Letters from the People.
NEW YORK, Nov. 26, 1881.
DEAR Gaznrrsz—Thcrc has nothing oc-
curred in the town of Redding in the last
thirty years, in civil matters, as the veto cast
in favor of license to sell intoxicating liquors;
if I could put my thoughts upon paper and
express the utter disgust I feel I should be
able at least to let my old townsmen know
that my heart is still set against the traffic,
and that age has not changed my sentiments
nor softened the mode of expressing my
hatred of any law that can be passed to give
amonopoly to a few soulless men to sell
agony, and traffic in tears and beggary, and
desolation, and shame, and all because a few
paltry dollars may be gathered into the
treasury. What poor compensation for the
terrible results that will follow that license
privilege granted by votes of men who are
careful and thoughtful in most matters of
importance, votes deliberately cast, perhaps
conscientiously cast, and this the measure of .
conscience. “ It will he sold without license,
and why not, seeing it will be sold, make it
a source of revenue ? ” Is there a crime at-
tended with more appalling results than the
traffic in liquor? And would the good citi-
zens of any town be willing to license any
other crime than this? and so give legal sanc-
tion to it. I say no! the universal answer is
no! The men who did sell without the sanc-
tion of law could not plead a right to sell nor
feel that they had the best men in the town
to back, but now there can be no shame at—
tached to selling. nor buying, nor drinking.
Redding ‘is destined to reap a harvest, the
legitimate result of her sowing, not merely
that she has “sown to the wind and shall
reap the whirlwind,” but she has sown to
vice and shall reap a harvest of broken
hearts, broken constitutions and pauper-ism,
to say nothing of lawsuits and prison expen-
ses. I repeat, in closing, how I wish I could
put my thoughts to paper; but I can’t begin
to do it, so I close with the prayer that men
may learn some day how feai ful a thing it is
under the responsibility that attaches to the
right of franchise to legalize the sale of in-
toxicating liquors. S. M. Marx.
Artax'ra, GA, Nov. 23, 1881.
DEAR Gazsrrn :
Last Week was like the others at the Expo-
silion, full of interest. and each day bringing
excursions from different states and towns.
Thepeoplc are awakening to the fact that
new is the time to see this big show and at
rates of trav‘bl unprecedented.
General Sherman came last week, as a
private citizen, to attend the annual meeting
of the Mexican veterans. With admirable
good sense he declined all offers of a recep-
tion, and at the public meeting of the voter-
ans, held in J udge's Hall, he declined to take
a seat on the stage. After an address by
General Jackson of South Carolina, to the
veterans, Sherman was loudly called for and
the hall rang with cries for Sherman, the
stamping of feet and clapping of hands was
deafening,cll of which be disregarded until a
Mexican veteran arose and said that his old
companions in that war would be pleased to
hear from him. This was enough; he arose
and said he had told many persons that he
should have nothing to say on that occasion,
but he could not disregard a call from a
brother soldier. He mcrcly alluded to his
connection in that war as a lieutenant and
then spoke of how much more pleasure be
felt in coming to Georgia on this occasion
than when sixteen years ago they met in
deadly array. He favored the exhibitions of
mechanism, ingenuity and industry as he
saw here displayed far more than implements
of war, and closed by saying that he thought
as much of every Southern State as he did
of his own native state of Ohio. .
Another particular day of interest was the
arrival of a delegation from Cincinnati of
about fifty persons, bringing a floral ship to-
other with other floral offerings, and pro-
senting them to the citizens of Atlanta, The
ship was fourteen feet long, covered with the
most beautiful and rare flowers, the rigging
was formed of smilax and the sails of white
silk, alsoa beautiful temple with four col-
umns held together with arches covered with
flowers, five floral baskets and a silk banner.
