An Experiment with Rabbsr.

When Charles Goodyear began his
experiments with iudia-rubber, he sup
posed that its sickness was a conse-
quence Ct its manufacture, and not a
quality of the gun. An Irishman showed
him that he was mistaken.
Mr.. Goodyear lad purchased several
barrels of india-rubber sap, which had
been kept in a semi-liquid state by
small quantity of alcohol mixed with
the gum when first barreled. To an
Irishman in his employ lie had told his
hope of drying the liquid gum so that
it could neither become sticky nor de-
compose. Jerry, being anxious to assist
his employer, opened barrel of the
liquid gum, and dipped in it his trou-
sers. The next morning he called Mr..
Goodyear's attention to the rubber.
covered garment, and intimated that an
Irishman was as good at inventing as
Yankee.
Mr. Goodyear examined the dipped
trousers and hoped that the long desired
improvement had at last been secured.
1t was not long before Jerry seated him
self before the fire and began his task
Of mixing gum. On attempting to rise,
he discovered that his legs were stuck
together, and he himself fastened TO the
stool. Two men drew him out Of his
adhesive trousers and also olt of the
notion that he was an inventor. Mr..
Goodyear, used TO failures, resumed his
experiments to solve the rubber problem,

Gossip About Boyota.

At present it takes four days to 90 by
mule back from Honda, on the seacoast
of South America to Bogota This
Grenada region was originally occupied
by the Chibeha Indians, who were sort
of American Buddhisis, and numbered
three-quarters of million. Their CAPT
tai was called Bocata, which has been
corrupted. The elevation of the Capital
is about $3.50 feet, and, therefore, no.
body can work there more than five
hours day; bnt one hundred thousand
people live in the Capital. which is a
dull place, mainly built of adobe houses.
1t costs $1,000 TO pay the freight on a
piano TO the city, and yet nearly all the
well-to-do people have pianos. The
street cars are brought over the terrific
carried by dozen persons per rail. New
Workers own the street railroads, which
charge ten cents. The police go on
duty at night; they carry lassoes, and
throw them over thieves The society
of Bogots is exclusive and they speak
Spanish, but the upper classes make pre-
tentions to French. The politicians of
Colombia have more influence than in
any other country, hut out of thirty
three Presidents there seventeen have
been Generals. They draw their instltu-
tons from America, their finances from
England, their morals from the French,
and their eloquence from the Spanish.
Writers and poets abound in the coun-
try. Church and State are perfectly
separated. There are some Protestant
Ministers in the land. Paper money is
general. Some of the banks pay thirty
per cent. dividends year Beggars and
gamblers are plentiful, and the people
love music Orchids are sent out of the
country to aristocratic Americans and
Europeans, and these parasites cost from
a cent to thirty cents plant, and bring
in Europe, in some cases, $500 apiece.
Bogotai is half mile further toward the
sky than the summit Of Mount Washing
ton, and yet the neighborhood abounds
in tropical fruits and the streams ard
full OF fish. Hotels there are bad, and
a New Hampshire woman keeps the chief
American boarding house. = Cincinnati
