Noteworthy Letter from whistler.

The following letter from the poet Whit
tier appears IN the volume just issued from
the Government printing office, giving an
account of the ceremonies at the dedication
OF the Washington monument. 1t is a
pleasure to give circulation 10 sentiments
so elevated and appropriate:
OAK KNOLL, DANvERs Mass
Second Month, s, 1885
Hon. John Sherman, Chairman Of Committee
DEAR FRIEND: The state of my health will
scarcely permit me TO avail myself of the invita-
ton of the Commission to attend the ceremonies
OF the dedication of the Washington monument
In common with my fellow citizens | rejoice nj
the successful completion of this majestic testi-
monial of the reverence and affection which
the people of the United States. irrespective of
party, section or race. cherish for the father of
his country. Grand, however, and impos-
ing as that testimonial may seem, it is
after all but an adequate outward repre-
sentation of that mightier monument, I'M
seen and unreasonable, builded Of the living
stones OF nations love and gratitude, the
hearts of forty millions of people. But the
world has not oUtliyed its need of picture writ
ing and symbolism, and the great object lesson
OF the Washington monument will doubtless
prove large factor in the moral and political
education of present and future generations
Let us nope that il will be warning as well as
benediction, snd that while its sun-lit altitude
may fifty symbolic the truth that righteous
ness eXalteth q nation its shadow falling on
the dome of the Capitol may be daily remind
er that " sin is d reproach to any people,
Surely it will not have been feared in vain if
Oh that day of its dedication its mighty shaft
united people that the principles for which the
fathers toiied and suffered should be maintained
inviolate by their children. With sincere re-
spect, am thy friend, JOHN G. WHITTIER

How TO KILL THE Enthusiastically
speaking, if you are troubled with 1.-The
blues, and cannot tell why, you may be
certain that it springs from physical weak
ness. Instead of lying on the sofa and
counting painful ideas if you are desper-
ate lover, hypochondriac, or a valetudi-
marian, you should be up and stirring
yourself. The blood of a melancholy man
is thick and slow, creeping sluggishly
through the veins, like muddy water in a
canal the blood of your merry, chirping
philosopher is clear and quick, brisk as
newly preached champagne. Try, there
fore. to set your blood in motion. Try,
rather, what a smart walk will do for you !;
set your pegs in motion on rough, rocky
ground, or hurry them up steep, dragged
hill; build stone walls; swing an Ak over
pile of hickory or roclI-maple; turn a
grindstone; dig ditches practice ground
and lofty tumbling;" pour water into
sleeves with the Danaides or, with Sissy
plus, up the high hill heave a huge
round stone;' in short. do ANYTHING that
will start the perspiration, and you will
soon cease TO have your brains lined with
black, as Burton expresses it, or to rise in
the morning as Cowper did, like an in
fernal frog out of Acberon, crowned with
the ooze and mud of melancholy. PRO

THE NEW STATUE AT ROME.
A Description of IT, Together With al
Account of its Discovery.

The bronze statue found lying in the
bed of the Tiber on Saturday last has been
successfully raised This was a work of
some difficulty, for il had evidently been
flung into the river head foremost, and was
found with the feet uppermost. The work
men first struck the metal plinth, which,
being hollow, was supposed to be large
bronze plate. But on clearing the sand
from below the men quickly found the feet
Of the statue. 1t is Bacchus, little I'M
der life size, the head crowned with ivy
leaves and berries. The left arm is fexed
upward, the hand holding a long vine
and is extended a little outward. The face
is very slightly turned to the right, and the
weight of the body rests on the right leg,
the left being bent at the knee, with only
the ball of the foot and toes touching the
ground behind.
The statue is perfect in every respect,
with the exception of a clean fracture
above the right ankle and that the thyrsuS
is broken into thee pieces, which have all
been found. 1t is work of great beauty,
but, as far as it is possible to form judg-
ment, coated as it still is in many parts
with Tiber sand. / am inclined to attribute
it to the GRECO Roman rather than to any
Greek school of art. The face is strictly
ideal. the line of the nose straight, and the
mouth and chin are clearly and symmet-
rically modelled in full accordance with the
typical rendering of the divus. The eyes
are of some artificial material to initiate
! nature, the iris being represented by globu-
lar concavities. Some are inclined to think
the eyes are silver, but this cannot be as
certained until the incrustation of sand is
removed, and that will not be difficult
| task, for it is very loose The bronze has a
beautiful golden tint
The statue was found in the middle of
the river, where the works are going on for
sinking the foundations of the middle pier
of the bridge which is to connect the new
street through the Regola on one side and
the TrasteveTe on the other, near the church
of San Crisogono. This spot is but q short
distance from the northern extremity of
| the Island of St. Bartholomew, and as a
| portion, extending more or less to where
| the works are proceeding, was washed
away during one of the foundations in the
middle ages, it is probable that the statue
may have been flung into the river from
the northern point of that island, where
stood temple of Faunus, mentioned by
| Ovid in the Fast >"
| Idibus agrestis fumant altaria Fauni
| Hic ubi discretas insula rumpit aquas"
The recovery of three bronze statues
within less than twelve months is some
| thing more than remarkable .ondon

ENGRAVING BY ELEcTRICITY.-An inven-
ton likely TO be of great practical utility
has been made by an Englishmau, in the
shape of an engraving machine, in which
the delicate agency of electricity has been
introduced into the mechanism with great
success. 1t is chiefly intended for decora-
tive engraving upon metal work, and is
capable of producing highly finished re-
suits with celebrity in which manual work
is completely outdistanced The word or
design to be engraved is FIRST furnished by
setting of ornamental types or stereo-
type plate. Over this is passed in parallel
lines an arm of the machine, to which is
attached a fine protected platinum point.
The motion of the arm is responded to by
that of the table, which carries the metal
to be inscribed or decorated beneath the
point of the engraver. The type or stereo-
type plate, by raising the platinum point,
puts into circuit a current of electricity,
which, acting upon an electro magnet,
raises or depresses the graver and produces
an enlarged or reduced engraved copy of
the types upon the metal ON the table with
perfect accuracy. Complicated patterns,
which would involve heightened hand la
Dor, can be produced by the agency of the
machine in a brief period and at trihing
COST Bookmaker.