This occasion filled J udgo’s Hall again to lis-
ten to the presentation speeches and replies,
which can be best expressed as reported in
the Atlanta Constitution. The presentation
speech was made by Mr. Harrison, who had
been selected by the merchants and manu-
Cincinnati to ask in their name
.ce by the people of Atlanta, and
‘ . reir cordial good will for the suc-
. ._ .:r exposition which he spoke of
in the most flattering terms. Growing elo-
quent over the presentation of the flower
ship. he said, “ that as a token of our
good will we offer you these flowers. We
hope the designs will be typical of the whole
country. The goodly ship with her white,
silken sails spread to catch the breeze, has
been on her voyage. She is laden with roses
and lilies and many-lined flowers emblematic
of love and affection. Their beauty will
fade and their sweet perfume be lost, but the
fragrance of friendly feeling which We hope
to establish will live forever." The five
baskets of flowers were then presented by as
many ladies, one to Gov. Colquilt, one to
Mayor English, one to the Director General,
H. I. Kimball, the others to some of the
commissioners connected with the. Exposi-
tion. The exercisas over, everybody was
pleased that they had seen Cincinnati and
Atlanta on such flowery terms.
The Exposition seems not only to be for
the development of the resources of the
country in natural and mechanical skill, but
also to inculcate the harmony and good will
of the peoplefas the Director General said
before an audience the other day, that he
should not be satisfied until he had seen Jeff
Davis and Gen. Grant shake hands at the
Exposition.
The exhibits of the woods and mineral
resources of the South are wonderful and a
large space is devoted to them. There are
sixteen railroads that have displays from
along their lines. They are in hopes to en-
courage immigration.
The silk culture of the United States is
astonishing. Cheney Brothers, of Hartford,
have a very fine display of every color and
quality. In one department the different
stages of how it is worked out is stWn from
the cocoon down to the fabric. Much of the
cocoon raising in the South is done by we—
men, who‘rnake it a very lucrative employ-
ment.
Connecticut has two fire extinguishers on
the grounds—one from New Haven and the
other from Waterbury, who make fires and
then put them out, much to the astonish-
ment of the crowd. Nerwich, of your state,
seems to be the only place who has sent a
silhouette, and the tendency to have a pro-
file is contagious and the artist is kept busy.
Messrs. Durham &. Wooster, of New Ha-
ven, have a fine display of carriages. Ohio
is right along side with hers but don't get
ahead of the Nutmeg State.
The Brown CottOn Gin 00., or New Lon-
don, is among the most conspicuous in the
numerous family of gins. Geo.‘W. Miles «St
Co.,'of New Milford, have taken just what
is needed at the South—fertilizers. Then 0.
Pierpont &. 00., of New Haven, come in
with their fodder cutter, which shows cause
and result.
The rain is descending fearful] y to one who
is not owner of an umbrella or waterproof
and: destitute of overshoes. The red clay
mud (which abounds here) is fearful to
launch out in, but a few days of sun and the
wind will whirl clouds of dust in your face.
Such is the inconsistency of nature in thrs
cit . ~
This is the eve of thanksgiving, and while
crowds are leaving their cityhornes for New
England, only visions in imagination of well
loaded tables with poultry and-pigs and pud-
dings and pics can be indulged in here, where
the Governor has not even issued a procla-
mation.
Never mind, we shall rest content with the:
thought and fact that this is thcfil'st thanks-
giving that Connecticut was evcr deprived of
‘ For the Gazette.
Correspondence.
TACOMA TO ALBANY, OREGON.
He who stood beneath an Italian sky with
her balmy clime and golden clouds, reflect-
ing back her gorgeous hues to earth, drinking
in nature’s sweetest and purest colors as they
ride along the horizon, with the sun as be is
bathed in his own resplendent hues as he lifts
himself above the eastern sky, and casting
his strong rays of light upon the snow—clad
mountains as they lift themselves like vast
pillars above their surrounding neighbors as
if they were to rise to kiss the morning sky
and usher in the bright and glorious day.
At her feet extends her rolling plains and sil-
Vered lakes that have become famed in classic
lor’e. How many a poet’s brain has been
fired with poetry,and how many have lavish-
ed the wealth of their genius upon it, and
still they are there as beautiful as when Byron
sung it in verse,or Cicero displayed his fertile
thought in its marvellous description; and
when we tread to-day that classic sell our
minds swept back to altime when Rome
stood in her glory; when four millions and a
quarter of people crowded that wonderful
city; when she stood queen of the known
world and swayed her sceptro with behemoth
strength till kings and kingdoms bowed at
length and obeyed allegiance to her will. At
her feet sweeps along the beautiful Tiber, on
whose banks and noble hillsides towers, of
what is left, of the once far-famed splendors
of Rome.
