Like Martha, the Republicans are troubled
about many things, and one of them is the
election in 1884. They already feel defeat
in their bones, and it will come as surely as
the Democrats are wise in their nominations
and conduct, and the sins Of the Republican
party during twenty years of misused pow
er are remembered.

consumed by sheep and cattle for thirty
years, save i'll wet climates. On arabic
land it is generally computed to exhaust

RESTORING FADED INK,

RESTORING FADED INK.-A valuable

whereby the faded ink on old paroh-
ments may be restored as to rendor the

consists III moistening the paper with
water and then passing over the lines
i'll writing, brush which has been wet
III solution of sulphide of ammonia.
The writing will appear quite dark in
color, and this color, in case of parch-
ment, 1T will preserve. Records which
were treated i'll this way in tho Germanio
Museum, III Nuremburg, ten years ago,
are still i'll the same condition as i'm
mediate)y after the application of the
process. On paper, however, tho color
gradually fades again; but it may be
restored at pleasure by the application
of sulphide, The iron which enters
into the composition OF the ink is trans
formed by the reaction into tho black
