Board of Works. As dnsk descended on the riv er, Sir James McGarel-Hogg, the chair man ; Sir Joseph Bazalgette, the engin eer; and Mr. T. W. Keates, the con sulting chemist, accomjpained by .other members of the BoartT, m?fae tlieir 'wtIy to the wooden hut erected close to Chairing-cross Bridge, where they found M- Gun dot, the representative ot the Societe-Geuerale d’Electricite, aud the engineers of the company, ready to test the power of the machinery laid down tc operate at the long range re qnired. Shortly afterwards the ques tion was set at rest by the illumination of the ten globes which alternate with those lighted by gas between Chairing- cross and Westminister bridges. While yet some truces of the waning day re mained the superiority of the electric light over gas was not very distinctly marked, but no sooner had night de scended ou the river than the contrast between the two methods of illumina tion became startling. The minora siiicra of gas struggled ineffectually for recognition side by side with the great moons which threw their radfiiuce, if not quite across the river, at least as far as the second arch from the Surrey side of West-miutSler-bridge, aud lit the Embankment itself almost a giomo. That this is uo more figure of speech was proved by numerous experiments made by passers by. As the electric lamps are about a hundred aud twenty feet apart, it would without- great a..d, indeed, wasteful cost be impossible to light every part ef the Embankment equally, but so strong was the light generally diffused tli -t- large type could easily bo road at fifty, aid srnaMer kinds at thirty, f.:et from the centre of the lamp-pod to which the chctiic light has been fitted. The effi-et of the ton electric light when seen from a dis tance was not less remarkable than that presented m close observation. From the centre of Westminsterjitidfim they appeared to pi river nn.ittained cat gloom. Far over the river wasflm _ a light amply .sufficient for all the pur poses of navigation, while near the north shore the illumination was so itn iig ns to i llicit loud expressions of ns'onishraout and admiration from the ntiinnmns spectators. To those ad van- vai cing from the Surrey side the scene presented was one of singular beauty. Beyond the range of the. few gas lamps just below the bridge, stretched a great black shapeless mass in which neither form nor colour was discernible; Next appeared a multitude of small glowing points resembling the. dying-out stars of a pyrotechnic boqnet, while in front of all these varieties of gloom shone the light. There eoiild he no possible doubt as to the splendor and efficiency of the of the light supplied, nor could those who had watched the experiments in the Avenue de 1‘Opera, the Place do rOperu, and at the Arc de Trimoplie at Paris, refraiu from expressing, their pleasure at the vast superioity of the iightiug of the Tliames Embankment. Had both sides of the roadway been il luminated, this superiority would li ve been made still more apparent; but enough could be seen from the ten lights iu use to stamp them as the most effective yet seen iu actual prac tice. One of the reasons of thfe better be havior of the Jablocbkoff candle on the Thames Embankment than elsewhere will probably be found in the superior motive power applied, to the generating engine, aud the amount ef care and skill displayed iu firmly fixing and bolt ing down al the mechanism employed. Thinking it possible that the failure of many attempts at electric lighting were due to the haste with which the apparatus had been set- m>. Mr. Head, of Messrs Eansomes, Sims, and Head, of Ipswitob, took great pains that the twenty-horse power engine lent by his firm for these experiments should be in thorough working order before any attempts at lighting were made, and al so that the duplex Gramme machine for generating the alternate currents re quired by the Juklochkoff candle, should be so firmly placed as to cause no accidental vibration. The result & complete success. In the candles burned fast night there was no more .sign of flickering - than might be to- counted for by inequalities in the text ure of th* carbon pensile, and this very •light in the cnee of ioma f«w lamp*, was entirely absent in the others, which burned with marvellous steadiness. The brilliant expriments would there fore tend to pr-'Ve that the maiu short comings of the Jabloclikuff system, as tried iu Paris, and.on the first occasion at Billingsgate, have arisen either from <waut «r power, irregularly iu its appli cation, or some defe-ct in, fixing the macLinery firmly ou its bed. This much at least is certain, that granted high power and perfectly-arranged me chanism, iite Jabloclikoff caudle, what- tbrobbings, or sadden fits of dimness noticeable on idl or nearly all previous times of its exhibition in public. So many doubts have been expressed as to the possibility of working so large a circuit as that successfully compassed yesterday, that M, Gandet declares that not seven hundred and thirty yards, the distance trom the engine-house of the farthest lamp lit last night, but a mile is the limit at which a circuit can be successfully made—-an important el ement in the.cost of elecriie lightning, should