Useful Information.

Roasted coffee is one of the most
powerful means, not only of rendering
animal vegetable efluvia innocuous,
but Of actually destroying them. A
room in which meat in an advanced
degree of decomposition has been kept
tor some time, was instantly deprived
of all smell by an open coffee rooster
being carried through it containing
pound of coffee newly roasted. In an
other room the efluvia accustomed by
the cleaning out of cesspool, so that
sulPhureted hydrogen and ammonia
could be clearly detected, was COM
pletely removed within half a minute
on the employment of three ounces of
fresh coffee. The best mode of using
it as disinfectant is to dry the raw
bean, pound it in q mortar, and then
roast the powder on moderately heat
ed iron plate until it assumes a dark
brown hue, when it is ready for use It
must, however, be remembered that
the coffee, to be effectual, should be
perfectly pure. Adu1terated rubbish
will only make matters worse. -Ho-

IN. Sella, Minister of Finance, has
delivered to M. Viscounti Venosta, of

memorial in relation to the financial
aspect of railway, and of which
copies have been addressed to Berne
and Berlin. He claims for M. Grattoni,

sage, q part of the st. Gothard work
conceded to NJ. Favre, of Geneva,
nephew of Jules Favre. There is, how
ever, no truth in the statement that the
italian Government has threatened to
withdraw its signature from the treaty
concerning the construction of the line
in question. The Cabinet of Rome
has received from Berne a reply show
ing the situation of NJ. Favre with re-
spect to the st. Gothard company, and
offering in the name of the latter, to
NJ. Grattoni participation in the con.

l5lela's Comet Broken 70 Pieces.

Prof. H. A. Newton, of Yale, writes
as follows to the New Haven papers
SUNDAY evening, between 1880 and
1880 O'Clock, were counted about 90
shooting stars. of which over three.
fourths radiated from Gamma andre
medic. These meteoric bodies evil
IDENTIFY form part of what was for
merly called Biela' 3 comet. In 1916 that
body was seen to divide into two COM
cts, which, at their next return in 1852,
were l, $50, 600 miles apart. Since that
time neither portion of the comet has
been seen, though their third passage
Of the node should have taken place
about six weeks ago. Astronomers
have beer suspecting that it has gone
entirely to pieces, ard that it would
not again be seen. Sunday evening
were seen, as above stated, about 259
fragments of the comet. A large num-
Der of observers would probably have
been able to count 700 or 800 in the
time named. The process of breaking
up has evidently been going ON long
time. Mr.. Herrick saw, in 1888, De-
cember 9Th, quite a number Of frag-
ments, though he did not then know
that they had any connection with this
or any comet"

Perils Encountered In Searching for the
Quinino Plant.

The cascarilleros or bark hunters are
very avaricious and very brave, going
out alone, setting up a hut in a proba-
ole. looking spot, and diverging from
their headquarters in every direction.
II by any accident they get lost or their
provisions are destroyed, they die of
hunger. DR.. Weddel1 on one occasion
in Bolivier landed on the beach of q
river we'll shaded with trees. Here he
found the cabin of cascarillero. and
near it a man stretched out upon the
ground in the agonies of death. He
was nearly naked, and covered with
myriads of insects, whose stings had
haster ed his end. On the leaves which
formed the roof Of the hut were the
remains of the unfortunate mans
clothes, a straw hat, and some rags.

the remains of his last me..l. a little
maze and two or three chunus. Such
is the end to which their hazardous &C.
cupation exposes the bark collectors