Our AUTUMNAL BEAUTIES. = National
pride finds many unequaled beauties in
America, but it is little curious that its
forests should display much more vivid
colors in their autumn foliage than the
same trees exhibit in European countries
having a similar climate. Yet reliable OBJ
seryation assures us that such is the case
One of Bierstadt's gorgeous views of Rocky
Mountain scenery is said 10 have been
actually rejected by the Paris Salon, on the
ground that such tints were impossible in
nature, the picture being accepted only
when the American Consul certified to the
correctness of the coloring.

How THEY MADE UP.-Thev had been
enemies for three long years They passed
each other on the street with stern faces,
their wives made fun Of each others
dresses, and the children climbed on the
back fence and called each other shoddv
aristocrats. Oh, no, there was no dove of
peace around there ard lots of people pre-
dlcted that case of assaSsi nation would
grow out of it. Last evening a whole
neighborhood was astoniahed bevond
measure. These two families who had
thirsted for each others scalps were seen
i'll sweet convention on the lawn. The
men exchanged cigars, the women admired
each others latest purchase, and the
blessed little children Rugged each other
all over the grass. How did the change
come about? Well, neither man ever
owned horse in his life, and neither knew
case Of SPAWN from blooming instance
of poll-evil. Jones decided, however, to
buy horse. He was looking one over at
hitching post when Smith came along.
In moment Of forgetfulness Jones re-
marked: Say, Smith, you know all
about q horse. How old is this animal ?"
In the jerk of a momet's tail, rancor and
bitterness were forgotten. The fattery hit
Smith plumb-center and ripped all the
buttons off his pent-up soul. He obeyed
the request, pointed out all the ringbones,
stiff knees and splints, and advised Jones
not to buy. They went off arm-in-arm.
and the dove of peace now sits on the
house-tops and MARBLES his joyous little
soul up to high C.-[Detroit Free Press.

A COOP SAFETY VALvE-'' What a safety
valve a joke is A salvationist captain was
once going with his band down CONNER
cial Road when his retrograde movement
knocked the pipe out of theological cos
termongers mouth. A row would natur-
ally have resulted, but the unlbrellaed one
apologized, and then added But you
know you would have had a chimney on
your head if you were ever intended to
smoke" This gave our theological friend
his opportunity. He Indignantly demand

Preparing Desiceated coeoanut.

No. sir, we don't make cocoanuts, said
member of firm whose sign read, :" Co.
coanut Manufacturing Company in re-
Spouse to an inquiry of a reporter. What
we DO Is to prepare the cocoanut for con-
fectioners, bakers and families, to be used
for pies and pastry. The nuts are brought
here by the vessel load, some ships bring
ing as many as 400, 200 in a cargo. They
are put up in bags of 100 each. The aver
age weight of the green nut is one and one

half pounds. The best are those thickest
in meat and richest in natural oil and SUI
gar. They come from San Bias, Cow ISL
and, San Andreas, Ruatans, Jamaica and
Baracoa. They grow Oh the islands of the
Caribbean sea, and the trees are so planted
that the roots are constantly washed with
salt water. The nuts are not picked from
the tree but fall to the ground when ripe
because of the decay of the stems. When
the husk is taken off they are ready fer
shipping. The perishable nature of the
green nut has made desiccated cocoannt
more desirable in the market, and this is
the article we manufacture and SELL"
What is the operation ?"
THE cocoanu's are placed in large
hopper, from which they fall to a zinc COW
cred table on a lower floor. In front of this
table several men are placed, who crack the
shell of the nut with a Ratchet as it fails
on the table. Then the shell is pried off,
leaving The meat whole. From to III
O'Clock six men at this work open 1900
nuts. A peeling machine then takes off
the brown skin of the nuts, after which the
meats are broken into pieces, the milk
drawn off and the pieces put into tubs of
clean, cold water The meat is then in
spected as to It's quality, and next it is put
into a grinding mill turning 400 revolu-
tons a minute. The pulp thus made is
mixed with granulated sugar and put in
long pans Of galvanized iron, which are
put up in the desiccators and the water ex-
tracted at high temperature. An interest
ing fact about the work is that the entire
process must be completed by 2 o'clock in
the afternoon, because of the delicate ma
ture of the fruit. The number of people
employed in this department is forty-six.
The desiccated nut is white as snow and per-
fectly dry, when it has been through the
process, and it is then allowed to cool and
is left in dry temperature for ten days be-
fore it is finally put up for the market At
O'Clock each day the work is all done"
What about the idea that cocoanut is
indigestible?"
II is supposed by many persons to be
50. But the best gowths show by analy-
sis about As per cent, of digestible oils )
per cent. of sugar, about IS per cent OF wa
ter. and only per cent. of ash. This be-
ing the case, there is scarcely anything peo-
pie eat more digcstible and nutritious"
