that something was wrongi Sho
urged tho salad on her guests re-
peatcdly, but without avail. At
last she tasted it herself; the rancid
tastc was horrible. Calling TO the
servant, she demanded, what was
tho matter with the salad. Il don't

The castor oil, ma'am. Didn't you

MODE OF PREPARATION -Buchu, in vacuo,
Juniper Berries, by disti!lation, to form
fine gin. Cubebs extracted by dispiace-
ment with spirits obtained from Juniper
Berries; very little sugar is used and a
small proportion of spirit. 1t is more

fragrance the action of fame destroys
this its active principle), leaving dark
and glutinous decoction. Mine is the
color of ingredients. The Buchu in my
preparation predominates; the smallest
quantity of the other ingredients are
added, to prevent fermentation; upon
inspection it will be found not to be ] inc
ture, as made in Pharmacop9a nor is it
Syrup-and therefore can be used in cases
where fever or Inflammation exist. In this,
you have the knowledge of the Ingredients
and the mode of preparation.
Hoping that you will favor it with trial,
and that upon inspection it will meet with
your appreciation.
With feeling of profound confidence.

Engineering Difficulties.

Natural phenomens, says the London
Mature, must be regarded by the en-
gineer in the tropics. Here the boring
worm will teach him salutary caution.
In the East we have seen a railway
train stopped on an incline by locusts.
The locusts have a fancy for sitting on
the rails, and when the engine-wheel
touches them they are crushed leaving
the rail so oily that the wheel slips.
On one line, in the locus: s""so.', s..nd
boxes are used with the connective.
Oysters are, however, a newly recorded
enemy to the engineer. Some gour-
mand suggested the harbour Of Tut
CORN as a suitable place for oyster beds,
and the Madre Government, doubtless
appreciative of the value Of oysters
either for eating or for pearls, turned a
deaf ear to remonstrance. Time has,
however, justified the remonstrants, for
though the projectors have got an abun'
dant supply of oysters, the harbor Of
Tuticorin is now said to be in danger Of
total destruction by the growth of the
oyster beds, and the attention Of the
Government is seriously directed to cross
the love of oysters. The Madras coast
is so i'll provided that harbors are more
valuable than oysters, and q campaign
is directed against the latter, although
the revenue authorities banker after the
taxes on the pearl fishery.

The Talking Machiae.

All London, at least all sightseeing
London, has been astonished and de-
lighted by a talking machine, which
distinctly articulates in English, French
and German, and also Kisses and laughs
quite perfectly. The machine is mani
pulated by a lady, but We do not un-
derstand that it may not also be work
ed by a man, should no lady be found
for the service. The New York Tri-
b,nc suggests that the machine man
NAV be brought to this country, regu-
lariy naturalized, and then elected to
Congress. At any rate, he might be
purchased by the government, set up
in the House of Representatives, and
made, under the fingers OF the clerk OF
the sergeant at arms, to pronounce
the speeches which honorable members
send to the Globe, and which now, fol
want of wind, they do not pronounce a
all.-Bah San.

lIanSarSl Roofs.

The Tecknologist truly and sensibly
saws: In this country, perhaps in all
countries, fashion is almost omnipotent,
and lust now there is rage for Man
sard roofs, No doubt Mansards have
many advantages, in an architectural
and economical point Of view, especially
when they are appropriate to the style
of the building, but they are usually
constructed Of wood, and frequently put
On to five or six story stone or brick
buildings, where they are virtually out
of the reach of water, and where they
serve as most efficient conveyances of
fire to what would be otherwise almost
fire-proof structures. Such roofs ought
to be made of fiire-proof materials,
which could be done without adding
very largely to the cost. Certainly the
added cost would be insignificant COM
pared with the saving effected 10y it.
The general adoption of very simple
precautionary means would save an TO-
calculable amount of property, and yet
it is so simple that we fear 1t will oe
done. II in every house a small garden
force pump, small enough TO work a
pail of water were kept, great majority
of fires could be extinguished in their
beginning, before becoming dangerous.
OF course, if every house were provided
with these little affairs, and a pail al
WAYS ready, the neighbors, in case Of
need, would run in, and a few pals Of
water at first sent to the right spot
would effectually subdue the fire. There
used to be contrivance called the ny,
dropult well adapted for such use, and
we presume there are many Others
eoually GOOD.

An Electien At the south.

I'VE allnded, a few days ago, to the
splendid Radical victory in South Caro-
alma, whereby Scott was reelected Gov.
ernor, and two or three negroes sent to
Congress. How this victory was gained
may be ascertained from the following
extract from aletter written at Column
biz, 10 that State Bf8
The result is the actual subversion
and destruction of the franchise in
South Carolina. On the seaboard and
islands the negroes, in savage crowds,
held the ballot-boxes and crowded them
with all the Radical tickets sent to them.
The negro women were even more VIC
lent than the men, and, with arms in
hand, these brutal mobs attacked,
beat and drove off every man,
white or black, who showed or
tried to vote the Reform ticket.
In the middle counties the negro
militia did the same service, and al
though negro boys from fifteen to tweu=
ty years Of age were seen to vote, no
white man ventured to challenge them.
Not only minors, but felons, well known
conyicts forburglary, grand larceny, &c,
voted, and repeated often enough to
count from five to ten votes each. The
conservative negroes only exhibited
their sentiments passively, by staying
away from the polls. In the upper
counties, where the white population is
in the ascendency, the people were over
awed by Grants troops in addition to
SCOTS negro militia. The law Of vio-
lence and intimidation controlled every
where savage negro mobs of the sea-
b ard, negro militia in the middle coun-
try, and negro militia and United States
troops in the upcountry. 1t is ridlcu-
lous to call this an election.-Geveldnd
