PULvER1zED TURPESTINE--Th Russian
Admiralty are experimenting upon the
uses to which pulverized turpentine
can be applied By adapting lamp
to it, a fame two feet high was pro-
duced, which easily melted steel and
copper. A small steamboat, twenty
four feet long, with engines of two
horse power, attained speed of six
knots by the consumption of twelve
pounds Of pulverizsd turpentine. The
steam was raised in ten minutes by the
use of the turpentine lamp. Several
steamboats,, whose engines are moved
by turpentine fuel exclusively are al
ready plying on the Neva.

Forney, in one of his letters to the

tradicted falsehood, as follows:
You have seen that the Mobile Register,
the organ e tee Alabams traitors, and now
the urgent advocate Of Johnson's policy,
has inscr bed upon its masthead the name
Of Robert T. Lee IS "the States rights
Democratic candidate for the Presidency in
1868" This announcement, made simulta-
neous with extensive public demon trations
Of disioyalty in the same city Of Mobile, in
which cheers for Jefferson Davis and An
drew johnson were exultingly commingle5,
is intended by the editor OF the Re- lister, the
notorious rebel Forsyth, as a deliberate in
suit to She country.
Forney adheres to the old maxim OF
his party" lie well stuck 10 is as
good as the truth u The Mobile Register
has done 10 such thing as that ascribeG
to it; and, Of course, Mr. Forsyth has
not offered "a deliberate insult to the

insult TO his readers by repeating q
falsehood to deceive them.
