It is an old Custom with Some house wives to throw into their drawers every year a number of fir cones, under the idea that their'strong resinous smell' might - keepf away the Moth. Now as the -odor of these cones is due to turpen. tine, it occurred to Reatirur to try the effect of this volntile liquid. He tubbed one side of tarpioce otcloth with turpen, tine,- and put some grabs on the other; rhe '-.next tnorning -they were all' dead, and,-- strange tor-say irad voluntarily ni i t~i _Ihe6i r -sad9iE n0 0. tilI _with some the veakest were itmnediately killed; the most vigorous struggled vio lently for tw6 ot three' hours; quitted their sheaths, and died in convulsions. It iras soon abundatly evilent that the vapor of oil or spirits of turpentine acts its a terrible poison ti the grubs. Per. hrtps it may. be said: thht even this'ren dyis worse than the disease, but as Reamur justly observes, we keep away from a newlf paibted room, or leave off for a few days a coat fotni which stains have been removed by turpentine, why therefore can we not once a year keep away for a day or two from rooms that -have-been fumigated -with turpentine. It is however surprising, how sniall a quantity of turpentine is required;-a small piece of paper or linen just moit ened, and put into the wardrobe or diawers a single day, two or three times a year, isa sufficient preservation against moths. A small quantity f turpentine dissolved in a little spitits of wine (the vapor of which is also fatal to the moth) will entirely remove the offensive odor, and- yet be a sufficient preservative. *The fumes of burning paper, wool,hihan, *feathers, and of leather, ai-e also effectaz al, most effectually smoke is tha t of to. bacco. A coat smelling but slightly of tobacco is bufficient to preserve a wihole drawer. We trust our fair readers will not scold us for thtus affording their hus bands or lovers an additianal excuse fur perpetrating-a bad habit. The vapor of turpentine, and the rnnoke of tobacco, -' are also effectual ;a driving away flies. Th'e latter torments are so abundant on the continent, as frequently to deprini the weary traveller of his night's rest. If he-would provide himself with a phtial, containing turpentine and spirits of wvine -in-equal pacts,-and would sprinkle a few drops over the sheets and coverlid be fore retiring to rest, he will probably havetreason to be grateful for the hint. Foreiigners-are in thre habit of smoking in their bedroomi-a habit which ex cites surprise and disgust in England; it will:no'w be seen, however,-that-there is a reason for the' practice,-Skarpe's .London Miagazine. Fadi of Meteoric Stones in Iowa. From-the last number of Siliman's .our nal of Scienc'e, we copy tho following letter from Rev. Reuben Gaylord, of Hartford, Desmronies co., (bwn, to Chars. U. Shepard, Professor of Chemistry ii Amherst College; Ma.s . -.-- .a tho 28th of February, 184'7, at abouit ten minutes before three o'clock in~i afternoon, the attention of the ~'- j1~fi~~mthis regton was arrested by a rtr ii oise as-of distant thunder; then fbo ports-wore heard one af tet another in quick succession, like the blasting of rocks or tp6 firing of a heavy cannon half a mile fistant. These were succeeded 'y several fainter reports, like firing of small arms in platoons. Then- there ,was a whizzing sound heard in difIfj iitdirections, as of bnllets pas sirg through the air. Twofmen were standing together whe 'they were at work; they followed W' their eye the direction of one of . eie sounds, and they saw abott seven ty rods front them the snow fly. They went to the spot. A stone had fallen upon the snow, had bounded twice, the flist time, as supposed, about eight feet, and the second time about ten feet. The stone weighed two pounds and ten oun ces. The same pcrsons heard another stone strike as it fell, snpposed to be small, but they could not find it. Some time in the spring another stone was found about one mile and a quarter west from the place where this fell. It was in two pieces, lying together, weighing forty-six pounds. Another fragment, a portion of the same rock, was found about a half mile from the former, which fiom the description I had of it, I judge would weigh about fifty pounds. These were coated with thick black covering. The principal ingredient in their com position seemed to be sand stone. They are full of minute brilliant particles, and occasionally a small lump of some metal is to be found. Inclosed in this sheet I send you three or four small ones. Some were taken out as large nearly as a grain of corn. A man ft un whom I obtained a fragment insisted that they were silver. He h'ad grou-nd up a considetable quan tity of the rock to obtain this silver, and he thought he had saved enough to make fifty cents (hal( a dollar.) These slones are all that have been found, so far as I dould' learn.- The atmosphere at the time of this phenomenon was mostly clear, somewbat haz'y, so starn as to cause the snow on the ground to be so hat soft.

