Ridiculous Patents.

Among the applications for patents, many
are ridiculous in the extreme. One man
applied for patent for method of render
ing spirits visible. He said that the only
reason why spirits do not make themselves
visible to those they love is that the currents
and disturbances Of the air annoy and
bother them. In order to overcome this
objection, he proposed to apply suction
pump to room, suck all the air out, and
thus form perfect vacuum. The spirits
then being troubled no longer, would be-
come visible. As those who are to see the
spirits, after they do become visible, cannot
live in a room in which there is no air, and
as the pressure of the atmosphere would
crush in any substance which is transparent
enough to admit light and car be seen
through, even supposng that the theory is
true, how is it possible to get sight of the
spirits!
Another asked for patent for the genera
ton OF steam by boring hole down 20 the
centre of the earth where everything is in
red hot or molten condition. Among the
advantages claimed for this unique method
Is that there is no danger of an explosion,
and no expense for fuel or engineers. A
professor once gave the following question
to his class, each one of the scholars to
think it over and give him an answer on the
following day: "suppose hole was bored
through the centre Of the earth down to
China and a cannon ball was dropped into
the hole, where would the ball finally
come to rest % Next day he asked the
first boy If he had thought about the ques-
ton, and the boy replied: 81 cannot say
that have given much thought to the
main question, but have given good deal
to subsidiary one. How are you going to
get that hole to China" so in regard to
this invention. 1t is not the expense or
trouble after you have the steam, but how
is the hole to be dug so deepa

In the following well-chosen words tn.
Picayune expresses tho sentiments Which
have directed tho course of tho TEL sa RApu
tor years. Our faith in local compromises
and expedients IS as nothing, so long as
the President is Il Radical:
The desire OF tho Conservatives of I.ouisi
ana is for peace, and that is their true policy.
It would be easy enough for them to over
throw the present Government in fow
hours throughout tho limits of the state
But If they should do so their triumph
would be but short-lived. In a few DAYS
their work would be undone by the Fed,
raj soldiery and the condition OF tho State
would be worse than ever. More thar,
that, tho aggressive policy towards tho
south now determined upon by the Radical
party would thus receive an apparent ms
tiftcation, and both Houses OF Congress
would be sure TO sustain the Aaminis is, ra
ton in whatever measures ii might resort
to in putting down the revolt.
We have one hope: ii is to carry tna next
Presidential election That done, we may
expect to see the long disregarLed claims OF
oppressed Louisiana recognized, and her
lost rights restored. Toward that end we
must prepare ourselves both to labor a,l
to suffer. Patience. and yet again patience,
Let no ill-adyised counsel, no act born oil
