Htruther of Mtoouri, hi company with one of the first naval officer* of this country, colled to see Mr. Crawford before he left this city, and in the course of conversation reutarked to him, that his friends were much gratified that he had refused to atocpt an office under Mr. Adaim.

Whilst we arc up*m the subject of Mr. Crawford, there is another fact which we thHik<c>mpcr to mention. It w <ts known tliat Mr. Crawford, mueli to his cre<lit, left the Treasury Di-paitmeni po<*r. Mr. Adams became the purchaser ol his plate, &e. and, as was then supposed, pidd 32834 22 for it ou^ of his own private purse; it turns out that it wus charged to public account.

Reports have been made to the Senate bjr Mr. J. K.

In the month ok April lost, we took occasion to aunnriheeto our reader", that an important experimental memoir no the subject of Aid, written by Mr Marcus Bull, h.ul been re cently read Ik faro the American Philosophic cat Society.M1?l? body deemed the ?T?ject of no ranch Importance, and so highly appro ved of the manner in which it waa treated, that they promptly decided In f*\our of its publication* and accordingly, 'in thssuccecd tag month, it appenred in their transactions. I'he experiments instituted by Mr. Bull were intended tp determine tha comparative quantities of heat evolved during the com bustion of sevend varieties of tacit as *1*0^ to s&ccrtain the relative quantities of tieat lost in our ordinary stoves and Are places. There are few subjects of greater practical impor tance, or in which all classes of society are more deeply interested, la a climate like oars, the production of artificial temperature, may l>e considered asatnong the Indispensa ble objects of sockity. It is ?;v vsit, recognis ed by erary age and condition, and the mean* '-?* *-11- fonn a heavy item of ex 'y,, If theq* we can be nientalist, what species r ihc greats quantity of heat for a given price, and aucv. what con structions of our stoves and.fureplaces will cause the least waste of temperature, he confers an obligation of the grt^tpkt practical value, - * We arc disnoacd to belle vc,tiiat the results obtained by Mr. Bull are sufgdtyntly accurate to enable families to solve tut interesting problems indicated above,naraely4 what is the cheapest fuel, and what arrangement U most convnlent for burning it? The principal results obtained by Mr. Hull are noted in two tables, placed at the end of his memoir. Our space will not enable us to notice the first tabic, further than to allude to the last column, which contains the most important determinations. The numbers here given represent the comparative value, when employed as fuel, of the principal vari eties of wood, anthracite coal, bituminous coal, ami charcoal, the comparison being made between the cord of wood, the ton or anthracite, ami the 100 bushels of bituminous coul and charcoal. Fbr example, the follow tog numbers represent the comparative value of the several woods and coals mention ed> Shell bark Hickory, 100 l'ig-nut Hickory, 93 Hcd-henrt Hickory, 81 White Oak, kl Chcsmtt White O.vk, 86 Darren Oak, 6<> Lchlgli Coal, 99 Schuylkill Coal, 103 Susquehanna Coal, ..99 Liverpool Coal. / 91i nillilwMJ CMil,/ Qos Fine Charcoal, 7 73 These numbers, representing the compara tive values of the several fuels in the quanti ties mentioned, alio shew what ought to be their relative prices, when equally cheap: When the price/ vary from theac proportions, it is easy to ascertain hi favor of w filch species of fuel the variation will l>e. Thus it is seen that the rotative value of shcllbark hickory and fichlKl/coal Is neurly the same, cord fbr too; so that If we could buy a cord of shell bark hickory for ?A, or 6 Jtaes loo, we ought to be able to buy a ton of l?ehigh coal for ?i,94, or fi times 99, to be cqjudly tltiap. ?The numbers given, seem to shew,' whatwc should not liavc supposed, that cord for cord, white oak is equally valuable tylth rod-heart I^W. and ought to bring the same pricet while chcsnut white oak is even mare valua ble. The second table gives t!?c results obtain ed by Mr. Hull, to determine the'comparative loss of heat sustained in the combustion of the same fuel, in the different varieties of fire places, grntcs and atovca. We have confined our remarks to the above branches nf Mr. Bull's cx|wrimental re searches, because they appenred to exhibit the practical importance of his results In a very striking point of view; r K would be im possible, without extending tftia notice to an undue length, to pass unto review the re mainlng experimental details %1iiett ire also highly interesting. All thfct wbltavs at tempted, is to awaken public uttcntfbrt to a performance, whose merit has n6t been suffl i icntly appreciated.