The motion of the meteoric body was supposedfrom the reports which were heard, to be towards the south east. Hartford, July 12. Suicide at Pcnsacola.-From the lettet of a correspio ndent at P'.nsacola, we learn that quite a gloomlias beten thrown over that city by the self-des struction of a venerable and much res pected citizen of that place, Judge Ga:, nier. The following extract fron-the let, t6r exhibits a calmness and deliberation in the put pose of the deceased, which is perhaps without parallel.-Mobile Reg ister. PENSAC6LA-, Sept. 17. Our friend, .udge Garnier, committed suicide last night, (Sep.16,' by drowning himself. I have always been under the inpre-ssion that he was about one of the happiest metn in this city;- but such wat not the case. From letters lie w'rmto te several of his friends, and wvhich were dated some time back, it appears that hi had for some time past .been making hih arrangements to commit the deed. Hel assigns as his reason,. "poverty"-:thal he had but $120, wvhich wats in. Mr. Hvei's chest-and that it would take all of that to pa~y his debts and bury him dicently.- He wrote a few lines at mid night to Dr. Smith, which he gave to black boy, and told him to hand it t< Dr. Smith early in thte tmornting, which was to informn where his body might hi found. Hie had everything arranged He directed notes to all to whom he wa. indebted, even to hiis-washerwvoman. H E laid his clothe~s in whtich' to be buried~or the bed, and directed where everythint mighit be found. lie sewed t wo larg< bricks in a towel, and tied them to hi back, and pinned a towel over his breas antd back, and wvalked- down to thte lin< of the wharf with his cloak around bin and a ca~i on. WVhen he got to the place hte laid hiis cloak down, placed his caj on it, put a brickin his cap,-and tyinj one end ofta rope to the end of the whar and the oilher end around his waist,thtrev himself into the water, where he wa found this morning. Last night at dush he walked down ont the whatrf, as was hti enstom every evening, with Mr. Hyer Mr. Mit chell, Mr. Kelly and Mr. A then anid was perfectly cool, speakintg of th, Mexican' war, etc. and his letters ani the note wvritten at midnight were ver; neatly executed. Hie will bo burie. this niorning. Settlers Wa nted.-T he State c Areknnsns invite emigrants to come an take lands wvhich have besen forfeited ror taxes, and no payment will be required for them. The Little Rock Banner says the auditor, upon proof of settle. nient iwill make a doed, which deed thd Supreme Court of the State has decided will be valid. The forfeited tractscom prise some of the finest lands in the State and now is the chance for a cheap home or a speculation. Hereditary Suicid.-Dr. Gcall re lates the case of a Mr. Gauthier, owner or several warehouses in Paris, and who left to his seven children a properay of two million of francs. They all resided in Paris an-1 its envitons, where they lived upon their property, which some of them had considerably increased by fortunate speculation. Noi one of then was visited by any material disaster, and all enjoyed perfect health. They were all highly esteemed by their friends and neighbors;'yet all of them labored under an inclination to commit suicide, to which they yielded in the course of thirty or forty years; some hanged, some drowned, and others shot thei selves. The last but one invited on a Sunday a party of sixteen persons to dine with him. When dinner was ser ved, the host was suddenly missing, and having been searched for everywhere in vain, was at last discovered hanging in a barn. Tha last of the seven, who was the-owner of a house in the Rue de Richelieu, having raised it by two stories, conceived that the expense' had ruined him; three times he attempted to destroy h imself, but was prevented however, he at last succeeded in blow ing out his brains, and his fortune wus said to amount to 300,000 francs. Millengcr on Mind and Matter. Secret of Uuhappy' Homes.-Why goes forth that man this Saturday even ing froni the roof under which his chil dren live? Why turns lie from the engagbig little attempts to detuin him, and roughly moves them away, while lie loves them dearly ? Why sits another by his fire, sullen, discontented,- unwil ling to -speak the kindly word, while his ment'?. .y fliesthe cuel speech to her for whom the bosom's strongest affectionis nom-ished 3- And why, sear ching into deep depths, Why does inan become so often a tyrant, so often a criminal, in his home 1 Truth has to be tokf; but, oh ! listen to it kindly, for it is hard to tell. It is because woman does not truly appreciate her mission in domestic life. Under the present con, ditions of existan'ce, she has become weighed down by cares. As a wife she is different to what she was as a mistress. She is ever employed in drudgery for children and househnld. She neglects her diess ;she forgets her manners. Her husband sees the change, does not per. hatis find sufficient excuse for it fron the coadition'she labors under. He flies to the tavern and billiard table ; and she increases in sourness and aspetity -is she increases in years. That much of this-is oiving to the present circuin stances of social life is tiuc ; but thsat much of it i' chargeable to a sad sub mission to those circmstances, is also but too true. It is more or less in the powver of women to make their dotmes' tic life more attractive to their husbands, and more holy in its discipline and ends than they now do. A great regularity in time-a great simplicity in dressat more determined adherence to that which is right in one's own eyes, rathmei than that which is well thought ofin the eyes of others-an orderly apportioninig of varioos periods for different occupa' tions-would make evenings at hionat pass away very differently to what, it the great majority of cases,:they are nov doing. Curious Discove ries.-The Unibi of Mans gives an account of the dis covery, at Boisse~lesec, of a subter. ranearr passage, lead ing'to am hall nearij fifty feet square, in the middle of whicl ts an immense stone table, having abovc it a lbmp in baked clay, suspended b) Ian iron chain. Another curious dis. covwry has taken place at Mtorelette near Mammets. A peasant, who wit digging there for clay,found at about sia feet below the surface a chest, bourn 'with iron,' and containing a long chair and an iron collor, and ttie head of a mian on whlich the skinm a'id bhardl weri -still intact. sThe Caterpillar.-T he genuim~ worm, says thme Alexandria Demoicra sof the 8th inst., is- tundoubtedly in ou flields. and in the course of a few day their work of destrudtion will com menced. That they will do great dam Iage few-w~ill deny ; but we still believ that the crop of the parish wvill be moderate one-say two-thirds. O0 f some places little or no damage will b 1 suntinedr.
