-='- - CORRESPONDENCE.
' DEAR GAZETTE.'—-We recently witnessed
the unfolding of an exquisitely beautiful
panorama. You naturally ask where. We
answer where you or anyone else may see it.
Who will travel the railroad between Bridge-
port and Pittslicld. You need not dread the
' fatigue, for there is not an easier, smoother
running road than the Ilousatonic of to-day.
Evidently Hon. W. H. Barnum, the presi-
dent of the road is the right man in the right
place, for it is largely to his effort stimulated
by a practical understanding of its needs and
the best manner in which to meet them has
placed the Housatonic road on so popular a
footing with the traveling public. Time was
when we dreaded a journey bythat road.
Ono’s spine was wonderfully and fearfully
exercised in the days before the present
smooth movement was attained. Steel rails
have usurped iron ones and the old discom-
forts have passed away till the traveler real-
izes he is being carried over one of the very
best appointed roads in the country. It is
growing in favor, too, by reason of its scen-
ery, which, in the same distance cannot be"
equalled, and which gave to us the unfolding
of a panorama such as-nature gives only in
her lavish moods. The road, running through
the valley of the Housatonic, follows the
river of that name. Mountains extend on
either side, with here and there a strip of
plains lying west of the river. Just now the
bright autumn tints render the ehtirc land-
scape one of strange brilliancy. How we
longed for the artist’s deft touch could trace
the pictures we saw. We can never forget
those of that October morning. A little be-
low Kent lies a lovely sheet of water, with
the hills rising above it studded with rock
and tree. As we rounded the curve that fol-
lows tlic outline of the lake, we could see
every tree, branch and gay leaf mirrored
from the o’erhanging bills, the blue sky bend—
ing down to shut it softly 'in. It was mile
on mile of pictures. Another, the shallow
river lay in the foreground, its wet pebbles
glistening in the sun; the rocks from the river
bed seeming larger and higher by reason of the
be low water. Beyond, the the dark pines
rising high and‘higher as the mountains as-
ended. Across a large rock rising high out
of the water, at. its very apex almost, had
lodged, probably (hiring a freshet, the trunk
of .a large tree about 20 feet in length, at just
about its centre. There it rested, horizontal-
ly, looking as if the next gust of wind must
topple it into the water, yet it was smooth
and bare, and bleached, it may be by the sun
and rain of many summers. While just be-
yond it a maple in flaming scarlet, stood sin-
gle and alone against a group of dark green
pines. '
“Lime Rock 1” calls the brakcman. We
pick up our shawl and leave the train. “How
far to the village P" we ask our John. “Two
miles.” Mentally, we cxclaim, “Oh, dear I”
and wonder why people will live in such an-
get-at—able places, and feeling that those who
do, deserve the sharp, bleak winds when
King Frost l‘lllt'S, and they have to go from
home. We pass the only church, a pretty
chapel of grey stone, with its neat carriage-
way and shapely turret, built, our John in-
forms us, by W. H. Barnum. Beyond, in a
fine, large brown painted house with roomy
piazzas and luxurious looking bay window,
set in ample grounds live his son, Chas. Bar—
num. A little further on is the home of Mr.
Richardsfifi’crowning the summit of a bean-
tifully rounded hill, covered with a lawn like
velvet. The house is much in the shape of a
cross, its head toward the street. A large
square pillar at either side of the main en-
trance reaches to the projecting roof in front.
A tasry little balcony leaps out from the up-
per story to meet the pillars and perches be-
tween them. A broad piazza sweeps around
to the bay windows on either side. Alto:
gcther it is a fine residence set oil by com-'
manding grounds.
