fined by the great revolution concluded in
Switzerland, confined by the coasts Of Italy
and Spain, now you throw this blow into her
face, when she already has another grand
menace on the Rhine. Don't you know what
may happen 1t may happen that Napoleon
III will seek, in the now stifed and sophisti-
Gated liberty and democracy, the crown of his
son in victory on the Rhine And what
then What then will be our fate ? II Prussia
triumphs in this great contest, don't you
fear the fate we may have when there is no
obstacle in the North? And if France
triumphs, do you not fear that the last dream
of Napoleon III may be to restore the empire
of Charlemagne, and embrace from the Rhine
to the Ebro ? You expose Spain to these
grand catastrophes. Spain does not believe
the candidature of the Duke of Genoa is
serious. 1t is formal. 1t is joke. 1t can
not succeed. But the enigma Of our situation
must cease Save us from it in the interest
Of all If you wish the people to obey you,
you must obey the law. My friends and my
self are resolved to contribute all we can to
O normal epoch of order and peace. We wish
liberty, and the government of the people by
the people. We wish nothing to do with the
conservatives. If you wish to win us to your
banners, don't offer us employs, nor places, nor
commands. We wish not those; we despise
them Offer us the government of the
people by the people-separation of Church
and State, reduction of the army, and ma
tional reserve, a diminution in the taxes,
etc, and then you will see us unite with you
in the furtherance of all grand ideas. The
sword is not the best lghtning-rod against
social tempests Like all metals it attracts!
Adopt the lightning-rod of England, Switzer-
land, of Belgium, of the United States
Place that above the sword-the lightning
rod of civil power and justice (Cheers.) If
you wish the violence of the people to abate,
you must abate yours. Enough of suspen-
sions of ayuntamientos enough of falsifying
the constitutional guarantees; enough of dis
solutions of militias; enough of sophistical
circulars Create a government just and
liberal, and as power passes SO fugitively from
the hands of liberals, you may be condemned
to long opposition, and tomorrow may
yourselves be wanting the liberty and the
justice we ask to-day! Qntense applause
repeated over and over again.

Mr. Charles c. Perkins, OF Boston, read paper on
this subject before the Social Science Association
which held session In Philadelphia during the past
week. After facilitating the association on its share
IN the steps taken during the past year In the fur
therance OF art education, he went on to sny that,
although apparently Of local, they are really Of ma
tlona Importance; because though teachers educated
tried system, they tend to bring about unity OF
action. Certain nations not favored by cir-
cumsIances as IN the past ana America II she win,
can soon hope TO take her place among European
nations in their art industries. The gentleman then
pointed ont the lessons we should learn from foreign
efforts In the OF art education. As we recog
nize the need OF State help in other branches Of
education, SO we should also In this He proposeQ
that the Social Science Association should organize
a special division, called the National Art Departs
ment. and made motion that II be composed OF two
OF more persons, nominated from each OF the prin-
cipa cities OF the United States with instructions to
propose scheme OF organization by means oil which

A REMARKABLE ESCAPE.
A Ride n Cow. .cntcher-Truth stranger
than Fiction.

than Fiction.
The Lancaster Express of last evening says:-
A somewhat singular accident occurred this
morning at the junction of the Pennsylvania
Central Railroad and Harrisburg turnpike,
opposite COonley's coal yard. just Ian caster
train No. 2, due here AT $40, was reaching that
point, an aged gentleman, named Christian
Kaufman, eighty years of age, from near
Petersburg, this county, attempted to drive
across the track with a horse attached to light
dearborn market wagon. The horse became
stubborn right npon the track, and there he
stood, refusing to be coaXed or driven, while
the train swooped down upon the doomed
concern. Slowly it came, but surely; the
brakes having been put down, however and
every measure taken on the instant to make the
shock light One the horse was simply thrown
into the ditch by the side of the track receiving
little injury, while the wagon was broken into
great number of pieces. And now comes the
singular and remarkable part of the affair."
The bed of the wagon remained intact, and,
with the old gentleman safely ensconced
therein, was gently lowered upon the COW
catcher and Mr. Kaufman, holding on with a
wonderful tenacity, had free ride for short
distance, when the train stopped. He was much
bewildered at the situation, at first, but finally
came TO realize that he had been providentally
preserved from what might have been fearful
death.
