lie tcld me then that tho invention
had cost him a thousand sleepless

added, "It is not done yet." And
now, after the lapse of thirty yoars, it
is nrobablv in its infancy. Liko the
art of printing, it has indeod leaped
into being complete, cut like mm art
also, it is not perfect. Kvery genera

when there was nn opportunity for
conversation that he did not introduce
the subject of personal religion, mak
ing it tho easiest nnd plcasantost
tlieino of quiot, gonial discourse. Ho
was the most umpio, unatiectea, mini-
bio man whom I ever know. hon 1
say tho most so, I mean just that, bo
cuuso I never knew any man who bad
received so much honor among men,
und ho was not puffed tip nt all. 1
was with him In I'aris during tho groat
Exhibition of 1807, and often sow him
under eircumslonces that would easily
develops tho vanity of inferior men.
lioyal personages would send to know
at what lime it wonld be convenient
for him to receive them, when they
would call at his modest lodgings to
pay bim the tribute of their rospoct.
Out b appeared no moro olatod than
by tlm expectation of a call from a
frieotij lie did not affect to under
value I such notico, nor to despise the
honoif that come from mon. Esteem
ing tlfm at their proper value, he had
a iuttt ejenso of tho rlory which bis in-
venliin has necessarily purchased for
him upd his country, and he always
L'loriiU. as was becoming, in the uso-
lulne and happiness which bis in
vent An had added to tho common
stock tenjoyed by tho human raco.

might have of portion nnd powor, it
might bo for tho ndvnntnge of tho ob
jfcthe sought to accomplish to appoar
with the prcstigo which snch decora
tions might confer. Yet ho shrunk
from what might appear ostentatious,
and prcforrcd to rely only on tho mer
its of his enso.
The Interest in tho Amoricnn chnpol
in I'aris was great and earnest. His
children wore teachers nnd scholars in
its Sabbath school. And when an
effort was mado to pay off a debt thon
embarrassing it, he started the sub
scription with a thousand dollars In
gold.

Whon his patents wero granted he
could maintain his rights by Inw but
to meet tho detractions and Injustice
of envy or avarice required constant

lie felt keenly tho wrong tlono him,
especially by the British clnimnntft,
who. with tierlinaoitv that would hnvo

back farther than a period four cen

notod as having occurred on the Elbe,
whon a band of about 800 in numbor,
under tbeir leader, Michnol, Duke of
Egypt, as bo called himself, appeared
among tho people of the Hesse towns,
bringing with them a lettor of recom
mendation from the Emperor Sigis
tnund which was subsequently found
to bo a lorgory. Thoy told tbe people
that tbey were doomed to wander
abroad upon the face of the earth as a
punishment for their npostacy from
Christianity to paganism. Thoy wero
kindly troutod by the credulous villa
gers, but, true lo thuir habits, they
stolo everything portablo upon which
thoy could lay their nanus, and their
adventure ondod with tho hanging of

decimations of their numbers, they in
creased wonderfully, nnd it is only
sioco about a hundred years ago, whon
tho cruel luws ngainst them wero re
pealed, that wo find them gradually
diminishing in number. Where thoro

would seem Hint under tho blighting

ization, tho Uitanas, as the Spaniards

cali Ihetii, and tho Gypsoy, as the
English have it, are passing away from

truth really nothing more than tbe
shadow of a namo.
Decay of the Sandwich Islands.
According to tho Hawaiian corres
pondent of the Now York Observer,
the population of tho Sitndwioh Islands
is rapidly docrousing unuer tnoso in
fluences which many boliovod would
havo a contrary effect. In short, civ
ilizalion and Christianity Boom to have
promoted rather than liindorou na
tional decay, and whilo the natives no
loneor worship idols or broil mission
aries, and nro better fed, bettor cloth
ed and bot tor sheltered than under the
nnoiont regime, they are dying out as
fust as our own Indians.
In ISTi, llio nutive inhabitants of
those islands nuinbored 142,000 ; in
1842,130,300; in 1840. 108,500; in 1S50,
82,400; in 185:1,73,100; in 1800, C3.700,
and In 1800, 63,000. In forty yoars, if
thoso figures be corroct, thoro hits liocn
an nctunl docrense of ono-half. It is
slatod that marriages are very rarely
followed by offspring; that even tho
most intelligent clusscs rcgnrd the
birth of children as a misfortune, and
Ibal thero aro many villages where
not a single child is to be scon. When
tho natural sotirco of supply is thus
strangely cut off, it Is no wonder that
hamlets are abandoned, houses empty,
and tho travelers can rido for miles
through tho country without mooting
or seeing a single human boing. The
onuses of this extraordinary change
for tho worso we loavo to tho Investi
gation of those philanthropists and
physiologists who believe brooches
and Bibles to bo tho grand panacea of
all the ills which flesh is heir lo.
There aro now about 2,600 Anglo
Saxons residing in tho Sandwich is
lands, and those are reinf orcod by 1 ,500
Chinese The latter, it is thought,
will soon monopolize the enliro agri
cultural intoresta of tho country.

