a SAFE Laup.

A correspondent Of the Scientific
American gives the following direc-
tions for using d kerosene lamp 80 as
to insure perfect safety. The plan
promises we'll and is worthy of trial /:

can into the lamp, fill up the inter
stices with sponge, and saturate the
whole thoroughly with kerosene. ]

nights; as long as any oil remains
in the wick the lamp keeps burning

contfived to upset q small table sup

of breaking the glass no iurthc
damage was done. not even soilinl

The man who can have his coffin
made while alive. must look at death
phiIosophically. We hear q case
in Point Person, North Carolina
Mr.. Richard Harris. who lived near
Bradsher's store, thirty years ago,
turned out o sassafras tree TO grow
for the purpose of making coffin,
aud about twelve monthspgo the old
man had it cut down and got some
one in Roxborough to make his cof-
fin out of it. The old chap occasion
ally gets into it, and stretches him
self out by way of showing his neigh
bors 'sfit." He paid the maker in
| wheat, so he is one living man who
| will have no fuss over his grave abou,
his coffin when dead.
This reminds us of an old coon in
Murfresboro, N. q, who had cofir
cast of iron before the war. He hac
his grave dug and walled up with
brick, with magnificent tombstone
setting forth his name, place of birth
land fixing his death, ''somewher'
about the year 1861" But he wa
alive and kicking in 1868, The oil
chap kept his cast iron coffin in tn
corn crib, and used to shell corn il
liz. Tue crib needed no lock at night
for you couldn't get negro to g
near it after dark.

The people Of Ohio decided at the
last election to call convention for
the revision of the State Constitution,
and it will be for the Legislature now
in session to fix a time for the olec-
tion of it's members. One of the
most important changes proposed re.
lates to tho future position of the
Governor, and the questions whether
he is to have the veto power or not,
and whether his term of office shall
be extended from two to four years,
are likely to excite lively discussion.
Under the existing Constitution the
powers of the Governor of Ohio are
of very limited nature. Tom Cor.
win used to say that all the Cover.
nor had authority to do was to ap.
poin. notaries public and pardon con
victs.

Railroad Accident in 1871.

The New York Times has CON-
piled an interesting statement of the
number OF railroad accidents in the
United States during the past year,
and the results Of the same. 1t is
proper to state that it is made from
newspaper reports, and is, therefore,
not as full as if made from official
documents. From it we learn that
there occurred in 1871 one hundred
and seven accidents" in which 191
persons were killed and 254 wounded.
OF the accidents, 40 were collisions,
in which 108 persons were killed and
21l wounded. The foremost place
in the record Of slaughter is occupied
by the Revere disaster, on August
&c; the New Hamburg tragedy o.
FEBRUARY 6, follows in the magnitude
ofits results; while the train thrown
from the bridge at Harpeth River
Tenn, and the collision at Edwards
vile, ILL.,, take tho third and fourth
places. These four events alone &C
count tor 70 deaths and 80 wounded
while if the accident at Bangor, Me,
on August 0, be added to the list
five disasters will be found to ae
count for 81 killed. and 14s wounded

SALT AND ASHES FOR HORSES
Those keeping horses should, twice a
week, throw in handful OF ashes
and salt. Mix them by putting in
three parts of salt to one of ashes.-
Horses relish this, and it will keep
%heir hair soft and fine. 1t will pre-.
vent bots, collie, etc. A little ground
sulphur mixed with salt and ashes,
and given once in three weeks, is al.
SO beneficial. All domestic animals
will thus be benefited.

A correspondent writing from

A correspondent writing from
Rome, says:
Although not personally attached
to the ex-Emperor Napoleon III,
the Pope would not be satisfied at a
restoration of the Bonaparte dynas-
ty, in the expectation that his own
restoration would follow as oonse-
quence. Such an event is on the
cards, as few persons here believe
that the Republic will be long-lived in
France, and the race for power must
finish with struggle between the
Orleanists and the Bonapartists
No doubt Napoleon III. is biding his
time, and promise Oh his part to
restore the Pope's temporal throne
would enlist the clerical party In
France in his favor.

THE DnAR IRisH MAIDEN.
BY JOHN r. EVANS.

Away, far away, in that green little
By the Ehannop's clear spray !: lives the
fair queen OF my land
And poor is her lot; with no gems IL she
Yet pure is the heart of my irish maiden.
Alb! /! well remember the nrst time met
her,
And years since have passed. yet ne'er
can forget her,
And many strange lands. since, my foot
steps have strayed on,
But none have met like my dear Irish
maiden.
When hunted, an outlaw, DER mountain
For striving the chains Of my country to
sever,
And when bound like fslon, and with
manacles laden,
My comfort and hope wss my true Irish
maiden.
When. banned from Green Erin, left
her In sorrow.
Well I knew our sad parting her young
heart would harrow,
Then I took . fond look on the hills had
played on.
And kissed the fair brow Of my dear Irish
maidons
And Oft since that time in my dreams I
behold her..
And think to my lone heart again / enfold
her,
And her sweet voice hear, but in tones
of upbraiding: s
Forgotten by thee y your fond irish
maiden.
Erfni oh. Erini rll aoon ro To seA thea.
Ertni sweet Er.n, we'll soon 20 to free
tn @;
For the day star Of hope shines bright and
10 laden
Wsh blessings for thee, and my dear Irish
maiden.

Lo ,gevity is an inherited quality,
as much as the make of the body, or
the size of the brain. Sir William
Herschel, the greatest astronomer of
his age, live eighty-four years; his
son, Sir John, died at seveniy-nine !;
his aunt Caroline, was ninety EIGHT
many similar cases can be given
where persons of the connection
lived TO great old age. But de-
cendents of long-lived persons
should only calculate on living %
long themselves BY living pretty
much in the same manner; regularly,
temperately, equibly; cultivating
especially, serenity Of mind, deliber.
alton of thought and action avoid
ing as much as possible shocks and
bodily exposure to hardships and to
all extremes. The tortoise overlook
the hare long,before the close OF tho
day; prudent, thoughtful, careful
people, who hold on the equible
tenor of their way, far outlive the
quick the thoughtless, the nervous
and unsteady. But longevity may
be cultivated by . life Of steady IN
dustry, of habitual temperance and
regularity, combined with the con.
scientious performance of all the
duties of life.

aFn
In certain quarters, and we mean
by that, chiefly from those opposed
to tho denomination of Genl Grant,
there has como, at this time, per-
sistent effort to push the policy lin
iting the presidency to one term.
Various views and honest differences
Of opinion have been entertained up
on this question from the very for
nation OF the government down to
the present time, and while it is true
that it is proper to urge it any time,
considering from where it enanates,
We cannot but regard it as urged
now, or perhaps rather prompted, by
opposition to Grant. Especially do
We think so since it seems to MS there
are other and vastly more important
matters calling for the earnest and
etudious attention of our people at
this time. Besides we can see no
good reason why, if the Presidency
is to be limited to one term, some
similar restriction should not be
placed upon the number of terms Of
3 u. 8. Senators. We are led the
more to this view when we learn, as
we have in some recent instances
that Senators of many years expe
rienoe sometimes not only perform
the duties of Senator, but essay te
dictate to the President what ht
shall do.
