"Mr.Fleuss's method is still more effectual, because he carries his own supply of oxygen with him in a compressed form, and hs thus been enabled to breathe in an atmosphere in which there is no appreciable quantity of air at all. He states that he has gone through firedamp (carburetted hydrogen) and choke-damp (carbonic acid, and could exist in the charged receiver of a gas factory.

In the great helmet and in tho hollows of his armor there is room for a certain quantity of air, and this is kept fresh and constantly renewed by a stream of oxygen, the pressure of which he regulates by a tap at will. To refresh himself, he increases the flow of oxygen and when he requires no stimulus, diminishes it. Mr. Fleuss is a young and vigorous man, who has served in the steamboats of the Peninsular and Or-fntnl Company. His apparatus is cer tainly very ingenious effective, and well worthy of attention."

A Scheme tor Colonizing Palestine.

London Times. The Rev. George Nugee gave a lecture recently at St. George's Hall, London, on a proposal for colonizing Palestine by Jews, and referred incidentally to the existing establishment of the Jewish colony of flfty-flve inhabitants near Jaffa. After some statistics relating to the modern Jews, who, he said, had shown themselves so alive to the advantages of education that they number half the University half tne barristers and half the merchants of Vienna, the lecturer proceeded to develop a plan which, he said, had met with the approval of many Jews, and had been communicated by Mr.

Lawrence Oliphant to the Sultan, who received it favorably, for establishing a Jewish colony on the east bank of the Jordan. The plan was to purchase 1,500,000 acres, to introduce a European element into its government, and to settle colonies there, either of Jewish peasant fanners or Jewish farmers employing the labor of the indigonous felluhin. The incursions of the Arabs were a danger, but might be bought off. Ho had sent a circular to Mr. Goschen, the now Special Envoy to Constantinople, who had expressed a deep interest in the schome.

This year there are about seven hundred acres in cotton in that locality, which it is estimated will yield about 400 pounds of lint cotton to the acre, a total of 140 tons. The quality of the article raised in Merced county is about tho same as that of New Orleans Middling, the California production being considerably whiter than that of the Southern states, owing to the fact that it is not rained upon. At the present low ebb of manufactories on this coast, only about fifty tons of cotton per annum can be used, but if any encouragement were given by the starting of cotton factories in this city or vicinity, many other persons in Merced county would engage in its culture.
