CHLoRoFoRM AND RoBBERs.-Dr Ste
Pnen rogers, OF New York. in report on
Can aCnloroform be used to Facilitate
ROBBERY ?. records some facts which
prove 1t to be Of no use to robbers. 1st,
As to It's use to promote the greater Sc
curlty from the disturbance of the sleeper,
even were that practicable, the very time
that would be consumed in the gradual
and cautious administration ofthe vapor-
the only possible theoretical manner of
accomplishing it-Would so increase the
danger of detection that few thieves
would think of employing it, I'd. Dur
ing the course Of the administration Of
chlorOtorm, whatever manner NAV be
adopted, the patient or subject, as rule,
becomes excited, often very violent and
turbulent, with an irrepressible propensity
to sing or shout, which is often so loud as
to alarm the inmates Of Tho whole house.
He is IN state of wild chloroformic in
oxcation. The exceptions to this rule
are so few that no prudent thief would
think running the risk of not meeting
one OF those exceptions. Sd. Surprising
the two preceding obstacles overcome,
and the victim thoroughly quoted into
narcotic sleep, a third and very frequent
complication arises: he begins to vomit,
and while he does not generally make
much noise about it, still he may, and he
always requires attention lest fatal stran
gulation occur. The knowledge, among
the criminal classes, that the abandonment
of their victim, with towel still over
his face, to the liabilities of vomiting and
>trangulation, would often add the crime
of murder to that of robbery, would have
great effect in lettering them from the
further employment of it-MedicaZ Record.

The CHIMES OF TR1NITY.-The New
York Mail gives an interesting article on
that great attraction of visitors to New
York, Trinity Church, from which we
extract:
The spire to which the sight-seekers
pant is 284 feet high, or rather those are
the figures that express the distance from
the street level to the top of the golden
cross. The whole number of steps to he
| overcome is 608, The chime "at Trinity
consists of nine BELLS each of which
weighs several hundred pounds, and the
| largest of them even running up into the
| thousands. The musical range is an oc.
| tave and quarter, and of course no air
whose notes cannot by the musicians in.
genuity, be brought within the range of
| these nine notes can be properly perform
| ed. The usual semitones of the regular
octave are preserved, but as the compass
| of the bells IS 30 narrow, only the simpler
melodies, and those which have but LITTLE
variation between the highest and the
lowest notes can be- played. No two
bells are ever struck together, and such
thing as "chord " is unknown in Ginning.
The notes follow one after another some.
what like child playing tune on the
piano with one finger. Five of these
bells, the large one and the four smaller
ones were brought from England in 1846;
at later date, bells necessary to com.
plete the octave were procured of the
Meneeley's az West Troy. The huge bells,
though set on swinging frames, are lashed
30 as to be firm and fast, and but tie iron
tongues are movable, these being swung
from the centre on one side by means Of
a cord to each. The tongue always strikes
precisely in the same spot ON the lin of
the bell, thus securing uniformity Of vi
bration and certainty of tone. Each
tongue or hammer is provided with a
damper, on the plan of damper to the
strings of piano, and for the same .pur
pose-to prevent the undesirable pro.
longation OF the sound, and the conse-
quent running of the notes into each other.
The cord passes from the hammer of the
bell down one story to the ringers room;
it is there attached to long wooden bar,
the leverage af which is SO adjusted as to
make the striking of the tongue as easy
as possible. But even then che playing
of a tune on Trinity bells is no child's play.
Imagine nine large levers, each one, at
the end where the hand touches it, as big
as drayman's handspike. The player
takes off his coat, stands up to his work
and begins. Every note struck requires
sudden pull, or downward thrust of the
lever, with power which, if put into a
blow, would be sufficient to knock down
the strongest man. No wonder that at
the end of the time the performer is in q
profuse perspiration.

Whether solution of these wild revels

which Mardi Gras Will permit to be taken

They have ways that are peculiar down
in New Jersey. There Is State law
there which prohibits the adjournment OF
the Legislature for more than two days at
time; but fit being thought desirable
by the Solons to evade the restrictive
statute they resort to clever little tri TX,
which is as easy as it is ingenious. They
detail one member Of each house whose
duty it is to appear at the Senate and
Assembly chamber each morning during
the intermittant period, and, addressing
the empty benches call the house to or
der; which ceremony being over he pro-
ceeds to declare that there being no quo
rum present the institution is adjourned.
These people have queer way of doing
things. D .ne. r

draft of the Presidents Annual Message
was, though not quite finished, read to
the Cabinet to-day, all the members be-
ng present. 1t will perhaps be one-tifth
longer than last years message. In re-
sponse to a question asked by the writer
of this dispatch. the Pr sident remarked
he had no objection to saying that the
uessage would not show q change OF
policy on his part, as his endeavor was
now as it had been in the past, to per-
form his entire duty to the extent of his
ability in such manner as would best
serve the interests of the country. He
was not certain that he would recon-
mend to Congress extension OF amnesty
to the two or three hundred persons ex-
cluded by recent legislation but if he
did, it would be with the proposed con-
dition that benefciaries would take an
oath to support the constitution. Con-
gress, however. had ample au hority in
the premises, and could act in the maj
ter without repetition of his views upon
the subject contained in his former an
nual message. He saw no more neces-
sity, as had been asserted, for a formal
declaration of more'friendly policy to-
wards the South than for such deelara-
tion towards the North, for he sought as
President, under the obligation Of his
oath, to execute the duties Of his posi-
tion without favor or partiality in ac-
eordaaee with law. Probable changes
in the Cabinet still continue to be the
chief subject discussed in political cir
cles. 1t is understood that Secretary
Fisk will retire from public life aitogeth-
