Grants Railroad.

Who but Il parcel of Yankees would
ever have thought of building a railroad
along the battle line of the army, with
one Of the termin the outer cIain Of
Notifications These Yankees who
have settled around Richmond have
done this thing. The railroad goes over
the ground with q most sublimeindiffer-
enee to its ups and downs. If you are
seated i'm one of the last cars Of IA long
train, half the time the locomotive
drawing you is out of sight over hill !;
but the best of all is the covered way,
where the road runs through the field
near Hancock, under the fire of the reb-
ell batteries of Whitworth guns on Gem
etery Hill. The rebels used to amuse
themselves by shejling the trains. They
never did any damage, bat it was judged
beat to make sure against mishaps, and
so breastwork for the railroad way
was thrown up across the entire field.
Down into the cut goes the train, and
whirls safely under the friendly cover of
earth to beyond the point of danger.
With all its goings up and comings down,
with all the instability of its roadway,
there has never been any accident on
the road, no train ever collided, none
got off the track. The railroad is great
thing. -Scientfc american.

A BRIEF SERMON.

a correspondent of an Eastern paper
says:
IF anything aside from the willfuI
stupidity Of the Administration has pro-
!onged the war, it has been the contin-
ued and embittered editorials Of the Re
publican press, not one of which has
ever suggested the golden rule or
Christ's memorable words And on
earth PEACE, goodwill toward men. ,"
If this writer has not read the Hepub-
lean newspapers more diligently than
the bible, lie is not qualified to express
an opinion as TO the spirit of their edit
orials. The memorable words" quoted
were not utteredby Christ, as the writer
of the above will see by referring to
Luke 2-l3, IA. 1.-THE will then turn to
Matthew l0-34, he will find that Christ
said Think not that I am come TO
send peace on earth; come not to send
peace but a sword :" the obvious moan.
ing of which is, that the application If
his preeepts and principles would be
opposed by the powers of darkness and
of evil, and the struggle for ascendeucv
between right and wrong, Justice and
oppression, would lead to bloodshed and
war. Christ's mission was one OF ne.ca
and good will to men, but not to the
powers Of evil, which we are called upon
to resist even with the sword.
And that is just what we are doing in
this holy war, begun by those who new
er recognized the golden rule, and con-
tinued for the establishment Of an en-
pire upon the basis of human slavery.

for the overthrow of tho GnVnrnmant in

How SUGAR Is MADE WHITE.-The
way in which sugar is made perfectly
white, it is said, was found out in Il Gu
rlous way. a hen, that had gone
through clay mud-puddle, went with
her muddy feet into IL sugar house. She
left her tracks on pile OF sugar. 1t
was observed by some one that WHEREBY
er her tracks were the sugar was whit
ened. This led to some experiments,
The result was that wet clay came to be
used i'll refining sugar. It is used in
this way: The sugar is put into earthen
Jars, shaped as You see sugar loaves are
The large ends are upward. The smaller
ends have q hole in them. The jar is
filled with sugar, the clay put over the
top and kept wet. The moisture goes
down through the sugar and drops
from the hole in the email end of the
jar. This makes the sugar perfectly
white.

him, and thrusting ticket in his face,
said " Here is an old Jackson Democrat
who always votes q straight ticket"
The old man opened the ballot and read
one or two names, when he flung it from

with emotion, exclaimed "a despise
