Srycine.—Singing is a great “ Institntion.’
It oils the wheels of care, and supplies the
place of sunshine. A man who sings has a
good heart. Such a man not only works
more willingly, hut he works more constantly.
A singing cobbler will earn as mnch again
money a8 a cordwainer who gives away to low
spirits and indigestion. Avaracious men
never sing. The man who attacks singing
throws a stone at the head of hilarity, and
would if he could, roh June of its roses and
August of its meadow larks. Singing promotes
health, strengthens the voice, the organs of the
throat and lungs, and prevents or cnres consnmption.
Manners are more esteemed in society than
virtues ; though the one is artificial, like false
hrilliants, and the other pure, like real jewels.
A FASHIONABLE opera cloak costs as much in
New York, as a farm in Illinois.

Openings,
The relative grinding capacities of “The Excelsior” Grinder
and Amalgamator, of the Flat Bottomed Pan, and of the Conical
Pan when properly constructed, are respectively 177, 98 and 110.
That is, the respective mullers being of the same diameter,
same weight, same hardness, and running at the same velocity
“The Excelsior Grinder and Amalgamator”’ will reduce one hundred and seventy-seven tons of ore, the Flat Bottomed Pan ninetyeight tons, and the Conical Pan one hundred and ten tons to the
same degree of finencss in the same time,
The wear to the Shoes and Dies at their grinding surfaces in the
Excelsior Grinder and Amalgamator, is perfectly uniform, thus
securing eveuness of reduction to the pulp, as well as steadiness
of motion to the muller.
las oar attained in no other than that of the Tractory form——nor
can it be.
Another property of excellence in this machine is that the, metal
or substance to be amalgamated passes direct from the grinding
surfaces into the quicksilver ; thus excluding the possibility of its
becoming coated with any foreign substances, after having becn
burnished. It is truthfully said “that the Tractory-formed Pan
as x Grinder has no equal, and as an Amalgamator no superior.”
As a whole, it is fur superior to any other pan in use.
