\ PATENT RAIL-SpLIrrEE- inge-
nious Georgian hns invented "patent
rail-splitter," by which an immense pine
log can he rivcn in very brief time. A
small iron cylinder, or tube, abont half
inch in diameter and six inches long, in
two equal segments fitting closely toge-
ther, Is inserted into an orifice made
with q common auger in the centre of
the fallcn log. This is filed with powder
with funnel, the charge amounting to
an ordinary muskct load; fuse is then
attached and fired, and tho toughest log
is split lil;o au acorn. The Georgians
regard it rs grand labor-saving inven-
ton in these days when the laboring
classes of tho South have their time
almost wholly cngrossed by politics.

FRANCE AND SPAIN. There seems little
practical difference now in the internal
condition OF tho doubtful republic of the
French and the unsettled kingdom Of
Spain. Conspiracies without number
are supposed to exist in every corner of
France, and now that NJ. Rouher, one
OF the most prominent figures of the
second empire, md once President of
the Imperial Corps Lcgisatif, has found
his way into the Assembly at Versailles,
every breath from the atmosphere of
Franco is full OF startling rumors. The
Spaniards. meanwhile, tolerate their
imported King apparently only to rem
der his position uncomfortable. They
have had one more vexatious "crisiS,"
one more ministerial dissolution, and
with their Carlist plots and Republican
demonstrations, who knows what is to
become of them? Altogether, tho two
nations are in very sad plight.

MORE GHOST ANTICS AT vIR-
CHINA.

Ghosts are getting so common up at
Virginia City that they are hardly
worth mentioning, Jet we feel It but
right that We should record . few an
tics in that line noticed by one Of our
reportorial stan at Virginia City, last
Saturday night. 1t was the witching
hour Of IL, when disembodied spirits
stalk forth through the frosty empy-
rear and seek for circles and mediums
Of communication with friends they
have left stopping about on this mum
dane sphere. One Of these private
circles was gathered together In q
quiet little room In tho rear Of
the Adriatlc Saloon. Seated around
q table were about q dozen men, all
with their hands spread out fiat on the
table, awaiting the magnetic and spir.
itualistic phenomena. IL came. Char
ley Westlake was the medium. This
is what no did: He placed sixteen red
faro checks In four rows, 90 as to form
a solid square. in the middle Of the
table, and when he felt the spirit infiu-
ence strongly twitching his arms and
hands, he sprang nervously from the
table and passed Into the next room.
Then, In the presence of all the other
participants, one Of their number with
the tip Of his finger touched one Of the
checks, taking care not to dlsplace
it In the least. Charley was called In,
and holding his extended fore finger
Just over the square OF checks, he
passed 1t from one to the other till the
strong influence, whatever it might be,
drew his finger iorcibly and qu'verlng
down upon the very check that had
been touched. All satisfied themselves
Of the fact that he did not and could
not BY any means or possibility
see the other person touch the check,
therefore necessarily had to be con-
trolled by some outside influence In
discovering which check had been
touched. He did this with unerring
accuracy numerous times, till all were
satisfied as to the magic power which
assisted him, and subsequently, showed
other demonstrations Of that unseen
power operating through his medium
ship by experiments In biology, put
ting one susceptible Individual into
4 deep sleep, from which he
was awakened with great diti-
Guilty, and then only at the
call Of other spirits. We do not pre-
tend to explain this matter ut all, but
give it as cheap a. we received 1t. All
we ask is for the ghosts to keep away
from Gold Hill.

Another Fatal Accident.

Again have we to record an accident
that proved fatal, causing the death OF
one. of Holmes county's most honored
citizens. On Wednesday evening of
last week, Mr.. John V. Jeffers living
near Nashville in this county was kick
ed by one of his own horses; and in
jured so badly that he died at II o'clock
the same night. He had been in the
stable feeding his horses and cattle, and
was carrying two tin buckets past one
of the stalls which frightened the horse
it is supposed, and caused him to kick
and trample him under his feet. A
man who was in the barn floor above
heard the noise and fastened to the sta
BILE to find him insensible. He was car
ried to the house, where hes became
sensible for a few minutes, and then
fell asleep, as it were, and passed away
at-12 O'Clock. He was buried on Fri
day. The funeral procession is said to
have been the largest ever seen in the
county. He was good citizen and well
thought of by all who knew him.

Rich Without Money.

Many a man is rich without money
Thousands of men with nothing in
their pockets are rich.
A man born with good consti-
tuition, good stomach, good heart
and good limbs, and pretty good head
piece, is rich. Good bones are better
than gold tough muscles better than
silver !; and nerves that fash fire and
carry energy to every function, are
better than houses or land. Ii is bet
ter than landed estate to have the
right kind of a father and mother.
Good breeds and bad breeds exist
among men as really as among herds
and horses. Education may do much
to check evil tendencies or to develope
good ones but it is greater thing to
inherit the right proportion of faculties
to start with. The man is rich who
has good disposition-who is natural
ly kind, patient, cheerful, hopeful, and
who has flower of wit and fun in his
composition. The hardest thing to get
on with i'm this life is mans own self.
A cross, selfish fellow, desponding
and complaining fellow, timid and
care-burned man, these are all born de-
formed on the inside. Their feet do
not limp, but their thoughts'do.

Bookkeeping

To any one who desires to have his
account books overhauled, Strengthened
out or posted up, we can highly rec
ommend Mr.. Henry A. Smith. He is
an excellent penman, and understands
the business thoroughly. He has been
engaged by several of our business
men, to open out new books, post up
old ones, and straighten out tangled ac-
counts. Complete satisfaction is given
in all cases. He has just finished
opening out new set of books for us,
which for neatness, clearness are equal
to any. Weheartily recommend him to
all who may need such work done. We.
would likewise say just here, that We
shall present all our debtors with a
statement of their account, in a few
days, and hope they will be ready to
respond promptly.

A SinguIarly Deliberate Suicide.

George Factor, jr, of Coshocton, sui
cided in the following approved man.
ner: Having lost a-horse Saturday
evening, he was requested by his father
to take another horse and go in search
of the lost one Sunday morning, which
he did. After riding about five miles it
is supposed he tied the horse with the
halter strap, and putting the bride rein
around his own neck, mounted the
horse, tied the bride to limb above
him and started the living gallows from
under him. His feet were within ten
inches OF the ground when found. No
doubt the act was premeditated, as his
watch and pocket-book were found in
the stable next morning. No reason
known for the act.
