We announced last week the forthcoming of this work. We have had the satisfaction of examining its pages. Its typographical execution reflects credit upon the already well-es tablished name of its enterprising publish ers, Messrs. Lippincott, Grambo & To., of this city. But the manner in which the work is executed, is more than excelled bv the!"109' ,ivei.v interest in the success of this matter of its pages.

" This work places North Carolina on high grounds. The author, a native of the Stale, and associated in her councils for the last quarter of a century, has had opened to him the records of the officers of Board of Trade in London, the archives of his own State, and has examined and extracted from every work on her history, from Amidas and Barlow in 15S4, to the latest ephemeral, production of the day. We trust and predict for it a welcome reception by every friend of literature, and trust that all who wish to acquaint themselves with its history, will procure a copy. Science andtfrt Astounding Inven tion. We notice an invention by Mr. Solomons, of Cincinnati, of what he call a perfect substitute for steam! Front common whi .ing, sulphuric acid, and wa 'tff, he procures carbon in the gaseous state; ami with the power exerted by this gas he asserts that he now drives a 25 horse engine, and for one-fortieth the ex pense of steam, lifts and lets fall 12,000 lbs. five times in a minute. This fluid, without any heat applied at all, exerts a pressure of 540 pounds to the square inch, while water in the same unheated slate has no pressure but that of gravity. Wa ter healed to the boiling point, yields a power of fifteen pounds. Phis fluid, with the same heat, would yield a power of nearly 12,000 pounds! And what is! more, a handful of charcoal, and a boiler the size of a tea-kettle, will produce, at j an expense of a few cents, the whole ol' this tremendous energy! Fifty dollais expense in carbon will carry one of the Collins steamers fro n New York to Liv erpool. Christian Statesman Another World's Fair From thf following, given by a correspondent of the Journal of Commerce, it will be seen that we are to have a World's Fair in New York the ensuing spring : I notice, by the London Times and ; Chronicle, that a party of wealthy and in jfluemial merchants in your city, have made arrangements with the various For eign Commissions here, to open an Exhi bition in N York some time in Anril next.

It was suggested by an essay in the London Lancet on the 'physiology and pathology of the oxalate and phosphate of lime, and their relation to the formation of cells." " The conclusions of the author (says Professor Stone) are ba.ed upon careful chemical research and results from the use of the remedy. His researches show that in man, as in vegetables and in ferior animals, phosphate of lime as well as albumen and fat is absolutely essential for the formation of cells, and he consid ers that manv of the pathological states ot (the srsicro depends upon a deficiency 'of this salt.

The usual remedies were un successfully applied until August, when cod-liver oil was used, but the Udisorgani zation of the stomach was increased by it. The phosphate of lime was then applied eight grains thtee times a day Its good effects were soon apparent. It and the oil were, therefore, administered to gt ther, and the patient soon was restored to health.
