Webster on the subject of "The Chris

hath my commandments and keepeth
them, he it is that lovetl me, and he
that loveth me shall be loved of MY
Father and | will love him, and will
manifest myself unto him. In which
he argaes that if man has his COM
mandments and kcepeth them he is a
christian, and he who does not have and
keep them is not christian. Does
Bro. Webster keep them? l ask this

before the adjournment of the last con
gress, bill was passed increasing. the

sort ct retrospective character which
gave to each member handsome sum
by way Of "b;sck pay Tie papers
generally have criti:Ised this proceed
ing very severely. Some Of the men,.
bcrs refused at the irst to receive it,
and others who did receive it have
since distributed It tc benevolent pur-
poses. Very little Of such distribution,
however, was made until after much
had been said by Tie papers against
the action Of congress in making the
appropriation. These benefactiGns,
under the circumstances, remind us of
a certain action on the part of one
Snyder, who lived a little east of Il
place called Mount Airy, then in Wythe
county, Virginia. Snyder was aquict,
good sort of man, but subject to fits
Of arrangement orr insanity. during
which he usually imagined himself to
bc the ruler Of the uptverse. and would
often proceed TO hold the dav of judy
mcnt, and pass sentence upon his neigh
bors according to his own likes and
dislikes. He was the owner of little
country mill for grinding corn: two Of
his nei-hbors, John and Jake Fulwid-
er, had in partnership a mill also. Be-
tween these and Snyder there never
was too much good feeling, thus verify
inc the old adage. s'Two of trade
can never agree. one day when Snv-
der was a little more crazy than usual
and particularly mad at the Fulwilders,
he pcrched himseIthlpon some cleva-
ton and proceeded. as he said, to hold
the day of Judgment. He first tried
the Fulwilders, anafcpnvictci them of
taking too much toll By their own con-

Hoe Does L'yAs Engine Drap a
Heacy*7rain?
By PROF. r.. d. BUTLER.

The first locomotive was patented
twenty years ago. Driving only one
car, if lightly loaded it did very we'll
but when the load it drew was heavier
than its own weight, its wheels would
not bite that is. they would turn
round and round without advancing.
Hence cow-catcher was needed Jehtud
to guard against cattle running into it
in the rear. II seemed at first impos-
sible to make less weight move a
greater on an up grade and, for -
years atterward, no one invented an
engine able to draw three times its own
weight. At the present day, however,
locomotives sweep along with trains
more ponderous by 15 or 20 times than
they are themselves. One means of
gaining this vast Increase of power for
the locomotive, was by diri1iing the
load 1t was found, that an engine
pcwerleSs to stir FIVE times its weight
of freight when concentrated in one
car, could readily draw it when distrib-
utcd in a dozen cars loosely shackled
together. 1t was. heavier than each
single car; and it had overcome the
inertia of each one, a moment before
it encountered the5inertia Of another
1t was thus more than q match for
each car taken sin@ly; and, pulling
them successively,@it drew after Il e
train as long as 4 comet, and tic far
ther it ran the more strength it had to
run further. Here was tie story of
little David over AGAIN. crdirarily
the strip'iny's weight, as he told TO-
liath, WIS one hundred and twenty but
wheneveS he cot mad lie 1ceiyhed q ton.
Moreover, the engine forced the mo-
mentum acquired by every car it had
started, to swell It's own potency In
overcoming the resistance OF all that
remained still motibnlcss
"This railroad achievement (making
a light engine draw heavy train), if
not so common would seem miraculous
and it is analogous to All expedient for
securing a farm which is equally simple
and equally eficacious. 1t is this ::

every acre you improve adds to your
paving power, as the headway Of every

gy Of the locomotive
