A nnrinns Mission.

Count Constantine Branicd and
Baron Robert de Billing leave Paris
shortly, says Figaro, upon an interest
ing mission, They are going to visit
the Sahara and the Red sea in order to
take observation regarding the difficult
ties which lie in the way Of NJ. de Les
seps' projects. The indefatigable III.
de Lesseps has long designed pouring
the waters Of the sea upon the sands Of
the desert, and converting the Sahara
into g vast ocean. This enterprise must
temporarily yield to the construction
Of the Panama canal. But it is dear to
TO the heart Of the illustrious engineer.
He will certainly execute it sooner or
later. NJ. de Lesseps loves Africa like
a fatherland His father, NJ. Matthew
de Lesseps was twenty years consul
general at Tunis, and he himself was
born there.
The voyages of Count Branicki and
the Baron de Billing has also an artistic
object in view. The soil Of Africa
hides in its depths many souvenirs Of
antique art. Last year, among the
ruins Of Carthage, an admirable statue
of gold was found, which a Russian had
the good fortune to purchase for 20, 600
francs-iust the value Of the metal

Hints 70 Callers On the Sick.

1. Only call at the door unless you
are sure your friend is able to see you
without harm.
2. Enter and leave the house, and
move about the room quickly.
8. Garry a cheerful face, and speak
cheerful words.
4. In order to cheer, you need tell no
lies.
5. If your friend is very sick, do not
fall into gay and careless talk IN the at
tempt to be cheerful.
6. Do not ask questions, and thus
Oblige your friend to talk.
z. Talk about something outside, and
not about the disease and circumstances
of the patient
8. Tell the news, but net the list Of
the sick and dying.
9. If possible, carry something with
you to please the eye and relieve the
monOtOny of the sick room, q flower,
or even a picture, which you can loan
for a few days.
10. If desirable, some little delicacy
to tempt the appetite will be well be-
slowed; but nothing could be o more
complete illustration of mistaken kind
ness than the common custom OF tempt
ing sick persons to eat such unwhole-
some things as rich cakes, preserves,
sWeetmeats. etc.
II. Stay only moment, or a few
minutes at the longest, unless you can
be of some help.

LongfsllOw's Kindness to Children

concord MONITOR
Prof. Luigi Monti relates pleasant
story Of Henry w. LongfelloW. For
many years this gentleman has been in
the habit Of dining with the poet every
Saturday. On Christmas Day, as he
was walking briskly towards the old
historic house, he was RCcOsted by 3
girl about II years old, who inquired
the way to LOngfellOW' home. BE told
her it was some distance down the
street, but if she would walk along with
him he would show her. When thew
reached the gate, she said: '.DO you
think 1 can 60 in the yard?'' ''Oh,
yes, said Signor MOnti. sDO you see
the room on the left? That is where
Martha Washington held her receptions
100 years ago. If you look at the win
dOWs on the right; you will probably
see a White-haired gentleman reading a
paper. Well, that viii be Mr.. Longfel-
low" She looked gratiied and happy
at the unexpected pleasure Of really see
ing the man whose poems she said she
loved As Signor Monti drew near the
house, he saw Mr.. LongfelloW standing
with his back against the window, his
head, Of course, ont Of sight When
he went in, the kind hearted Italian said,
''DO look out Of the window and bow
to that little girl, who wants to see you
very. muchrT "a little girl wants to
see me very much-where is she?'' He
haStened to the door, and, beckoning
with his hand, called out: Come here,

