The Boston TrarelLer announces the discovery
and practical application of fact Of much inter
est to manufacturers and all others who use sta
tionary steam-engnes. 1t has been found that
the waste steam from one engine can be used to
heat tie boiler OF another il it stands sufficiently
near, and this without requiring extra fuel, fire
men, or chimney5 The amount OF power thus
attained is equal if not superior to that Of the
engine from which the waste steam is received.
The heat Of the second boiler is obtained by
passing tic waste steam through its ilues and
is filed with volatile liquid mainly composed
Of the bisulphate Of carbon, which boils at 110
Fahrenheit, and at the temperature of exhaust
steam gives pressure in the boiler OF sixty-fye
pounds to the inch. The yapor formed in this
boiler is used to drive the second engine instead
Of steam and after being used is condensed
/ by cooling, pumped into the boiler again, and
used continually with small loss Two enginei
| arranged on this plan are now running at tn,
| Atlantic Works, in East Boston, and the powe
OF the yapor engine is proved by careful measure
| ment to be the greatest.

MOVIES PROM WASHINGTON.

There is little or no opposition to the renoh-
inaiion Of President Grant manifested outside
of the senate, and in that body Senator schurz
is the only member so decidedly hostile as to
cause any serious apprehension Gen schurz'
however is so violent in his opposition to the
Administration, that the opinion is general
among Republicans that he has ilreyocably DIS
solved his connection with the party and that he
may very soon be, with entire Justice, classed as
a Democrat A pain-spoken Senator from the
Northwest declares that Of the two Senators
from Missouri, Frank Blair is by odds the better
Republican.
The detection Of Mr.. Schur1 Is important
only because he will have some following among
the Germans in the large cities OF the Interior
The extent Of this may however be over estima-
ted, and when the Senator is seen to have dehni-
lively abandoned the principles which he has 80
long professed, his followers may abandon INN.
The proposed changes in the Civil Service
are beyond question, unpopular with the major
ity of Congress, though the cause is not entirely
that they will take away the patronage oil
Senators and Members, for many OF them have
long desired release from the unpleasant duties
of Office Agent The conviction OF many is that
the new plans proposed are impractieable, and
Quixotic and that they either will not he fairly
tried, or if tried they will speedily be abandoned.
Against this feeling, however, there is posi-
tive purpose on the part of The President to
fairly and thoroughly set the new reform on
foot, and give it an opportunity to display its
merits Ex-senator Cattel, one Of tie CommIs-
sioners and an exceedingly straightforward
business man, declares his firm conviction, first,
that Reform in the Civil Service was necessary,
and second, that the plan proposed will work
great improvement. While he is suspicious OF
changes which seem to affect the popular rights
he has the strongest faith in the system decided
upon By the Commission. lie has given much
thought and research to the subject
Secretary boutwell,, it is stated expresses
satisfaction with the proposed change, and de
cares that his conviction of its value increases
upon fuller investigation of its details, and III,
practical methods by Which it will operate
The Presidency not being an open question
the Vice Presidency is quietly discussed. 1t i
not to be denied that many complain warmly o
Mr. Colfaxs course, For long time, he sal
posi- ityely and decidedly that lie would not agai
take ctiice. This naturally caused the sugges
tion Of other uaIner and the growth Of othe
expectations But now. after SO strong pre-
tence of quitting the field he decides to re-ente
it. and his friends seem to expect all competitor
to modestly Withdraw.

Tr1nending Rankruptcy

The Northern Republicans are begin
ning to fear that the Southern States are
to be ruined hopelessly, financially, by
the carpet-baggers and their negro allies.
Thus the Pittsburg Dispatch leading
Republican journal in Western Pennsyl-
vania, says in is Issue of March 26;
"The State Auditor of Mississippi has
informed the Legislature now in session
that the taxation in that State must be
raised to more than double its present
rate in order to carry on the government.
In the face of this announcement, every
measure Of retrenchment which is pro
posed in the Legislature as promptly
rofed dolcn Jy the carpet baggers and
freedmen, who form the majority of that
body But it must not be forgotten that
the Southern negroes, who igHorantly
rote for all manner Of ertrarLgaRt meas
tres, as class, cannot under any cir
eumstauces be brought to see the pro-
priety of any taxation which affects
themselves Consequently when the
question of Reputation comes up in
Mississippi, as it Is certain to do, it will
be found that a great majority of the
freedmen viii vote for that method OF

An Enraged Father kiIIS n Negro
for Insulting Ills Daughter.

On last Tuesday week James Tenn
pie, farmer from McCracken county,
and formerly rector of the Episcopal
Church, shot a negro named John Smith,
aged about twenty. putting thirteen buck
shot in the back of the negro, who ran
about a hundred yards and fell, when
Temple went up to him, put the rnuzzle
of the gun at his head, aud discharging
the other barrel, blew his brains out
Temple was then arrested and tried at
Fad ueah on Friday aud Saturday. The
evidence shows that Smith had been EN-
ployed at Temples house, and, in kind
ling fires in his daughters room. took oc-
casion to use insulting language to them
This was told to Temple, who was
of nearly deaf, very nervous aud excitablt
temperament, and long almost a recluse
and coming suddenly upon Smith shor
him in an ungovernable impulse. He wa
held in five thousand dollars bail 10 an

Ancient Kentucky Document.

Under the old law in Kentucky felony
was punished by cropping the ear, and
sometimes by branding. OF course, when
a fellow was found going about with part
of his ear missing. it gave rise to suspi-
cions that he had been doing something
wrong. Occasionally, in those good old
times, a man would have an ear bitten
off or an eye gouged out in a little un-
pleasantness with some neighbor, and
then it would be necessary, in order that
the party so suffering should not be look
ed upon as a convicted felon, to be ready
on all occasions to produce such 4 GER
tifcate as the following, which was copi-
ed from the records of Campbell county,
at Alexandra, n few days since:
Campbell County Court, April term,
1900, Newport Upon the motion Of
Nathaniel Vice, It is ordered to be certi~
fed that it appears to the satisfaction Of
this court that he lost part Of his left
ear in the manner and at the time and
place following, to-wit: That be the
said Vice, and one Andrew Steel. of this
county. about the middle Of last month,
near Col. Squire Grants in this county,
got into a wrangle which soon produced
a fight, and that the said Steel did bite
off part Of the said Vices left ear, and
the same is ordered to be recorded.

TIE RAPE TRIAL.

Our correspondent writes, that on

after empaneling the regular panel and
failing to get more than one juryman,
Judge Boon ordered Sheriff Rennic to
summon one hundred men to appear on
Friday (yesterday) out of which it is
hoped jury will be obtained. The ex
citement is SO high aud general, however,
it is feared that jury can not be made
up. The general opinion is that Gun.
ningham, jackson and Coe, will all hang,
unless rescued by their friends and cou.
federates