it be adopted for the public use. As the matter stands, there is no doubt tnat the machine which makes circuit at seven hundred aud thirty yards will ackeive the lesser feai of illuminating the lamps between Chairing-cross and Waterloo-bridges. It is hoped that the machinery has been tried and found peif :ct the remaining work of prepera- tion will be complete by Monday evening. If so the score of Jabloch- kofi lamps extending from Westminis ter to Waterloo-bridge will be lighted, and the whole curve of the liver brill iantly illuminated. What has ahead}’ seen excites anticipations of the appear- mce of the Thames if if should ever be lighted up on both sides and on the bridges by means of electricity. Of the beauty of such illumination there can be no -doubt, but the cost of sueh a magnificent improvement is yet un known, and it is to ascertain this that a series of experiments will be carried ou for perhaps three months to come by the Socioto Generals d’Bleclricite, who have placed their plant at the dis- po*iti*u ef the Metropalit an Board of Work*.—London Netos. The follow in -• portrait of the ameer at home appears iu au Italian paper. At is taken from a lecture by an English mis sionary. Mr Hues, who speaks from his i-wu experience. What is the use of my reidiiig or writing. I have hundreds of people to do it for one. He is. how ever. well up iu history, tlie result of c invrsati.ins with lea n d men, by whom he liked to to be surrounded. Iu public he is frugal and sober, but iu private he is a drunkard. He is bellicose, and a thorough warrior; those who saw him at Uiuballa put lie has all the qualities His instincts are he rccouqaered his throne after the civil war, he owed his success to three persons—his broth er, his nt-plii-w, and his sou, Yakoob Kuan. The first thing he dal was to cause his brother to lie strangled; to send his nephew to Lahore, where he died in captivity, and to confine his sou iu a prison at Kabul. “Ilie ameer, ” concluded the lecturer, “is not an interesting character in any way and I, who know him personally, have no hesitation iu culliug him a savage.” A suit involving many millions of dol tars has been brought against the railroads of Tennessee. It is proposed, so it is reported, to bring a suit against the state for 85.000,000. It is pro posed to arrange it so that some -Stele will bring suit against Tennessee. It will be tested whether one State cau sue auother Sta'e. A donation of §100,000 in these funded coupon bonds will be made to a certain Sootliern State for the benefit of herclraritabl© institutions It is understood that- proceedings will tlieu be instituted by which that State will bring suit- against the State of Ten nessee for the amount of (lie funded coupons held tor such institutions. Correspondence Is now going ou be tween this dues of State creditors for the purpose of perfecting the arrange ments necessary to briug the suit. The question will attract very great interest, and will, no doubt be earned to the United States Supreme Court. GUANO. The planting interest in this country, and the true interest of every legitimate bnsiness are insepere-ble. No one who desires a general prosperity can feel in different to the welfare of the planters. It is proper then that others, as well as planters themselves, shall consider the question, just now of especial in terest, whether or not , under existing circumstances the planters ought to buygn-ano. ' Of'course they o right to know for themselves what is best, and doubtless they do, but sometimes they follow the crowd right or wrong; and it is impor tant to make a timely effort to start the crowd in the right direction. A para graph of statistics mav ar.swer for that pi rpt se. It is well known that large reecipts of cotton at the ports invaria bly depress the markers. And the in- ereuce is unavoidable that all other in- influences, seperate or combined, are less i otential tban this one. It is true too that the moneyed speculators follow indications promptly and push the mar ket to the utmost of their ability iu whatever it takes. Large crops gener ally take the downward course, aud a liberal use of commercial fertilizers makes large crops. Even this would uot conclude the question against gua no if it could he shown that it made cheap crops. But an article expensive inriiseif, aud powerful in its advercs influence upon the market value of; what it produces must d* wonderfully eificaiioDfl ns n producer to fairly offset both ra own cost and its tremendous effect upon prices especially as its effl- euey must increase the effect. Bnt the statistics. • The total crop of 1873 4 was 4.170,3S8 b lies. The net proreeds per bale for that emp were §60.43. Col ton sold in any market will yield a- bunt the same net proceeds, the differ er.ee of price being countei balanced by tlie tost of transportation &c. By he u»e of feitilizets the crop of 1875 6 was swelled to* 4.032,313 b.les and the uet proceeds of that crop, liar bale wrre 849.89. There was no ma terial difference iu average weights. The difference in proceeds was very iiearly-25. percent aud tlie smaller crop returned to the planters not far from 820,000,000 more than the larger. What tLe guano cost is a momentous