A RACE wrTHA PANTHER.-In Penn
sylvanla. a few days ago, n boy Of II
years. living In Roc&ton, made a mar
row Q cape from a panther. While on
his way to tbs tunnel, on an errand,
In Union Township. he WIS startled
by n low and heavy growl nearly over
head. Upon looking up he saw n pan
thor perched Oh a tree, about so feet
from the ground, which WAS wiggling
his tail Ia anticipation Of springing
upon his prey. No sooner did the
boys eyes meet the panther's than 1t
gave a loud and very piercing yell and
leaped to the ground. This sudden,
bold and noisy demonstration on the
part Of the panther, frightened the colt
which the boy was riding, and 1t took
to flight Mt full speed-the panther
keeping close to Its side and about
neck and neck, giving an occasional
yell, which seemed to add speed to the
colts feet. After running In this man.
nor for about forty rods, the panther
gave up the chase.

HOME REpUcTIoN or ORHs. - No
stronger argument a DO adduced In
favor of the working Of ores ut the
locality where they are found than n
comparison between the material pros
pority Of the producing and manufac-
turing States on tho Atlantic coast.
The Southern States produced the cot
ton that New England manufactured
into mercantile fabrics, and the result
Of thi. policy Of the producers in send
Ing the raw material from home to
have 1t manufactured was to enrich
New England at their expense. A
comparison between the financial
status Of the New England and South
ern States shows that there Is im.
mensely more profit In manufacturing
than in producing the raw material.
Tn, same relative position of profit
exists between the miner and reducer
Of ores. There is vastly more profit
In reducing than in mining these ores,
in proof Of which we may instance
the fact that tho mill men on the No.
vada ComstOcE lode have more money
than the miners. Another important
argument In favor Of reducing ores ut
home, Is that 1t stimulates enterprise,
and general intellectual do.
velopment - considerations which of
themselves should encourage the poll
cy Of home reduction.-Sqn Lake Her

CARBoIIc ACID IN SMALL PoN.-The
use Of carbolic acid as n disinfectant
and curative agent in small pox and
other contagious diseases should DO
universally known. DIR. Burgess Of
San F~rancisco, says, In the Boston
Journal Of Chemistry: "In the late
fearful epidemic of small poX | have
tested the dislnfectnnt and prophylac-
tic power of oarbolic acid In 4 way
that leaves no doubt In my mind Of its
superior merit. Indeed, during the
latter part Of the conrse of tho cpl
demic, | trusted TO 1t exclusively. In
t~hirty-six instances of its exclusive
use, the disease spread In but one-and
that was In q family Of very filthy
habits, whore cleanliness and proper
nursing were unattainab!e." Carbolic
acid In q fluid form Is n cheap article.
To dlsinfect All apartment two or three
teaspoonsful may DO put In o small
bucket OF water, and scattered about
with a whisk broom. Or tho same or
even a smaller quantity may be placed
In a dish and mixed with sand. Tho
evaporation from this will dlsiufect
the air. If the mir should become too
strongly charged tho evaporation may
be checked by covering the dish more
or less, as required. This atmosphere
containing carbollc acid Is healthy,
aud soon becomes quite agreeable, es-
pccially when associated with its
power as a destroyer oflnfoction. The
bed clothes, blankets, ETC., and clothes
worn by persons having the disease or
coming In contact with such, may he
washed with soap now manufactured
containing carbolic acid. Or common
soap may be used, with two or three
teaspoonsful OF carbollc acid added to
the suds. Thus may complete dlsin-
fsction DO produced in bed clothes or
body clothes of patients subjected to
small pox or any other infectious
disease.

The PmNce or WALES HER.-Thc
question Of his title rs King Of Great
B,itain ha' been already canvassed by
the members Of the royal family, his
father and grandmother taking an ami
mated part In tho discussion. The
Prince Of Wales wished that his son.
In the event of his own death. should
be proclaimed as Edward VII, Ed
ward. tho Black Prince, having been
killed IN battle. but Queen Victoria
wished that he should have the title Of
Albert l., should he come to power.
This matronly proposition was not by
any means agreeable to the Prince Of
Wales. Notwithstanding the fact that
1t W 8 made In compliment to her
father. During his collegiate career
the Prince imblbed a dislike to the
idea of "Germanizing England" as
1t was termed by his classmates Of the
native aristocracy, and hence his OBJ
lection to the Queens suggestion with
respect to the new monarchical title
for His son should he como to the
throne.

