The prOspects'Of de Harvard crew in En-
gland seem to be hardly so brilliant as their
friends expected, yet we may reasonably dis
trust the Cable reports of their preliminary
achievements. We are assured that they make
better time with an English boat than with
their own, and now it seems they have found
it advisable to reorganize their crew, which
looks at any rate as if they were not satisfied
with themselves. Whether they win the race
however or not, makes little difference. In any
case they will do ms honor

The question whether vile smells are a
Nuisance is likely to be settled by the action
of the Board Of Health, yesterday, in relation
to the fat-rendering establishments. A great
deal of ridiculous discussion has been wasted
in debating whether Offal and soap-fat are
sweet to the nostrils and whether patent de-
Odorizing processes are effectual i'll destroying
an abOmination of which thousands of our
citizens are daily conscious. At last we hope
the horrible ofenses are to be removed. 1t is
not easy to explain why they were not re-

of the mildest kind. In one instance, where

For long time the result of the Tennessee
election has been conceded on both sides. The
fight made by Mr. Stokes has been the hardest
kind of uphill work, and his chances have
diminished more and more certainly as the
time for voting drew near. The few returns
at hand as we write indicate the majority for
Senter at even larger figure than claimed by
bis partisans. In any event it will be over
whelming. The vote appears to have been
very heavy, especially so in the large cities.
In Memphis it was nearly all for Senter; IN
Nashville there was a lively and very close
contest, with little to boast of on either side

The disorganization at Sing Sing Prison has
provoked report from the Grand Jury in West
chester County, which could not be more alb
surd had it been made by a cOrOner's panel
We may say, however, at the start, that the
jury sensibly condemn the bad system
of making appointments of keepers
and superintendents on political principles, so
that the prison is generally managed by more
or less inexperienced and incompetent persons;
and that we agree with them in thinking the
present force of keepers TOO small for the num-
Der of convicts to be guarded-especially while
the keepers are of the prevailing quality
Here, however, our approval of the jurys labors
must stop. They find nobody in particular to
blame for the prevalent anarchy, except the
Prison Association, whose tenderness and sym
pathy for the cODyicts results in those unfortu-
nate creatures being regarded as COLLECTS Of

Kerosene,


Kerosene. a.e1
The error must not prevail, that
kerosene oil of legal standard will
ignite or burn if a lamp containing
it is broken. Good oil such as
should be used in families, will ex-
tinguish flame when brought in con
tact with it. Oil heated to the usu-
APPOINT while burning in a lamp in
the evening, should extinguish
lighted match when thrust into it.
If the reader is using in his family
unadulterated kerosene, he may take
off the cap Of the lamp, thrust in a
lighted taper; hemay turn itout upon
the floor, and apply fame, and it will
not take fire or explode. Standard
kerosene, such as the law recognizes,
is perfectly safe. We wish 70 state
and re-state this fact, as it would be
great misfortune, especially to the
poor, to have the erroneous idea pre-
vail, that all kerosene is danergerous.
A cheap light is too great blessing
to be deprived Of through unjust pre-
JUDGE. It is only the wretched
adulterated oils, the naphtha fluids,
that are dangerous.
We are are almost discouraged in
our efforts to explain the nature Of
the Illuminating fluids, when we find,
as we have during the past month, a
daring, reckless fellow travelling
through the towns about this city.
selling recipes to make cheap
naphtha burning liquid. The dis
couragement does not arise from the
fact that such Adventures are numer-
Gus, and attempt TO deceive the PEG
pie, but that they SO easily succeed
in their evil work. These frauds are
not practised upon the uneducatec
alone, but upon the learned, the in
telligent,-those who certainly ough
not to be ignorant Of the simplest
facts in science. The recipe-peddlel
alluded to, succeed in filching hi
dollar from lawyers, clergymen, {
judge Of police court who, instead
of patronizing him, should have issu-
ed warrant for his arrest land many
others who are reckoned among the
educated classes. We have reason
to think the country is full Of these
men, and our readers must be or
their guard. Not only their own
lives, but those of their neighbors
and friends, are placed in jeopardy by
these frauds.
We repeat, at the request of a
new subscriber,the test for kerosene,
as published in the Journal some
time ago. Take a common quar-
bow fill it one third fall of boiling
water; now add cold water; a little
at time, until thermometer placed
in itindicates a temperature of 40 Q
F. A tablespoonful of the oil to be
tested may be turned into the water,
and stirred about with the thermo-
eter. 1t will float on top, land itmay
be touched with a lighted match or
bit of paper. If it ignites or takes
fire, the oil is dangerous, and the
seller can be prosecuted uuder the
United States law.

them Into our cotton States In suiicIent numbers

lately started for places in the Eastern States,

their friends accounts favorable or otherwise, OF
the locality, people and occupation. Thus, by de-
