A peculiarly of the present congress
is that each member returns fresh from
his constituents with an insect of the
flea variety in his ear. The office of this
little ticker will be to remind its victim
Of his duty toward home industries in

it will be on duty seven days in week,
even ignoring Christmas and the Fourth

The Ell Dorado Republican wants to
know if the Lease woman is any more

 Canals. bitches
 and Reservoirs.

The above cut illustrates an AUTOMATIC the rise of water in canal, due to an oyer-abund- ant flow, or to sudden rises in the canal owing to severe rains or storms.
 It is particularly valuable to have such Water Gate placed in lower bank Of canal at such points along it's line Where there are Rayinos, Gullies, Arroyos, Foot Hills, Buttes, Tableand, any rains or storms bring down at such points surplus of water that is very dangerous to the banks of canal. The Waste Gate, however, will prevent such damage, as it is
 SELF-ACTI1JG AND PERFECT SAFETY VALVE Relieving the canal at short intervals of it's sur plus water, thus preventing the washing away of banks, and causing great damage generally, not alone to canal, but property owners all along the line, who may suffer more or less damages there after for the want of water owing to the damaged condition Of canal, and while such repairs being made. Not only is it valuable to relieve canal of its surplus water, to prevent damage and ex- pense, but by it's use the first cost of canal con- struction will be materially lessened, as the banks need not be made so high or wide.
 The device is extremely simple, and compara- LlECly ApeuSlNe 1CS iiail or operation IS IIS.
 There is pipe fastened to opening in the vertical gate, l. When the body of water rises to the level of the upper end of pipe, ?, water runs
 freely into the tank 3, which is immediately filled, thus oyerbalancing the weight, 1, which is on the other end of lever, ,, thus forcing open the gate, which suddenly relieves the canal of large plus of water. When body of water recedes below a certain level, no more water is admitted to the tank; it therefore empties itself by small faucet opening, 6, at the bottom; this being done, the weight overbalances tank, and brings down the lever, which, being rigid to the swinging gate, closes it. This operation continues at short in tervals so long as the body Of water keeps rising over certain level The lever, gate, pipe and tank are all rigid and hinge, or pivot, on hori- zontal shaft. The gate, Hume or box can be made any height, width, or length desired. The gate can be hinged between any bulkhead without box.
 The Water Gate is @ Perfect Safety Valve, and Is to body of water what safety valve is to steam. They can be made any size, corresponding with body of water and size of canal. It is secured by letters patent, and for sale'only by

AT meeting of the British Meteoro-
logical society at London, Shelford Bid
well made a remarkable experiment,
showing the effects of electricity uron
steam. 1t is well known fact that the
shadow Of n jet of steam cast upon any
white background under ordinary cir
cumstances is of feeble intensity and of
a neutral tint But. however, if the let
be given discharge of electricity lust
at the moment when it comes in contact
with the air, the density of the shadow
is amazingly increased as n result of con-
densation, and it assumes n peculiar
orange brown hue with lines and waves
merging into inky blackness.
Mr.. Bidwell, the only person to nv
knowledge who has ever made these ey-
periments scientifically, suggests that
the electricity promotes coalescence of
the exceedingly minute particles of wa
ter contained i'll the jet of steam, thus
forming drops large enough to obstruct
the more refrangible rays of light, but
why the color of the shadow should
change from neutral to shades of at least
three well defined colors he does not at
tempt to explain. From one of his late
articles gather ideas which point to the
intense blackness of thunderclouds be-
ing due to similar causes.-St. Louis Re.

THE Virginia Senators, Messrs. Daniel
and Hunton, showed yesterday how
strictly they regarded (?) the wishes OF
their constituents which had been made
known to them by kilograms and per-
sonal statements from several boards Of
trade within the preceding twenty. four
hours. When the vote upon the PETER
amendment was called they, with tho
hftecn others, including the free silver
men from the West, voted against laying
1t upon the table. Thanks to the thirty
three others who are in favor Of tho un.
conditional repeal OF the Sherman act the
free silver clause amendment was laid
aside. Messrs. Daniel and Hunton may
themselves know where their duty lies in
relation to the.pending measure but this
utter disregard OF the wishes OF so i'm
portant a portion Of their constituency
and SO representative OF the demands of
the entire community does not tend to
increase the general esteem in which
these gentlemen are at present held.
The State Democracy does not consider
that the best interests of this common
wealth or of the nation lies in the adop
tion Of Populist measures.