Descending the hill we come to the office
of “Barnum, Richardson Company,” a cheery
oflicc of two rooms nicely fitted up. In the
first room hangs a line painting, which cost
several hundred dollars, of the “Chatfield”
ore bed, by H. Von Ingen, mounted in an
elegant frame. Half a mile beyond the of-
fice is the furnace—the point of our destina-
tion. To reach it, we cross the Salmon river
by a neat iron bridge. Upon the road turn-
ing to the left, in asubstantial, built-for-corn-
fort-and-usc looking house surmounted by a
cupola resides Hon. W. H. Barnum, the head
of the company and an err-member of the
U. S. Senate. A pony and cart standing at
the gate suggests young folks and little chil-
dren. A wide piazza crosses the frorfof the
house, upon which open deep French win-
dows. At the side towards us, a bay window
runs up two stories. A lady sits within the
upper one deftly drawing her thread in and
out her work with nimble fingers, as we .ob-
serve her'»,'but‘in the same moment we are
. seen, and the hands become motionless. A
large square addition placed partly against
the side of theniain building, then extend-
ing back, adds to the size and beauty of the
place. Fine trees shade the gronnds; there
is considerable shrubbery and graceful orna-
mentation. It is u handsome place, with a
wonderful look oi home and comfort about
.' it, b6ti‘aylngll:~~1.slu and refinement of the
inmates. in llll' Xplsiilniblu, but uuuiberlcss
ways undershwl and appreciated by the
feminine mind. We note this as We cross
the bridge, for‘ixe turn now to the right, fol-
lowing thc river, thick, muddy and yellow,
occasioned by the washing of ore up the
stream. The road has a row of p‘nes against
the river edge, under which pass, and cross-
ing a second bridge turn to the right, up the
hill to the furnace which lies about half way
between the valley and “Ford’s Hill,” which
rises directly over it. From this point look-
ing down, one getsabeautiful picture. Like
the nest of a timid bird, set for safety deep
among the hills lies. this lovely hamlet. On
every side hill o‘er-lapping hills rise beyond
and away, a rift here and there between their
rounding outlines giving glimpses of the pie-
tures hidden there. .-
The first foundry at Lime Rock was built
in 1830. The present one, crected in 1870,
is one of eight belonging to the Barnum,
Richardson 00., where pure Salisbury iron is
made, though Mr. Barnum is interested in
several others. The iron used in these foun-
deries is obtained exclusively from the mines
in Salisbury known as "Old Hill.” “Davis,”
and “Chatfield,” the last named being the
subject of the large painting mentioned as in
the office of the company. The ore is wash-
ed by machinery, then crushed and transport-
ed to the furnace, where it is smelled with
charcoal, the company growing thousands of
acres of timber simply to produce that arti—
cle.
The Lime Rock smelting furnace stands 32
feet square at its base and has a depth of 32
feet with an incline of 2% feet toward the
top. Over the furnace is an oven which re-
ceives the hot gases of the furnace by an
archway. In this oven are placed a series of
cast iron pipes 12 feet high shaped like an
ox bow, which receives the air from the
blower in the engine room. When the air
has warmed it is carried down alongside the
furnace by two pipes to meet a horizontal
pipe at the lower end that encircles the f ur-
nace, and these are carried down by branch
pipes. , ,
Upon the floor, at the left, as we enter
the building are ranged “changing seats"
three and four deep, each “cart” containing
30 bushels of charcoal. Two ,of these, (60
bushels coal) are used every hour. Three
carts are made during the 24 hours—one
every 'eight hours. From 1280 to 1550
pounds iron ore are used, with 230 lbs of
limestone at every filling. This is to separ—
ate the iron from the dross. The iron sinks
the dross floats, and as the iron fills at the
bottom the dross flows over a darn 2; feet
high, and runs out upon the ground a mol-
ten stream. . Descending the stairs we find
ourselves at'thc' base of the furnace, where

preparing. Wooden bars of the shape and
size of pig—iron are lam at equal distance
upon the ground, and sand firmly packed
between them. It is then wet, then dried,
the wooden bars are removedhthe spaces left
by their removal being the molds into which
the melted iron runs as it is let out from the
furnace. Through iron tubes, inserted
through the sides of the furnace, the outer
end covered with glass or mica (we don’t
.know which) we looked intolthe interior of
the furnace and watched the melting of the
ore. At times the hot blast would force the
iron out upon the ore, leaving the dross
standingdooking like a honeycomb. Through
each side of the furnace we looked, it was
the same strange fascinating, awful sight.
