.sn,,a find ,,rsat hed ilis list about fshs moment
that .hIa fatf,er made the announcement. Inc
Eaton (Obio) telegraph tells the following
incident, which may be taken as parailei "
that of the Buckminsters
"On wednesday morning last at O'Clock
General John Quinn breathed his last. but
n few minutes after that Joseph Deems VINO
also died on the 14th, aroused from MS sfeep
and said TO his son John, who sat by bis
side: John, General Quinn is dead 10
This Jonn said: Il reckon you are mistaken,
father YOU have been dreaming. guess
General Quinn is not dead. He Is not even
sick. but goes down town regularly every
day for his MALL Yes said Father Deem
sIknow he il dead Aud he had scarcely
finished speaking when Benjamin Holman
walked in, about o'clock, as was bis habit,
and said 10 them:
"1General Quinn is deadl' What Is
strange about it is that Father Deem did NOT
know OF General Quinn's illness, and In oil
probability bad not heard his name men-
toned. Was it the freed spirit of General
Quinn, on its first mission out OF the BODY,
to carry the news to m old and dear friend
also near the portals Of death? Or was 1t n
wider vision, q supernatural sight given 10
Father Deem, 90 that. as he stood on the con-
fines of the unseen world, he took in the
scope of his sight things unseen to the NATL
raj eve: Did be see with the freed spirits
zoe. However this may be answered, it IS
full of interest to the inquiring mind"

THE MINISTRY QUESTION NOT YET sETTLhn.
LONDON, March 10. The report that Dis
rocli refused the premiership is untrue. Tx
simply represented the dIiii'ul!lcs he Wo'No
have TO confront. Lord Derby has arrived
from Paris, and has had 4 long conterenc;
with Dsiuc. Ii is probable DiSlacli will
accept the Office, finish the business of The
session hy June, and then dissolve PnrIi'i-
ment The Conservatives all over the coun-
try are confident OF the result OF the election.
The Economist says il Is rumorcd that Earl
Derby Yields 10 the request oi The ConecrF;-
tivcs to undertake the Formation OF CaDi-
net. The Spectator gives currency to the
same report. but Says Earl Derby is deter
mined to appeal to the country.
DisIacii waited Oh The Queen to-day, giving
her the reasons impciling him to decline
otlice. Earl Derby concurs with Disinell
that the Conservatives cannot accept the re-
spouSibility OF forming the Government ut
this time.
DERBY AND DISRAEIL Decline THE RESPONSE
EILTY, &C.
LONDON, March 15.-Earl Derby aDd Dis
raeIi have declined the responsibility Of FORM
ing u new Ministry, and nothing definite has
TRANSFERRED since this announcement.
1t is rumored that Lord Granville will be
premier, and Cardwell chancellor of en-
chcguer.
Mr. Gladstone has gone to the country Till
Monday.
1t is expected that Parliament will adj
journ from Monday to Thursday.
GLApsToNE's GOVERNMENT EXPECTED To RESUME
LONDON, March ia special to the New
York Herald says Gladstone is visiting the
Marquis Of Westminster ut Cliyeder, and the
Queen LETT London this evening for Wind

Therefore, if the ayearge life of steel
rail is only 20 years 10 iron railS), 1t IS as
cheap TO lay steel rails as to lay the best iron
rails at cost Of $500 per ton (SIG-69.0o
=G.05).
If tic life of the steel is 40 years (=10
iron lais), which is probably moderate es'
tiuate, saving OF 5000 per mile could be
made by laying steel, ercn II the best iron
rails uere alfred as a git.
II the life of steel is 90 years l. 10 iron
raiisl, an estimate which is more than JustI-
fed by the experience of the PENNSYLVANIA,
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Balt;-
more, and other railroads, and by long
series of experiments at home and abroad,
the saving effected by laying the whole road
in stccl would be sufficient to udd nearly :
per cent. toihe annual dividends on roaG
which could pay Der cent. with a track
of the best iron rails.
On roads with lighter traffic the saving
is still an important consideration. Ii, for
example. the life of MI iron rail is 10 years.
and steel rail will only wear out five iron
rails, the present wo!th Of the saving by the
Use OF steel is $l7.3I per ton, which makes
steel rails at Sll0 as cheap Us the best iron
rails would be at S5S.64 per ton.
The great increase of savingon curves or
grades in yards, and in other places where
the wear is SO great that the life Of the best
iron rails is two years or less, is shown in
the following table, which is computed at
the prices now ruling (sl10, per ton for best
steel. and SIG for best irou), allowing per
cent. compound interest.
The following table is meant to show the
nrcspnt worth of saving on lO0 tons (aD0ut
miie) of steel rails, taking the wear OF iron
rails at 2 years, l year, 6 months, and
months respectively, and Oh the different
suppositious that steel rail will equal 3, .,

AcRoBArIc FAEmSG.-A Danbury young
man. who was once clerk, lately went on Il
farm to work. The first night in bis new
position he was detailed to remove calf
from the apartment of its parent to another
shed, and while engaged, as thousands have
been before him, in showing the contrary
beast along, the mother reached under the
tails of his coat with her horns and suddenly
lifted him up against the roof of the build
ing with force that threatened to SKATER
every bone in his body. The first thing he
did on returning to earth was to rub himself,
the next thing was to throw up his place.
Lie said he didn't doubt that agriculture was
a noble pursuit, and that the farmer needed
an assistant in the discharge of his mutia-
rious duties, but he didn't believe the Crea-
tor designed him for making skyliShts III
cow-sheds. -Ddnbmy Ne,cS.
