DOWN THE MISSISSIPPI.

In the Spring of 1874, Mr. John P. Doremus, a pliotograpic artist, concluded to carry out an idea which he had long since conceived, of devoting a few years of his life to the prosecution of a work illustrative of the grand and varied scenery through which the "Father of Waters" flows from its headwaters to tho Gulf. After making all IiLs arrangements for departure west, Mr. Doremus started out for Minnesota, and on the 20th of July in that year, found himself at Minneapolis, standing on the deck of his own boat, called in token of his enterprise the Sneer**, and so fitted up as to combine all the requirements of a dwelling, pleasure boat, and photograph gallery. Upon this eornmoitious craft ho started out upon his long journey for the fair South, floating down on tho smoolh current of the river, stopping first at the romantic Minnehaha Creek, then at Fort .Hhelling and'Mendotii, the oldest settlement in the State,next at St. Faitl, and linally at Prescott, at tho confluence of the St. Croix, up which liver, with its picturesque Dalles, the tiny craft was turned to Osceola. Here winter overtook our wandering artist, and, fastening up his boat he came East, returning in the Spring, to flud that the Success had frozen fast to the river bottom. Nothing daunted he, by the aid of friends, put her in repair, and again in April started on his Southward journey. Regaining the Mississippi, he stopped in turn at Diamond Bluff and Rod Wing,and then emerged upon tho broad, mirror-like waters of Lake Pepin. Here a storm overtook him, and very near made an end of the 8itcrcm*, but tho boat survived it, reached Maiden Rock, Wis., in safety, thence passed out of Lake Pepin at its Southern Extrc. ill", and in October reached Minneiska, Where Winter again compelled it and its commander to stop. Ne::t season Mr Doremus hopes to get as far South as Dubuque, or Davenport, Iowa, calculating that the entire trip to New Orleans .will consume a period o£ about live years. At each [joint of interest on the river thus far he has taken line series of views, which wh^iv complete and brought together in a descriptive book will make a standard work on the Mississippi, and be au.honor to the artist who conetibutcd it to the literature of tho country.

A MOIM-a, FARM-GATE.

My father spent, one whole summer on a farm-gate which was a model of its kind. Two of them would have taken up a small farm. It was one of the most perfect things to climb over that you ever saw. It would give employment to two men to open it. A small engine would work it easily. I suggested to tho old gentleman an improvement by placing tho boards widor apart, so it would be handier to crawl through. He suggested an improvement in my manners with a shingle. It was nearly as good as a pair of slipbars. It was so hard to open that I always went to one side and climbed the fence. He Anally remodledd it and flxed it he could drive through it without getting out by letting the tongue of. the wagon strike it and knock it down, but he had. to get out when through and mit up again. He afterward remodeled it into stovewood-

men WITHOUT MONEY.

Many a man is rich without money. Thoi^iof mea with noLumg in their pockets, and thousands without even a pocket, are rich. A man born with a good sound constitution, a good stomach, a good heart, and good limbs, and a pretty good head-piece, is rich. Good bones are better than gold tough muscles than silver and nerves that flash and fire and carry energy to every function are better than houses and land. It is better than a landed estate to have the right kind of a father and mother. Good breeds and bad breeds exist among men as really as among herds and horses. Education may do much to check evil tendencies or to develop good ones but it is a great thing to inherit the right proportion of faculties to start with. The man is rich who has a good disposition —who is naturally kind, patient,cheerful, hopeful, a^d who has a flavor of wit and fun in his composition.

•CliUIOSlTIES OF LIFK

Lay your finger on your pulse, and know that every stroke some immortal passes to his Maker: some fellowbeing crosses the river of death and, .if we think of it, we may well wonder that it should be so long before our turn comes, Half of all who live die before seventeen. Only one ierson in ten thousand lives to be one hundred years old, and but one in a hundred reaches sixty. The married live longer than the single. There is one soldier to every eight persons, and out of every thousand born only ninety-five weddings take place. If you take a thousand persons who have reached seventy years, there are of clergymen, orators and public speakers, fortythree soldiers, thirty-two: lawyers, twenty-nine professors,twenty-seven doctors, twenty-four.

A LONG-LIVED FAMILY.

The Concord (N. H.) Monitor says: "C. W. Moore received an application for a policy on the life of a man in Lancaster, a few days ago, which furnished the following remarkable record of longevity on both sides of his ancestors: Grandparents—On father's side: Grandfather, 110 years grandmother, 95 years. On mother's side Grandfather, 100 grandmother, 98 years. His mother is living, aged 105 years, aud the lather died at 103 years. He has eight brothers and sisters living, of the following ages: 70, G8, 66, 64, 62, GO, 58,.and wars respectively. JFive children died in Infancy."

