The most agreeable Of all com
palions is a simple, frank man.
without any high pretentions to
any oppressive greatness; one who
loves life and understands the use
of it; obliging alike at all hours;
above all, of a golden temper, and
steadfast as an anchor. For such a
one we gladly exchange the greatest
genius, the most brilliant wit, the
profoundest thinker.

Cleansing a Brussels Carpet,

First have the carpet well shaken,
then tack it down in the room
where it is to remain; sweep 1t as
thoroughly as possible; take pail
of hot water, put in two table
spoonfuls pulverized borax; wash
the carpet all over the surface, u.s.
ing a flannel cloth. For grease
spots or very dirty places use a
scrubblng brush freely, and very
little soap, taking care to rinse the
soap of well after scrubbing;
change the water quite often; rub
the carpet well with a dry cloth
after washing, and open doors and
windows so as to dry the carpet
as quickly as possible.

A NEW METHOD OF STEAMBOAT PRO
PULSION.

Mr.. Eli Hunt, of Nyack, N. T., a gentle
man Of long experience in steamboat man
arement and construction, has invented q
novel means of propulsion for such vessels,
AIR. Hunt is of opinion that a boat, of the
dimesions below given, can, with two OF
his wheels, be driven at the rate of thirty
miles per hour; and he further considers
that, by means Of the general arrangement
of the device, increased steadiness OF the
vessel will be obtained.
The boat taken us an example is to be 2oO
feet long, of 40 feet beam at q distance Of
100 feet from stern, 80 feet wide at stern. of
10 feet depth Of hold, and of 4 feet draught.
Propulsion is obtained by two screw wheels
Is feet in diameter and of % feet pitch, with
straight blades placed to dip within one
foot Of the bottom of the boat. These
screws travel in opposite directions; and as
their vanes are long and elastic, it is be-
lieyed that, despite their size, they will jar
the vessel much less than the ordinary SUBJ
merged screw. The inventor proposes to
drive his propellers at $50 revolutions,
which. he claims, with Il pitch Of % feet,
would secure a speed of 374 miles per hour;
u miles are deducted for slip, leaving 30
miles per hour as the effective speed OF the
boat.
MI. Hunt sends us no records Of practical
tests of his invention; but he considers that,
Judging from his experience, it is entirely
practicable, and possesses advantages both
over the paddle wheel and ordinary propel-
Ter. 1t allows of stern screw propulsion in
very shallow water; and if the speed men
toned is realized, it might be applied in
lieu of the paddle wheel upon steamboats,
on our Western rivers. .-Scienty fc american.

We notice that p. B. 8. Pinchbaclx
figured quite conspiouously at the meet
ing OF colored men held Wednesday
night at church on Common street, to
agitate and enforce mixed schools. The
appointment OF Pinchback as men,
Der on the State Board of Education
was reluctantly, In fact sullenly &C.
Quiesced In by the people as political
necessity. and tolerated because OF their
confidence In Gov. Nichols wisdom
and judgment. Pinchback's character
and anteoedents utterly unfit him for
the position he holds. and now that he
has thought proper to engage in the
agitation OF question which Is caIcu-
lated to embarrass the efficient estab-
lishment OF the public schools, and to
create strife and contention in the COM
munity. perhaps the Governor may
deem it advisable to remove him under
act No. 125 OF the Acts Of 1877, Regular
Session, which reads as follows:

Iowa Ia troubled with superfluity of
parties-a disease common to all the
States that hold elections this year. It
boasts OF a Democratic ticket, with
malcontents, Republican ticket, with
boilers, Prohibition ticket, a Green
back ticket and an anti. Masonic ticket.
The latter has been grossly neglected by
the press; while the other party conven-
tions are reported In full and column
and Q half given to the very rickety
platforms that some OF them stand on,
the anti Masons fail to get even a six
line advertisement. And yet their con-
vention at Marshalltown discovered the
true causes Of the hard times, financial
depression, panic. strikes, etc., and a
cure for all these diseases of the body
polite.
Says the platform:
RESOLVED, That intemperance and secrecy
are the causes of the hard times; that secret
societies have crippled the cause of temper
ance: that no man should hold Office who is a
member of a secret society; that it is the right
of every citizen of the United States to ami
hiiate secret societies.
Here is an entirely new set of causes
for our troubles. Times are hard just
now, but it is rot from lack Of causes, if
there is any truth in the platforms Of
Republicans, GreenEackers, Working
men and anti-Masons.

Our New York exchanges contain
eulogies of Urban Jean Joseph Lever
rier, the great French astronomer and
savant, who was for many years the
director Of the Observatory Of Paris,
whose death occurred on Sunday, the
23d September.
LeVerrier was one Of the greatest sci
entists the world has ever known, rank
ing Justly and without dispute with such
men as Newton, Herschell and Calico.
In astronomy his labors were not less
arduous or fruitful Of discoveries than
the greatest, while his prediction of the
discovery of Neptune is, perhaps. the
most remarkable isolated fact in the
history of astronomical science. The
following account Of this achievement
is given in the New York Herald;

mitted the first results OF his work to that
learned body. Convinced that the movements
OF Uranus could not be explained by the
attraction OF known celestial bodies, he was
led to seek In an unknown body new ele-
ment of disturbance. After having eliminated
the hypothesis of a large satellite, Or OF an
unknown comet, he recognized the pro.
longed, continuous, persistent, but still
variable action of a planet. Proceeding
from the very movement which 1T was
necessary to explain by its influence, he
arrived by. equations at the mass, the
orbit and the position OF the unknown dis
turbing planet on the list Of June, 1916. He
announced publicly to the Academy of
Sciences what would be within about ten de-
grees the position of this planet in the heavens
on the LIST of January of the following year.
AS the slowness of its movement would, from
this date, hold it very little removed from
the position predicted, 1T was possible from
that moment to search for it, A German as
tronomer, M. Gale, engaged in preparing a
chart of that region of the armament where
the planet was announced by LIE Verrler to
exist, discovered it virtually on the 23d OF
September. On the first Of January Neptune,

The general opinion OF the country
press seems to be that the late unpreoe-
IDENTIFY heavy and continued rains have
interfered more with cotton and been
more injurious to the cotton crop than
either worms or cyclones. Louisiana and
Southern Mississippi lost from ten to
fourteen days OF cotton picking at the
beginning Of September. and nearly as
many more during eQuinoctial weeks.
Such loss is an irreparable injury.
Many country papers now report that,
with short crop. all the cotton will not
be gathered, az 30 much valuable time
has been already lest. The effect Of
these rains and the loss of tiLe IL seen
in the slowness with which cotton comes
