Is better than our regular shaped Axes for
these reasons: First-It cuts deeper. Second
1t don't stick in the wood Third 1t does
not jar the hand. Fourth--No time is wasted
in taking the Axe out of the cut. Fifth With
the same labor you will do one-third more
work than with regular Axes. Red paint has
nothing to do with the good qualities OF this
Axe, for all our Axes are painted red. Ifyour

Safety Inn T'hWmder-StOrElS.

The safest place in a thunderstorm is
the interior of an iron building, or of a
house we'll provided with lightning rods.
rs to what meets the latter condition. it is
sufficient to say that the application Of
lightning rods is a matter demanding the
exercise ef expert knowledge and judgment,
and intelligent application of the laws of
electricity. Experience has shown that it
is not safe to trust to an ignorant person
the decision as to the quantity and location
or arrangement of lightning rods for any
building whatever.
Under ordinary Giro instances, in a house
without any rods, or with rods improperly
adjusted. the safest position is a horizontal
one, in the middle of a room, upDn a feath-
er-bed elevated above the floor.
An iron bedstead, however, furnishes a
perfectly safe position, and a wooden bed
Stead NAV be male a safe place of refuge
by attaching metallic wires to the corner
posts. and connecting them all together by
other wires running from one to the other
around the bed. In these circumstances,
a discharge of lightning is provided with
an easy path in any direction, either verti.
cal or horizontal. and no injury can ensue
to a person lying upon such a bedstead.
Number nine annealed wire, or a smaller
copper or brass wire. may be conveniently
and effcctually used in this way; or strips
of sheet.metal may be tackled on.
Nails, bell-wire>, stove tunnels, and other
metals in buildings present an interrupted
path for lightning. 1t is especially danger
Gus, to assume a position between two de
tached lines or masses of conducting mat,
ter. For example, a person has been killed
by lightning while seated in a chair with
his head leaning against a bill knob; in
another instance, a uan was killed by a
discharge Of lightning, which passed from a
so-called lightning rod on the outside of a
wall to the quicksilver on the back of a
mirror, in front of which he was standing
thence through him to the floor, and TO a
stove pipe in the next lower story. Posi-

CURE FOR SNALL-Pox.-The mode of treat
ment is as follows: When the fever is at
its hei Int, and, just before the e, upton ap-
pears, the chest is rubbed with croton oil
and tartaric ointment. This causes the
whole Of the eruption to appear on that part
of the body, to the relief of the rest. It
also secures 9 full and complete eruption,
and thus prevents the disease from attack
ing the internal organs. This IS said to be
now the established mode Of treatment in
the English army in China, by general Or
ders, and is regarded as a perfect cure.

AsibFoeos nuu Cneap Coal.
There has been great deal said and writ
ten on the subject Of coal when prices are
high and tho proprietors OF the mines are
making money. When prices recede and
they can scarcely sustain themselves, but
little complaint Is made. These arc, how
ever, extreme cases. The remedy proposed
by some is reduction Of duty on foreign
coal. The only effect that would have would
be to stop the mining Of our own coal at all
points where difficulty Of transportation Is
met with, and the foreigners then, having the
market, would demand their own prices, and
could only affect the bltumlnous qualities, as
the anthracite coal Is monopoly Of the
State Of Pennsylvania.
But In my opinion the only practical rem
edy Is more competition In railroads and the
opening OF more coal mines aud greater dc.
yelopment thereof Washington city has
many advantages for commercial and manu-.
featuring purposes, and could with we'll
directed enterprise be made the greatest coal
depot and commercial and manu- featuring
city In the world, being so much nearer ali
the various coal, Iron and lumber fields of
the country than any ether city on tide water.
The building Of the three great railroads now
proposed and for which bills are now before
Congress, are the following, all OF which
should be done with as little delay as pos
sible. The Government Anthracite railroad.
which will connect both the schuylklll and
susquehanna coal regions In Pennsylvania
with Washington city, and will bring the an.
thracite coal to our market at Philadelphia
prices. The Northern Lakes and Atlantic
railroad will pass through the Broad Top
bituminous coal field In Huntingdon county,
IA nj IL. - Ii z
counties, which Is Of the same qualities OF
the Cumberland coal, and thence through
the Clearaeld and Allegheny coal fields Of
Northwestern Pennsylvania, where the coal
Is of quality about the same as the Pitts
burg coal.
The Washington and Cincinnati national
nilrbad will pass through the heart Of East
and West Virginia, directly through the coal, |
iron, aud lumber of the latter State, the |
qualities Of which are well known. The |
camel coal of that region Is the only coal
that can come In competition with the an
thracite for fuel. The charter for this road
provides also for building lateral roads to
the coal and iron mines of these two States,
and also for extending this road to connect
with the great Pacific railroad at the nearest
point. The Chesapeake and Ohio canal and
the railroad now building to the Point of
Rocks will bring the coal aud iron of Mary
land to this city, and for shipment and con-
sumption the choice OF coal can always be
had, and may be supplied In any quantity,at
a profit, at cheaper rates than at any other |
Underwater cltyi all that Is wanted Is enter |
prise and Industry, and a proper concert of
action amongst the citizens to keep the ball
rolling until all these benefits are secured. |
Then the District OF Columbia will become n
mine of wealth to the Proprietors, and Wash. |
ington become the great city the Father of |
his Country projected. JUSTICE.