Who cannot today sweep back in imagi-
nation at a time when she shone with radiant
splendor and the bright luminaries of antiqui-
ty gilded her rostrum. It was here where
Cicero killed the plot of Cataline, and here
Julius Caesar rose to the chief magistrate and
died like an emperor.
The beautiful heavens are as grand now
as then. Her lofty ranges of mountains stand
as conspicuous as ever. The golden colored
waters of the Tiber sweep along as noiseless-
ly as before. Time has not changed her
course, though kingdoms and empires have
risen and fallen. Time has marked upon her
chart the limits of her kingdoms, and like
Sodom and Gomorrah they fall to rise no
more. What wonderful changes liath‘time
wrought? Who is able to battle against it?
Even the elements wi'il slowly crowd from
before it. Nothing is enduring but time it-
self. Rome is Rome no longer. Her people,
her language, a different type, a new tongue
has taken its place. What reflections does
that bring to every thoughtful mind That»,
there is no stability. Time is changing all
things, and who dare predict what 3,000
years will do for us. a language molded so
beautifully as it is, may sink and die like the
waning star, and only be known to future
generations as the remnants of a once refined
and intelligent race of people. If these
changes are taking place, slow as they are,
what will be our ultimate doom ? for surely
it is going on. To him who has read the
poems of Chaucer and then compare thorn
with our tongue to-day, would hardly be
able to decide that they were the 8111118 lan-
guage, and this is hardly four. It will make
upon the face of the dial the landmark of
annihilation, but the changes are so slow and
gradual that it is hardly perceptible.
When we come to compare the two cities,
Tacoma and Rome, what a striking resear-
blance they bear to each other. How nearly
alike is their scenery. One has the beautiful
Alps, the other the grandeur of the Cascades,
each of whose mountains are draped Dwith
a silvercd mantle, from whose summits,if
man could scale them, bould gaze upon the
pure and bright canopy before him. The
dazzling and stretching scenery now lies to
his view, but where is there a pen able to
describe it 1’. Who has ever stood and beheld
the golden sunset here, with her mountains
half enveloped in clouds as if to clothe it in
its parity with the deep-hued atmosphere
surrounding it and a bright sunlight reflect-
ing upon it. Now watch the transparent
scenery. Eye never beheld anything more
beautiful, imagination never invented any-
thing more charming or a poet ever sang
anything more sweetly in verse. The crim-
son hues have turned to purple while the top
of the mountain still reflected from its veil
of whiteness, its golden hues, and the con.
trusting colors as they reflected upon the
glacial hillsides, formed a panorama of splen-
dor that enchained the eye with its bewiteh-
ing fancy and dazzled the brain with its va-
ried scenery.
Such a sunset I never saw in any clime
before and perhaps never shall again. Can
the eastern sunset be more beautiful than
this that poets have scattered its fame and
gorgeous magnificence in verse. Shall not
her rich and fertile plains be pictured in po-
etic style ; shall not her vast treasure of
iridden wealth soon be spread abroad, andher
beautiful avenues that flit before the imagin-
ation soon roll up to be striking realities.
She is bound to grow, and upon the shores
of the northwest you may faiu picture to the
imagination a second Romulus marking out
the future of a splendor of a second Rome.
Do you say, kind reader, that my pen is
extravagant.that I-_am overleaping the bounds
of reason and probability? He who shall
come to the shores twenty years hence will
probably be able to verify this statement.
How much alike are the two cities. One
has the vast Tiber the other the noble Pay-
allup. One has her hillsides and so has the
other. One has the broad bosom of the
ocean at her base and the other the river
that. leads 1.0 it. Each has beautiful scenery
that only an artist can drink in nature’s
sweetness that has been lavished with un-
bounded wealth before him. There is no
llimit to‘the grandeur that lies like the ex-
haustless fountain, for the more you study
the more beautiful wells forth the infinite va-
riety to satisfy his longing and insatiate de-
sire for something new. It is love. Here is
food for the sculptor and painter, and here
is study for the geologist and scientist. Here
are paintings without an artist, and the broad
bosom of nature speaks in undeniable tones
that it ought to have a master. It is waiting
for the hand of man to retouch it, and the
time is not far distant when this section of
the country will be linked with the iron rail
and bring it in direct communication with
the civilized globe.
To him who has seen Rome can picture
upon his return. New Tacoma. They hear a
striking resemblance to each other, and little .
can we tell what one half century will do
for this 0hr pretty and growing village.
