This establishes the fact that the shortest
route for the West in their foreign commerce,
to say the least, Is via Cincinnati to Baltimore
or philadelphia; certainly not New York.
The proximity Of Washington to Baltimore
renders the opening Of this line with the great
West and with Europe, of much interest as
well as advantage to our business men, and
without doubt they will see 1t and profit by It.

The WonderfuI spectroseope

Oae of the most notable things about
the development of modern science is
the manner in which discoveries or in
ventions in one branch of inquiry are OF
immediate and signal service in elucids-
ting other and apparently unconnected
matters. or such inventions the spec
troscope is Que likely to be of iucalcula-
bic advantage, as by means of its refraet-
ing prisms it ia enabled to separate and
exhibit the spectra or rays of light which
different substances reflect, each in its
own characteristic system Of bands and
lines of color. By this means several
new metals have been discovered, the
stmospheres OF the sun and other
heavenly bodies analysed, and diseovs-
ries are opening up to its powers on
every hand. 1t has been put to prac-
tiea1 use in analyZing the fame of q
furnace during the process of making
Bessemer steel, so that the exact mo
ment when the process is complete Is in
stantly shown by the change in the spec
trum-a most delicate point Of metal
lurgy not otherwise determinable. The
latest use to which it has been put will
give it q fame in the annals of medicine
and of Law, as it furnishes 3 means of
anslyzing and recognizing human blood,
whether in abnormal secretions Of dis
ease or in dried stains upon other mate
rial. The hsemstine or cOlOring matter
Of the blood shows spectrum entirely
different from other substances with all
its general appearance and color so
that where even the microscope fails, the
spectroseope will instantly detect so
small a matter as the oue-thousandth
of grain of dried human blood. Thus
sll sciences gain from each ones pro-
