Nov. 13. 1858. tf T N announcing a new volume of tlm Scottish Amek Jotr.K !.. tie '"rin .:-.-!r !M.? to ::i I! ;tf !- tion to tho.e features of the jiaper which have already j secured for it a large share of support, and which j ought to commend it to the patronage of a still more! numerous class of readers. 'the special feature of the paner is that it is a Scot- . tisli . journal, containing notices o every event occur ring iu Scotland that can be regarded as of the least interest to natives of the. country now residing on this continent. The news of the whole country is careful ly collected and condensed, so that no event, which it concerns Scotchmen to kno is ever omitted from the columns of the paper. Articles relating to Scottish subjects, original and selected, are also published Ironi time to time and the more special character of the Journal is sustained by literary features of national interest iu the form of tales, historical and miscellan eous sketches, anecdotes and poetry. While thus national in its eln-raefer so far, these special features occupy comparatively limited space in the eight large pages of which the paper consists, three-foui ths of which are devoted to news and other genrra.l matter calculated to be of interest, to all clas ses of readers, and not to Scotchmen alone. A carc lully compiled epitome of intelligence trom England. Ireland, the continent of Europe, and all parts of the world is given in every number, with extracts from the leading articles of the British Journals on the most interesting public topics of the day. With a view to increase the popular interest, of the Scottish American Journal.'7 ml to add to its val ue us a family paper, arrangements have been made for a series of attractive tales, founded chiefly on sub jects connected with Scottish life. The first of these stories, entitled Clara Howard : a tale of the Cri mean War," commences with the frst number of the new volume. A considerable instalment of the siorv will be .'riven in every number till it is completed. NEW CEOr MOLASSES. . (4 A4 i HHDS.

January 15, 1859. 3-mo quality. Sherry is too strong and too dear for Spaniards, and too feverish for the climate. The best is, in Xeres, a dollar a bottle. The best in the bodega is worth from fifty to eighty guineas a butt ; and, after insurance, freight, and sale charges, it stands the importer in from one hundred to one hundred and thirty guineas before it reaches the cellar (say) in iidgrave Square. "IIow many gallons to the butt, Don Sanchez?" "About one hundred and twelve. This will bottle into about fifty two dozen, and the duty is five shillings and sixpence the gal-' Ion. So you may form your own opinion about cheap London sherries, which are, generally, very curious indeed mere doctoi's draughts, in fact, made up according to certain swindling prescriptions." Here was a blow for my old friend Bitms, who opens a bottle of forty-eight shilling sher ry with the air of an antiquary unswathing a mummy Pharoah. Thought I, the next time the deluded man points to the oily stickiness of his glass, I will leap up, seize him, and say, in a hollow voice : "Binns, you are the victim of a life-long delusion ; that stuff you drink, you think is the juice of the Spanish gropes, pluck ed by men playing guitars and smoking cigars ; yon call it, iu poetical moments, bottled sun light, sunuie, and so 011 ; bah ! (alter the manner, of Napoleon) It is only a chemical compound made up of drugs and infusions, like Daffy's elixir or James's powder. It is cooked up with boiled, treaclcy wine and brandy. It is a cemponnd mixed from a dozen barrelsand made to order for a particlar market. If the vines of Xeres grew till they got black in the face, Binns, the- could not yield wine like your forty-eight shilling sherry ." -The Don laughed, and said that certainly the sherry wine district was very small ; not more than twenty miles square. Therefore, it could not yield honest wine enough even for half London. The sher ry grape grew only on certain low, chalky hills, where the earth, being light-colored, is not so much burnt dhl not chap and split so much by the sun, as darker and heavier soils do. A mile beyond these hills the grapes deteriorate. The older the plant3 the bete r ; but the fewer the grapes. Dickens's "Household Words. , apartment, from whicii female screams issued wildly, piercing and unceasingly. The hotel was in ' an ujiruai' ; proprietors, clerks, waiters, porters, and guests, dressed and half-dressed, were at the door uf ''forty eight" ina few minutes, blocking up the entrance and asking each other eagerly, " What is tho matter ?'' " For God's sake tell us what is the trouble V The cause of this outcry may be imngintd. The bride had awakened about midnight, and putting her hand over her hushaud, it fell up on the Iidiania'n's face, and the soft, warm touch aroused him at once, lie d'd not under stand it exactly, though he did not dislike it, and in a moment more Mrs. 11. said " Aly dearest, husband, where have you been all the while ?" " Husband," echoed the merchant, beginning to see, like lord Tinsel, that he had " made a small mistake here," ' I am nobody's husband. I reckon, my dear madam, you're in the wrong bed." In the wrontr bed horror of horrors, thought the bride. What would her liege lord what would the world say ? And lis. 11. screamed terribly and sprang from her couch just us her companion did the same. lie was fully as much alarmed as she, ami entreated her to give him time and he would leave the apartment, al though it was the one he had engaged he'd oath to that. Scream, scream, w as the only response to this kind proposition. " My liod, madam, don't yell so ! you'il wake the house. Be reasonable ; I swear its only a, mistake. Have some thought of the conse quence. I don't want to hurt you, I swear I don't. You'll get mc shot, and yourte'l' well, I won't say what."

