BLACKLEY - .Contxactox, 33viild.rT Carpenter, Being considerably interested in photography, and I thought perhaps, some few at least, of jour readers, might also be interested in this beautiful branch of art and the men who first discovered it. and photo, lieleugrapby expressions, graphy are synonjinons though, correctly spuiking, they differ somewhat as to their true meaning. while Ileleography means The photography means light effects certain substances more or less according to the intensity of the light. Amoug these substances are the salts of silver, salts of iron and bichromate of potasa ; nor is this all, for ivc observe it on every hand in nature, the trees, the fruits, the vegetables, in fact 1lants exposed to light everything, grow and thrive and are a beautiful, healthy color, while those that are protected from the light are of a pale, sickly color and do not thrive. Light is composed of several different rays, but as the actinic rays form the principal part in photography, we w 111 have more to say of these hereafter. The first knowledge of the cause of the change in silver salts is due to a William Charles Swcedish chemist, Scheele, about the year 1797. lie regarded the blacking effect of chloride of silver as caused by the reduction of the salts to the mctalic state aud the accompanying formation of hj drochloric ac d when exposed to the rays of the sun. He made a number of experiments to learn If all the colors of the spectr, m had an equal effect on the reduction of the silver salts and found that the maximum decomposition was in the violet part, while the change toward the red Here his was scarcely perceptalle researches ceased for a few years, when it w as taken up by John William Hitter, who made some experiments corroborating the statement of Scheele, but w itb-odeveloping anything farther. In the year 1802, an account was published of a process used by Josiah Wedgwood and Sir Humphry Davy of pictures being taken by the rays of the sun on a prepared silver surface. This was ac complialied by taking either leather or paper and stretching it upon a frame aud sponging it over with a solutiou of nit rate of silver, then taking a painting on lass and placing in direct contact a d e.rO'ing to the rays of the sun which made a picture directly opposite from what it should be as to light and shade Here they were compelled to let their efforts rest as there was then no chemical substance known that would dissolve the unaltered salts and leave that which was reduced to the metallic state uninjured. This must have taken place several year-prito the published account, os Wedgwood died iu the year 1795. Other parties were making experiments about tin same time as Scheele, Ritter, Wedgwood and Davy, although in another direct! n but without success. From 1802 vve ha e no account of any one prosecuting t: e study of photography until the year 1814, when a new labor: r took up the study, f whom we will have something to say light-writin- or Boomers Waiting to Enter Tlie Promised Land.

Wasatch WAVS Ey E EIDER HAGQAED, Augusta said no more till BlI Lad gone on, then she spoke. Now. Mr Meeson, do yon see how yotl eto moke your willv" she said qurely. See! No," he answered, I don't. "Well, 1 do; you can tattoo it or, sailor to tattoo it. It nood rather, get tho -not be veiy long." Tattoo it? VYbat on, and what with?" he asked astonished. You can have it tattooed on the back of tho other sailor, Johnnie, if ho will allow you; aud as for material, you have some revolver cartridges; If the gun- water it would do, mixed Fowder isthink." with 'Pon my word. said Mr. Meeson, you are a wonderful woman! Whoever would have thought of such a thing except a woman? Go and ask tho man Johnnie, there's a good girl, if he would mind my will being tattooed upon bis back." It'? a queer "Well," said Augusta, sort of message, but I'll try. Accordingly, taking little Dick by tho hand, sho went across to whore tho two sailors were sitting outside their hut, aud putting on her sweetest smile, first of all aRked Mr. Bill If he would mind doing a little tattooing for her. To tliis Mr. BUI, finding time hang heavy upon his hands, and wishing to bo kept out of tho temptation of tho rum cask, graciously assented, saying that he had seen some sharp fish bones lying about which would bo tho Tory thing, though ho shook his head at tho idea of using gunpowder as tho medium. Iio said it would not do at all well, and then, as though suddenly seized by an inspiration, started off down to the Shore. Then Augusta, as gently and nicely as she could, approached the question with Johnnie, who was sitting with his back against the hut, his battered countenance wearing a peculiarly U1 favored cx- session, probably owing to tho fact that to was suffering from severe pain in his head, as a esiUt of the debauch of tho previous