Millet stateB that pieces of linen, treated for 72 hours with an oak bark liquor at 160 degrees, ana stretcnea on frames, remain ed unaltered in a damp cellar for ten years white untanned linen in the same place and for the same time, had entirely rotted. It was further shown that linen, which had begun to molder, might be preserved from further change by being tanned. It seems to be only necessary tnat the articles should be kept two or three days in a warm solution of tan. Awnings may be treated in this manner with either oak bark or sumac both will answer.

This will afford a useful hint to sail oloth manufac nrers. Hf The New Poet. Gerald Massey, the young English poet, is a factory operative. At the age of eight he commenced work in a silk factory, at 9d a week. His father was a poor cfnal boatman earning the wages of ten shillings a week.

From this social position, the young poet has struggled, until his fame as a writer is fast becoming familiar to the intelligent minds of the old and new world. Will says it was his fortune when in London frequently to meet 'poor Tom at a house of a friend, and on such occasions he was im pressed with the melancholy characteristics of the man indeed the conviction was Dut too palpable that it was sad Hood writing for a A PIR6T rate Hotel with all the requisite accommodations, and making up 6 BEDS, lie, situated In one of thebrstand most populous neigh borhood in New York, is now TO LET and the fUR.NI TURE, FIXTURES, Stc.forSsleon easy term.

usey nave neee suosisung. uunu their stay they became acquainted, ot course with a number 6f whom they traded horses, fcc, About three weeks since, Wm. White, a farmer, residing some two miles from Saratoga, was called on by two men of the party who eventually, as his story goes, succeeded in making a horse trade with him. He says that when they came into the house he was engaged counting nine hundred dollars in bills, which had just procured for some purpose, and without much reflection, placed it on their entrance back into the drawer, which he closed and locked. The Gypsies did not appear to notice it, but made the trade and started off.

White not having immediate use for the money, it remained as he suDDOBed in the drawer, but on look ing for it a few days after, it was gone. Both himBelf and wife had seen it repeatedly since the above visit, and where, how or by whom it was taken was mysterious, until a neighbors informed them that on the last morning on which White had seen the money, one of the Gypseymen was noticed going towards his Douse. This At once recalled the fact of the Gypsies coming in and seeing him count and place it away, ana a prompt visit to tneir camp, and its desertion, was pretty conclusive as to the fact that they were the robbers. White started off at once in pursuit, traversing the country without success. Meantime, and on last Friday evenine.

Offioer Bravton. on the arrival of the train from the West was informed of the rob bery and the suspicions, and also that three nersons resembline GvDBies were on the oarB. He at once took a survey, and fouhd a man and two women whom ne ioey were taken to the Station House and searcnett, ana but $47 found on them. The women were let go, and the man detained. On Saturday White arrived in town, and at once recognized the man who gave his name as JNoan tsosweu, as one oi the fivnnies.

and the one who made the horse trade with him. was examtned and sent hack to Saratoga on Saturday in charge ot an omcer. Boswell, of course, asserted his innocence, hat in an nntrarded moment threatened to expose White, if he should prosecute the matter, intima ncr that wnite'B laiin in iucaui.tti.iuuo buu fnrt.nnf tellinc caused the loss of the money. White's neighbors aav mat naviue lauu iu Gypsey revelations, he received their visits, and was told that in a certain place in or near his farm was a great treasure; that to secure it, aud make all the charms act effectually, he was to place nine hundred dollars in a certain drawer. in a certain stand, where it was to remain un watched and unseen by him, for a certain time, all the "certainB" being at the Gipsey's dictation.

Nine hundred dollars being a small investment for as many or more thousands, was deposited accordingly, and of course came up missing on the eventful day that was to make a fortune. Thus the charm was spoilt and the money taken. This is what say; White's story above is different. Three hundred dollars reward was offered for the arrest of the robbers and the recovery of the money. We hope he may get it.

Albany Ex press. Crumbs for tbe Curious. Robbing a Hen Roost. "Jeems Lewkas," oi Orange county, writes to the Alexandria Gazette that some dishonest rogue has robbed his hen roost. He closes his account of the fowl tran saction as follows In the morning we found out that sum feller had bin kommittin a salt on Gran mar's poeltry and several other hens.

Interesting Discovery.

We learn from a friend, that a tew days since the tuBks of a Mastodon of enormous size were discovered protruding from the inclined aide of a marshy declivity a few miles from tne city ot rongnKeepsie. Measures were immediately takeD to excavate the place and exhume the skeleton. We are mtorm ed that the work thus fir has been remarkably successful, aDd the condition of the skeleton sucn as to promise the security of the most perfect sDecimen of the Mastodon ever found. The location is extremely favorable. The excavation which is prosecuted under the direction of Prof.

