SOMETHING NEW IN RAILROADS.&C.
A correspondent of the Times, writing
from Paris. tells Us what follows of an
invention of the French in regard to rail
reading
One of the most interesting sights and
one that no America ever thinks of visit
ing as he probably never heard of it, is
the Railroad from the Barrier d'lnfer to
SceauX. 1t is but seven miles long. and
was built as an experiment upon new
system of wheels. The engine, tender.
and hindermost car of the train are fur
nished with oblique wheels under the or
binary upright ones. Where the track
is straight. these do not touch the rails;
but at the curves, they come into play,
rafting along the inner edge of the rails
and preventing the train from running
off the track. The road was therefore
made purposely tortuour. and the most
sudden and seemingly dangerous bends
were introduced at frequent intervals.
The two stations are circular. and the
train as it receives it passenger is doub-
led into a ring of 80 feet radiou. The
smallest curve on the road is G8 feet ra-
uluS anu chCI lIIS tram SoCS dI luIl > pecA.
The corners Of the cars are cut off so that
the vehicles in following the curves, do
not infringe upon each other. SceanX
is upon an eminencc, which the road as
cends spirally, with something line It
mile of track-it is only going, in adj
vance, hundred feet. The invention
which, by the way is ten years old has
proved practically very successful; but it
has never been applied to any extent. As
this is the season of European tour, |
have thought that it might be well to
mention this item, unnoticed, | believe in
the guidcbooks. Americans will be wise,
in lead-pencilling in the memoranda,
See the SceauI Railroad" 1t is quite
as interesting as Pere Ia Chaise.

Good times with farmers is always fol-
lowed by the erection of any quantity of
Barns, Sheds, out-houSeS, fences and if
they continue prosperous, large, commo-
dious, and tasty dwellings always spring
up in the place ofthe og-houscs, shantys,
&C., with which the pioneer commences.
And as the farmers, and others, in this
locality, have been highly favored, and as
the prospect of a continuance ofthe good
times is first-rate, we call attention to
the advertisement of Durkee, Truesdell,
& Co., of Lumber, found in our paper to-
day. We have noticed that they keep
piling up, ship-load, after ship-load, of
the choicest kinds, brought from the Pin
cries, preparatory to the demand which
is sure to lie made for it.-D.

Spiritualism--A Manifestation"

One who is an implicit believer, and as
sumes to be a practical demonstration IN
the new philosophy, has given an account
of recent event in this village, the sub
stance of which is as follows:
A girl who resides on Lock street, in
this village. who is a reported medium"
in going from main street to her home,
passed up Church. intending to cross
over to Lock by the way of Caledonia
street. When she had crossed Caledo-
MIA street on Church street, she was ar
rested by some irresistible impulsc;' it
was, as she describes it, AS if some one
had taken holdof her arm"
Following the impulse, or lead, she
left the companion of her walk and
ha tened to the railroad crossing on church
street pursued the railroad track to the
deep cut west of the transit. when she
was compelled to 60 to something lying
on the track ofthe railroad" She heard
the whistle of the cars around the turn
and would GLADLY have fed from the
track. but was hurried upon her spiritual
errand TO the object other aversion from
her intended rout-whlch proved to be a
small child asleep. lying across one Of the
rails" She had only time to catch up
the child and jump in to the ditch, as the
cars passed.
The evidence corroborating the girls
statement is that of several witnesses.
who saw her in her hurried walk i'll an
unusual direction.
HENRY WARD BEEcHER thus refers in
TIE independent to the Nc,o York 1ri-
bu3ae'S suggestion that he be sent to Con-
gresS:
'EQUIvoCAL Honor DECLINED.-Thc
Tribune, last Saturday, in reply to pri-
vatc letter, asking its advice on the mat
ter recommends that we be nominated

