ACADEMIE DE MEDICINE, PAKIS.—Extract of an official Report at a meeting, April 1, 1851. The Voltaic Chains of Mr Pulvermacher are really a most wonderful apparatus. The committee beg to propose to the Academy to address their thanks to Mr Pulvermacher for his most interesting communication. Adopted.— Bulletin de 1' Academie, Tome xvi. No. 13. SUCCESSIVE IMPROVEMENTS have led to the following testimonial by the elite of the Medical Profession in the metropolis. Such as Sir C. Locock, M D., Bart., Sir J. R. Martin, Bart., C.B., F.R.C.S., &c. Dr. J. PEREIRA, F.R.S., F.L.S., in his "Materia Medica," page 53. 1854. Fourth edition :— The application of the Voltaic circuit has ùeen largely Jirescribed, and has become a popular remedy in the form of Pulvermacber's Galvanic Chains. They should he worn so as to encircle the part affected, in cases of Rheumatism, Paralysis, &c. They are regarded by practitioners as a valuable and convenient means of applying the continuous Voltaic current. THE "LANCET," NO. 1, Vol. II., 1856:— ThIs ingenious apparatu3 of .l\I1' Pulvermacher hab now stood the test for some years. It may be used by the medical attendant, or by the patient himself and the operator can now diffuse the galvanic influence over an extensive surface, or concentrate it on a single point. In these days of medico-galvanic quackery it is a relief to observe the very plain and straightforward manner in which Mr Pulvermacher's apparatus is recommended to the pro- fession. CAUTION. — PULVERMACHER'S VOLTAIC Ar- PLIANCES have, by their unparalled curative success, incited envious speculators—unable, as they are, to infringe his patent—to an absurd competition with articles falsely repre- sented as Electrical; therefore observe that no Galvanic or Voltaic Bands or lielts can be genuine unless bearing the fae simile of J. L. PTTLVERMACKEH'S signatureon the box. Scientific extracts and a selection of the daily increasing number oftestimonials, together with price list, are em- bodied in pamphlet.

BOROUGH MAGISTRATES' COURT.
BOROUGH MAGISTRATES' COURT. Wednesday, February 11. Before Philip Williams, Esq. (mayor.) DRUNK AND DISORDERLY. John Warrington, painter, was charged with having been drunk and disorderly. P.S. Evans said that on the previous afternoon defendant was in Portland-street. A great crowd was round him and be was behaving in a very dis- orderly manner. He was drunk. A policeman not hold of him, but he extricated himself and ran away. Witness secured him, and with assistance, took him to the lock-op. Defendant said he was very sorry. He was excited because the crowd rushed at him for carry- ing a red paper. He was engaged by one of the election committees. David Davies, mariner, was also charged with having been drunk and disorderly. P S. Evans said that the defendant was in a great crowd outside the lock-up on the previous night. He used very bad language, and was excited and drunk. He refused to give his name, and was locked up. D fendant denied the charge. Supt. Lloyd corroborated P.S. Evans, and said that as it was election time be would not press the charges against the defendants. The Mayor said he did not think that, because it was election time, the defendants should be excused. There was plenty of work for young men to do without getting drunk. Fined 5s. each, including costs.
THE SALMON SEASON OF 1873.,
THE SALMON SEASON OF 1873. The Standard, in an article upon the salmon season, of last year, says:—"Though the legisla- tion for the protection and improvement of our salmon fiisheries has been of a very piecemeal character, still their increased value abundantly shows that it has effected some substantial good. Their improvement has been progressive from year to year, but in no season has it been so marked as in that of 1873 and there can be little doubt but that when all the reports of the inspectors of the salmon fisheries come to hand in the spring they will afford a source of congratulation to proprietors, lessees, and to the community in general, which is greatly interested in a large and cheap supply of a favourite article of food. But those interested in salmon fishing, whether as sportsmen or as engaged in supplying the mar- kets for pecuniary gain, are probably more occupied with the prospects of the present season, than with the details of the past. The reports from the rivers in the United Kingdom which have already been opened are most satisfactory, and some splendid fish have already been sold in the London market. The working of salmon acts can only be judged of after some years of experience. The acts of 1861 and 1865 have effected some good; the recent act of last session, notwithstanding its hurried passage through Parliament, will probably effect more. But it must not for a moment be supposed that these acts will be sufficient to carry out all that is needed. Sportsmen, or rod and line anglers, to whom we are mainly indebted for what has already been done towards the improvement of our salmon fisheries, are thankful for small mercies, but they by no means consider they have arrived at a desirable stage of finality in salmon legislation. Their motto is not "rest and be thankful on the contrary, they still feel that they have much to agitate for. The poisoning of rivers by sewagp, mines, and manufactories, and the rights (or wrongs) of weir owners are still to be combated. There are many questions also still to be settled, such as those of "fixed engines" at the mouths of rivers, a "variable close season," and the enlargement of the privileges of rod and line fishermen. The Royal Commissioners of I860, and since thpn Parliament, have shown a commendable disposition to listen to legitimate grievances, and to endeavour to develope our salmon fisheries. There is a good hope, therefore, that still further improvements will he made and even though we may never again have to arrange with apprentices or domestic servants not to give them salmon more than three days a week, we may still expect that in the course of a few years the supply of this excel- lent and nutritious fish may be so abundant that it will no longer be a luxury for the rich, but within the reach of the majority of the poorer classes.
