Louisiana Yellow Pine.

A correspondent of the Picayune,
says: "The building of railway lines
that will center at Alexandria is likely
to make this city lumber manufactur-
ing point. The pine section of the State
lies north Of Alexandria in the parishes
of Grant, Winn, jackson, Bienyille, etc;
while the Sabine River and its tributa-
ries furnish outlets for floating logs to
Alexandria. Some parties from the
northwest who have ample capital are
now engaged in selecting public lands
along the Saline, preparatory to develop
ing the lumber trade and transferring
capital from Michigan to Louisiana. The
demand for lumber in the American
markets exceeds hesupply. Prices have
strong upward turn, and, unlike cotton,
there is no danger of an oversupply.
We wish these parties success in their
undertaking.
Jay Gould and associates are running
trial line for road from Alexandria
northward via Monroe. A trial line is
also being surveyed under the same
management from Camden, Ark, direct
to Alexandria. The surveyors on the
latter line entered the State near the
northwest corner of Union parish. The
line passes near Vernon, in Jackson
parish, and from this point to Alexan-
dria it will pass through level, pine
section. Should the direct route from
Camden to Alexandria be adopted, nu-
merous sawmills will spring up along
the line above Alexandria.

WOOdcOck Telegraphy.

On a number of occasions I have
closely observed the woodcock's sys-
tenn Of telegraphy. The birds mandi-
bles are furnished with extremely sensi-
tive nerves, so arranged that when the
point of the bill rests upon the ground
the slightest sounds are conveyed to its
brain. Standing upon the water-satur-
ated earth of spouty bog, our bird
utters faint, keen cry, scarcely audible
at two rods distance, then Immediately
let's fall his head till the tip of his bill
touches the ground, and listens atten-
lively. If his mate hears him she
replies, puts her bill on the ground, and
listens in turn. So the love messages
go back and forth as long as the birds
have anything to say. This sort of
thing usually happens in the soft twi-
lights from May to the middle of August,
though occasionally I have seen and
heard it in the broad light of a summer
day. In June, 1868, made the follow
ing note: To-day sketched wood
cock in the listening attitude. Shall
try to get further studies"
Five years later I succeeded in getting
three more sketches and last year 1880
I got four more. Many of these and
kindred sketches have been obtained at
the end of indescribable care and labor
The woodcock is SO shy, so attentive, so
sensitive, that the least sound will cause
it to skulk and hide-a thing it does
with even greater cunning and success
than the quail. The only way in which
have been able to get near enough to
the bird to sketch its natural attitude
has been to crawl on the wet ground
through tangled weeds and shrubs until
I reached a hiding place on the border
Of its feeding range, and there patiently
and silently watch for its coming. This
l hayedone over and over again for days
together before getting sight OF the
bird. Chicago Tribune.

PRICE THREE CENTS.
The Telegraph in Arctic Exploration.
It is suggested by Mr.. James Gamble,


It is suggested by Mr.. James Gamble,
general superintendent Western Union
Telegraph Company at San Francisco,
that profitable use might be made of
the electric telegraph in Arctic explora-
ton. His plan would be to use light
steel wire-say No. 20 gauge-weighing
about twenty pounds to the mile. The
wire, coiled on reels, could be hauled
on sledges, either by men or dogs, over
the snow or ice, paying it out as the adj
vance exploring party went along. By
this means the party would keep in con-
slant communication with their base of
supplies. They would have no cause
for. uneasiness about getting lost or be-
yond the means of rescue, as they would
be able at any moment to call for aid.
With this feeling of the certainty of re-
lief in case of accident, they would not
hesitate to push their explorations
to q distance far beyond what would be
considered safe in the absence of means
OF Geographic communication with the
main body. And should any accident
happen to the advance party of explo-
rers, or should they require further
quantity Of supplies, the line of wire
would serve to guide those going to the
rescue straight to the spot where the
explorers were camped. It would also
serve as guide for their return, mate
rally lessening the chances of danger
to life and loss of the party. Having
established base of supplies at some
central point, there would be nothing to
prevent several exploring parties being
sent out at the same time in different
directions, they reporting each night to
the central station the progress and
observations made during the day.
Directed in this way the practical
could, from the telegraphic reports
sent in, be determined upon, Eand
much time that would otherwise be
wasted in vain endeavors to make way
over barriers of ice, be saved. AS hard
frozen ground, dry snow or ice is per-
feet insulator, no poles to string the
wire would be required. It could be
paid out on the snow or ice by the party
as they went along. The generally &C
cepted theory of those familiar with the
| Arctic regions is that the ice is seldom
more than five or six feet in thickness,
so that by boring through it with com
mon drill or through the frozen ground,
there would be no difficulty in obtain
ing good ground connection to COM
plete the electric current. 1t would not
be necessary to carry any battery mate
rial. One main battery at the central
station would be all that is required.
| For distance of 100 to $50 miles tel
ephones could beused, dispensing with
practical telegraph operators. Still, it
might be advisable to have some of the
party possessed of a practical knowledge
of telegraphy.
AT twenty pounds to the mile 100
miles Of wire would only weigh 1000
pounds. 1t could be wound on reels in
size easy to handle. The cost of steel
wire Of that guage is about twenty cents
pound, so that the total expense, in
Guiding cost of reels, winding, ETC.,
would not exceed 81 LOCO.
