MAJ 7 If,no6xU NJ o..

Mag. j. MdYShdN 1ucCue:
DEAR SIR-I have made a
qualitative analysis of the two specimens of
stone you gave me: the one, the regular litho-
graphic stone from Prussia; and the other spec
linen ftom Rock bridge county-from the lands
Of ID. G. g. Brady, | beiieve--aBd supposed to
be similar to the Prussian stone | find these
specimens to be nearly Identical in chemical
compost ion and physical properties
The specific gravity of the Prnssian stone is
2 go; that Of the specimen from r ok bridge is
z 6S Both specimens are com petey soluble
IN hydrochloric acid, with active effcrve~cence
and evolution OF carbonic acid gas. Ifthe acid
solution be greatly diluted and a solution of OK
aiate of ammonia be added. copious precipi-
tate of oratate of lime is thrown down; and
this in turn is augmented by the addition of
ammonia, or completely re-dissoived by the ad-
ditiOn of hydrochloric acid In excess. Both
specimens are therefore carbonate of lime.
Their identity is also maintained in the pro-
cess of clearage; both specimens being disposed
in somewhat of laminated manner and pos
sessed OF considerable degree of tenacity.-
With the aid of glass of very moderate pow
er. or even with the unaided eye, it will be seen
that they are the same 10 molecular structure !;
being of very hne grain, and susceptible OF ia
king very fine polish.
You are aware that there exists every variety
of carbonate of lime, from the foest Italian
marble and the beautiful crystalized carbonate
down to the coarse AID unsightly blue aud gray
limestone of our cliffs; and each variety very
valuable in its sphere.
doubt not but that the specimen from Rock
bridge will prove to be the best photographic
stone; possibly the workers on these stones Can
alone determine this matter out, be that as it
may, any stone possessing these peculiar prop
ertles of structure, polish. clearage, &c., must
be very valuable for some purpose.
Yours, Very Respectfully.

In two recent visits to your town

some lads of II, and one or two bearded, be-
whiskered men, stalking In from the country,
with their guns and strings of robins, varying

indignation at the brutes, for l did not know
them or desire to know them, except to have
seen them punished. to forfeiture at least of
their guns, and ten days, was going to say, in
the chain-gang. It would be better, perhaps,
if they could be bound for year or two to an
intelligent farmer in the country, for their vic
tuals and clothes, where they could have the
opportunity to study the habits of the birds.
and to learn how important part Providence
has caused them to play, in preserving the

pend for food Let them hunt up late No.

Within few weeks past, a COM

Shanpondale, Jefferson county, impressed with
the belief that Kansas presented stronger ia-
ducements than their own beautiful part of the
Valley had chartered car to carry them to
their desruaiion. l. they have gone how soon
can their places loved, respected and known
as they doubtless were-be filed by those who
come after them, who, if clever. are not or ,oill
not be knoon, and years must elapse before they
can, If ever, fill the places of the loved and
lost? What is to stop this drain of our very
life blood? Echo.
Yes there is way. Sell cheap farms, that
don't pay taxes now, give to our poor boys and
encourage and sustain them and all others, in
home enterprises. Elevate the standard of ag-
ricultural labor and honor the mechanic arts,
and the thing is done. More are coming 10
than going out, and this ''pan" will bring back
those who have gone, and ''stop this drain Of
our very life-blood." Will the writer organize

protection, encouragement and assistance of