4 ELECTION PETITIONS.
4 ELECTION PETITIONS. Arising out of the present General Elections, it is expected that a number of election petitions will be filed within the time prescribed by the Parlia- mentary Elections Act which was passed in the year 1868, the number filed in that year was 69, and five in the following year. By the Ballot Act, which has now been tested by a General Election, the offence of personatiou" can be added to the charges of bribery, treating, and undue influence. The mode of procedure is by filing a petition in the Rule Office of the Court of Common Pleas, con- taining the allegations charged. A seat can be claimed or not on the part of an unsuecessful can- didate. Before a petition is at issue a recognizance in a sum of 1,000Z. must be lodged, or a sum to that amount deposited in the Bank of England. The next proceeding is to appoint the trial, after which the silling member can obtain particulars" of the offences alleged, and within a few days of the trial the names can be procured of the parties implicated in the bribery, &c. The Ballot Act was passed on the 18th of July, 1872 it is to con- tinue in force until the 31st of December, 1880, and no longer, unless Parliament otherwise determine. Several statutes were repealed during the opera- tion of the Act. It was proposed to make it an offence to induce an elector to disclose for whom be voted, but the provision was struck out. In the present election "secrecy" was not observed, and cards were forwarded on behalf of candidates and returned after voting. It will be for consideration in the new Parliament whether amendments are not needed in the statute. By the 24th section of the Ballot Act (35 and 36 Vie. cap. 33) it is pro- vided that if on the trial of any election petition any candidate is found by the Judge, by himself or his agents, to have been guilty of personation, or to have aided or procured such personation, at an election, such candidate shall be incapable of sitiing in Parliament, for a county or borough during the Parliament then in existence and by the following section, ou a petition claiming the sear, if it is proved that the candidate or his agents have been guilty of bribery, treating, or undue influence, there shall, on a scrutiny of the number of votes, be struck off from the number of votes appearing to have been given to such candidate one vote for every person who voted at such election and is proved to have been so bribed, treated, unduly inflnenced, or retained or employed for reward. Al eady notices of Election Petitions have been given, but up to the present time not one has been filed. A petition must be lodged within a specified period after each election. The Election Petition judges for the current year are Mr Justice Mellor, Mr Justice Grove, and Baron Bramwell.

The man that "sticks" to his business The drummer. A Terra Haute editor, who speaks with the air of a man who has discovered a new fact by experience says that tho way to prevent bleeding at the nose is to keep your nose out of other people's business. It often happens that they are the best people whose characters have been most injured by slander, as we often find that to be the sweetest fruit which the birds have been pecking at. Many of the men whom we calmly set down as failures may have been doing as much as those who have made ten times as much noise in the world. A great deal of the best work m the world is anonymous if we do not confine the term to writing. WiT IN THE PULPIT—The minister of Colvend having, under some unaccountable delusion, left his family and his parish for some time, and no trace of him being found, the presbytery agreed to supply the pulpit temporarily, in the expectation that he would soon appear. The first minister appointed to preach iu Colvend church was Dr Muirhead, who, on doing so, chose his text Exodus xxxii. 1, "As for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egynt, we wot not what is become of him." Mr Kennedy, the minister of Terregles, was, like Zaccheus of old, exceedingly little in stature, but, in accordance with the law of compensation, he married a lady of unusual proportions for her sex, and by name Grace. Dr Muirhead was asked to preach in Terregles on the Sunday after the married pair returned from their marriage tour, a custom known by the name of kirking the young folk." The whole parishioners turned out on'the occasion to see the young mistress of the manse. Dr Muirhead proceeded with the service, and gave out for text, Ephesians iii. 8, "Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this great grace given." It may be mentioned, however, that the better to suit the case, he interpolated the epithet great in reading the text.

