Dr. Charles Y. Jackson, who died at Somer- vile, Mass, Sunday, was one of the lights of physical science in America. His original in- vestigations were of the utmost interest and importance; but he never realized from them the advantage which he and his friends were confident he was entitled to. His long con- troversy with Professor Morse relating to the electric telegraph is hardly remembered in this generation, but excited much interest in the early history of telegraphy. The great discovery of his life. however, as he regard ed it, was the use of anesthesis to destroy pain. His claim was disputed at the outset, and to the end

A Vaxpayer's Quer1ess To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 In the Register of Friday I read the fol lowing:
 In speech delivered to the East Haven Republicans last night, by Postmaster Sper ", he declared that when Hancock is elected five shall have to pension the rebel soldiers. J Mir. Sperry knew that this statement was un- true, or his intelligence is less than he is usually given credit for.
 From the evidence already accumulated re- garding these and kindred claims, I am con- vinced, as all reasonable men ought to be, that what Mir. sperry said is true, and that it is just the intelligence which he is usually given credit for that leads him to the conclu- sion he has reached Let me interrogate a little and see, stating only actual facts:
 Why has the State of Missouri bureau, established by act of Legislature, in which any citizen of that State may file any claim he has against the United States for property destroyed by the Union army or for slaves that were freed, and receive in return a cer- tifcate to that effect, as many have?
 Why is there kept in the State records of Georgia a list of the names of former slave owners2
 Why has the State of Maryland in its con- stitution. adopted in 1867, clause confer ring on the General Assembly the following power 'eThey shall adopt such measures as they may deem expedient to obtain from the United States compensation for such slaves, and to receive and distribute the same equitably to the persons entitled.''

 been visiting here for the past week had an ancounter with him on Friday, and was shocked and grieved that such conduct could be allowed to go unchecked in a Christian community. Thesyoung clergyman set out to call upon the Rev. MT. Mackonochie, at Nor way, and when he boarded tramway car on the Kingston road he found himself face to face with a dull-eyed young man. The car had not proceeded far when he edged over to where the clergyman sat, and considerably startled the latter by saying, with a tragic whine in his voice, 'sYoung man, if you continue in the course you are pursuing, you will surely go to hell" The clergyman,
 thinking that he had maniac for a travelling companion, went to the other end of the car, but the dull-eyed young man fol lowed him. repeating the assertion that the clergyman was bound hellward, and, produc- ing Bible, declared that he could prove it.
 The clerical visitor was very much pained at the notions of the man, and endeayored to quiet him. but without success. For mile or so he ranted and raved about the wicked
 ness of all mankind save himself, while his unoffending victim said not a word. When they had gone some distance Roman Cath
 olic priest entered the car, and the pale youth immediately bounced upon him. The priest dealt kindly with the hot gospeler, and even smiled upon him when he shook the Bible under his nose. He applied such epithets as heretic, pagan, idolator to the priest, but the latter kept his temper and met all attacks good -naturedly, while the young clergyman sat in silence blushing spectator of the pitt ful antics of the man. He carried his attack still further by declaring that the priests teachings had tendency to destroy belief in God, and when the answer came that he was

] The Archbishop of Cashel has written l letter to Father Ryan, of Tipperary for gen I eral circulation among the Irish peasantry l He urges them to bid defiance to the House 1 of Lords by proclaiming the peoples resolve to live in the land in which they were born, and be fed, together with their families, out of the produce of the fields, which they, and they alone, have titled and toiled upon and rendered fruitful. The Archbishop sets St. Paul against the House of Lords: ''The hus- bandman that labors must partake of the fruits" c Tim. ii, 8. "No,' the Peers are
 represented as saying; 'St. Paul was wrong in that and obviously Sooialistic in his teach
 ing, for the rent must be paid first, however
 i'll it may fare with the husbandman and as
 certain dangerous theories to the contrary
 are being propounded nowadays by irreigious
 men, we wish by this one overwhelming vote
 to have it made known to them and to the en-
 pire that even for an hour we will not part
 with any of the chartered privileges of our
 class, and that consequently our wretched
 Irish dependents may now, as ever, be mer
 cilessly flung out by us on the roadside be-
 cause they cannot possibly manage at one
 and the same time to pay us our rent and
 preserve their families from perishing." The
 Archbishop is confident that the great states
 man, now happily conyalescent, who stands
 at the head of Her Majesty's ministers, and
 whose good will to Ireland has been abund-
 antly made manifest, will see in due course
 that the voice of the peoples representative shall not be trifed with or set aside.

 Why is there a bill before Congress to pen sion the Mexican soldiers, the most of whom are in the South, including Jefferson Davis Why are applications now being made out, in due form, by rebel soldiers, for pensions, and sent to Washington, copies of which are in the hands of gentlemen in this city2
 Why is there pending now in Congress 8 bill introduced by southern member to in- crease the judges of the Supreme Court to twenty-one, thereby giving the appointing of twelve new ones to Democratic President if one is elected, and in this way secure the practical annulment of the Fourteenth amend ment?
 Why have seventy-fve Union soldiers, most of whom were wounded in the war and some of whom lost limbs, been removed from of fees about the Capitol, and eighty eight Con- federate soldiers installed in office in that building?
 These facts do exist, and the reason is that the South means, if she can secure the elec- ton of President of her choice by her 138 solid electoral votes and fragment of those of the North, to collect from the rich and prosperous North all the direct losses she has suffered from the war, and to put her sol diers on an equal footing with the Union sol dier, both as regards pensions and holding official positions. No one who sees how far the South has already succeeded with this scheme will doubt her success as to the rest if she succeeds with northern aid in electing the next President. A TAXPAYER.