A dispatch fir ON Cairo, dated Decem.
Der 10th, says:
One of the meri arrested In the In

Pinkerton, OIL the charge of being con-
nectcd with tie recent robberies Of the
Southern Express Company In Ten
nessee, made 4 daring attempt to es-
cape this morning from the steamer
Illinois, while under way between here
and Columbus, Kentucky. He seized
Pinkerton's revolver, shot at and
missed him, and then jumped over
board, evidently intending to swim to
the shore, but was drowned.
Another dispatch says: The name
of the express robber drowned was

asked Pinkerton to go out on the
guard, rs he had something to tell him:
No sooner had they reached the guard
than Clark. though heavily ironed,
snatclied Pinkerton's revolver from
his belt, cooked it, and presented 1t at
Pinkerton's head, saying, "Ihave you
now" Pipkcrton called his comradc,
Connell. who, springing to his side.
knocked up the pistol as 1t was dis
charged, the ball grazing Pinkerton,s
temple. A desperate struggle cnsued,
during which Clark fell overheard,
passing under the wheel and sunk. II
Is supposed the wheel struck him at
all events, he never rose again. Bar
ton, Clark's accomplice, had made a
full confession, and Clark. knowing
this, attempted to kill Plnkerton fol
revenge. Barton was lodged In jail In

FRUIrs AND FowL,.-Our markets
are tolerably we'll supplied with ap-
Piles, pears and cured fruits from Cali
fnrnia, Oregon. and tho upper Missis-
slppi States. The Increase OF the trade
Of California with Utah since the COM
mencement Of u mining epidem-
IL (Which Is sure to become endemic)
has been very large, and will further
increase with tho development Of our
mines. Even now we buy Of Califor-
MIA n large proportion Of the flour VIC
consume, and must buy still moro
largely with tho increase Of popula-
ton. At one time there existed In
California an apprehension that the
opening Of our mines would damage
that State by attracting hither popula-
ton that would have else gone there,
and that tho entire trade Of this region
would go East. Events have dissi-
pated these apprshensions, and DEM
OnStrated the fact Of . community Of

A NEWLY Invented RAlL.-Letters
patent have been taken out for a new
rail for railroads, which promises to
do away with the continual rattle and
jar Of railroad travel. II Is q continual
II rail-, for which the inventor and
those who have examined It claim i'm
portant advantages over any rail- now
In u,e. The rail- Is In two sections, the
upper section tapping W tho lower
and fastened there by horizontal bolts.
Between che sections Is India rubber
packing, flve-eighths Of an inch In
thickness. 1t is thought the use Of this
Pail will provs important In many re-
spects. and be much cheaper In the end
than those now In use. The upper
sections may be made either Of iron or
steel. and when worn out can be laid
without disturbing the under section.
A great expense will be saved In re-
laying the track. Tho India rubber
packing will give the chr an easy and
almost noiseless motion, and prevent
the sharp conclusions which so fire.
qusntly result In the breaking Of the
sxles. Tho saving to rolling stock
will DO an Item Of very great Import
ance, and will commend the use Of the
improvement to all companies that
study economy "a we'll as safety.

RAILWAY Dusr.-A Msncheste Eng
land, scientist has recently given all
account Of a mi~croscopical examine
ton of dust blown Into q railway car
rage and collected on = newspaper
placed OH a seat near the open window.
This dust showed n large proportion
OF highly magnetic fragments Of iron.
Tho particles were long, straight and
thin, the largest being about N one
hundred-and-fiftleth Of an inch. The
weight Of the dust collected vas 81
grains and the proportion Of iron par
ticles amounted to 90 grains. The
iron, which was separated by n soft
magnet, consisted Of fused particles OF
dross uko cllnkers, which were moro
or less covered with cxcreseences and
spikes and elongated into tails. There
were also small angular particles like
cast iron having a crystalline structure.
The other portion OF the dust con-
sisted largely OF cinders, fragments
Of glass. a few bits Of yellow metal,
grains Of sand aud bits OF coal. It Is
thought probable that the magnetic
strips OF Iron must be lamlno from the
rails and wheel tires. and that the
fused Iron particles came from the coal
or from the CRATE bars. This dust was
collected near Birmingham.

VULaAmIsMs.- Nothing appears so
stupid in n female as to hear her in
duige In the vulgarism or slang phrases
50 common among the b.hoys. For
instance, to hear y lady say "my fell

unable to find language low enought to
eXpllcate Its meaning. As the Grand

trance Of the Grand Central Hotel. 1t
contained Fisk and companion. The
former alighted and entered the hotel
for the purpose OF proceeding to his
rooms. As he assembled the first step,
Stokes came out of III adjoining pas
sageway, impoverished by Fisk, unbut-
toned his coat and drew out a revolver
and rapidly discharged three shots at
Fisk. The first lodged In Fis&'s shout
der; the second whi;tled close by his
head, and the third, with more fatal
direction, took effect in the abdomen,
inficsing q mortal wound. Fisk at
oucc staggered and fell, whilo Stokes
cast u look Of hatred on tho PROSTATE
form of his victim and said, In savage
tones : al have done for tho sou Of n

made no remark. Immediately after
the shots wore fred the hotcl employees
rushed to the scene. While some cared
for the wounded man, Others seized
Stokes, who, seeing that escape was
impossible, made no resistance. lilo
was promptly handed over to the po-

his room, where tho surgeon Of the
hotel was soon In attendance upon
him. Meanwhile Geographic messages
were sent for further surgical MD and
for the friends Of Fisk. The scene ut
the hotol after the shooting was o:lc OF
extraordinary excitement. Crowds
coming from the matinees Of tho rari-
Gus theaters, hearing of the occur