RURAL SANITARY AUTHORITY.…
RURAL SANITARY AUTHORITY. I! A meeting of the Aberystwyth Rural Sanitary Authority of the Aberystwyth Union was held at the Town-hall on Monday last; prese t-H. C. Fryer, Esq. (in the chair); Mess.s John Morgan, and Lewis Williams; with Mr Morris Jones, I medical officer of health Mr W. H. Davies, in- spector of nuisances and Mr D. Jones, assistant clerk. The minutes of the last meeting having been read and confirmed, The Chnirman asked whether any communica- tion bad been received from the trustees of th^ Wesleyan Chanel, Tre'rddol, upon whom notice had been served to remove the privy they had built over the PUtillg«yn brook ? A negative reply was given. The Chairman observed that the trustees re- quired an extension of time, as they intended to build other premises as well. The notice served upon them required them to remove the privy within seven days. They were perfectly willing to do everything required of them but they consi- dered that seven days was too short a time in which to build a new house. fie thought the committee might grant their reques'. It was agreed to extend the time of the notice. The Inspector reported that notice had been served upon the owners of the sixteen cottages at Ynyslas. He produced a plan of the premises, and pointed out what was required to be done to make them in a fair sanitary condition. The committee agreed to extend the time of the notice till the next meeting. The Inspector again reported upon "an unin- habited house at Penrhyncoch, occupied by Joseph Jones. The meeting agreed to have a notice served, re- quiring the bouse to be repaired or the occupants to remove from it by the 25th March. The Chairman enquired whether any steps had been taken with regard to the house at Llanbadarn, where Thomas Hughes died, and on whom an in- quest was held last week. He had read the report of the inquest, and from Dr Harries's evidence, given at the inquest, it appeared that the house was almost if not quite uninhabitable. Dr Jones said that the greatest nuisance was to be found upstairs. The deceased had been brought down stairs and placed in a chair by the side of the fire, and he was not t.,ken upstairs again before he died. The occupants of that house slept huddled together. There was only one sleeping room in the bouse, and only one bedstead—a four-post one. He went to the house about two months ago, to see the deceased. It was a long while before he was allowed to go upstairs. The Chairman flow many slept in the room ? Dr Jones replied seven, the deceased, his wife, their two daughters and their children. One of the' daughters had, at that time, just been confined, and she rusherl out of the house with nothing on. He could not find her. The house was a good-size one but it was kept in a slovenly way. The house could easily be made tidy. The Chairman said that some steps ought to be taken in a case of that sort. The question was whether they were in position to deal with the house at all. It seemed a disgrace that such a state of things should exist in the district. He remembered the case being brought on at the board of guardians, and attention was called to it from the fact that the place was said to be nothing better than a house of ill fame, and therefore the guardians refused to give relief. He thought they did perfectly right. When people lived in the disgraceful state the deceased was in, it was kindness on the part of the guardians to offer them the house. The inspector was ordered to make a special examination of, and report upon, the house. The Inspector reported that 2S6 notices had been served; eleven had been served since the last board; twenty nuisances had been removed since the last meeting; total removed, 242; number of nui-auces remaining, 44. The meeting then separated.

FOREIGN VARIETIES. An undertaker's shop in Philadelphia recently bore the following cheering inscription, Gone for a d- ad man-back soon." A Peoria, letter-carrier, after walking nine miles and delivering the same letter to 137 men, none of whom would receive it, sat down on a fire-plug and wept. The letter was directed to Mr Smith. An obituary notice in a western paper contained the touching intelligence that the deceased "had accumulated a little money and ten children." A Titusville paper says :—" A mar, called at one of our shoe stores yesterday and vainly essayed to get on either numbers 11. 12, and 13 shoes. The storekeeper then suggested that he should put on a I thinner pair of stockings, and try on the box." The Washington papers are warmly commending Senator Sprague's habit of settling half a million dollars on each of his children at its birth. The custom is a beautiful one, and no family should be without it. A young lady recently sent a young man four quarts of nuts as a token of acknowledgment for having saved her from drowning. The New York Almanack says:—"Poor but dis- honest young boys fasten wrought nails to the end of strings, and harpoon sweet potatoes and apples frc-m the stores. This may be considered sport, but it is the first step in the downward road to Congress." A Wrmont newspaper announces that its minimum charge for a first class marriage notice will be fifteen pounds of dried apples. Notices with "poetry" cost twelve pounds of onions more. Great-grandtoother Peck died last week, aged one hundred and ten. She died once before when she was ninety-six, but just after she was laid out she seemed to remember somehow that she had forgotten to finish footing a stocking for her youngest boy, who was only seventy-tour years of age, so that she came to again and, as wintei* was coming, and so much knitting to be done, she concluded to keep on for twenty years, or so. She remembered very distinctly when General Washington got the cheque cashed that Gladstone gave for the Alabama business also remembers the laying of the Atlantic Cable when she was about five years old; about the time of the Battle of Bunker's Hill. I1 ROM GRAVE TO GAT —A paper publishes the following :W.tnted-To exchange a cemetery- monument for a piano." DISPOSAL OF ELEVEN WIDOWS BY LOT.