the line Of the Southern Kansas and
Western Railroad. There are other
towns on the same line of road, but
Longton having the best country
around 1t, has q larger trade than
any OF them.
Notwithstanding railroads and
other advantages. land is still cheap,
compared with land in Gallia county.
/ know of one farm for sale, q
short description Of which / will
give in order that yonr readers may
judge for themselves: 80 acres l
mile from Longton and Railroad
depot, go acres under fence and
cultivation, timber and running
water, soil good, stock range, &c.,
good well Of water, fair dwelling and
nt-houses. The land is called
setond bottom. Price $l,lO0 90,
5000 90 cash in hand, balance in
payments to suit parties. To my
mind this Is bargain, and l would
like to see some man from old Gallia
buy it. The owner is q mechanic
and not farmer, and therefore
wishes to sell it.
And now, lest the Editor or some
one else get weary over this letter,
| will close by saying, if any Of my
old friends who may wish to know
more of this part of Kansas and
farms, they can address me by letter
and I will give them all the infor-
nation that / can.

An Innocent Abroad.

The other day the police at the
Union Depot noticed feeble-look-
ing old man wandering in and out
to kill time until his train should
depart, and as he several times dis
played quite q roll of bills he was
cautioned to look out for pick
pockets and confidence men.
"Wonld anybody rob an old man
like me?" he innocently asked.
The warning was repeated, but he
logged around as before. and after q
time was seen in consultation with
two strangers, who had walked him
around to the wharf. An officer got
him away from them and angrily
said:
sDidn't l warn you against stran-
gers? Those fellows are after your
money!
"But how can they get it when ]

on it all the time"
"Well. you look out"
"Yes, I'll look out; but I don't
want to be uncivil. When anybody
talks to me, / like to talk back"
The strangers sooc had him on
the. string again and ia about 9
quarter of an hour they left him In
hurried manner, and he sauntered
into the depot with his wallet in
hand.
"There! You've let 'em beat you!
exclaimed the officer. "How much
did YOU lend them2"
"Wall, they wanted twenty dol

LoNGToN, ELK Co., KANSAS,
Feb. 9th, 1880.

Ed. JoURNAL:-After residence
in Kansas of almost seven years, l
must say that still like the coun-
try. The greater part of our winter
has been dry and pleasant, hence
our farmers have had no difficulty
in the way of mud-in conveying
their produce to market. We had
one short "cold snap" which gave

desiring to put up some, had to

And now a few words about Elk
county. 1t is one of the best coun-
ties in Southern Kansas for agricul-
tural and grazing purposes. The
soil is of black and red limestone,
very rich and of easy cultivation.
The county is not a part OF the
"Great American Desert" as some
of the counties further west. but is
we'll watered. Elk River, stream
about the size Of Symmes' Creek,
traverses the county from northwest
to south east. 1t is q rich valley oil
land and well timbered. 1t has sew
eral tributaries, whose bottoms are
very rich, and also well timbered.
Elk county is only about ten years
old, and yet it has a population OF
over ten thousand inhabitants. MOI
is this all: There is an abundance
OF room for more, and We don''
care whether they are Republicans
Democrats or Greenbackers, whitf
or black, so they come and engage
in some honest ayocatlon.
Howard City Is the county seat o
the county, and the terminus of th'

We have also the Southern Kansas

Scenes in Jerusalem.

Mrs. John Straiton, of New York,
who recently paid visit to the Holy
Land, wrote to her friends in this COM
try series of interesting letters giving
an account of her travels. Some of
these are now being published, and
frsm one of them we take the following
extract:
tIt is sad to witness the decay of Jeru-
salem. Palestine is a land of ruins.
We saw the church of the Holy Sepul-
chre. 1t is one of the most attractive
scenes here. It has twin domes, count
less pillars, and is very massive build
ing, and is said to contain and cover all
the scenes of the cruci6xion, entomb-
ment and resurrection of the Redeemer.
The stone OF which the body was an
nointed and prepared fer burial, and a
block on which the angel sat to announce
the resurrection, are shown.
Two hundred gold and silver lamps are
kept constantly burning, surrounded by
ornaments of the richest kind. We as
cended to Mount Calvary-all enclosed
in this mosque-and / saw the rent in
the mount, and the holes where the
three crosses stood, and many interest
ing things, the whole surrounded with
rich trappings of the Greek church,
Part only belongs to Catholics. The
shrine of the Virgin, where she witnessed
the death of her son, is enclosed in
glasses and contains presents from all the
kings and queens, such as rich and mas
slve chains, rings, bracelets, earrings, dia'
mond necklaces, ETC., each stone larger
than any / ever saw before. The crown
and halo. studded with smaller ones

Monks of all nations assemble here
The Latin monks, the Abyssinian, Greel

they quarrel outside the church. Their

from all the nations, and all talking to
gether.
| We visited also the Mosque of Omar
1t incloses the Mount Moriah, wher
Abraham and Isaac sacrificed. 1t is nea
the site of the Temple of Solomon. Thu
rock or part is suspended over an i'm
mense abyss, and it is here, through
small hole, where, it is said, Mohamme
assembled to heaven. It is 10 feet higt

Court Plaster.

The Scientific american gives the
following directions for making this use
full article: Soak isinglass in little
warm water for seventy-four hours ;
then evaporate nearly all the water by
gentle heat dissolve the residue in a
little dilute alcohol; and strain the
whole through piece of open linen.
The strained mass should be stiff jelly
when cold. Now stretch piece of silk
or sarsenet on wooden frame, and fix
it tight with tacks or pack-thread. Melt
the Jelly and apply it to the silk thinly
and evenly with badger hair-brush.
A second coating must be applied when
the first has dried. When both are dry,
apply over the whole surface two or
three coatings of the balsam of Peru.
Plaster thus made is very pliable, and
never breaks.
