Here the birth of the cable may te
traced through shop afier shop, uoa
ehiue after luuehiue. The foundation
of all is the conductor, a Blraiid of
even fuuull -copper witee.. This slen
der copper cord is first hauled through
a inaB8 tX sticky black oompoand,
which causes the (bin coating of gulia
pi-rcba applied by the next umcbiue to
adhere to it perfectly, and prevents the
retention of any bubbles of air in tbe
interstice between (he strands, or be
tween tbe conductor aud lb gutta
percha envelope. One envelope ie not
sufficient, however, but tbe full thick
nes of iiifiilatiug material bits to be
allained by fouf more alternate Coat
ings of sti-jky compound aud plastic
gutta-percha. The conductor is-now
inKulaied and 1ms developed iuto core.
Before going -any further the core- ia
coi'ed into tanks filled with water and
(eftted t-o as to ari:urtaiu w het her it is
electrically perfect, i. e., (hat,, theie in
no undue leakage of electricity through
the gtit'a-percha iiisulaliug enveJope.
Three tdnts are made from the test
ing room, replete with beaatiful and
elaborate aparaftis, by which ineusere
neuto finer aud more accurate than
those even of the most 'delicate ohetn
icnl balance may bo madf. Every
foot oi core is tested with the?e instru
ments both before and afier being'
made up into cable,
After the qprn has been tested a id
parsed, the manufacture of the -cable
goes on. 1 fio core travels through an
olhor set of machine', which first wraps
it with a thick serving of tarred jute,
and then with a compact armoring of
steel wir?o. of varying ibicknens- ac
cording to the depth of water in which
tbe cabin Is ibteud-ed to be laid. Anove
the aiuioring iu order to preserve the
lion, from rust as long as possible, ' l
applied a covering of tout canvas
tape thoroughly . impregated with a
piich-like compound, and eoiueliiueo
the iron wires composing the armor
are separately covered with IUiHbiau
hemp as au additional perservative
against corrosion. U. L. -.Webb -iu

Qawtiuu. " ' .
"What is the policy or the Demo

qiteKtion propounded to' Senator, Hill,
of New York to-day. . .';.;
Mr. Hill smiled oue of his knowing

childlike and bUiud ;
'! am a new Senator and have not as
yet been able to discover that tbe

As tbe Senator turned to go away, I
plumped another queudou at him:
Senator the burning question of the
hour is how wiU you vote oa freo sil

