In addition to these there are Al, 900
spaces designed to go between the
words.
From the above any one can see
about the proportion of letters used in
in ordinary writing For instance,
while we use twelve thousand of the
letter e, we need but two hundred of
the letter 2. Among the letters used
most are a, e, /, o, h, n, +, S, and t, and
those used least are j, q, X, and T. OF
the points, the comma is the most re-
quired, the period next, and the semi
colon and more rarely the colon. When
ever font of type is ordered of any
size from five to twenty five thousand
pounds the proportions of different let
tiers sent are according to the above
table.-Bridgeport Stdadard.

WATER AS A CHIsEL. Nothing can
convey more impressive idea of the
powers of water as general agent than
the wonderful canons of Mexico, Texas,
and the Rocky Mountains, where the
torrents may be seen rushing along,
through the incisions it has cut for it
self in the hard rock, at depth of
several thousand feet, between perpen-
dicular walls. The greatest of these
canons, that of Colorado, is 29S miles
in length, and its sides rise perpendicu-
larry to height of 5000 or 1000 feet.

A Singular Remedy for RattIesnake
Bites.

A writer in the Chicago Tribune says
Referring to the communication in
the Tribune of this date, upon the
efficacy of snake-vrus as an antidote
for hydrophobia, permit me to say, for
the possible benefit of some unfortu.
nate, that | recall conversation which
L had with an old frontiersman in Texas,
two years ago, which has some bearing
upon this subject.
AS an agent of the PostOtlice Depart
ment, L was in company with q Mr..
Thomas, well-known resident and
large planter near Fort Concho He
informed me that it was well known
among the frontiersmen and Indians
that the gall of "a rattlesnake, taken into
the stomach Immediately after being
bitten by that reptile, was sure cure
for the bite. AS II measure of precau-
tion-being exposed to attacks from this
deadly creature, which abound in that
section, he dissected a rattlesnake, and
carefully preserved the gall of the crea-
ture III Il small bottle. In the course of
harvesting, young man in his employ
was bitten bya rattlesnake, and, almost
instantly, was thrown int paroxysms of
great pain, and began to show the
usual signs of virulent poison. Mr..
Thomas ran for his antidote, mixed the
gall of the reptile in half a glass of wa.
ter, and, by dint of great persuasion,
got the patient TO swallow it. He was,
at the time, i'll great agony, the wound
and adjacent parts being swollen, and
turning purple. The effect of this sim
gular potion was almost instantaneous.
The young man became suddenly quiet,
and very soon declared the great pain
had ceased. He recovered from the
effect of the bite, and soon after returned
to duty as If nothing had happened.

THE largest corset factory in the
world is that of the United States
Corset Company, in Massachusetts,
having capacity for producing 600 per
day. The process of manufacture is
peculiar. When the cores are weaving,
the filing is required only in one-sixth
the width of the fabric, the balance
working blank and little power being
used then at once pocket for a bone
must be made, requiring double the
power. These looms obviate the diff
culties attending such variation.

Type.

Type is sold in "fonts," the number
of letters varying, however, very largely.
Take, for instance, font" contain
ing, say, 10000 different types, and
the proportion of capital letters will
vary from 300 to 600 each, except that
9 and Il have $50 each, while there is
required only so of the letter H.
OF the small letters the proportions
however vary in much greater degree,

THE Frenchman at sea is certainly a
very curious person. 1t now appears
that the French engineer did not under
stand how to manage a new English
pump that had just been put into the
ship. When he started this pump he
did so in way that brought water into
the ship instead of pumping it out.
The more that unhappy engineer worked
that pump the more rapidly the sup
posed leak gained on the ship, and so,
after he had pumped the Amerique
nearly full of water, her crew and pas.

THE SITUATION.

As the time for the meeting Of the Leg
islature approached, the anxiety and ex
citement all over the State is very mani
fest. We have had no communication
with Little Rock, since Thursday-the
trains to Clarksville having been stopped
but by what authority we do not learn
1t is surmiscd, however, at the instiga
ton of Mr. Brooks to keep the Western
members of the Legislature from getting
to the Capitol by Monday.
The Supreme Court, within Brooks
camp, have decided the mandamus com.
pelling the State Treasurer to pay the
Auditors warrant for large amount, to
Brooks quartermaster. We suppose
now, the Treasury of the State will be
bled freely to pay the expenses Of the
Brooks Clayton rebellion.
BY way of St. Louis we learn that Gov.
Baxter is receiving reinforcements and is
prepared to maintain his position and
assert his authority, il the President will
stand aside and leave the way clear,
Gen. King White, had made forced
march from Pine Bluff with his command
and taken position at General Steel's ole
fortiGcation on Capitol Iii where, i
need be. he can drop shot and shell righ
into Brooks camp at the State House.
We anticipate, however, that the decis
ion Of the President, will do away with
the necessity for resort to arms--w'
trust so at least Whatever his decision
Baxter or Brooks, will virtually settle
question.

To his Excellency, Joseph Brooks Governor
Of Arkansas:
The people Of this section Of the county

We find the above In the Little Rock Re-
publican OF the 9th. The Press has never
asserted that Crawford County was solid for
Baxter. We knew there were several Brooks
men In the county. and one In particular at
Alma, who thinks he carries the sentiments
Of that little town in his pocket--and that It
Is only necessary for him to speak, for all the
rest to say, Amen.
We do assert, and without fear Of success
ful contradiction, that the great mass CT the
people Of the county are for Mr. Baxter.
And almost tho first gentleman from the
country, that we spoke with after the open
ing Of the troubles at Little Rock, was one
from the town Of Alma-who expressed him
