why iBuildings are struck by
IfghtninR.

1t will now be readily perceived why
tail building, such as church spires, are
more liable 70 be "struck," 10 use the
common expression, than structures Of q
less height. Buildings may be construct.
ed, wholly or in part, Of substances pos.
sessing greater conducting power than
the air, and as they rise to considerable
distance above the earth's surface, they
lessen by 90 much the thickness Of the
stratum air 10 be trayersed, and dimin.
ih in corresponding degree the resist
ance TO be overcome between cloud and
earth. 0ftwo edifces equally conduc-
tive, the higher will thus occasion the
greater reduction Of resistance, and con.
sequently the discharge will take place
directly over this building, and through
1t TO and from the ground. The effects
Of the pASsage Of electricity through
the building will DO determined
by the degrees Of conductiyity
possessed by the latter, or in
other words, by the resistance il offers,
II it be constructed Of metal, or II Il
have continuous piece Of metal running
through it from top to bottom, the cleo
trio charge will pas without causing in
It any visible effect, because little or no
resistance Is opposed. For this reason
buildings, as the reader doubtless knows,
have often affixed to them for their pro.
lection a metal rod called Lightning
conductor. But II there be no metal EN-
ployed In the construction Of the build.
Ing, or II the metal used be in separate
aud detached pieces there will be great
resistance 10 be overcome, and the force
required to overcome 1t may be sufficient
10 cause the destruction Of the building
or at least the displacement Of those
parts where the resistance is greatest.
The heat generated by the passage oil
electricity through badly conducting
substances Is often great enough to sci
combustible materials on fre.-Chdmb1s

SEED CORN.

The proper time to select seed
corn is at the season OF harvest-or
gathering season. Perfect ears
should DE chosen, perfect in form
and ripeness. An ear with a large
cob is rot a good keeper. The
cob contains SO large a quantity of
sap that the ear is liable to retain
dampness, and if the season is un-
favorable, warm and damp after the
grain is cribbed it is apt to become
: blue-eyed.t "A sound ear, early
ripe with medium sized cob. grains
full and perfect, is The best selec-
ton for seed. Red cobs in white
corn should pe rejected, as the bran
or chaff which remains among and
adheres to the points Of The grain
to some extent gives the sheled
corn a tinged appearance which in~
fuences its selling qualities in east
ern markets.
When the ears are selected thew
should be stored in a dry place

OLD BUT GOOD.
AN ESSAY AND AN ANECDOTE.

Obstacles in the path of a man
of true metal, are but indictments
to enterprise and success. TO do
greatly we must dare greatly is a
maxim of approved wisdom: he who
resists nothing will almost certain
ly achieve nothing, at least moth
ing worth achieving. It is howev-
er worth while to distinguish be-
tween real and imaginary Alps,
and between impedimen,s which
can he removed and those which
defy all reasonable endeavors for
their displacement.
Some obstacles are really i,sur-
mountable, and some are not worth
the trouble Of surrounding. When
there is "a lion in the way it may
be the part Of wisdom 20 keep out
of it.
Appropos Of lions, a good story
is told Of Gen. Jackson. A young
Tennesseean having been taken
prisoner by the British near New
Orleans, was asked by one Of his
captors how far it was to the city.
Six miles was the reply. Then
we will reach there Tomorrow
said the other. You will find it a
rough road. said the Tennesseean.
All D.! what is in the way? Old
Hickory, said the young man.

a CURE FOR SNAKE BITE.

The following which we clip
from an ex change, we have seen
before. 1t came, if one rccollect
arigh. originally from an old Ger.
mau in the fatherland, who had
never known it to fail. In the
country where snakes most abound,
fresh egg is always on hand, and
therefore the remedy can be always
within reach. A physician of Ore
gon says Take the yolk of a
good egg, put it in teacup, and
stir in as much salt as will make it
thick enough to run off, and spread
plaster and apply this to the
wound. Do this when bitten or
stupg, and l will insure your life
for sixpence. l have tried this
remedy in number Of eases, and
have never known it to fail to cure
rattlesnake bite or the sting of
a spider

FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS REWARD.

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT., I
State of Louisiana. (
Whereas, information, to mo deemed
sufficient, has reached me that IN the
early part of September 1878, Henry
Brookhart was forcibly taken ont of his
house, in the Parish of West Feliciana.
by unknown parties, tied to tree until
he was almost inscnsib!c and then bea-
ten and whipped and then on the Soy
enteenth day of September, 1878, the
wife of John Coates was also severely
beaten by some unknown persons in the
same Parish and whereas l am deter
mined to suppress violence and crimes.
and to do all in my power to prevent the
repetition of such dastardly outrages.
Now, therefore, I, FRANCIS 7. NIGH

do hereby issue this my proclamation
calling upon all good citizens of the State
and especially those Of the Parish of
West Foliciana, to aid and assist in the
detection of the author or authors of the
said crimes, and by virtue of the mowers
vested III me by law do hereby offer Il
reward Of FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS
(two hundred and fifty dollars in each
