HOME MANUFAoTURE.-Two old plowmen
down east were telling tough stories of their ex-
ploits in breaking up new ground. The linen
was taken off the bush in this yarn:
"Twas up in DiXmOnt, twenty-seven years
ago this spring. | was blowing in stump
ground, with a team of nine pairs of cattle for
Sol. Cunningham; we were going along, making
not very smooth work among rocks and stumps /;
well, one day the pint o the pillow struck fair
against sound stump four foot through, split
it square across the heart, and was follerin'
the pillow through, when the thought flashed
through my mind that the pesky stump might
snap together and pinch my toes, so | jest
gripped the pillow handles firm and swung my
feet up out O. the way, and the stump sprung
back and catched the slack of my pantaloons.
That brought everything up stannin, Well, |
frightened my hold, and Jim Swithin, he and
Sol was driyin', they spoke to the cattle, and
we snaked that stump right out by the roots,
and it had awful long ones"

ers," said the other

freight be transported, as is now done over a
road of the ordinary gauge, whose business is
as heavy as that of any railway now in opera
ton. The statistics, upon which an elaborate
calculation having these results is based by Mr..
E. N. Robinson, a practical railroad engineer of
San Francisco, are those of the London and
Northwestern railway of England. In carrying
passengers similar economy is claimed for the
narrow gauge. If these conclusions are as
sound as they appear to be, the recent change of
gauge by western railroad from six feet to
four feet eight inches may only be premontion
of the final triumph of the three feet gauge
over that now in general use.

THE CRoSoPuER.-ln interesting object is
the chronopher, or instrument from which all
England is supplied with the correct time. Six
teen of the most important cities of the king
dom are in direct communication with this in
strument, which is in itself in direct communi-
cation with the observatory at Greenwich AT
1858 o'clock every morning all other work is
suspended in order that there may be no inter-
ference with what is called the "time current"
which, precisely at the striking of the clock,
flashes the intelligence to the sixteen stations
with which it is in communication. And not
merely at these large towns, but at every post
office throughout the kingdom, the clerks, at
8 5S O'Clock are on the lookout for the signal
which is being passed along their line, and the
clocks'are adjusted accordingly. Messrs. Dent,
Benson, and all the principal watch makers in
London receive the time every hour from this
chronopher. Time guns at Newcastle and at
Shields are also fired at 1 p. NJ. by batteries con-
nected with the chronopher, the clock attached
to which is regulated for accuracy to the TWEEN
teth part of a second.

1t is high time that something was done to pre-
vent the too frequent horrible boiler explosions
We never write of the shocking details but what we
sicken at the dreadful and agonizing particulars and
every time the question occurs to U.S. Is there
no remedy for the evili The recent disaster in
New York, where more than sixty persons were UNI
expeetedly hurled into eternity, and nearly two
hundred more were bruised, scaIded and MANNED,
1t is said could have been averted. The boiler had
been pronounced safe on a certificate of govern.
ment inspector. The engineer had for thirteen
years filled the same position, and was competent;
but then he was neglectful; he remained away from
his post too long the pressure of steam became too
great, and the fearful catastrophe resulted there
from
But then may we ask why was not the Westfeld
supplied with such boiler that could not explode
with such disastrous efectS
Now it happens that we know of what we speak,
and emphaticaly say that there is just such thing
"a boiler that cannot explode-and one that has
been so long and well tested that it would be idle to
say that the day will come when they will blow up
to which we can add that 1t Is presumption of the
weakest kind.
1t is not our province to endorse any boiler or
any mans goods in preference to anothers; but
when life, limb and property are at stake, we can
not avoid saying strong words in favor Of the Harr
son Safety Boiler of Philadelphiaa boiler that is
constructed unlike all Others and one that is theo
retcally and practically safe from all destructive ex
plosions, even when carelessly used.

In Kentucky, to-day, there will be an election for
state oficers,-the republican candidate for gov
ernor being Gen. John NJ. Harlan, and the "dem-
ocratic" candidate Preston H. Leslie who may
be general, judge, a MAJOR, or something
else, but who certainly was, at one time, rabid
know nothing. He now talks like rabid leader
of the kuklux. The canvass has been very ac-
tive and earnest, and there is prospect that
the republicans will make large gains. Gen.
Harlan is known in Kentucky as avery superior
man, in character and ability; he is likely to
get larger vote than has ever before been
given in Kentucky for republican. We shall
soon know whether this hope Of republican
gains is well founded. 1t is so strong that some
have predicted republican triumph. 1t is too
much to expect the election OF Gen. Harlan, at
this time; but it is reasonable to hope the
voting will show reaction from kukluxism.
