REMARKABLE AccIDENT--The Blooming
ton Qll) Flag rectes the following singular
circumstance:
On Wednesday of last week very re-
markable accident occurred on the farm Of
Mr.. William G. Warlow, Of that county
While Mr.. John Baker was narrowing in
a field, his two horses took fright and ran
off; the harrow soon got thrown upon its
back, with the teeth up, and the horses be-
came entangled in the harness in such a
manner as to cause them both to fall on the
top of the harrow, the teeth of which PEN
etrated to their vitals and killed almos: in
stantly. We doubt very much whether
there is another similar circumstance on REQ
ord.

NUMBER "A.
Comets.

CoWoto.
In ancient times, the visits Of ccmsts WosU
supposed to portend pestilsncs end VA; aud
ia the reign Of Justiuiau, when two immsuse
"blasing stars" appeared, the dirsfsl sxpse.
tstions were abundantly fulfilled, not howov-
er that those calamities which dssolated
large portions of the Eastern Roman IN.
pire, had any connection with the comets.
The flrst alarmed mankind in the month Of
September, A. D. 5sl, and was seen twvaty
days in the western quarter Of the heavens,
shooting its rays to the north. The sscoad
appeared A. D. 5Ss, and increased to -
large a size, that the head was in the saat,
and the tail reached the west. It WAS visi !.
ble for forty days, the sun at the time eK-
hibiting unusual paleness. varro records 4
tradition, that in the times of Oxyges, the
father Of Grecian antiquity, the planet Venus
changed her color, size figure, aud course, =
prodigy without example, either in the past
or succeeding ages. This refers to 1897
years before Christ. Tremendous comets
appeared in the west two generations prior
to the reign of Cyrus; but one Of the most
splendid comets was seen forty years before
the birth Of Christ. After the death Of
Julius Cesar, "long haired star" was con-
spicuous to Rome and to the nations, during
the games that were exhibited by young
Octavan, in honor Of Venus and bis uncle
Julius Caesar; and the vulgar believed that it
conveyed the divine soul Of the latter to hea.
ven. The superstition was universally cur
rent among the Gncients, that q comet,
from its horrid hair shakes pestilencs and
war;" But modern philosophy and research
have successfully dispelled such vain and
idle apprehension', in all civilized nations.
At the birth Of the great Mithridstes, King
Of Pontus, two large comets appeared,
whose splendor is fabulously said to have
equaled that of the sun. They were seen
for seventy two days together, and occupied
forty five degrees or the fourth part Of the
visible heavens Seneca, the Roman philos-
opher, who lived in the first century Of tho
Christian era, wrote-"The time will como
when the nature Of comets and their mag.
ntude, will be demonstrated, and the course
they take, so different from those of tho
panets and prosterity will wonder that
the proceeding ages should be ignorant in
matters 80 plain and easy to be known"
Arago thought that no less than seven
thousand comets revolved in our system.
Comets sometimes pass unobserved by the
inhabitants Of the earth, in consequence Of
the part Of the heavens in which they move,
being then under daylight. During total
eclipse of the sun, sixty years before Christ,
large comet, not previously seen, became
visible near the body Of the obscured lumin-
ary. Halley's comet, A. D. 1850, covered
sixth part of the visible heavens, and was
likened to turkish scymiter. That observ.
ed by Newton, A. d. 1880, had tail 1885,.
100000 Of miles iu length. A comet A. D.
l744 had six tails, spread out Ike a fan,
across q large space cf the sky.

PRINTING IN CHINA-According to the
best authority, the art Of fprinting WAS known
in China upwards Of 900 years ago. In the
time of Confucius, B. G. 600, books were
formed Of slips Of bamboo; and about $50
years after Christ, paper was first made; A.
D. 745 books were bound into leaves; A. D.
600, printing was in general use The pro-
cess of printing is simple. The materi-
ais consists of a graver, blocks Of wood, and
brush. which the printers carry with them
from place to place. Without wheel, OF
wedge, or screw, printer will throw of
more than $500 impressions in one day.
The paper (hin) can be bought for one-fourth
the price in China that it can in any other
country. The work Of Confacius. six vol
umes 400 leaves octave can be bought for
ninepence. For an historical novel, twenty
volumes. 1900 leaves, half. f.a-crown is the
price among the Chinese.