The clergymen sighed with re- lief when the journey was ended and they were rid of the presence of the poor fanatic. Whether this is the man who goes about the city with transparency, saying that all men are on the downward track, is not known. 1t IS not many months since he stood at the gates of the Horticultural Gardens when an audience was coming from concert, and shr1eked about eternity.

Attorney General Devens says that the re- ports he receives from many of the officers of his department in the South convince him that if the Democratic party were to gain control of the national administration whole sections would lapse into condition of un- rebuked lawlessness and anarchy. The local authorities, he says sustained by public sen- timent, frequently place themselves in the attitude of open hostility to the United States, and the higher authorities, fearful of offending this sentiment, give witness to this state of affairs by refusing moral support to the federal officials The marshal of Ala bama reports that he cannot raise 8 sufficient force to serve a process in oovington county

The Cincinnati Commercial casts some more light upon the operations of ''the poor ! mans friend'' whom the Democrats have ] nominated for Vice President. When the long lists of foreclosures appeared some weeks since Mir. English's friends set up the defence that he was very large loser by being compelled to take the mortgaged prop erty. In examining this defence the corre- spondent of the Commercial proceeded to compare the amount of his sheriff's bids with the assessed value of the property in 1879, teen years The result is thus stated This appraisement is rated at the actual cash value of the property, what 1t would
 bring under the hammer, while the
 active commercial value is estimated one-
 third higher. It will be seen that the poor
 mans friend holds sheriff's deed to three
 hundred and ninety-two pieces of property
 in the city of Indianapolis, nearly all having
 been secured within the past two years.
 Many of these, it will be observed, are bits
 of real estate which belonged to laboring
 men, who had put up partial improvements
 on their property, and who are now tenants
 of the Octopus. On perhaps nine-tenths of this property four-ffths of the original pur- chase money had been paid, the foreclosure generally being taken on either the last or next to the last note. When these circum- stances considered, and it is observed that have neither included list of his tax title deeds nor those secured from the city on purchase of precepts for street1mprovements the aggregate of his extortion is absolutely appalling, touching it does between the total of his sheriffs' bids and the lowest as- sessed value of property in fifteen years the enormous sum wrung from the poor of $195,- 5O6S

"A correspondent of the Louisville
Courier Journal tells story of q case in
regard to patent on corset, which re-
Gently came up in the United States SUI
prime Court. The judges of this august
court are all very grave and dignifed
gentlemen, and the black silk gowns
which they wear add to the .solemnity
Of their bearing. The corset patent was
delicate subject TO bring into this au
gust court, but the contending parties
had gone to law on the question as to
whether "coutil" was cut on the straight
or bias, and in regard to the whalebone
castings. One patentee claimed that he
had improved upon the original design;
that the first patentee's corset placed
the whalebone in the casing, and that it
had to be fastened with needle and
thread; that his patent had the advan-
tage of an invention which closed up the
top and bottom Of the opening. The
lawyer who was arguing the case
brought lot of the corsets in court and
distributed them to each of the Judges
that they might examine the invention
as he explained it. The novel spectacle
was presented of each one of these gen.
tlemen timidly scrutinizing the mys.er-
les of the bias and straight, and pushing
whalebones in and out of the castings.
All tried to look knowing and capable of
giving an astute opinion; they whis-
pered TO one another, of course exchang-
ing only legal knowledge, but the ludic-
rous situation was appreciated by the
lawyers and spectators.

Denestication Of the Banale.

TIE early explorers Of the Mississippi
Valley believed that the buffalo might
be made to take the place Of the domes-
tic OK in agricultural pursuits, and at the
same time yield fleece Of wool equal
in quantity TO that Of the sheep; but no
persistent attempts have yet been made
to utilize it by d6mestication. That the
buffalo calf may be easily reared and
thoroughly tanned has been conclusiveiy
proved, but little attention has been
paid to thei: reproduction in con-
finement, or to training them to labor.
During the last century they were do
INVESTIGATED in various parts Of the colo
mics, and interbred with domestic cows,
producing q half-brced race which is
fertile, and which readily amalgamates
with the domestic cattle. The half
breed are large, fine animals, possessing
most of the characteristics of their wild
parentage. They can be broken TO the
yoke, but are not so sober and manage
bic in their work as the tame breed
sometimes, for instance, making dash
for the nearest water, with disastrous
results to the load they are drawing. 1t
is somewhat difficult, also, to make q
fence which shall resist the destructive
strength of their head and horns. But
the efforts at tanning buffaloes have not
been many or seriously carried on, and
no attempt appears to have been made
TO perpetuate an unmixed domestic race.
Probably after few generations they
would lose their natural untractablcness,
and when castrated would doubtless
form superior working cattle, from their
greater size, strength. and natural agil-
ity.-Ernest Lngersoli, in Popular SCI
ence MOlthku.

Among tho stories which are told
at st. Petersburg of the attempts made
by the Nihilists to penetrate into the
Winter Palace is the following: Gen.
Gourko, when Governor of st. Peters,
burg, had the right of entering at any
time into the Emperor's room without
being announced. Once, however, the
doorkecper, seeing something unusual
about his appearance, stopped him say
ing it would be necessary to inform the
Emperor of his arrival. The General
objected at first, but, finding that the
doorkeeper only grew more suspicious,
ultimately agreed to his being an
nounced. The doorkeeper then told
the Emperor of his doubts; upon which
the latter went to writing table in his
room, which was connected by tele-
graph with Gen. Gonrko's residence,
and telegraphed, Where is Gourko?"
at home," was the reply. This, of
course settled the point; the false
Gourko was arrested, and turned out to
be a member Of the Revolutionary Com
mittee.
