THE Scientific American cautions
the public against the use Of adulter-
ated vinegar. The heavy Govern
ment tax or alcohol has raised tbs
price so mitch that resort il had to a
cheaper sutstanceto give the required
acidity to vinegar For this purpose
sulphuric, nitric, and hydrochioric
acids are all used; though sulphuric
acids as the cheapest and sourest thing
that can be found, is chiefly used
This, however, is very destructive to
pickles aud whatever Is placed in 1t
for preservation, and very Injurious to
the health Of those who use the vine-
gar made of II. A gallon of the stuff
called vinegar can be made for q cent
or two from sulphuricaeid and water,
with some coloring matter. To de
tect the presence OF. sulphuric acid,
take o small quantity OF the vinegar
In a clear glass, and drop a few drops
of the Chord of barlum into II,
or the nitrate of barlum or the
nitrate ~ baryta. If the liquid pre-
SCENTS a cloudy appearance, there Is
sulphuric acid in It, and ID should all
be returned to the manufactures oil

Tnr FATE oE THE APOSTLES. All the
Apostles were assaulted by the enemies
OF their Master. They were called to
seal their doctrines with their blood and
nobly did they bear the trial Sch
umacher says
st. Matthew suffered martyrdom by
being slain with n sword at n distant CITY
OF Ethiopia.
ST. Mark expired at Alexandria after b1-
ing cruelty dragged through the street,
Of that city.
St Luke was hanged upon an olive tree
in the classic land Of Greece.
st. John was put into cauliron Of
boiling oil, but escaped death in a mirac-
ulaus manner, and was afterwards ban
ished to patmo,.
st. Peter was crucilicd at Rome with
his head downware.
st. James the Greater was beheaded
AT Jerusalem.
st. James the Less was thrown from u
lofty pinacle of the temple and then bca>
ten to death with inllcr's club.
st Phillip was hanged up against a
pillar at llieropolis in phrygia.
st. Bartholomew wa4 hayed alive.
st. Andrew was bound to cross,
whence he preached to his prosecutor.
until he died
st thomas was run through the body
with lance ut Corommade in the East
Indies
st. Jude was shot to death with ar,
rows.
st. Matthias was first stoned. and then
beheaded
St. Barnabas OF the C;entiles was
stoned TO death by the Jews at Salonica
st. Paul, after various tortures and
prosecutions, was at length bchcalel at
Rome by the Emperor Nero.
Such was the fate Of the apostles ac,
cording 10 traditional statements; AMI
though we cannot authenticate them all.
We at least know that the hatred of tho
world TO these men and their teaching,
was sufficient to render the account not
very improbable
