trains run at the rate of over thirty miles an

the "trip between Albany and Butlu4o is made in
less than ten hours. the trains stopping twelve

relies FOR TRAyELLKns.-Thc following rults,
all Of which, We believe, are founded on legal
decisions. are of sufficient importance to tray-
vllcrs TO be committed TO memory:
It has been largely decided that applicants fur
tickets on railsuad> can BE- elected from the cars
if they do not ot3rr the exact amount of tbcir
iarc. Conductors are not bound to make
change.
All railroad tickets are good until used. and
conditions " good for this day only" Or ether
wise limiting the time ofgeuuincncss. are of:no
account.
Passengers who lose their tickets can be cjec-
ted from the cars unless they purchase second
one.
Passengers are bound to observe decorum IN
the cars. and are obliged to comply with ali
reasonable demands to show tickets. Standing
nI",n the platform, Or otherwise violating rule
"t the company, renders a person liable to be

Vut down in childhood, with the rosy beams Of
n' : early morning playing on his brow, he laid
1r ! down and slept among the first flowers of the
SpAns. In the midst Of joy and innocence,
D'''n found him, and the sportiye boy, who but a
moment before was full of life and glee, was
'u 's'ns home senseless- dying. He was playing
ha his little brother Simeon, in the second story
7 ~as Court House. in Benton, and having drawn
sposure on the wai, stepped back to look at it,
~ saa leli through hole which had been burnt in

'Sasa from his lips, before he reached the dregs,

lectures on PHRENoLoaY and PnYstoLocY-includ-
ing several coateroi topics, such as Health, Self
Improvement, Signs Of Character, Matrimony, &C.
Efor enumeration Of which we would direct special
attention to the announcement in another coumn)
tonight (Saturday), at Odd Fellows Hall, to
which there is no charge of admission. These
lectures will no doubt bring out large audiences
from the most intelligent portion of the commu
nifty the more SO as Prof. Fowler has an estab
lished reputation, his name in connection with the
science whose claims he advocates having been
prominently before the public nearly thirty years,
while during this period he has been lecturing
in all portions of the country, and but one opin-
ion is every where expressed of the value and i'm
pOrtance of his addresses They are eminently
Facical in their bearing, enforcing lessons of
everyday life, revealing the hidden philosophy Of
the same, and pointing out fundamental errors
often committed in the treatment Of the mind and
body with such directions for the future, as, if
properly observed, must enure to the physical and
mental well being Of all. The Professor also
aOOunds in apt and racy anecdote, which, together
With aspeces of wit and humor that often obtains,
renders his lectures the source Of a good deal of
amusement as well as instruction, while the exam
nations of the heads Of prominent citizens select
ed BY the audience, at the close of each lecture,
must prove point of much interest. We must
not forget to add, that during his stay Prof Fow-