The interval on the scale between the freezing and boiling points, is divided into one hundred and eighty equal parts. This division is simi larly continued below the freezing point to the place 0, called zero, and each division upward from that is marked with the successive num bers, 1, 2, 3, etc. The freezing point is thus the thirty-second division, and the beiling point is the two hundred and twelfth division : these i divisions are called degrees. Thermometers of this character are called Fahrenheit's from a Dutch philosophical instrument maker, who! first introduced this method of graduation r u ..!.. ii:.. 1 "u ,l ZCIO 01 a Lucmuuicwi Sta C oaa 1 e.anuu ma for ft do.r tme the real zero 01 neat, or tne point at wnicti bodies are entirely deprived of heat.

The junior proprietor, Dr. Cahill, saw there must be some mistake, and requesting the otl.cr to retire, called the merchant out, went with him into another room, and there learned the whole story. The Doctor then sent one of the ladies of the hotel to Mrs. 11., and the en tiro affair was explained greatly to her relief, though she was overwhelmed with confusion at a cir cumstance that mighi have ruined her reputa tion forever.

Nov. 20. 185S. tf deg., and boils at 100 deg.; and according to Fahrenheit, it freezes at 82 deg, and boils at 212 deg. In England, Holland, and the U. States, the thermometer most generally used is Fahrenheit's. Reaumer's scale is used in Ger manv, and the Centigrade in France, Sweden, and some other parts of Earope. The scale of the Centigrade is, at present, almost universal ly adopted for scientific purposes. . A Fact. It is an establisted fact, that no man o no firm lias ever advertised business on a grand scale without making money. They may have spent it faster than they made it, thev mav have lost, but advertising paid. If there be the shade of a doubt as to this, let the reader recall all the instances of perseve ring advertising most editors can recall many which have manifested themselves in the newspapers of late years, and he will be aston ished at finding the proportion of them 'which have speedily realized fortunes. If asking how we know whether such enterprise is successful, we answer "by the advertising itself." When we see by our exchanges that this or that ven dor expends fifteen, twenty or thirty thousand dollars a year for advertising, and see this con tinue for several years, we require no other proof of success. There is, now-a-days, no thing so certain as advertising, when a man has something to sell, and the public will indeed, buy almost anything, when they find that everybody else has it, and that it is "spoken of." Observations made during the past year in advertising, have convinced us that of all business supports there is none so reliable or profitable as advertising. Phila. Bulletin,.

Iti a station house in Cincinnati, a lew nights ago, Old Hundred was sung upon the occasion of a benevolent clergyman visiting the place to hold religious exercises. Among those who took part was a tenor singer, who was at one time leader of the choir in Kev. Dr. Asa Smith's church iu New York. He evidently had a good tenor voice once, says the Gazelle, but exposure, dissipation aud bad whiskey, has rob bed it of its mellow richness. The poor fellow cried like a child. lie was evidently reminded of other days. While the singing and praying was going on, some of the women in another room were screamiug and blaspheming, sn;d, take it altogether, church music has rarely been heird under such associations. Mr. Emery visits the station house about 10 o'clock every night, prays and talks and sings with the crowd of vagrants, and furnishes them a supper ot good bread, the means to put chase the latter being put into his hands by tencvo ent persons in that city. Corset and Bustle. The New York Tribune notices a new institution for females " a mys teriously combined corset and bustle, and skirt supporter, all iu one piece, the invention of an ingenious Frenchman in this country, for which a patent was granted last week. It is a corset with a ba.'que prolongation, which is flaring and stiff, with whalebone for a bustle. This arrangement is handier to inauage, more com fortable to wear, and looks better outside than any other ; it makes t!.e bustle become a por tion of the figure, and gives the porsibility of a display of elegance of fi-rure if the wearer has any. Detachable shoulder-straps complete the garment."