night. Slowly and with great difficulty, for his understanding was none of tho clearest, sho explained to him what was required; and that it was suggested that he should provido the necessary, corpus vile upon which it was proposed that the expert ment should be made. When at last be understood what it was asked ho should do, Johnnies countenance was a sight to see, and his language was more striking than correct. The upshot of it was, however, that ho would see Mr. Meeson collectively, and Mr. Meeson's various members separately, especially his eyes, d - d first. Augusta retreated till his wrath had spent itself, and then once more returned to tho charge. She was sure, sho said, that Mr. John uio would not mind witnessing the document, if, anybody else could bo found to submit to the pain of tattooing. All that would be necessary would be for him to touch the hand of the operator while hir (Johnnies) name was tattooed ss witness to the will. Well, he said, I dont know how as I mind doing that, sinco its you as asked me, miss, and not that d old hulks of a Meoson. d I would not lift a finger to save hhn from ell, miss, and thats a fact!" Then that is a promise, Mr. Jolumle?" said Augusta, sweetly ignoring tho gar cishing with which the promise was adorned; and on Mr. Johnnie stating that ho looked at it in that light, sho re turned to Mr. Meeson. On her way she met Bill, carrying in his hands a loathsome looking fish, with long feelers and a head Uke a parrot, in short a cnttlo fish. Now, heres luck, miss, said Bill I saw this gentleman lying down on the beach there this morning. He's s cuttle, thats what be Is; and I'll have his ink bag out of him in a brace of 1 shakes; just the ticket fortattooing, miss; as good as the best India ink gunpowder is a fool to it. By this time they had reached Mr. Meeson. and here the whole matter, including Johnnie's obstinate refusal td be tattooed, was explained to BilL It Well," said Augusta at length, seems that's the only thing to be done; but the question Is, how to do it. I can only suggest, Mr. Meeson, that the will should be tattooed on you." Obi said Mr. Meeson, feebly, on mol Me tattooed like a savage tattooed with my own willl It wouldnt ho much use, either, governor, begging your pardon," said Bill, that is, if you is creak, as you save; 'cause where w ouid the will be then? With We might skin you a sharp stone, perhaps, after youve done the trick, you But then know, he added, reflectively. we have no salt, so I doubt If you'd keep; and if we set your hide in the sun, 1 reckon the writing would shrivol up so that all the courts of law in London could not make head nor tail of it. Mr. Meeson groaned loudly, as well he might. These frank remarks would have been trying to any man; much more were they so to this opulent merchant prince, who had always set the highest value on what Bill rudely called bis hide, There's the Infant, went on Bill, Hes young and white, meditatively. and I fancy his top crust would work wonderful easy; but youd have to hold him, for I expect that hed yell proper. Yes, said Mr. Meeson; let the will He'd be some bo tattooed on the child. us that wy Yes, said Bill; and therod alius he something left to remind him of a vary queer time, provided he lives to get out of it. which U donbU'nbCuttlc ink wont rub ont.

No," said Augusta, with a sudden flush, "there is not. Mt. Eustace Meeson was once very kind to me, and rather than he should lose the chance of getting what he ought to hare, I I will bis tattooed. Well, bust me! said Bill, With enthu slasm, bust met if you aint a good plucked one for a female woman! and If 1 was that there young man I should make bold to tell you so. that is an exYes, said Mr. Meeson, Your skin is very white, cellent Idea. quite as white and soft as the child's, and you are young and strong, and as there is lots of food here, I dare say that you will take a long time to die. You might even live for some months. Let us begin st I feel dreadfully weak. I dont think that I can live through the night, and if I know that I have done all I can to moke sure that Eostace gets his own, perhaps dying will be a little easier! CHATTER X mil meeson. Augusta turned from the old man with a gesture of impatiuuco not uumixed with disgust, llu soliishnubs was of an ordor that revolted her. I suppose, she said to Bill, with another LHbh, that I must have tk.s Mi! tattled upon my shoutueis. You "Yes, miss; thats it," said Bill. seo. miss, ono wants space for a doecy-mluIf it were a ship or a flag, now, or a fancy pictur of your young man, I might manage it cm your arm, but there must bo breadth for a legal doccymiut, more especially as I should lilto to make a good job of it while I is about it. I dont want none of them buyers a turning up their noses at BUI Jones' tattooing. Very well, said Augusta, writ ah inward sinking