-At Hollandtow-, in Winconsin, eleven widows were disposed of in marriage by lot. The Green Bay Advocate speaks to this effect:—It seems that there were living in Hollandtown eleven widows and twelve widowers. It was thought by society in that place that it would be economy to have them married, and it was at first proposed that eleven of the widowers should marry the disconsolate relics, but on further consideration it was decided that as there was one more widower than there were widowers, it would only be fair to dispose of the widows by lot. The deliberations of the committee lasted for one hour, during which time there was much commotion among the widows, and the widowers appeared restless and uneasy. With a view, therefore, of shortening the period of suspense, the names of all the widows," says the report, were placed at once in a box and likewise the names of the widowers." The drawing took place at five p.m. on Monday, the 8th ult. The twelfth widower showed unbecoming signs of joy at what he irrevently termed his escape." His mirth was of short duration, for the committee are now advertising far and near that if there are any widows in neigh- bouring towns who would like to take the remaining lot, application can be made to the president.

POLITICS AT GOGINAN.
POLITICS AT GOGINAN. To the Editor of the Aberystwyth Observer. • SIR,-Of. course, as so great a stir has been made in the British Isles in consequence of the Dissolution of the late Parliament, Goginan must rank amon the scenes of agitation, for, I am informed, a polit{¡,J meeting above all other meetings was held there L d, Saturday evening, when Mr Richards, jun., raise! the wind" by addressing his father's constituents. Against this I nlake no complaint whatever; but at the same time I do wish to complain of something that was done, or rather said, at that meeting. I a.!Jl credibly informed that a Dissenting minister residing within a hundred miles of Goginan, named Mr Mille or Miles, or a such-like cognomen, got up to enlighten the audience and in his address—if I can call it an address—mentioned the astounding fact that great- changes were needed in the political world. But mark- what changes the rev. gentleman thinks we need Alluding to the House of Lords, he endeavoured to make it out that that institution was an useless one and further, that the Lords Spiritual were best at home, seeing after spiritual matters there; and that if the Lords Temporal could not condescend to sit in the House of Lords they, too, had better remain at home. He then proceeded to speak of our beloved Queen and, with questionable loyalty, he remarked that he liked the little woman" very well, but if she wanted to be a lady she would retire—from the throne, I suppose he meant—and live upon her means. These are strange things to say on the part of a minister of the gospel; and I am sorry to say he does not stand alone in making wild assertions, not even in Wales, as, for instance, at a political meeting held a few days ago at Lampeter, a Rev Mr Morgan (Wesleyan) made the following irreverent observa- tions—" that Jesus Christ was a Liberal, as were also the angels that Christ was in favour of the Ballot, and denounced the Devil as the greatest Tory that ever existed." Once upon a time—in the good old days of its existence—Dissent was solely a religious body but it degenerated, and ultimately presented a. two-fold aspect, by holding up religion and politics on a. "neck-to-neck level;" and now, it appears to me, the Dissenters are outrunning the religious part of their profession, and grasping hold of politics only. However, if it is not exactly as I have stated, it has nearly come to that. I am quite satisfied that there is no need for Dissenters—especially those of them who are ministers—to dabble with politics so much as they do. I have often heard it affirmed by persons holding opposite religious views, that the State Church is bigoted and tyrannical; but, from close observation, I am convinced that there is more bigotry on the side of Dissent than there is, and ever was, on that of the State Church. And I am also fully persuaded that, if allowed to have its sway, Dissent would wedge itself into the axis upon which the State Church now rests; and were this ever to happen, how much better would the country and the people be for such a change ? The platform of the reigning church is broad enough for all Christians to worship within its pale, and the sooner Dissenters cease to attack it the better will it be for them. The country has, during the present election, exhibited a manifest determination to uphold the National Church; and I fear the efforts of the Goginan Dis- senting minister, and others who share with him the like strange views, will prove a mountainous impedi- ment to the cause they have unwarily and unwisely espoused.—I am. &c.