Radical Truths froma Strange Source.
The miserable deportment of Presi
dent Grant has been so elaborately
sot forth by tho Democracy that
everybody should know that ho is
unfit for tho position ho occupies. To
drivo tho last null into Grant' coffin,
we introduco Gon. John Cochran,
Chairman of tbe Libera) Republican
State Committee of Now York. JJoad
what he says t
To the Liberal Republicans or New
Yoek: Fellow Citizsms The
present administration, although fail
ing to fulfill tbo first expectations of
me American noopio, is nevertheless
altomnting, through ita office-holders,
to prolong it power for the next four
year.
A luree portion ot the President's
original supporters, and the entire ro-
mainoor of his fellow-countrymen,
without distinction of party, survey
this attompt with Indicnation and
alarm.
Tho history of the administration is
a shadowy record of discreditable
(sometimes disgraceful) acts many
of them bltitidors : others crimes.
Evor sinco tho day aftor tho Presi
dent's inauguration, whon, as his first
ofilcial stop, bo sought to abrogate
one of tho oldest statutes of the repub
lic in oruor to put a porsonal mend in
ofilco, ho has repeatedly shown him
self, on the one band, ignorant of the
laws, and, on tho ollior, defiant of
thorn.
He has transcended tho limitations
of the Constitution and done violonco
to its free spirit by usurping for him
self functions which that instrument
reserves to tho Slates and tboir citi
zens. He has tyrunnously avoided tho po
itical assomblios of our own and other
freo commonwealths, mischievously
intruding his federal influence into
local affairs.
lie has alternately proposed and
defoated civil service reform, until,
notwithstanding his nrofessions in its
favor, ho has proved himself the chief
obstaclo to its success.
He bus, in multitudes of cases, made
tenure of ofiico lo depend not on good
behavior or personal fitness, but on
mere subsorvioncy to his partisan
Schemes.
Ho has put crafty and
AMBITIOUS PARASITES AT TIIK RECEIPT
Of CUSTOMS,
where thoy still continue to ful ten their

Ho said to a nation weary with war,
"Let us havo poaco," but has kept the
word of promiso to tho car to break it
to tho hopo fostoring in tho North
tncvntvl the Itoutn a lolnnor ui outer-
noes and roscntmont, instead of frater
nity and cood will.
lie has connivod at and sustained a
numbor of alien and rotten govern
ments in the Southern Slates, somo of
whoso officers havo perpotrnted frauds
cqunllod in magnitude only by thoso
of tho Tammany liing.
Ho has habitually stifled investiga
tion, even Into tho gravest charges,
brought against his own household.
lie has committed nets ol nepotism
moro numerous than nro icconlou
against tho cntiro lino of his Fresidon '
tiul predecessors from Goorgo Wash
ington to nndrow Johnson.
Ha has accepted trills from flatter
ers, for which he bas rendorod dishon
orable equivalents by bestowing pub
lio emoluments on mo ouseqiuous
givors.
In short, he has administered his
high office not as a trust dovolved
upon him by tho whole people, but as
an cstato or property ownod by him
self alono in fee simple.
During all this ovor growing malad
ministration tho President's pnrtisnns,
instoad of rohuking his perverse
eourso, have, on the contrary, nnd for
selfish ends, gilded il with nncandid
flattery nnd defended il with specious
logic. They haVe put forth a scries

Light and trifling minds do not suc

not take any interest in tboir work
What thoy do is dono mochanli'nllyr
without any thought or care, so they
kill so much time and got paid for it.
If they talk or rattlo, it is about that
which has no sonso in it, showing very
clearly imallness of calibre and vucan
cy of thought. If girls or young
women, tbey nro, or would be, con
slantly on tho "go," and chattering
about every littlo something, or about
absolutely nothing. An hour in such
company Is enough. If it is young
mon of tho samo class, tho weightiest
discussions aro on "how to mako hair
grow" on their femlnlno fncos, or
about somebody' fust horso, fighting
dog, or the luto runaway match of
two silly youths. One seldom hcrirs
from them any reference to tho real
duties of lifo or to tho work by which
thoy nro to get a living. If a turgot
company or a band of street miustuls
puss the premises whore they work,
thuso light weights rush to tho door
and windows, lvuving their duties, il
may bo, in confusion. Without ex
hibiting interest in tbeir work, with
out application, without onorgy or
persevoranco, and with no oeonomy as-

giddy human soap-bubbles, are now
"fixing things" tor lifo. They aro
sowing tbo wind and will reap Iho

thoir work they will come to naught,
and assist in filling tho poor-houses,
asylums, hospitals and prisons.

The Wat tin Indians Poison Their
Arrows Mr. Lo, tho Indian, is a r
niurkubly ingenious fellow in tho
preparation of materials of war. Here
is how ho manages to obtain poisoned
urrows : "With a piece of livor, fast
ened to a long stick, they (the euVi
agos) proceed to tho haunts of lbs
rattlesnake, and lis soon as one of
theso reptiles is found the Indian
thrusts his moat towards him, at tho
same time exciting and irritating tho
creature with another long stick, car
ried for the purposo. Tho angry rep
tile now strikes furiously and repeat
edly at tho pioco of livor, and soon
tho mcnl is charged with tho poison.
Whilo the Indian is thus engaged it is
necossary for him to bo exceedingly
cautious that tho assailnnl docs not
becomo tho assailed. If tho mato of
tho angry snake should reach tho In
dian unperceived bo will carry homo
chnrgo ol poison in a way not do-
sired. ' Alter the liver is thus charged

that be reserves for the purposo,
theso implements being spocinily do
signed for human foes. Tho poisoned
arrow aro not oniteo: at mo point,
but at tho end of tho shaft, whero it
enters tho burb, the latter boing al
ways loosely adjusted to tho arrow.
Whon the arrow is pulled out of tho
wound tho barb remains, and soon in
fects tbo blood of tho victim beyond;
all chances of recovery."

Cat-abthowk. Tho Cleveland Lead

of a machino culled tho 1'utoiil Cat
Exterminator. This is described as a
largo sheet iron cut with cylindrical
attachment, and steel claws and
teeth. The motive power is liko that
of a clock ; the tail is swelled up by
hollows in tho Interior, which also, by
a tremolo attachment, causes the par
ent cat lo utter wild cries of defianco.
Tho machino boing duly wound up, is,
placed upon the roof of tho houso.
Roused by its diabolical yolls, evory
