COFFEE CRUSHED vs. GRoUND.-The fol-
lowing is from the Annual of Scientific Dis
covery:
1t is not generally known that coffee that
has been beaten is better than that which has
been ground Such, however is the fact, and
in this brief article oa the subject, Savariu
gives what he considers The reason for the diff
ference As be remarks, a mere decoction Of
green coffee is a most insipid drink, but car
bonization develops the aroma, andan oil which
is the pcculiarty OF tic coffee we drink He
agrees with Other writer's that the Turks excel
in this. They employ nc mills bat beat the
berry with wooden pestlcs in mortars. When
long used, these pestles become precious and
hring great prices He determined By actual
experiment, which Of the two methods was the
best. lie burned carefully pound of good
Mocha, and separated it into two equal por-
tons. The one was passed through the mill
the other was beaten alter the Turkish fashion
IN mortar He made coffee CT each. Tax
ing equal weights of each, and pouring on an
equal weight of boiling water, he treated them
both precisely alike lie tasted the coffee
himself, and caused other competent judges to
do 50. The unanimous opinion was, that coffee
beaten in morter, was far better than that

OYSTER SPArTINu-For the information of

OYSTER SpATTING.--Fo the information of
with these delicious bivalves, but WHO know
ycrs little Of their habits, we explain that the
term ''spatting" is used in reference to the
pmpagation of she'll fish, instead of The word

aquarium, and here is what happened:
About fortnight ago, on the keeper going
to he aquarium about a. III. to aerate the

Of the oysters in the act Of closing (which they
the aquarium is touched, sent out a cloud of
white, which rose steadily but quickly to the
surface, and Immediately began to sink again
rs rapidly as it had risen, and disappeared
amongst the stones in the bottom OF the aqua
rum The process was three times repeated.
Since this oyster has spawned it has grown
thin transparent addition to the shell, nearly
hall an inch wide, which none Of the others
have done vet In commenting upon this III
teresting note from Sir VIM. Wallace, Frank
Buckland, the learned naturalist. remarks:-
''The young oysters do not often come to the
surface to swim about, though under certain
conditions Of the water they are all at the top
and none at the bottom When in the parent
shell they float about 10 thickish apparently
mucilaginous) fluid agree with Sir William
that the oyster does not send all her young

forth into the world at the same moment
Those which lie between the lamuse of the
beard are the last TO be born those nearest the
opening of the shell make their debit before
their brothers. During the summer months
the oysters are all hard at work enlarging their
houses for the winter. This they do by adding
an extra story to the edges of both shells When
first secreted the growth is as fine as the ice
spicusc one sees on the window on frosty
moruiogs. The scaffold once made, the she'll
material is added pretty thickly. If the fact
Observed by Sir Wallace, thai only the oyster
that spawned grew its SHE'LL while others
remained idle, be universal in its application,
it is not only interesting, but important in
practice
Oyster eaters, it will be seen, need be under
no apprehension as to the exhaustion OF this
luxury, if the spawn of each female average
100000. They require, however, five or SIX
years to attain maturity, and have many en-