Warehouses are going up and ships are being
loaded with wheat for different ports of Eu—
rope. Houses are springing up likehhillocks
in a desert. The growth is so rapid that an-
other large school is just completed and there
are scholars enough to fill it; the stalwart
arm of man is already penetrating the forest.
I-Ier railroads will soon pierce the heart of
every portion of the continent. Then and
not till then will the great unknown north-
west be known, and please go with me in
imagination and take a pleasant trip with
me to .Albany, in Oregon, and see what a
fine country we will pass through, what ex-
tensive forests of timber, what vast plains of
uncultivated land, what magnificent streams
for water power which will give the great
impetus and be the moving impulse towards
making this one of the greatest of countries.
Everything is here to invite the capitalist as
well as the laborer. The loom will soon be
heard upon this coast, and we shall not be
compelled to send back our raw material for
manufactured goods. We have—the material
and all we need is the capital and energy to
carry on this enterprising work, but as the
country becomes known this will come in
time.
No country can become prosperous and
let her money all go out that ought to have
staid home and given employment to home
industry. This is what will and does makes
city permanent and prosperous. Her great
factories will be in operation, and the tide of
emigration will be turned to our shores—to a
rich and inexhaustible country. It stands
out motioniug you to come—you stalwart
young men—to come and carve out a home
for yourself upon some of the beautiful
us. A Nonrnnnn Worm .
prairies or among the waving-forests of tim
\
bcr. Tall, majestic and grand do they stand
lifting themselves in many instances two and
thr‘ee hundred feet in midair without a knot
or a limb, and'to our eastern eye it seems a
pity that such magnificent timber should be
so wantonly destroyed.
Any one who has traveled through the
Dismal Swamp and beheld the dense forests
of J uniper and Cypress trees, can compare
the situation favorably with the ride from
Tacoma to Kalama, 106 miles. This is as
yet a vast forest of timber, and the road
runs through, the heart of it, and as we look
out upon the majestic cedar and the lofty fir
rearing their heads boldly as if to kiss the
dew of heaven as it fell, we wonder if time
will ever clear this and in its stead be dotted
with villages and laid out in fine farms. I
do not doubt but that a few years will bring
about this change as people have been and
are now flocking very rapidly to Tacoma.
The rainfall here for seven months is very
great so that the water would be likely to
continue good the entire year. This seems
to be one great barrier at present. It rains
altogether too much. We have now not
more than one clear,sunshiny day in a week,
and although it does not rain all the rest of
the time it is not very pleasant. You cannot
tell when it is going to rain. The sun may
be shining and‘ in ten minutes it will pour
down in sheets which will wet you through
in a few moments. This is the kind of
weather we get here from the last of Septem-
ber till next April. The climate is not cold
and we have very little snow; the storms
are always warm as the wind is from the
south, and only when it changes ‘into the
north do we feel any severe weather, but
when the wind does change in that direction
we feel it. as much as you do the “ northers ”
in Texas.
The ride from here to Kalama is not very
interesting, as you can see nothing but dense
forests, like riding upon the ocean, soon be-
comes monotonous. From Kslama to Port-
land, forty-five miles, the ride down the far-
famed Columbia is delightful. With her
banks clothed in green pastures, her hill.
sides on whose green surface are feeding
thousands of sheep and cattle, and every-
where can the SiWasli canoe be seen with the
pretty maidens of the forest handling the
paddle with the skill of their stronger sex.
Did you ever seen putty Indian girl, fresh
mm the bloom of the forest, with her dark
and dreamy eye that beams with an intelli-
gencc like the radiant oil that lights heaven’s
eternal sky, with her Wealth of raven hair
that many might envy to poi-seas as itlhangs
in a disheveled suite over her shoulders.
With her graceful form and easy carriage
which gives to her the grace and case equal
to that of the creolcs of Mexico. Still how
soon she loses this beauty! Heavy burdens,
tortures and twists her out Of shape, and the
once pretty Hiawatha has grown to be a
shapcless old woman. Often have I stood
and compared the two, looking at one and
then the other, and there is a greater
difference to be seen than in a gentleman’s
handsome horse and that‘ of a drayman’s old
one, who has been ill-treated and half-starv-
ed. They do not seem to appreciate the fair
sex, and the heavier conditions of life have
fallen to their lot, but as civilization advances
these disgusting and shameful things will be
remedied.
