HD~ President johnson has ap-
pointed the Hon Asa Owen Adds. Of
st. Adams, Consul to Nice, desirable
position lately occupied by the Hon.
William Slade, of Ohio. Nice is an
attractive seaport town, belonging to
the French Dominions, on the Medi-
terranean with population of 80, 900.
1t is noted as resort for English in
vahds. Its climate is remarkably
mild and salubrious, and Judge Adds
will resign his position as Associate
Judge of the Supreme court at an ear
ly day and will accept the post tend
cred to him by the President. in the
hope of restoring the failing health of
some members of his family. During
the time Judge Adds has occupied a
seat upon the bench, he has gained n
wide reputation for extensive LEGAL
learning and scholarly attainments
and he has won troops Of friends
throughout the State, by his genial
address and social character His ex-
perlence and requirements will enable
him to discharge the duties of the
new position, to which he has been
appointed, with honor to himself and
with credit to his country, The sal
any Of Consul to Nice is, we believe,
only 1880 per annum.

however holds that Judge Coursol

Office in not reporting to the govern

course by saying that he acted as

ceD~ Since the failure of the attempt
to lay the Atlantic telegraph, new
route has been suggested, which pre-
sents important advantages over that
hitherto tried. The line runs from
Cape Race to the Island of Flores. dis
lance nine hundred aud eighty four
geographical miles. From Flores to
the Island of Fuyal, less than one
hundred miles. From Fayal to St.
Miguel, about one hundred and ten
miles; and from ST. Miguel to Cape

about eight hundred miles. The com
paratively short submarine stretches
by this line are not its only advantage.

arrangements, between several gov,

exclusive control of one leading power.

Peter Martins Hot AirFurnaCes,
COLUMBUS, February 18th, 1866.

't- COLUMBUS, February 10Th, 1860.
To lOhom this may Concern
Peter Martin, of Cincinnati, has placed
his PATENT IMPROVED HoT AIR FURNACES
in our High School and District School No.
s. The Furnaces in District No. have
been in use two years; those in the High
School during this winter. So far they
have given entire satisfaction. For eff
cheney in warming, quality of heat, econo-
my of fuel, and promptness of action, they
deserve special commendation. ! cheer
fully recommend Mr.. Martins Furnaces to
any who may desire an excellent mode OF
heating. E. ID. KINGSLEY,
5- Supt. of Public Schools of Columbus.
In CIRcLEvILLE, Feb. 10th, 1865.
D. The Warm Air Furnace invented and
manufactured by Mr.. Peter Martin, of Gin
scinnati, was put into the Union school
building OF this city in November last, and
thus far it has given entire satisfaction. 1t
surpasses other furnaces in the following
important particulars: 1t has, compare
lively, a greater heating surface; produces
a larger volume of heat with a given amount
Of fuel; the condition of the air in respect
Sotemperature, moisture and purity, is su-
peri0r; the admission of cold air, the sup
ply of warm air for the several rooms, and
the fires, are more easily regulated.
To avoid scorching and decomposing the
mir, as is done, to some extent, by other hot
airftarnaces, and to secure to each room an
abundant supply of pure, fresh air, warmed
to pleasant temperature, as well as to pro-
tect the wrought-iron air-fues from
the effects of the fire, it is essential that
the warm air-hueS leading to the school
rooms, should be at least twelve
inches in diameter. This viii insure the
influx of such a large and rapid current OF
fresh air as to prevent the Wrought-iron
flues from being overheated, and thus secure
the durability of the furnace, and keep the
warm air In healthfnl condition. 1t Is
deemed proper to State in this connection,
that our Board of Education was induced
to order Mr.. Martins Furnace, because two
other furnaces had been previously used in
our school ediflce without satisfactory re-
sults, and because, after careful examina-
tloh Of q large number OF furnaces and
other modes Of warming school houses and
other public edifices, not only In Western,
In; Also in Eastern cities, Mr.. Martins was
iieved TO be decidedly the best.
