ried, raised from their quarry beds,
removed to the riverside, placed
on some suitable river craft,
columns 20, so, and even a 100 feet
long, transported 600 miles, again
lifted, carried to its place, raised mp
ON it's elevated platform base, and
then finally itself erected thereon,
upright, perpendicular, perfect, and
all with such precision or workman
ship as to stand there in all their
monumental heauty for more than
5000 years; and yet remaining al
most untouched by all the defacing
changes of those thirty centuries of
time. The consideration of all this
swells our amazement into wonder.
We wonder at the marvellous skill in
artisanship, at the powerful mechan-
ical appliances, at the inventive gen
ius and toilsome perseverance of
those ancient sons of Ham, as dis
PLAYED in these works of monument
al granite which nations now the
most refined are coyetous to obtain.
These obelisks form but a single
branch of the workmanship of the
wonderful race, whose civilization IS
stamped upon records of granite for
the edifcation of all succeeding ages;
race who first taught commerce
and navigation to the world; race
who was the schoolmaster to the
Greeks, and who first gave to Greece
her alphabet; race from whom Mo
ses received his high culture to fl
him for the worlds law-giver, and of
whom the high ecomium was, that
she was learned in all the wisdom
of the Egyptians.

IF AND WHY.
BY J. W. DAILY, N. D.

If. far away through the ether dim,
There is a land OF purest love,
Where tolls and griefs, from world OF sln'
Are feltno more in those realms above
If there is A glorious land of light
Where the sunbeams of eternal day,
nisnel the sadening glooms of night,
And awake the seaph's sweetest lay
Il. far in the depths of Gods domain,
There's a place where sorrows ne'er can
come,
Where all may live and love again,
And the scenes of death ne'er mar our
home
II. there is a heavens world OF bliss,
Among those high empyrean spheres,
Where ali may live when done with this,
Throughout the cycles Of endless years
If at the close of this earth life,
The unfettered spirit takes its flight,
From these dark hauntS Of care and strife,
To the enchanted lands of living light
Where mantle image of god on high,
May all those priceless jewels enjoy;
Where not a groan nor aching sigh
Can e'er the happiness alloy,
Then why, oh why this shadowing gloom.
Whence ali these dark forebodIngs come,
That strew ones pathways to the tomb
With terrors of the far beyond?
Why does that hideous monster death,
To mortals here such panic give,
When its really with the expiring breath,
That man himself begins to live.

Horror. Of a Turkish Execution.

As we walked about the town
yesterday morning we could not
avoid coming upon FIVE street exc
cutions and witnessing the whole
disgusting proceedings, not that
they were to me any novelty, for
during the two or three days l was
in Adrianople it seemed as if new
er could get out of the sight of men
dangling in the air. As soon as a
likely-looking shop is reached-say
one with sunblinds supported with
brackets-the officer cries "Halt!"
and soldier carrying a stool and
a rope, steps on one side and ar
ranges the latter over the bracket.
The man steps on to the stool, the
moose is placed around his neck, and
he is drawn off his feet. There is
no drop, but in every case, l am
told, the poor wretch dies just as
those we saw did-that is to say, in
simultaneously, and apparently with
little pain, being, In fact, choked in
stead of having the neck broken. |
have dwelt upon this, not to salts
fly the morbid craving for details in
such matters, but to call the atten-
tion of some scientific man to the
subject; for, if our patent drops and
new-fangled hanging apparatus are
mot so merciful as the other method
of hanging, then our capital crimi-
mails are punished in excess of what
the law demands. To be hanged by
the neck partially broken and the
circulation of the blood, and per-
haps the nervous system generally,
stimulated into intense activity.

TO the Farmers Of Geddr Co.,.

TO the Farmers Of Cedar Co..
The greatest want of the farmers of
Cedar county at this time is uniform
ly dry land. There has been consid-
erable open ditching done, which an
swers very well for heavy sloughs.
But there are great many small
sloughs, or arms running up into the
arabic land-more or less of them on
every farm. These are a great incon-
venience and annoyance-more, per-
haps, than the larger ones. No one
wants the farm cut up in every direc-
ton with open bitches, and to avoid
this the gopher or mole ditch was in
troduced. But these, in most cases.
have proved unsatisfactory and tenn
porary. They do we'll for season,
but finally fail in part or altogether.
The burned drain tile is the thing
that has proved success for under
ground draining in the old country
and iii the Eastern States: and there
| Is every reason to believe that it will
be equally so here. The only question
Is, can it be obtained at price which
VIII permit its use? The only way to
get the tile at reasonable rates is for
the farmers to unite in shipping and
buy by the car-l,ad-as in small lots
the freight would be enormous-or
else get some one to take hold of tho
trade. 1t would be well for the farm
ers OF this county to talk this thing up
and get ready to take hold OF 1t In due
time. A FARMER,

The official cali for a Republican
State nvention-omitting the APP
portionment to counties outside this
District and the Chairman's little
stump speech-is published at the
head of this column. The County
Convention to select delegates from
Cedar will be announced as soon as
the most convenient season shall be
agreed upon probably next week.
IT may be true, as an old fellow
from some rural district said in the
last State Convention when ii was
proposed to reduce the number OF del
egates, that, "Wewant tocomeup here
..once year any way, and as long as
1--WE pay our own bills it is nobody's
ssbusiness." This may be true, but
the above call provides for nine hun
dred aud s;rty delegates, all of whom
can i'm no way better represent the
wishes Of the Republicans of the State
than could one half the number
which would still make the Conven-
ton large, boisterous and unwieldy
enough in all conscience. Then ex-
perience has shown that in these inn
mense Conventions the only .ta1 del
e.ations are from the region contig-
uous to the Capital, and a few coan-
ties are thereby enabled to exert
much more influence than that to
which they are entitled.
