INVISIBLE PATCHES.

The s'i invisible patch on boots and shoes
is thing that the owner of dilapidated fan
cy feet coverings delights in But to get
one put on by the cobbler costs nearly as
much as by the old way. This need not be,
for any boy can put them on himself in the
following way, given by correspondent OF
the Country Gentleman
Take gutta percha, half ounce bi-sul-
phuret carbon, two ounces. In a wide
mouth bottle put the two together, and
shake occasionally until the gutta percha is
dissolved and it is ready for use When the
patch is to be applied, scrape the boot or
shoe until the blacking is off and the leath-
er is little rough, On this dust with fine
resin, minutest quantity; serve the patch
the same way. Then spread a little of the
cement on both the shoe and the patch, first
having shaved the edges of the patch Ap-
ply like court plaster, and smooth with a
warm spoon or iron, and the shoe will soon
be ready to wear. A few hours will harden
the cement when properly done the patch
will be invisible. and will last as long as the
shoe. This cement is waterproof. The gut
ia percha, shaved in thin slices, is kept in
India rubber stores for the above purposes.
Ten cents worth will do the work of fam
lily for a long time. The bisulphuret OF
carbon is sold by druggists, and will cost
five or ten cents an ounce. The smell,
which is offensive, soon passes off.

From the Oregonian, 18th inst.
Does Portland Desire a EaarbOl
of Refuge?
PORTLAND, March, 1879,

PORTLAND, March, 1879.
Permit me to give few facts to substan-
tiate my opinion that Port Oxford is not,
and Cape Foulweather is, the proper place
for the construction of the proposed g har-
Dor of refuge" for the commerce of this
coast. The official estimate of the cost of
construction of breakwater at Port Oxford,
to enclose 80 acres, is Sc, ,427 900; to enclose
100 acres at Cape Foulweather, $3.50, ,251 90.
Mr. Habersham states in his report that the
Foulweather harbor is SO naturally well pro-
tected from the most dreaded southeast
winds that the opinion was expressed by the
seamen who made the survey that if buoys
were placed to define the entrance, vessels
of any draft could run in and find safe an
chorage and this opinion is substantiated
by the fact that during the recent severe
storm persons who were then at Foulweath-
er say that while the south side of the cape
(exposed like Port Orford) was '' lashed into
a fury, the north side presented an area of
fifty acres as smooth as mill pond, covered
with innumerable sea fowl"
The river and harbor appropriation bill,
passed by congress (of which 5000, ,OGO has
been allowed for our harbor of refuge), is
generally denounced by the press as extrav-
agant. We, therefore, cannot expect more
than like amount to be appropriated each
year. If 5000, 600 be expended each year at
Port Oxford, for sirteen years, we will have
a harbor lin the language of the report)
So sufficient for present necessities" If the
100000 be expended at Foulweather, in
placing buoys and commencing the sea wall
as proposed by Engineer Habersham's re-
port, harbor '' sufficient for present require
ments )" can be available the coming winter,
and the harbor can be enlarged year after
year as the needs of commerce demand or
the bounty of government allows.
have confined myself to what I believe
to be plain statement of facts, that GER
tainly must have been unknown to the Port
land Board of Trade at its meeting last week.
Port Oxford has long been talked of as a
point for harbor of refuge, whereas Foul
weather harbor was altogether unknown un-
til first entered and surveyed last summer
by r. A. Habersham, of this city, acting as
U. s. assistant engineer. Judging from
their action in the matter, opine the gen.
tlemen of the board had never read his re-
PORT. They should hasten to inform them
selves, undo their action, and leave the selec-
ton (as congress has wisely done) to the un
biased and well-informed Judgment of the
board of U. S. engineers.

"A RECKLESS MAN.

While nurse girl was recently drawing
babe along Alfred street she was approached
by a queer-looking old chap, whose mouth
was working as if he wanted to bite some
body. He halted the cab, chuckled to tn,

self. Dear me, but how 1 want to kiss

''But you can't replied the girl.

course, he continued, feeling in his pocket
''Here is twenty-five cents, young miss.
used to have to pay half dollar for kissing
'em but babies are down now, long witt
everything else"
She looked around took the money, told
him to wipe off his mouth, and he gave the
child smack which sounded like dish par
starting for down cellar. An old lady came
around the corner as he Strengthened up and
In reponse to the sharp look she gave him
the old man explained =

FACTS ABOUT MAN. If well made mar
be extended on the ground, his arms at right
angles with the body, circle, making the
navel it's centre, will just take in the head
the fnger-ends and feet.
The distance from top to toe is precisely
the same as that between the tips of the fin
gers when the arms are extended.
The length of the body is just SIX times
that of the foot, while the distance from the
edge of the hair on the forehead to the end
of the chin is one-tenth the length of the
whole stature.
OF the sixty-two primary elements known
in Nature, only eighteen are found in the
human body, and of these only seven are

phorus in the brain, limestone in the bile.
lime in the bones, dust and ashes in all
Not only these eighteen human elements,
but the whole sixty-two, of which the uni

The Republican Party.

That the safety of the country rests
in the full restoration of the Republic
can Party to power, there remains no
shadow of doubt. With the Demo.
Ecracy in control of the Government,
it requires no prophetic eye to see.
that the Republic will be placed in
far greater jeopardy, than when its
fortunes seemed to SO fearfully vibrate
in the balance when treason assaulted
its life on the field of Gettysburg.
Et was the sacred mission Of the Re-,
publican masses to save the nation in
that supreme hour: Of peril. 1t was
it's mission to cary the standard Of un-
ity and free law through all that
bloody period Of conflict with the
Democratic party. And it is its
.mission now to uphold the authority
of the unity of the Republic in the
immediate future.
With the Democratic party in pow
Tcr, all is lost. With it held in abey-
ance the country is quite safe. Dem
ocracy means ,overtaxation. malfeas-
ance, rebel restoration, plantation
manners, and the supremacy of the
Church in all civil affairs. Ofcourse,
time is requisite to bring this, but its
coming is as sure as it is that results
follows cause in case of the elevation
o. the Democracy to power.
The asseveration of Hill, Stevens,
Lamar, and other representatives OF
the old Confederacy to the contrary,
are as meaningless as are the winds.
They could declare nothing more
than fidelity to the general good.
These men are shrewd anu polite.
Upon their lips now rests as sweet
perfume the sentiment OF loyalty to.
the Constitution. But in their hearts
tstill lives the spirit that awoke the
rebel yell on an hundred batt!efields,
that starved and imprisoned our sons,
and that finally struck at the national
heart in the person of Abraham Lin
coin.
In the failure of the Republicans to-
carry the next Presidential election,
comes upon us one of the saddest and
darkest periods of American history.
It will be the inauguration of an era
which will take its place beside that
of the gloomiest .epochs in national
annals. So let every element of patri-
otism begin to prepare for the nearing
struggle of 1850. Vigilance and ac-
tion should be the watchwords with
every Republican from Maine to Ore
(gon.- Commercial (Cal) Adoocate.