We ‘_don’t believe we ever had so realiz-
ing a sense of the “hell” our father preached
as we did the day we watched the interior
of that furnace, We felt if that were an
earnest of the terrible fate awaiting sinners
in the hereafter it was not a pleasant one to
contemplate. It must comfort them to know
the late “New Testament.” ignores these ter-
rifying prospecs. We shall stick to the les-
son learned in childhood, though if we can
have our Heaven left us as we believe it to
be, we little care for the disposal made of the
other place. >
, Crossing a foot-bridge to the engine room
we visited the blowing-engine used in the
furnace. The blowing cylinder 5 feet 8
inches in diameter, by 6 feet 4 inches in
length are made of wooden staves like a
The heads are of cast-iron fastened
together by long iron bolts that extend one
head to the other. The pressure on the
blower of % ton, blows 1 lb to the square
inch. The noise is confusing and we soon
make our exit, stopping fora moment on the
foot-bridge to watch the men quarrying lime-
stone close by.
To Mr. Carpenter the gentleman in charge
-—-now with the company many years, we
are indebted for answering our questions to
our satisfaction and enlightening our ignor-
ance as patiently. '
Returning to the oilice the gentlemanly
book-keeper carefully wraps our “white
Cinders” and brings us a small canvas bag
for our minerals. $5,000 is stamped upon
its outside but no riches respond as we look
within. Our Jehu is summoned, and we are
soon homcward bonnd,'living over again the
sights we have seen during one day’s ramb-
ling. M. H. T.

Once DRUNK.——“Just once.” is the devil’s
plea, an enticement which has ruined many
a ;soul. One hour of passion may blast a
life of carelessness. One hour of sleep on
the part of a pilot may send the noble vessel
to the bottom of the sea; and one single in-
dulgence in the cup may throw the balance
of a man’s will into the devil’s hand; and he
knowing it is his only chance may do his
worst.
“Never,” says Dr. Jabez Burns, “shall I
forget the end of one member of the church
of which I was pastor at Perth. He was a
drinker, and at the solicitation of a traveler
with whom hd'fhad business, retired one ev-
eningit.) the hotel. For the first time in his
life he became intoxicated, went home, and
in the heat of passion, excited by the liquor,
committed upon his wife injuries from which
she died.
“In due time he was tried; the evidence
was conclusive, and a; sentence of. death
pronounced. Never will it be effaced from
my memory. I attended him in the cell, and
was the last one to leave him on the scaffold,
and there, within sight of the church of
which he had been forty years a member, he
was hanged like a dog.”
Beware of being once drunk—beware of
the first glass, and you need not fear the last!
—Um'on. _
When we talk about exercise, we are very
apt to forget that it is a many-sided word.
We use it as if it referred to the movement of
the muscles. It is necessary to health that
all our powers should be exerciser], and the
continued disuse of anyione of them r'esults
in its partial on total loss. If one should lie
in bed for years, without the slightest ail-
ment, still one would lose the use of the
limbs; and this is equally true of quite
different faculties. All our powers grow by
use. If we neglect to cultivate the habit of
observation, we might as well walk through
the world blindfolded. We lose our faculty
——what artists call our “touch”—by neglect
of practice on other things besides the piano.
The map who readsscldom reads slowly; the
woman whose writing is confined to an in-
qucntlcttcr to some absent child, spends
more time over that than does a practised
writer over a dozen pages of manuscript. In
the realms of the emotions it is the same.
Benevolence is largely a matter of habit; so
is affection, self-control, gentleness. It then,
exercise, in its largest sense, is of so great
on ‘scqucnce, we at once see the importance
apportioning it to our own personal needs;
if our occupation is sedentary, we need to
plan for walks and rides, and active games,
t. keep our muscles lithe and serviceable.
But if our employment gives us enough
iiiaiscular action, it is not wit less
important to our health of body that we
should plan for mental ext-rcisc—«l’or em-
0110
,ployincnt enough of our memory and our
reasoning powers to keep them from rusting;
and in either case, that life must be a dwarf-
,ed and unhealthy one that does not provide
exercise for-our spiritual faculties—for wor-
ship, and charity, and patience, and magnan-
imity. Exercise of soul, mind :and body can
alone bring us to the stature of the perfect
man.
