engaged in the highest stories of thc
building with the hose, the alarm Of fire
in this city was given. The flames Of which

and they crossed with but little delay,
but necessarily arrived here neaiy al
hour after the fire had commenced
The fire broke out here at 10 o'clock at
night, in the large frame stable Of the
new Pennsylvania House, owned by Mes
sers. NJ. G. Davis Il Sons The flames
suddenly arose from the centre of the sta
bic, and the ire was probably caused b.
an accident from fireworks. But the
fact that that the stable OF Mr. Johnson,
in the neighborhood, was set on fire du-
ring the afternoon, gave rise to n suspl-

Wawoald call particular attention to
an article on our first page, and also one
on onr second page, in reference to Capt.
MONTGOMERY and his men. Just at this
time and place, our democratic friends
are straining every nerve to make little
capital for themselves, out Of the report
ed doings Of Montgomery. They are
hard up, we know; but we do not intend
that their game shall win in this case, for
the truth must be'known.
Gov. Denver has been in the counties
of Linn and Bourbon, since the late MUIR
der of Eve men, and has attended meet
ngs and addressed the people in company
with Montgomery. There was no differ
encc Of opinion as to their future course.
Gov. Denver induced the resignation of an
obnoxious pro-slavery sheriff of Bourbon
county, and commissioned Free State
Imam in his stead. He also agreed to
commission a Free State County Board
recommended by meeting of the citi-
zens, preparatory to the organization Of
the county under the late law Thus i.
is seen that Gov. Denver, after visiting
the scene of the outrages (?) committed
by Montgomery, is satisfied that he was
acting, rs it were, on the defensive, dri-
wing off only those who were plundering
and numbering the Free State men.

A nIachina f;or Making Ics..

A machine for making from 5000 To-
10000 lbs. Of ice per day has recently
been made in London for the inventor,
Mr. Harrison, 81 0eelong, Colony Of Vic
toria, Australia ssThe refrigeration is
produced BY the evaporation Of ether in
vacuum; aud the peculiarity Of the in
,vention consists ii thu arrangements for
evaporating the ether At low tempera-
ture, and condensing it at higher, pre-
cisely the reverse Ct ordinary evaporating
processes. The ether is contained in air..
tight vessels, relieved from the pressure
Of the atmosphere. The cylinder in the
center of the apparstus Is fitted with
valves, so that each stroke Of the piston
withdraws quantity of ether vapor from
the left-iand hessel, and forces il iDto =
condensing vessel on. the right hand
Where the vapor is raised an intense cold
is produced; where it is condensed, a
| corresponding degree of heat is evolved.
| The ether, after resuming the liquid state,
returns by self-regulating valve to the
cooperating vessel, and the process thus
continues uninterruptedly, without re-
| curing any attention, and without the
slightest waste Of material
The evaporating vessel is simply tn.
bular boiler. The cold produced is util-
| lied by means of stream of salt water,
which does not itself freeze at the tenn
perature required for ice-mak;ng, but
carries the cold to the vessels containing
the fresh water Intended for conversion
into ice. This part Of the apparatus
consists of u trough twenty feet in length
fitted with oil freezing moulds, over the
outside surfaces Of which the cold salt
water circulates in continued stream. -
After having thus parted with its cool.
ing power, it is returned to the refrigera.
ting vessel, and again passed through the
tubes OF she boiler. There IL thus u con.
tinucd aud regular circulation Of this flu
id, similar to that Of the ether, the whole
bearing a remote resemblance to the
double circulation of the blood. THE
expense of the process is simply that Of
the motive power. The whole expense
of making ice Ia Loudon, including in
terest on capital, etc, will be cousidera.

The 'Hipsou Union school.

