Prot. Silliman writing to the n. Y. Herald
from England gives short descriptive accoun,
Of the experimental farm Of RO,han stead.
This is the property Of a wealthy Engiishman
Ono. b. Lawes) who has devoted . handsome
income and number Of years Of his time to az
ricultural experiments. They consist OF treat.
ing different soils with numbee OF chemically
prepared fertilizers, and noting the effects
good or bad upon plants growing upon them.
The plants are also experimental upon with
different modes OF chemical action. while In
the different stages Of vegetable lie. All the
results OF these experiments are carefully noted.
and will be given to the void Tor the benefit
OF all intelligent Agricultural people. ThIs we
presume would be Of incalculsbse benefit 70
the farmers OF the Eastern and Soatheru states
where the lands which have been worked ioe
the last iiffy years are beginning to wear out.
In some Of the Southern states fertilizers have
been used for two OF three years and many
beneficial results derived thereirom.

A new project is on foot. which smacks very
much oft visionary, but which seems to
commend the confidence of few capitalists
who have invested freely, with the hope Of
making it practical certainty. The project
consists in constructing alright machinery
adjacent to, and directly beneath one side Of
the Niagara Falls, to receive into reservoirs q
certain volume Of the water thrown BY the
fall with its powerful force into them. which
are expected to compress air into number OF
powerful cylinders that are. In turn to trans
nit this air into series ofpipes which convey
it to the city of Buffalo, to be utilized In the
same manner as steam. It is thought that this
compressed air will be harnessed so as 20 run
all the manufactures in the city: pump water
into the water-works, and perform all the work
that has heretofore been done by steam.

Mr. Maskelyne has added to the re-
markable mechanical contrivances ex-
hibited at the Egyptian Hall, in Messrs.
Maskelyne and Cookies entertainment,
q trumpeter called FatDare. 1t is not
the first time q mechanical! trumpeter
has been shown to the public. Maelzel,
the inventor OF the metronome, exhibit
ed q trumpetcr at Vienna in 1909, but
1t was not successful. The sound in that
automaton was produced by pipes with.
in the figure, the arrangement bcing a
reduction in miniature Of that which
gives the trumpet-stop, occasionally en-
ployed with grand effect in church or
gans. In 1850, Van Oeckelen produced
q clarionet player. Musical automata
Of other kinds have been frequently
exhibited. One inventor in France ar
ranged in his instrument pigs, which
squealed in different notes, and he pro-
duced scale or an air by pulling in the
required order the tails of several pigs.
In Charter-house square an amateur
has collected q very numerous assem-
blage Of automatic. Many musical auto
mata have beed contrived by clock ,aa-
kers, and the greatest perfection has
been arrived at in this class of work for
the reason, doubtless, that in tho pro-
ductlon Of musical sound there is moth
ing essentially human, as in DRAWN &
for instance, like Zoe, or in playing
whist, like Psyche .-London Times.

Commercial reports are to the effect that
trade is now almost at stand-still, taking q
short rest for the purpose Of recuperating, and
preparing to grasp with renewed energy the
heavyoinfux Of business soon to be revived,
when the heavy crop now being harvested will
have been prepared and placed upon the
market. Many people in the different paths
of business life seem 20 be imbued with joyous
expectancy, and are bracing themselves to
win substantial comforts, and .mayhap. lay up
something from the multifarious earnings to
be thrown in their way by the heavy tide soon
to set in.

week at the works near Wayne station, N. j..
which is described US most terrific in its force.
Through some unaccountable means q store
house containing about 600 pounds Of nitro
glycerine caught fire, and when discovered
the workmen ran for their lives. having just
time to arrive at safe distance when the ex-
plosion occurred. Even then, some were
thrown to the ground and others tossed into
the air. Seven buildings were completely de-
molished. The shock was also severely felt at
Paterson seven miles distant.
