THE FORSYTH SUSPENSION SCALE.-Some
time since We took occasion to notice the
wonderful perfection at which the manu-
facturers of these scales had arrived, and
expressed our surprise that scale could be
so delicately adjusted as to weigh an iron
safe of a couple of tons, aud then pair of
kid gloves Of less than half an ounce. 1t
appears from the following that we are not
the only admirers of these scales in this
city, and we publish it with pleasure:
OFFICE OF McCLosKEY, BIGLEY l. Co.,
New Orleans, June 10, 1871.
Messrs Forsyth, Ellison Co.:
DEAR SIRs-Having had considerable ex-
perience in the use of various scales for the
weighing of coal, we have found none equal
to the Forsyth Suspension"
The one erected by you at our yard some
months ago has given perfect satisfaction,
being less liable to get out of order, and ac-
cumulating less dirt and rust than any scale
we have heretofore used.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servants,
MCCLOSKEY, BIGLEY s. CO,

A young minister whose reputation for
veracity was not very good, once ventured
to d.: ffer with an old doctor of divinity as to
the efficacyof the use of the rod. "Why,'
said he, ''the only time my father ever
whipped me it was for telling the truth.
''Well,' retorted the doctor, sit cured you
of it, didn't it 2"

In 1929, Charles V. of Spain and Francis
l. of France agreed to settle their little diff
ferences by female Joint High. Francis
sent his mother, Louise of Savoy, and
Charles his aunt, Margaret of Austria, to
Cambray. The ladies occupied adjoining
houses with a communicating door. This
precaution prevented the treaty from being
snapped up by the press and published be-
fore its time 1t was called the Ladies'
Treaty.

DIsINFECTANT-"Oneo OF the Inundated
sends us the following communication:

NEW ORLEANS, June III, 1871
There have been many reports about the
overflow, and about the remedies that have
been contributed for the relief of the suffer
ers; but there is one thing which l am sorry
to say has escaped the lynx eyes of the Re-
PUBLICAN's reporters. If anv one will go
to the corner Of Canal and Claiborne streets
any evening, about four or five o'clock. he
will notice large cask, with hose attached,
mounted on dray, and a man playing a
stream of dark colored liquid upon the
street and in the cutters. Immediately
after the dray has passed, he will think
himself in some tabled land of dreams, so
sudden has been the change in the atmos
phere. Instead of the foul and pestilential
Odor which has pervaded the overtiowed
district for the past week, he breathes as
freely and purely as if he was in some of
our rose-scented gardens up town. He
wonders what can produce such magical
change, and finds out it is the dark-colored
liquid which is being poured SO prOfusely
upon the street. Upon further inquiry. he
discovers that the cask contains about three
or four hundred gallons of carbolic acid,
which is furnished nightly by NIessrs. Page
81 Co.. OF our city. Now, have used the
carbOlic acid myself at my place, and am
of opinion it is the best and cheapest disin-
fectant in use.