and asking her name, he kindly took
her into the house, showed her the "old

American Agriculture - Its Needs
and Claims

dllu gluilllos
We are indebted to Hon. J. 7
Updegraf, Representative in Con.
gress from the 18th district, { Lo
rain, Medina, Wayne and Summit,
for a copy of his speech on the above
important subject, delivered in the
House, Feb. z, 1881. 1t is a very
able, and We think conclusive, argu
ment in favor of establishing a "De
partment of Agriculture" and max
ing its chief officer a member of the
Cabinet.
There is now an agricultural Bu,
reau, so called, a mere subordinate
office, connected with the Department
of the Interior, but as Mr.. Updegraf
very justly claims, its scope and pow.
ers are entirely inadequate to the
proper care and promotion of the
vast agricultural interests of oul
country. Mr., Updegraf gives sta
tisties from official Government ia
bles, which show that agriculture
now furnishes more than so PER CENT,
of our foreign exports that t1ce''ty-
seye1l millions of our population are
directly engaged in farming, and
that farm property constitutes fully
one-third of all the wealth of the ma
ton, the capital invested being es-
timated at more than fourteen thou
sand millions Of dollars.
In his annual message, Dec. 2,
1861, President Lincoln urged Con-
gress to make more adequate proYis-
ions for the promotion of this great
interest. He said:
Agriculture, confessedly the larg-
est interest in the nation, has not
q department nor a bureau, but a
clerkship only assigned to it in the
Government. While it is fortunate
that this great interest is so indie
pendent in its nature as not to have
demanded and extorted more from
the Government, I respectfully ask
Congress to consider whether some
thing cannot be given voluntarily
with grept advantage"
Owing to the more pressing mat
ters growing out of the rebellion,
and demanding the attention Of
Congress at that time, Mr.. Lin
coins wise recommendation was
not carried out, and though it has
since been renewed by Presidents
Grant and Hayes, it has still failed
to secure the needed legislation.
The bill so ably advocated by Mr..
Updegrafs failed to pass the Con
gress which has just expired, 0ut
there is good reason to believe that
the subject will meet with more ia
vor from the next Congress, and that
before another year, the just claims
of the great farming interest Of the
Nation will be properly recognized,
and adequately represented by a
distinct Department of the Govern
ment, having equal powers with
those already established, and q
competent head, who shall be mem
Der of the Presidents Cabinet.

A Remarkable Mountain of Magnetic OF
Electric Rock"
Salt Lake Citv l'rfbuue

SAT- Lake City Tribune.
Some time ago the Tribune had Oeca-
sion to call attention to the Ada mine,
on Snake Creek, in this Territory. It
will be remembered that mention was
made Of a strange kind of rock found
in the tunnel of that mine that emitted
q bright glow, as phosphorus does,
when rubbed OF hammered on with
hammer or pick. This was at the time
classified, for want of better name, as
phOsphuretic rock. The miners in the
district called it ''helIs fire rock" and
the tunnel is known in that neighbOr-
hood as ''helrs hole" r. N. Baskin,
owner Of the mine, recently. forwarded
some samples Of this strange rock to
the professors Of chemistry at Yale Col
lege. On careful analysis it was found
tOCOntain no phOsphOrOus, as ct first
sufmised. The gangue was easily de-
termined; but the subtle power that
gave light to the rock baf1ed the sages
of New Haven, and the broad term
magnetic or electric rock was given to
it. This is something new in mining.
Miners sometimes get struck by light
ming, but this is the first well authenti-
Gated instance on record where 8 miner
has struck lightning. Again, in this
progressive age, when gas and coal oil
begin to take a back seat, this discovery
of a mountain Of ready-made electric
ity may become source Of incalcUlable
value to its owners. Our local tele-
graph Offices need only run a wire from
the Ada tunnel to their instruments to
obtain a permanent supply Of electric
ity The trouble end expense Of replen-
ishing batteries, replacing broken Jars,
ETC., would be entirely dispensed with,
and "hell's hole'' homemade lightning
kept on hand free of charge. The bene-
fits to be derived from this discovery
can be well imagined, but it is not nee
essary at this time to point out all Of
them, as q more complete description
of the property and various uses to
which its strange power can be applied
will be given at some future time, upon
the organization Of the Hel's Hole
Ready Made Lightning COMPANY,
