The Early Discovery of Coal.
Bituminous coal, or sea coal, was
known upwards of a thousaud years ago,
in the year 853, but did not cobio into
general use until the sixteenth century,
and was not used in the manufacture of
iron until tho seventeenth century. Au- ]
thracite coal came gradually iuto use so
late as the nineteenth century, and was
not used as fuel in the manufacture of
iron until about sixteen years ago.
Bo early as 1790 anthracite coal was
known to abound in the county of
Schuylkill, in the State of Pennsylvania;
but it being of a different quality from
that known as sea c >al or bituminous j
coal, and being hard of ignition, it was j
deemed useless until the year 1795, when J
a Pennsylvania blacksmith named Whet- !
stone brought it iuto notice. His sue ,
cess in burning it induced persons to i
dig Tor it ; but when found, every per
son connected with the enterprise hud
to experiment on its combustion, and
vaiu were the attempts to burn it by the
majority of them, and all came to the
conclusion that it would not come into
Ijcuurui use.
About the year 1800, Mr. Morris, who
had a largo tract of laud in Schuylkill
county, Pennsylvania, procured a quantity
of coal therefrom, and took it to 1
Philadelphia city, but he was unable
with all his heroic exertions to bring it
into notice, and abandoned all his plans.
From that time until 1806 it was talked
about as a humbug ; when accidentally a
bed of coal was found in digging a tail
race for a water wheel for a forge, which
induced another blacksmith, David Berlin,
to make a trial of it. His success
was generally made known, which induced
others to try'to burn-Pennsylvania
coal.
i
Water and Disease.
i
The Journal of Chemistry warns the i
drinkers of water from wells near dwell- |
ings to beware of the typhoid poison, ;
sure to be found sooner or later in those i
reservoirs, if any of the house drainage
can percolate them. The gelatinous j
matter often found upon the stones of |
a well is a poison to the human system, ;
proi ably causing by its spores a fermen- i
tation of the blood with abnormal heat j
or fever. Wholesome nnf.ainf.fwl i
is always free from all color and odor. I
To test it thoroughly place half a pint
in a clear bottle, with a few grains of \
lamp sugar, and i-xposo it, stoppered,
to sunlight in a window. If, even after 1
an exposnro of eight or ten days, the
water becomes turbid it is a sure rndica- 1
tion that the water has been contara-1 ,
mated by sowers go of some kind; if it | !
remains perfectly elm;- it is puro and 1
safe.
The Communities.
The population of the Communities in
the United States, an authority tells us,
may be rouarh'v estimated as follows :
The Shakers, '2,400; ;ho Fnrmori-'4 *
100; the Eben-Ezers, 1,500; tuo
Zoarites, 800; the Oneida Perfectionists,
300 ; the Aurora-Bethel Societies, 600 ;
total, 5,200. They are located in eleven
States, namely, Maine, Hew Hampshire,
Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York,
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, Missouri,
Iowa and Oregon.
A Now Amusement.
The litest amusement is termed the
"Printer's Delight," and is performed
in the following manner : Take a sheet
of note paper, fold it up carefully, and
inclose a bank note sufficiently large to
pay up all arrears and a year in advance.
And what adds immensely to the feat is
to send along the name of a new subscriber,
with the cash to balance. Keep
your eye on the printer, and if you detect
a smile the trick is a success. Try
it.
If yon have a discharge from the nose, offensive
or otherwise, partial loss of the sense of
smell, taste or hearing, eyes watery or weak,
foel dull and stupid or debilitated, pain or
pressure in the head, take oold easily, you
may rest assured that you have the catarrh.
Thousands aunually, without manifesting half
of the above symptions, terminate in consumption,
and end in the grave. No disease is so
oommon, more deceptive, or less understood
by physicians. R. V. Pierce, M. D., of

Dr. SCIIENCK'H STANDARD REMEDIES.
Tba standard remedies for all diseases of the lungs are
ScmtNca'a Pulmonic Strop, Schxncr's Ska Wkf.d
Tonic, and Schknck'b M anorak* Pills, and. If tak-n
before tbe lungs are destroyed, a speedy core Is effeoien.
To those three medicines Dr. J. II. ScliencK, of Phlladelpbla,
owns his unrivaled success In the treatment of
pulmonary diseases.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens tbe morbid matter In the
lungs; nature throws It off by an easy expectoration, foi
when the phlegm or matter is ripe a slight cough will
throw It off; the patient has rest and the lungs begin tc
heat.
To enable the Pulmonic Syrup to do this, Schenck's
Mandrake Plils and 8chenck'a Sea Weed Tonlo mast he
freely need to cleanse the stomach and liver. Schenck's
Mandrake PUls act on the liver, removing all obstructions,
relax the gall bladder, tbe bile start* freely, and
tbe liver la soon relieved.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic la a genUe stimulant and
alterative; the alkali of which It la composed mixes
with tbe food and prevents souring. It assists the digesUon
by toning up tbe stomach to a healthy condition so
that the food an the Pulmonic Syrup will make good
blood ; then the In'ngs heal, and the pvtlant will scr< ly
get well If care la taken tojirevent fresb cold.
nu ?no Winn to consult l)r. Schenck, either person . 1}
or by letter, can do so at his principal office, oorner oi
Sixth and Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every Monday.
Schenck'a medloinea are aold by all drugRlata throughout
the country.
