SILVERS PLASTIC PAINTS—CHEAP,
DURABLE, AND PROTECTIVE—W EA
THER AND FIRE PROOF.—This Paint will
stand any climate, without crack or blister, and
hardens by exposure, thus making in time an
enamel of stone, protecting M ood lroni deca), and
Iron and other metals lroni rust and corrosion.
This Paint differs from the so-called Mineral
Paints of the day, which are principally Ochres
.i eu..., -11111 tirf*l v worthless.
U l&V4 Vlit I c V » ...
Silver's Plastic Paints are purely Metahc, con- j
tabling no Alumin or C lay. j
They are levigated finely, mix readily with
Linseed Oil, (without the trouble of grinding,)
and flow under the brush as lively as the best
White Lead.
These Paints excel all others in body or cover
ing properties, one pound of which will cover
as much surface, as two pounds ol White Lead.
There are four natural colors, viz Black oi
Slate, Brown, Olive,and Chocolate.
Directions.—This Paint flows freely under the
brush, and its covering property is increased by
using it mixed as thickly as possible, with 11 kk
Linseed Oil; as the Paint is the lasting or pro
tecting body, and the Oil simply the medium or
agent in spreading it.
We annex copies of two letters, one from the

J. S. Silver, Ksq—Denr Sir, We have used
your ‘Plastic Paints’ for more than a year, and
for painting Bridges, Depots, &e., &c., we have
found it quite equal to any paint we have used.
In tact, we now give it a preference over ail
others we have tried for such purposes, lours,

Dear Sir : You ask me for my opinion ut
“Silver's Mineral Paints," which you have put on
my Machine Shop and Planing Mill. I give > ou
with pleasure my full and hearty recommenda
tion of it as a preventive ot Fire communica
ting from chimneys, or from adjoining buildings.
The Paint w hich you put on my root, has now
become as hard as slate, and 1 feel as secure trom
Fire, in this direction as is possible. A lew
weeks after the roofs hail been painted, I made
an experiment on two or three shingles, b) pla
cing them in the furnace under the boilers; the
result was, that the portion uncovered was en
tire! v consumed, while the Painted part was ap
parently sound, though upon examination tiie
wood was found to be charred; the Paint, how
ever, wasfinn, and but little blistered. I consider
this as severe a test as your Paint can be put to,
ami under the circumstances, 1 do not hesitate to
i commend it as an invaluable preventive against
Fire. Respectfully, &c.,
(Signed,) AMBROSE SPENCER.

PAUL QUOTING A HE ATHEN POET.
In Paul’s address to the Athenians (Acts,
xvii,) he quotes a heathen jH»et, confirming a
.sentiment he had uttered. “For in him we
live, and move, and have our being; U9 cer
tain also of'your own poets have said, “tor
we are also his offspring.’ ” He is supposed
to have referred to Aratus, the Sicilian, and
Cleanthes, the stoicof Assos. Mr. Lewin has
furnished the following translations;
From A rains.
From Jove begin we. Who can touch the
string,
And not harp praise to heaven’s eternal
King?
He animates the mart and crowded way,
The restless ocean and the sheltered bay.
l)oth care perplex? Is lowering danger nigh?
We are his offspring, and to Joy we fly.
From Cleantfu*.
0 resit Jove! most glorious of the immortal
hand!
Worshipped by many names; alone in might!
Author of all! Whose word is nature’s law!
Hail! unto thee may mortals lift tlieir voice,
For we thino offspring are. All things that
creep
Are hut the echo of the voice divine.
WHEN TO CUT WHEAT.
Cutting w heat at the proper time, (says the
Piedmont Whig) is a matter of more impor
twice tluiu iarmers generally are aware ox.
When wheat is cut from ten to fourteen days
before it is fully ripe, the grain not only
weighs heavier but measures more, being of
decidedly better quality, aud producing a
larger proportion of tine flour to the bushel.
As the graiu ripens, the thickness of the skin
rapidly increases, woody fibre being formed
at the expense of the starch and sugar. By
this process, the quantity oft he flour is lessen
ed and its quality deteriorated. It is there
fore all important that the wheat should be
cut while sugar, gluten, starch, water, Ac.,
still constitute a large proportion of the grain.
The same reasoning applies to rye, barley,
oats, Ac. This is not theory merely, but
the result of accurate and carefully conduc
ted experiments, made both in this country
and France. ^____
WOMEN'S “RIGHTS” IX TURKEY.
A foreign correspondent of the Worcester
Palladium writes:
“Please tell my friend, Miss Lucy Stone,
that I saw in the streets of Constantinople,
in yellow slippers, and riding straddle on a
horse, Kara-Fatima-lIaneum.a noble and rich
lady of Munich, who solicited aud obtained a
command among the Turkish volunteer for
ces. She has under her orders a battalion of
five hundred wicked hiking Asiatics, equip
ped by herself. She is about fifty years old,
goes veiled in the ordinary mautier, but
shows her face freely in spite of her veil.
One sees by theexnrewion of her countenance
that she is made of the right stuff. She will
do something.” ^_
A FLATTERING PICTURE.
The New York Times says that the fash
ionable society of that city is a sham, from
beginning to end. it is utterly unsound, de
praved and unnatural—a deceptive piece of
rotten wood, made to look shiny with French
polish and glittering with the phosphorescent
light of corruption—a copper cent, trying its
very best to look like a five franc piece, and,
what is worse, in nine cases out of ten suc
ceeding.
