known by the name of Blandy, and also
that he had become involved in some
difficulty there, which caused him to

to be of peaceable disposition, and
physically unable to defend himself.

WHO MADE THE FIRST Coop DAGUERREo-
TYPE ?-It has been granted for many years
that the late Prof. John w. Draper took the
first successful likeness of the human face by
the method which Joseph Niepce invented
and Louis Daguerre developed. II is now
claimed, however that A. S. Wolcott, a New
York daguerreotyper, who finally opened a
laboratory in London, made excellent pic
lures several weeks before Prof Draper had
accomplished anything of consequence. This
is proved by files of the American Reposito-
ry, edited by Prof. Mapes The number for
October, 1910, contains an article showing
that Wolcott, after many experiments, "took
the image" of person standing near the
window in his laboratory at New York in Oc-
tober, 1889. 1t was dark and indistinct but
within few weeks he remedied the defects,
and had been making excellent hkenesses for
some time when Prof. Draper announced his
success in July, 1910. Draper did not begin
his experiments until two months after VOL
colt set to work, and his progress was slow
er. This question of priority is of no spe
cial importance, but is Interesting because it
relates to some of the first experiments in an
art which has developed marvelously. But
the honor of discovering method of obtain
ing permanent fac-similes of objects by the
chemical action of the sun, belongs neither
to Louis Daguerre, Prof. Draper or Mr.. VOL
colt. Joseph Niepce discovered process by
which this could be accomplished while Da-
guerre was yet trying to find it, and then the
two joined forces in perfecting the method.
Niepec died in 1888 however, and in 1889
Daguerre had made such headwsy that the
academy of sciences began to sound his
praises, and in the same year he made the in
vention public on the condition that the
French government should grant annuities of
G00O francs to him and 1000 to NePce's son.

was 30 stiff and cramped that the slightest
movement gave him pain. Nevertheless, he
could not make up his mind to rest he saw
the light put in the north window to guide
him, and he caught glimpse of pale. anx-
ious face behind the window-pane, and knew
that it was his mother who was waiting for
him. And yet those last fifty feet seemed
miles to his tired and aching legs. When he
reached the front door, his dog Yutul jumped
up on him in his Joy and knocked him flat
down in tho snow and oh, what an effort it
was to rise ! But no sooner had he regained
his feet than he felt a pair of arms flung
about his neck and he sank, half laughing,
half crying into his mothers embrace.
"Cheer up, laddie," he heard some one
saying, "Ye are fine chap and brave
one :"
He knew his fathers voice but he did not
look up he was yet child enough TO feel
happiest in his mothers arms

NASHUA, FLA, Jan. 80, 1883
Editors Phantr: Having read Mr. Whites
letter in your paper of Jan. 10, would like
to say few words concerning it. As far as
l know, Mr.. White wrote everything just as
it was but that part concerning Nashua filled
me with righteous indignation" l don't
doubt but he wrote just what he was told.
Mr., Hodgkins is the first person that has ever
come here who was afraid of starving to
death :" but of course a man that sis on the
piazza and waits for work to come to him, or
for somebody to get him job, isvery apt to
get quite hungry. He won't get even 90 cts.
per day. One man here tried to hire some
men for that price, but they soon struck for
more, and men have been getting S1.00 and
S125 per day all winter, and work plenty,
too. Carpenters get from 81. 80 to S2.50 per
day. Mr. Hodgkins had short job where he
received 81 % per day, and Mr. Mills hired
him awhile and paid him $500 per day. As
far as the land is concerned here, it is good,
bad and indifferent If one has a small piece
of wet or low land aud works it over a few
times with the aid OF little fertilizing it
will grow any vegetable in its season. We
are no" enjoying oulOus, Breen7i Iau'suos anu
lettuce, and every week something is planted,
so We can have vegetables almost all the year
round The time when we have the least is
in August and September. We were just as
poor as Mr. Hodgkins when we came here, and
haven't come near starving either, although
we are most always hungry--an effect of the
climate. We have been here eight years, and
now have a place worth $4,000. A single
man could come here with nothing and get
along slowly but man with family should
have enough to buy his land and build him a
comfortable house. Mr.. Hodgkins could do
no more alone at Arredonda than he could
here. His partner refused to help him while
he stayed here, and it was his interest to go
there but he has no right to run down this
part of the country on that account. The
lowest the thermometer has stood here this
winter was 2So above zero. We have another
source of income, and that is strawberries.
We have three -fourths of an acre, and from
the 10th of February until the first of May
will receive 25 cents per quart here on the
wharf 1, like Mr.. White, have written only
what is really So Yours resp'y,
Mrs. D. b. MILLS.

AMSTERDAM, THE VENICE OF THE NORTH,
has now about 300, 600 inhabitants. 1t is
laid out in the shape of an open fan, of
which the handle is her seaport, and is built
on 100 or more little islands, connected by
over 300 bridges The canals run far into
the avenues of the city, and are mostly bor-
dered by rows of trees, on either side of
which is paved passage for carriages and
narrow sidewalk for pedestrians. On these
canals the Dutch skipper's floating home
stead, with its cabin built on the deck, where
his family attend to their household duties,
steamboats, and email vessels are seen sailing
as it were through the city. The sight is
novel and beautiful on the aristocratic ave-
nues, where the canals are kept clean, and
where, l imagine, these vessels never unload
or sell their goods But on other canals, es-
pecially on the outskirts, their borders are
converted into regular market places, and are
not so attractive. The narrow streets away
from the canals are SO very narrow that two
carriages can scarcely pass each other, and
pedestrians have no little trouble to avoid be-
ing run over. To this permanent danger,
and another arising from the unprotected
banks of the canals, where myriads of chill
dren seem to delight in playing, 1 attribute
the unusual number of hunchbacks and
manned people seen here. Serious accidents
must occur every day. Amsterdam has some
very fine buildings, but l would by no means
call it monumental city. The houses are
built on piles driven in the water, and they
are of brick, from five to seven stories high,
painted in dark colors. generally almost black,
and the roofs are slanting and covered with
tiles. In the business part and far out, the
houses are old fashioned, badly finished, and
have very large rooms and high ceilings. In
the new part, the buildings have more
cheerful appearance, and must be more COM
Portable, as they have nearly all the modern
improvements. Foreign correspondence San
