a blooming young widow in Darby who
used to live next door to Mr.. Smith. who
was a widowcr. who was a timid man.
whose eyes bcamed blandly through his
spcctacles. The widow had kindness
for Smith. and he reciprocated it-bus hs
had barely enough courage to carry on tho
campaign. So a, last the widow pretend
ed TO be terribly afraid OF thunder and
lightning and whenever she saw a gust
coming up. she usci to smooth her hair
and rush into Smiths house. .-
Then when she heard p, al Of thunder,
she would scream and rush up and throw
her arms around the neck of the mild-eyed
Smith. and implore him 30 protect her. and
Smith always looked embarrassed and aux-
ious, and said he would Thon she would
faint, and Smith would feel half glad and
half sorry. Abou. six thunder storms
settled the business, and now she is MIRA.
Smith-he is only sorry that her sppre-
tensions of lightning were not realised. -
He says that if there ever Was woman
who ought to have been torn to pieces BY
electricity. it was that widow. She has
thunder storms everyday now in Smith'a
house. ani it is lively aud vigorous fos

New Shingle Machine.

The Scientific American of Jan |
thus describes "A new shingle machine
recently patented by Elisha Hughes,
of Gowie, Canada:
A large circle saw is mounted on any
suitable frame. A carriage on said
frame is adapted to receive the block to
be quartered near the center, and carry
it up to and away from the saw, the
said block setting endwise and being
cut to the center by the saw each time
it is moved up. A horizontally revolv-
ing turn-t table is mounted on the top ola
vertical shaft, which is stepped in the
end of short arm of lever, and sup
ported III bearings of the frame, so that
it can raise and fall, being lifted by the
said lever, and falling back 10y its gray
ity. The carriage is provided with a
large hole III it's center-that is, direct
" over the turn table when it stops at
the end of the movement away from
the saw-and the block to be sawed Is
placed over said hole, so that, after
each cut and the return of the carriage,
the attendant can raise the block on
the turntable by forcing the outer end
of the lever down by his foot, and
then turn the block readily by hand to
adjust it for the next cut, after which it
is let down on the carriage and moved
up to the saw. A forked leveris pivot.
ed to standards on the side of the ear

with dogs or pins for entering the block
to hold it, 10y the pressing of the free
end of the lever down, which the attend
ant does as he pushes the carriage to
the saw. These points or dogs are so
arranged on the lever that III cutting to
thecenter of the block they pass slightly
beyond the cutting edge of the saw,
enabling them to engage and hold the
last two bolts of block

Died Suddeniy of Heart Disease.

How common is the announcement.
Thousands are suddenly swept into
eternity by this fatal malady This
disease generally has its origin in i'm
pure blood filled with irritating, poi
sonous materials, which, circulating
through the heart irritate its delicate
tissues. Though the irritation may at
first he only slight, producing little
palpitation or irregular action, yet by
and by the disease becomes firmly
seated. and inflammation, or hypertro-
ply, or thickening of the lining men,
brane or of the valves, is produced.
How wise to give early attention to q
case of this kind. Unnatural throb-
bing or pain in the region OF the heart
should admonish one that all is not
right, and if you would preserve it
from further disease, You must help it
TO beat rightly by the use of such a
remedy as shall remove the cause of
the trouble. Use DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery before the disease
has become too seated, and It viii, by
its great blood purifying and wonder
full regulating properties, effect per-
feet cure. 1t contains medicinal prop
critics which act specifically upon the
tissues of the heart, bringing about a
healthy action. Sold by all first class
Druggists. 5Sl.

to meet at Philadelphia, decided that
each State shall send delegates to the
Convention double the number of Sen

each organized Territory, including
the Territory of the District of Column

In their call the committee, remind
the country that the promises of
the Union Republican Convention
of 1865 have been fulfilled. The
states lately in rebellion have been
restored to their former relations to
the Government the laws of the coun-
try have been faithfully executed ; the
public faith has been preserved; the
national credit firmly established :;
Governmental economy has been Illus
trated by a reduction Mt the same time
of the public debt and of taxation;
the funding of the national debt ut Il
lower rate of interest has been success
fully inaugurated, the rights of citizens
have been protected; and immigration
encouraged 10y liberal provisions (;
the defenders of the Union have been
gratefully remembered; the rights and
interests of labor recognized; laws have
been enacted and are being enforced
for the protection of persons and prop
ertv of all sections; equal suffrage has
been engrafted on the national constl-
tuition, the privileged immunues OF
American citizenship have become a
part OF the organic law; a liberal poll
CIV has been adopted toward all who en-
gagged in the rebellion; complications
in our foreign relations have been adj
iusted in the interest of peace through
out the world, while the national honor
has been maintained; corruption has
been exposed; offenders punished, re
sponsibility enforced, and safeguards
established.

An Important Project.

The steam ferry which it is proposed
to establish across the Straits of Dover,
between the potts of Dover cad Calais.
has received the approval If board
OF commissioners appointed by the
French Assembly to EXAMINE into the
matter. The plan includes the con-
struction of three large steamers, with
disconnected padIle-wheels, each wheel
being driven by an engine of seven
hundred nominal horsepower, but
capable of working up to thirty five
hundred horse power. The dimenions
of the vessels are TO be as follows
four hundred and fifty feet long, fifty
feet broad at the water line, thirty two
feet deep and thirteen feet three inches
draught of water, with a
displacement of four thousand TONS
The paddle-wheels are,to be fifty feet in
diameter, with an immersion of ten
feet. The cost of the three vessels is
estimated at two million dollars. On
the lower deck of each oil the Sc steam
ers double line of rails is to be laid,
with capacity of accommodating thir-
ty railway carriages. The rate of speed,
it is estimated, will be eighteen knots
an hour, and it is hoped that the pas
sage across the straits can be made in
seventy minutes in fine, and ninety
minutes in foul weather. By running
two steamers, and keeping one in re-
serve, six passages, it is believed, can
lie made daily, and thus 1850
passengers and 2,640 tons of goods can
DE carried across every day, or 97S, 200
passengers and 963, 800 tons of goods
during each year. The projectors of
this enterprise ask the French govern
ment for authority to construct large
dock and warehouse at Calais. The
French government is also asked to
build bridge to connect this dock
with the shore and the north of France
railway, and to conclude contract for
the transportation of the mails for
twenty years, at an annual subsidy of
100000. The French government is
further requested to use its good offices
to induce the English government to
construct a suitable dock and ware
house at Dover.
