Old Ace and Work.

Old people make a great mistake
when they give up work. Many men
who have made a competency in bust
ness and feel entitled to retire from
active work find themselves declining
in health and becoming prematurely
old for want of occupation. In most
aged persons the vital functions con-
tinue in active exercise under normal
conditions, but if the regularity and
moderation Of business life are depart
ed from trouble will surely follow

AERIAL TELEGRAPHY.
First Attempted by Amontons In the
Fifteenth Century.

FIRST Attempted ny AmontonS IN the
Fifteenth Century.
One Of the first systems OF aerial
telegraphy was attempted in the fif-
teenth century The originator was
AmOntOns, at that time considered one
of the cleverest scientists of the world.
Yet you never hear the name nova
days in connection with that of Morse
or Bell However, Amontons develop
ed a system of signal telegraphy so
that a message could be sent from
Paris to Rome in three hours. Those
who assisted in the transmission Of the
message along the line were unable to
tell the nature of the message.
Posts were placed from Paris across
the Alps at consecutive points, where
men were stationed with telescopes.
Different signals, representing COM
binations of letters, were run up at
each post. The man at the other end,
seeing the signal, placed a similar one
before his post, and so the message
was carried to it's destination.
The key to the signal was known
only to those who sent the messages
in Paris and to the recipients a thou
sand miles away. AmOntons was not
encouraged in his work by the puffy,
equity functiOnaries of the time and
discontinued his efforts. - Philadelphia

The Battle OF Helenn.

Editor National Tribune: Lieut. Hix-
an, Co. K, 43d Ind, in a communica-
ton to The National Tribune, says that
the battle of Helena, Ark, commenced
at 10 o'clock, July 8, 1853. Comrade
McElroy also makes some statements
with regard to this battle which are
misleading and not according to his OBJ
servations on that day. The morning
of July 4, at 2:30 o'clock, the 33d Iowa
was in line Of battle Immediately in
front of Fort Curtis, with orders that
in the event of an attack Cos. B and G
were to take their positions in Battery
d, on the Little Rock road. Cos. A and
c were to occupy Battery c, and the
other companies to occupy the space
between Batteries D and C.. The pick
cts were first fired on at sharp day.
light from Battery d, on the Little Rock
road. AS there was a heavy fog that
morning. at first only the legs of the
rebs could be seen marching. Our
pickets held them in check till one man
was killed, two wounded and two taken
prisoners, when the post fell back into
the fort. Gen. Fagan's Brigade made
three charges on Battery d. Comrade
McElroy says they got into the fort,
but 1 say they did not, as I was in the
fort myself giving them lead from two
guns. He also says that Serg't Moore
alone captured five rebels. That seems
to be putting 1t pretty strong, as I was
the first man out of that fort, with
Serg't Moore right on my heels. We
ran together quite a way out on the
Little Rock road, when + looked down
a ravine and saw 100 or more rebels
and said: Mate, look there! We had
better be getting back or they will take
us in" We then turned back and met
more of our boys coming out, and to-
gether we gathered in over 100 rebs
and rebel flag that is now in the State
House at Des Moines. The 43d IND,
35th Mo. and 28th Mo. were not en-
gagged in Batteries D and c. but did
their share of the fighting farther up
the line.-John Metz, Co. G, SD Iowa.
