LIGHTING STREETS By ELRerR1CITr.-AM Mr.
Wheeler proposes plan or lighting the
streets Of New York by electricity. His
method is similar to that in operation in the
dome Of the Capitol and the halls of Con-
gress at Washington He Gains that the
whole expense Of laying wires, erecting the
batteries, and lighting the city, will be saved
and paid for in few years, at the present
cost Of simply lighting the lamps. He esti-
mates that, in twenty years, the saving to
the city viii be 81, 100000. By the pro-
posed arrangement, il any lamp should be
extinguished accidentally, it will immed,
ately relIght itself. In addition to the pyo-
posed electrical lighting, the wires (he saysl
can be used Tor telegsaphic purposes and 4
complete system Of Geographic commsAica-
ton with every part Of the city can be ar
ranged. The subject has been referred TO a
committee Of aldermen.
GOLDEN hair-fuids have recently been the
subject Of continued investigation by an
English chemist, who, after a careful andy
sis, asserts that they are composed Of diluted
nitric and muriatic acids. with traces, in
some instances, Of sulphuric acid. Though
the proprietors Of these fluids announce
that the preparations are harmless, vet IN
stances have been reported of ladies' being
lnjared By drops of the hair-dys falling on
their shoulders. The agent to eject the
change in the color Of the hair Is the nitric
acid, aided by the chlorine evolved bv the
OF the mqriatic acid.
