PoE's Raven ILLUSTRATED. -" Manet
has lust illustrated The Raven that hne
poem of Edgar Poe, already translated tiity
times into French, and which Mallarme has
lust Translated again. 1t is beautiful ioIIo,
only $40 copies printed, on the finest paper
in the world. On the parchment cover the
raven outlines his great beakssnd interro'
gates the evi! fates. Heis terrible and alive ;
more frightful still when he spreads bis wings
and displays his claws. The third etching
represents Edgar Poe at work in the bleak
Decem Der, trying to borrow from his books
surcease of sorrow for the lost Lenore. The
fourth is picture Of the poet and the raven.
when the shutter is opened and the bird
without the least obaisance' enters; the
fifth is the raven prrched on the bust OF Pal
las, aud saying, 'Nevermore.' NJ. Manet has
endeavored to reproduce the vague, the pro-
found, the nocturnal. and the luminous TO
be found in that admirable poetry, which
embraces 50 much OF the ideal and sugges-
tive. Those will be disappointed who shall
look in these etcbings for the fnical details OF
the ancient ensravers. 1t is rapid, spirit
uel. running pencilIing. "-A'sene Houssdye

DIGGING AROUND IN THE MOUNDS OF MIS.
NEToSKA.- From The Minnesota Mail, 30th. !
The parry of gentlemen who went out TO
Mlnnetonka yesterday afternoon to inspect
tue mounds of that place returned last eve.
ming full OF wisdom and enthusiastic over
the subject. The party numbered some
twenty gentlemen, principally OF the medlc, |
fraternity, together with Professors Win.
chel and Peckhsm, Of the State University,
and Professor Ward. The party first made
a search for mounds on the farm of Dir.
Schaeffer, and discovered some nineteen in
number, arranged in order according to the
lay OF the ground, and evidently SO as to
command the water. The mounds varied
in size. Two of the number were
tapped. The first one, SEINE thirty
feet in circumference and FIVE feet
high, was discovered to contain fragments of
human bones, and three different skulls were
unearthed, one of which was in an almost
perfect state Of preservation. The gentle
men did not have time to examine 10 any
extent the second mound. No pottery or
stone implements were discovered, as is
usually The case ia like mounds. An eXami.
nation was made of mounds on the farm of
Mrs. Ferguson, but tney were not dug into.
The learned gentlemen propose some time In
September TO Rkke an examination OF the
mounds upon NeDle's islands, ia the upper
lake, which are reported 10 he much larger
than those examined yesterday. The frag.
mentS and skulls anearthed were preserved
By DR.. Leonard. and will be duty toru to
pieces -5guratiyely speaking-at the next

DIFFICULT RAILROAD BUILDING The fol.
loving statement of engineering difficulties
is taken from the Los Angeles lCa'.) Herdld
of July IA:
lacy one. desiring to obtain any idea of
the stupendous accomplishments of railroad
engineering should spend few days 10
Tenachape Pass, investigating the opera
tions of the Southern Pacific Railroad COM.
pauy. About twenty miles of that road is
a succession Of cuts, fills, and tunnels. With
in this distance there arc thirteen tunnels,
ranging from LOO feet TO few yards in
length. For the greater portion OF the way
the rcad-bed Is cut through solid granite.
The elevation is so great from the present
terminus of the road at Caliente to Tehachape
Valley that the first mile and u half out OF
Callente is attained by laying down eight
miles of track. Higher up in the pass the
road runs through Il tunnel, encircleS the
bill and, passes few feet above the tunnel.
after completely encircIing the hill and
going halt around again the track doubles
on itself like closely.pursued' hair, and
after running seve8ll miles in the opposite
direction strikes up the can)n. This citciny
and doubling is for grade. Once the track
crosses the pass, aud this involves the build
ing of q long and very high bridge. We
doubt il a more difficult and expensive piece
of engineering was encountered in the build
ing of the Central Pacific over the Siarras
than that with which the Southern Paciti;
is now struggling In Tehachape Pass. Au-
other tremendous piece OF work is the San
Fernando tunnel, which, when completed,
will be over a mile aud baif in length,
and in places over 1000 feet beneath the
surface. Yet the company will accomplish
this great work and run cars through from
San Francisco 10 Los Angeles by the 1st Of
next July. All the force thut can be used
is kept ut work on the San Fernando tun.
Mel. In the Tehachape Pass 5000 men are
employed, and the force is being increased
ut the rate of 1000 Chiuamen per week."

Let it remain immersed while you count ten,

three pounds of pure, dry sugar, one quart