A. H. The Siamese Boys sailed on Friday for London. While they were in Philadelphia, a person squeezed the hand of Chien so hard as to hurt him. He drew his other hand, and gave the squeezer such a slap on the cheek as to stagger him. The man went to a magistrate and applied for a warrant for the assault and battery. I will grant you a warrant,' said the magistrate, for Chien, but you must not on that warrant arrest Teng; if you do, you will subject yourself to a prosecution for false prosecution.' The prosecution was abandoned."
THE SEA.
THE SEA. Oh, the broad blue sea is the home of the free, The realm of the true and brave Where we fearless ride on the foaming tide Or dash o'er the sounding wave. Where we give our sail to the howling gale, And dare the storm-king's wrath, When he sweeps in might, from his cloud-capped height. With destruction in his path, And the gathering blast bows the stalwart mast Till it bends like a feeble staff. Or beneath the shroud of some gathering cloud How boundeth his soul with joy From the deck he springs as loudly rings The cry of-" All hands, ahoy For the seaman's life is one of strife, And he loveth the daring fight, And his dearest dower is the noble power He sways o'er the ocean's might, And no fear on him falls, or storm appalls, Though darkly may lower the night. Yet, dearer to him are the visions dim Of loved ones far away, As he glances back o'er the glimmering track, Beyond the foaming spray. But he lightens his eye at the wished-for-cry Of Land on our weather bow And he worships the air which parts the hair From off his sun-burnt brow, For it breathes of his Home by sea's white foam, And he views his haven now.

A grocer asked an artist, Is sculpture diffiéult The artist replied, Why, bless you, no. You have °^LY1T,0 ^AKE A VVX;K of marbIe and a chisel, and knock off all the marble you don't want." Kansas judges are either very generous, or else they have little dignity. One of them was called old "skillet-legs" by a lawyer, and he only imposed a fine of seven shillings for contempt of court. THE DIVING BELT.This consists merely of a large iron vessel, made strong enough to resist the pressure of the water. It is open at the bottom, and has a ledge round it, on which the people may sit. The bell is raised a little above the level of the water, so that the workpeople may enter it, and then it is gradually lowered into the water by means of chains; the air inside keeps out the water, so that those inside remain dry. As the bell descends, however, the air becomes compressed, and the water rises a little way. To remedy this, and also to maintain a supply of pure air, pipes are brought down from some powerful force pumog, and by means of these the bell is kept full, and supplied with fresh air. Thick glass windows are placed in the top to give light to those witnin. The condensation of the air bv the pressure of the water produces a sense of oppression, and frequently a pain in the eyes or ears this, however, gradually passes away. The men are sometimes provided with a waterproof dress and helmet, clothed in which they can get out of the bell, and walk about at the bottom, air being conveyed to them by pipes. Frequently, indeed, the bell is dispensed with altogether, and these dresses only are used; the air-pipe opening into the helmet, and the excess and waste air escaping by a suitable valve: heavy weights are then fastened to the feet to keep the man at the bottom. Sounds made under the water are conducted bv it to a considerable distance, and hence by taps on the sides of the bell messages are transmitted to the surface. One of these plans is frequently used for the recovery of property from sunken vessels, and for fixing tackle, so as to endeavour to raise them to the surface, and large amounts of treasure have frequently been thus; recovered. VENTILATION IN MINES AND HJUSES. In most mines in England bio-ving machines are now dispensed with, and in their stead a large furnace is placed at the base of one of the shafts. This greatly rarefies the air above it, and thus renders it much lighter than that around. It ascends, therefore, and a fresh ?-Pi'>ly rashes down the second shift to take its place, and in this way good ventilation may nearly always be obtained. The plan, too, is more simple than the use of fans, and less liable to get out of order. Sometimes the furnace is placed in a recess, part of the way up the shaft; sometimes, too, only one shaft is sunk, divided by bratticing into three or more divisions, one for the pumps and working machinery, the other too for the "upcast" and downcast." This plan is, however, very dangeroua. and many of the fearful accidents we hear of in mine? are to be attributed to its adoption. Ventilation in our houses and public buildings is carried on in a> similar way. It is much to be legcetted, however, that the principles on which this should be arranged seem to be so little understood or carried into practice. If we hold a sheet paper near a large fi>-e, we shall soon see by the powerful draught that there is a strong current of air up the chimney, and call air rushes in at the cracks of the doors and windows to supply its place. A good fire, therefore, adds greatly to the ventilation of a room. As, however, the heated air rises, it is an important thing to have some outlet for this, and an opening into the chimney near the top of the room will usually be effectual. In public buildings the foul air is usually carried off near the roof. and arrangements ought to be ma le by which fresh air can enter in a number of small streams at different places, instead of flowing in a large body through an open door, and thus creating- a violent draught.—Cassell's Popular Educator.
