It'll. PprH AND MIXIco.--A coIrcspon-
dent of the. ladepenRonce ErlGe writes as
follows As has been currently reported,
1T is true. that JuareZ has written an auto
graph letter to the Pope. In it he deplores
the mis- understandings which, have occurred
between the Holy See and his government,
and declares that the line of conduct pur-
sued by him toward the church and its min
listers was imposed upon him by the pres
sure of circumstances; that to-day the stu
ton is entirely changed and enables him to
restore to the Church its liberty and privil-
eyes; he duplicates the Holy Father to
send him bishops, whom he promises to re-
ceive with the greatest consideration and
the liveliest satisfaction. He concludes his
letter by invoking His Holiness's blessing
on Mexico and on himself. -

SCIENTIFIC AND MECHANICAL.

LIE MAGNETIC FIsH.-A new pa: lOr toy
is the magnetic fish cut from strips of paper
and colOred in imitation of nature. If the
palm of the hand be moistened and the fish
placed thereon, it writhes in various ways,
though invariably following the pulsation
of the wrist.
ONIONS A SrEcIE,c AGAINST EIlDEMIcs.-
A correspondent of the Scientific american
commends onions as Il specific against cpl
demlcS-nOt as an esculent, but sliced and
kept in sick room, where they will absorb
any atmospheric poison. They should be
replaced by fresh ones every hour. 1t is
noticed that ill the room of Il small pox pa
ticnt they will blister and decompose with
great rapidity. but will prevent the spread
of the disease. Their application has also
proved effective in the case OF snake bites
SUN-STRoKE.-A correspondent says 1t
is well for the public to know that the fol-
lowing treatment of this terrible affection
is the best and most successful that can be
adopted: Let the person thus affected be
removed to cool and private place. his
clothing taken off. and the body rubbed
from head to foot with large pieces of ice.
at the same time that pieces OF ice are kept
in the rm-pits. This simple treatment, if
which seem almost desperate; and which,
there is reason to believe, underiany other
treatment would certainly prove fatal.
CHEAP Ice PITCHER.-Thef following sim
pie method of keeping ice water for long
time IN n common pitcher, is worth know
ing: Place between two sheets of paper
newspaper will answer, but thick brown
paper is better,) layer of cotton batting
about half an inch in thickness, fasten the
ends of the paper and batting together,
forming a circle, then sew or paste a crown
over one end, making box the shape of Il
stove-pipe hat, minus the rim. Place this
over an ordinary pitcher filed with ice
water, making it deepenough to rest ON the
table SO as to exclude TIE air, and the reader
will be astonished at the length of time his
ice will keep, and the water remain cold
after the ice is melted.
THE STEAM BIHD.-Under this title, Mr..
J. X. Smithies, of Paddington, barrlster-at-
law, proposes tc introduce 90 flying steam
engine" fitted with wings, Tapped by the
action of steam effe~reduces the ratio of
the weight of the engine to it's power by
using tubular boiler, with very small and
thin tubes He will use liquid fuel, and
carry very little water. condensing the steam
by a very light condenser, made like the
tail OF a bird, to sustain the bird and steady
its flight. The arms ct the wings are CON
nected with the piston rod of the engine, so
that the apparatus is raised by the strokes
of the wings alone. without light gas

give it buoyancy. To this engine he at

IINoRANCE OF PROTESTANT DIvISITY
SrUDENTs.-In the General Assembly of the
Church of Scotland, last week, there was
an interesting debate upon proposition for
establishing more satisfactory. mode of
examining students by the Presbyteries of
the Church. The contemplated improve
ment was warmly advocated by Mr.. Doug
las Maclagan, who gave from his own eX-
perience an amusing example of its neces-
sity. He said in the medical faculty with
which he was connected, they required the
students to pass preliminary examination
in literature and mathematics. At late
examination there We're fifty Ave candidates.
and in English twenty five passed and
twenty-eight were rejected. If the Assem-
bly, were to hear all the details of the cx-
animation they would he astonished. One
of the auestions-not very profound one
was as to the meaning of the word ..hy-
pothesis.' One of the candidates said that
it meant "a machine for raising water =
Uaughter.) Another candidate said that IT
meant Z" something that happened to a man
after his death" Haughtcr.) One OF the
historical questions put was as follows -
" Give some account of Calico and Coprr-
uicus,'' to which one of the students replied
that "Galileo was a man who had COM
mittcd five MURDERS, Daughter y another
that "Galileo and Copcrnicus were two
gentlemen who had fallen in some, battle :"
Qaughtcr,) and Il third said that Copernicus
was Il compound of two metals" Lauch-

BY the action of the reconstruc-
ton laws. no less than ten Northern
States are represented by three Sen
ators each, while the Southern States
have mono whatever. Louisiana has
divided her favors between Illinois
and New York. It is probably war
ranted by the excess of population
and by the, moral supremacy of their
people over Southern trash, but it is
hardly in conformity with the Con-
stitution of the United States, which
says there shall only be two Senators
to each State. We know it is very
wrong to persist in preference for
our own people. but we do it, never
theless, and, in case of the successful
election of Seymour and Blair, which
we anticipate, New, York and: Illinois
will, most likely, each lose a aSenator.

MORTALITY IN THE CRY OF New
YoRK.-During the week ending Au-
gust 1st, there were 730 deaths in
New York, and 223 in Brooklyn, a
marked decrease over the mortality
of last week. This decrease is attri-
bnted to the recent disinfecting and
other sanitary arrangements. The
total mortality in New York in the
four weeks ending August 1st, was
3,267, and of these deaths l, ,5OS were
infants under one year; 1,572 were
charged to zymotic diseases, and 1875
to insolation, or the immediate
effects of excessive heat. The total
number of deaths in the eight weeks
that preceded, and which included
two very hot weeks, was only 3,223,
or less than half the death-rate of
this last four weeks period.
