lions of billions of miles away that are
really great. blazing suns hundred

The fact of the matter, Mister Man. Is
that you are a very concelted parsonage.

that being the case, 1t is wonder that,
realizing your own tremendous import

yourself.
You dimly wonder one minute how the

gone. and can almost feel the great big
blank space that you will leave when you
do go-and then you go to work and by
carelessness and neglect try to arrange

Every train rolls on through dismal smoke and barbarous mel aneholy ruins, and the companies might well cry in their advertisements: "Come, travel our wayl Ours is the blaokest. It is tho only genuine Brebus route. The sky is Black, and tho ground is black, and on either side there is a continuous border of black stumps and logs and blasted trees appealing to heaven for help as if still half alive, and their mute eloquenoe is most in- terestingly touching. The blaokness is perfect. On account of the superior skill of our tworkmen, advantages of climate and the kind of trees, the charring is gen. orally deeper along our line, and the ashes are deeper, and the confusion and desola- tioD displayed can never be rivaled.

Crank Suggestions Made to Grant For the q. ai=e Capture of IlicInDond.

Crank Suggestions Made to Grant For the Q.at=c Capture of IlicInDond.
 General Horaco Porter's Campaigning With Grant," in the August Century, deals with the preparatiGfs for the last campaign. General Porter says:
 General Grant had become very tired of discussing methods of warfare which wero like some of the problems described in al zebra us "more curious than useful" and he was not sufficiently interested in the canal to be present at the explosion which was expected to complete it. About this time all tho oranks in the country, besides men of real inventive genius, were send ing extraordinary plans and suggestions fer capturing Richmond. A proposition from an engineer was received one day, accompanied by elaborate drawings and oaloula tions which had evidently involved intense lahor on the part of the author. His plan was to build a masonry wall around Richmond of an elevation higher than the fullest houses, then to fill tho in- closure with water pumped from the James river and drown out tho garrison and people like rats in cage. The exact num- Der of pumps required and their capacity had been figured out to nicety.
 Another inventive genius, whose mind seemed to run in the direction of the sci- ence of chemistry and the practice of ster- mutation, sent in a chemical formula for making an all powerful snuff. In his communication he assured the command ing general that after series of experi- ments he had made with it on people and animals, he was sure that if shells were filled with it and exploded within the ene- my's lines, the troops would be seized with such violent fits of sneezing that they would soon become physically exhausted with the effort, and the Union army could walk over at it's leisure and pick them up as prisoners without itself losing a man.
 A certain officer had figured out from statistics that the James river froze over about once in seven years, and that this was the seventh year, and advised that troops be massed in such position that when the upper part of the James changed from liquid to solid columns could be rushed across it on the ice to position in rear of the enemy's lines, and Richmond would be at our mercy. A sorcerer in Rochester sent the general word that he had cast his horoscope, and gave him a clear and unclouded insight into his fu- ture, and added to its general attractive ness by telling him how gloriously he was going to succeed in taking Richmond.
 ohS ofohihB ono BeHerai relerreu oo bueSe emanations of the prolific brains of our people and the many novel suggestions made to him, beginning with the famous powder boat sent against Fort Fisher, and closed the conversation by saying: "This is very suggestive age. Some people ! seem to think that an army can be whipped by waiting for rivers to freeze over, explod- ing powder at a distance, drowning out troops or setting them to sneezing, but it will always be found in the end that the only way to whip an army Is to go out and fight it."
