PROFESSOR PEPPER is still drawing
crowds to the Polytechnic, in London,
lecturing on the ghost: "a valuable pic
ture, Significantly called Burning to
death and saving from DEATH is also
given by Mr.. Pepper, in the course OF
which the simplicity Of the means by
which those dreadful catastrophes from
fire, which now almost daily shock the
public, may be entirely avoided, is Illus
trated in the most striking manner. 4
flame is applied to the ordinary muslin
dress of lady placed on lay figure ana
in an instant it is ablaze; and though wet
blankets are at hand (as we know they
never are when these accidents occur Ill
eyery-d day life) and are instantly applied to
eytinguish the dress on the figure, they
cannot do so till there has been flame
enough to show how little chance any un-
happy girl to whom such an accident might
really happen, would have Of escaping with
life. 4 real young lady then enters, clad
in the same kind of muslin dress, dipped
in the cheap solution, which can be OBJ
tained at chemists, and which renders it
utterly incombustible. 10 this young
lady's dress the fame is everywhere liber-
ally applied, but quite in vain as far a:
combustion is concerned. 1t will shrivel
and SINCE, but light it will not. The ex-
citement produced by this illustration OF
the value of the experiment is very great,
but it is excitement of the legitimate kind
the excitement produced by apparent
danger, with the sense of the most absolute
security. 1t is seeing Fire Queen who
cannot be injured, B!ondin who cannot
break his neck,

THE GREAT IRISH ExoDUs.-With all
boasted sympathy of English statesmen
and newspapers for the horrors Of the
American war, it is doubtful whether Viz
ginia, "reeking with blood and fire." has
really suffered more from the contending
armies upon her soil thin Ireland by the
peaceful process of emigration, under the
silent but deadly influence Of English leg
islation. War sweeps like tempest, pros
trating stately institutions and cherished
monuments; but the grass grows freshly
upon its track, and few brief years efaces
everything save its memory, and implants
70 trees and flowers fresher verdure.
But it is not so with this insidious, awful
Irish emigration, which leaves the land
desolation and misery, and exhausts 1t
of all recuperative energy. The Insh
people have come at last to regard Ameri-
can war as far better than AngloIrish
peace. When attempts are made to dis
suadc an Irish farmer, mechanic or laborer
from emigrating to the United States by
doleful accounts of the slaughter Of
AIeagher's brigade at Charlottesville and
Fredericksburg, the answer is, "Better be
killed abroad than starve at home" And
the people act on this sentiment. Never
before did emigration attain such propor-
tons. 1t overleaps the capacities of COM
merce for transportation. The railroads
to the Irish seaboard are thronged by the
flower of the country, anxious to reach an
American ship and escape from living
death, At the last accounts there were
more persons waiting for passage in Cork.
Galway. Liverpool and the great American
shipping ports, than could be accommoda-
ted for month to come-and this, too,
in advance of the usual season Of emigra-
ton, which does not commence I'LL March.
The debates in the English Parliament on
this subject show that the ruling classes
have at last taken alarm al the consequent
cos of the wholesale transfer Of the Irish
population to add to the strength OF
foreign and rival power. 1t was shown
that the country is progressing toward
pauperism, in proportion commensurate
with the loss of the population. An in
creased excise tax on spirits resulted in
diminution of the revenue. Manufactures
are being closed up as fast as the hands
emigrate to America, and the farmers are
compelled to follow their laborers to a
new world 1t was shown that lrelandis Is
becoming a wilderness. All these facts,
and more, were stated in the House Of
Commons, and were not disputed. The
Palmerston officials attempted to gloss the
matter over, but did not succeed. The
debates produced powerful impress
sion on ali who heard and read them, that
the Irish people are impelled by an un-
erring instinct of self-preservation on fly
ing from land which, under English law,
has ceased to afford them anything but a
Dauper's grave.-Ne,o York san. ...-.

THACKERAY says a woman's heart is like a
lithographer's stone-what is once written
upon it can never be rubbed out This is so.
Let an heiress once fix her affections on a
stable boy. and all the preaching in the world
will not get her thoughts above oat-boxes and
curry combs "What is written upon her
heart can't he rubbed out" This fact shows
itself not only in love but religion. Men will
change their gods a dozen times, woman
never. To convert a Sister of Charity to
Methodism would require greater power
than you would have to make use of to over

WILL WATER BURN We mean, can It
be so burned rs 10 cconomiZc and replace
other fuel: The discredit thrown OH the az
tirmative of this question by Paine'S abortive
quackeri9s at Worcester, some years since,
have not discouraged further researches and
experiments, which in one case-we know
not but in others-already promise the most
important and benehcent results. VIM. Z.
Hagan, an educated and practical chemist,
of Troy, New York, has for some years been
at work on the problem; and his success is
embodied in new process which may be
seen in operation in an ordinary parlor stove
in the rear Of the Market Bank, No. 81 Mas
sau street, and in a furnace stove at No. 49f
Broadway. The water, contained in boiler
on the top Of the stove or furnace, may be
supplied daily as it usually is to boiler
placed there to maintain 4 proper humidity
in the atmosphere, or BY feed-pipe from
main or reservoir wherever, as in this city, a
supply may thus be had. An ordinary stove
will consume from three to four gallons per
day and this is conveyed through a pipe on
the inner surface Of the stove, but avoiding
direct contact with the coal or other fuel, till
il is emitted, in the form of superheated
steam, at the bottom Of the fire, where it is
decomposed by the contact into hydrogen and
carbonic acid gas, which instantly combine
afresh. producing carbonic oxide, which un-
dergoes still further combination or combus-
tion on being presented to the air, with
large development of caloric or heat at each
successive stage or combination. IHagan,
of course, does not pretend to dispense with
carbon or fuel by his invention, but to econ
omize its use TO the last degree. In other
words, instead of allowing half the carbon to
escape in the form Of carbonic acid, he con-
sumed it entirely, leaving nothing to escape
as smoke but water, and perhaps a little am
monia. He thus reduces the consumption
of carbon or coal one-half, while maintain
ing more temperate and equable combus-
tion with steadicr and more healthful heat.
The atmosphere of apartments or houses
heated BY his stoves or furnaces is more bland
and summer-like than any other process Of
combustion can supply. And, as the process
is by no means expcnsive-adding perhaps
one-third to the cost of 4 stove, aad one
tenth to that of a furnace-we predict for his
invention rapid and general adoption.-N.
