When a discoverer of any scientific sub- iect, asks the cooperation of the learned in science, to test the merit and truth of his discovery by severe tests and practi- cal results, and then to endorse and rec ommend if, it is fair to presume it is val uable for the purpose intended. Such has been the course pursued by Messrs. Hall < Co. prOprietors of Halls Vegeta- ble Sicilian Hair Remover. And all those who have tested it (among whom we may mention Dr. A. \. Hayes and s.

POPULAR SCIENCE.

CANDLES FROM VEGETABLE WAX.-China
annually exports large quantities Of veget-
able wax to England for manufacture into
candles. 1t is obtained from three differ
ent species of trees or shrubs, being an ex-
udation caused by the puncture Of an in
sect. In time, this exudation becomes dry
and powdery, resembling hoar-frost, in
which state it is scraped of, and the crude
material freed from impurities by spread
ing it on strainer cover . cylindrical ves-
sci of boiling water. The wax is received
in the former vessel, and, on congealing, is
ready for use. Thousands of. tons are
yielded in the courseof year but wheth-
er the waxy matter is the product Of the
animal, or exuded by the plant in conse-
quence of peing punctured, is not yet sat
isfactorily determined.
The WEIGHT OF AIR.-Little "a we re-
alize the weight Of gaseous bodies, it il
meteorologically certain that one cubic mile
Of atmospheric air weighs over five mil
lions six hundred Thousands tons, and one
cubic mile of pure hydrogen, the lightest
known substance, weighs no less than three
hundred and eighty nine thousand tons.
IL will, therefore, appear somewhat start
ling to those who laugh at the terrors of
our forefathers, comets, to learn that such
6 gaseous body has an enormous weight,
and its mass is not less than that Of an as-
teroid. IL would have, if reduced to the
density Of the earth, a diameter some
where between thirty-two and two hundred
and thirty-seven miles and If reduced To
the density Of sphereof lead, would have
diameter which may approximately be
put at least as high a. fifty miles,

capital In the two countries. But the
bankers and usurers with their friends and
allies in and out of Congress would no
doubt attempt to account for it and to de-
ceive and mislesd the people by the fabri-
cation Of some new and fAllacious theory,
hut they would find that their efforts
would prove q miserable abortion. For
those who produce and distribute the
wealth have been, and are, investigating
the questions Of finance and currency for
themselves, and are very generally arriv-
ing ut the conclusion that the extortiouate-
ly high and fuctuating rates Of interest
are the the main cause Of the periodical
prostration and arrangement Of our iu-
dustrial and commercial interests, and that
the delegation Of the sovereign power to
issue and control the circulating medium
and regulate the rate of interest to a IA
vore1 system of banking corporations, is
not only fraud upon their rights but an
insult to their intelligence.
