DEATH IN LIBERIA.-We have letters before us
from Monrovia up to June, which announce the
death of the Hon. H. Teage. This will be great
loss to the Republic of Liberia. Mr.. Teage was
without doubt one of the ablest and best read men
in Liberia. He was the editor and proprietor of
the Liberia Herald, and had filled several of the
highest Offices in the gift of the people. A letter
of the 23d of May says: "My reason for writing
is to inform you of the almost sudden death of the
Hon. H. Teagc, your friend and my 'benefactor.
He died on the 2lst instant. was sick in bed
when the unwelcome tidings of his death were
brou hit to me, and for awhile | could not fully
realize the truth of the report; but when, IN a few
moments, so many living testimonies of the sad
disaster stood before me, ! was forced to believe
and submit to the heavy stroke. Surely no man s
death could be more lamented by Liberians." An
other letter of the 9th of May says: GA great
star has fallen in this Republic. The Hon. Hilery
Teage is no more. The praises of departed great
ness have been said or sung in the lofty tones OF
the orator, or in the enchanting strains of the
poet. The statues of heroes and princes, and the
encomiums of statesmen have proclaimed their
worth, as the martial prowess of the one or the
brilliant genius of the other may have fired the
world or attracted the admiration of men. The
Republic of Liberia mourns the departure of a
statesman who has long filled prominent post in
this land, both Church and State.

THE New MOTIVE PowER.-We have already
referred to the invention of new motive power,
from which its projectors anticipate great results
The force applied is magnetic attraction, and the
power is applicable to driving machinery, loco
motion, navigation, and all other purposes for
which steam is employed. 1t is also capable of
lighting and warming The great advantage of
this power is its cheapness, nothing being con
snmed, and no cost necessary in generating it.
The machine has been applied to the magnetic
telegraph with entire success. An engine is near
ly completed to test the invention as motive
power on large scale. The stock is in the hands
of some of the shrewdest business men in Provi-
dence, and SO much confidence is in the success of
the experiment, that shares, the original cost of
which was $50, have changed hands at $3.50 If
it answers the expectations Of it's friends, limits
can hardly be put to its value if it fails, it will
be in the category of many other good things.

The VIcKsBURG AND Ell PAso RAILRoAD.--The
charter for railroad through the State of Texas,
from some point on.Red river to Ell Paso, was
granted year ago last February intended to be
continuation of the road previously chartered
by Louisiana, from Vicksburg to Shreveport on
Red river The corporators of this company held
meeting at Tyler, Smith county, last April
w. r. d. Ward, ESQ.,, was elected president and
directed to publish an address, in pamphlet form
on the subject This pamphlet we have now re-
ceved. The charter donates to the company
eight sections, or five thousand one hundred and
twenty acres, of land for every mile of road con-
structed; and as soon as the proof is made that
five miles have been completed, the Commissioner
of the General Land Office is authorized to issue
certificates for the same; which the company may
have located and surveyed and patented inlmedi-
ately after, on any public lands in the State
making twenty-five thousand six hundred acres
for every section Of five miles of road The dis
tance from Shreveport to FL Paso (being nearly
thrty-two and half degrees) is estimated at
seven hundred and fifty miles, and the whole
amount of and donated by the State, therefore,
will be three million eight hundred and forty
thousand acres; which Mr.. Ward estimates to be
worth to the company at least from $l5 900 900
to Sl8,0O0,O 900, and far more than this by the time
the road is completed. -Galpeston .Ns,cs.

The COSTA AFFAIR AT SMYRNA.-A commu-
nicatlon, published in the New York Courier and
Enquirer, says that the English papers have made
a mistake in their accounts of the trouble at
Smyrna, by confoundng Commander Duncan N
lngraham, who commands the United States
sloop-of-war st. Louis, with Commodore String
ham, chief of the squadron, who was at the latest
dates at Constantinople, board his flag ship,
the frigate Cumberland. The correction is i'm.
portant, inasmuch as Commodore Stringham haf
been widely censured for honoring the Austrian
envoy, Bruck, with national salute, which
Bruck is the person who was guilty Of the grosses
injustice towards an American consul, some time
back, tearing down his flag, &c.

