Mr.Owen submitted the following: ‘ Resol-

ted, were inoculated with the varioloid mat-
ter, and in consequence had the disease itiuch
lighter than any of the others. .Tbe idea is
becoming daily more prevalent with some of
our most respectable physicians in this city,
that this new and troublesome disease is in re-
ality no more than an exacerbated form of
chicken pox: an opinion that seems more rec-
oncileable with facts than any other has been

Small P02: in the Brute Creation".-—Tltct'e
is a very extraordinary fact, mentioned in the
Medical Intelligencer, of this city, viz : the in-
oculation ofS/tcep with Sntall Pox! The world
has hitherto thought that it was impossible to
comtnuiiicate Small Pox to any animal what-
ever, Man alone excepted. The celebrated
John Hunter tried all our domestic quadru-
peds, aitd by all means, even putting the vari-
olus matter iitto the veins ofdogs, cats, horses,
and even cows and monkeys, atid never could
comiiiutiicate the distemper‘.
We give no credit whateverto M.Von Hoff-
man’s inoculation ofsheep. A protecting Pro-
vidence has wisely and benevoleiitly ordered
that the brute creation should be incapable of
taking small pox. What would be the conse-
quence if horses, dogs, cats, bears, foxes, &.c.
could take the small pox ? They would exter-
urinate tltetiiselves. Distempers have their
laws, as fixed as those which botind and guard
the species ofanimals.—Boslonpaper.