Morse, the discoverer of Magnetic Telegraph, who resides at Ponghkeepsie, has succeeded as tar as the head and shoulders of the mammoth. The bones are partly petrefied, as far as tho exhumation has extended, and this promises the ecovery of an entire skeleton in a more perfect Ijtate than yet discovered. If our information is orrect and it emanates from an entirely res onsible scnico an object of great interest will be added to the science and study of Natural History. ilbany Register. Perpetual Moonlight.

A young lady, the daughter of a teacher in one of the New York city high schools, went on a visit to the eastern end of Maine; and, in common with the denizens of large cities, she was often comparing things about her with those she had left at home Everything in New York was bo very far superior to erery thing in the little town of that she quite exhibited her superiority in enlightening her friends as to the elegances of metropolitan life. Houses and horses, tables and tea spoons, were all upon a different plan in New York; and one evening, at a social party, Bhe expressed her dissatisfaction with the performances of the moon' at declaring that there had been no moonlight now for a week, while in New York the moon shone brightly every night! We had trie story from two ladies present on the ocoasion women of a high order of integrity and intelligence who assured us that this young lady from the city of perpetual moonlight was not only dressed in the height ef fashion, bat had finished her education" in Gotham. Mrs. Swisshelm Imperial Gratitude. The St.

Louis Intelligencer says that a gentleman of that city has recently received a present of coffee and sugar from Faustm Emperor of St. Domingo. The ormtleman was formerly a resident of St.Domin crn. and owned a number of slaves, among whom was his Majesty Faustin who has, it seems, not forgotten his old master.

California Funeral SERMON. Military funerals are managed rather queerly in California. After hurrying the defunct, the band comes back and serenades the widow.

Complimentary. The London Times, speaking of a recent military trial in that city, says An English barrack seems to be a something between a brothel and? a cockpit, as cockpits were a hlf a oentury ago." r. in to way to North Second street. The proprietor the house named Peter Rohr, asked him in and stated that there was a man going in that direction, and would accompany him. Mr.

Quinn went in and took a seat, when Rohr snatohed watch, a valuable gold one, from his pocket, handed it to bis wife, and drove Mr. Quinn, with threats, out of the house. The latter meeting with an officer, informed him ot the affair, and proceeded with him to the house. Rohr made anm t.hrflataninir demons 'rations towards the officer, as also did his son, when the assistance of Captain Mullens and two other cmcers being procured, they took Rohr into custody, together with his wile and son. Yesterday morning they were brought up for examination, when the above facts were substantiated.

A man giving niu name as George Hess, who was in the house at the time, but in another room, volunteered his testimony on behalf of the accused, when from his own admission, he waB arrested as an accessory, and the whole of the parties recommitted to the cells. A search warrant was issued for the premises of RonR, and also the residence of Bess. Yesterday morning, Coroner Hanford was summoned to hold an inqueBt on the body of a woman named Mary Mally, in Noonan's Row, 6th street, between South 1st and South 2nd who died on Monday of a loathsome disorder. A woman called upon to testify, refused to take the oath, and was committed to the cell to learn better. A yonng man in the employ of Henry Knowl.

Knowlton marked several pieces of silver coin, one ol which was found in accused, Henry Sturton's trunk. He waB committed lor examination to day. An "Anti Coal Duty Paying League" is forming in Boston, in imitation of the" Anti Corn Law League, which pcrfoiuitU so effectual a service for the people of Great Britain, abrogating the monopoly of grain and giving the people cheap bread." The Pottsville Miners' Journal says The causes of the high price of coal are now pretty generally understood in the East, and the consumers are mostly satisfied that prices cannot come down any this season, but may advance and are holding back no longer. Some turned their attention to Nova Scotia, but found that coal is more difficult to obtain there than here; and the prices in Boston are higher for the foreign Bituminous than lor the domestic Anthracite.

It is really amusing to read some of the comments ol the papers on the high price of coal, which has not advanced in a greater ratio than flour, iron, produce of all kinds, The New York Herald seys a large number of the heavy dealers in the Eastern States, taking advantage of the new treaty, have engaged the Pictou coal instead of the Anthracite. The Pictou coal im ported iuto this country, which exceeds every year 100,000 tons, is principally consumed in the New England States, ana tne aeaiers nave always kept fictou coal lor sale Dut we ieei Borry to intorm the editor of the New York Her ald, tnat Jriciou coat is ju.bc as Hcarue as ouuin cite that all the coal they can produce lor two months ahead, will not load the vessels now waiting for it.
