AN INVESTIGATION BY CONGRESS.
A few days since the official statement of
the financial condition of the Central Pa
cific company was published in the Bul1e-
tin. The report being for the fiscal year
ending June Both, 1872, and not embracing
the liabilities of the Vallejo system of rail
roads, the original Sacramento Valley rail
road, nor the Oakland & Almeda roads and
ferries, does not present fair showing of
the present indebtedness of the company.
The following table is an exhibit of the
known liabilities of the company, and is
the result of careful inquiry made during
the last few days among financial men well

These are the best known OF all the companies
represented In Rutland, and since we have
represented them they hare paid more money to
the citizens of Rutland and vicinity than all

The Fool and the Highwayman.

Never heard of Redmond O'Hanlon,
the Irish highway robber? Well that
surprising Your English Turpins and
French Duvals couldn't hold candle
to our highwayman. But for all his
shrewdness he met his match once, and
I'll tell you how it was:
Redmond was fine, strapping, gen.
tlemanly fellow, and devoted admir-
er of the ladies-as where is the Irish
man that is not-and what is more, a
friend to the poor-as you will admit
when you know that his demands for
cash were only made on persons who
could we'll afford to meet them, and
that he delighted in forcing contribu-
tions from those who had the name of
being hard landlords to their tenants.
There was one of this class whom
Redman never lost an opportunity of
taxing-for that was the polite name he
gave to his own robberies. Every
quarter day, this gentleman or of one his
servants-sometimes more than one
used to take journey of six or seven
miles to collect his rents, and as regu-
lar as clock work there was Redmond
OHanlon, with some stout companions
if necessary, to waylay the collector as
he returned home. Every means was
used to elude him, but to no purpose.
He had spies everywhere and contrived
to have the exact informatio he needed
in advance.
So one quarter-day, when the gen.
tleman's servants asked him abont 60
ing for the rents, he swore at O'Han-
Ion, and said he didn't see tho use of
collecting money to hand it over to him.
Now this gentleman had on his es-
tate boy called Jerry the fool" who
had the run of the house and made fun
for the family. He had q great con-
ceit for himself and when he heard
what his master said, he Immediately
asked to be allowed to 60 after the
rents for once, and he declared that
he would know the way to bring them
straight home. OF fcourse he was only
laughed at; but when he represented
that no harm could come from trying
as he couldn't do worse than those who

- Never be sorry for any generous
thing that you ever did, even if it was
betrayed. Never be sorry that you was
magnanimous, if the man was mean
afterward. Never be sorry that you
gave. 1t was right for you to give, even
If you were imposed upon. You can
not afford to keep on the safe side by
being mean. You had better, many
time in your life, for the sake of keep
ing yourself in the practice of benevo-
lence, do things that are questionable
rather than Judge so narrowly that YOU
will always be OH the side of cold caicu
lation. Give your heart some headway
and in the long run it will be safer for
you.

THE MARCH OF THE YEARS.

lfaInp, tramp, tramp,
'Tis the deep low tread of the years;
All. who may tell of the load they bear,
Whether of sorrow, grief or care,
Whether of joys or tears,
Or whether life's clouds will roll away
Meath the touch of the coming years7
Tramp. Tramp, Tramp.
Down the mystical vale of time;
And shadowy spectres, old and gray.
That stand and wall in the years swift way,
Step into their places in the line;
And whether to bring us Joy or tears,
The years give never sign.
Tramp, Tramp, Tramp,
How swiftly they come and gol
We feel but touch of the Summers breath
Ere its roses wither and fall in death,
And white lies the Winters snow;
Then vainly we sigh DER Hopes bright
dreams
That have gone with the long ago.
Tramp, Tramp, Tramp, .
Like shadowy forms of the night,
We see them coming-a long, dim line
Controlled and moved by hand of Time;
And we tremble and shrek in fright,
For we know not whether they bring lifes
clouds,
Or whether they bring the light.
For the father has willed it thus.
That mortals never may know
Whether there lies in the future years
grave of hope to be wet with tears.
A palace of Joy or woe;
Lest feet should falter and hearts grow faint,
He knew it was better so.

LIGHT.

The night has thousand eyes,
And the day but one,
Yet the light of the bright world dies
With the dying sun.
The mind has q thousand eyes,
And my heart but one,
Yet the light of a whole life dies
When life is done.

PUr THE BRIGHT SIDE Our.-Like
most garments, and most carpets, every
thing in life has a right side and q
wrong side. You can take any joy, and
boy turning it around, find troubles on
the other side; or you may take the
greater trouble, and by turning it round
find Joy on the other side. Tie gloom
lest mountain never casts shadow on
both sides at once, nor does the great
est of life's calamities.

