An English Strong Room.

The London Daily NcDs gives the
following description of the new prem
Uses OF the Safe Deposit Company in
Bucklersbury, London: The building,
roughly speaking, is divided into two
divisions-namely, Office and safe.
There are in the building four tiers of
safes, and, as tenders to them, four tiers
of offices. These two divisions are sep
arated by brick wall eight feet thick,
through which there is only one entrance
on each floor, each entrance being mas
sive corrugated iron door that has stood
the test of two days fire without finch
ing. The safe division of the build
ing contains thirty-two distinct cham
bers, and each chamber contains many
hundreds of compartments, great and
small, for the deposit of papers, etc.
The walls of this gigantic safe are COM
posed of three feet of the hardest blue
Statfordshire brick, with an exterior of
fire bricks, and inside there is an armor
plating four inches thick, cast on q
wrought-iron gridiron, that is calculated
to make entrance doubly impossible.
Around this parent safe there is a clearly
defined passage, which will be patrolled
hiShI anu tltJ. IL etcH department. OF
this gigantic depository there is door
composed of twelve inches in thickness,
of solid steel, slid into grooves by hy-
draulic machinery, behind which there
is perpetual pressure of 100 tons.
These doors are composed of steel so
tempered that the greatest expert who
could be found in the country after
drilling vigorously for week found that
he had progressed only half an inch, and
retired disheartened. To guard against
nefarious entrance to the premises by
boring from below, there is, as a final
floor to the building, tank of eight feet
of water, to reach which an enterprising
burglar would have to engineer his way
through forty-five feet of concrete for
the mere pleasure of finding himself
drowned like a rat in hole. The water
in this tank is used for variety of pur-
poses, being ultimately sent with rush
to the top of the building. The steam
engines, boilers and all the machinery
are duplicate, so that one set failing the
concern will not be brought to stand
still

Intelligence of Bees.

A writer in the London Spectator
vouches for the truth of the following
story, which certainly shows that bees
have the power of communicating with
each other, and also of concerning a sa-
gacious and successful plan of action
A boy, amusing himself with pet jack
daw in the garden one evening, APP
preached an apiary, and the bird hoped
on the platform in front of one of the
hives. The bees had nearly all come
home from their days labor, but the
few laggards lowering about their door
as Jack stood beside it were instantly
snapped up by him. The massacre had
continued for minute or so, when some
bees issued from the door of the hive as
if to reconnoiter. They were dispatched
like the rest, and then there came an
ominous pause. No bee made himself
visible, but there was loud, angry hum
of excitement within the hive. Present
ly there poured from the outlet of the
citadel a swift, strong, unbroken stream
of bees aimed directly at the offending
Jackdaw. He was attacked ON every
side, and, overpowered by numbers, fled
ut once but rapidly as he shot away,
he could but keep neck and neck with
his pursuers that like cloud enveloped
him for the distance of nearly mile.
He then fell fluttering to the earth, and
the boy picked him up with his eyes
closed and his head swollen to twice its
natural size.

The Products of Russia.

The book of Herr VonLengenfeldt
gives quantity of interesting informa-
ton concerning the production and con
sumption in Russia of tobacco, beer,
spirits, sugar, salt and flour. The num-
Der of flour mills of all kinds, except
those most primitive ones which are
driven by hands, is 81, 800 and these
produce flour annually to the value of
$50, 625, 900. The greater number of
these mills are driven by water, winh
and horse power, there being few steam
mills. The flour is generally of an in
ferior quality, Notwithstanding that the
wheat is excellent. Salt in Russia should
be very plenty and very cheap, but it is
rather scarce, and the tax on native salt
is so high that imported salt is found TO be
often cheaper as well as better. The
total production of native salt is about
900, 600, 900 pounds year. Some of it
is made 10y grinding the rock salt, but
the most of it is procured 10y boilin g the
water of salt lakes and springs. 1t sells
ut one-half to one cent pound, accord
ing to quality. Nearly all the sugar pro-
duced in Russia is made from beat-roots,
and amountst to about S15, zoo, 900 a year.
The total consumption of sugar in Rus
sla, imported and foreign, is only about
lOl, 800, 600 pounds year, or less than
three pounds for each person. OF
brandy, 81, 10000 900 gallons, and 27,000,-
BOO gallons of beer are produced in
year. About S12, 100000 worth of ma
i've tobacco is annually manufactured

A Cure for COnsump:ion.