There are parents who do not enjoy
company, hence they do {not give their
children the privilege of going into society
or of receiving visits. This is unwise, for}
such are the children who run away to sea,
who marry unwisely and who bring shame
upon households. It is a mistaken idea that
any kind of dress will do so long as it is
clean. Try to dress your children somewhere
near the prevailing style, so that they will
not feel utterly alone in a crowd. If they
want to learn to play the piano, to dance, to
sing, compass it for them if you can. It will
come back to you richly. Teach them by
your own cheerful, industrious habits, that
there is much happinsss in this world if they
will carefully seek and plan for it, while
careless habits are disastrous to the best in-
terests in life.
Because parents have had a hard time of
it is no reason why their children should not
be happy. Strive‘ to bring your children up
in such a way that when you come to die
(whether you lcavemOney or not) they will
have the rich legacy already possessed of
industrious habits, their attendant cheerful-
ness and a good store of knowledge.
Drink? Deacon Hogwhistle wouldn’t
drink for anything. But he got hold of a
receipt for making mince pie. It was as
follows; “First take some chopped meats;
add brandy; add chopped apples ;' add
brandy; taste it; add more brandy; adds.
little chopped potato; add brandy; taste it ;
put in some raisins; add brandy; stir Well
and add some brandy; put in a little nutmeg;
add brandy; add a little citron ; add brandy;
use a teacupful of sugar 3 add brandy. The
deacon, concluded he should like some mince
pie, and‘lhc decided that instead of making
the pie and then eating it, he would put the
different ingredients, one at a time into is
stomach and let them become pie there.
This was the explanation given to and accep-
ted by the society when it hauled him’over
the coals for intoxication.
There is a wonderful awakening in the
cause of temperance all over the States, such
as has not been known in twenty- years.
This is shown greatly in the advanced action
in nearly all the legislatures recently in ses-
810D. , ‘
of our land.

FEMALE INEBRIETY.
A NATIONAL HOSPITAL FOR THE TREAT~
MENT OF INTEMI’EIIANCE AND OPIUM EAT-
ING AMONG WOMEN—ALABMING PREVA-
LENCE OF THESE PERNICIOUS HABITS.
Intemperance, as is well known, has been
greatly on the increase in this country, and
at all times are the inebriate .a'sylums filled
with its unfortunate victims. These institu-
tions, however, were built exclusively for
males, as it was thought unnecessary to erect
any for the other sex. But of late it has
become evident that this disease is making
sad havoc among the mothers and daughters
It has nOt confined itself to any
particular class, but poor and rich alikerliave
been counted among its victims. The poor,
of course, seem .to be the most numerous,
because they have no way to hide their dis-
grace, and their sins are triads public every
day in the public courts. In a great many
cases this degradation is not caused by spirit-
ous liquors, but by what may be termed a
worse vlce— the habit of opium eating.
Many rich ladies have become the slave of
this drug, and it is very seldom that any of
them are finally set free. Occasionally the
Coroners’ office lets the world know of the
sudden death of one of these wretched fe-
males; but as a general thing they are close-
ly guarded by their relatives until death en-
sues and the family physician gives a certifi-
cate for burial.
Several philanthropists thought, some time
ago, of establishing a home for the female in-
cbriatc and opium eater, and a movement
was started to accomplish the object in view.
It was decided that the institution should be
located in’thc town of Wilton, Conn.,seventy-
five acres of land having been donated for
that purpose and local subscriptions, in labor
and building material to the amount of $16,-
sist in the good work. It was also determin-
ed that thc institution should be a national
one. The donor of thaland gave it solely on
condition that the hospital should be forever
devoted to the medical treatment and control
of inebriate women and female opium eaters.
He also stipulated that the corporation should
not receive any appropriations or gifts from
the State of Connnecticut, and his object in
doing so was to”prcvent the manipulation of
the institution by politicians. His desire
was that'it should depend forits construction
and endowment upbn subscriptions from the
entire country and that the citizens of every
State should have the same rights and privi-
leges as the residents of the State of Connec-
ticut. To bring it within the reach of the
poorer classes the projectors agreed that
every tenth bed in the institution should be
a free one. , '
As soon as these preliminaries had been
perfected a gentleman well known for his
humanity was deputed to visit the most
prominent men of the country to enlist their
sympathy in the matter and to solicit sub-
scriptions towards the erection of the build-
ing. He commenced his canvassing labors
four and a half years ago, and during that
time he has visited every man of prominence
in New England, New J erscy and New York,
and everywhere met with a kind reception
and charitable donation. In time he will
canvass every State in the Union and his
field of labor will not be confined to the male
sex but the women of the land will be asked to
assist their fallen sisters as far as their means
will allow.
