It is found that sawdust can be
converted into a liquid wood"
and aferward into a solid, flexible,
and almost indestructible mass,
which, when Incorporated with
animal matter, rolled and dried,
can be used for the most delicate
impressions, as we'll as for the
formation of solid and durable
articles. To accomplish this the
method pursued is to immense the
dust of any kind Of wood in
diluted sulphuric acid, sufficiently
strong to affect the fbres, for
some days, the finer parts being
passed through a sieve, we'll stirred
and allowed 10 settle. The liquid
is drained from the sediment and

Country Papers.

The following is what the Gin.
cinnati Trade List thinks of those
characters who are all the time
complaining of their country
papers. and instead Of helping to
support them, send ON for a large
paper, and thus help to support
them
"A gentleman writes to US that
his country paper is so poor that
he has stopped it, therefore sends
US So for the Trade List. W.
repeat that we do not want
subscribers on these terms. A
mans country paper is worth the
price asked for it if it is not, it is
his fault. If the country paper is
properly encouraged, if may be
relied upon for Information of
more value to the people in whose
interest it is issued than can be
found in all the city papers in the
United States, No man can do
without the paper that publishes
the official advertisements of his
country, the court news, and other
intelligence. If the paper is poor,
the people are more at fault than
the publishers for not giving it a
liberal patronage. However poor
the paper may be, it is always
worth more than it costs to those
interested in the affairs of the
country.

The Cabinet.

The shell is burstsd and the
chicken is out looking for its
maiden worm. That is to say the
cabinet of President Garfield is
now an established fact. 1t has
been appointed and confirmed.

McVeagh, Pennsylvania Attor-
ney-general T.. James. (P.

General S. J. Kirkwood,

Robert Lincoln Of Illinois, Sc
cretary Of War /; VIM, H. Hunt
Of Louisiana, Secretary of the
Navy. These names are all more
or less familiar to our readers and
do not require special comment in
this place. It seems to be a
mathematical cabinet, the pieces
being selected with a view pri.
marily to giving due representa-.
ton to the various sec tons of the
country-or rather to the various
wings of the Republican patry.
1t is not an excessively strong
cabinet or a wonderfully great
cabinet, but it possesses quite as
much ability as the average

the border Of power and constitu-
tionally whispers in the ear of the

The late Senator Matt Carpen-
ter studied law with the great
Massachusetts, lawyer, Rufus
Choate. aud revered his memory
with Glial devotion. Choate is
said to have loved him greatly,
and predicted for him a career not
less brilliant than his own.
When the young student gradua'
ted from his Office he drew up for
him a great list of costly books
which he said he would need in
his Western practice. Carpenter
could have bought the State Of
Massachusetts Just as readily as he
could have bought that list.
But Choate astonished him still
more when he said: "You will
draw on my purse for these books,
and for all your other wants, until
you are established. Take all you
need; it does my heart good to
give it to you" He would take
no notes or other evidences of
Carpenters indebtedness. The
mopeywas scrupulously repaid to
the last cent, but with some
difficulty, for Choate would forget,
or pretend to forget, and gener-
ously denied important items in
the account.-States

MURDER OF HI Z A

The Nihilists have at last &C.
compllshed the work which they
have been plotting for several
years. Yesterday the Emperor
Alexander was MORALLY wounded
in the streets of St. Petersburg
and died shortly afterwards. The
attack upon bis life was as bold
as it was successful. Like former
attempts of the kind, only one or
two men were engaged in the as
sassination, and these male, seem.
ingly, no effort to conceal their
crime or effect an escape. Their
object was to kill the Car, and
no regard was shown for personal
consequences.
Whatever sympathy may be felt
for the political purposes Of the
Nihilists, the crime they have just
committed will meet with nothing
but execration in the United
States. The American people can.
not be brought to regard murder
as a proper or necessary means to
the attainment of political ends.
Secretary Blaine promptly voiced
their sentiments IN his telegram of
coincidence, wherein he properly
characterized the crime that had
just been committed.
The murdered Emperor was the
most liberal sovereign that ever
occupied the throne Of the Russias.
He did as much for the people as
the Great Peter did for the EN-.
pire. His emancipation of the
serfs was the grandest stride for
ward Russia has made. It was a
long step towards political liberty
as we'll as absolute grant of per-
sonal freedom. This was not,
r
however, sufficient for a small, but
increasing party, which insisted
upon a constitutional and repre-.
sentative governmental fact, an
entire reconstruction. The Gar
was not prepared to surrender his
authority ; the Nihilists refused
to be grateful for what he had
done, and declared war upon him
for what he refused to do. The
struggle he's gone on for years, all
the forces Of autocratic power
being called upon Oh the one side
and the vigilance and ingenuity Of
a determined oath.bound society,
permeating every class IN Russia,
on the other. It eliminated in
the bloody crime we relate this
morning.
The death of the Gar will me-
cessarily create a profound impress
sion throughout Europe. Its ef-
feet upon Russia must be start

ALL THINGS CHANGE.-We are
struck more and more forcibly
with this truthat the expiration of
each short day.
Changes is equally shared by all
created things, from the short.lived
butterfly, to the sturdy Oak Of a
century's growth. With some
things it is rapid and extensive,
with others almost imperceptible,
but as years pass on it manifests
itself all around US ; nothing
escaping the inevitable hand of
time. Not only do the most per-
feet models Of art suffer this con.
slant change, but the destructive
elements of the air, display their
power at the expense of Natures
most artistic designs ; and as each
year passes ny. the waving foliage
of the forest, and the green
carpeting of the earth, are wholly
different from those Of the
preceding.
During all the successive ages of
the past, our earth, once a burning
mass Of lava, has been slowly but
constantly changing !; and now we
behold every wave on its surface,
scenes Of enchanting beauty.

A Mute Man Speaks.

The East Portland (Oregon)
Telegram gives the following &C.
count Of the manner in which one
Of the mute inmates Of the Insane
Asylum near that city suddenly
recovered his speech : For years
Mr.. Anderson, a dumb inmate of
the asylum, has plodded along
attending to his duties as a trusty,
faithful being, unable to speak a
word. He was always in readl'
ness to assist the keepers in any
way within his power, in a cheer
full and contented manner. All
efforts to bring back the use OF his
vocal organ, which had been
silent for many years, were In
vain, and he was told that he
could never again speak. On
Sunday last the inmates were
given a romp in the handsome
grove, which is surrounded by a
high wall, in order to Sun them
selves. One of the inmates, a
rather wild individual, imagined
he was a squirrel, and away he
went scampering up one Of the tall
fir trees to its topmost branches,
and would neither return TO solid
ground for pleadings and threats.
As usual Anderson was near at
hand, and volunteered to go up
and bring him back. The poor. w
fortunates who were in the yard
at the time were greatly pleased,
and laughed and shouted joyfully
as Anderson climbed from bracnh
to branch toward the top. He had
climbed about thirty feet from the
ground when a limb broke and
down came Anderson bouncing
among the branches, finally setting
down upon the ground like the
hammer of a pile-driver. The
wardens expected to see him
killed or knocked senseless, but
they were doomed to astonishpent,
as Anderson sprang to his feet
and burst out in a volley OF
profanity that would have put a
trool er to blush. He kept up
swearing without intermission for
at least ten minutes, while every.
body was transfxed with astonish-
ment. He had recovered his
speech and to-day can talk as well
as any person, and to say that he
is delighted in consequence Of his
fall is drawing it mildly.