./I River on F'i'rc.—A paper published at
Sparta. Teiiiiesscc, gives ati interesting ac.
count ofthe novel fact ofa river being onfire!
It appears that a Mr. Deiiton, while boring for
salt, about the 20th of Jan., struck suddenly
tipou a vein nfsiilpliurc_oiis gas, _which, in as-
cending, found another vent than the tube,
through a rock in the bed ofthe river, forcing
a passage througli the surrounding waters,
which boiled with considerable violence round
the place ofits escape. A torch was then cati-
tiously applied, which quickly cominunicated
to the gas, and a blaze iiiconceivably grand
burst upwards to t.lu.-lteiglit offorty feet appar-
oiiily fi~om the very bed ofthe river. The
cloud above the blaze exhibited a mixture of
colours beautiful beyond description, and a
ruddy dismal light, gave to various objects the
hues ofgrecn and red, yellow and blue. For
tu o eli-ments so advcrsc in their nature. thus
to associate and coinmingle as it were, pres-
ented such an anotnalv, as, for the moment,
annihilated all idea,th:it fire and waterdeliglit-
ed in separation. A writer who was one ofa
paity which went to view the phenomenon,
says: As we approached-within two miles of
the Wells, our attentioti was suddenly arrest-
ed, by seeing corruscations of light quivering
on the edge ofthe horizon, which was illumi-
net] with an titisteaky, flickering glare. Ar-
rived at the spot, a scene presented itself, that
beggars description. A column of fire nearly
forty feet in height, ascended frotn near the
middle ofthe river, here abotitfifty yards wide,
illuininating surrounding objects within the
distance of two hundred yards.--Spectator.
.Mr. Leslic’s River Glass.—-\Ve had intend-
ed to notice this sitnple, btit ingenious invent-
ioti, in out last. It is a tithe, that may be va-
ried iti length as occasion shall require, about
an inch broad at the top, where the eye is ap-
plied and regularly enlarging to the bottom,
which bears a proportion to tlieotlier end, of
about 10 to I, in diameter. Each end is gla-
zed. The use of it is to examine the bottoms
The great reason why one can-
not look through water to the bottom, is the
i'eflectiori and refraction of the rays oflight
upon arriving at the surface. This glass ov-
ercomes that difficulty, by extending the eye,
asit were, into the denser itiediuui, and mak-
tug use of the light which is in the water,
where the rays pursue right lines, as well as
in the rarer medium of the air. Foruse in
the night, it is fitted with lamps suspended
near the bottom in ashorter cylinder, which
goes on over the top ofthe tube and descends
till the bottoui ofthe cylinder is as low as the
bottom of the tube, and there it is seciired.-—
In the space between the cylinder and tube,
lamps are suspended ; the mouth of the cylin-
der, as well as tube, being glazed. To let off
the smoke ofthe lamps, and supply them with
air, two small pipcs,the first from the top, and
the second from the bottom of the c_vlitider,
lead up the side of the tube. The lamps
throw a strong light around, and the bottom of
the river is easily examined. The correct-
tress ofthe principle oti which the value oftliic
iiistruiiienttlepends, has been fully tested by
every swimmer, who has opened his eyes tin-
der-water, and thus discovered, what, while
his eyes were above the water he"could not
discern. The uses ofstich an instrument will
readily occur. Among other interesting ones,
the speedy recovery ofdrowned personsis one,
and it would doubtless be the means of saving
many lives. Lost property too,tnay be found,
and ‘tlie._impetl‘tineiitsto excavation discovered,
and their removal lhcilitated. The name of
the inventor of this River ‘Glass is William
Leslie, of Lansinburgli, originally from Mass.
For a short time past l_ie has been employed
in this city. He is well known in this vicitiity
for his mechanical ingenuity.—Troy Scnlincl.
Vegetable milk.—-In addition to the vegeta-
ble bread, vegetable butter, and cabbage tree,
which have been brought to light by recent
ti-avellers,we now learn by the Gazette rl’Saii-
ta, of the 925th July last, that M.de Hiiuiboldt
has discovered in that region a tree which a-
btindaiitly affords a milkyijuice, similar in its
properties to the milk of auiinals,and employ-
ed for the same purposes. This liqttid,wliicli
was drank by Humboldt, is stated to be deriv-
ed from the palo de _teche, or de vaca, a tree
which grows abundantly in the iiiotiiitaiiis a-
bove Periquito, to the north east of Mai-acay,
a village to the west of Caraccas. The milk
possesses the same physical qualitiesas that
of the cow, with only thisgdilference, that it is
a little viscous; it has the same taste also as
cows’ mi|k.—.N'. Y. Eveiziiig Post.
The “ lVondei_'ful S/tip.”——It was stated a
few days since, that a ship ofuntisually large
dimensions, was building at Quebec. It was
questioned by many whether such a vessel as
was described in the letter, was actually build-
ing. For ourselves, we fttlly believed it,
knowing that during the past summer, several
ship-carpenters had arrived at Quebec, from
Scotland, with the intention of building two
vessels ofabove 1000 tons each ; that a large
quantity of ltiinber ltad been purchased for
that purpose, atid a depot foruied at Port Pat-
rick, a few miles below Quebec, on the island
of Orleans. This is confirtned by a Londoti
paper, ofrecetit date, in which it is stated,that
“ a gentleman of Port Glasgow has devised a
method of importing timber, which, ifsiiccess-
ful, will tend to reduce very materially its
price. The plan is simply to lay down a keel
300 feet in length,-as for a ship of extraordin-
cry dimensions ; upon this base asuperstruct-
ure ofsolid logs is to be reared, and the exter-
nal surface catilked and pitched over. Hav-
ing prepared the lower part of the litill, itis
then to be launched ; the building is then to
be proceedeil in a float, forming a solid mass
of timber, with the exception ofa space for the
inacbinery of two very powerful:_ steaiti-eii-
gines, by which it is intended to propel the
huge raft. In this way, it is calculated, that a
single iuiportation may extend to 15,000 tons
—a quantity oftiiiiber which would require 30
vessels of 500 totis burden to carry. This
scheme, it is said, has been submitted to the
couimittee at Lloyd’s, and received their ap-
probation; and, it is added, that the under-
writers have entered so far itito the views of
the projector, asto take the risk ofthe experi-
itietital cargo, now in preparation for the voy-
age, from one ofonr ports in Canada, at the
ordinary rate of preiiiiuni.”—-Spectator.
