heterogeneous process recently intro
duced in France for etectrotyping on
non-conducting material, such as china,
etc., is likely to prove Of peculiar value,
both for practical and artistic purposes,
but is evidently one requiring much care
in order to insure fair degree of suc-
cess. 1t appears that sulphur is dis
solved in the oil of lavendula spica to a
syrupy copsistence; and then chloride of
gold or chloride of platinum is dis
solved in sulphuric ether, and the two
solutions are in this state mingled under
gentle heat. The compound is next
evaporated until of the thickness of or
dinary paint, in which condition it is
applied with brush to such portions OF
the china, glass, or other fabric, as are
desired to be covered, according to the
design or pattern, with the electro-me.
tallic deposit. The objects are baked'
in the usual way before they are i'm

The survey Of the bar at the mouth of
the Columbia river was made in May
and June by Captain Jesson and Mr..
Tabor by direction Of Col. Wilson. The
area sounded over was 80 square miles.
Four hundred and fOrty.eiyht miles,
were run in making soundings. Two
thousand three hundred and eighty.tour
angles were observed and 1881 sound
ings made. The work has now been
plated; the l8 feet curves at mean low
water are 5000 feet apart, AMI the least
depth in the ship channel at this stage is
cot feet: the tide rises from six to nine
feet Commercial Reporter.

DEATH IN THE WELL.-Always before
going into vault or well, or deep pit,
let down light; it it goes out, death is
at the bottom, because there is carbonic
acid gas there, which is an mir that has
no support for the lungs, gives no life to
the blood, and we as certainly die, and
as soon, as if we had no air at all AS IT
smothered, or in the water, or hung.
But if a person has fallen into the well
and some one must 60 down, the quickest
plan to purity the air, and to get rid OF
the carlonic acid gas, is to throw quick.
lime into the well, if there is any water
at the bottom; if not, then throw some
in; this throws the heat, which rarities
tn, carbonic acid and sends it to the top;
besides, the dissqlving lime absorbs it.
Large quantities of cold water thrown
in is q substitute; or set shavings or pa
per on fire and let them fall to the bot.
tom the fresh water absorbs, the fame
rarifes the gases.-Dr Hall.

The grand mistake that young men
make during the first ten years Of their
business life, is in idly waiting for the
chance. BY this course they are fasten-
ing themselves for life to lower stratum.
These years are golden years in which
everything which tends to personal or
professional excellence should be an oh
ject of daily pursuit. To such men,
doors of success open of themselves at
last. Work seeks the best hands as nat
urally as water runs down hill it never
seeks the hand of triAer, or OF one
whose only recommendation is that be
needs it.

A BEAUTIFUL AILoY.-A beautiful al.
10y, resembling silver, and capable of
being wrought into innumersbls forms OF
use or ornament, has been int oduccd
into some OF the Paris establishments
and a large demand created for the arti.
cles produced. AS given, the material
employed in this compound are II per
cent. of lopper, 1866 of nickel, 1.75 of
cobalt, 25 of tin, l26 of iron, and OF
zinc. The nickel is first melted with an
equal amount OF copper, and the zinc in
the proportion of six parts of that metal
to ten OF copper. The iron, the rest of
the copper, and the cobalt in the form
of an oxide, are then fused at high
temperature in graphite crucible with
the first alloy and charcoal under cover
of charcoal. To this the zinc, alloyed
with copper, is added when the tempera.
ture has fallen to point ut which it
will simply melt. The crucible is then
removed from the fire, the contents stir
red with wooden rod, the tin wrapped
in paper added, and the mass stirred
again aud poured out. Most of the zinc
volatilizes in the operation.

Terry's command had encountered the
hostiles and the latter had been hanked
by Gen. Gibbon and badly beaten. The
Indians acknowledge 100 wounded and
that Sitting Bull had been shot through
both thighs. They are quiet on the sub
ject of the number killed. As an Indian
can travel by direct ioute from Sitting
Bull to the Agency sooner by several
days than courier could reach Bismarck
from Terry, the report is generally be-
lieved here.
