The Ohio Man in Politics.

A member Of the Yale class of 1861
surprised his classmates at their recent
twenty years meeting, by coming back
as the Mayor of thriving city on the
Pacific slope, to which he had gone from
Cleveland few years ago. As he had
been very quiet man in college, and
eschewed politics, and was supposed to
have no ambition for public distinction,
his classmates demanded an explanation.
"Well," he said, 81 was living in peace
under my own vine and figtree on the
outskirts of the city, with no thought OF
office, when / was appalled, by visit
from committee, who rendered me the
nomination for Mayor. I told them ]
had no tastes and no qualifications for
such place, and peremptorily declined.
They left, but as they passed out one OF
them stopped on the threshold, and said
reproachfully, Its too bad, for you're
the last man there is left The next
morning they appeared on the same err
rand and received the same reply, and
as they went away the same man lin
gered to repeat, It's too bad, for you're
the last one left. What do you mean
10y such nonsense said !. Isn't the
city full of people who would like the
place and would fill it well?' ooh.
pshaw,' he reioined; why, you know
that Jones is Treasurer, and Brown is
City Clerk, and Smith he's Police Judge.
and jenkins is Auditor, and you're the
only Ohio man left. +" The class upani.

for taking office when Ia, Ohio feelings

New Method of Generating Steam.

A French manufacturing firm, Messrs.
Serpollet, have patented peculiar
method of generating steam. At each
stroke of the piston of the engine GER
tain quantity of water is projected
against two strongly heated plates. The
steam so produced goes directly into the
cylinder, so that in this arrangement not
only special generator, but also the
valve system for the entering steam is
superfluous. The mode of action is
similar to Hooks petroleum motor. In
the example given in Dingier's Journal
the vaporizing surface consists of two
metallic cones, one within the other,
with all interval of about 0.04 inch be-
tween. The hollow space is divided
into two chambers, each of which is con-
nected with one side of the cylinder.
The gases play first upon the inner
surface of the cone, and then upon the
outer.

COMMUNICATIONS.

Another Complaint from tE. F. M." To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 In my communication of Monday, which you courteously noticed by offering the use of your columns for full discussion of the Water question, I had occasion to remark upon the misleading manner in which the question seemed to me to be presented in your editorial and communicated articles, and while am not prepared to discuss the subject in a manner which the importance would warrant, would again trespass on your space for the purpose of pointing out another misleading statement that has been forced before the public notice in several ways allude to the statement heralded by an anonymous writer in the EUe7atTg Regtster that ia better water supply than the water works can furnish could be obtained by the city within twelve miles distance" Now what has this to do with the question at is sue? Two water companies cannot exist to- gether in this city. It has been tried and with the result that one absorbed the other in self defence, and under the advice of com petent engineers bought up and control all the remaining near supply. The idea that the city could bring in new supply from distance of twelve miles and compete with the New Haven Water company, whose SUD- ply is only two miles distant, is not reasona- bly, entertained by anyone, and if such statements are made for any other purpose than misleading think it difficult to believe it. So, Mir. Editor, I beg again to ask from some competent writers on the subject com munications on the real question at issue, viz, Ought the city to own or control the water supply provided for its citizens?