STEAM CLIPPER SHPs.--A Rhode Island ship
builder, now in New York, proposes to construct a
new kind of ship, in the model of which the hug,
proportions OF the present ocean steamer are pair
cd down to the easy and symmetrical lines of the
clipper; then propeller is to be used which can
be called into operation at the will of the helms
man and dispensed with in like manner; next iron
inas's and yards of tubular construction, capable
Oh extension or contraction like spy-glass; and
lastly the balance rudder. BY this combination,
u expected that voyage can be made from New

The Pacific railroad, the report Mr.. Kcnne-
dy's thinks, will not be accomplished before the
lapse of many years 1t is to be regretted that the
author of it permitted himself to give expression
to such an opinion. He should have said that il
can be done and is bound to be done, and the soon
er commenced the better. 1t is an undertaking
that Louisiana and Texas have a great and vital
interest in, and they should lose no time in look
ing to it, and that closely. While surveying
parties are daily starting to find northern routes
to- San Francisco, why are not others got up to
find southern route to San Diego9 Such route
can be found, that could be built for much less
than any other, and would secure to us the great
end and aim of road across the continent, viz:
the trade of the East Indies. Unless we take
speedy action in the matter, we shall be cut out of
it. by the superior activity and energy of the north
ern people, who will thereby gain not only grea t
advantage over us, but controlling influence and
power that will make us little better than their
dependents Rirer (La.) Republican.

FIRST USE OF GAS AS AN ARTIFICIAL LIGHT
In the year 1892 Mr.. Murdoch made use of gas
in lighting his house and Office at Redruth. in
Cornwall, where he then resided. The mines al
which he worked being distant some miles from
his house, he in the constant practice of fill
ing bladder with coal-gas, in the neck of which
he fixed metallic tube, with small orifice
through which the gas issued this being ignited
served lantern to light his way'for the con
siderable distance he had nightly to traverse.
This mode of illumination being then generally
unknown, it was thought by the common people
that magical art alone could produce such an eff.

RAILWAY FENcEs.-The Cincinnati and Dayton
Railroad is partly fenced on both Sides at a cost
to the company of $4,000 The farmers are in
the practice of taking the fences down for conve-
nience in driving their cattle across, and of lcav-
ing them down. The recent accident on that road
arose from this cause. The company, after hav-
ing done all in their power to prevent accidents are
determined to punish those who, through malice,
perverseness, carelessness, have been the cause
OF accidents, by making them bear the loss which
the company have sustained by injury to cars.

CoUNTERFEITMG BAD BUsNEss-The worst
business to be followed now-a-days-that is, the
poorest paying business-is counterfeting. The

very successful in trapping these "money-makers -
Besides those arrested in this city, have chron-
icled arrests in Rochester, Buffalo, and .Cincin-
natl Two have also been arrested in Canaan
daigua, and materials of all kinds, weighing at
least ton, were brought from the den of the
counterfeiters. 1t appears a little strange that
these operations should be permitted to proceed
to the extent they do before detection. The ac-
emulation of ton of materials and the manu-
facture of thousands-in fact mlons-of dollars
of counterfeit money can only be accounted for
by the occasional ntimation we have of respectable
parties being connected in the transaction We
have never heard of any of these respectable parties
being punished, and are inclined to think full
investigation would prove the manufacturers to
be nothing more than the dupes of those respecta-
BILE parties. Atlas.

To the WING Convention Of the First
Congressional District Of Maryland,

My commission as Representative in Congress
having expired, and frequent applications being
made to know whether desired reelection, it
is only respectful to the inquiries to define pub
licly my position.
Recent usage has limited to two terms the ser
vice of the Representative of this district 1t has
80 many counties, and so many gentlemen in each
county whose friends are anxious to confer on
them the honor, it would be invidious if not un-
grateful in me to seek to monopolize (if could)
an honor and position which so many are more
worthy to enjoy, more able to fill.
The preferments already conferred on me are
as many as i desire, and more than deserve.
They were bestowed without solicitation, and are
relinquished without regret AS unsought testi-
monials of public confidence they are inestimable
they would cease to be valuable if procured or
prolonged by the importantly of myself or my
friends
therefore respectfully decline all competition
for the honor of nomination the Wing candi-
date for this Congressional district.
With cordial Acknowledgements for the marks
of confidence and consideration past, remain
your friend and feow-citizen,

OF the two squaws who were inferred in the Eps-
copal burying ground were in state of decom-
position which rendered their removal inexpedient
