The Sand Blast.

Among the wonderful and useful lnven'
tions of the time ia the common sand blast.
Suppose you should desire to letter piece
Of marble for gravest one you cover the
stone with sheet of wax no thicker than
a wafer then cut in the wax the name,
date, etc., leaving the marble exposed.
Now pass IT under the sand and the wax
will not be injured at all, but the sand will
cut letters deep into the stone. Or. IL you
desire raised letters, a flower or other en-
blem, cut the letter., flowers, etc., in wax
and stick them upon the stone then pass
the stone under the blast and the sand will
cut it away. Remove the wax and you have
the raised letters. Take piece Of French
plate glass, say two feet by six, and cover
IL with fine lace, pass 1t under the blast and
not thread OF lace will be injured, but
the sand will cut deep into the glass
wherever it is not covered by the lace
Now remove the lace and you have eveey
delicate and beautiful figure raised upon
the glass. In this way delicate and beau
tiful figures of all kinds arc cut In glass
and at small expense. The workmen car
hold their hands under the blast without
harm, even when it is rapidly cutting away
the hardest glass, iron or stone; bat they
must look out for finger nails, for they vii
be whitfield off right hastily. If they put
on steel thimbles to protect the nails i
will do little good, for the sand will soor
wear them away; but IL they wrap q sof
piece of cstton around them they are safe
You will at once see the philosophy of 1t
The sand whittles away and destroys am
hard substance, even glass, but does no
affect substances that are soft and yielding
1 like wax, cotton or fine laces, or even tn
human hand.

DEAR SIR: Your letter, written early in

could not find 1t. My recollection OF itS
contents In that you inquired as to the re-
payment into the Treasury by Gen. Gar
field of the additional compensation due
him as a member of the Forty-second Con-
gress under the provisions OF the General
Appropriation act of March B, 1878.
The additional compensation due Ge:ner-
al Garfield was drawn by Mr.. Ordway, Ser
peanr- alarms of the House OF Representa-
tiyes, and paid by him into the treasury
an a miscellaneous revenue. receipt. The
money was drawn by Mr. Ordway on the
order OF General Garfield. The practice OF
the Sergeant. alarms is to take receipts
from members in blank, in anticipation OF
the dates at which they are TO become due.
and 10 pay their check on him by drawing
the money from the treasury on those re-
ceipts In this way be is IN measure the
banker of the members. General Garfield
had signed such receipts month after month
at the beginning of the month, one of such
being filled up by Mr.. Ordway and present.
ed to the treasury. At that time believe
General Garfield was out Of the city, but
happened to know that rs soon as the I'D
day of March this written order was deliv-
cred to Mr.. Ordway,-if he had not drawn
any money from the treasury on his ac-
eount. to close the account without draw
ing ID. and II be had drawn 1t to return It,
MIR. ordway then informed him it was nec-
essary for h,m to sign a special order on
the Treasurer If be wished IL drawn out and
covered In, otherwise Mr.. Garfield could
draw 1t any time within two years; where
upon Mr.. Garfield drew an order for ST.
54s. payable to the order of MIR. Ordway,to
he nv him covered into the treasury. This
was presented to the Treasurer and the
money turned over from the appropriation
account to the general account, SO that DO
norton Of IL ever left the treasury at all.
IL was simply transfer from the appro'

THE FRENCH JEsUITs.
They win NO. Come to America.
Philadelphia Times, July 3.

.E Fnllaucaphia itmer, Jury o.
Rev. Father p. A. Jordan, 8. j., of St.
Joseph's Roman Catholic Church, and Of
the most venerable and learned Priests of
the Order OF Jesuits in this country, said
yesterday that be did not not think any of
the fathers who have been expelled from
France would come to this country.
"They will have no trouble" he said,
"in nndIng homes. In fact, think that
most of them have already been provided
for. We have . large place in Monaco,
Italy, where some Of them will 60. Others
will 20 to the Isle Of Jersey, where we also
have large house, and others will proba-
bly, 90 to England. OF course the fathers
do not like to ba driven out of the homes
that they have made for themselves, but
their expulsion was not unexpected and
was unattended by any personal indigni-
ties, such as characterized the expulsion of
the fathers from Venice some years ago,
when they were driven out by mob.
The fathers do not feel as cad over the mat
ter as they would if the persecution had
been brought about by any fault of their
own-if they had been teaching false doc
trInes or anything of that kind. The pre-
tense for the persecution was that the or
der was hostile to the French Republic, but
that is false. We take no part in politics
at all. We do not even vote. We give our
allegiance to the dc facto government. In
stead of being In favor Of a monarchy we
are In favor of Republic. We believe in
the absolute separation of Church and
State. We believe that the United States
have the best form Of government in the
world. We don't like your public school
system. for we think the children should be
educated by the Church and not by the
| State, but we are not interfered with In any
of our churches and schools Most of the
Jesuits iu France are members of the old
families, therefore they are looked upon as
fayoring a monarchy. Of course the faith
ers have their personal preferences. Some
are Legisimists, sems Bonapartists and 9th
ers Republicans, but they take no part in
| politics st all. Here in our own house we
have some Democrats and some Republi-
cans. Some of us are very much pleased
with tn, nomination of MIR. Garfield and
Others Of us are very much pleased with
the nomination of Mr.. Hancock. We talk
the matter over among ourselves some
times, but we have nothing to do with pol
itics. We do not vote. The very law un-
der which the present persecution in France
is carried on was enacted under monarchy
more than two hundred years ago, because
we combated the so called doctrine that
kings ruled by divine right. Our philoso-
ply teaches that doctrine is false. God
did not choose the monarchial form of gov.
ernment for man. 1t vas a concession
which He made to human infirmities."