question. Let some one make au esti mate, and add it to the difference iu proceeds of the two crops, aud then an swer the question, ought planters to buy guano? Advm Ul’SON. A ST A 111 IN LIFE. I would rather that my boy possessed good comuiou sense to abut him in life than pleut-y of money. • If he has not this common Sense, no amount of training will alter ids condition in this respect. Wheu I hear a father call his child a ninny, u blockhead, a simpleton, a stupid donkey .or a fool (its some par ents will wlteu they forget themselves,) it occurs ro met bat such remarks Hith er reflect ou the head of the family. Tlie child, however, usually knows very well that his father is only excited, and does not really mean what he says. The next desirable requisite iu my child’s outfit would, be a naturally cheerful disposition; not- that I prefer tin* natural to the cultivated," for I do not. Cultivated cheerfulness is a char ming part of any one’s character; yet the natural is the surest, since I am very dontful as to my being able to teach how to acquire it. I should try THE TITLES OF THE LEES. In this case of Lee againls Kanff- tnauri (Superintendent of the Ailingtou National Cemetery), before the United States Circuit Court of Alexandria, to recover pass sion of the Arlington estate, the plaintiff’s claim to the title is set forth about as follows: Charles I, King of England, claimed all the land in America whieli John Cabot discovered iu 1A97 J . He .granted Robert. Howsou, in 1699,-. soma 6,000 acres of land stretching along the Poto mac, from Analostou Island to Great Hunting creek,and including Arlington. Hov.son ,in November, 1669, sold this land to Robert Alexander (No. 11 LORD ULLANS D l UGUTER. The Facts in the C i s e Set Forlh in Humble Prose.

W. Custis, who devised the land in in 1855 (after a life estate to his mothe.) to George Washington Custis Lee, up on Lee’s t»king( Guam) name and arms. Arlington was placed tn posesion of the Custis family en Christmas day, 1778, and was *iill its heme on Christmas day, 1869. In tbo wsmmer of 1881 tbi» daa gh ter of Mr. Curtii, the wife of Genera Lee, joined her husband in tne South, and on the 6th of June, 1864, the Uni- Staies assumed possession under a tax title, aud have since held the estate. Wiiat Is Castle Soap?—A Suliscri her wishes to know how this differs from other soap. The hard buapsmadc in this country are . almost exelnsively front animal fats; in the south of Eu rope, where the olive grows abundant ly, the jmorer kinds of olive oil are used, for soap-making, Common soap* are soda and auirnal fat* Castle soap is soda and vegetable oil" Iu making soap, great care is taken to avoid an ex cess of alkali (the soda), only just e- uough being used to neutralize the oil. On this account the soap i3 much mil der, aud may be nsed on wounds and other surfaces where common soap would irritate and give pain. The. mottled npearauce of castle soap is due to a small quantity of solution of coj>- porns (sulphate of irou) which is stirred into it before it hardens; this leaves a bluish rxide of iron in the soap which when exposed to the air, becomes clian-* god to red oxide. White Castle soap is also sold, which is the same as the oilier, without coloring. Thongh called Castle, It is by no means exclu sively made in Spain, the largest share coming from the south of France, and indeed it is generally known in Europe as Marseilles soap. —American Agri culturist ■ Among the Republicans who visited Florida pending the action of the re. turning board was Gen. Francis C Builow, of New York. This gentleman afterward wrote a muuly letter clearly indicating a conviction that the elec tonal vote of Forida belonged by right to Tildeu. Iu the testimony given on Wednesday by Second Asssslant Post master General Brady was a telegram sent by him from Florida to his chief, Mr. Tyner, giving a suspicion- that “the New Yorker” was acting “contra- ' E to our inten si.

Edison, being interviewed as to the progress of his experiments with the electric light, declares that he has not lost faith in it. Far from it. The Tight, be says, is already perfected so far as its divisibility and adaptability are con cerned, and he is now experimenting with a view to cheapemug it._ His fight, he says,will be about tlie same intensity as a bright gaslight. It will be whit er and will show everything in its nat ural color. “The trouble” be adds, “about the delay is that laboratory ex periments, although they may show something to be perfectly, practicable to. one fatnilar with such things.yet they require carefnl study before being in troduced in to general use. I have intro duced several systems to the pnblie al ready and 1 know what I ga talking •bout. The Democratic caucus in Washing ton discussed the question of the selec tion of jurors in the Unifed States Courts, and jngreed that the clause of the judiciary act which provides that jurors shall have the same qualifica tions in the United States Court as they have in, the, highest court of the State wherein they serve, should be carried out. It was also proposed to repeal the sections of the act impobing the iron-clad oath on jurors. ‘•Luckiest man I ever knew—every thing succeeds with him.