Up to the present time individual subscrip-
tions have- been limited to tar. dollars each,
but many of the subscribers have promised
to give handsome sums when once the build-
ing has been started. Among the contribu-
tors to the fund may be noted President
Hayes, Vice-President Wheeler, Secretary of
State Evarts, Secretary of Treasury Sherman,
exSecretary of War MeCrary, Secretary of
the Navy Thompson, Postmaster General
Key, Attorney General Devens, General
William T. Sherman, Hamilton Fish, George
Bancroft, Charles Francis Adams, Edward
Perriepont, Judges Waite, Bradley, Field,
Hunt, Miller and Harland, of. the United
States Supreme Court; United States Sena-
tors Ferry, Anthony, Foster, Winthrop, Fre-
linghuysen, Kernan, Randolph, Eston,Mc-
Pherson, Hamtln, Burnside and Hoar. The
Governors and err-Governors of States are
representend on the list of subscribers by the
names of Tilden, Dix, Robinson, Hoffman,
Seymour, Parker, McClellan, Hubbard, Eng-
lish, Jewell, Hawley and twenty-four others.
More than forty presidents of colleges
have added their subscriptions to the build-
ing fund, and of these may be mentioned
Noah Porter, of Yale; E. N. Potter, of
Union; Thomas R. Pynchon, of Trinity; F.
A. P. Barnard, of Columbia; Howard Cros-
by, of the University; Rev. F. Goeckeln, S.
J., of St. John‘s College, Fordham; Rev. A.
J. Myer, C. M., of St. John's College, Brook-
lyn; Rev. E. D. Boone, S. J., of Holy Cross
College, Worcester, Mass; Brother Jerome,
of St. Francis’ College, Brooklyn; E. G.
Robinson, of Brown University; William H.
Campbell, of Rutgers; L. L. Caldwell, of
Vassar; E. A. Hoifaman, dean of the Theo-
logical Seminary, New York; David A. Dem-
arcst of the Seminary at New Brunswick;
William ' ‘hompson, of Hartford Seminary;
Edward A. ‘Park, of Andovcr Seminary ;
John Wiley, of the Drew Seminary; .Gcol‘gc
Gray, of the Cambridge Seminary, and Tll!):ll-
as J. Sawyer, of Tufts College.
The clergy of all denominations has been
well represented on the lists. llis Eminence
Cardinal McClOsky heads the Catholics, and
he is followed by Bishops Laughlin, of
Brooklyn; Ryan, of Buffalo; McNeirny, of
Albany; Corrigan, of Newark; McMahon,
of Hartford, and O'Reilly, of Springfield.
Among the Bishops of the Episcopal faith
'who have contributed are B. B. Smith and
Horatio Potter, of New YOrk; George F.
Seymour, of Illinois; John Williams, of Con-
necticut; A. N. Littlejohn, of Brooklyn;
Benjamin H. Paddock, of Massachusetts; M.
A. DeWolfe Howe, of Central Pennsylvania;
T. A. Starkey, of Northern New Jersey;
Thomas M. Clark, of Rhode Island; ’1‘. D.
Huntington, of Central NewlYork; William
Deane, of Albany, and J. N. Gelleher, of
Lousiana. The Methodist denomination is
represented by Bishops Foster, of Boston;
Harris, of New York; Haven, of Atlanta,
Besides the above lists
2,000 clergymen of all denominations have
subscribed to the fund.
The building, which will be of granite,
will be commenced in a few months, and ad
vanced thereafter as fast as the funds will
allow of without creating one dollar of in!
debledness. It is expected that its erection
will cost only a reasonable amount of money
as a great quantity of building material has
already been donated. The location of the
intended structure guarantees to the inmates
complete seclusion from temptation.
