TINS EFFECT OF RAILROADS On II
WRArHER.-The opinion seems TO be
gaining strength that the Pacific Rail-
road is working a great change in the
climate Of the Plains. Instead Of con
t~inuous droughts, all along tho railroad
rain now falls IN refreshing abundance.
This result has been remarked upon in
other sections of the West. In central
Ohio, for instance, it 10 said the climate
has been completely revolutionized siuce
iron rails have formed q network all
over that region. lnstead CT the de-
~structive drougSts formerly suffered
there, for some four or Gce years there
ha, beer rain in sbundance-eyen more
than enough TO satisfy all the wants OF
farmers. This change is thought to be
the result of an equilibrium produced
in the electrical currents, which had
brought about n more uniform dispense
ton of the rain. 1t is q fact within the
observation of all who remember ante
railroad times, that we have now few
or no such thunder-storms rs We for
merly had in New England. The iron
rails which touch aud cross each other
in every direction aerve. as conductors
and equalizsrs Of the electric currents,
and so prevent the terrible explosions
which used to tSrrify III in former
years. The telegrsphie wires which
accompany the iron rails everywhets
also act an important part in diffusing
electricity equally through the atmos-
phere, thus preventing the occurrence
Of soyer: thunder storms.

aRFELEY's sENTI-
MENTS ON FARMING AND
wOMAN'S RIGHTS.

-
The Hon. Horace Greeley made a irst
class speech at the banquet Of the New
York Press Club, given at Delmonico's,
not long since. It was both appropriate
and humorous; for Mr.. Greeley well uu-
derstands that the words Of q philoso-
pher are never more forcible than when
spoken with a smile. The toast to which
our distinguished contemporary replied
was Country Farming and City Edit
ing" Or course this vas aimed-with
a good sense that rarely belongs to
.oastmake s-diredy at him, and he
was bound to speaking, Mr.. Greeley
told his audience several very sensible
things, and one or two. that were not 80
much so. He said that farming was an
attractive and delightful pursuit, though
it seems a farmer-editor may have to
endure frequent and suggestive COM
msnts on the cost Of his turnips per
head /; but when editing a newspaper is
compared with farming, Mr.. Greeley
thinks the editors the harder lot. He
spoke with real pride Of his barn full of
golden corn, saying, "Now that is
something achieved, something to look
at" And it is just the pleasure which
prompted those words that Mr.. Greeley
wants every workingmau to feel when
he urges w%orkingmen to tim at owning
a place in the country some day. Moth.
ing contributes more TO the combined
security and freedom Of the commu-
uity than that its members should
bs laudholders, and the ownership
OF a piece Of land always makes
tho owner more Of a man than he would
b. otherwise. Mr.. Greeley spoke of the
epasmcral nature of work on the press;
aud referring to his own life, no said:
"Thirty years have passed away, and
where is the fruit of all that lsborT'
To q superficial view there may DO none,
but there is much in reality. No man
IAN thiak and work for the public good,
earnestly and stsadfastly, during thirty
years, or ten years, or one year Of his
life, without producing precious ~results;
and if within tho period since news
papers have become a power in the
community, people have grown wiser
and better, great reforms have beer
iuaugurated, and great evils crushed,
do we not owe it largely to tho press
And has not Mr.. Greelsy's labor con
tributed as much as any mans to it,
success? Perhaps the ladies present
scarcely expected Mr.. Greeley to speak
on womau's rights, since he has beer
thought to have little sympathy will
strong-miuded womsu. But" sale
he, if any lady wants her rights nm
a wood.ehopper mysslf-my Ak is at he
service. There are plenty Of opPortuni
ties; SO then why don't some Of GU
friends who want their rights como GU
into the country and take them p Ii
this, Mr.. Greeley employs a fiimsy, com
monplace argument that is unworthy o
his genius. If the same reasoning b!
which women seek their rights also re
quires that they should chop wood,
would likewise exclude from the suffrsg
every man who cannot chop. Right
are not measured by physical strength
and Mr.. Greeley should not talk sue
trash, even at a Sorosis dinner.

WHITE PINE ITEMS.

From the White Pine News, Dec. H.
TuI MiyEs.-No material change in
any Of the mines is to be noticed. The
general prospect is entirely satisfactory,
and the feeling abroad is better than
ever before. Not q day passes that
REPRESENTATIVES Of Eastern men are not
here, looking after claims in negotiation
for sale. San Francisco is crippled.
Her papers mention an improvement in
money matters, but none has taken
place. About February, when the gold
WELD from the mountains begins to pour
down that way, times will be better
there, and White Pine will have some
benefit from it.
JOHN c. JAMES, one Of the earliest
settlers 10 this portion of the moral
heritage, is in this city on business. A
host Of friends welcomed him to the
bslmy fold Of the Pogonip, and be says
it is the best place he ever saw for get
ting ones breath. Our neighbor at the
foot of the hill made a few mistakes in
his notice of James career. James was
no, in the Utah Legislature 10 1857.
He had no trouble with Brigham Young
but ia on the best of terms with him
and thinks the old Prophet would
divide almost anything he has with
him.
MISUNDERSTANDING tho atmosphere
of Treasure Hill too healthful for the
profitable plying Of his craft, DR.. Wso
Der has removed to tho foot Of the hill
where ii is thought the slsughter-hous'
calculations and the vapors from thu
sewerage will be more favorable to thu
blue aud red light bushes. We con
graduate the Esculapian host in Haull
ton on this acquisition, and have con
ideuce that the mortuary returns viii
be greatly reduced.
CAyplpArks.-Now and then, az tn
cases occur, we will mention candidates
for onices-for next season. Rober
Hausgsn is spoken Of as a candidat,
for Sheriff. Thomas Coleman is men
toned as a candidate for the place, anC
Edward Irwin will probably contest will

DRILLiSa FOR A FUSERAL.-An Eng
li.h paper tells a funny story about a
drill sergeant who was preparing his
company 10 attend a funeral. Having
opened the ranks, 30 as to admit the
passage of the supposed cortege between
them, the Instructor ordered the men to
rest on their arms reversed" Then
by way Of practical explanation, he
walked slowly down the lane formed by
the ranks, saying as he moved, "Now
I'm the corpse-pay attention" Having
reached the end Of the party, he turned
round, regarded them steadily with q
scrutinizing eye for a moment or two,
aud then remarked in the most solemn
tone of voice, "Your 'ends are right,
your 'aads is right, but you 'arsn't got
that look Of regret you bought to ave"

RELEASING fever, popularity known as
famine fever, is raging in London. It
is a sort of stealthy epidemic, depress.
ing mind and body, though not always
mortal, and originating in squalid living
and misery. The London Times says it
i, no. the bare wan. of food, but the
hopslessness Of earning food, which
prepare the way for the ravsges of this
disease. 1t prevails in w~hi,sehapsl and
the other more wretched parts of the
east of London city.
