DELAY OF TRAINs.-The snow west
has caused much irregularity iii the
trains on the d. & s. e. r. r. for the
past two weeks. Tuesday night the
passenger train did not reach Iowa
Falls, the snow on the track compelling
the conductor to back down to Water
loo. The train west, Wednesday night
narrowly escaped what might have
been serious accident Two engines
were drawing the train aud when a
half mile west Of Ackley, at full speed ,
the forward engine ran off the track,
breaking the coupling and. dumping
overon its side. The train passed
by uninjured. Engineer Larey and
road master Turner, who were on the
engine when it ran off, were both
slightly injured.
A NOVEL CASE.-We learn from the
Dubuque papers, that ID. p. Burr, prin-
cipal of one of the ward schools and
formerly teacher in the High school
at this place, was last week fined ten
dollars for infiicting corporal punish
meht on one of bis pupils. The boy
was in the habit Of being tardy, which
was against the rules of the school,
without an excuse. Coming IN late one
morningh he was questioned by Mr.. Burr
as to the cause of his hardness and re-
piled in an insolent manner, that he
had his own reasons, up6n which Mr..
B. stepped from behind his desk and
cuffed the infractory pupil three or four
times with his hand. The father OF
the boy brought suit and recovered dam
ages rs above stated. An appeal was
taken by defendant to the District
Court. The case is certainly a novel
one. and involves the question as to
whether teachers have the right 10 in
flict corporal punishment.

The East Cigar,

One Of the most eminent physicians
of this city, and deservedly so, attrib-
utes the premature death of three of
the most eminent divines of this coun-
try to the inveterate use of tobacco.
The recent death OF one of the great
financial and political leaders in Paris
has directed public attention to the
subject. In reading the facts let every
man who smokes take notice.
NJ Fould wrote to several people, in
viting them to his estate, and giving
some account of his late hunting ex-
periences. The table was set at six
O'Clock, but the dinner had scarcely be-
gun, when NJ. Fould was seized with
fit of shivering, and complained of sud-
den pains in the arms and hands. At
the entreaty of Madame Fould he left
the room and went to bed, asking to be
left alone, saying that it was but a slight
indisposition, and he wanted to sleep.
At half-past seven Madame Feuld
went up TO the room to see how
he was, and receiving no reply to her
question, thought he was in a deep
sleep, and withdrew. At nine o'clock
she went again, and receiving no an
swer from him, fastened to his bed,
took his hand, and found he was dead.
It's believed that he died Immediately
after he got into bed. The remains ofM.
Fould were inferred in the Protestant
cemetery at Pere La Chaise, where the
deceased had family vault constructed.
Nicotine, the redoubtable poisonous
principle of tobacco, acts as heart
poison, In experimenting on animals,
one eminent Psychologist, Claude Ber-
nard, observed that it paralyzed the
central organ of the circulation, thence
sudden death. A dose insufficient to
kill, nevertheless produces symptoms
analogous to those of angina pectoris.
One Of the most distinguished physi-
clans of our time, NJ Beau, who died
two years since, read memoir at the
Academy ofSeiences, in 1869, in which
he showed by very considerable num-
Der of observations made during his
practice, the influence of ftobacco-smok-
ing, and especially in the form of Gig
ars, in producing angina pector7s. He
remarked that the cigar chiefly has this
dreadful result upon impressionable
persons, who lead sedentary lives, and
whose minds are constantly on the
stretch. Two years later, another
physician, DR. Z. Deeaisne, adducsd
series of upwards of a hundred cases
respecting the pernicious action on the
functions of the heart caused by smok-
ing tobacco. This is now an accepted
point in medical science, and there is
scarcely any practitioner who does not
prohibit smoking, rat least, who fails
to recommend the greatest moderation
in it to such of his patients as are liable
to even the slightest perturberation of
the functions of the heart. Now, M.
Fould, who was a smoker and subject
to palpitations of the heart, evidently
had slight attack of the angina pcctoiS
in the morning, to which he paid little
attention, and then, in the evening, a
violent and mortal attack. In the in
terval a cigar was smoked; who can
say that this was not the last straw
broke, etc. 7---ObseTvr.

IN THE FIRE-LIGHT.

Often in this winter freight,
While the shrill-voiced crickets sing,
Slowly rise the quiet beech-woods,
And the world is glad with Spring.
Embers shine, and shadows 1utter,
But | see the violets grow;
Underfoot the brown leaves lingering,
And the white anemones blow.
And my darling, in her coffin.
Loves me as in days of yore;
Thirty years have fiowered and faded.
Buta dead griefliVes once more.
Wild-birds call, and May-howers beckon,
And my sweetheart, gone to rest,
Sits beneath the swinging larches,
With the anemones in her breast.
Night-winds sigh. and snow is falling;
But with freight, fancies flow
Back 10 how we loved and parted,
In the spring time, years ago.