We had the pleasure of attending q
portion of the examinations in the In
ion Schools last week. We could not
help wishing that more Of our citizens
were present The various classes ac-
Quilted themselves In mastery manner,
showing that the teachers had gone to
the foundation of the various studies,
and built thereon structure that could
not be shaken. The pupils were able to
give the why's, and the whereforcs, with
out hesitation. The progress made du-
ring the past year is remarkable, aud coah
easily be seen.
That We have had one Of the best,
il not the very best, Of schools in the
State, cannot be denied. Oar teachers
have oil been indefatieabIe in their e1er-
tions to improve the school, and they
may we'll be proud of their success. The
teachers have done their duty, but We
cannot say that the parents have all done
their duty in visiting the school, as they
should have done, to encourage both
teachers and scholars In their arluous Ia
bors. We know that there is general
feeling on the part of parents, that when
they have hired teachers and built school
houses they Lave done their whole duty
This is a great error They should show
BIZ their presence that they have deep
and constant interest in the school where
their children are being educated. TO
show that our teachers have not been
idle, or our scholars few, we give the
whole attendance, with the daily average,
during the past year:
The number Of scholars enrolled in the
High School was LOG; daily average 5li.
In the Grammar School-whole number,
80; daily average, 81. In the Secon-
dairy School-whole number, Of; daily
average, 53i. In the Primary School
whole number, 1879 daily average. CIT
TLs ~hviu ,.anbs. who have attended
school is AL; the daily average 205.-
The whole amount received and now due
from non residents for tuition, for the
year, is $3.50.
On Friday afternoon the closing exer-
cises Of the school took place at the VI
+. Church, where were large number
of our citizens. The exercises were
The reading Of the reports of the attend
ance and progress Of the various pupils,
and Of each school; declarations and es-
says, by members of the different depart
ments, and the bestowing of certificates
of promotion upon such as had shown
themselves entitled thereto Everything
passed off pleasantly; aud thus was the
first year of the Upton Union School
closed. May the future Journalist be
able to chronicle many such.

Position Of Judge Douxia :.

The Chur'tSt2R IsrcRry having asked
where Douglas win b. found, In case
Kansas, having rejected the LecQmpton
Constitution, shall . knock ut the doors
Of Congress, at It's next session, for ad-
mission into the Union. With an Anti
Slavery Constitution the Stqses answers
as follows:
" We can inform the Mercury. Judge
Douglas will be found voting against an Y
Constitution presented by the people OF
Kansas Until the Territory shall LaTe the
ratio Of population nov required in ali
the States to elect Aenber Of Congress,
viz: ninety-threa thousand"
But for tho intimate relations under
stood to exist between Judge Douglas
and thc States, we should doubt the au-
tbority Of that paper thus to comait him.
Il Judge Douglas really occupies the po-
sition igaea him, on this question, we
cannot, for TIE life Of rs. understand why
h. opposed the English compromise.
As We view the matter, this proposition
Constitutes about the only material point
Of difference between the Montgo nlery
bill and the English substitute.

LecouptOo Constitution should be sub
raItted to a cote Of the people Of Kansas.

/ For our part, the only serious objection
W. could ever see to tie English substi-
tute is the odious distinction it makes
between tie terms on which 4 slave State
aud free State may be admitted into the
Union. This objection, to our mind. is
IN insuperable and damniug one. The
| proposition that Territory may come
into the Union a. State with ii popula-
ton Of thirty thousand, if she will adopt
Slavery, but must stay out till she has q
population u ninety three thousand, ii
she adopts Freedam, is 50 utterly degra-

Cedar County, for member of the Board
of E3u6ation; alse, s. III. Lorah, for
Treasurer, and j. Nj Reed, for Register

them - Templin; S. J. Crew, Of Ce-
dar; s s. Lorer, and J. NJ, Reid. 1t

Tire Democrats PIatf6r,n.

We all tie attention Of the Demoera
to the following from the Dubuque Err
press and NzraH:
The Davenport Democrat has placed at
the head of its columns a bogus platform
which ii calls "platforln Of the National
Democracy of tho State Of Iowa in Conyen-
ton assembled at Iowa City. June "A.
1883" The Democrct. has added to The
true platform the resolutions of the Le-
compton boilers, praisinc the administra-
ton and Senator Jones, and conveys the
idea that the State Convention adopted
them, whereas II did not. This piece Of
faisehooa aud auplicity on the part Of the
Democrat is only calculated to do evil.
The Democrat does not see many ways
particularly about doing good to its party
It is an Administration organ, and its
prominent object is to fight IN its own pc
culiar way the Administration battle. -
Its "peculiar way At this time, is to de-
ceive the public with the idea that the
Democratic State Convention rassed res
oiutions endorsing The Administration and
Senator Jones. when ii refused to do any
such thing. This was signal rebuke to
"the orgnns' here. aud to all in Iowa who
uphold the Administration. How low
has the Buchanan Administration sunk;
when a Democratic State Convention in
this State refuses the usual endorsement
Of its policy and ordinary compliments 10
the President himself, But what misera-
bic disappointments the Democyat exhib-
its, when II publishes this bogus platform
above alluded to, in the hope Of making
somebody believe that its political posi-
tion was not publicly and contemptuously
spnrned by State Convention of its own
party -Darcaport Ga=.
