Mirror Telegraphy.

The use of the heliograph,
which has become SO common
of late in the operations of the
British armies i'll South Africa
and Afghanistan, seems likely
to very largely supersede the
telegraph by armies in the field.
Field telegraphy formed an i'm
portant feature of the Franco
German campaign, but it is
scarcely necessary to say that
in the case Of the usual tcle-
graphic system, the amount of
wire to be carried, the posts,etc.,
entail a pretty formidable a
mount of weight for difficult
transportation, not to mention
the time, short as it seems, ta-
ken in setting mp the posts
more important still is the ne
cessity of keeping the route O.
pen. The heliograph, or mirror
telegraph, consists merely of a
ten inch mirror with q stand up
OH which it can swing either
vertically or horizontally and a
rod with movable stud like the
"sight' of a rifle. A clear spot
is obtained in the center of the
mirror through which the opcr-
ator can look towards the point
he desires to signal, and the
stud on the rod which is set up
in front of the mirror has TO be
so adjusted that the mirror, the
stud, and the distant station are
in line. The operator then
knows that every time his mir
ror flashes light on the stud it
will be seen st the distant point.
He can then telegraph over the
heads of the cnemy,it necessary,
and to distance of fifty miles.
In flat countries, where no ele-
waited point can be obtained
whereupon to erect the hello
graph stand, We presume sta
tioEary balloons could be made
to answer the purpose.

A Bashful Young Mans

Some people never seem to

tie, who was silently squirming
on straightforward chair in a

bic for a human being to en-

No More Cannibalism.

ID. w. DeVoIaux, the newly
appointed Governor Of the Can
nibal Islands, says imam inter-
view recently published:
"Cannibalism is a thing Of the
past. No more of it is ever
seen or will be heard of again.
The natives have become Chris
tians through the agency of the
Wesleyan Churches and of Ro-
man Catholic missionaries. I'm
1876 there were some ten thou
sand Cannibals who chiefly resi-
ded in the mountains interior of
the VIII Leyu. They committed
serious outrages upon the coast
natives, but ultimately they were
subdued by the other natives, and
to-day they are peaceful and 10y
al as one could wish them to be.
The ex-King, Cakoban, recent
ly in speech addressed at a
meeting Of chiefs, gave his opin-
ion that tAe natives had never
been SO well off as they now are
under British protection. Two
of his sons are sub-Governors Of
different Provinces, and exercise
great influence over the natives,
as did the ex-King.

An Army Adventure.
October Californian. !

A battery of the First Artill-
cry halted one night during the
seven days fight in a little clear
ing. The men lay down, un-
hitching their horses, but leav-
ing them in harness. The First
Sergeant, now an honored Off
Ger of the Third Artillery, told
me he got up and walked toward
one side of the clearing. He
was halted and turned back by
Il sentinel. Going toward the
other side, he was again chal-
Ienged:
"Who comes thar?"
The voice struck him. He
replied, "Friend," and said
"What regiment is that?"
The answer came, 'Seventf
Alabama"
"What regiment is that or
the other side?"
"Fifth Georgia." replied the
sentinel. "What battery is
that?"
Here was q situation. The
Sergeant naturally didn't know
the name of the battery in the
rebel army. Hesitation would
have been fatal. By a lucky
inspiration he replied: Gone of
Stuart's batteries, knowing that
Jeb Stuart commanded theil
cavalry.
ooh" said the other, "ther
you's a hoss battery"
"Yes," said c.. "Good
night" F"
He Immediately awoke the
Captain, who rather angrily
said: "NVhat the deuce is the
matter noww
"Excuse me, Captain" said
the Sergeant, "but we've camp
ed between a Georgia and an
Alabama regiment.
1t is needless to say the Cap
tain got up. Horses were hitch
ed in quietly, and the battery
withdrew from between the
sleeping regiments, who never
knew Of the prize that was with
in their grasp.

