Modern piseoverv.

Bayard Taylor, the celebrated traveller,
thus sums up the results Of modern dis
coveries:
"Within the last twenty-five years, all
the principal features Of the geography of
our own vast interior regions have been
accurately determined; tie great fields OF
Central Asia have been traversed in VIZ
rious directions, from Bokhara aad Oxus
to the Chinese wall; the halfknown river
systems Of South America have been ex-
plored and surveyed; the icy continent
around the Southern Pole has been dis
covered; the Northwest Passage--the az
MS futauS Of nearly two centuries--;s at
last found; the Dead Sea is stripped Of its
fabulous terrors; the course Of the Niger is
no longer a myth, and the sublime secret
Of the Nile is almost wrested from his
keeping; the Mountains Of the Moon,
sought for two thousand years, have been
beheld by Caucasian eye, an English
steamer has assembled the Chabba TO the
frontiers Of the great kingdom Of Bomeo;
Leichardt and Stuart have penetrated the
wilderness of Australia; the Russians have
descended from lrkoutsk to the mouth of
the Amoor; tile antiquated walls of Chi
nese prejudice have been cracked, and are
fast tumb.ing down, and the canvass
screens which surround Japan have been
cut by the sharp edge Of American enter
prise. Such are the principal results Of
modern exploration. What quarter Of a
century since the form Of the earth and the
boundaries of its land and water were known,
can exhibit such list Of achieyementsg

Forests attract rain; country stripped
Of its forests is likely to suffer from draught.
A canal from the Nile to the Red Sea
was once opened and kept open for many
years.
James Watt, in letter written in 1870,
described and sketched spiral oar OF
screw propeller.
The greatest range which can be obtain
ed from gun is when the piece s inclined
at an angle of 45o.
Tie feed water Of boilers acquires gai-
vanic effect in passing through the upper
tubes Of surface condensers.
Lead and zinc are greatly expanded by
heat-~the latter metal expands nearly twice
and ahalf more than wrought iron under
equal temperature.
The nearest Of the brightest stars IA the
southern hemisphere is at twenty-one bill
lions Of miles diStance, and its light will re-
quire three years aud a quarter to reach us.
The quantity Of soar light is more than
100000 times chat Of the fuli-lnoon, that
is, if the armament held 100000 full
moons, their united splendor would be in
ferior to that Of the sun.
The fossil floras If France, England.
Germany DC, exhibit ferns nearly fifty feet
high with branches nearly feet in circum-
ferance, proving that Europe possessed ut
one time a very high range Of temperature.
The ordinary burden Of camel is $50
pounds. With this load he will travel at
about two miles an hour for from is to is
hours per day, continuing this service for
weeks. with only one pound Of food and
pint Of water daily.
It is found that the prairie-stone, exist
ing in such large quantities Just back Of
Chicago, will make gas as we'll and as free
y as the best coal, yielding fifty per cent.

as good lime as car he foond anywhere.
The longest railway dsGbridge ~ the
world was recently completed over the ILL.,
nois river, on the line of the Loganspcrt,
Peoria and Burlington railway, at Peoria,
Illinois. The draw is 600 feet long The
masonry, 1850 cubic yards, was completed
in nine weeks. just above the bridge is
carriage bridge with draw Of 2o3 feet.
Zinc nails are now extensively employed
in the manufacture of boots and shoes, in
place Of wood or iron. 1t is said that zine
nails are also substituted for sewing in la
dies slippers. An iron last is employed,
and the nails, on being driven in, strike the
last and become headed or riveted on the
inside, thus forming a very secure fastep-

DIsAPPoINTMENTANp SUccEss.-When
poor Ednu Kean was acting in barns to
country pumpkins, barely finding bread for
his wife and child, he was just as great a
genius as when he was crowding Drnry
Lane. When Brougham presided In the
House of Lords, he was not bit better or
greater than when he hung about in the
Parliament House at Edinburgh, briefiess
and suspected junior barrister. When all
London crowded to see the hppotamus,
he was just the animal be was two years
later, when no one took the trouble Of
looking at him. And when George Ste
phenson died, amid the applause and
gratitude of every Intelligent man IN
England, he was the same man, main

the country now, as such institutions did in
1871 and 1916.
There is now more specie in the country
than ever before. But if divided per capt.
ia, it may be doubted whether there is
more per head, though il is gold now in
stead of silver. But allowing there is more
per head, yet the increase of business has
more than equalled the increase of specie,
and, therefore demands an increased circu-
latioH.
The increase of the expense of our gov
erpment not only indicates an increase of
population, but the increase of the business
of that population, and if bank with a
capital of $50 1000, 900 was needed in 1916,
one of one hundred million at least, is now
demanded, and bank with such a capital,
with branches in every principal CONNER
cial city in the union would find stock-hold-
ers at once, who would pay forit in gold.
and if necessary. to inspire the public with
confidence in its souhsiness, government
stocks could be deposited in the national
treasury, to the same amount, pledged for
the redemption of the bills. These stocks
drawing interest to the owners, would be
as great source of profit to Il EN- while
thus deposited, as they would # not thus
deposited, so that such a deposit would be
no loss.
Such bank would regulate and control
all State Banks and require them to pay
specie. or close up, and for local purposes
such specie paying State Banks would be
as useful as the national one. The bills Of
such State Banks would be received in he
national one, which would give drafts on
other branches, at the former rate of ex-
change, one half of Que per cent. This
would save the country and nothing else
will. OF near one hundred business men
with whom | have conyersed on this sub
lect within few weeks, not one has dis
sented from this view; and the hope is free
ly expressed that Congress, at its extra ses-
sion, on the state of the country, will adopt
the measure,

