Death Of Prof, Nnpes.

Practical Science--and especially Chemistry and
Geology as applied to Agricuiurc-has lost useful
aud Jealous champion in JAMES j. MArEs, who
died yesterday, in this his native city, not having
quite attained 60 years Of age, having been born on
the nth of May, 1896.
Prof. Mapes was 4. born chemist, having manu-.
factured illuminating gas as an experiment when
but eight years of agc--gas being then scarcely
known. Having qualified himself by years OF
clcrkship, he became a merchant when but twenty
one, and was many years extensively involved
in trade and in sugar-rcfning, in which he
ultimately failed. Meantime as well as since, he
gave much attention TO the fine arts, and achieved
measurable success in drawing, engraving and
painting. Appointed Professor of Chemistry and
Natural Philosophy in the National Academy of
Design, he gave before it very able course OF ec-
lures on the Chemistry of Colors. He was work
ing member of many kindred societies in this city,
and All honorary member of several of the most
eminent in Europe. He invented several now pro-
cesses in sugar-making and refining some Of which
are still in use, as we'll other useful processes and
instruments.
Nearly twenty years ago, when oycriaken by CON-
mcrcial reverses, he went out into New-Jcrsey,
three miles from Newark, and bought small farm
which has ever since been his home save in Winter.
Here he applied his chemical knowledge to Agri-
culture with signal and bencicent success. We
believe that farm has since produced more value
and yielded more profit than any cGuol number ol
acres devoted to general hush.ndry in the state.
And there Is not farmer IN America who might

The Government yesterday presented to the
Senate voluminous papers relative to the emi
grafton from the Rebel States to Mexico, and
the schemes of Gwin and Maury. The papers
begin with letter from Senior Romero calling
Mr.. Stewards attention TO the perfect under
standing between Vidaurr and Magruder, to
the efforts made to promote emigration from
the United States to Mexico and TO the in
tended cession Of several Mexican States to
France. In a subsequent letter, Seiior Ro-
nero adduces proofs that tho Imperialist
authorities were instructed to aid the
Rebels in every possible way, and that both
France and Maximlian took a great interest in
the scheme of DIR. Gwin. The dispatches of
Mr.. Seward to our Minister in Paris bring the
facts adduced by Senior Romero to the know-
edge of the French Government, speak OF the
intense desire of the American people TO see
the French troops withdrawn from Mexico, and
instruct the Minister to ascertain the Emperor
Nspoleon's views on this point.
Acting Secretary Of State Hunter informed
the House, in reply to recent resolution, that
the Department has no information concerning
the kidnapping Of the child Of an American
lady by Maximilisn which it deemed advisable
to make public at this time.

Prof. Mapes soon established The Wor king
Fdrmer-the most elaborate and scientific OF cheap
American periodicals devoted to Agriculture, and
in many respects the best. Its rivals give recipes;
The Farmer so long as he controlled it, labored b
nculcate principles and to ground its readers sodE
in Agriculture as science. And few men have
delivered more addresses at Agricultural Fairs, or
done more lasting good by them. We honor him
that he never shrunk from declaring the truth that
our average Agriculture is rude to the verge Of
barbarism, and that treble the labor now devoted
to each arabic acre would produce qusdruple our
present crops. Deep blowing, draining and heavy
manuring had no abler or more earnest champion
than James j. Mapcs.
Prof. Mapes was essentiallya genius, and was
not without the errors of genius; but nov that he
is Dead we believe it will be generally felt and &C
knowlodged that American Agriculture owes as
much to him as to any man who lives or has ever
lived. He leaves, We understand, widow and
three daughters to mourn one of the kindest OF nus
bands and fathers.
