Coffee owes its stimulating and re-
freshing qualities to caffeine. 1t also
contains gum and sugar, fat, acids,
casein and wool fiber. Like tea, it
powerfully increases the respiration;
but, unlike it, does not effect its depth.
By its use the rate of the pulse is in
creased and the action of the skin di-
minished. 1t lessons the amount of
blood sent to the organs of the body,
distends the veins and contracts the
~capillaries, thus preventing waste of
tissue. 1t is a mental stimulus of a
high order, and one that is liable to
great abuse. Carried to EXCESS, il
produces abnormal wakefulness, indi-
g%estion, acidity, heartburn, tremors,
debility, irritability of temper,
trembling, irregular pulse, a kind
of intoxication ending in deli
rum and great injury to the
spinal functions. Unfortunately, there
are many coffee tipplers who depend
upon it as a drunkard upon his dram.
On the other hand, coffee is of sover
eign efficacy in tiding over the nervous
system in emergencies. Coffee is also,
in its place, an excellent medicine. In
typhoid fever its action is frequently
prompt and decisive. 1t is indicated
in the early stages before local compli-
cations arise. Coffee dispels stupor
and lethargy, is an antidote for many
kinds of poison, and is valuable in
spasmodic asthma, whooping cough,
cholera infantum and Asiatic cholera.
1t is also excellent as a preventive
against infectious and epidemic dis
eases. In districts rife with malaria
and fever, the drinking of lot coffee
before passing into the open air has
enabled persons living in such places
to escape contagion.-Journal of Com

The English Alarm.

The English seem to be having quite
an epidemic Of war frights just now.
Lord George Hamilton, of the admiralty,
attempted TO quiet the talk about danger
Of invasion by speech in Parliament,
but he has only succeeded in increas-
ing the hullabaloo. lie stated that
120 steamships of 1000 tons, or
in other words q greater tonnage
than Germany possesses, would he re-
oured to land 100000 men in England ;
and somebody at once wants to know
how william, the cODquerOr, managed TO
land sixty thousand men In England
with the miserable little boats of his day.
The ruler of the queens navy seems to
have made the mistake OF exaggerating
the obstacles in the way of invasion
and naval and military men, who
expect to profit by the scare, JOY
fully proceed to show that the land.
ing of such an army would be avery easy
matter, indeed. 1t is plainly shown that
only about half the tonnage named would
be necessary, and that liz barges and canal
boats were towed by the steamers, very
few of the latter would be needed. The
Jingoes refer to numerous instances Of
the transporting of large bodies Of men by
water and they leave opposition by
the British navy entirely out Of the ques.
ton. Possibly the combined navies OF
the several European powers might keep
the English war ships out of the way and
a landing might be affected, but wha,
powers would be rash enough to attempt
such an expedition with all its risks and
| difficulties The invasion Of the Crimea
by France and England would be trine
| IL compared with an invasion-Of the
British Isles by any two of the
strongest powers in these days OF
giant ships and guns. German and
French officers have been called upon to
express opinions in the matter and,
though both crticise the figures of Lord
George Hamilton, the French take pains
to allay the fear of invasion and the
Germans rather encourage it.

A Balloon.

A bill has just been favorably recon-
mended to the House from committee
which appropriates sl50, 600 to enable Mr..
A. dc Bausset to build an air ship. This
ship Is to be tube Of steel of sufficient
strength TO stand the atmospheric pres

out OF it when it, will rise with greater
lifting power than hydrogen gas balloon.
II 1t can be made strong enough TO stand

cess, but that sip is very serious word.
A member Of Congress, who was not con.
fdent that he knew all about everything,
condescended TO ask a mathematical and
physical expert whether balloon of steel
could be foated. The expert chose a
sphere for his calculations as the strong.
est and cheapest form in which the ship
could lie built and found that if the
sphere was one hundred feet in diameter
the thickness of the metal COMPOSING
It could not be more than one-thirti-
eth OF an inch provided it had
no braces. Ii it was thicker it would
be too heavy to float. The strength of
the steel would have to be equal to a re-
sistance of more than 10000 pounds to
the square inch to resist the crushing
weight of the air. Steel of this strength
cannot be made into such a shell.
and II the balloon is TO be braced inside.
the weight Of the braces would
have to be taken from the weig Int allowed
Tor the shell, which would have to be still
thinner. A sell like this woull
bend or buckle. Science, in publishing
the report of this expert, observes that

Captain in the l0Ist, and the following June
had risen to Lieutenant Colonel Of the regi-
ment in which capacity he served through to
the end Of the war. In 1856 he was commits
stoned First Lieutenant Of the 14th u. S. Inf,
and served in the West for 10 years when he
resigned. he was admitted to the bar just be.
fore entering the army in 1861, but since his
resignation, in 1876 he has been a farmer. lie
began his Congressional career in the 47th Con