of the heart; I will' go and got readv." Accordingly she adjourned into the hut and removed the body of hor dress anr turned down the flannel garment under Death it iu such a fashion as to leave as much of her neck aud shoulders hare os is to bo seen when a lady has on a moderately low dress. Then sho came out again, dressed, or rather undressed, for tho sacrifice. Meanwhile Bill bud drawn out tho Ink bag of the cuttle, had prepared a little round fragment of wood, which he sharpened like a pencil by running it against a stone, and had put a keen edge on to a long white fish bone that he bad selected. Now, Mr. Bill, I am ready, said Augusta, seating herself resolutely upon a flat stone and setting hor teeth. My word, miss, but you have a beautiful pair of shoulders!" said tho sailor, contemplating the Bnowy expanse of skin with the eye of an artist. "I never had such a bit of material to work on afore. Hang mo if it ain't almost a pity to mark eml Not but that high class tattooing is an omimint to anybody, from a princess down; and in that you ore fortumt, miss, for 1 larnt tattooing from them as can tattoo, 1 did." Augusta bit her lip and tho tears came into her gray eyes, filiowas only a woman and hau a tvomans littlo weakness, and, though sho had never appeared in a low dress in her life, sho knew that her bust was one of her greatest beauties and was proud of it. It was hard to think that bho would bo tnaiked all her life with this ridiculous will that is, if sho escaped and, what was more, for tho benefit of a young man who had no iloim upon her the Last of t. atalL That was what she said to herself, hut as she said it something in her told her that it was not true. Something told hor that this young Mr. Eustace Meeson had a claim upon her the highest claim that a man can have upon a woman, for tho truth must out she loved him. It seemed to have corr.e home to her quite clearly hero In this dreadful, desolate place, here in the very shadow of an aw fill death, that she did love him, truly and deeply. And that being so, sho would not Lave been what slio was a gentle natured, do voted woman Lad slvo not at heart rejoiced at this opportunity of self sacrifice, even though that seh sanfifiee-t- t as of the hardest sort, seeing that it involved what ail women hate tho endurance of a ridiculous position. For love con do all things; it ran even make its votaries brave ridicule. Co on," she said, sharply, and lot us get it over A3 soon as possible." Very well, miss. What is it t V old gentleman? Cut it short, you know. I leave all my property to Eustace IL Meeson; that's as short as I can get it, and, if property witnessed, 1 think that It said Mr. Meeson, will cover everything, with a feeble air of triumph. "Anyhow, I never heard of a will that is to carry about two millions being got into nine words before. Bill poised his fish hone, and, next second, Augubta gave a start and a little shriek, for the operation had begun. Nover mind, tnlss, said Bill, consol-ingly- ; youll soon get used to it. After that Augusta set her teeth and endured in aliened, thougi It fCaliy hurt her very much, for Bill was more careful of the artistic effect and the permanence of the work than of the feelings of the subject. Hat experimentum in corpora viil, he would have said bod he been conversant with the classics, with out much consideration for the corpus viluuL. So he pricked and dug away with his Gsh bone, which be dipped continually in the cuttle ink, and with the sharp piece of wood, till Augusta began to feel per fectly sick. .For three hours the work continued, and at the end of that time tho body of the will was finished tot BUI was a rapid worker being written in medium sized letters right across her ivory shoulders But the signatures remained to be affixed BiU asked her if she would like to let them stand over till tho morrow, but this, although she felt faint with the pain, she declined to do. She was marked now, marked with the ineffaceable mark of Bill, so she might as weU be marked to some purpose. If she put off the signing of tho document till the morrow it might be too late. Mr. Meeson might be dead. Johnnie might have changed his mind, or a hundred other things. So she told them to go on and finish it as quickly aa possible, for there was only about two , hours more daylight. Fortunately, Mr. Meeson was more or less acquainted with the formalities that are necessary in the execution of a wUl, namely, that the testator and the two witnesses should all sign in the presence of each other. He also knew that it was suflic'.mt if, in case of illness, some third person held the pen between the - testators fingers and assisted or even if Mu?. writft., some one signed for the testator Li his presence and by his direction; and, argu Yng from this knowledge, he c&tno to the conclusion afterward Justified