BALLOON TELEGRAPHY.

At the recent inauguration of the Theirs statue some experiments were made with balloon with view of ascertaining to what extent signals could be understood. The eronauts made the signals with a flag, and the experimenters on the earth, at dis tance of more than three miles, received them on mirror and translated them. the Morse alphabet being used for the purpose. The results show that there is little difficulty in communicating with be- sieged town possessing captive balloon.
 Work is a necessity in one way or another to most of us. Overwurk is of our own making, and, like all self-imposed burdens, Is beyond our strength

! StanWiX. X...... S0.O Sl0.9
 The track is laid for six or eight
 miles beyond the new station, which
 itwas at first proposed to establish at
 a point some four miles further east
 than it IS; but the present location
 was decided upon in order 10 afford
 greater facilities for reaching the ia
 nous Agua Caliente (Hot Spring.) to
 which it is expected there will be much travel. These springs are said to have no superior for the cure of
 rheumatic affections.
 Grading parties are reported at
 work as far ahead as near Gila Bend,
 some forty miles east of Stanwix.
 Tracklaying has been seriously re-
 tarded during the past three weeks
 by delays in receipt of rails. These
 are no going forward at the rate of
 about one and a half miles daily. As
 grading is now so far ahead of the track and as the supply of ties on
 hand is nearly enough 10 finish the road to Maricopa, if no further delay is experienced in shipment of rails the remaining 75 miles to that point may be expected to be laid by April 20th, or by May 1st at latest.
 Klein has already moved one of his portable hotels to Stanwix, with staff of cooks, etc, and will be ready by to- morrow to feed travellers and the usual : camp p-follo'vers'' of a railroad tcrmin- Us. The Tucson stages will drive from Stanwix direct to Berk's Station, or the old stage road, This Stanwix
 must not be confoundcd with the old stage station ofthat name, on the Gila. from which it lies some eight miles south. The pilc-driver train is now at work on the bridges in the Mohawk Gap everything in that line being finished this side oftlere After finish ing those bridges there will be little for the pile driver to do till the road gets to Oatman Canon. Texas Hill has been a busy place. Last Thurs day our reporter counted there tifty-six wagons of all kinds; over half of them loaded and ready to roll out. The ] day before, the railroad agent had de ! livered 130 tons of freight During ! the past two weeks the forwarding house of JIM. Barney had shipped ] from there over 250 tons of freight. Some twenty carloads will be drawn to Stanwix, to be deliverd . .here Donaldson & Co.,, have had all . .he blackSmithing they could do, run hing two forges and six or eight and woodworkers all the ime. They will move on to Stanwix md put up shed. At present they are working without cover; but the thermometer stood at 95 at two clock Thursday in the stage office-to hot for outdoor blacksmithing. Our re- porter could hear of no artesian bOr ing going on, but learned that very large well was being dug at Mari copa. At present all water used on rains is hauled out from Yuma; that 1t Adonde being good for drinking, but unfit for steam, and that at Mo hawk gap being unfit for any use- Sentinel.

Chester Reporter: We are informed
that Senior Moncado, Spanish Consul at
Charleston, will visit Chester the latter
part of July or early in August to in
spect the lands adjacent to the town,
and should he find them adapted to the
purpose, to make purchases, if offered to
him on favorable terms, with the inten-
tion of introducing Spanish colonists to
engage in the cultivation of the grape.
He thinks from the latitude of this re-
gion, (being nearly the same as that of
the grape growing regions of Spain,
and from representations made, that all
varieties of the grape can be grown in
this region as successfully as in Spain.
Senator Butler, We understand, will ac-
company the Spanish Consul on his
visit to Chester.

WHO ARE ARIsTocRATs ?-Twenty
years ago this one made candles, that
one sold candles and butter, another
butchered, fourth carried on distil-
lery, another was contractor on canals,
others were merchants and mechanics.
They are acquainted with both ends of
society, as their children will be after
them, though it will not do to say 30
out loud. For often you find these
toiling worms hatch butterfies-and they
live about year. Death brings a d.
vision of property, and it brings new
fnanciers. The old gent is discharged,
the young gent takes revenues and be-
gins to travel-towards poverty, which
be reaches before death, or his children
do if he does not, SC that, in fact, though
there is a sort of moneyed rank, it is
not hereditary; it is accessible to all,
The father grubs and grows rich his
children strut and use the money. The
children in turn inherit pride and go
shiftless to poverty. Next their children,
reinvigorated by fresh plebian blood and
by the smell OF the clod, come up again.
Thus society, like tree, draws its sap
from the earth, changes it into seed and
blossoms, spreads them around in great
glory, sheds them TO fall to the earth
again, to mingle with the soil and at
length reappear in new dress and fresh
garniture. e.-Philadelphia Times. :,

- When the Zulus rushed in on the
small British detachment of Col. Wood,
and while there was yet an open road in
one direction, Col. Weatherly, an English
cavalry officer, clapped his son, a boy oi
13 who was with him, on horseback,
kissed him, and told him to fly for life.
The lad jumped from the saddle, striking
the horse a lash which sent it galloping
off. and said: "Father, I'll die with you. "
The father handed his revolver to the
child Just as the Zulus reached, over
British bodies, the spot where they stood.
Weatherly slew FIVE before he fell, but
the son was killed at once.

A Thought on Future Retribution.

Whatever Henry Ward Beecher or any
one else may think, or theorize, concerning
the doctrine of future retribution, certain
it is that nature is an uncompromising
believer in its certainty and justice. Do
yourself the willful injury of violating
the conditions of health, her retribution
is sure and often apparently far exceed
ing in proportion the sin. Late hours,
irregular meals, overeating, excesses OF
all kinds, are followed by "liver COM
plaint," dyspepsia, and sympathetic dis
orders of the brain. In women the
same excesses, augmented by the wearing
of tight or insufficient clothing the sus-
pension of heavy skirts from the hips,
ETC., invariably produce those weaknesses,
and diseases peculiar to the sex. Re-
peated attacks of cold, due to exposure,
inevitably produce catarrh, and in some
cases consumption. The liberal party
have one argument in their favor in the
fact that DR.. Pierce's Family Medicines
are sure and efficient remedies for these
retributive diseases. The Golden Medi-
cal Discovery and Pleasant Purgative
Pellets, for the diseases of the stomach
and liver, are unexcelled,. while the Fa-
vorite Prescription enjoys the highest
reputation of all remedies for female dis
eases and weaknesses.
