purpose of witnessing a billiard contest be-

eighty-three points, making ahne run oftWo
hundre and twelve in the game. This was
followed by a game Of French billiards be-
tween champion Dion and Mr.. Bowen, a skill
full New York amateor, one hundred points

Mr.. Bowen won by only two points. The per

curse of people assembled that many were
entirely unable to witness the performance,
and in conformity with the general desire
champion Dion will give a second exhibition

New Method Of warmIDg railway Cars.

b introduction OF a new method of warm
ing railway cars, on some Of the French and
German lines, has been attended with crafty
ing success. A preparation OF wood charcoal,
nitrate Of potash and starch is employed. AT
first the charcoal was burnt in perforated
boxes two feet long, four and one-half inches
wide and two and three-fourths inches deep.
Il YVES soon found, however, that this COM
bustlon caused violent headaches, and the
charcoal was therefore put into close iron
boxes, plsc-d under the seat, a double top
being employed TO prevent the seats Of the
cars from becoming too hot. The prepared
charcoal is packed Ia the boxes in pieces four
inches long, three inches wide and two inches
thick. Or the line between Aix-la-Chapelle
and Berlin, eight pieces Of charcoal were used
for heating a compartment. This quantity
efficiently warmed the car during sixteen
hours, and at the end OF the journey the fuel
thirty-two shillings per cwt., and the expense
of heating one compartment is laid To be
much less than that required by any Of tie
ordinary methods employed, being less than
a penny an hour.

RAILROAD NEWS.


According TO the semi-annual report Of the
railways in England and Wales, lately pub
lished in the London Times, we hUd that this
branch Of business has been unusually pros.
porous during the past six months. The four
teen principal lines place their receipts at
slI,le5, Cps, an increase of SS2l ,26S over the cor
responding period last year. Some of these
English railways have an enormous traffic
the London and Northwestern, for instance,
which has received in six months E2,5O0,OOO, or
at the rate CT 5,O00,OOO per nun This is
said TO be double the sum earned by any
railway in the United States, though several
Of our lines have a much larger mileage than
any in Great Britain. The Times claims that
the increase Of business comes mainly from
passengers, who constitute the best paying
portion OF the railway system.

As the period of the summer

to cloud the brows of orr people /;
but other clouds have covered

our faces and our farmers with glad
ness. Cotton is rank, luxuriant and
full OF promise, and Corn, the staff
of life, will yield this year above an
average. Not in twenty years have
we had season more propitious the
results of which will be greatly aug
mented by the extensive use of fer

under the dye the bridge settled
and the mei agerie cages of the plat

Mr.. Editor: In compliance with
your request, l will give you an item
or so in regard to the crops, politics,
&c., in Alabama. | am pleased to
say that so far as my observation
extends and from information CLEAN
ed from others, that there is a larger
acreage of corn planted in the south
ern portion or cotton belt of Ala
bama, than has been for several
years. This speaks we'll for the
planter. Corn and cotton are very
promising and we anticipate large
crop, and one that will net the farm
er more by far than cotton planted
alone.
The people are almost unit for
Greeley--and if nominated by the
Baltimore Convention, will give him
a handsome majority. We want
we confidently look for
ward to the election of Mr.. Greeley
as the dawn of peace and prosperity
for our oppressed country. While
we do not endorse all of Mr.. Gree
ley's principles, yet We believe that
he will do more towards uniting the
country, healing the wounds engen-
dered by the late war, than any
man that is now prominent before
the people, But enough. #&.

Midsummer Maladiea.

The hot solar rays that ripen the harvests
generate many distressing diseases, If the liv
er be at all predisposed to irregularities this is
the season in which bilious attacks may be an
ticipatad. A weak stomach, too, is weakest in
the summer months and the loss of vitality
through the pores by excessive perspiration is
so great, that wholesome tonic, combining
also the properties of diffusive stmulant and
gentle exhilarant, is in many cases necessary to
health, and under no circumstances should be
dispensed with by the sickly and debilitated
Of all the preparations intended thus to refresh
sustain. and fortify the human frame, there is
none that will compare with Hostetter's Cele-
brated Stomach Bitters, They have been
weighed in the balance of experience and not
found wanting have been recommended from
the first as great medicinal specific, not as
beverage, and in spite Ofinterrested opposition
from innumerabie quarters, stand, after TWEEN
ty years trial, at the head Of all proprietary
medicines intended for the prevention and cure
of all ordinary complaints Of the stomach the
liver, the bowels and the nerves In the un-
healthy districts bordering the great rivers OF
California, HOstetters Stomach Bitters may be
classed as the standard one for every species Of
intermittent fever. The people who inhabit
those districts, place the most implicit confidence
in the preparations confidence that is increas-
ed every year by the results of its operation.
As bitters, so called, of the most pernicious
character, are springing up like fungi on every
side, the public is hereby forewarned against
the dram shop frauds. Ask for Hostetter's
Bitters, see that the label ETC., are correct, and
remember that the genuine article is never sold
in bulk. but in bottles only.