in the great caso of Meeson vs. Addison snd Another that it would be sufficient if he inflicted the flrst prick of his ci nt nr and then kept his Laud upon Bill while the rest was done. This accordingly he did, clumsily running the sharp bone so deep into the unfortunate Augusta that alio fairly shrieked aloud, and then keeping his hand npon the Sailor's arm while he worked in the rest of When J. Mocson. the signature, it was done the turn of Jolmnie came Johnnie had at length aroused himself to some Interest In what was going on, and had stood by Watching ail the time, since Mr. Meeson having laid his finger npon Augustas back had solemnly declared the writing thereon to be his last will and testament. As he (Johnnie) could not attoo, the same process was gone through with reference to his signature as In the Then Bill Jones case of Mr. Meeson. signed his own name, as the second witness to tho will; and just as the light went out of the sky the document was finally executed the date of the execution being alone omitted. Augusta got up off the flat stone where she had been seated during this torture for something like five hours, and, staggering into tho hut, tnrew herself down upon the sail and went off into a dead faint It w3, indeed, only by J-.- . hjs.-Pam- a very strong exercise of the will that sho had kept herself from fainting long before The next thing she waa conscious bf was a dreadful smarting In hor back, aud ou opening her eye found that it Was quite doik in tbeliut. bo weary was she, liowev'r, that after stretching out hor hand to assure bem-i- f that Dick was safe by ber side, she shut her eyes agam and went fast asleep. When she woke the daylight was creeping into the damp and squalid hut, revealing tho heavy form of Mr. Meeson tossing to and fro hi a troubled slumber on the further side. She got up, feellug dreadfully sore about the back; and, awaking the child, took him out to the stream of water and washed him aud herself as well aa she rould. It very cold outside; so cold that ths' child cried, aud the rain clouds were coming up fast, so she hurried back to the hut, aud, together with Dick, made her breakfast off sorno biscuit and some roast penguin's eggs, which were not st all bad euting She was, indeed, quite faint with hunger, having Swallowed no food for many hours, Jtnd felt proportionately better after it. Then she turned to examine the condition of Mr. Moesom The will Lad been executed none too soon, for it was evident to her that he was in a very bad way indeed. Iiis face was sunken and beetle with fever, his teeth were clisttorlng, and ids talk, though he was now awake, was quite incoherent. Sho tried to get him to tuke fcomo food, but ho would Swallow nothing but water. Having done all that she could for him, she went ont to see tho sailors, and met them coming down from tho fiag staff. They bad evidently boon at the i um cask again, though not to any groat extent, for Bill looked sheepish and shaky, while tho ill favored Johnnie was more sulky than ever. She gazed at them reproachfully, and then asked them to collect some more penguins eggs, which Jolmnlo refused point blauk to do, saying that he wasnt going to collect eggs for land lubbers to eat; alio might collect eggs for herself. Bill, however, started on the errand, and iu about an hour's time returned, just as the rain set in in good earnest, bearing six or seven dozen fresh eggs tied up in his coat. Augusta, with the child by her, sat in the miserable hut attending to Mr. ; while outsido the pitiless rain poured down in a steady, unceasing sheet Of water that came through the wretched roof in streams. She did her best to keep the dying man dry, hut it proved to be almost an impossibility; for even when sho succeeded in preventing the wot from falling on him from above. It got underneath him from the reeking floor, while the heavy damp of the air gathered on his garments till they were quite sodden. As the hours went on his consciousness came bock to him, and w ith It his terror for the end and his remorse for his post life, for alas! the millions he had amassed could not avail him now. 1 am going to die! he groaned. I am going to dio, and 1 ve been a bad man; I've been the head of a publishing com' pany all my life, Augusta gently pointed 6ut to him that publishing was a very respectable business when fairly and properly carried on, end cot one that ought to weigh heavy upon a man at the liiat Uke the record of a career of aucccssful usury or burgUng. Meeson shook his heavy head. Yes, yes," ho groaned; hut yotl are talking of most Anns. are of They private straight, them; far too straight, I used always to Meeson's know But don't you yon say. don't know the customs of the trade at Meesons. Augusta reflected that she knew a good deal more about Meeson's than she liked. Listen, ho said, with desperate