FRENCH ORDNANCE.

The superiority of our service construction of heavy guns is being proved not only by direct experiments at home, but-also by indirect means abroad. About the time whon the first trials of the 80-ton gun were going on,a French breech-loading gun corresponding to our 9-inch, and weighing about 14 cwt., burst violently at Gavre, when being fired with its service charge of powder and projectile. Tho French guns are constructed on a. system which, to say the least of it, has never met with any approval in this country. The body of the gun is of cast iron., the portion from the trunnions forward being entirely composed of this material. At the breach end the gun is lined with a steel tube as far as tho trunnions and, in order to strengthen it, according to tho advocates of this system,a series of steel rings is shrunk on tho breech, reaching as far as the trunnions—that is, over tho powder and shot chambers. Here therefore is a combination of two treacherous materials, cast iron and steel, so that any failure in the soundness of any part must lead to disastrous results. When to untrustworthy material is added a complicated system of breech-loading, the wonder is not that guns' so constructed sometimes burst, but that they can bo trusted at all. The gun which failed lately at Gavre burst violently, six men being killed and others being injured, though the gun was not being subjected to any extraordinary test, but was being fired as on service. It is only fair to conclude,thejofore,that the guns in use in the French navy being identical with that which burst, are liable to behave in a similar manner. As far as the experience of fifteen years can be relied on, no such accident can possibly happen to one of our much-abused heavy guns when the most ordinary precautions arc taken.

A NEGRO CHIEFTAIN.

One of the most remarkable characters who have influenced the history of the region of country between Timbuctoo and tho West coast of Africa, was a native of Futah Toro, known as the Sheikh Omaru Al-Hajj. He is said to have been a Walcen, a man of extraordinary endowments, of commanding presence, and great personal influence. He was educated by the Sheikh Iijani, a Moslem missionary from Arabia. Having spent several years under tho instruction of this distinguished teacher, visiting Mecca in tho meanwhile, he became profoundly learned in tho Arabic language. After the death ot' his master he went twice to Mecca on pilgrimages. On his return to his country the second time, he undertook a series of proselyting expeditions against the powerful Pagan tribes on the East and Southeast of Futah Toro. He conquered several powerful chiefs, and reduced' tti nr people to the faith of Islam. ll-o banished paganism from Sego, and purified the practices of several Mohammedan districts Which -had become imbued with heatheni 'notions. He thus restored Jenne •.^amd-Allahi and was on his way .i^ 1?imbuctoo,about ten years ago, whefi? lUvc^ugh the treachery of tho Arabs ?/Sm^ rejgioa^ he wafe circumvented :'a a town ifi Mfisina. Onetof ij| sons if. «ow King of Sego, another rules over Hamd-Allahi—two of the largest cities in Central Africa. Alhajj Omaru wrote many Arabic works in prose and poetry. His poems are recited and sung in every town and village from Futahtown, in Sierra

Leone to Ivano. His memory is held in tlu greatest respect by all native students, and they attribute to hip many extraordinary, deeds, and see in his successful enterprises, military and literary, proofs of divine guidance. -X

A STRANGE STORY.

Mr. Sindall, who lives in Baltimore, accompanied by his son, a lad eleven or twelve years Of age, recently was at the Custom House and in maritime circles seeking for ovideneo that would confirm a strange story told by the boy. Mr. Sindall said that his son had been lost since May 8, 1873. The boy, whose story was not veiy clearly told, said he was oa the coal wharves,probably Locus Point, as a brig was about to sail. The captain asked the lx&y to come on board, and go down as far as Holly Grove, where he would be landed. The boy consented, and the brig started down the bay. After gating for a long time the boy states he was put on board of a large ship, where he remained in the capacity of cabin boy. He says the ship went to China, and he gave some description of the people he saw there, but says he was not allowed to land, and had not been on shore for two years and a half. The ship (same back to* Baltimore, reaching here on Monday of last week. Tho loy sayfe he stole off from the vessel and made his way home. He gave the name of the vessel as the Pa scar ft, commanded by a Captain Ward, but there is no such named vessel in this port, nor has there ever been, so far as marine records of the past disclose. The statement of the father that his son has been lost for the time named is doubtless correct, but the story of the boyis not yet authenticated. Baltimore Hun. fad Mi -.u

THE Reverend C. Hamblin,. who has for many years been a missionary among the Mohammedans, declares

On mother's side Grandfather, 100 grandmother, 98 years. His mother is living, aged 105 years, and the father died at 103 years. He has eight brothers and sisters living, of the following ages: 70, 68, 66, £4,62, 60, 58, and 4o. years respectively. 'Five children died in infancy."