The Renator was unprepared : for 'so
leading a question, and it evidenly dis

The dtath of ex-Clov. Holden recFilU
an incident connected with t.!a eaily
life that is very interesting and cal
cula'ed to inspire the hopes ami ambi
tion of st nursling boys. (iov. II olden
related tbe incident lo me on n oc
cation with his accustomed modesty.
Vhem be was the cOce bey (printer's
devil as they are sometimes called) in
tbe Ilocorder ofTice at Ililb-b iro one of
his duties was to deliver the 1'eceriier
to its town subscribers on each publico
lion day. On one cold, crtepy uiorning
young Iloliksn started out to deliver
bis papern. ill clad and barefooted.
At tbe palatial home of a very prom
inent man breakfast bad juat been an
nounced. tTbo good lady led tbe
shivering lad Into thediuiug room and
toJd biai lo nil dowu by the lire aud
warm ;".s -, .' -
At the labia sat a tall4 handsome
youth, fresh from lnurela won at a
Chapel Hill coinmeucemeut, at which
te had recently graduated. - "I looked
at. him," said the Governor, "and
thought how happy I wou'd ba If
had his oppori uuiiies, aud then I
thought what a gulf there- is between
Us nnd how uneven are ou reliances iu
life. But I determined then aud there
that I wouid keep pace with bim in
life's struggle." :-:'i:r''l''iy.-':i":-.
When bo went to leave the good
lady said : "Wait, B:Uie, and get
. bisruit," and then addressing her
young, handsome visitor she said;, ;
''Tommy, butter a biscuit aud band,
it to Billie." The young -man readily
complied and as vhe ragged newr buy
walked off eating his bread with much
fdixh De registered .another vow.
Thirty ytari later I he boy tbat gave
tbe biscuit was defeated for Governor
of North Carolina by tbe same', little
barelooted lad t't whom it was given.
F. B. Aehndell,-
' Tobacco bieuia M Fertilizers.' :
Tobacco stems and refuse of any
kind are often used as. fertilizers ; for
.otutb i a leading couatUurnt of the
plant. The-stems, either wiiole or
ground, if spread upon tbe surface will
have moHt of the potash leached out of
them by the rains that follow and be
absorbed by the imL When own
liroiidcnt on pasture lands or lawus
their influence will be shown in the
increased vigor of tho grass. They
may aUo be ploughed uuder as a useful
aanure for hoed crops. Tobacco is
considered an exhausting crop, but it
leaves the ground In' excellont condi
tion to be fojlawed by: wheat, and
when the tobacco is not cut down, hut
the leave are pulled and the atlks
are left lo be ploughed under, they
leave a large amount of potash ia tbe
soil for a sncceeding crop. .
Cold Frame Hot Beit.
. Cold frames have much the same
force of construction as hot-beds. In
the cold framo the finely pulverized
soil is warmed from tbe beat of the sun
received through the glass covering,
which also excludes the cold night a!r
Iroua the terminating seeds or lender
yoang plants. In the hot be 1 beat is
cnaiuly derived froai (bo fermenting
manure iu the bottom. Thin, with tbe
sol ir beat ad led, is very forcing, and
H requires dii'Jy attention and frequent
watering lo gt the bent Testtlts from a
hotbed. In the S ulh the col 1 frine
will a ua!!y meet all tho re(j lirerniMiU
for early forcing. Cold frames are fre-
-quently covered with coarse cotton
cloth instead of the more expensive
method of sash mid glarS. '

Here is a war against tbe Democratic

Few people whohandlo pennies -every
day are aware of the rarity . of the one
cent piece of 1877. The coinage, as re
ported by tho mint for that year, does
notappear small, for" the mint year
ends June 85, and therefore does not
Indicate how ,many of a coinage bear
the calendar year for ;the date. ' Thus,
the coinage for the year ending June
30, 1S7G, Included lialf of the year 1878,
and the -coinage for tht year ending
June SO, 1877, comprined, half , of the
year 1877. . ."-' - ., '
Uusiness during ib77 was at a very
low ebb and little demand existed for
pennies. ' Few were minted, therefore,
while In 1870 and 1878 the coll was
urgent. It Is doubtful if the exact
number stamped "1877" is known even
to tlie mint ofScers themselves. , Ad
inquirer was Informed by 'them in Fr
ruary, 1873, that less than 10,000 had
been stamped. ; This-, would mean an
issue of less than 1,000,090. In point
of fact, however, it Is probable that the
actual coinage was far loss. New York

' Could not a pledge be taken against

Why cannot the ladies tell the 'rector

I have soon -hundreds of barbonj'
trade secrets exposed,, but I have never
seen a reason given in print for men
parting tht-ir hair on the loft' side , In
more than nine cases out of ton., 1
talked tho matter over with a physi
cian onco, and he wild ft might bo only
a coincidence, but that ut least nine
men out of ten -sleep on their right
side, because by so doing digestion ia
Aided and the action of the heart is loft
undisturbed. . ...; '; ; . .'.-', -.
That, I think, accounts' for tho hair
parting, because the warmth of Ui'o side
i0f the headpressed Into the pillow great-
lyaidsthe growth of the hair, andamnn
naturally parts his hair so as to brush
it' in "the direction of the greatest
growth. This also accounts for what
almost every one who baa tried to keep
his mustache aii.1 board evenly trimmed
must bavo noticed that he has to trim
the right sido more frequently than tho
loft. Warmth Is the best hair toulo
