But for my love earth, who mourns for me.
"Great spirit, let me see my love again,

\ MULE BATTERY IN Action, The ord
nance Select Committee of England recent
ly made an experiment, in firing noun
tain howitzer strapped on to the back ola
mule. The mule, the loaded gun, the COM
mittee and several "big-wigs" attracted by
the novelty Of the experiment, went to the
trial ground at Woolwich to witness the
firing. Tho mulo was backed up into po-
sition, so that the mu22le of the gun, point
ing over his tail, was aimed AT an carthen
mound. The committee decided to fire it
by means of slow match, and it was pre-
pared aud lighted, Hitherto the mule had
taken rather sleepy interest in the pro-
coediugs; but somehow the iizzing ON his
back caused him first to prick up his ears,
then to lay them back, and finally to begin
to turn round. The committee were thun-
derstruck and skcdaddled in all directions,
the secretary threw himself fiat ON his face;
there was II moment of agoniZing sus-
pense-then bang; the shot ricochettng
away in ne.dircction, while the wretched
mule turned complete sumersault in the

THE NEW MODE OF MAKING
STEEL.

From the New York Tribune
To the Editor Of the Tribune:
! SIR: In your issue this morning, you
call for some account of new process Of
making steel, described in general by one
of your exchanges The process, patented
by James E. Atwood, native of my
State, but now of Ohio, consists IN mixing
chemicals in inexpensive quantities, in
the crucibles, with the iron which is to be
converted into steel He has no theory as
to the manner in which these chemicals
perform their functions. But tue facts IN
variabiv observed are:
First. That iron so treated, no matter
how cheap or impure, produces as good
steel AS the best iron. Broken up old
stoves will answer as well as anything
else, to be east into axcs,cold chisels, &c.,
&c
Second. That iron so treated meits in
little more than half the time required
With iron not so treated, thus reducing he
cost Of netting in fuel and labor, nearly
one half
Thlr,. That iron so treated produces
Il teel having a remarkable degree of
finidlty, rendering possible the casting in
form OF thin and fine pieces Of work such
as pi " points, table bjliS, etc, which,
cannoL be cast Ill IorM by any other pro-
cess.
In addition to his patent for so convert
ing iron into steel, Mr.. Atwood has pa
tented process for casting his steel in green
sand molds, switch effects great economy,
and was never before deemed possible.
Specimens CT his work NAV be seen ct the
banking room Of Stokes, Taylor & Co,
No.21 Nassau street He has been doing
work on a large scale, at Minerva, Ohio,
for a year and half fat foundtry estab,
lished by him for the purpose. The own,
ers, Of whom | am one, have now in oper-
alton two furnaces in the Buildings of the
Jersey City Forge Company, just north of
Payonia avenue, where work is done reg
ularly every day, and Of which public in
spectlon is invited.
What the process may be worth to the
inventor, or his associates, remains to be
seen 1t Will at any rate, be worth hun
dreds of millions Of dollars to the country,
and will revolutionizc modern arts. The
process itself is a perfect certainty, but
tue possibilities Of its application are I'M
developed and incalculabIe

IMPOR IAN / DECISION

The United STATS Supreme Court has
recently decided that the levying OF in.
come tax upon the salaries of iudIc,al
officers of states is unconstitutional,
and therefore void The thirteen orig
inal states at the adoption Of the Con
stitution were ia the exercise of this
authority to exempt their judicial pow
ers from taxation, and as there was no
grant of that power to the general gov
eminent it is held by the court that it
remains TO the states unaltered and un
impaired. 1t is said 'that this being the
original reserved power in the states,
and judicial officer appointed under it
being the means or fundamentally en-
ployed to carry it into effect in the right
and majesty of it's uncopfned exercise,
and the exemption of the officer from
taxation by the general government
stands upon as solid ground and is main
tanned by principles and reasons az 90
gent as those which led to exemption OF
federal officers from taxation by states
for in respect to these reserved powers 4
state is as sovereign and independent a:
the general government" Justice Brad
ley dissented.
The Court also delivered an opinion
sustaining the constitutionality of the
conffiscation act of July, 1862, and that
the authority of Congress to enact the
law was undoubted. Justice Field and
Clifford dissented, holding that the act
was unconstitutional and void.
These are important decisions; and
in regard to the latter there has been
much controversy. The declaring of the
confscating law constitutional by the
highest tribunal in the land will cut of
the hopes of not few rebels respecting

A SIMPLE REMEDY FOR CANcER.-Col.
Ussery, of De Soto, La, says that he fully
tested a remedy for this troublesome dis
ease, recommended to him by Spanish
woman, a native Of the country. The
remedy is this:
Take an egg and break it, pour out the
white retaining the yolk in the shell, put
in salt and mix with the yolk as long as
it will receive it, stir theh together until
q salve is formed, put portion of this on
a piece of sticking plaster, and apply to
the cancer about twice day. He tried
the remedy twice in his own family with
entire success. Such a remedy is within
the reach of every one, and should be
known to the world.

ALASKA; but the government survey III
the forty-ffth parallel has revealed the
existence of live" glaciers IN Mount
Shasta, in California Mount Rainier IN
Washington Territory, and Mount Hood
in Oregon. The existence of them was
formally announced at late meeting Of
the Connecticut Academy IN New Haven,
by Mr.. Clarence King. They have hith-
erto scaped the notice IF those who
haze climbed the peaks, because their
ascent has been made upon the southern
slope. Mr.. King, by his geological re-
seaches in the West, had been led to Sus
pect the existence Of active glaciers, and
as parg of the work of explora ton which
| he is doing for the United States govern
ment, nnder Major General Humphreys,
chief Of the Engineer Corps, he planned
last summer "a glacier searching party
organized his company, made his ascent
at the northern instead of the southern
| slopes, and has been rewarded by the bril-
liant discoveries now recorded. He him
self went up Mount Shasta, with Mr.
Clark, while Mr. Emmons and Mr. Will
son were exploring Mount Rainier,
and Mr.. Hague went up Mount
Hood. These gentlemen are all members
of the government party organized for
tie survey OF the fortieth parallel, and
are now in New Haven working up the
results of their labors in the field.

the snow line of high mountains, and de-
scend by steady scientific motion down
the slopes of the mountains and along the
valleys, into regions below the snow line.
Those in the Alps are the most famous
and the most beautiful known in the
world; they are, some of them, twenty
miles long, two or three wide, and six or
eight hundred feet thick. The novelty of
live" glacier consists in the spectacle
which it presents, of an immense mass of
ice and packed snow obtruding itself dur
l ing the summer, into green and fertile
valleys, with flowers growing up to their
very edges. The constant accumulation
of snow at its head, equalizes the melting
Of the lower end, and thus the mass con-
tinues ever nearly the same, an object of
beauty and interest. We shall look with
Iimpatience for Mr.. Kings detailed de-
scription of this MISUNDERSTANDING.
