The California Sack Holder.

Among the many new Inventions ana Ia
Dor saving cOntrivances that have been In
troduced to the public, there is none that
recommends itself SO fully and readily, as the
California sack holder. BY its use the labor
OF one man IL saved, and the sacking OF grain
instead OF being the tiresOme "backbresk.
ing" work as heretofore, becomes light and
agreeable. In fact boy can operate II rs
well as a man. The sack holder, like mos: Of
the more useful inventions, Is very simple In
its construction, and it Is next to impossible
to get II out OF order. II is light, weighing
but about II pounds, and will last though
constantly uscd for years. Ii Is adjustable To
any size sack, and allows no wastage what,
ever. We consider that IL Is one 0f the most
useful California inventions We have seen.
The patentees deserve to realize the hand
some profit we predict for them, and we feel
warranted In making the prediction from the
large number OF people who nightly examine
its practical workings ut the Mechanics Pa

Greenback Sermon.

The other day Colonel BERGMAN ad-
dressed greenback meeting in Henry
county. On the same day and in the
same locality there was German camp
meeting. A citizen who takes consid-
cradle interest in greenback theories,
and has attended good many meet
ings, set out to hear Colonel BERGMAN.
The speaker had just begun when ne
reached the grounds, aud for an hour
and half he listened patiently and
with a great effort at intelligent COM
prehension. When he was coming
away he met friend, who asked him
where he had been. He pointed to the
grove and said he had been listening
to the speaking.
"How did you like it?" asked his
friend curiously.
"Oh-h, SO, So" replied the citizen,
there was lots in it that I couldn't
understand, lots that I couldn't make
head or tail of, aud it seemed all
mixed up like, but it was about like
all the greenback speeches I have
heard"
"Greenback speeches. yelled his
friend ia amazement. "Greenback the
devil! That was o Dutch sermon you
heard; the greenback barbecue was in
the next grove"
But the citizen came away buried in
deep thought, aud wondering how it
was he managed to keep the general
drift of q greenback speech in his mind
when he could not speak or understand
. word of German.

pNDERGROUND TELEGRAPH.
THE LINE THhrI is TO CONNECT FRAN
FoRroNi THE-MAIN WITH sTRAs,a

is .... II " II a., -
The work Of, establishing an. under
ground telegraph between Frankfort-oD-
ihe- Main and Strasburg is being rapidly
pushed forward, and the wires have
been laid down as far as Mannheim.
When the trench in which the cable has
been laid is filed in, certain marks are
made at fixed places along The line, so
to enable the engineers to discover, in
the event of any rupture of communi-
cations, the point at which repairs are
required. The wiie will ne Brought in
to Strasburg by way of Kehl and the
Austerlitz gate, aud will terminate at
the building 10 which the Central ADJ
mlnistration of Telegraphs has its bead
quarters. The rFraDkfOr, and Stra,burv
cable Is the seventh of the kind which
has has been laid DOWN. by tie Germ .n
administration of Telegraphs, and IL has
Deen Constructed upon all improved plan.
Inc seven fonducLors contained in the
cable arc all formed of seven copper
wires, "a inches in diameter, ,twisIed
together. each wire being covered with a
coasting OF isolating material. The
seven conductors, thus isolated from one
another, are placed together and twistt d
hwa,s. The protecting amor
tn. cable consists of twenty -four wires
about the twelfth OF an inch thick, rolled
round The conductor |; next comes al,
iron tube, then layer of asphalte. will
a lining Of hemp; and second layel
OF aspbaIte over all. The alloy OF the
metals used, the composition OF the iso
Iating materials, aud even The degree oi
electric r, sistance, are all deteI mined
with mathematical precision.