The Liberty Bell.
BE WILLIAM ROSS WALLACE.

Bf WILLIAM kOSS WAl.lACE.
A sound like a sound Of thunder rolled,
And the heart of nation stirred
For the Bell of Freedom, at midnight tolled,
Through mighty land was heard.
And the chime still rang
From its iron tongue,
Steadily waving to and fro;
And to some it came,
Like breath of flame
And to some q sound of woe
Above the dark mountain above the blue wave,
1t was heard by the fettered, and heard by the
brave
1t was heard in the cottage and heard in the hall,
And its chime gave glorious summons to all.
The sabre was sharpened-the time rusted blade
Of the Bond started out in the pioneers glide,
Like herald of wrath and the host was arrayed!
Along the dark mountain, along the blue wave,
Swept the ranks of the Bond-swept the ranks Of
the Brave;
And shout as if waters went up to the dome,
When sar-blazng banner unfurled,
Like the wing of some seraph flashed out from
his home,
Uttered freedom and hope to the world.
Der the hilltop and tide its magnificent fold,
With terrible glitter Of azure and gold,
In the storm and the sunshine, and darkness un-
rolled.
1t blazed in the valley, it blazed on the, mast
1t leaped with its eagle abroad on the blast;
And the eyes of whole nations were turned to its
light:
And the heart of the multitude soon
Was swayed by its stars as they shone through the
night,
Like an ocean when swayed by the moon.
Again through the midnight that Bell thunders
out,
And banners and torches are hurried about:
A shout as of waters! long-uttered cry
How it leaps, how it leaps from the earth to the
sky!
From the sky to the earth, from the earth to the
Hear a chorus reechoed, THE PEOPLE ARE FREE!
The old Bell is still seen by the Patriots eye,
And he blessed it forever, when journeying by:
Long years have passed DER it, and yet every soul
Will thrill in the night to its wonderful roll
For it speaks in its belfry, when kissed by the
blast,
Like glory -breathed tone from the mystical Past
Long years shall roll oer it, and yet every chime
Shall increasingly tell of an era sublime,
More splendid more dear than the rest of all time.
O, yes! if the fame on our stars should pale,
Let its voice but be heard and the Freemen
shall start
To rekindle the fire, while he sees on the gale,
All the Stars and the Stripes of the Flag OF his
heart

II We wish the progress of this Stase and
Nation to be onward and upward, We have
but to hold unimpaired the principles Of the
precious legacy transmitted to Us BY our
fathers. The pstrimony il ours, rich and
unineumbered. Shall We, by supineness, By
folly, or by rash experiment, destroy, or
even cndanger that which cost our fathers
so much? No. We are careful to preserve
individual property which is perishabie, and
even when injured or destroyed can be re-
paired in time; but the violation Of the Con-
ssitusion, the loss Of national liberty or hon
or, would inlet An evil on the whole human
race, not to be healed in the compass of =
thousand generations. II is clearly our duty
then, vigilently to guard the constitution; it
is our political estate-she interest is ours,
the capital belongs to posserity; it is sacred
no ruthless hand must touch it: we are its
trustees, from Us it must be handed, unim-
paired, to another generation. And what
time so fitting, Is the anniversary Of its birth
to renew our obligations, and impress upon
our minds, the importance Of the trust de-
volv,ng upon uss Therefore, to-day let US
renew our vows, and let it be imprinted
upon our hearts, more indelibly, if possible,
let it be embodied more deeply in ali our
actions, that our holy cause must never,
nerer be gwen up, nor any Of its principles
abrosated.
