The Journal If Pharmacy contains
the following recipe for mucilagc to mend
fossils and minerals, which has been used
with great success by Prof. r. p. Whit
field, of Albany, N. Y. Starch, two dr.. ;
white sugar one or; gum arabic, two dr.
water, in sufficient quantity. Dissolve
the gum, add the sugar, and boil until the
starch is cooked. Prof. Whitfield is in
the habit of drying the compound in
sheets on paper, and dissoiying it as oc.
casion requires.
1T is claimed that the steam-hammer
lately erected at Woolwich, England, is
the largest piece of mechanism of its kind
in all Europe The weight of the falling
portion is nearly forty tons, and its force
OF impact is greatly augmented by the use
of steam to drive it down from the top,
the augmentation being estimated to equal
the force represented by allowing the
hammer to fall, OF its own weight, from a
height of eighty feet. 1t has been al.
lowed striking fall of fifteen feet three
inches. The hammer is forty -five feet
high, and covers, with its supports, base
of about l20 square feet Its weight is
about 500 tons above the ground, and the
iron used in the foundation below weighs
6B5 tons.

There is grave reason To fear that the real
nature of the operation by which these

about the Inconsistencies that burlesques

The pride of the old country garden
was always conferred in the hop-vines and
horseradish bed; that is mean, in all
well-regulated places, for there were as
many slovenly people in those days as
now. These two plants are usually stuck
away into some corner, as Objectionable
features, and as vegetables that will take
care of themselves AT any rate but | beg
leave to dider from this opinion, as they
are each highly benefited By liberal cult

both propagated with very little trouble,
merely dividing the crowns. and, in the

autograph and photograph
albums, toy books, books for children,
fancy stationery, pens, pencils, &c. An
almost new line in this market is their !
collection of field and opera glasses,
some Of which are especially handsome
and expensive. They have, likewise, IL
full supply of microscopes and stere-
oscopic views, which have now become
almost a necessary article in the draw
ing room. OF portable desks, ladies'
work boxes, miniature bureaus, &C.,
their assortment is large and compre-
hensive, and many of these articles are
really splendid. They have, also, a |
very full line of games, comprising
everything that can be desired, and
ranging from low prices to the most
beautiful and expensive. Their lines
of pictures and picture frames, orna-
mental notices, brackets, fancy bask-
cts, &C., are very full and choice.
Lastly, there are eoys! Yes, toys
and the variety is innumerable. The
mechanical toys are sufficient of them
selves to occupy the attention of ali the
youngsters around, several hours in the
day, and these form very insigni6.
cant part of the aggregate stock of toys.
There are besides, monkeys, steam cars
dogs, Noah's Arks, horses, livery stables,
sheep, banks, soldiers, drums,- It's of
no use for us to attempt it. We should
require sheet as large as the New
York Herald and diamond type to print
it on, in order to give a catalogue Of
the toys in this establishment, for it is
crowded with them. And there arc
the dolls !! beautiful little efigies of
humanity, some Of which are not so
very little either. There are wax dolls.
and china dolls, and rubber dolls, and
dolls that cry, and dolls that don't cry.
We recommend our readers who want
to make presents to 60 to Lawrence &
Co.'s, and take their pocket-books WELL
filed along, and they cannot fail to find
enough in which to invest, and that ju-
diciously, and moreover they will get the
articles very cheap.

AsMagnificent Display.

This community owes it to the house
Of Lawrence s. Go. to give them liberal
patronage for their enterprise and pub
lie spirit: They have just got their es-
tablishment 6lled and fitted up for the
holidays, and more rare and,attractive
display of holiday wares cani hardly be
found even in similar establishments in
large cities. Their assortment of
bronzes comprises some very choice
pieces, amongst which are several which
are quite costly. They have, also, an
elegant collection of statuettes in bis.
cult porcelain, which are beautiful; and
we hardly ever 1saw q finer display Of
toilet wares, vases, mantel ornaments,
ornamental cups, and other articles of
uertu, in china, Dresden china, and
opaque glass. In fact, to one out of
the trade, it is hard to believe
that the demand for such articles
in this community will justify the in
vestment.
In gift books they have, also, very
choice selection, which are really valua-
bic for what they contain, as well
for their fashionable and showing bind
ings. Amongst these we found about
ill the standard English authors, both
classic and modern, and nearly all the
standard American works. The Messrs.
Lawrence & Co. deserve credit for pro-
viding works Of this character for the
rising generation Of readers in this city,
for it is our opinion, that, next to care
full parental training, nothing conduces
to elevate the moral tone and instil cor
rect principles more than good books,
which contain at once attractive and
agreeable entertainment and useful in
struction. Those who cultivate taste
for such reading need never be lonely
when alone, and when in company are
never at loss for subjects Of CONVERSE
ton which are interesting even to the
uncultivated nearer We hope Messrs.
Lawrence II Co. may find ready sale
for all such books.
Besides. the above, they have a choice
assortment of bibles, prayer-books,

The J. 0. 0. F.'s Of Red Wing are
to give Il festival on the Goth instant,
which will be next Wednesday. This,
we are told is the first occasion of the
Order offering an entertainment in Red
Wing, and they intend making it, in
every way, one Of the most attractive
and pleasant of the season, and expect
large number of participants. The
festival proper will be held at TEMPER
ance hall, commencing at FIVE clock,
p. M, and at eight o'clock the Opera
hall will be opened for dancing. The
members of the encampment will wear
full regalia on the occasion. The CON-

very efficient one and will do everything
to make the affair success. Fifty
cents will be charged for tickets to the
supper.

has such writer's as "Peterson.' This
magazine is cheaper than ever for 1877.
Single copies are two dollars a year,
but five copies are sent for $500, with
