In Bavaria the air-dri. h turfkis divided and pressed at BULh a temp: i- ature that partial carbonisation takes plum, whichl leving tar, the latter acts as a power- ful cement. Dr. Cameron referred to Mi. Alloway’s method of treating peat, whicl was simple and cheap and very tffer-tive. Ht. also rrferred to Mr. Box‘s method, which he hoped would be adopted generally 1h Ireland, as it was sure ti prove it grew success. Mr. Box tears the peat to pieces by means of a pmveiful d.sintegrat0r, resemâ€" bling the well-known one invented by Can The peat is non washed, so as to separai most perfectly the decomposed or coal-lin portion from the more recent or w<t~od-lls part.

Among the samples 0! tun shown there were some very dense ones,whic| the Dr. had analysed for M1. Downing,solicil- or, 0| I‘ippt rary,who had tormid a company to work a valuable bug in that county. In conclusion, Dr. Cain-run passed a. high eulo- g.um on Alderman Purdon for the grew efforts which he was making to utilise the bogs of Ireland, The lccture was listened to with the livu liest inmrest.

Fowls, like everything else, mum: die some Lime; and, again like everything else, it can but seldom happen that the cause oi death will be mere old age. A certain proportion of loss, therefore, is not necessarily a. proof of mismuimgement, but is rather [art of the economy of the great oupriintendem of the universe, by which ermtures no ‘longer really capable of main- taiiniog the Vigor of the species are taken mom a world in which they are 01 no further' use.

It 18 cases oi this nature, in which some extra trial of Weather or circumstances has only developed lament weakness, issuing or not, as the case may be, in any well-marked complaint, which are difljcult or even impossible of cure.‘ There are, however, many cases in which exposure or other active cause has occasioned acute disease in the lm st healthy birds, presenting plainly- marked symptoms, the triatmeut of which is Wt'll understood. Such are the mostly amenable 1.0 judicious treatment, and fowls ot priceless value may thus be sawed. which otherwise must be lost to the amateur. Be- tween the small group oi such plainly- murde diseasesâ€"as roupâ€"and the many instanr‘es in which to all present knowledge the symptoms are utterly obscure, and re- covery must be left to the natural powers of the bird, aided by such nursmg and rugimen as applar best, is a. large class 01 cases in which partial ground tor guidance is alforded by some one or more symptoms of a marked character. In these also treatment may be adopted wnh hope it the affection be uta sudden or acute character; but chronic symptoms usually betray constitutional Weakn‘VSs, and are not only diflioult to dual mm, but wan in’tue interest of [he yard it is often better to let them run their natural course, or to anticipate therr r fleet by u. mer- citul exec'utiou.â€"- Wrzght’s Illustrated Book Qf Poultry. ‘7‘ I declare, wife,†said be, “it‘s curious,but really the pup 'on’t say.†Nvarly all poultry distases are caused by Htlml‘ Wl‘t' want of cleanliness, or bad feed- ing; in other words, by, neglect. somewhere IL is uasier to guzud against this than to cure nirds when thcy are ill, which is almost al- ways a. very unsatisfactory speculation. The chief obstacle is that, being covered With feathers, there are fvw symptoms to observe; and as the poor dumb things cannot tell what is the matter with them, we om n have to prescrib Vcl’y much in the dark.

PROCEEDINGS DEF ‘RE THE BRITISH ARCII/EOLOGI- CAL EL‘CIETYâ€"ASSYRIAN TABLETS TRANSLATED‘ Mr. George Smith at the Blitish Museum la ely I‘t ad a paper before the Briiisn Arch~ mological Soviety on a cuneilorm inscription recc ly discovered by him in the Museum coiiiaining an account of the D luge. Ml. Smith said he had recently (won examining the division comprising the mythological and mythical tablets, and lrum that section be obtained a number of tablets givmg a curious series of legends and including a copy of the story 01 the flood. On UlSUUVei- ing these documents, which were much mutilittd, he searchid over all the collec- tions of fragywnls of inseriptions, consisting of several thousands of smalltr pieces, and ultimately recovertd tighty fragments of thUi-c legends; by the aid 01 which he was enabled to restore nearly all the text ot the (leseription of the .ood, and considelable pOl'tlons ot the Other legends. These tablets wt re originally at least 12 in number, forming one story or Set of legends, the account ofihe flood being on the eleventh tablet. Of tht inseriplion describing the flood, there were fragments of three coiies containing dupli at texts ; these copies be- long to the time of Assurbanipul, or about 660 yea's before the Ulll‘lxtldfl era, and they were lound in the library of that monarch in the palace at NineVeh. The original text was very ancient, as its original composition could not be placed later than the seven. teenth century, before the Christian era, and it was, in all likelihood, very much older. It belonged to the time ol a monarch whoSe name, written in monograms, Mr. Smith was unable to had phonetically, and, therefore. called him by the value of the signs of his nalne lZl ubar, and he probably lived in the epoch immediately followng the flood. The tablets gaVe an account of his history and exploits, and now one, the eleventh and most importint of all, it up- pear-ed that he heard of a patriarch, Sisu, who had attained immortality without death, and he sought him to learn the secret. Sisit, on being asked how he became immortal, relates the story of the flood. The transla- tion is very imperlect, owing to portions ol the tablet being broken. After telling of the building 0« the ship by command of the gUde’ Sisii goes on: “Come right up to the stove, policeman Excuse me a moment"! Policeman Badger paltuok.