THE LAPSE OF SUMMER,

Fair days of Summer, lapsing by
On Times swift, airy wing,
Your waning moments, as they fly,
Ger us their halo fling.
Gay season, glorious Summers reign,
Crowned with thy ripened grace
Bright months, when tender Loves re
frain
Echoes through charmed space!
The purple songster's requiem
Thrills softly Summers air,
'Tis meet that brighter hopes begem
These gala days so rare.
The air teens with low insect hum,
When dies Summers last day,
While faintest shades the skies iIlume,
Fleck'd by yon clOudlets gray.
Bright Summertime, thy tender wiles
Throw Ger us deepest spell;
Fair season, to thy lovely smiles
'Tis sad to say farewell.
Glad months, unto us ever kind,
Your absence we deplore-
Mid fading flowers must sit resigned,
Since your sweet reign is Ger.
Fair Summer makes her dying plants,
And gently fades away;
Sweet Summer, with her mingled scents,
Is hasting TO decay!
'Tis gone! The Summer-days are done
Pale Autumn tints the sky,
Of her sweet moments, left are none
She ever blooms TO die!

Refusing to Kiss a Girl.
New York World. !

Barryville, Sullivan County,
n. Y, lies opposite Shohola,
Penn. It's District school is
taught by young man named
Reuben Frazer. George Shik,
aged twelve years, was one of
his scholars. Shik is q mis-
chievous boy, and the other day
he tripped up a girl about his
own age as she was passing out
of the school-room door. He
said it was an accident, but the
girl went back and slapped his
face. He struck her, and the
teacher called him up and fog
ged him with a stick. Then he
was ordered to beg the girls
pardon and shake hands with
her. This the boy did. The
school-master then said that
Shik, to make full amends, must
kiss the girl, but this he refused
positively to do. His refusal
brought him another whipping.
Still he said he would not kiss
the girl. Then he was flogged
for the third time and sent home.
Believing that the teacher had
no right to Insist on their sons
kissing any of the girls that at
tended school with him, and that
he had punished the boy unjust
!y, the boys parents had the
teacher arrested on a charge Of
assault and battery. He was
given a hearing before Justice
of the Peace Stidd, who sustain
ed the teachers cause and order
ed his discharge. 1t is said this
case will be carried into the
County Courts,

CURIOUS EXPERIMENT
Boiling Water Successfully in g
Sheet of Paper.

Nature is publishing a series
of attractive articles on"Physics
Without Apparatus" In the
latest number are given expert
ments for boiling water and
melting lead on a piece of paper.
Take piece of paper and fold it
up, as schoolboys do into a
square box without a lid. Hang
this up to walking stick by
four threads, and support the
stick upon books or other con-
venient props. Then Il lamp or
taper must be placed under this
dainty caldron. In a few min
utes the water will boil. The
only fearis lest the threads should
catch fire and let the water spill
into the lamp and over the table.
The flame must, therefore, not
be too large. The paper does
not burn, because it is wet; and
even if it resisted the wet it will
not burn through, because the heat
impaired to it on one side by the
fame would be very rapidly
conducted away by the water on
the other.
Another experiment of sim
liar nature, but perhaps even
more striking, is as follows:
Twist up the edges of a common
playing card or other bit of card
board, so as to fashion it into a
light tray. On this tray place
a layer of small shots or bits OF
lead, and heat it over the flame
of a lamp. The lead will melt,
but the card will not burn. 1t
may be eharred a little round
the edges, but Immediately below
the lead it will not be burned,
for here again the lead conducts
| off the heat on one side as fast
as it is supplied on the other.

A Farmers Offset.

employed On a farm in this coun-
ty several months entered suit
against his employer the other

suit was on trial in Justice AL

the plaintiff had a clear case.
He gave dates and figures in. u
straightforward way, and he
seemed a very honest man. As
the farmer took the stand, he
said:

days we had a regular knock
down over the whale swallowing
Jonah. The man who run the
mower got to arguing about
Sampson, and drove over a stump
and damaged the machine to the
tune of Sl8, and the very next
day my boy broke his leg while

Sunday School.

