ARTIFICIAL FOUNTAINS.
Iirone of his last fetters from England, Mr.

“ The reservoir frotn rrliich these fouiitaitis
are supplied is on a riioor, a thousand icet a-
bove the level of the ‘Dcrwenl. It covers a‘-
bottt fifty acres to the depth ofeight feet, and
is .collected froiti a number of springs, at a
heavy expense. The water is conveyed from
the reservoir to the river in aqiiedncts, al'i'L.rd-

supported by open pillars. On the suniuiii,

eolotired boat, be was not a ‘whit behind the
‘ ferry-man of’I‘artarus. The ‘vessel wasoval,
just long enough for a person to recline at full
length, and of sufficient breadth for two to lie
abreast. It was filled with straw, to make an
easy and clean bed. ,
“ Onward was the word ; and following the
direction ofour guide, we both ‘enibarkedi '3"
iirg u'p‘on otir backs, to enable us to pass be-
neath the roof, which descend‘s close to the
water‘. The boy planted liimselfin the prow,
and the little girl in the stern; and thus fitted
‘ out we eouimenced the voyage over the Styx,
each holding his candle in his hand. Our
young ferrymarr pushed the boat along with
his liahds, by ptitliiig them against tlieroof.-—
The scene would have been ludicrous enough
to a spectator. Our lights bttrned blue, atid
gave a ghastly lrtie to the countenance.
“ On debarking for the first time beyond
the stygi-ati waters, we soon arrived at a spa-
cious cavern 2.'iO feet long, 1200 wide,and 1920
high. The rocks around are rugged, and the
floor is covered with loose fragnients, broken
froni the walls and roof by sotiie great cori-
vulsion of nature. On the right hand of the
subterranean passage is a lofty gallery, called
the throne Q/'P.’ttto. His godsliip was not
seated on it ; although a rirore stately one,
and surrounded with more horrors. cannot be
well imagined. Otir junior guide, with the

“ Passing ‘ Roger Rain’s house,’ so called
from the constant percolation of the water
through the roof, we descended by a flight of
grotesque steps for the distance of 150 feet,in -
to the ' Devil’s Cellar,’—-beyond which is the
halfway lronse-an abode as inhospitable, as
ltlie leaky rnansion, wbicli bagl just been left
behind. Here the stream, which issues from
the irioutli of the cavern, becomes visible,
babbling along the rocks, and its niuminr
hrealting the dreary silence of the aliy,-‘s.—
Protreleding beneath three bold and well turn-
ed arches, we caliie to a station called ‘ Toni
ofLiricoln,’ and soon after reaclied the ex-
tremity ofthe cave,’ at the distance of2250
feet from its r'iio‘ti'lli.
“ It now remained to retrace our footsteps,
pausing at every ttfrn, to ex-.ir'i‘iiri'e the struc-
ttire ofthe roclts,,,and the stalactites pendent
from the roof. Tli'_e forriiationis entirely of

ofa slight affection in r'espi'ratio'n‘, which was
not experieiiced by myself. A safe voyage
across the lake, and the return to a region of
light, afforded us not less pleasure than the
novelties of this" Cininieriau realm. On e-
merging from‘ the cave,‘ the first glance at the

PYROLIGNEOUS ACID.
Mn. EDi'roR——ff you judge the following
rt-niarks to be ofsuflicicrit irnportauce to merit
a place in your paper,’ yoti will please to give
lllttllrall insertiorr. 'I‘lie writer professes to
have had sortie acquaintance with this article,
both with regard to its manufacture and its
use. It will not, however, his so inucli his ob-
ject to satisfy the chetnical inquirer, as to state
such facts concerning it as are of a practical
lltllllre. .. ‘ _
Ifa piece ofcold iron be held for a few
uronients in a strearii of smoke, it becomes
covered with iiiuisture. It is couiuion for the
New-England farmer to britrg in his axe in a
cold winter’s morning, to take théfrost out, as
he terms it. He holds it directly in the blaze
and smoke of.ltis fire, and in a short time it
~oecomes covered with small drops ofa brorvn
liquid. 'I'liis liquid, instead of coming otrt of
the axe, as he may perhaps suppose, is noth-
"rug less than the iiiiptii'ep_i/ioligriieous act'cl.-—-
Isay impure, because it is rrirxedwitti tar,
gum, charcoal, &Lc., and it is owing to these
impurities that itfltas a brown colour. Suiol.-e
consists in part of Pyroligueous acid, in a state
of vaponr,and this liquid is collected upon
the axe for the simple _reason that the axe is
Lcoolenougb to condense it. ’ So fast as we
cessive portions of sniolte come in Contact