 What Genius has Accomplished fn tn c
 Fields of Science and Art-New Idea .
 Brought Out and old Ones Improved
 Upon and Utilized.
 From the New York Star.
 The last ten years in the history of Ameri- can inventions have been wonderfully pro- life in important results. To say nothing of the telephone, the photograph, the electric light and the systems of automatic and quad ruplex telegraph, llssof which have been so full ly described that their principles are per- fectly familiar to the general public, there have been numerous discoveries and inn proyements which, in their way, have brought about revolutions in the arts and sciences. The agent said: "Among the most important of recent discoveries are improve ments in the manufacture of vulcanized india rubber in it's various applications, which have resulted in making it the best and cheapest material for superior and highly finished combs. These combs, in fiexibility and durability, are equal to the best horn and shell, and are now extensively manufac- tured. The principal factories for the mak- ing of rubber combs are located in Connecti- cut :"
 The next invention of any importance was begging machine. Pegged shoes made by hand were manufactured in large quantities a long time before the invention of this ma- chine, but the manufacture was, and is, con- fined chiefly to mems boots and shoes. and to the coarser kinds of ladies' shoes. Lynn, the great centre of the manufacture of 1a- dies shoes, was never engaged to any extent in the manufacture of begged shoes. The introduction of this machine largely increas- ed the production, and of course diminished the cost of the product. There have been many improvements in the stitching machine, the product originally of the mechanical genius of Elias Howe. This machine was first perfected in 1845. and patented in 1S46. Prior to this wonderful invention, ladies' shoes were ssbound,p as it was called by hand. It's introduction speedily revolutions ized this department of industry. A single

A ADIsInterested Citizens Opinion.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 I am much surprised to find that many of the public misunderstood the Water purchase question An impression that seems to pre- vail with the average reader is that a ring of politicians and designing men have gotten up this scheme to buy Water Company, :" with the express view of forming a corrupt and demorelizing commission to betray the citizens herewith forever afterward. There is also an impression that it is to add to the burdens of taxation.
 are circulated so industriously, but some way has got to be devised to check them or many of our citizens will form mistaken premises vote against the project, and then have cause to regret it as long as they live.
 The Water Company has had valuable franchise for years. The great cloud that has hung over their. stock and made it worth only 16O has been that this city might take the works at any time within the past twenty years at cost and interest. This agreement was made in consideration of the valuable franchises and privileges given the company by the city. This twenty years expires in February next. If the city does not take it under this agreement before that time it is lost to it forever, and 1t becomes private monopoly. How dangerous 8 monopoly it will be each citizen can judge for himself.
 I am told that the company has gradually absorbed every stream and pond that is avail able.for our future supply in any direction. It is plain, then, that our only course now lays in buying the works. It will not add one mill to the taxes. but the water rates paid only by actual takers will pay all ex- penses and Improvements, all interest on the debt, and leave surplus profit of forty to fifty thousand dollars 8 year to lessen our other taxes or to pay for the works them selves in very few years The whole ex- pense of the department will be much less than we lay out on our public schools, .and will furnish no more inducement for dishon- est rings than the schools have done. The position of Water Commissioner would be purely an honorary one, and if the board gave any cause of dissatisfaction to the pub lie they have only to put them out at the next election The talk about dishonesty has no foundation in the mind of anyone who gives it serious thought The city will make an irreparable mistake if it fails to take the waterworks now, in the opinion of

expense for fences in these States in 1879 was $1o,s2s, TAG. In this State the amount expended was $64s,s75. It is estimated that the cost of the fences of the United Stat es exceeds the entire value of the live stock of the country, including horses, mules, cattle,
 sheep, and it has been seriously urged that fences should be abolished and the plan of herding stock, as practiced to great extent in France and Belgium, be adopted in this country. The fence question, in view of forest fires, the demand for railroad ties and the diminishing area of lumber, becomes one of great economical interest and importance.

A Chinese philosopher, writing in the lsAenpoo, claims that the reason why. so many rulers in Europe and America are assassi- mated, and so few in China, is because the former countries do not possess the elaborate ceremonials of the latter. 'He says :: sswesterns possess few ceremonies; superiors and interiors are commingled, and subjects venture on their poisonous plots. China has her shortcomings, and her ceremonial may be excessive, but the highest authority never falls into such abeyance. Western. cere- nionial is scant, and the chief power is often laid low. The lack of ceremony in the West brings constant trouble and fear of death to the Prince, but the excess of it in China saves her at any rate from this and makes the State stable The guards of the Russian Emperor and his inability to go abroad, though preserving him, are not so efficient as would be the enforcement of decorum The title of prince and minister. without the ceremonial, bring inevitable reyolution.p