energy, sitting up upon the soil, slid I will tell you I must teU you." Asterisks, so dear to the heart of the lady novelist, will best represent the confession that followed words are not equal to tho task. Mce-son- a t Augusta listened with rising hair, and realized how very trying must be tbd life of a private confessor. Oli, please stopl she said, faintly, at I can't bear it I can't, bideedi last. Ah! he said, as he sunk bock exhausted, I thought that when you understood the customs at Meeson's you would feel for me in my present position. Think, girl, think what I must suffer, with such a past, standing face to faoe with an unknown futurel Then came a silence. Take him awayl Take hlni SWay! suddenly shouted out Mr. Meeson, staring around him with frightened eyes. Who? asked Augusta; who? Him the tall, thin man with the big book! I know him; he used to be No. 25 he died years ago. He was a very clever doctor; but one of his patients brought a false charge against him and ruined him, so he had to take to writing, poor devil! We made him edit 1 fnedlcol encyclopedia twelve volumes for A300, to be paid on completion; and he went mad and died at the eleventh volume. So, of course, we did not pay hla widow anything. And now hes come for me I know he has. Listenl hes talking! Don't you bear him? Oh, heavens! Ho says that I am going to be an author, and he is going to publish for me a thousand years going to publish on the quarter profit system, with sn annual account, the usual Oh! trade deductions, and uo Touchers. olil Look! they are all coming! they are pouring out of the Hutches, they are going to murder me keep them off! keep them off!" snd ho howled and beat the air with his hands. Augusta, utterly overcome by this awful sight, knelt down by his side end tried to quiet him, but la vain. He con- Iteutd bwsririg'ita La'uds iu the Site, RTuT(f ' to keep off the ghostly train, till at last, i'k howl, liefhtev-k-tewAnd that was the end of Meosoft And tho works that he published, and the money that he made, and ths house that he built, and tbe evil that he did are they not written in the Book of the Commercial Kings? Well, said Augusta faintly to herself, when she had got her breath back a liltle, I om glad that it Is over; any way, I do hope that I may neve? be called On to nurse another publisher." Auntiel auptiel gasped Dick, 4rhy do tho gentleman shout so? Then, taking the frightened ejilld by the hand, Augusta made her way through the the rain to tho other hut fn order to two sailors what had coffio to pass. It had no door, and sho paused on the threshold to prospect. Tne faint foggy light was so aim that at first she could seo nothing. Presently, however, her eyes got accustomed to it, and she made Bill and Johnnie sitting opposite to out each other on the ground. Between them was the breaker of mm. Bill had a large shell In his band, which he had just filled from tbe cask, for Augusta saw him in the act of replacing the epigot.

Perhaps they quarreled in their drunken anger ana foil ever the little tliff, or perhaps they stumbled and fell, not knowing whither they were going. Who can say? At any rate, there-- they were, and there they remained, till the outgoing fide floated them off to join tho great army of their companions who had gone down with the Kangaroo, And ao Augusta waa left alone. Fortunately there WM but little rain that morning, ao Augusta took Dick out to look for eggs, not because they wanted any more, but in order to employ themselves. Together they climbed up on to a rocky headland, where the fiag was flying, and looked out across tbs troubled ocean. There waS nothing in sight so for os the eye could see nothing but the white wave horses across which the black cormorants Steered their swift, unerring flight She looked and looked till ber heart sunk within her. Will mummy soon come fn a boat to take Dick away? asked the child at her side, and theu she burst into tears. When she had recovered herself they set to collecting eggs,' an occupation which, notwithstanding the screams ant) threatened attacks of the birds, delighted Dick greatly. Soon they had as many as she could early; so they went back to the hut and lighted a fire of driftwood, and roasted sows eggs in the hot ashes; she had uo pot to boil them in. Thus, one way ana another the day wore away, and at last the darkness began to fall over the ragged peaks behind and tho wild wilderness of sea before. She put Dick to bed and he went off to sleep. Indeed, it was wonderful to see how well the child bore the hardships through which they were passing. He never had ofl ache or a pain, or even a cold Ki tbe head. After Dick was asleep Augusta rose to her knees and prayed to Heaven with all her heart and aotil to rescue them from their terrible position, or, If she waa doomed to perish, at least to save the child.