A SOUTHERN TRIBUTE TO GARFIELD,—Gell.
G. W. Gordon, an ell-Confederate, in his ad-
dress on President Garfield at Memphis, paid
the following remarkable tribute to the char-
acter and memory:
While his steps were in the dust, his .
eyes were on the stars.- By courage, toil,
talent, integrity and sobriety. he fought his
way,single-handed and alone, from the hovel
to the White House. By these instrumen-
talities he passed from the humblcst to the
highest station. not only in his own country
but, I submit, to the most noble, exalted
and enviable position to-day held by any
citizen of the world.‘ And, although he
ascended from a level sonlow to an eminence
humility. He was one of the few men of the
world’s great history whom prosperity hum-
bles and adversity strengthens. I had rather
possess the emotion, the culture, the oratory
and the genius of Garfield than all the
bloodstained laurels that :ever Cmsar tore
from the livid brows of fallen kings, or all'
the jewels that ever Hannibal stripped from
the frozen fingers of his slaughtered knights.
The wisdom, moderation and reform fore‘
shadowed in his brief administration were
daily widening his influence and popularity,
especially with the people of the South, and
we hoped that he was hastening the day.
when we, could all feel and say We have but
one sky, one flag, one union, one country,
and one President.

SCIENTIFIC plenum.
Papaine is a juice procured from the
0am papaya, or papaw-tree, which grows
in the Moluccas, in India, in the Antilles
and in South America. Its chief property is
a remarkable digestive power, acting, like
the gastric fluid of the stomach, upon meats
and various other substances. It is proposed '
by M. E. Bouchut that papaine be used for
dissolving the false membranes of diphtheria
In his experiments, a thick and resisting
false membrane from the teaches, placed in
a.tube with a third part of papaw juice, was
dissolvedjn a few hours when the tube was
warmed. Since beginning his investigations
of the subjc'ct, he has employed the substance
in the treatment of thirty-two cases of diph-
theria of adults and infants, and has been
successful in all but four. ‘
In the British collierys numerous experi-
ments have been made to determine the
cause of explosions in the mines, and these
results are now accepted as_correct by most
o‘the experiments: 1 Explosions are usually
caused by the presence of cool dust in air
containing a small amount of true fire-damp,
the Davy lamps serving to detect the presence
of dangerous gases when in sufficient quant-
ity to alone cause explosion. 2. Mixtures
of coal-dust and air without fire-damp are
not explosive. The re-searches have shown
that air containing no more than two per
cent. of fire-damp (a quantity so small as to
escape notice) is unsafe in the presence of
coal-dust.
French authorities are investigating the
subject of the influence of school-room ar-
rangements upon the eyes of pupils.
Observations by M. Rene Thnre show that
the telephone is remarkably sensitive to
lightning. . He stretched a metal wire be-
tween two houses, connecting one end with
a telephone. During every thunder-storm
since 1879, he has been able to hear sounds
in the telephone at the instant of the light-
ning-flash, and this even when the lightning
was estimated to be twenty or twenty-live
miles away. At times the sounds became
quite loud.
The earliest attempt to obtain light by
incandescence in a vacuum :was made by
King, in 1843, who applied continuous me-
tallic and ca'rbon conductors. and heated
them by the electric current in a Torricellian
vacuum- He was followed in 1848 by
Staite, who used an iridium, or an iridium
and dlatinum wire, and enveloped the holder
in glass or some other non-conductor. In
1872, Konu employed graphite, and render-
edit incandescent in an atmosphere of ni-
trogen, in which there was no wasting away
of the carbon. The same principles have
been followed, but with greater promise of
success, in the more recent attempts of
Edison, Maxim and Swan at producing
illumination by means of ineandescence.
Dr. Danckwort has just tabulated the po-
sitions of forty-six stars for the commence-
ment of each century from 2,000 B. C. to
1800 A. D.
The hydro-carbon discovered some time
ago by a Frenchman still attracts much at-
tention on account of its peculiar property
of burninlz at a very slight increase of heat
above the average of the surrounding air, so
that, whils ite light '13 very brilliant, its heat
when burning will not burn the hand or char
a handkerchief.
