These are the hard, knotty, problems
which are presenting themselves to US for
solution and from which we would turn
away, but there is no alternative. The
rising generation looks to us to ameliorate
and better their condition, and what are
we to do? We look to the trades and pro-
fessions-a gigantic barrier Of national pre-
judice seems to intervene. We look to-
ward every point Of the. compass for some
source OF relief, but allseems cold and I'M

Destiny.
To the Editor o. the IntOll!genCer.
SIR: noticed short time ago IN arti-
Gle in the INTELLIGENCE advising colored
men Of this State to refrain from office
seeking. The advice struck me as timely
and proper. am pleased that the 1NTEL-
uaEScER has taken up the cause OF the
race in the State and seeks to impart whole
some advice. We need the aid Of such
journals TO help US in solving The difficult
problem OF life, / would that the leading
journals Of the State would thus come TO
the rescus OF a race still laundering in the
slime OF the departed dragon. A friend at
this junctGre is friend indeed. As to the
oflice-seeking, wish to say that 1t is my
opinion that the matter.of.fact colored men
Of the State, those who have been long
bearing the burden In the heat OF the day
and who now have the interests Of the race
at heart, have not been oflice.seekers.
There has been such cry raised recently
in the State, but 1t has only been raised by
political sharpers, who expect TO create Il
diversion by this means while they slip
into position from behind the scenes, un-
observed by the popular eye.
We need an industrial, mechanical and
art school located at some central point in
the State to train our young men in the in
dustrial and mechanical arts. In connec.
ton with such an institution we need
paper published in the interests OF science
and literature, edited by the best literary
talent we have in the State. Our motto
should be "Alore Literature and Less Poll
tics" Let the colored press, while it in
structs It's readers to vote Alright, strive TO
impress the race with the importance
which attaches to the acquisition OF educa-
ton and property. Economy in every walk
OF life should be encouraged. We need TO
know how to build a steam engine rather
than to understand the trickery Of ward
politician. Let the colored press instruct
the race how to solve the problem. Be.
ginning at the bottom round Of the ladder
and advancing step by step, it may finally
step ffthe top round into comfort and af-

Eye Memory.

Look steadily at a bright object,
keep the eyes immovable on it for q
short time, and then close them. An
image Of the object remains; it comes,
in fact, visible to the closed eyes. The
vividpess aud duration Of impression
vary considerably with different indi-
viduals, and the power Of retaining
them may be cultivated. An eccentric
old man, the once celebrated but not
forgotten "Memory Thompson" trained
himself to the performance Of wonder
full feats Of eye memory. lie could
close his eyes and picture within him
self panorama Of Oxford street and
other parts Of London, in which pict-
urc every inscription over every shop
was SO perfect and reliable that he
could describe and certify to the names
and occupations Of the shop-kecping
inhabitants of all tho houses Of these
streets at certain dates, when post-olice
directories Wele not as they now are.
Although Memory Thompson is forgot
ten, his special faculty is just now
receiving some attention, and it is pro-
posed to specially cultivate it in ele-
mentary schools by placing objects
before the pupils for given time, then
taking thom away and requiring the
pupil to draw them. That such fac
ulty exists and may be Of great service
Is unQuestionable.

Dynamite Can't Be Bent,

explosive which the French inventor
has introduced" asked a reporter of
DR.. Barnum, the chemist.

Piled the analyser Of compounds.
The newsman produced q scientific
journal and read:
"A new explosive, invented in
France, threatens to put all end to the
future usefulness OF dynamite, except
ing for the very mildest of as sass Ii nltion
purposes. The new explosive consists
OF hypoazotic acid, which is one Of the
numerous compounds Of oxygen and
azote Of nitrogen mixed either with
essence Of petroleum or sulphuret of
carbon. The degree Of explosive force
is said to depend upon which Of the
last-named ingredients Is uSed.n
The doctor traced his fingers anxious

'"This thing is sheer humbugpery.
The ingredients cannot exert the force
OF so much gunpowder or illuminate of
silver"
"Upon what do you base your opin-
ions?"
Amy chemist will tell you that when
the compound mentioned above OK

produces slow action, and destroys all

the force Of all explosion depends en-
tirely upon rapility. I must admit
that the ingredients are highly explo

"No. The proposed compound does

Discoveries at tho AoropolIs.

Some very interesting discoveries
have Just been made on the Acropolis of
Athens. The rubbish heaps between
the Parthenon and the museum, where
remains of the older Parthenon have
already been found, have now yielded
several pieces Of archaic sculpture.
Among these are a figure OF Athells,
quite perfect, with the dress descending
to the feet, which are shod with red
slippers with pointed toes; seated
figure of the goddess, similar to frag-
mcntary one already found on the same
spot, in the Egyptian style, with tab
let Oh The lap; AMI the upper parl of q
bas-relief representing Il cllaroteer
whose head is turned. The unskillful-
ness Of the artist has twisted it COM
pletely round. The colors upon this
bas-relief are still brilliant. Beside
these relics Of early art, large marble
hand with a serpent upon it, as we'll as
two serpents entwined together, one Of
which has its mouth wide open, have
also been discovered. They probably
belong to a shrine of the daughter of
Asklepios which stood in this part of
the acropolis. 1t should be added that
the head ard upper part Of the body Of
tho so-called Athena are wanting.

Girls of Other Lands at Work.

The theory that girls exist merely as
lay figures to display fine drapery and
TO look pretty, is not entertained among
half-clvillZed or savage tribes or nations.
Tho eccentric notion still prevails
throughout Asia, Africa and in some
parts OF Europe and America, that they
are born to. labor. In Turkestan and on
the Tartar steppes the Kirghese Sultan

in whose veins flow the blood OF ines of
Kings, still milk the sheep, COWS Mit.
goats, and perform the meniai Offices u
the household as the Sanscrit maiuens
did six thousand years ago in the same
localities. They cook, take care Of the
younger children, make garments, cure
the skins Of wild fowl with the feathers
on for caps, spin cotton, weave cloth,
and tan leather by means of sour milk.
In this delectable region the mother
wears rich attire, while the daughter
goes III humber weeds like Cinderella.
IL there is a piano, the mother plays on

the daughter brews the koumiss, stews
the mutton and brOils the camel chops
in the back kitchen. Similar ideas pre-
vail throughout India, China and among
the native tribes Of Siberia, who have
been driven northward by aggressive
neighDors. The Tungusian girl gathers
the snow, melts it, makes The tea and
the fish soup, sews, and, being skilful
in archery, helps to keep the larder sup
piled with game. The Yacut and Sam

dwell along the Arctic Ocean, help in

How Birds Teach their Young to Sing.

A wren built her nest in a box on a
New Jersey farm. The occupants of
the farm house saw the mother teach
her young to sing. She sat in front of
them and sang her whole song very dis
tinctly. One of tho young attempted
to initiate her. After proceeding
through few notes it's voice broke and
it lost the tune. The mother immcdi-
ately recoumenced where the young
one had tailed, and went very distinctly
through the remainder. The young
bird made a second attempt, commenc-
ing where it had ceased before, and con-
tinuing the song as long as it was able;
and when the note was again lost the
old bird began anew where it stopped,
and completed it. Then the young one
resumed the tune and finished it. This
done, the mother sang over the whole
series Of notes a second time with great
precision, and another young one at
tempted to follow her. The wren pur-
sued the same course with this one as
with the first, and so with the third and
fourth. This was repeated day after
day and several times a day, until each
Of the young birds became perfect
songster.