Many beautiful sights can be seen in mov-
ing along this river to the city, but the scene-
ry is nowhere to be compared with that fur-
thur up, where the mountains loom up like
giant spectres before you, towering in splen-
dor and majesty before the eye, causing a
panorama to the vision, creating so strong
an impression that it will ever rest upon thy
memory.
After several hours of pleasant sailing we
arrive at the magnificent city of Portland.
The city proper falls a little short of 18,000,
East Portland has about 2,000, and with
other branches that swell the, population to
about 25,000 souls. This is a very rapidly
growing city and is destined also to become
alarge one, and if the Columbia bar could
be cleared so as not to impede navigation it
would grow much faster than now. She has
many large factories, warehouses for ship-
ping grain, which are, I understand, the
largest upon this continent. Her streets are
very prettily laid out and are quite clean.
Her business portion of the city shows a
great deal of activity and her stores are well
stocked with every variety of goods. She
hasa large country to feed her, and when
the Northern Pacific Railroad is completed
it is going to do wonders for all the towns
and cities upon this coast.
(To be continued)
While a good many criminals escape
through the technicalitles of the law or the
sharp practice of lawyers there is occasion-
ally an innocent man punished. A case
which has excited much interest in the vi-
cinity of its trial has been that of Edward A.
Wagoner, a lawyer and pension agent at .
Ithaca, N. Y., who was convicted last week
at Syracuse and sentenced to the penitentary
for one year. He was charged with wrong-
fully disposing of pension money belonging
to one Robinson. All through the trial he
persisted that he was innocent and that he
held a power of attorney from Robinson but
had last it. Much sympathy was expressed
for the accused who had always home an
honorable reputation and was well connected
socially. After thejury had founl him guil-
ty W agener, when asked if he had anythirg
to say why sentence should not be pronounc-
ed. responded as follows: ’
This has failed 5 1 suddenly and unexpect-
edly upon me that lbavc nothing to say now
although I have much in my mind to say.
I thank you for the impartial charge you
gave to the jury and I have no doubt but
what the jury have acted conscientiously in
rendering their verdict, but it is so unexpec-
ted thatI am greatlyastonishcd at the ver-
dict that they havc rendered.
I am, of course, at the mercy of the court.
and I ask for the sake of my wife and baby
—for the sake of my_poor crippled father,
and my mother, that you will pass as light a
sentence upon me as you can consistently
with the facts presented on my case. My
wife has no means of support, and should I
be imprisoned I don’t know what would
become of her and my child, and for that
reason I beg that the court will impose a
fine, if the fine can possibly be paid by my
friends, and not to imprison me. God knows
that the punishment is enough to stand here
convicted. I have nothing to say as to the
merits of the case. ' I have been convicted of
this charge, and now desire that you will deal
with me as leniently as possible.
The very next day after his sentence the
missing power of attorney was found between
the leaves of a blank ledger in Wagener’s
office in Ithaca, and steps are now in progress
to secure a new trial, which will undoubtedly
be granted and will result in an acquittal as
the only point in the former trial was as to
the authority of the accused to dispose of the
money which he had collected.

Some experiments were lately ma'

der. Upon contact with the flames,the
der produces heavy fumes in such
whelining quantities as to completely stifle
the fire. A few boxes were thrown into a
burning naptha and. petroleum store, and the
doors and shutters were securely closed. In
two hours the store was opened and found to
be filled with the dense fumes from the pow-
der, but entirely free from fire. The powder
is expensive, but, as is wisely remarked. 110‘

Considering the sense of pain in fishes, Mr.
C. S. Bentley concludes that the peculiar ner-
vous system and very small perceptive brain
of a fish, together with the fact of its being
cold-blooded. precludes it from being highly
sensitive to pain. This view is extensively
corroborated. .
Among the many practical applications of
Faure’s electrical accumulators suggested, is
that of using them for utilizing the waste of
water power duringthe hours when such
power is not employed in ordinary work, as
at night, etc. In many localities waste ener-
gy might be stored up in this way to adven-
age.
Observations as to fuel consumed have
been made on locomotives of the Hanover
andBremen railway, showing among other
results, that the locomotives are sometimes
run with a loss of only fifteen or twenty per
cent. of heat up chimney.