A ASunday-school superintend-
ent writes to the Christian at
Work as follows:
Isuperintend aSunday-school
Many of the young men who al
tend come down to the school
with cigars in their mouths.
Some of the young ladies' in the
church, have requested me to
bid this conduct on the part
of our scholars. / desire to re-
spect their wishes, but am not
sure that the young men are
doing anything out Of the way.
| do not smoke myself, but many
better men do, and seem to think
it a good thing. Last year l
went on an excursion with a
ministerial party. They were
representative men in their va
rious denominations, and it is
within the truth TO say that one
half of them smoked. They did
this openly, and in sight of all
the men and boys who congre-
gated to see them pass. This
occurrence led me to reconsider
my former opinions, ,and to ques-
ton, after all, which are right,
the good women of the church
or the smoking boys of the
Sunday-school. Now, this ques-
ton ought to be settled one way
or the other by our moral teach
ers. Ifsmoking is good thing,
they ought, by word as we'll as
example, to encourage the boys
in theircongregation to learn the
habit. If it is bad thing, and
the Christian reformers of our
time are right in trying to dis
suade men from the habit, then,
| say, it is burning shame that
they have not only the evil itself
to contend gwith, but the exam
pie of so many leading cler-
.gymen working continually a
gainst them.

Origin Of the Horseshoe Su-
perSEitiOn.

In the early times, says a wri-
ter in Baldwin's sMonthly, y,among
the Celtic race an effigy of the
patron saint, SO common in
churches and temples, was much
used in the dwellings and work
shops of the people, as a so-call-
ed protection against i'll fortune.
The ''glory" above the head of
these figures-which latter was
often rudely carved in wood and
painted-was represented by a
circular piece of polished metal,
to convey the effect OF the shin
ing halo of nimbus, frequently
seen in illustrations of the .Vir-
gin and other Scripture subjects.
Often this metal nlmbus was of
semi-circular form; and after the
figure itself has disappeared by
reason of decay, the nimbus re-
manned and was suspended III
some prominent place at the en-
trance door, or other point COM
manding view. The effigies in
question were not uncommonly
seen by the side of the door
way. In course of time the
nimbus was much used as
substitute for the latter, and was
sold in shops for this purpose.
The tradition of good luck as
embodied in the horseshoe the
ory may thus be easily traced.
since it became a common oc-
currence, in the due course of
time, for the faithful adherent
in the belief in charms and SYM
bols, to adopt the horseshoe
worn to brightness, in the alb
sence Of any other, which he nail
ed overhis cottage-door. Hence
a piece of metalof this shape be-
came associated in the common
mind with supernatural presence
and care, in keeping with the
belief attaching 10 the original
figure of the patron Saint.

Distrustful of His Followers.
jackson Tribune and Sun. ]

"Mr. Wilson, the boilers candidate for
Governor, says he will be elected unless
the railroads put large amount of money
in the campaign "
The just inference from this is
that Mr.. Wilson believes that
the dear people are corrupt and
can be bribed to vote against
their wishes. Indeed there is no
other possible deduction from
his language. He fears the mon
ey of the railroads in the canvass,
because he has no faith in the
honesty of the people. 1t is
perhaps perfectly natural that
one whose public record has
been so crooked as Mr.. Wilson's,
who is now engaged in stirring
up the worst passions Of his fel-
low-cft4zens, whose mission is
demagoguery and Office at the
expense Of the good name and
most.vital interests Of his State,
should place so low an estimate
upon the morals of the people as
to believe they can be bribed to
vote against their Judgment or
wishes. We are not at all sur
prised at Mr.. Wilson's fears, for
whenever a man engages in a
work of questionable integrity
he is sure to grow suspicious of
even his followers. For our part,
we do not believe the people of
Tennessee can be bribed, or that
anybody wants to make the eff
fort.