THE KING OF DAEoMEy's AMAZON
GUARDS Attached to the King Of Daho-
mey's army, there is a troop called "The
Amazon Guards" The West African
Herald thus describes them: The Amazon
Guards, as they have sometimes been styled
are the most extraordinary troops that we
have ever heard OF read Of. They are
5000 in number, all females, and display
such degree Of ferocious bloodthirstiness
and hardihood as to bear a greater resenl-
blance to host Of mad tigresses than hui
man creatures. They utterly despise death
they show no mercy to any living being IN
war; they are mad alter blood, and seem
not to know what fear means. They are
in fact, troop # devils 50 to speak, whose
hideous wildness ufmMmer,and the savage
madness Of whose deneanor in times OF eA-
element are 50 appalling and inhuman as
to have led many well-jadging persons 70
the opinion that these dreadful creatures
are periodically subjected to the influence Of
some species OF drug which has this effect.
The dress of the Amazon consists Of pair
of loose trousers an upper garment cover
inc the breast, ald cap. They ere armed
with gun, knives and daggers; some have
blunderbusses, others long elephant guns
while tile remainder carry the ordiuasy
musket. In their military exercises they
display good discipline. astiellas woildeg-
full dexterity and agility.

assigned according to the date of captains
commissions, as follows:
Company A on the right Of the line
Fox Lake Citizens Guard. Capt. Stephens
Company B on the left-La Crosse Light

company G. Portage Light Guard, Capt.
Mansfield; company H, Randall Guard,
Capt. Randolph; company |, Miners

When the regiment is thrown int five
divisions, the first is commanded by Capt.
Stevens, the second by Capt. Ely, the third
by Capt. Mckee, the fourth by Capt.
Bouck, and the fifth by Capt Colwell.
There is some dissatisfaction about this
arrangement, which, Of course, does not
all depend on the relative merits Of the
companies.

Arizona Seeded.

A California exchange thus announces
the secession of Arizona:
Arizona has seeded! Tell it 70 Gath !:
Arizona has seeded! Publish it in AS
Gallon! Let all mankind know it. Let the
fugitives from justice be conforted Just
think Of it; honorable Phil. Herbert and
honorable Ned McGowan have gone over
to the Philistines, and taken Arizona with
them, bodily
five could get rid OF that nondescript
in that easy way, what happy consum-
nation it would be; for the Lord surely
intended it as an affection to whatever ma
ton might possess it. The malediction of
the Almighty is stamped upon its every
feature, 1t is accursed Of God and cursed
of men, and cursed with cursed men. He
is the poorest devil who owns the largest
pumber Of acres, and an object Of commits
seration II he dwells thereon. The soil.
(no it isn't soil, nor is it earth, nor is it
ground, nor is it land,) the superficies Of
this vulgar fraction of the earth, is nothing
but vast spread out Of sand, and alkaline
ashes, Il won't grow decent snakes, but
does make out, ia a mysterious way, to
yield centipedes and tarantulas, with a
small sprinklipg Of gaunt, sIab-sided cay
otes. 1t is nature unnatural, in perfect dis.
gust with herself. The thing is not even
fit for road; an empty wagon is dead
pull on dead level, for a six mule team.
Water is something you thirst for, but in
that yillaipous region, you find it not. We
journeyed once over this self same desert,
packing Oh alter and our grub, and bar
ley for our mule. A solitary crow follow
ed us over the whole route, camping with
us every night. The sagacious bird doubt
less made certain Of prize in our carcass
and that of our long suffering animal, and
caw'd his disappointment, as well as aston
ishment when he saw us safely over the
border. The people have hitherto lived on
the pickings at the Overland Stage stations
and Government contracts; and, now that
the stages are removed, it requires only the
withdrawal Of the troops, TO dry up the
whole concern. Arizo will be a bowliag
wilderness, if anything be left to hoaol.
Even now, the cayotes are SO poor that
they can't bark.
We congratulate jeff. Davis on his ac-
QUESTION, not only of territory, but Of pop
u'ation. Arizona is country that cannot,
now, be aaisrepresented; the bigger the ras-
cal the truer the exponent Ned and Phil.
-ecce signum! They were born to be
famous; they are bound to be leaders in
Jcff's Congress. Of course, in this new
nation, where the circus* is a civiIizer, and
the clown hero, Ned and Phil, must needs
be distinguished. BY the way, we are
told that Lieut.. Mdary says he "inycnted
Arizona" but Ned and Phil. have robbed
him Of the patent right. The patent was
granted on the ground, that neither God
nor man eyer before invented anything like
it."