Sea water contains about two per cent. of
salt, while the water of Great Salt Lakebas
twenty-two per cent.
The earth seems destined soon to lose its

The Austrian Society of Engineers has
had its attention called to a new application
of electricity in the form of an underground
railway for the transmission of mails. The
locomotive and train can be constructed of
any convenient small size, and will perform
the same service for any distance which the
pneumatic tube will perform for short dis-
tances. The locomotive will require no so-
companying attendant, as, the battery or
motive power not being on the locomotive. it
can be guided and controlled from a station-
ary point.
“From the rarity,” says Sir John Lub~
beck, “ and in many cases the entire absence,
of. reference to blue in ancient literature,
Geiger—adopting and extending asuggestion
thrown out by Mr. Gladstone—has maintain-
ed that, even as recently as the time of Ho-
mer, our ancestors were blue-blind. Though
for my part I am unable to adopt this view,
it is certainly very remarkable that neither
the ‘Rigueda,’ which consists almost entire-
ly of hymns toheaven, nor the fZendauves-
ta,’ the Bible of the Parsees or fire-worship-
pers, nor the Old Testament. nor the He-
meric poems ever allude to the sky as being
blue.
The great telescope—perhaps the largest
equatorial telescope in the world—now being

A veteran Swiss watchmaker claims to
have devised a means of keeping watches
running for years without winding up. A
sealed box containing two watches was
placed in the keeping of the municipal su-
thorities of Vouvry on the 19th of January.
1879. The box has just been opened; and
the watches were found going.
The discovery of a new island off the coast

Great accuracy is necessary in the cori- V
struction of standard weights, and numerous
precautions against error are essential in
making final comparisons. Some of these
have been described. by Messrs. Deville and
Mascart. A balance should never be opened
during the long series of operations upon
which the comparison of two weights is
based. Its cage, composed of two envelopes
of glass, bordered with cloth, should be
guarded from the external air, which would
change the hydrometric state of the interior
and would introduce dust. The particles of
dust notch the knife edges and change the
velvet linings of the weight boxes into a
material comparable 'to emery paper. Air
may be forced into the interior at the rate of
four or five quarts per hour, having been
first freed from dust by filtering through cot-
ton and dried by chloride of potassium. The
substance which seems to produce the least
wear on alloys of platinum and iridium is
ivory, which has the further advantage of
resisting moisture and other atmospheric in-
fluences. Standard weights should, there-
fore, be kept in glass cylinders, with ivory
caps at top and bottom.
M. Dogiel’s recent researches show that
music affects the circulation and respiration
of animals as well as of human beings.
A Very Needful Invention,
The facts are these: Mr. Skid’s neighbor
kept a goat and that goat had often get at Mr.
Skid and batted him two rods, end over end,
and he hated the goat profusely. But the
neighbor wouldn’t. keep the goat shut up,and
so Skid invented a machine to slay the goat. It
was in the form of a man bending down to
pick up his hat, but in the body wuss spring
of tremendous power. From the hip pocket
of the figure waved a red handkerchief that
was the target to draw the goat. When he
batted it the spring would fly and throw the
goat a big distance. The machine was gotten
up in very elaborate style and looked just like
a man. It was perfect enough to deceive any
goat. And it cost Skid $74. But he didn’t
begrudge the money so long as it fetched the
goat. And he took the machine and put it ,
out in his front yard where the goat could ’
see it, and then he retired to his house and
waited to see the fun. He waited about two
hours, and then his son came in and told him
that the goat had swallowed an old h00p-
skirt the night before and it had get tangled
in his bowels and slain him. And of course
Skid was terribly mad. , But the machine
was not wholly wasted for the boy took it
and put it on the outside of a circus tent so
it looked like a man just starting to crawl
under, and a policeman who saw it ran and
hit with his club and was surprisedto see the
club fly forty feet into the air, while his arm
ached like fury, and then a stalwart circus‘
man ran up and kicked the thing and was
picked up twenty feet away with his leg
broken in two places. And when he got
over his surprise be said he’d give that man a
season ticket if he‘d tell how he did it,u he'd
like to work the same racket on'tlie old man
of the girl he was courting. But the machine
couldn’t be found, the boy having, in the ex-
citement taken it home. He is going to sell
it to a country editor. lobe pointed out n
