A FEARFUL RIsK.-At Echo, on the
Union Pacific railroad the other evening.
three freight trains stood upon the main
track, when word came flashing over the
telegraph from the superintendent: CA
locomotive and tender, with steam up,
and with nobody on board, have broken
from freight train, and started down the
grade" All i! then and there was hur-
rying to and fro! In few seconds came
another message: "She has just passed
Castle Rock station" Never we're three
trains got off upon siding with less de-
lay: Then the workmen piled sleepers
high upon the track lest even that should,
not stop her." and she should do mur-
der further down the road, they tore up
the rails below. Just as this was accom-.
plished she came in sight. She shot
through the sleepers like a bullet tbroupb
pine board, sending them flying in ali
directions, and darkening the air with the,
splinters, but at the broken track she
jumped up and down with vexation, and
finally plunged, angrily, headforemost, ;.
into hillside. She had run twenty-six.
miles in twenty-nine minutes; the best
time yet made upon the road.-Letter IN
Ne~ York Tribune.

seekers, bound for the Park and other
Pupilc resorts, goes on to say -
Fountains of soda spirited cooling
draughts all day, and the owners of said
fountains filled their tills with countless
dimes: The fountain of eternal life was
turned of, and the ministers who were ac-
customed to dole out this potation were
away, careless of the wants of the thirsty.

ment Closed for the Summer" New

whom Tom Hood would call I" bilious
or at least there was not before the shen-
nerds left their focks and went up into
the green pastures of Saratoga, or down
Dy the still waters of Long Branch Sum-
iner heat seems to paralyze piety. The
clerical army becomes demoralized in July
and the great enemy of souls has it all
hiss own way. The captains of the church
militant hang up their swords, many of
the priyates stack arms and flee from the
city. A few through necessity, stay about !;
they rendezvous in little churches on the
east and west side of the town. But the
big churches, where the domiHies invested
IN gorgeous canonicals and surrounded
with sacerdotal pomp are wont to hold
forth, are closed. Very few are bereaved
by this, for the members of these sanctu-
aries generally made dormitories of them !;
and now, instead of taking pious nap in
cushioned pew and under the architraves
OF the temple, they drowsily spend the
morning at home or with their families at
the summer resorts.

Canton, stating that preparations are ma
king there for wholesale emigration to the
United States on the part Of the masses,
who arc but too eager to embrace any op-
portunity to get away from their manda-
rims and the bastinado. One of these
writers says there is one caution to which
the authorities of the United States would
do weii to give their attention-they must
keep the whiskey bottle from their new
subjects. Hitherto this has been done
with the most satisfactory results, and if it
IS not done now, we are warned that we
shall get rather bad bargain, drunken
Chinaman being about as hard case as
