" 0 , ho ! 0, ho!" quoth old Jack PrOM,
As he sp ed on his wint'ry way:
And he laughed, delighted,
l
TI�St::i��t�!
a
d!! �a���t gay.
He made the old oak, and the poplar tall,
Bend low at his stormy blast,
And the last yellow lellves to quiver and fall
13efore his might as he passed.
" 0, ho ! 0, ho!' quoth old Jack Frost,
As he looked at the farmer's fire�ide,
And saw the huge log
On the bright fire-dog,
And a flagon and tankard be3ide;
And heard the gay jest, and the loud merry lau�h,
As they trill'd forth their Christmas rhymes,
How happy they grew as the liquor they'd quaff­
Jack gave a huzzafor old times!.
" 0, bo! 0, ho !" quoth old Jack Frost,
As a nobleman's house he passed through,
And saw turkey and chine,
And brnn,ly and wine;
"These, indeed, are rare times for you."
And the ricll man dozed in his easy arm-chllir,
And his fire blazed fiereely and bold;
But he never thought of one morsel to spare,
For thoqe that were hungry and cold.
" 0, ho! 0, �o �" sighed old J ck F.{oi t,
�
As he loo� d In the poor man s hut,
J?ark, d lfty and dl'ear,
find no fi re to cIleer
Without window or d�or that would shut!
AmI a half clad mother her children �llcldled
To give warmth to the nestling brood; '
And tIle little ones cried as together they huddl en
"Oh mother p ray gi�'e us some food .,,,
"
" 0, ho! 0, ho!" sighed old Jack Frost,
At a sight he loved not to see
For paupers he saw, '
COlldemn'd by the law,
To feast upon skilligalee.
And he hea.l'd the poor wretche:;; refused even that
By t�e flmt-heart�d overseer,
He be�leved IIOt th:lr tale, as cozy he 901,
Their heart-rendtng cases to hear.

Condensation of Steam.
We understanrl says the Louisville Journal, that
some of our manulacturers who use steam·power,
are endeavouring to ascertain by e xperimen t,wb ether
they cannot, without much expense, condense near-
ly all their steam, so that, by the use of a large ds-
tern, they can be abundantly supplied with soft w a ter
for their engines. T,he condensation is expec ted to
be pro d u ced by il,i mply passing the I t eam throu gh
horizontal pipes which will thus be cooled b y the
action of the air. There is a common prejud ice
mOlJg engineers, which, apprehend, is not b ase d
WII
upon either scientific principles or actual experiment,
that, if steam is propelled through long pipes, the re-
"lio n upon th' ",g'M " " great .. to m at"" "y
reduce its power. Some of our manufacturers have
employed their surpl us steam for the purpose of '
warming their edifices in win te r, by send i n g i t
through horizontal iron pi pes, in the co mse of wh ich
much of the steam is condensed, while there ioi no
per ceptible effect on the engines. All the extra la-
ber \.hich the engines have to perform is to pro pe l a
column of steam through an open pipe under no
pressure.
If this plan succeeds, it will be ver y valuable ,-
The only loss of steam will be th at which escapes
through the engines and boilers, which is ge nerally
a very small proportion ; so that those factories which
use large engines as well as those which uSll s m a ll
ones, can be fu l ly suppl ied wi th water from the i r rain
water cisterns, The well water n o w ,!!e neral l y ulJed
causes a deposite of ea rb o nat e o l' l i m e upon the b o i l -
e rs, which occasionH two i m portant diffir..u lties, re-
quirinll m o re fuel in the prod uction of steam and

count of the Jepositeli of mu d in

If rai n water were
used, no cleaning out would he required, and the
water is at all ti mes exposed m ost ad va n tageo u s l y

We can ass u re the ed itor of the Journal, and with
him the said experimentors, that no experiment
should be necessary to eitablish so simple a point ali
that UDder conr.i deration .
According to the m o st
plain and simple laws ofnatu re, if the s t a m escapei
from the en ine into a su.lficient length
g ofpipe,
steam w ill not only become instantly condensed, bu t
will produce a vacuum which will f.'lc ililate the work-
jng of the en�ine.

at Newburyport are i n prog resS', and run wil l 21,000
spindles and 541 lo om s. At Manchester two or three
new mills of the largcBt cla-ol are being erected, also
one at Nashua. At L..ett, the Merrimack Manu-
