Of plate, such as could not be produced
b1 the ordinary process Of blowing.
Glass pearls, though among the most
beautiful, inexpensive and common orna-
ments worn BY the ladies are produced by
a very singular process. In 1856 Vene-
tain named Joaquin discovered that the scales
Of fish called bleak fish possessed the prop
erty Of communicating a pearly hue to the
water. He found by experimenting, that
beads dipped into this water assumed when
dried the appearance Of pearls 1t proved,
however that the pearly coat when placed
outside was easily rubbed of, and the next
improvement was to make the beads hollow.
The making Of these beads is carried on to
this day in Venice The beads are all
blown separately. BY means Of a small
tube the insides are delicately coated with
the pearly liquid, and a waxed coating is
placed over that. 1t reqnires the scales Of
four thousand fish to produce half pint of
the liquid, to which a small quantity Of sal
ammonia and isinglass are afterwards
added.
Lundy Foot, the celebrated snuff manu-
facturer originally kept small tobacconist
shop at Limerick. One night, his house,
which was uninsured, was burRed to the
ground. As he contemplated the smoking
ruins, on the following morning, in a state
bordering on despair, some Of ihe poor
neighbours, cropping among the embers for
what they could find, stumbled upon several
canisters Of urconsumed half baked snuff,
which they tried, and found it so pleasant to
their noses, that they loaded their waistcoat
pockets with il. Lundy Foot, aroused from
bis stupor, initiated their example, and took
?f'rch Of bis own property, when be was
strack by the superior pungency and favor
i had acquired from the great heat to which
it had been exposed. Acting upon the
hint, be took another house in place called
Black Yard, erected ovens, and set about
the manufacture Of that high-dred com.
modify which soon became widely known as
Black Yard snuff Eventually be took
larger house in Dublin, and making bis
customers pay literally through the nose,
amassed a great fortune by having been
ruined.

SCIENTIFIC & MECHANICAL.

CONTAGIOUS and epidemic diseases are
now believed by scientists to be caused by
living organisms which float in the air IN
the form Of fine dust These organisms
enter the human system through the breath
ing passages and lungs. germinate, and
spread over the body with astonishing rapidi-
ty. Professor Tyndall, of London, recon
mends the use of filters of cotton wool, to
be applied to the nostrils as to cause the air
to pass through the cotton, thus effectually
arresting the infectious dust
TIE Americdn architect giver the fol-
lowing figures in regard to the consumption
of wood in the United States: The annual
expense for railway buildings, repairs, and
cars amounts to S3S, 800, 600; railway
sleepers alone consume $50, 900 acres of tbe
best timber every year; our locomotive en-
gines consume S56,O0O, 900 worth Of the
article and the entire wood industry OF the
country amounts to $500, ,0OO, 900, and en-
ploys 900 vo-tmen.
SIEGE BALLooNs.-According to an Eng

saved il from probable destruction from war
balloons Two balloons, held in tow by
suitable lines, were to be sent up over the
beseiged town to hight of one thousand
feet. Thence they were to drop nitro
glycerine bombs into the powder magazine.
We believe it was 10 he Franco-Austrian
war Of 1859 that some visionary proposed
a similar use Of balloons, only be suggested
the employment Of chloride Of nitrogen
the most dangerous explosive known-and
was laughed at for bis pains.
The English government is making 80,

The Carpenter.

Besides being very much useful, We might
say an indispensable, man in this community,
we look upon the carpenter as a soother and
peacemaker, for after the architect has formed
oftimes wicked designs upon your house, and
puzzled you With the Corinthan, the Ionic,
the Doric, proto- Doric and hunki-Doric be-
wildered you among porticos and columns,
and foliated capitals, and entablatures, and
architraves, and flutes and cornices, and
palisiers, and faeades, and exasperated you
with bis spandrils and traceries, and ciuque
eentos, and corbels, and trefolis, and pen
dentives, and other architechnicalitics you
don't know anything at all about it, the
carpenter steps in and puts your house in a
good frame-makes everything plane, as it
were. with the addition, perhaps, Of his
square, chalk line aud scratchawl, adze, saw
and a few other trifing articles from his
tool chest Without the carpenter to plan
and put together, your house would be in
no frame to receive the joiner and the paper
hanger, and various other representatives Of
the mechanic arts, who are dependent upon
bis movements. So you see the important
position he tiils.
Although nothing but a mechanic, yet
the carpenter is admitted into our very best
houses, and is often consulted regarding their
arrangements. The rich and proud, who
live in :" stuck-up" houses, have to get the
carpenters to stick 'em up. The carpenter
gets up great many stories on such people.
We have known him to get up five stories
and Mansard roof
Carpenters have knack Of accumulating.
There is Carpenters Shaving Bank back
Of nearly every carpenter shop, where they
deposit their shavings. The poor are often
allowed to draw on that bank (if they don t
draw of wagon load, and no interest
charged. Little shavers are not considered
Of much account among carpenters, az this is
profession in which a workman is known
by bis shavings.
The carpenter is charitably disposed to-
ward his fellows. He is not looking for
a mote in bis brothers optic, because there
is usually beam, or at least a scantling in
bis own eye, so if by chance he should dis
cover the mote, ne would SIMPLY remark, (,
" So mote it be"
Several distinguished men began their
career as carpenters. There was the " Car
penter of Rouen." We don't know how be
happened to be in ruin, but think it was
through drink. Then there is Mr.. Carpen-
ter, Of the celebrated and well-known firm
Of Carpenters 4 Joiners. whose Joint trans
actions are carried on all over tie world
and there is Matt Carpenter, Senator from
Wisconsin, who don't frame buildings, bu
who helps to frame laws.
Carpenters are hard-woriDg, industriou
set Of men, and probably do more than an,
other class, unless we except the bricklayers
to build up a city. Don't carp at the car
penter.
