Our by Electricity-What the
Paris Gaalight Journal anya.
Le Qaz, tbe Paris gaslight journ
al, Is somewhat sceptical as to the
practical efficiency of electricity as
an Illuminating agent, especially
for popular use. It says:
, We hear it said every day that
lighting by electricity Is making
progress, because the electric light
Has been fitted up in the Place de
l'Opera, at tbe Hotel dv Louvre, at
the offlce of the Figaro, and at the
Belle Jardiniere. In our opinion
that Is not progress, but simply an
experiment, like that resorted to
twenty years ago, when the cloth
ing establishment ou the Boule
vard St. Martin was lighted by
means of the electric lamps then iv
use.
We remember that iv ISO" or 1853
the galleries of the Conservatoire
dee Arts et Metiers were thrown
open the whole of ono evening to
visitors, who had beeu iuvited
by Gen. Morrln. On that occasion
the lighting was effected by the
electric light with Serrin regulat
or*, the excess of luminosity being
obeorbed by opaque glasses. The
grand Inner staircase was splendid
ly illuminated by two luminous fo
eusses; and although tbe soiree
lasted till nearly midnight, the
light never for a single mo
ment failed. There was the same
brilliancy, the same intensity that
we have to-day; and, moreover,
there were tbe same hopes, tbe
■am* promises, the same aspira
tions, the same certainty of success.
Twenty years have passed since
then-twenty years which have de
monstrated tbe practical inefflca
ciousnees of the system upon whio'j
so many hopes were based for tin
future.
It Is true that during those twen
ty years active minds have sought
to overcome this weakness, and
- tiiat tlieir recearohes have resulted
In the construction of more perfect
generators; machines have replaced
tbe pile—the candle is substituted
for the'regulator. This is undoubt
edly real progress; but the ellect
produced remains the earns. There
is still a too powerful light, which
is offensive to tbe eyes, and re
quires to be considerably modified
after it has beeu produced, in this
respect no advance whatever has
been made, for we are still unable
to produce a light of less illumina
ting power than that given by fifty
gas jets.
People talk of tho divisibility of
the light; but what has actually
heen arrived ul is simply the mul
tiplication of the lutniuous focuses
upon a single current. That is far
from having attained what is,
strictly speaking, - divisibility,
~ -wn/Wf consists in reducing the light
furnished by a luminous centre to
its very lowest proportions. In
this respect we are still as power
less as we were iv the past; and,
besides, cau this multiplication of
focuses upon a single current really
be effected? It is cerfaiuly open
to doubt, when we observe what
takes place in each lantern in tin-
Place de I'Opera. In eaoh group of
five lanterns there is, In fact, ouly
one, and that the highest, which is
lighted by electricity. Well, for
this single electric focus twelve
wires have beeu employed. Twelve
wires tor v single litfht, when
people boast of supplying twelve
focuses from a single current! That
.iajacontradiction which is striking
ly PSip-hle.
What About the Mail Robbers?
Wells, Fargo & Co., who ure
helping aa iv the development of
tbe country, have been repeatedly
robbed; so have passenger*. Worse
yet, that sacred institution, the U.
8. Mall, has been tampered with;
uay, butchered and despoiled of its
treasure and secrets. • The robbers
may be few and they may be many.
Busy tongues are accusing some
well-to-do peoplo of being cunceru
cd with the active robbers. The
matter needs thorough prospectiug.
The thieves, if caught, should have
a taste of tbe bitter, yes, large doses
of it. Death to stage robbers, and
their accomplices would be uoue
too harsh a war cry. Our people
cannot afford to permit such scoun
drels prey upor, them and the coun
try.—Arizona Enterprise.
Shad.— The Contra Costa Gazette
says: We have occasionally heard
of partially grown shad being tak
en by our liihermen for the past
three or tour years, and hope the
time is near at hand wheu our
water.' will abound with this deli
cately flavored fish, as the result ol
the plantings madu by our State
Commissioners. Last week Mr.
Mathews of Benlcia took a shad in
one of his nets, which weighed
three aud a half pounds, and for

Mr. Ei>rrua:—Having read in your pa
per lepotts of lhe remarkable cures ol ea
larrh, 1 am induced to tell '■ what I know
about catarrh," and I fancy tlie "suuff"
aud "Inhaling tube" makcis (mere dol
lar grabbers) would bu glad if iney could
emblazon a similar cure in the papers.
For 26 years 1 suttered with catairh. The
nasal passages became completelyclosed.
"Snutt," "dust," "ashes," "iuhaliug
tubes," and "sticks" wouldn't worn,
though ai intervals I would smff up the
so-called* caturih suulT, until I became a
valuable tester lor such medicines. I
gradually grew worse, and ud oue can
Know bow much 1 suffered or what a
miserable being I was. My head ached
over my t>yes until 1 was couhned to my
bed for many successive days, buttering
tbe most intense pain, whica ut one time
lasted continuously lor hid hours. AU
sense ot sitteil and feasts go»lc, tight and
heuring impaired, body shrunken
and weakened nervous system tbut
tered and constitution broken, und 1 was
hawking and spitting seven-eighths ofthe
lime. 1 prayed tor death to relieve me oi
my suffering. A favorable notice in your
paper ot Dr. singe's Catarrh Remedy in
duced me to purchase a package and use
it with Dr. Pierces Nasal Dotiene, wuii;n
applies tho remedy by hydrostatic pies
sure, the ouly way compatible with com
mon sense, W-ell, lift Editor, it did not
cure me In three-.ourths of a second, nor
Inonehour or month, but in less than
eight miuutes I was relieved, and in
three month* entirely cured, and have
rcuiaiucJ so over sixteen mouths. While
using tbe Catarrh remedy, 1 used Dr.
fierce's (Joldtu Medical Discovery to p.u
riiy my biood and strengthen my stom
ach. I also kept my liver active and
bowels regular by the use of his Pleasant
Purgative Pellet*. If my experience will
