The Death Of Professor Agassiz.

Prof. Louis Agassiz departed this life at
Cambridge, Massachusetts,, on Sunday last
l4th inst, at 10i o'clock P. NJ. With his
death great light has gone out in the
scientific world, and no one is left te take
his place. The utter disregard of money
and the simple life of the great man may
DO better understood when the fact is men,
toned that the salary of his professorship
was only $500. Agassiz is the father of
the glaciel theory of the existence in geol-
ogic eras of vast ice sheet which covered
the continents thousands of feet in thick
ness and left it's records in the scratched
and ground rocks.
In 1916 Prof. Agassiz came to this coun-
try, and shortly afterward identified him
self with its scientific interests by assisting
in the labors of the Coast Survey. The
next year he accepted the chair of zoology
and geology at Harvard, and thenceforlh
spoke of himself, and was proud to be
considered, as an American. He made a
series of scientific expeditions in subse-
quent years, along the coast, and to differ
emf localities on the lakes and rivers and
among the mountains of the United States,
and his success as a lecturer at intervals in
our great cities gave an impulse to science
in this country which it had never be-
fore received. His expeditions to Lake
Superior in 1S4S, and to the Florida reefs
in 1850, produced most valuable results
A Boston merchant in 1865 betrayed the
expenses of the celebrated expedition to
the Amazon region, in the course of which
he assembled that great river to the from
tiers of Peru. 1t was upon this expedi-
ton that Prof. AgassiZ saw and described
the celebrated walking fiSh''-a fish
which at certain seasons uses certain spin
Gus fins as legs, and actually walks up the
river bank. dryshod. An immense quant-
ty of valuable specimens for the museum
at Cambridge, and large accessons to zoo-
ogical knowledge accrued from this expe-
dition. The Edinburgh and Dublin Uni
versity conferred their degrees of LII. d.
upon him. He was made Professor of 10
ology and Geology at Cambridge in the
scientific school founded by MIR. Abbott
Lawrence, Professor of Comparative Anat-
omy in the Medical College of Charleston,
S. G. and non resident Professor in Cor
nell University in this State. He was IA
member of the French Academy of Sci
ences; of the Royal Society of London,
and of our own National Academy of Sci
ences; he held the Monthyon prize and the
Culver prize from the Paris Academy; the
Wollaston medal from the Geological
Society of London and tho medal of merit
from the King of Prussia.
He added to his other enterprises last

THE ROADS.

The remarks in our last issue on this
subject have served to agitate it, and some
suggestions have been made in favor of
holding public, district meeting or meet
ings among the farmers in the county to
devise system for road mending that
would remedy the existing evils, and petit
ton the Legislature for revision of the
present road laws. The impracticability
of this idea will be evident to every one
who will give the matter serious thought
Farmers meetings to devise means for
improving their condition is something so
entirely new to the majority of our farm
ers, that the bare suggestion of such a
movement, would sound to them like the
veriest utopian conception. Very few of
them have any idea of what they should
have to better their condition. We may
remark here, aside from any supposable
plan that might be devised that any and
all plans that contemplate the county
hiring men by the day to work on the
roads will be dismal failure. The con-
tract plan is the only plan that ever has
been adopted for doing public work which
has been successful. All of our railroads,
turnpikes, canals, etc, are made by parties
who contract to do certain stipulated
amount of work according to specific
plan or agreement for a definite sum of
money, within a given time. This is the
plan adopted by the county to have its
bridges and public buildings constructed,
and it pretty generally gets fair work done
for the money.
No specific system with the necessary de-
tails can be devised by the Legislature
which will answer the best purpose in all
parts of the State. A general law might
easily be enacted, however, prescribing the
duties of the County Commissioners, en-
towering them to take charge of the roads
and prescribe rules and regulations for
making and mending the roads in their re-
spective counties. And if each district
were taxed to make and mend the roads
within its bounds, great saving would be
made in the tax, and fully one-fourth of
the useless by-roads which were devised
for jobs would be closed up.
Since the above has been in type we
have received the following letter from a
public spirited citizen. We have no au.
thority to call such meeting as suggested.
If there was some kind of Farmers
County Association in existence such bust
ness could be managed very properly and
effectively:
"Do you not think it would be wise to
call primary meetings in the different Dis
tricts for the purpose of electing delegates
to County Convention to consider the
propriety of making change in our road
system? l think If such a meeting were
called irrespective of party and adopt
something to submit to our Senator and
Delegates, much good would result The
Road System as it is could be much i'm
proved with less expense to the county.
After consulting with prominent men las
you have the opportunity of seeing such
men in Court tines would it not be as
we'll to publish a call for primary meet
ings?"