that shall lie done. that we 90.
1t may not be modest for us to decline
before we are really asked. But such
efforts will certainly be loves labor lost.
If the people wish us to be the President
of the United States. we should be dis
posed to accept that. And we fancy that
there will be new times in Washington
City after our inaugural shall have been
pronounced.
Had the proposal to go to Congress
proceeded from the American Board of
Missions, there would have been grave
reasons for considering it. We doubt
whether they have a harder field in all
iIeathendom nor yet field where the
Gospel is more needed.
But, for mere political reasons, to back

e \ friend who lately visited St.
Paul, Minnesota, seeking location, says
the immigration to that region is tremen-
dous, and that property is held at almost
fabulous prices, $1,000 per acre being dc
manded for land in the vicinity of St
Paul Our friend concluded that it was
no place for him, and returned to this

here with what money he had.

Oar Treaty with Japan.

RumOr and the newspapers have mSled
the public a little i'll regard to the nego-
tiations of Commodore Perry with Japan.
They authorized the impression that we
were to enjoy a direct and unrestricted
commerce with the people OF that empire
at two Of the principal ports. Instead OF
that appears by the terms Of the treaty,
which we publish entire, III this sheet,
that all our commerce is to be conducted
through government agents appointed by
the Emperor for the purpose, who, we
presume. will act somewhat in the capac-
ity Of brokers. and who will be the me-
dunn Of communication between the ira
dcrs of the two countries. a commerce
with Japan, even upon such conditions,
is doubtless very valuable, but will be
very far from producing such marvellous
results as were promised by the heralds
of this treaty.
There is another restriction upon our
intercourse with the island. which was
rot anticipated and which will prevent
the people of either natl n from acquir-
ing that intimate knowledge of the others
institutions and habits which would be at
once a cause an a consequence otan eN-
tended commerce that Is the provision
hat Americans shall not go more than
seven Japanese miles INTO the interior.
Whist that distance IS precisely, does not
appear, but we presume the object is to
keep our people from becoming acquain-
ted with the interior conli9uration and
resources of the country.
The treaty has been confirmed by the
Senate. and will, therefore, be ratified
probably within the next six months.
The port OF Simoda was opened on the
81 ot March last; the port Of llallodade
will he opened one japanese year from
that datc.-N. \. ErcniRg Post.

Il Several thousand dollars were
appropriated by the last Legislature to
purchase books for the Library. Mr..
Kruer. the Librarian, was entrusted with
the money to purchase the 'miscellane-
Gus works" and Fl. I. Sanders, the law
books. OF this latter appointment and
the way the duties have been fulfilled,
the Madison Journal says:
1t will be remembered that the prin-
cipal portion Of the State Admins tration
and a large number OF its friends made a
pilgrimage to Washington last spring.
for purposes. if report be true not the
most patriotic and commendable. Mr..
SANDERS was taken along. He was APP
pointed to purchase the law books. This
would afford preteXt for drawing on the
treasury for a sum sufficiently large to
pay his ordinary expenses handsomely,
an | leave something of surplus for his
proportion of the cigars and liquor. lie
accordingly went on to Washington with
the balance. and during his absence made
the purchase of books. We understand
that quite number Of those purchased
are duplicates of copies already in the Ii
brary, notwithstanding the agent had a
full catalogue Of all the books in the Ii
6rary with him. Some thirty volumes
in all were of this character. Thus not
only was the needless expense in appoint
ing an especial agent to purchase the
books incurred but he failed to discharge
his duty properly, and the money Of the
people was wasted to no purpose except
perhaps to furnish Monks Hall with an
additional lobby member at Washington,

