A Boy ALMOST KILLS HIMSELF BY EATING
CAMPHoR.-A boy, about fourteen years of age,
named William Johns, whose parents reside,
we believe, on Carr street, yesterday, being
sent upon an errand by his employers, Ross,
Pettbone & Co., and feeling pain in the
stomach, went into drugstore and purchased
a quantity of gum oamphor, all of which he
ate. Upon reaching their office, on the corner
of Western row and Richmond street, he was
seized with a fit, and would, in all probability,
have died but for the prompt administration of
an emetio, which soon relieved him from his
precarious condition. Late last evening, al
though quite ILL., he was in fair way to re-
cover

HEAVY VS.. LIGHr LOCOMOTIVES.


"The endeavora to reduce the weight of the
locomotive and at tho same time not to impair its
efficiency have excited great deal of interest
among railroad men. All must perceive the i'm
portance of such an effort; as il is now, tho COM
panies stand, as it were, between two fires tDith
tho heavy engine they are destroying tho track
and bridges at an enormously rapid rate l0lthOut
this heavy engine they are unable to do the Work
Of the road, hence the Importance Of some ar
Iangement that shall insure the necessary amount
of steam power and traction, and at the same
time reduce the weight.
The great disparity that exists between tho
weight on the driving wheels OF tho engine and
the track wheels of tho train, shows that the des-
ruction of tine rails and cross,ties is due to the
engine rather than the cars
" 1t has been carefully computed that at least
$26, 600 coo per Annur is the depreciation in the
superstruoture of the railroads Of the United
States-mostly caused by the enormous weight of
the locomotives in. USE"
The above from tho American Railway Review,
states what has ever been great drawback to tho
economical operation Of railroad But this
difficulty is said to be overcome by pRtont re-,
Gently issued for the magnedzing of the driving
wheels of locomotives, thereby causing seventy
five per cent additional adhesion to the iron track
thus enabling light engine Of seventeen tons to d,
the work Of a heavy engine OF thirty tons. At !
trial lately made upon the Fitchburg Road nea
Boston, the following results we're arrived at;
l. The track and the wheels we're creased, an,
the Locomotive chained to a post steam powe
was then applied, i0thom this attachment, whe
il required 8 lbs, steam to the inch, TO slip th
driving wheels. Wan the attachment, itrequi
red SO lbs steam to slip the wheels.
| II. On a clean rail It required so lbs. atoar
per inch, to slip tho wheels without magnetism
! With magnetism and the same kind Of rail, s
| lbs. steam.
| III. The power Of the engin 20 drdig lOade
cars, was proved to be in proportion to its noreai
ed adhesion to tae track Chat is TO say, an un
magnetised engine drawing but forty loaded car
! will, when magnetzed, draw seventy loaded cars
No more power is necessary to propel the opgin
with this attachment than without it, aud the i'm
provement can bs attached to any locomotive wit
little expense.
