SINGULAR EFFECT OF ELECTRICITY ON Ne

OF town. recently carried home a small elec-
trical machine for making some experiments
AS soon as be got homo, the negroes as usual,
hocked around him, eager to see what master
had got There was boy among these dar-
kies that had strong disposition to movo
things when they wanted moving, or in other
words to pilfer occasionally.
Now, Jack, says his master. ''look here;
this machine is to make people tell the truth,
it will knock you down"
"why, master" said the boy, "I never
lied or stole anything in my life"
Well, take hold Of this and no sooner
had the lad received a slight shock, than he
fell on his knees and bawled out, "Oh, mas
ter did steal your cigars and little knife,
and have lied ever so many times please for
give me"
The same experiment was tried with like
success on half dozen juveniles At last an
old negro, who had been looking on very at
tentively, stepped in.
Master" said he, "let this niger try.
Dat masheen is well enough to scare DE chill
dren wild, but dis nigger knows better
The machine was then fully charged, and
be received stunning shock He looked srst
at his hand, then at the machine, aud at last,
rolling his eyes, 4" Master" said he, - it ain
best TO know too much Oars many a soul gets
to be damned by knowing too much, an it's

AMERICAN CLOCK BUSINESS NJ ,h,-
ty-one clock manufactures enumerated by ne
in articles on the subject, two years ago. foup
have been destroyed by FIRE, nine have stopped
by failure, and Eve have ceased manufactur-
ing on account Of small profits. There are
still thirteen factories making clocks, but only
SIX OF them running full time and with fui
complement Of hands. These six will produce
sa,oOO clocks this year. The remaining seven
factories will make about 46 900 clocks, SO
'nat the total productions Of clocks this wear
VIII not exceed 1880 The jerome Manu-
Iac.uring Company in 1853 and 1854 produced
eacn 44t 600 clocks. Thus they must have
produced more than an average Of one clock
per minute; The factory Of J c. Brown

100 900 clocks annually, making = total from

factured about l50, 900 last year. IL IL est
mated nearly half a million Of dollars bss
been lost in selling clocks under the est
within the last three years The clocks foy
expectation have amounted TO abeut one mil
lion of dollars annually. The business has
resulted SO dlsastrously to those engaged in IL,
that some time must elapse before capital will
seek this channel as an investment, unless
something like combination can be made 70
sustain the prices. The clock business now
stands IN peculiar position. There has been
no rise IN prices, but there appears every rea-
son TO anticipate one. The amount of low
priced clocks made this year will not supply
the home market, and the exportstiop Of the
article must almost wholly cease for q time at
least 1t Is said that one or two English
agents have been to the clock districts, and
have secured them thoroughly to buy all that
could be finished, but the amounts were small
without prospect Of getting more.-Ne,c Ha-