Z The editor of the Kcnosha De
m0crdt processes to be candid, truth
loving, and truth-seeking man. yet he
makes very labored efforts in his last pa
per to create prcjudices against "Aboli-
tionists," without condcsccnding to give
Il reason of any kind in the premises.
When he speaks of Abolitionists we sup
pose him to alludc to that class of men
who, supposing slavery to be an evil, have
sought to shape their political action so
as to restrict the growth and spread OF
that evil, and it would naturally be sup
posed that if this editor had himselfa par
ticle Of honesty in the professions he
makes of hatred to slavery, their labors
might at least secure them immunity from
such attacks. This party have never i'll
their labors transcribed the strict limits
the constitution; on the contrary they
have sought only results universally ac-
knowlcdgcd to be beneficial in a strictly
legal and constitutional manner, yet this
editor seems to think no term ofreproach
too good for them.
Perhaps howcyerwc ought not to com
plain, for it is about all the capital the
lIunkers have left. Reason, common
sense, christianity.al condemn them, and
they have nothing left but to excite the
bascr passions-to kindlc the slumbering
prejudices of the people. They have fol
years been laboring to increase and
spread and strengthen the growth of sla-
very over the whole land. They have
list abolished Freedom in domain large
enough for nation, and it is most natu-
raj that they should seek to excite preju-
diceS against abolitionists."
The whole truth of this matter is, the
country is now fairly divided into two
classes of Abolitionsts-one class seeking
to abolish Freedom and the other Slave
~. If the editor of the Democrat choo.

and TO point the finger of scorn at the
latter, let him, but we apprehend there
are few even of his readers. who can be
made .'AbolitiouiSts" of Freedom, by the
bugbear cry he raises.

Extent Of the Decision.

The effect of the Decision of the Su-
prcme Court Of the State, that the Fugi-
tive Act Of 1850 is unconstitutional. is to
render void all proceedings under that
Act, For an act, whether of Congress or
Of this Statc, if pronounced unconstitu-
tional by the highest judicial tribunal Of
the State, can have no binding force or
effect, within the limits of the State. And
all attempts to enforce such an unconsti-
tutional law, is an insult to, and an at
tempted subycrson of. the Sovereignty
Of the State.-Ercc Dem.

Treatment Of Cholera.

From the New York Tribune.
SIR: 1t appears to me a very important
matter that the best mode of treating
Cholera should he as widely known as
possible and am glad that you have pub
lishcd tic article on the subject contain
ed in the issue OF Tuesday, July 1. |
wish to suggest mode of treatment
which it appears TO me will more effect
uallv check the disease and meet the in
dications of the symptoms than any |
have ever seen recommended. rs soon
As any symptoms appear. the sooner the
better, place the aticat IN full warm
bath 0t9S deg, which must be accompa-
MED with much rubbing of the limbs and
body. At the same time large injections
of cold water should be used and much
cold water drank and peices of ice swal-
lowed. As soon as the symptoms abatc
envelope the person in a damp sheet GOV
cred with blankets for half an hour, and
then follow with a tcpid bath of some
kind. This treatment has the advantage
Of simplicity. 50 that it can be applied by
every person and on the most urgent ."
casion, and when physician cannot be
present; and we think it will be found
successful in all eases when rcsortcd to
in time. If anything more powerful IS
needed to restore the circulation to the
surface, make a strong application Of the
Galyanic battery by passing the current
from the origin along the ramiication OF
the nerves. This must be done whilst
the patient is in the warm bath. II the
liver is torpid and inactive, the arplica-
ton of electricity will arouse it in more
eilrctual manner than the proto chloride
of mercury. which your correspondent OF

Is EARNEsT.-The last Elkhorn Re
porter (democratic) in an article upon
the Nebraska business, uses the follow
Ing language:
There is no use in talking that the
question shall not be attest. No power
on earth, with the feeling that exists, can
help it. There are six out of every sev-
en-, even among democrats, who will not
under any circumstances, vote for Ne
braakaite for office. And it need not be
told that the party have got much to
lose, and still retain power. The party
in Wisconsin, in particular, cannot live
with this load upon them, and we
should not be out Of the way if We
should say, they ought not to live ifthcy
take the load. Let it sink its bearer,
and let obscurity cover the names Of
those who give their votes to aid the
cause of iniquity. While the whole
world is advancing it is grcyious to seq
the American Congress quickening
speed in a retrograde direction-going
back and bringing darkness upon the
country, exposing it to shame and con.
tempt among the nations of the earth.'
For very shame they should not have
done this thing.