Pietltiioiit, which belongs to the king of Sar-‘ti
dinia, begins at the northern extremity of the
stage, we came to 3' stygian Latte, boat and with the trite, this ‘part is dbposited t_i’ii'til‘ the
axe. becomes too warm to condense it.’
Here then‘ we have a simple illustration of
the whole ‘theory of smoking meat. We place‘
a liam-in a smoke lfonse, and build a fire un-
der it-, and coutiiiue.tliis severaludagys, in order
that we may get sbmé q/'_tht's nilotsttire lb settle
‘on the ham until penetriite it. We get attlre
sainetime the gummy, !aI‘|'Y-mallet; which
gives the sooty color, and the ltn'plt:E_l38nt taste‘
to the outside ofa liam. It iiirrst 'e__ obvious
to every one, that the same effect would lie
produced on tlie.meat, by ‘simply batlrrirg it
over with the itiilpure acid, Brit tlie_r_e is a
way in which these iiiiptirities are all retrieved
fPorii the acid, and it is rendered almost col-
orless as water ; retaining at the same time its
smoky taste, and its antiseptic property. In
‘the opinion ofuiany, the flavour ofliams pre-
pared with tliepunficd acid, is superior to that
given in the coririnoir mode of smoking. 'l'o
say the least, it is fully equal-
The acid may be used in the manner here
mentioned, by bathing the meat with ll: 0" it
may be mixed with the pickle which is PM 10
the meat. In either case the quantity of acid
wanted will be about the same,-one quarttn
150 or 200 pounds of meat, according to the
different tastes of different persons.
\Vhen the riiode by bathing is adopted, the
acid should be applied after the meat has been
suitably salted, audit will be necessary to al-
low a few hours between each bathing for the
acid to penetrate. This bathing ruay be per-
formed by means ofa brush, a bit of mg. 0|’ b
iiuinersing the meat in the acid. In this last
nientioned mode, ifa piece be suffered to re-
maiti a very short time in the acid, (longer or
shorter according to its size, the Whole OPE?-
tition may be performed at once. When dif-
ferent batliings are applied,a ham of 20 lbs.
may require bathing three or four times. It
is iurrirziterial whether this he done before the
ham becoriies dried or afterwards, and it can
at any tirrie be repeated. When the acid is
applied in this mode, it penetrates the meat in
the satire manner, and for the same reason,
that it penetrates it when applied in the com-
mon process qfsinokirtg.
When the mode by putting it in the pickle
is preferred, it will be necessary that the meat
should remain in that situation three or four
weeks,:ifter which, I consider it best that it
should be taken out and hung up in some
convenient place to dry. This drying can be
effected without" any trouble, and I tliitik it
best for two reasons. One is, that when dried
it coolcsiiiore naturally tlian wlieti' filled vtitli
moisture. , The other is, that it is not to be
expected that a large ham can be long pre-
served iiia weak brine.‘ . _
With regard to the 'pi‘éservation oftneat
tliro’ the suinirier, I consider it safest to sup-
pose that liafiis, lstc. prepared with the acid
will require the same atterition a's‘ tliose smok
ed in the common’ way, I have, however-.
kept Iiai'iis the summer past, with very little
trouble in the open air, in acliiatnber, by bath-
ing therir over two or three‘ times witli acid.
The antiseptic quality ol‘th;i’s su'bs‘taii_ce is
rernarkable. On the 8th‘ of April last, I tool;
a thick piece ofveal lfrrsli)’ from a bind quar-
ter, weighing two pounds ; I iurinersed it in
the purified acid for five minutes; aftér__wliiclr
leiiclosed it in a net, and lrtrrig it up in‘ a
back room, exposed as riiticli as might be to
fl'ies.‘. It has never exhibited any signs of po-
trefaction, and is now perfectly fresh and
sweet‘. It indicates to the smell and taste,that
it is tiery strongly impregnated with smoke.
The application oft'li.i's' acid to any kind of
meat is proper in all those cases wlie-re smoke
is req-iired.—'-Conn. Courant qf 0cL 3

tainty, says the same coiiiuioner, which fills

assertions be illustrated by references to many

PROVIDENCE scfrs LIKE A root.
This was the serious opinion ofTotn Trott,
a native of Dorchester, Mass. Totir was not
overstnclted with brains ; brit he had as niucli
pride and vanity as his betters. He had been
waiting one spring for a suit of new clothes,
to wear to meeting’. After many disappoint-
ments, the clothes were at last made: the day
was bright and fair, and Toni set otit in his
new dress for meeting. happy as a king. Brit
unfortunately they had forgotten to sponge
the cloth ; it rained ; the new coat was spoil-
ed 3 and Tom went home in great wratli.——
That ever it should rain ! and rain on Suri-
day! l and rain on Toni’s new clothes ll! His
old grandtiiother, who was a piotis woman,
endeavored to console him. “It is Providetice,
Tominy—-Providence has done it--you otiglit
not to be in a passion!” “Halt, granny,”
says be, “you may talk of your Providence:
but for my part, I think Providence acts like a
fool !” Thus it is with us all. When the
streams of prosperity pour in upon us.we mis-
t«llte.gladness for gratitude-,and are ready with
our lips at least, to cotnmeiid the goodness of
God. But let the scene be reversed; let the
‘Willie ne_Stle when we look for the rose; let
our favorite pursuits be crossed, or otir pride
disappointed ; and otir hearts fret against the
Lord. Then we begin to suspect, with Tom
Trott, that Providence acts like afool !
