RAILWAYS

The Railway is an iron track for wheels: i

ef q lower according to circumstances. ant
consists of two parallel linvs of irun bars. uu1
together IN joints supported by stones. The
rails or length Of bars have shape adapted
skiltully to contain the least weight with mos,
: strength. They are deepest in4he middle. and
the deep part is thin. The surface about two
inches broad, and little convex
The wheels OF the rall-wagon are of cast and
wrought iron. The rim of cast iron has a rails.
ed ring or ilaunch near ITS outer edge. and.fhe
same on the other wheel The wheels beino
fixed firmly on the axle cannot recede from each
other; SO that these launches, though distant
apart, constitute in effect groove which keens
both wheels on their rails respectively. The
axle evolves with tho wheels it has in IL two
turned spots or journals, on which the load
bears, with brass bearings to diminish friction
Thus the main points in a railway are to pre.
seat hard, smooth surface for the wheels h
get rid OF all resistance which loaded WAGON
meets with when moving on the soft, uneven
surface Of the ground
~ Is reckoned in England that horse can.
not draw more than three fourths Of ton on fine

BIRD LAWS. The Legislature of this Com
monwealth enacted law in 1917 for the pro-
lection of certain birds. This law is sometimes
forgotten, and, we suspect is not unfrequently
violated without the plausible apology of igno.
rance, or ms-recollection. With the hone.
that the law will be enforced both against the
wiliul and the needless, and for the benefit of
others who would not willingly transgress any
wholesome restraints, we give an outline of the
legal provisions, which may at least serve to
put people on their guard. The Act provides.
" that no person shall take, kill, or destroy, any
of the birds called woodcocks snipes larks. and
Robins, at any time between the first day of
.afarch and The fourth dug of July in each wear. :"
For killing any of the above mentioned birds at
the unlawful season, the offender is liable to n
fine Of 80 to the Commonwealth for each wood.
cock, and of 81 for each Robin snipe. or lark
In addition to this penalty, the offender, who
kills one Of these birds on another mans land. is
liable to pay $40 to the owner of the land. on
which the bird was killed, for each offence.
This law is in full force, and the community
should not allow such beneficial act to become
dead letter. The undiscriminating war of
determination, which is too generally carried
on against the feathered tribe, with Total dis
regard to their beauty, their usefulness in des-
troying insects, and their melodious notes. is

SURGICAL. A grandson of Mr.. J. Burchard
aged ~ years, was born with but one nostriI
and his mouth so much awry and deformed that
ne was unable to close it by the space of an inch
surgeons OF emlnence, far and near, were re-
quested to operate ON the child, but So faint vas
the prospect Of success they uniformly declined,
On the 10Th March, however, DR.. Emmons Of
this town gave it as his opinion that something
might be done and he accordingly commenced
by cutting the loft side of the face--after de-
tactmg the ligatures that held the skin and
muscles askew, he brought down nan from
the lett SIDE over the nose which completely
answered the purpose by forming another nos
tril. tie then brought the parts of the mouth
together in proper shape and dressed the
wounds IN the usual way. Such is the success
which has attended this operation that the how
is now well, and so much improved both :,
looks and speech, that those who formerly knew
MN can hardly recognize him for the same
person. Ptltiamstoaon .4drOcato.

stamped with hieroglyphic characters,w
determine the date OF this interesting mon
qment OF antiquity. They are the Royal
Legend OF Yemesses V. the Amenophis,
Memophls of the Greek writers, the father
OF the great Sesostris, and the last mon
arch OF Manetho's 18th, dynasty of the kings
OF Egypt. He sscended the throne of the
Pharaohs in the year 1893, B. C. The in
dlvldual, therefore, whose remains are still

The Committee on the adjournment have fix
ed upon the 26th May as the last day of the SEES
sion, This early period will cut off many i'm.
portant bills which have been matured The
report has not yet been concurred in. Perhaps
the following Monday, The I'd of June, may be
fixed upon.
The Tariff bill was reported to-day, i'll the
Senate, with amendments. The amendments
give to the bill a more acceptable form than it
had as it came from the House II is probable
that the amendments will be adopted by the
Senate, and that the bill will pass that body.
Whether the amendments will be concurred in
| by the House of Representatives is another
question depending on circumstances them
selves uncertain. am disposed TO think, how
ever, that the New England Representatives in
the House will vote for it in its amended form,
and that sufficient number of the New Yorl.
and Pennsylvania Jacksonians will join them
to carry the bill. The Goth day of May, WILL
however, in all probability, prevent the bill from
going to the House in time for consideration
and decision
The committee on the Presidents message
relative to the assault on his private secretary
has not made report. They have it is said
sent to Boston to take tho deposition of the
ladies' to whom Mr.. Jarvis refers in his communi-
cation. 1t is obvious that the object of the
committee is to screen Mr.. Jarvis. With this
view, they have gone into the origin of the
quarrel, instead of combining themselves to the
affair as it concerns the peace and dignity OF
! Congress.

MAHOGANY. Few people are acquaint-
ed with the immense size and value of some
logs of mahogany The following NAV
serve as an example =" The largest and
finest log of mahogany ever imported into
the country was sold by auction at the docks
in Liverpool. 1t was purchased for three
hundred and seventy eight pounds, and af-
forwards sold for five hundred and twenty
five pounds, and if it opened well, was sup
posed to be worth about one thousand
pounds. If sawn into veneers it was COM
puted that the cost of labor in the process
would be seven hundred and fifty pounds.
The weight was six tons thirteen hundred
weight. English paper.
