Night to be Turned into Day.

The management of the Erie Railway is
| about to illuminate the whole of that road
by plan more novel than any ever before
dreamed of, even by the widest visionary.
From this city to Buffalo and Dunkirk, it is
designed to make the line one unbroken line
of light by the application Of the electric
light to each locomotive. and stationary
lights at the ferries, in the Bergen tunnel
and at all the dangerous curves along the
route. The arrangements for manufacturing
the electric lamps are already completed by
MIR. f. Z. Morse who has the matter in
charge. Mr.. Morse claims several discover
les and Improvements in connection with the
electric light, among which may be men
toned self-sustaining battery, device for
making the carbon points, used to give the
electric point. and an ingenious arrange
ment by which the electricity to run the
lamps will be collected from the friction of
the wheels as the train is in motion. Two
lamps will he used for lighting Bergen tun-
mel, with one in the middle, as the tunnel is
not straight, but curves. Other lamps will
then be stationed at each end of the Pavonia
ferry, which will throw broad belt of light
across the North river every night. to guide
the traveller safely to his home in the metrop-
oils These lights will, it is said, be so in
tense that on the darkest foggy night there
will be no danger of collision on the water,
any more than in the day time. Still more,
1t is proposed to fill Twenty-third street
every night with flood of white light from

lis may at all times be reminded of the

An Extraordinary Operation-Thew won-
ders of Modern Surgery.

Probably the most astounding surgical
operation ever performed on the American
Continent has recently been made in this
city by DR.. G. D. Beebc. The circumstances
as we gather them from the husband of the
patient, are briefly these: Mrs. ]. B. Childs.
residing at Lee Center. Ill.,, came to this CITY
on visit, and was stopping on Sangamon
street. While there she became aware that
an old rupture, from which she had suffered
from time to time for several years. was
likely to give her trouble, and summoned
medical aid. The physician first called re.
Sarded 1t case of wind coic," but his
treatment not relieving the suffering of the
unfortunate woman, he was dismissed and DR..
L. Dodge was summoned, who recognized
the true state of the case, requested that a
surgeon be called, and Dr. Breche WAS ac-
cordlngly sent for. A careful examination
OF the case revealed the fact that the intes-
tine involved in the rupture had al
ready mortified, and to allow tins to re-
main would inevitably destroy the woman's
life He, therefore, decided to remove so
much OF the intestine as had undergone de.
composition, and by securing the extremi-
ties OF the sound intestine, to restore at
length the natural passage, and thus pre-.
serve the unfortunate lady's life. Assisted
by Drs. L. Dodge, J. S. Mitchell, and A. g.
Beebe, this dangerous and difficult operation
was accordingly performed, and four feet
SIX lnches;Of the intestine were removed from
the patients body, and may now be seen
preserved IN alcohol, in DR.. Beebes office.
Inc operation completed, the abdomen was
carefully stitched up, the patient cnjoined 10

Excitement in Pitt.

Mr.. EcIToR The broom used by your
short. hand reporter, to sweep off the chaotic
mass of confusion, intended by those great
and worthy orators of that Pitt county in
dignaton meeting, was just exactly the
| right length 1t swept them all OH SO
Glenn, that when they met again, they met
in little squads, with their sticks up, con-
sulting how to make better strike.
The conclusion was to single out their
best champions to beseech the Raleigh Sen
tinel and Tarboro .Southerner to reply imme-
diately and try to redeem them and save
them little while longer if possible. If
those papers can change the leopard's spots
they can wipe out the black deeds OF those
restless orators. II they are redeemed by
their organs it will only. be momcntarily,
for the purpose of giving them little
longer to repent. Their time is nearly
spent, they are close to the ferry and will
soon cross over where they will expect re-
ward, but alas their work there, as here, is
fluitless Their sins must be met, their
deeds are black.
They have tried to run their same old rule
or ruin spirit over the men who favored the
United States government, over the bcnevo-
lent spirit of reconstruction, and the spirit
CT equal rights before the law; but they re-
port failure, they will soon get ashamed
OF themselves, pay their taxes and we
hope decline any further attempt in
the future to raise another indignation
meeting. They say they are all loyal now,
but they ought to have brought up the
proof sooner. We are all loyal now after
we couldn't help it. That is not the ISSUE
We want men who can best work or best
agree. We don't want men who will tear
up Il whole net because there are two or
three fish in it that are unciean. Why not
save the net and the good fish. Saw the
thorns off the catfish and let them swim to

ing all the rest to death.

Remarkable Accident-Disastrous Eff
fectS.

A letter received at Louisville from
Princeton, KY, speaks of fearful accident
which occurred on the Goth A man named
Boot Crow was hauling upon wagon two
immense mill stones, one of which weighed
$3.50 pounds. While passing along the side
ct a high hill the heaviest stone rolled from
the wagon and down the declivity with
great velocity, crushing small trees and
shrubbcry in its course. The house of d far
mer named Darwell was situated at the foot
OF the hill. The mill stone went crushing
through fence and into the yard of the far
mers's honse, where were a number of bee
hives In the yard were playing a bevy
OF children. The bee hive were up
set, and the bees in the confusion lighted
upon the children, singing every one of
them IN frightiul manner. The progress
nf the great stone was not impeded in the
least by It's collision with the hives, and
went bounding into a stock pasture bevond
the house. 1t dashed into a herd of calves
aud horses. killing two of the former and
one of the latter almost instantly. The
children in the yard had been comp
pietely covered with the bees, and each one
was stung by them until their persons
were entirely covered with white swellinos.
One OF them died IL few hours after the fer.
rble occurrence, and two others are entirely
speechless and blind They can hardly re-
cover.

Mermaid found in New .1p,ssv-

The people of Toms River, New JERSEY,
are Just now having little sensation-it
being nothing less than the capture of a YER
liable mermaid or at least a water animal
strongly resembling that poetic species of
nsh. Two fishermen, while pursuing their
vocation few days ago in the Inlet, effected
the capture after violent struggle. At see
ing the animal its captors became hugely
frightened, and took to their heels. After
whiie they mustered up sufficient coura ge
10 return and look at their prize. In APP
pearance it more resembled a human being
tilan fish, having face frightfully iiie
tiat oi man or woman, with BODY and
breasts exactly resembling the latter. The
lower part terminated in fish tail. The
fishermen, after looking at the monster, be-
oame SO superstitious that they threw it
g ack INTO the sea. It's pity they did not
preserve it.

POETRY.
Seed Time aud Harvest.
By JOHN G. WHITTIER.

As Ger his furrowed fields which lie
Beneath a coldly-droping sky,
Yet chill with winters melted snow,
The husbandman goes forth to SOW,
Thus freedom on the bitter blast
The venture Of thy Seed we cast, q
And thus to warmer sun and rain,
To swell the germ, and ill the grain.
Who calls thy glorious service hard?
Who deems it'not his own reward?
Who. for its trials, counts it less
A cause of praise and thankIulness
1t.may not be our lot TO WELD
The sickle in the ripened field;
Nor ours to hear, on summer ewes,
The reapers song among the shcaves;
Yet where our duty's task is wrought
In unison with Gods great thought,
The near and future blend in one,
And whatso'cr Is willed is donel
And ours the grateful service whence
Comes, day by day, the recempense;
The hope, the trust, the purpose stayed,
The fountain and the MONDAY shade.
And were this life the utmost span,
The only end and aim of man,
Better the toll of fields like these
Than waking dreams and slothiul case.
But life, though failing like our grain,
Like that revives and springs again;
Aud, early called, how blest are they
Who wait in heaven their harvest-day!