The preservation of articles of diet with
salicylic acid has been prohibitad by the
French Government, it being considered that
this well-known preservative agent is dan-
gerous to health. ,
A prize of 81.600, to be awarded in Jan-
uary, 1884, is offered through the Brussels
Royal Academy of Medicine for the best
essay on diseases of the nervous centres,
particularly epilepsy. A second sum of
$5,000 is to be awarded the essayist if he
makes a decided advance in the therapeutics
of such diseases—such, for instance, as the
discovery of a successful method of treating
epilepsy. ' Another prize of $4,000 is offered
by the Turin Academy of Medicine for the
best essay on “The Physiopathy of the
Blood.” ’
Ina recent paper on the principals of'a
copying ink to be used without a press.
Prof. Atwater, F. R. 8., stated that in prac-
tice he found thetheoretical conditions of
.such an ink best filled by the following
preparation: Any ordinary black ink is re-
duced by evaporation two-fifths of its vol-
ume, _when sufficient glycerine is added to
restore the ink to its original quantity. A
copy from this ink is taken by simply press.
ing with the fingers a leaf of the copying-
book over the writing.
A curious electrical phenomenon was re-
cently witnessed, during a thunder-storm in
France, by M. Laroque. The tallest of a’
group of lilies was enveloped in a diffuse
violet glimmer, forming an anreole around
the corolla. The light lasted eight or ten
seconds. On its disappearancethe pollen of
the flower was found to have been scattered ,
evidently by the electric {fluid It is not
stated that the lily was otherwise injured by
the remarkablt manifestation.

What Garfield told Mrs. Logan.
“1 cannot say that the sad . news of last
evening was unexpected,” said Mrs. Senator
John A. Logan, “because for several days
the General's dispatches from New York
have foreshadowed. this final ending of the
career of one of the most brilliant and prom-
ising statesmen this country has ever known.
And all this morning I have had vividly in
my mind the tired and weary featuresPresi-
dent Garfield wore the last time I saw him.
It was in Washington, a short time after his
nomination. Upon his return from Chicago
the Ohio delegation gave him a reception,
and of course the whole crowd of officehold-
emt the Capital had been zealous in their
attentions, so that he was hardly given a mo-
ment's time to rest and gain that strength
which he must have lost in attendance upon
the long and exciting con'vention in Chicago.
Oneday he called upon us as was his custom,
unannounced. He said .he‘ was wrestler] and
worn out, and remained ill] the afternoon. I
remember his using these words: ‘General, I
am convinced now that I made a mistake in-
accepting this nomination for the Presidency.
I have already reached the highest place my
ambition sought. I am a Senator from one
of the leading States in‘ the Union. With
an ordinary respect for the opinions. of my
people I feel satisfied I can remain In Con-
gress so long as Idaho, and can add to what-
ever of reputation I now enjoy. But if sin
elected President it is only for four years.
My administration may not prove a success.
But if it should, what then ? I can conceive
,of nothingso humiliating as being an ex-
President.’ ”—Ezchauga.

Are Rich Men Happyo
- On one of the last days of his earthly ex-
istence, John Hopkins, the late Baltimore
millionaire, called his devoted gardener to
him and said: “I am beginning to hate this
place, because it does not bring in money.
I hate everything that does ngt bring in
money. Did you ever feed the hogs ? Have
you not observed that the strong animals
bearaway the cars of corn, and that the
weaker ones pursue , them squealinglv, in
hopes that all or some of the treasure will
be lost or dropped ?" The gardener replied
that the sketch was true. “Well, then," said
Mr. Hopkins, "1 am that strong hog. I
have that big car. of corn, and every piggish
rascal in Baltimore is intent upon stealing it
or wrestling it from me. Sir," he said, turn-
ing brusquely to the gardener, “do you think
a very rich man is happy 1’" The gardener
answered: “The extreme of poverty is a sad
thing.‘ The extreme of wealth, no doubt,
bears with it many tribulations.” Mr. Hop-
kins rejoined: “Yen are rightmy friend; next
to the hell of being utterly bereft of money
is the purgatory of possessing a vast amount
of it. Iliave a mission, and under Its Iliad-
ow I have accumulated wealth, but not lisp-
piness." ' '
