THE UNITED STATES MINT.

the New Orleans Bulletin:
THE UNITED STATES MINT.
The appointment of superintendent of
the United States mint in this city is an
evidence that operations will be resumed
at an early day IN that establishment. This
tardy act of justice on the part of the fed
eral government will certainly promote the
commercial interests of New Orleans.
As no one but member of the party in
power could be expected to receive the
nomination. we are free to acknowledge
that no better selection could have been
made by President Grant. DR.. Bonzano is
that rara arts in the Radical tlock-an hon
est man. He is, besides, an amiable and
cultivated gentleman, and his high scien-
tific attainments and thorough practical
knowledge Of the arts of assaying, melting
and coming. point him out as emphat ically
1.-THE right man in the right place"
It is very easy task to vindicate the
propriety Of such appointments where the
incumbent furnishes an unexceptionable
personal, political and professional
record. DR.. Bonzano is Republican in
principle and practice. That he is sin
cere in his sentiments is proved by their
consistent maintenance, under trials
which vindicate his integrity, and
a life which is tainted with nothing
either venal or vindictive. For the
safety of the large values to be entrusted
to him, society has the guarantees of past
experience. For the ability to make the
New Orleans Mint an establishment
worthy of the patronage of foreign coun-
tries, his scientific skill gives assurance.
Such nominations strengthen the Re-
publican party more than any amount of
patronage which requires either to be
explained or defended. We hope our
nominating conventions will remember
the Importance of selecting men who COM
mand the respect even of their opponents.
1t is not time to pack upon the Re-
publican people or press candidates
whose personal or political record requires
to be defended. In abatement of political
rancor, and issues of party principle, it
is somewhat difficult to bring an unbroken
vote to the support Of bad man or to
oppose bad man. 81. h. 49, -.
Let our nominating conventions follow
the copy set in this and similar cases by
President Grant, and give us few more
of the same sort with the Superintendent
of the United States Mint at New Orleans.
1t is an easy task to defend them.

The st. Louis Republican has the follow
ing neat comments on our legal lights:
1.-The lawyers before the Louisiana Supreme
Court are subject to fifteen minute rule
in their arguments. But this doesn't
preven< occasional bursts of eloquence.
One of them, for instance, said recently
that the Judge had plunged his talons into
the very bowels of the statute under discus
sion, and torn it into bloody fragments,
prey. The same metaphorical gentleman
further affirmed that all the law learning
displayd by his adversary was as foreign
to the points at issue as mad bull in
a china store.''

The experiments made by Professor Binz,
Of Bonn, with reference to the effect OF
alcohol on animals, are regarded as of
much importance, inasmuch as he seems to
have discovered the reasons why alcoholic
stimulants are so useful in snake poison
ing. He found that when decomposed
blood was introduced into the veins of the
living animal all the symptoms of putrid
fever were shown, the temperature increas-
ing until death ensued. Alcohol, it is stated,
reduced the heat and retarded the putrid
process, increasing the action Of the heart
precisely the effect Of alcoholic stimulants,
it is said, when administered in case Of
rattlesnake poisoning.

A new machine for the purpose of sup
plying wind in the British House of Com
mons, has been put in operation. By means
of this apparatus constant supply of air,
cooled to any required degree, even in the
warmest weather, can be supplied at the
rate of from 10000 to 10000 gallons per
minute. The house contains about 100000
gallons Of air, SO that when the apparatus is
is working at its maximum, it is possible to
renew the air without sensible draught
every ten minutes.