I sent forth a swallow. The swallow went, it searched and a. resting-place it did not ï¬nd, and it returned. I sent a raven, and it left. The raVen went, and the corpses on the wat- ers it saw, and it did eat, it swam and wonâ€" dered away, and did not return. I Sent the animals forth to the four winds. I poured out a libation. I bunt an altar on the peak or the mountain, by seven herbs I cut, at the bottom of them I placed reeds, pines and simgnr. The gods collected at its burning, the gods collected at its good burning, the gods, like sunbeams, over the sacriï¬ce gathered. From of old also, the great God, in his course, the great brightness of Ann had created: when the glory of these gods, as of Ukni stone, on ‘my countenance I could not endure; in those days I prayed that for ever I might not endure. May the gods come to my altar; may Bel not come to my altar, for he did not consider and had made 1. tempest, and my people he had consigned to the deep from of old, also Bel in his course saw the shipI and went Bel with anger ï¬led to the gods and spirits ; let not any one come out alive, let not a man be saved from the deep. Nlnip his mouth opened and spake, and said to the warrior Bel, “ Who then will be saved ‘2 †Hen the words In derstood, and Hen knew all things.

When his jurlgmant was accomplished, Bel Went up It) the midst of the ship; he took my hand ' and brought me out, me he brought out, he caused me to bring my wife to my side, he puriï¬ed the country, he established in a covanant and took the people in the presence in the details Show that the inscripuon embodies a. distinct and independent tradition. In spite of a striking similarity in style, which shows itself in sev‘ vral places, the two narratives belong to to. 5'1in distinct peoples. The Biblical account is the version of an inland peopleâ€"the name of the ark in Genesis means a. che t or box, «no net 3. c4hip; there is no notice of the sea, or of lau zching, no pilots are spoken of, no navigaiton is mentioned. The inscription, on the other hand, belongs to a maritime pt'ople- the ark is called rt ship, the ship is launched into the sea, trial is made of it, and it is givm in charge of a pilot. Mr. Smith pointed out circumstances which suggest the question whether the Clmldean narrative it- selfmay not have been compiled irom two distinct and older accounts, and noted it as remarkaole that the oldrst traditions of the earl y Babylonians seem to center round the Persian Gulf. In conclusion, he remarked that this account of the deluge opened a. new ï¬eld of inquiry in the early part of the Bible history. The production of silver from the mines of Utah for the year 1871 is roughly estimated at $5,000,000, and a writer in the Omaha. [Jerald przdicts that the total ï¬eld for 1872 Will reach double that amount. It is difï¬cult, however, to arrive at an accurate estimate of the pro\ nation in this 'l‘eiriiory, as the ship- ments are made, some of them in reï¬ned silver bullion, others in base bullion of vary- ing value, and others sti l in ores of Widely diil'erent degrees of ï¬neness. It is believed, though, that the Little Cottonwood district ulyue has yielded more than $6,000,000 the present year. There are seven mines there, besides t'ie Emma, yielding more than $500,- 000 each, some reaching as high as $1,400,- 000. Prof. Clayton of Nevada, a competent au- thority, estimates that the silver product of that State for 1872 will be from 30 to 33 per cent, greater than last year, He belieVes tne Comstoek lode will this year yield not less than $6,000,000. This includes, of course, all the bullion from that lode, a pro- p ition, greater or less, being gold. The Raymond and Ely mine in the l’ioche dis- trict of Nevada is the most productive silver mine known except the Crown Point mine on the Comstoek lode. Its vield this year expected to exceed $4,000,000. This mine was stocked and sold in San Francisco for $3,000,000, and has paid Seven per cent. per month on its stock ever since the day of its sale. Mr. Raymond, one of its discoverers, holds one million dollars in its stock, on which he receives $70,000 monthly. His dividends for the last tWelve months have amounted to $840,000 in gold. â€"Now that sleighing is good and Vehicles move easily, the usual number of runaway accidents have to be recorded.
