While we hear of so many substi-
 tutes for wood as to makesthe hearts
 of the forest denudation alarmists
 beat for joy, it is very rarely we hear
 of forest products being put to a use
 for which wood has been hitherto
 deemed entirely imprachcable. Such case, whoever. has just come to our notice, and strange to say, 1t Is not q
 Yankee invention either, and dld not originate in the Land of Wooden Nutmegs, but is to be credited to the inventive genius of a New Jersey youth. 1t is said: "A Patterson, N. J., mechanic, named William Sutcliffe Is building a steamboat with a wood SD boiler, which wiil be placed iu the Passaic River above the falls in few days. The boat IS propeller, 16 feet long. The boiler Is made of a new ale cask, and is said to be capable o1 standing a pressure of POO pounds to the square inch. It has already been satisfactorily tested at 40 pounds pressure. This novel boiler Is fitted with fues, and the fire. instead ot being under, is on top of It, a draught being supplied by tube from under meath. Mir. Sutclltfe is a thorough and practical mechanic, holding re- sponsible position in one of the Pat terson locomotive works. 1t Is the first time in history that an attempt has been made to raise steam h q | wooden boiler, and 1t looks a5 f the experiment would prove success. ."-I Cotton, Wool and Iron.

By 'TlIs Washes.

We stood for little together,
 The water kissing our feet; Around us glowed glad bright weather;
 The morning and you were sweet. Thought, as you stood there dreaming. ! Twas you that lighted the day; And the water glancing and gleamins 1 And hurrying ever away. Vocal with briet light laughter, As past you 1t fled to the sea, Seemed to finger little. and after think it agreed with no, Fla a5hed with the wind and glowing,
 Silent you stoGd awhile, Hair in the sunlight blowing,
 Smiling dreamy smile. The water sang, "Love is treasure"
 "A treasure" my soul replied; And the pain of it, and the pleasure.
 Swseter than all beside" And saw the wavslsts glitter,
 Glad but to kiss your feet; And the wind sang, "Life may be bitter, But loving can'make 1t sweet" And laughed and loitered around you, Surely finding you fair, And the merry sun kissed and crowned yoy Queen of the morning there. Everything fair seemed to love you, Seemed proud at your feet to fall; And the lark, singing high above you, Sang you were the fsirest of all. And scarcely word was SD; ken, But onr souls to each other spoke, Til tho dreamy spell 'TIRS broken.
 And VIC started and smiled and woke. md so in the glorious weather,
 In the morning blythe and gay, Happy in being together,
 Happily wandered away.

The Nevada BOrax Fields.

The Walker Lake Bulletin says: The largest supply of borax in the world Is in this county, partly on the line of the Carson and Colorado rail road, and partly in Fish Lake valley and Columbus basin. From some of the marshes the cotton balls are ship ped to Europe to be worked. At most, however, the borax IS manu- tsctured on the ground. There are three large works near Columbus, which, when in operation, can turn out about six tons daily. In addition to these there are five smaller estab lishments that together can make two tons daily. The large mills are closed at present, as they have a great quantity on hand, but the small places are steadily at work. From Rhodes marsh the raw mater isl is nearly all shipped to Liverpool, and Gray 6 Turner, near Columbus, are making preparations to ship tn the same place. They sent samples of last Saturday.

Filling up the $. IVer."

Mir. Henry Carey Baird, in a letter to the Philadelphia Enquirer, calls attention to the fact that though $114,9 ,960,197 of silver coin is piled up in the treasury vaults, yet that S92,- 651, ,94 of "paper money of 8 most acceptable character known as silver certificates" has been issued in lieu of this pile of coin. Thus do these dollars circulate by virtue of their paper representatives to this amount ieaving less than $22,O00,OOO in the treasury uarepresented by paper money.

TaRey and the Dred SeOtt
 Case.

Allow me to state some facts re
 lstive to Judge Taney's feelings towards the colored race. Some thirty
 years before bis death he freed hi;
 slaves. This proves that he was De
 lover of slavery. On oDe occasion
 speaking of the colUred people with
 much emphasis he sad: Thank God that at least in one placs all men are equal in the church of God I do not consider 1t any degradation to kneel side by side with a negro in the house of our Heavenly Father 1! On another occasion speaking of the Dred Scott decision, he remarked that "no matter what might be his feelings in regard to this question Cf slavery, bis oath bound him to inter pret the law under the Constitution. This was his higher law-the oath he had taken when hs accepted the posi- ton of Chlss Justice of the United States Supreme Court. A purer, . more conscientious man never wore the ernine; a more faithful servant the Government of the United States never had. It was his fidelity to duty that cost him his life, as l per sonally know. I knew him intimately for several years. He spoke with sadness of our late troubles, wishing from his heart that some statesman would raise upAnd prevent the fra tricidGl contest.

Exit Bloss, Enter H.,eombe.

Professor John NJ. Bloss retired from Office
yesterday as Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton, and John W. Holeombe entered upon his
duties, with f. P. Conn, of Evansville, as his
assistant. Prof. Bloss has not yet fully decided
what he will do, but he will not be long idle. He
has been mentioned as the successor of DR..
White, as president of Purdue University, and
should DIR. Whites resignation be accepted it is
probable that he will be elected, as 1t
is pretty well understood that he is the choice
OF the State Board of Education, if DR.. White
cannot be induced to remain, which now seems
very probable.
