GOdInelte's Lesson.

Godinottc, tho sly young beauty,
Used TO hear her grandam state
That Il was the Christian duty
Never to rCtalAtc.
Though" she'd say "the world should spite
thee,
Be ofmeCluess not bCroit:
II one on tho right check smitc thee,
Straightway turn to him the left
In such wise the piOus lesson
She'd impress on
GodinCttc.
And the beauty promised never to forget.
GOdinctte ran home one morning,
Rosy-chocRd her grandam sought,
Saying ." rccall'l your warning,
And have acted az you taught.
Jauuot Nisz'd me by the gateway,
But nGcr avenged the theft.
As it was the right check straightway
unto him turn'd the left
Twas well done no man could stop her
In this proper
Sort of deed,
And she found her grandam's counsel we
succeed.

CAnnoLlc AcD ron PRESERVING MFA

CARBOLIC ACD FOR PRESERVING MEAT
In late number Of the NOHtc1H
Scienilfgte DR.. Baudct communicates
the result Of some experiments made
with weak solution OF carbolic acid in
preserving meat, For this purpose he
took four widc.mouthcd stoppcrcd bot.
ties, and placed in each half a pound of
raw horse-ilesli, slightly msistened with
solutions of carbOlic acid varying in
strength from five parts to one part in
= thousand. In each bottle he put n
few small pieces of charcoal for the pur.
pose Of absorbing any gaseous matter
evolved from the meat. After keeping
these bottles three months in n room
constantly heated tot temperature Of
about 10 degrees, he found, at the end
of that time, that no decomposition had
occurred, and that the flavor of the meat
was fully prcserved-to such mn extent,
indeed, TINT it was considered excellent
by himself and his friends who partook
OF it. No taste was impaired TO il by
the acid different from that which at.
taches to ordinary smoked meat and
the eXperimCnter was Of the opinion
that this substance may be used with
great advantage for the preserving Of
flesh on large scale for considerable
period of time. He thinks, however,
that this should be kept in well.closcd
vessels, although il is not necessary,
perhaps, that they he Theoretically sealed.

PELouzE PROCESS OF PRESERVING
MEAr.-We have already referred to II
process devised by Pelouze for prCscrv-
ing meat unchanged for I'M indefinite
period of time without the use Of amy
chemical solution, and to his having de-
posted M account of itwitl the secretary
Of the Academy Of Sciences in Paris In
Il late number Of the luoniiew Scicatifque
the secret is announced, from which we
see that it is not essentially different
from processes already in Use. For the
purpose in question the meat is 10 be
cut up into pieces of convenient size,
and subjected to IN atmosphere Of car.
bOnic oxide under pressure. After this
II current OF dry air is passed over the
meat, so ms to carry oil all the moisture,
and this being accomplished, solution
either of salt or saltpetre, ormuch diluted
carbolic acid, is to be brought into contact
with it, and the mass then sealed up in
n tight vessel.

The COrenn Trouble.

Latest reports say that in the second
battle between the Coreans and the
American squadron, the former had six
thousand men armed with gingals, and
their bullets fell short, while the deadly
fire of the American rifles told fearfully
on the enemy.
Under the cover Of the rank vegeta.
ton and behind the shoulder Of hill
the Americans advanced within one hun.
dred and twenty yards of the forts be.
fore they came within range of the Co.
rean musketry. The Coreans resisted
desperately to the last. Lieutenant Me.
Kee was killed MS he entered the en-
trenchments. When the Americans
reached the intrenchments the CoreNns
succumbed
A number of prisoners were taken, in.
GLIDING the officer second in command,
who was badly wounded, the Command
er-iu.C Chief having been killed.
On the 10th of June the American
force bivouNckcd in the forts, and next
day demolished the forts and spiked all
the guns.
The fleet returned to the Boize an
chomge two days later The Coreans
sent on board a letter filed with the
most insulting and abusive language, to
which no reply was made.
Admiral Rodgers, however, sent to the
Corcans to know what he should do with
the prisoners.
The Coreans answered that he might
do with them as he pleased. Two days
later he set them at liberty, and sent two
messages ashore, but the local authority
refused to receive them, saving that it
was MS much MS his head was worth TO
send them, and it was no use to attempt
to communicate further with the court.
Mr.. Low, the American Minister, then
sent formal protest that his mission
was peaceful, and that the American at
tack was not for IL refusal to negotiate,
but because the COreans had treache-
rously fired on the boats.
The steamer Millct was then despatch
ed to Shanghai with dispatches for
Washington. The Monoccacy and the
Palos will return to Shanghai and be
dockcd, ind the rest of the squadron
will return to ChefoO and await instruc.
tons. One hundred thousand rations
were sent to Chefoo,
The Coreans fought like men. The
weapons used by them are wretched old
iire-locks, and their cutlasses made of 50
soft iron that they bent like old hoops.
They were dressed in armor Of nine
thiclinesses, cotton padded, so that only
rifle balls could penetrate them. Swords
produced no effect upon them.
Documents captured show that the
CorcMns had planned the surprise of
the American fleet, and were astonished
at the fixture OF the Corean forts to an
nihilNte the foreign vessels ut the first
fire.
The expedition has accomplished no
change in the relations Of the two coun.
tries, and Minister Low and Admiral
Rodgers will await instructions from
Washington before proceeding to further
hostilities.
Twelve native Christians came along
side the Admirals flagship in junk and
begged to be taken to Shanghai, and
that their junk be burned to prevent its
falling into the hands of the native au.
thoritics, who would thereby discover
from what village they came and punish
their relatives. The request was granted.

