THE GOLDEN SILENCE.

What thought singnO other songl
What though i speak no other WOrdi
Is silence shamel Is patience wrong?
Atleast one song of mine was heard:
One echo from the mountain air,
One ocean murmur, glad and free
One sigh that nothing grand or fair
In all this world was lost to me.
i will not wake the sleeping Tyre;
/ will not strain the chords of thought;
The sweetest fruit of all desire
Comes its own way, and comes unsought.
Though all the bards of earth were dead,
And all their music passed away,
What Nature wishes should be said
She'll find the rightful voice to sayi
Her heart is in the shimnering leaf,
The drifting cloud, the lonely sky,
And all we know of bliss or grief
She speaks, in forms that can not die.
The mountain peaks that shine afar,
The silent stars, the pathless sea,
Are living signs of ali we are,
Aud types of all we hope TO be.

How TO TEST GLUE.-An article of
glue which viii stand damp atmosphere,
saws the american Journal Of Industry,
is a desideratum among mechanics, es-
pecially pattern-makers. Few know
how to Judge of the quality, except by
the price they pay for it. But price is
no criterion; neither is color, upon
which so many depend. Its adhesive
and lasting properties depend more
upon the material from which it is
made, and the method of securing pu
ritv in the raw material, for if that Is
inferior and not well cieansed, the prod
uct viii have to be unduly charged with
alum or some other antiseptic, to make
it keep during the drying process.
Weafhered glue is that which has eXpt-
rienced unfaYOrable weather while dry
ing, at which time it is rather delicate
substance. To resist damp atmosphere
well, it should contain as little saline
matter as possible. When buying the
article, apply your tongue TO it, and if
it tastes salt or acid, reject it for any
thing but the commOnest purpose. The
same operation viii also bring out any
bad smell the glue may have. These
are simple and ready tests, and are the
ones usually adopted by dealers and
large consumers. Another good test IS
to soak a weighed portion of dry glue
/ in cold water for "a hours, then dry
again and weigh. The nearer 1t al =
| proaches to its original weight the bet
/ ter glue it is, thereby showing its degree
of insolubility.

ANOTHER LETTER-COPYING DEVICE.
Herr Adler, says the English Necba11-
&c, has communicated to the Vienna
Photographic Society a multiplying
process based upon the use of the
glue-plate, consisting of gelatine,
glycerine and water (hough the
last named ingredient is pres
ent in smaller quantity than usU-
all, used in the hektOgraph and other
similar processes. For writing or draw
ing, Herr Adler uses a concentrated So
luton of alum, to which, in order to
render the writing or drawing visible
upon the paper, a few drops of some
aniliDe color are added. Before laying
the writing or drawing upon the gela-
tine surface, pass damp sponge over
the latter, and allow the mixture to sink
in for a few minutes, so as TO have
greater effect upon the alum. Then lay
the written side downward upon the
gelatine, and, after the lapse of a few
minutes, on removing it, the writing
will be found reversed and eaten into
the geIatine film as if it were engraved.
By means of an india-rubber roller a
little common printing ink is spread
over the plate and absorbed by the
lines sunk by the alum, and again re-
iected on the application of moisture
upon the paper laid down upon it, and
smoothed over it by the flat hand.
When removed, this paper will have
upon it the first impression of the writ
ing or drawing For each succeeding
impression the plate must be linked, as
in lithOgraphy, by the india-rubber
roller. A considerable number of inn
pressions can be taken.

USEFUL AND SCIENTIFIC.

Court PLAsTER-The Scientific
American gives the following directions
for making this useful article: Soak
isinglass in a little warm water for sew
enty-fOur hours; then evapOrate nearly
ali the water by gentle heat; dissolve
the residue in a little dilute alcohol, and
strain the whole through piece of open
linen. The strained mass should be n
stiff jelly when cold. Now stretch
piece of silk or sarsenet on Il wooden
frame, and fix it tight with tacks or pack
thread. Melt the Jelly, and apply it to
the silk thinly and evenly with q badger
hair brush. A second coating must be
applied when the first has dried. When
both are dry, apply over the whole sur
face two or three coatings of balsam of
Peru. Plaster thus made is very pliable,
and never breaks.

A COOP GRINDsToNE.-The A1ne7t-
can Builder thus sums up the qualities
of a good grindstone: 1t should be
strong, simple and clean; the trough
expanded, TO catch as much as possible
of the drip water and grit; a
movable shield securely hinged to
keep the water from splash
ing, and yet permit the stone to
be used from either side; rests provided
upon which to rest tools and the rod for
turning the stone, these rests being ar
ranged to move toward the center as the
stone wears smaller. The bearings
should be generous in size, proper pro-
vision being made for oiling without
washing the grit into the bearings with
the oil, and the ends OF the bearings
being protected by some device which
effectually prevents the entrance of the
grit. The stone should be secured TO
the shaft so that they can not turn with
the nuts as they are screwed up or un-
screwed. In hanging the stone great
care should be taken to hang it true
sidewise, not only for convenience in
using, but because a stone that is not
true sidewise can never be kept true
/ edgewise.

REMOVING IRON RUsT.-The Difficult
ty of making small steel and iron arts
icles bright by removing the "scale -
or oxide can, says the Electro AetaIEitr-
giSt, be readily overcome by the fol-
lowing process, without having
recourse to the ordinary One-that of
securing after picking with dilute sui
phuric acid. First let the articles be
plunged into boiling solution of caustic,
potash or soda, for a few minutes to re-
move greasy matter. Then rinse in
clean water. Next, place the articles
in weak pickle of sulphuric acid
about half pound of acid to each gal
Ion of water. From ten to twenty min
utes immersion is generally sufficient to
loosen the scale. Let the article be
again rinsed and afterward dipped by
means of a perforated stoneware basket
into strong solution of commercial
nitric acid for an instant, when the black
oxide will be Immediately removed. The
dipping basket should have a rotary
motion given to it while in the acid and
then removed promptly and plunged
into cold water. The article may then
be coppered, silvered or gilt with ease.
