The professor said that he had heard it al

Was rot true he spread the rug upon the

down in the center of the rug. 1t had a
turnover lid, fastened at the back with
three common iroa hinges, and two stou,
iron hasps fitted to two staples driven into
the front of the box A few air-holes
had been bored through the top aud
sides. The box had been put together
with cliuched nais, the ends being bound
with sheet.iron. Three gentlemen from
the audience stepped upon the stage at
the professors request and having given
the box thorough examisatios bound it
round and round il expert fashion. tying

the professor to get good grip on the

JAPANESE TEA.-The larger part of the
japanese tea comes to the United States,
England taking very little of it, as the
preference there is for black teas, ard it
has hecn more profitable to prepare Jap.
ancsc teas green--thc cclor which best
salts American tca-driukers. The produc.
ton of Japan for 1871 vas $4,000, 900
pounds, ,one-half used 10 that country and
the other half exported. The best pro-
duced is in the province Of amashiro.
and in some parts of the province there
are trees 400 aud even 500 years old
which produce tea worth five dollars per
pound. The tea from young shrubs does
not remain good for over a year, while
tea from the old trees Is a. its best at the
end of a year, and remain so for eight
months. An important feature of the
japanese teas is that, as rule, they are
not colorcd with any pigments, while. in
the preparation Of Chinese green teas, a
mixture of gypsum and Prussian blue, or
indigo is used giving glazed slate color.
The color Of the liquor which Japanese
uncolorei tea draws is a pale olive-not
So bright as that drawn from the finest
grades of Chinese teas. In japan they
attach great Importance to the color si

teas. the favor Of the liquor is consider
ed of moro importance than the color,
which is usually red lish. When it is
muddy is is a sure sigh of adulteration
The Japan tea is packed in half-ches'
boxes, the average weight being about

MURDER NEAR BENNINGToN.-On Mon-
day evening, Mrs. Shay respectable
woman living at Walloomsac, N. Y, got
on board the cars at that place to 90 to-
the State Lime. Her appearance gave
the impression that she Was either drunk
or druescd, but she paid her fare to the
conductor, aud in doing so exhibited q
large roll Of bills. At State Line she
arose to get out, and iu doing so fell over
against the stove. She refused to stay in
the car until the other train had come in,
and started back for WaIoomsac, follow
ed closely by Il man named 9. Green.
Nothing was thought of the occurrence
until the next day, Nhen Information was

that the body had the appearance of hav-

Where does the salt on our dinner
tables come from 4? In the first place tive
very strange things were joined together
to make it /: a silvery metal called sOdnum,
and poisnous yelowish gas called chlo-
rne. This queer metal will swim on the
surface of water, in little dancing glob-
uleS. which soon take FIRE aud vanish, in
blue flame but DO sooner is il breathed
upon by the poisonous gas, than both
vanish and leave iu their place the little
crystal of salt, without which life could
not be sustained.
Salt is found in immense quantities in
tie mines of POLAND, Norway and Spain,
where it is quarried like coal, and is quite
pure: but great deal is found mixed
with clay aud sand, and has to be purified
by dissolving it and then evaporathg the
water. In Germany, and in our own
country, are many valuable salt springs,
wkch hold the salt in solution and lakes
around which the salt constantly forms
in solid blocks. These solid crystals must
be ground fnc before they are fit for table
use.
Trees and plants need salt as we'll as
human beings; but there are great salt
plains, where nothing can grow, like the
great rcgi0n in South America, contain
ing more than twenty thousand square
miles; and another in the heart of Per-
sia, covered with glittciing crystals Of
salt, and which have been thought to be
the beds of great oceans, whose waters
have been drained away by volcanoes
