The Properties of Tea.

A Curious Instrument
Some Week's ago we Were startled by
an anneuncenient in the Military 'and
naval intelligence of the' rinieo that *an
; -
instrumerif,whidh.. could measUre the
hundred4housandth' part of 'a: second
VAS employed by the authorities at
Woolwich in expertMentsongunpowder.
at that time one might have thought
that the leading journal was merely
under one Of those p.ts ;of: inaccu .acy
to which We are &l1 ‘Oecasionally liable,
but having -since had an opportunity of
examining the instrument in question, I
am lead to belie -ye that its power wos
not overrated. This machine is used
for measuring the velocity,of a projectile
within the bore of a gun, and, as far as
we could judge, is quite capable of re-
cording the time that a shot, travelling
at the rate. of one thousand feet a se-
cond, will, take to pass over one inch,
The apparatus consists of a system of
toothed wheel -work, beutifully made,
and driven by , means of a decenclitig
weight. The velocity with whicb each
•wheel travels is progrescive in the
proportion of five to one ; that is to say
each wheel travels five times as fast as
tee one in the rear of it. :The last wheel
turns a spindle to whieh six brass discs
are attatched. each disc being thirty-six
inches in circumference. When the
machine is travelling at full speed these
ditc ; move at a rate of about twenty-
eigh revolutions *a, second, or in other
woi ds, about one thousand inches a
second; an inch of disc, therefo.re,
represents the thousandth part of a se-
cond. The passage.of the 'projectile is
recorded on the edge of the disc by
means of a spark deriyed from: a Rhum-
korff's coil; thus the interval. between
two sparks denotes the time taken by
theprojectile in passing over a known
distance in which it ruptures two gal-
vanic circuits, and causing a correspon-
ding number of sparks. Each disc has
its own coil, marker, e.nd galvanic cir-
cuit, by which means the time of pass-
ing over five distinct: spaces can be re-
corded. The actuaJ. rate at which- the
wheals are moving 'is ascertained by
means ofa. stop -watch,attached to one
of the slowly moving,. wheels. As the
thousandth part of aleccond is repre-
sented by an inch on the disc, we can
easily understand that the hundreth
part of an inch, which:is by no means
difficult to measure, Will represent the
hundreth thousendth part of a second.
• Cure for Love.
I have a friend: at London -super
Marc, a dear old lady, who keeps a
school where young ladies are "finished."
The ages of these damsels rage from
fourteen to eighteen, :"sweet sixteen"
being. the &verge. Having a confiden-
tial chat with -my friend during the
calm quiet of her last Christmas holi-
days, 1 a.Sked her if she was not often
troubled by her pupils falling in love,
,She answered me unreservedly, ‘‘1 have
to contend against no greater difficulty.
In a town like this, where we cannot
walk in any directon without meeting
half a dozen boys'.schools—to say noth-
ing of the hundreds of loiterersflaneurs,
Who seem to think that a girls boarding
school is fair game for their sport, it
seems almost impossible to prevent
flirtations from arising, and notes of love
tokeh-Fs being clan.denstinely exchanged.
I 'spare no painsor airs to guard against
and conteract this; but the thing exists,
and will continue to exist, so long
as girls ere sixteen and foolish, and
young men and lads are bold, and
adventurous. My only plan, when I see
that the tender passion has l'een devel-
oped, is to,crush it in the „bud." What
do you dor "'You will smile when I
tell you; for my receipt is the antithesis
of romance, It is a dose of senna tea."
"Senna tear "Yes, \senna tea. When
ever I perceive, as 1...)very quickly do,
that one,.of my young ladies has fallen
(as she fancies) into 'eve I:at once take
her in 'hand • I never hint at anything
connected with the tender passion, but
treat lier as an invalid who is suffering
from' impel -led digestion. I keep her
.elosely to the house and dese her liber-
ally with senna tea, standing by to see
that she drains the dose to the dregs.
This plan is always attended with stic-
ces. ,Sometimes she gives in after the
first few doses, ',Jut usually it takes two
or three days to complete the cure. I
had one obstinate and protracted case
that lasted a whole week; but I was
firm to my plan, and in the end it
succeeded. 1 You may depend upon it,
that as a cure for school girl's calf love
