ANEW THING FOR FIREMEN.-Col. Mar
row, Chief of the Columbus Fire Depart
ment, on yesterday instituted a series of
experiments with patent spreading noz-
Ele, which proposes to supply want long
Ifeit amongst firemen. By arrangement
placed near the base of the branch pipe,
the pipeman can regulate the direction Of
the stream of water, and throwit in a solid
round stream forward, or spread it to each
side, taking in width of about fifty feet.
The Gay street engine was takenol and
the experiments, witnessed by a large
number of our citizens, were made at
Fields Lumber Yard. On the first turn
made by the pipeman, the spread Of che
stream was alb >ut 80 feet; on the second
turn, so feet, and on the third it threw to
the distance of 150 feet. Col. Marrow pro-
nounces it one of the best and most sue
cessful Inventions he has ever seen, en-
abliug the fireman to deluge all parts of. a
room at once; and in this opinion all who
witnessed the trial concur.

PEAT IN THE SOUTHERN STATEs.-A
new and important branch of Southern
industry is developing in the swamps
of North Carolina and Virginia from
which large quantities of peat are now
extracted. In the Dismal Swamp peat
can be manufactured at 81 so per ton,
which now costs Sc in New York
Hitherto the great difficulty in making
peat serviceable was its great bulk, but
this objection has been overcome by
newly patented COMPRISING machinery,
which reduces a ton of peat to ninety
four cubic feet or third more than
ton of coal which contains sixty cubic
feet. Peat generates steam faster than
coal and is now extensively used in the
manufacturing districts ofthe New Eng
land States principally for smelling pur-
poses. 1t is more economical than coal
as it leaves residue of ashes which
contain no clinkers and these ashes are
as available as those of wood for fertil-
izing purposes. In CRATE firesit gives
a mellow glow, intense heat and but
little smoke. The peat beds in some OF
the Southern States must be as mex
haHstible as the coal fields of England,
and are not nearly SO expensive to work.

ENGLAND.

LONDON, May s.-The Peace Congress
met yesterday. The names of the plenipo-
tentiaries are as follows: England, Lord
Stanly-President France, Prince de la
Tour, Auvergne Prussia, Count Bernstroff;
Austria, Count Appoinyi; Russia, Baron
Brunow Italy, Marquis D'Azzlia; Luxem-
burg, Baron de Eornace; Belgium, M. Van
de Wyer; Netherlands, Baron Bentille. The
proceedings are secret. This much, how
ever, is known-that France is willing to ac-
cept the dismantling of the fortress of Lux
emburg, so that it will not remain men
ace. Prussia would not consent to this un
less all the powers give a guarantee of a set
Element which would bind them to engage
in war against the future designs of France
or Prussia in case they sought aggrandize-
ment in this direction. England hesitates
to give the guarantee, and the session adj
journed to enable the representatives to re-
ceive Geographic instructions from their re-
spective governments. In the meantime war
preparations are proceeding on both sides.
France is buying arms both in England and
Spain, and the Prussian troops of the regu-
lar army are being held in readiness to sup
port the garrison at Luxembourg. Bismarck
declares the situation now more serious than
ever. ,- E -
Russia is converting muskets into breech-
leaders. ..s - ,..-.,.

MONUMENT TO THE FOUNDER OF AMER
IcAN METHODIST. the recent session of
the Troy Annual Conference, a committee
was appointed to raise the necessary funds
and erect monument to the memory OF
Phillip Embury, the founder of American
Methodism. The remains of this man now
lie in beautiful cemetery in the pleasant
village of Cambridge, Washington county.
A hundred years ago, in his own house in
New York, he organized the first Methodist
society in America He also erected with
his own hands the first Methodist church in
this country, and ninistered in its pulpit
until regularly organized clergyman was
sent from England. Then he moved into
the section of the State which is now Wash
ington county, and while at work in the field
with scythe injured himself so that he died
of the wound. For a long time the where
abouts of his grave was uncertain, but
twenty years ago it was brought to light,
and the remains removedt to the burial ground
of Ashgrove Church, which then stood in
the town of Salem, and last year, when the
Conference held its session at Cambridge,
the bones were exhumed, and with fitting
ceremony, conducted by Bishop James, de-
posted in their present resting place. Now
it is proposed by the Conference to erect
over them a monument worthy of the man,
and one which will point out his grave to
the children of the Church for generations to
oorne-Trou Times

CORAL JEwELRY.-The special correspon-
dent Of the London Times at the French Ex-
hibition says that coral has risen enormous
ly in estimation as an article of jewelry.-
Pieces that five or six years ago would have
sold at twenty shillings an ounce now fetch
one hundred times that sum. Formerly,
too, the dark red coral was the most esteem
ed, now it has yielded fireplace of honor to
the rose pink variety. Whether this new
taste is mere ephemeral caprice that will
die out remains to be seen; but it is certain
