ANALYSIS OF sCHuYLkllL LIME.

ST. JoHNs COLLEGE, ANNAPOLIS
January, II, 1860.
+. I. TYSON, Maryland State Geologisl
Dear Sir During our interview at An
napolis some months since, you expressed
the opinion that the analysis of lime for
publication in your reports should be of
samples taken as The cargo is deiirered
on The farm. You will remember that /
told you that had such a sample taken last
April, while on a visit to my farm. Iannex
the analysis, and think that it represents one
of the best varieties of the ..Schuylkill Lime
of Pennsylvania. The sample was taken
before II was slaked, and represents a great
many Jumps from different parts of cargo
of 1000 or 1900 bushels. These were pow
dered and fairly sampled--thc balance of the
sample being preserved in glass in our cabi
net.
paid III cents per bushel unslaked, and
have since obtained 900 bushels from the
same source. The sample taken from the
second load was taken beneath the surface
of the heap, and from several parts Of the
heap after it had been slaked for several
weeks on my farm.
am thus particular in giving you the
circumstances under which this sample was
taken--as you told me that it was your in
tcntion to procure samples representing the
lime that the manufacturer sells to the far
mer, land not such as is sent for analysis. y
The cargo was accidentally" presented
at the landing during my visit to my farm,
and the captain assured me that it was from
the quarries of w. b. RAMBO, near Norris
town, Montgomery county, Pennsylvania.

RonHEhY.-Some rascals broke into the book
and periodical store of Mr.. Butler. Friday night
and robbed him Of goods to the value Of about
$50. They went up the alley into the yard and
entered the store by bursting open the back door.
They do not seem to have lighted the gas, hut
depended ON matches for sufficient light They
went to one OF the cases and stole quite quanti-
ty of gold pens and some other small articles OF
value. 1t is surprising that they did not steal
more while they were at it as the case was full OF
valuable goods easily carried. The robbery was
committed between four and five o'clock this
morning Mr.. Sparks, who lives next door, was
awakened by the noise the parties made in lcav-
ing, he says there were two of them, ms he saw
one and heard the other just as they left Nc
clue has as yet, been obtained to the guilty
| parties.

Fire Company took place Wednesday evening at
Odd Fellows Hall. The attendance, we regret to
saywas not sufficiently large to realize consider
able amount for the Company, but the affair was
very quiet, very orderly, and very enjoyable, and
all present were highly pleased.
A CHEF ENoINEER.-Now that the more etli-
cient organization of the Department is attract
ing general attention, and City Council is mani.
Testing liberal spirit in the direction Of this much
needed reform their is II growing conviction that
there should be a Chief Engineer for the Depart

of many fires shows that some better system mus
be arranged, by which the direction of operations
at fires can be in the hands of one man instead o.

An ode to duness would be especially appro-
pirate in Wilmington, just now, and if Pope
were yet with us he would doubtless write new
Dunciad. Business Is dull, news is dull, and
everything else except the weather, which, Of
late, has been exceedingly sharp The dullness
seems also TO extend to social circles. There
have been but few private parties, and only one
or two public ones. The few amlisements offer
ed our people are not literally patronized and
Lecturers talk to but half an audience. In short,
Wilmington seems to have become turbid.