KEErEG Flour IN BARRELs-It has
been observed that flour stored in bar.
rels becomes impaired in quality sooner
than when kept in bags. According to
the researches of Dr. Pollock, a German
chemist, this deterioration first becomes
apparent in the shape of apcculiar musty
or mouldy OdOr and sour reaction on the
part of the flour and where these nrc
present the gluten will be fouEd to
have changed from an insouhlc to sol.
unblc form, whereby its capablity for
making good dough islost. The cause
of these changes is ascribcd to the want

The FINEST Town IN SmErN.-The

the frontier town between European and
Asiatic Russia, n position which gives it
many advantages, and in respect of
which it possesses certain trading privi-
leges. 1t is the chief centre of the gov.
ernment mining department, and is in
near proximity to many valuable metal
lurgical undertakings, from which cir
cumstances it derives much importance
aud M increased population. 1rkutsk is
also nice town, but Ekaterienburg has
the superiority in several respects. 1t
contains population Of $4,000 souls,
and is handsomely built, possessing
several fine churches, and a great NUM-
Der of brick and stone houses, among
which some deserve TO he called rather
palaces; also mint and large mechani-
cal works belonging to the government.
II has also theatre, club, and two
really good hotels; and on the whole is

NECESSARY Rules ron SLEEP. There
is no fact more clearly established in the
physiology of man than this, that the
brain cxpcnds its energies and itself
during the hours of wnlSciulncss, and
that these are rccupcrNtcd during sleep.
II the rccuperation does not equal the
expenditure. the braiu withers-this is
insanity. Thus it is that in early Eng
lish history, persons who were con
dcmncd TO death by being prevented
from sleeping, always died raving mnni-
acs, and those who are starved to death
become insane the brain is not nour.
ished, and they cannot sleep. The prac-
teal differences are three LIST Those
who think most, who do the most brain
work, require the most sleep. ID. Tho
time Saved" from necessary sleep is in
fallibly destructive to mind, body, and
estate. ID, Give yourself, your chill

under you, the fullest amount of sleep
they will take, by compelling them to 90
to bed Mt some regular, early hour, and
to rise in the morning the moment they
wake and within fortnight, Nature,
with almost the regularity Of the rising

the moment enough repose has been Sc

ciou that she also poisoned her husband and
son, 1t Is the universal testimony that never
was there more loving wife: She was most
passionately devoted to him and followed him
everywhere We have also seen that. money
was her great weakness. She was nearly al
ways in difficulties of this kind, and would
borrow from any one. This is Of course to be
accounted for In great measure by her inor-
dlnate passion for dress. Wherever she went
she was bound TO move In the most fashiona-
BILE circles, which she invariably adorned by
her beauty and engaging department..
We do not purpose, as we said at the start,
to touch upon the particulars OF this most re-
markable case. Mrs. Wharton now stands be-
fore the bar of justice, charged with murder
and attempted murder, and it seems to be the
general opinion that three or four more items
will be added to the crimson list, two of them
the murder of husband and son. The facts
the public are already familiar with; the theory
that will embrace every case can never 9e
arrived at. The whole story only goes to
show that keen as has been the scrutiny OF
human character these thousands of years it
still has unsounded depths and undiscovered
latitudes. And this Monumental City tragedy,
whose central figure is an elegant lady OF the
first circles of society, only adds another
stigma to the lengthy list that our poets,
philosophers and scientists are called upon TO
solve.
Our sole purpose is to lay before the public
some facts that are not known, facts culied
by laborious search in private avenues OF. In

"TcHIydLRYv OF OUR DAY.
Something for the Sir knights Of our
Tournaments to Read.

They had tournament at the Fair Grounds
near Richmond on the 4th of July. The charge
to the '.Knightsn was delivered by DR.. G. W.
Bagby, (Mozis Addums,) and was.perhaps the
most original address ever made On such an
occasion. The Doctor was bold enough to
laugh at the thing as it deserves to be laughed
at, thereby earning the public gratitude The
charge was happily conceived and expressed,
and In its conclusion aptly trayestied the mock
heroics common on such occasions. Here are
some extracts from it: s.-,s
