Partisan typographers, although their
position may be snubbed and ridiculed
by many strangers, totally ignorant of
their ability, talent and general ca
pacityy form, nevertheless, one Of the
most learned and able classes Of the
literature-loving capital, and it requires
more than the simple knowledge of
type-setting and composing to enable a
typographer % obtain good situation
on some leading journal or to be admit
ted as member of the Typographical
Society, which, i'm its way, is exceed
ingly powerful and exerts a boundless
influence over the entire Partisan press.

or less gifted with highly cultivated, ar

PROCLAMATION.
bounteous season has again enabled the
husbandmen to garner the fruit of success
ful toll. Industry has beeQ generally we'll
rewarded. We are at peace with all nations ;
tranquility with few exceptions prevails at
home. Within the past year we have in the
main been free from ills which elsewhere
have affected our kind. If some of us have
had calamities, there should be occasion for
sympathy with the sufferers, resignation on
their part to the will of the Most High, and
rejoicing by the many who have been more
favored. Therefore recommend that Thurs
day, the 3Oth day of November next, the
people meet in their respective places of
worship, there to make the usual &C knowl-
edgements to Almighty God for the blessings
he has conferred upon them, in their merci-
ful exemption from evils, and invoke His
protection and kindness for their less fortu-
nate brethren whom, in His wisdom, he has
deemed 1T best to chastise. In witness
WI ereof, have hereunto set my hand and
caused the seal of State to be affixed
Done at the city of Washington this TWEEN
ty-elghth day of October, in the year OF our
Lord, one thousand eight hundred and sew

Sonnet .tirsg to tlonsid4r..

The following interesting facts are
gwen us by a gentleman connected with
The office Of one Of The great western
railroads. He says that almostlall OF the
pnblic buildings and the elegant blocks
of stores in The business partof Chicago
caught fire from the roofs CT the cornices.
And it is .orthy Of the most serious
consideration in rebuilding. the city that
nearly all these buildings had wood cor
Mices and, roofs Of tar ard gravel. Even
the Court House, Nhich was fifteen years
! i'm building, had this tar and gravel
roof, and its done was of wo0d. One of
the elevators cs the Illinois Central
Railroad, owned by j. & L. Bucking-
ham. although ncas another elevator
with tar and graSel roof which was
bur1sd, and although exposed to show
ers Of burning cinders, was protected
by It's slate roof and was saved.
This gentleman says that the fire has
ts.aght the city lesson in building
which will not be forgotten. The build
ings erected largely of limestone blocks
were found TO crunble away beneath
the fierce heat like bundles of charred
paper, and this stone will be abandoned
The granite, and hard stone from
Cleveland and Lake Superior were found
to resist the ire better and longer than
any oiher-bettcr far than iron, which
in many cases literally melted and fell
beneath the weight above it. The nine
inch partition wall so prevalent in the
city will be abandoned, and the twelve
and sixteen.inch take its place. Heavy
fire-proof vaults of stone will be bull
= under ground. The architects of Chi
cago have been greatly at fault in regard
to the tarred and gravel roofs, anc
henceforth thick, heavy tin or slate will
take its place. The city will have a soil
dity of building it has never known be
fore. Except some recent costly ed fees

The Upper YellOwstOue-A Wonderful
Country.

From letter just received by Prof
Henry, Secretary OF the Smithsonian
Institute, from III. w Elliot, artist OF
Hayden's exploring expedition, we make
the following extracts
| now turn to the wonderful falls,
though conscious of my inability to pic
ture them. They are a broad, evenly
deep sheet of clear ice water, leaping
dewn at one bound from its ledge four
hundred and fifty feet, unbroken by any
rocky point or cascade turning a snowy
column, the waters pausing in the pool
where they alight for Il moment, as if
stunned and taking breath before they
rush headlong away down the deep
windings of the canon. The spray and
mist rise hundred feet in clouds and
columns above the pool, and by their
condensation and precipitation have
reared up quite II beautiful grass plot
way town there on the falls. Nowhere
else below, with thc exception ct the
marginals of the springs in few cases,
does anything appear to grow on the
bare hot face of the rocks. The river mt
the brink of the fall is about ninety feet
in width, and aboat five feet deep at this
season of the year. Less than half a
mile above are the Upper Falls, one
hundred ana fifty feet high, and very
handsome. From the falls OH our way
to the lake we passed over an extremely
interesting region, intersPersed with
boiling sulphur springs and muddy
bHbble pots or putfs. one OF these mud
springs boils up at intervals of every
five or six hours, playing out the semi
fluid contents OF its crater to IL height of
thirteen to twenty-five feet from ten to
twenty minutes.
The wonderful geysers OF the fire hole
basin, at the headwaters of the Madison
in magnitude and extent Of area reduce
those Of Iceland to- utter significance. L
have stood by crater, and have seen
a column of hot (boiling) water SIN feet
in diameter, ascend With a single boundy
vertically, to height Of 20O'feet-pause-
there for an instant, and fall to its slici-
fed basin in Thousand watery streams,
and a iRillion prismatic drops This was
repeated ten or tiftceI minutes, then all
would be quiet the water of the cistern
becomes as still as that of mill pond,
and apparently as inactive. This geyser,
which i one Of MANI, we named the
Grand. It plays at irregular Intervals Of
"A to 80 hours, for from 10 to 20 min
utes. Another, named 10y Deane '1Od
Faithful, plays at intervals at only an 4
hour apart, throwing up an Immense
steady column to an elevation OF 1909
feet. In this geyser legion, which will
more than cover an area OF ten miles

Preservation Of Running Gear.

The amount Of loss occasioned each
year, by neglect to KEGS the axles of
wagons creased and bearings of machin-
cry we'll oiled, is enormous, and in
this day Of various and expensive farm
machinery, very serious loss even to
those who keep the bearings tolerably
well oiled. Very few do 50 in the most
perfect manner.
According to experiments made in
France the friction Of wooden surfaces
rubbing on wood amounted to from
One-quarter to one-half of the force en-
ployed. The friction Of metal on wood
was something less, while with metal
on metal surfaces the friction was one.
fifth to one-seventh. With lard applied
to wood on wood, the friction was only
one tenth to one-twenty -eighth of the
power required to move the surfaces.
Metal on metal had the friction reduced
to one-half of what it was before. Of
the several substances used for cast iron
on cast iron, lard and black lead gave
the least friction.
The best lubrlcator for wrought iron
axles we have found to be pure oil and
for the patent OF cast arm, oil or lard
and black lead. One Of the greatest
causes OF the wearing out of machinery
is from dust and grit worked into the
journals and bearings, and this is es-
peciaily true of fast turning gears, as
reapers, mowers, threshers, etc. All
bearings should often be wiped clean
before oiling, and every possible means
used to protect them from dirt and
grit. Good wagoners always wipe the
axle before oiling, but very few wipe
the borea. This is easily done by having
a spindling piece shaved to fit. Cover
it with cloth and run it through the
hub and turn it about therein before
greasing. 1t will keep your wheels
true FOR a long time, and save much
vexation and labor for the team.
The principle reason why farm ma
chinery last so much longer with some
farmers than with others, is from care
in oiling for a careful oiler is pretty
sure to be careful in other MASTERS be-
side. Bearings, from the long continued
use OF gummy lubricators, cften come
to consume in more friction than dry
surfaces. When they become 50, they
should be cleaned with Kerosene or
turpentine and thereafter oiled only
with fatty matter free from gum
