they passed
fOrty-eight acts. The general appropriation
bill amounts to S19O,365. Special apprOpria-
tions to the amount of $4,000 were also
made. We condense from the Wheeling In
telligencer the following facts
The tax law passed on the 29th ult. imposes
q tax Of thirty cents on every hundred dollars
Of all real and personal estate, besides a
school tax of ten cents on the hundred dollars,
and g capitation tax Of one dollar on all males,
black or white of the age Of twenty-one and
upward. Insurance and Express Companies
are required to make special returns Of the
business transacted by them, and on the
amounts 50 returned they arc to pay tax of
three per cent, and are then to be exempt
from county -levios, school tax, or any State
tax, besides that imposed by this law.
By an act passed January 26th, and
amended February 9th, the supervisors of
every county are authorized, from time to
time during the war, TO borrow money for the
support and relief of the soldiers families,
and the payment Of bOuntes to soldiers who
have volunteered or may hereafter do so. The
act gives the supervisor ample powers TO pro-
vide for the payment Of such loans by county
levies,
