being able to read anything. The man of

frequently produces on them NEST un-
looked-for results. At Keithley, at the
beginning of the present century, lived a
young man named William Sharp. He
fell desperately in love with girl, the
daughter Of neighboring farmer-a-
Everything went smoothly till the we'd
ding morning, when the father could not
agree how much to give the young couple
to start them in life; and literally at the
last moment in church the match was
broken off, This was TOO much for the
weak mind of William Sharp; he went
home, went to his bed, and never rose
from it again. a. .#
He was just thirty when he thus iso-
lated himself from active life, and he
died in his bed at the age of seventy-fivc.
His room was about nine feet square.
The floor was stone, and generally damp.
The window was permanently fastened /;
some of the panes were filed in with
wood; and at the time of his death it
had not been opened for thirty-eight
years.
In this dreary cell did this strange be-
ing immure himself He obstinately re-
fused to speak, and gradually every trace
of intelligence faded away. His father
left an ample provision for his eccentric
son, and he was well looked after. He
ate as much as an ordinary day laborer,
and at his death weighed above sixteen
stone.
In Harrogate, several years ago, lived
woman who, for the same cause, be
haved in exactly the same manner Her
parents having preyented her marriage
with a worthless character, she took to
her bed and had kept it for fifteen years.
and if not dead, is probably keeping it
still.

IN improved system of pavement for
roads and footways has been brought to the
attention of thu Society of Arts, London,
by Mr. Galloway, well known engineer.
He proposes to use harl wood as grown,
cut into lengths, and laid down side by
side, with the intermediate spaces filled up
with many bituminous silicos mixture Such
q road would be more firm and durable than
the present soft wood-the hard wood, as
grown, would contain tha natural sap, and
prevent the absorption of water. 1t is
also proposed to make the foundation by
using plate iron, or metal, cast TO form the
curvature for the road This plan, the ia-
ventor argues, has in its favor the advan-
tase of bott,r quality of the more dur
able wood, less outlay for making, and
less cost for maintenance and repairs. In
the construction Of ,footways, he recon-
msnds = as uniting artistic beauty with
durability-the cutting of strips of zinc,
brass, or copper, and oementing these strips
in such forms as to make whatever confg-
urations might be desired, the divisional
spaces to be filled up with different colors
by means of some readily hardening COM
pound. ..

IT is well understood that compressed air
on being released from pressure, can be
cooled down to very low temperature, by
throwing into it a jet of cold water. This
fact has been made available for the con-
struction of a refrigerator or freezing cham
Der, and series of experiments lately made
in France, on an extensive scale, appear to
have proved the invention a success. In
half an hour after beginning to work the

ANOTHER method of treating iron so as

ANOTHER method of treating iron so as to
insure its preservation, is among the recent
foreign inventions In this case the
oxygen for the production of the magnetic
oxide with which the surface is to be
covered is obtained simply from air. The
articles are placed in retort, which may
be herme tlcally closed, and the air ad-
Initted TO the interior of the retort inter
mittantly, the intervals being about one
hour. The retort is heated to tempera-
ture varying from dull to bright red
heat, and the process is continued for a
greater or less period, according to the
nature of the article and the use to which
it il destined. 1t appears that the pro-
cess can be applied to cast iron as well
NJ wrought iron, and also to steel, and
that the articles present an elegant appear
auce.

AN ingenious method Of recovering color
ing matters from wool or woollen fabrics
is described in the hfoaiteur I,,dust, iei
Beige The materials are placed in q
digester of great strength, and exposed
to the action of steam at o high pressure,
until all the coloring matters they contain
are entirely dissolved. A weight of 1,O00
Kilograms, or 2,2O4.6 pounds, it is neces-
sary to expose for six hours under pres
sure of forty to fifty kilograms per three
centimetres square-that is, seyenty-fiye to
ninety-four pounds per 50. m. When the
solution is complete, water Is added, and
the whole boiled for some minutes to render
the mass more fluid; IL is then passed
through a coarse filter to retain foreign
matters, and through second filter to re-
tain the indigo, cochineal, madders, or
other coloring matters. These colors are
washed with water, filtered again, and
dried. The solution which has passed
through the filters can be used in the man
ufacture of prussiate of potash, sulphats of
ammonia, &c.

A METHOD of equalizing the wear in hori
zontal steam cylinders has been brought to
the notice of the English Society of En-
gineers, in a ,commupication by Mr. 4Schon.
heyder, one of the best authorities on such
subjects. The great and unequal wear of
the cylinder, in this case, is due, he says,
to the weight of the piston continually rub
bing backward and forward on it, and to
the difficulty found in ,lubricating it suf-
ciently, especially when the cylinder is
kept hot by the now universal steam jacket.
After enumerating tho evils resulting from
such unequal wear of cylinders and p;stons,
and describing the most important expedi-
+ent for prevent it, Mr.. 81 explained his
own method Of remedyina the evil. and
