MAGNETIC IRoS.-A correspondent of the
New York Scientific American, writing from
Bloomfield, N, j saws that on a railway near
that town there is an uphill grade, running
northwest of eighty or ninety feet to the mile,
on which each Of the individual rails Is mag.
net, the upper end being South pole, and
the lower end q North pole. He presumes
that on all inclined railway grades the case
l. the same, no matter what may be the d.
there Is a law of magnetism, that all bars of
iron become magnets the moment you raise
them from a horizontal position. This mag
netic law, he thinks, has not been considered
enough on board of vessels, in relation TO
local attraction, and he adds, that il has doubt
less been the cause of their running on shore
sometimes.

POWER OF CAR BRAKEs s.-Brakes cannot
stop a train of cars instantly. If applied too
lightly they lock the wheels" but they can
not prevent the whole from slipping along on
the smooth track. A writer in the Boston
Railway Times has figured out the result of
locking the wheels at various speeds, and
finds that at a speed of 8 miles per hour a
train would slide feet; at 20 miles, 100 feet;
and at speed of go miles per hour Q train
would slide, in ordinary condition of the track,
a distance Of 800 feet, or over one sixth of a
mile, in spite Of all that brakes or even run
ners or drags under the wheels could do TO
prevent it.
This is assuming thatsvery wheel is brsked
or locked, which is never the case in practice
the locomotive, the heaviest mass in the
train, being without brakes, although il the
locomotive was reversed, the effect would not
be much less in diminishing the momentum.
He concludes that, from the very nature of
the case, brakes cannot ever be relied on az
safeguard against accidents. Accidents must
DO avoided mainly by suitable arrangements
10 running tho trains, and brakes are at best
only means Of softening-very rarely Of
averting entirely-the collisions which occur
from defective management.

The GREAT REPUBLIC This monster shin.
the pride and boast Of the American mer-
chaut heet, not only on account of her great
sizs and beauty of model, but also for ner un-
surpassed sailing qualities, has arrived back
nome, after an absence Of nearly two years,
during which time she ha. been employed,
together with large number of other Ameri-
can ships OF all sizes, In the French transport
service, during the war in the Crimea Some
ldea OF her capacity may be gathered from
the fa,t that on one Of her trips from Mar
seilles to kamiesch she carried 497 cavalry
horses, for whose accommodation the entire
length Of the two between decks were par
titloned into stalls, besides over 500 troops,
and the provisions and forage necessary for
the voyage. On her last return trip from Sc
bastopol she brought to Msrseilles over 5000
infantry besides her own crew, and a large
corps OF cooks, servants and walters, required
tor the Commisssry department, and this too
with her hold full of guns Of great size, shells,
baggage, and the necessary water and pro-
visions.
In every port she has visited, she has been
thronged with people Of all classes, whose
wonder and admiration at her enormous sire
and beauty have been expressed.
Yet it would be unfair to contend that to
this ship alone is due such a favorable idea Of
our merchant marine. Other ships such as
the Monarch Of the Sea, Titan, Queen Of Clip
pers, Ocean Herald, Guantlet, White Falcon,
and host Of others, all Of great size, beauty
and speed have been engaged in the same
service, and by their superior efficiency have
supplied immensely the pressing wants Of the
peculiar trade in which they have been en-
gagged. To their officers and crews, the hor-
rors of war, without its more immed late dan
gers, it is true, have bean too familiar, and
long may it be before another occasion arises
to employ these splendid ships in 4 similar
service York Express.
