LEAD PIPES AND WATER SUPPLY.

TIE question whether water is pol
soucd by flowing through lead pipes
was lately discussed il the French
Academy Of &,iences, with results dat
are calculated to qiict the apprel en-
>ions of those who get their water sup
ply thorgh such pipes. NJ Dumas
stated that in his chemical Hectares he
had long been accustomed t, employ =
very simple experiment for the purpose
Of showing that water coIrodcs lead
only under special conditions. He takes
distilled water, rain water, spring wa
ter, river water. etc, and drops into
each pieces OF lead. Il IS found that
only the distilled water acts on the
lead, the salts Of lime in the rest of the
specimens preventing the reaction. NJ.
Brlgrand read to the Academy a me-
moir giving the results Of his investiga-
tions into this subject. The ancient
Romans employed lead wator pipe. on

At oIc time during the late war ON
troors made sweeping advance
through Arkansas, and. under general
instructions, took possession OF every
prominent official Of church or state
and sent him back under custody until
his status should lie determined.
Among the former was the Right Rev.
Dr. Lay, then Missionary Bishop of the
Protestant Episcopal Church Tor that
Jurisdiction, and well Known for lis
Jealous and efficient labors.
The rector Of the little parish at
Camden complained of frequent at
lacks made upon the discipline and
poIity Of lis church by a Methodist
brother who was r,inisteling to a large
congregation in the same place. The
bishops detention took place during 4
great revival among the Methodists,
aud WAS considered too good thing to
be lost. Accordingly the pastor of the
flock announced it, dmiug "evenimg
meeting thus: You may not know,
brethren. how these 'Episcopals' git re-
ligion, SO I'll tell you. They have a
bishop come round about once year.
and the minister he sets 'em all up in a
row, and the bishop fastens his hands
down on to their heads, and that's the
way they do it; but" (making a long
