The Boston JOH,Hdi Of chemistry gives
the following method of cleansing hlan-

of cold water. When dissolved. put in
Il pair OF hlankcts.and let them remain
over night. Next day rub and drain
them out. and rinse thoroughly in two

them. But this is not the only domestic
use I" which horaX may be put. Says
the same journal: B"raX is the best
c"ckroach cXtcrminator yet discovered.
This troublesome insect has Il peculiar
aversion to ii. and will never return
where it has once been scattered. As
the salt i perfectly harmless to human
beings it is much to he preferred for this
purpose to the poisonous substances
commonly Used. BoraX i also valuable
for laundry use. To about ten gallons
of boiling water add handful of horaX.
and You need u>e only the ordinary al

etc. Use an extra quality of this powder.
1t will not iniurc the texture of the

FROM HALIFAX.

Halifax, %. A letter from Pleasant Bay,
Inverness county, C. b., furnishes the follow
ing, which may throw some light on the mys-
FERROUS cause of the loss of the steamer Pic
tou on the 18th of Now:
The great light seen northwest of Pleasant
Bay was probably near the east point Of
Prince Edwards Island. Three or four days
later the straits were visited by heavy gale
and consequently high sea. quantity Of
flour, dough and burned stores in abundance
were distinctly seen in the bay, but owing to
rough weather nothing could be saved. A
part of the cabin having the officers room
on it in large letters, was picked up. The
