DIR. Hebbard lectures this evening on the
all-important subject of digestion. In his
last lecture he promised, in giving notice of
this, that he would illustrate and explain the
three different kinds of dyspepsia - the
catarrhal, the nervous, and the billious-and
teach the people how to avoid these terrible
plaques of the stomach. We predict a full
house for the able Professor. His efforts are
in the right direction, and not only are his
addresses full and running over with instruc-
ton which the people need and are wanting
more than almost any other, but they are en-
tertaining to very high degree.

FROM INDIANAPOLIS.

Indianapolis, Feb. 3d. There was much
excitement here to-day, in consequence of
the resignation this morning of thirty -four
republican members of the House, which pre-
vents further legislation this session. The
reason assigned is an attempt of the demo-
cratic majority to pass bill re-districting the
State, in violation to the constitution, which
provides it shall not be re-districted oftener
than once in six years. The last re-district-
ing was four years ago.

inquire what legislation was necessary to pro-

Soon after the mixed train from Augusta
left the Falmouth depot on Wednesday after
noon, one of the fat cars, loaded with wood,
was thrown from the track in consequence of
a coupling drawing out, and the train was
divided. A special freight train was follow
ing this train at the rate Of twenty five miles
an hour, but in consequence Of a curve in the
road the engineer could not see the train
ahead. Conductor Jewett saw the danger at
once and went back with all the speed he
could make to signal the coming train. The
engineer saw him just in time to save a col
lision, by q vigorous use Of all the means in
his power. The passenger car attached to
the mixed train was one of the best ever put
on the track in the State, manufactured at
the p. & X. r. X. shop in Augusta, used on
this occasion for the purpose of taking the
Stockholders and Directors of the Maine
Central road from their meeting in Water
vile, on that day. But for the prompt and
immediate action of conductor Jewett, just
such action as would have saved the Hamburg
disaster, this passenger car would have been
smashed up, from which the passengers had
but just time to escape. Such promptness,
on such an emergency, is deserving of more
than passing notice, or vote of thanks.

WHERE ARE THEYP

This sumo old river rolled along,
With current deep and slow;
But where are they that trOd its banks
A hundred years ago'
Hther the youth and maiden came,
AS nov they galy come,
To sport beneath the orchard trees,
Aud watch the fragrant bloom.
They talked aud laughed, danced and sung,
They told tho story old,
That charms and thrills the human heart
Till death has made it cold.
And life looks bright. and earth looks fair,
They could not feel it true,
That just like shadows they must pass,
Or like the moruiug dew.
There seemed to be such need Of them;
For service from their hands
There rose. whichever way they turned,
lmportuuate demands
GLOW could the world 90 on they thought.
without us in our place p
Yet on their rivers pleasant shore
They left no single trace.
j. Old mos,y, crumbing rrayestoncs tell
On yonder hillside fair
Where sadly, dust to dust was laid;
But they were never there.
Tho grasses wave, the spring.birds sing,
The gentle souih,winds blow;
But where nrc they who trol these banks
A hundred years ago2
The SUI shines on, the moon and stars
March on their wontGd way;
But those who watched them then have fed,
And where. 0 where are they?