Under the head of Pulmonary Gym.
nastics," DIR. Burg, of Paris, has pub
lished the following curious dissertation,
which contains advice which may be
useful to such persons as are afflicted
with weakness in the chest. He begins
with stating the question fairly: care
defamation, singing, and, above all,
wind instruments, dangerous exercises
for persons of weak or delicate constitu-
tons, and more or less predisposed by
birth to serious diseases of the respira-
tory organs" Most physicians, he Oh
serves, will answer in the affirmative; he
takes the contrary ground, supported by
what we deem startling evidence. DIR.
Burg, it may be remembered, was the
first who proposed copper as a specific
in cholera, on the ground that workmen
constantly handling that metal had ira
versed the epidemic of 1S49 with impu-
nifty. In order to establish this fact he
had visited a variety of large workshops,
and among others those of manufacturers
of wind instruments. On one of these
occasions M. Sax gave him the following
information, which we here repeat almost
word for word: Besides choleric i'm
munity, our workmen enjoy another
they are free from consumption. Many
philanthropists on seeing our young
military musicians WELD the enormous
instruments we make have sorrowed
over the few years those poor fellows
would have to live. Well, they are mis-
taken. All men who make it their pro-
fession to try wind instruments made at
the various factories before sending them
off for sale, all, without exception to my
knowledge, are free from pulmonary
affections. 1 have known many such
who, upon entering upon their profes-
sion, were very delicate, and who, though
their duty obliged them to blow hours
together, enjoyed perfect health after
certain time. L am myself an instance
of this. My mother died of consump-
ton; eight children of hers fell victims
to the same disease, and only three of us
survive, and we all three play on wind
instruments. The day is not far distant,
perhaps, when physicians will have re-
course to our dreaded art in order to
conquer pulmonary diseases. D."

made contract with the Great Northern
Telegraph Company, which has cables
along the Chinese coast, for it's construc
ton. No sooner, however, was the first
section of the line completed than the
natives discovered That the putting up of
the poles interfered with the benign
influence of the Fung-shin of the dis
trict," and turning ont by thousands
they uprooted the poles. This stopped
the work, whereupon the company APP
pealed to the authorities for protection,
and ultimately the intercesslon OF the
foreign Ministers was invoked al Pekin.
This was successful, and now new con
tract has been made, under which thor
cugh protection is guaranteed. The

PROVISIONS.

The aggregate amount of business transacted
in this market was quite liberal, but prices
were rather irregular, being higher for mess
pork, but shade easier on lard. Eastern adj
vices were not very favorable in tenor, but the
market was governed mainly by local specu
lators. and outside reports had but little infu-
ence in directing the course of the market, At
the close of the week sales of cash mess pork
sold at @21. 75a22.00. closed quiet at SOL rs ;
seller September sold at S2l.60@21.75, closed
at the inside seller October closed steady at
$21.00. Cash lard closed quiet at S12.S5, and
seller October at 5129001295.
PRODUCE.
There was no particular alteration in the con-
dtion of the butter market during the past
week. There was but little demand on ship
ping and there were but few repackers on the
market buying. The receipts were again very
light and the supply of the better grades was
barely sufficient to meet the requirements of
the trade. The adviceg received from Eastern
markets were again discouraging IN tenor, but
these reports had no apparent effect i'll the
market and although the business transacted
was light prices were steady and firm, and
they are at present higher at this market
than any other large distributing point.
The market closed at 23(d2Sc for extras, 1870

Pint.Cup People.

A pint cup may not be ill-treated for
not holding a quart. This is indeed a
new measure of moral obligation. The
man undertakes your argument, project,
or improvement, because he cannot CON
tain it. He does not report you correct
iy because he cannot carry all your
ideas. He is pint cup. Your friend
betrays your secret. 1t is your own fault.
You put too much in a small vessel, and
it slops over. Your neighbor has mar
row views, feelings and politics, and
they do not enlarge. Be gentle toward
him, for small measures cannot afford to
be very liberal, and pint cups come to
their growth early. They are required
to hold but pint. BmriU.

Weekly Review of the Chicago Marks,


FINANCIAL.
There was no change to note in rates, the
abundance of money and comparatively light
demand enabling borrowers with good security
to obtain favors at 7010 per cent. Govern
ment bonds firm and steady, with good in
quiry.
BREADSTUFFs.
The grain markets during the past week
have attracted considerable attention from
spectators, and a liberal business was trans
acted. The markets have been very unsettled
and fluctuations in values were both frequent
and severe. The closing quota TONS how
ever, show slight advance on wheat, oats and
barley and declineon corn. The main influence
governing the movements of spectators was
the weather. Fine favorable weather produced
a desire to sell, while prices would rule lower
under the heavy offerings, then again when it
would be cold sellers would hold off and buyers
would take hold freely causing a reaction and
an improv ement in values. The receipts were
generally higher and the shipments heavier,
the stock in store showing steady decrease,
and holders are therefore firmer in their views.
Corn was the chief center of interest the mar
ket at one time ruling 4c lower, then recovered
2d3c and closed steady. Eastern advices
were generally favorable. The markets closed
steady all round.
The following table shows the prices current
at the opening and close of the past week:

but its construction has thus far been be-

would be advantageous, and accordingly