The "OFr YEAR."-The "off year
explanation of the Republican disaster
is not thick enough. In Wisconsin
1867 was an "off year," when the Re-
publicans had nearly 5000 majority;
1869 was an "off year" when the Re-
publicans had 1891 majority. So the
loss of the State this year cannot be
put down to the " off year." ..

The MYSTERIOUS LAMp.-At distance
from the earth which it is utterly impos-
sible to convey any idea of, there is an
other globe; and if the optical and
astronomical calculations be correct, the
sun which lights and warns that globe
for it has particular sun of its own)
gives days of different colors. There
are green days, red days, blue days
yellow days, corresponding to Sir Isaac
Newtons seven prismatic colors. Now,
all objects visible on these several days
will Of course vary according to the
particular color. The yellow day, from
our experience of this color, must be
most drcary and miserable; for though
yellow is all very we'll in it's way, mixed
up with other colors, helping, like a
thunder-cloud, to enhance the beauty of
the distant sky, yet, when everything is
yellow, then we discover it's peculiar
effect on our visual organs. A simple
and inexpensive experiment, and one
that is often shown, illustrates the ef-
feet of yellow day Spirits of wine
poured on teaspoonlul of common
salt in vial, well shaken, and then put
eituer OH II lalilp-cOttOn or tow, and lI-
nited, will burn with peculiar colored
flame, giving out purely yellow rays.
This mysterious effect changes the ap-
pearance of all earthly objects. Coral
lips become of n livid hue; rosy cheeks
turn ghastly pale; red cap ribbons be-
come black; in fact, everything appears
different to what it does to the white
light that we are familiar with; and of
all thinks the human face undergoes
the greatest change. Very young chill
dren should not be shown this expert
ment; for though there will be laughing
lips and dazzling eyes, yet they are of
such an unearthly color, that old
friends appear with new faces, and a
child would scarcely know it's own
mamma.

COMPOSITION ON THE WHEELBoRRow.-
The Dauburv Ners man says: If you
have occasion to use q wbeelborrow,
leave it, when you are through with it,
in front of the house, with the handles
toward the door. A wheelborrow is
the most complicated thing to fall over
on earth. A man will fall over one when
he never thinks of falling over anything
else. He never knows when he has got
through falling over it, either, for it
will tangle his legs and arms, turn over
with him, rear up in front of him, and
just as he pauses in his profanity to
congratulate himself, it takes a new
turn and scoops more skin off of him.
and he commences to revolve anew and
bump himself on fresh places. A man
never ceases to fall over a wheelborrow
until it falls completely upon its back,
or springs up against something it can
not upset. 1t is the most inoffensive
looking object there is, but it is as dan
gerous as locomotive, and no man is
secure with one unless he has tight
hold on the handles and is sitting down
on something. A wheelborrow has its
uses, without doubt, but in its leisure
moments, it is the great blighting curse
on true dignity.

A NOVEL NUs10AL rA0hr1B.

The teachers Of pianos have ressoutd
hold O convention to devise means -
continue the existence Of thsir aneisAt
and honorable calling. It II in ndan0sks
Human ingenuity has perfected mas
chine-only think Of it-a machine thae
may usurp their places. This machine
makes it possible for any one with o.
pacity enough to turn grindstone u
perform the most difficult music written
for the piano. Away then nust go the
tedious, expensive and soul piercing
process Of taking lessons on u pia16s
The girls and young ladies Of the futsrs
may spend the weays hours Of piano
practice in any better way they please
certain that no mental efforts and no
mechanical difficulty will harass theus
when they are called on to enteftain
company with the piano. The machines
too, will bring joy to that unfortunate
class that in spite Of industrious attenE
ton to instruction and practice fndf
unsatisfactory results. In fact there IL
no premium on talent, or even on gens
ius, in the coming machine piano disf
pensation. The machine is not myth.
We saw it only yesterday. It has
just been imported from Paris, and was
attached to the piano only the day be-
fore. 1t played selections from " Bar
Der of Seville" Faust" " Tannhaus-
er," and other operas. Indeed, its
capacity is unlimited. It can play on
sight any piece Of music, and its play
ing cannot be distinguished from that
of a living player. It is capable also Of
playing on the organ, or any keys sim,
liar to those of the piano. Another
instrument of the same kind, the only
one in the city, has already taken the
place of an organist at one OF our
churches. .e .,4
The machine is a marvel of compli-
cation. It occupies position in front
of the keyboard of the piano, and ex-
tends from the keyboard to the floor
Directly over the keys of the piano are
keys corresponding to the piano keys.
These are fingers of the machine. They
are as many as the keys, and thus the
advantage over the human player. How
these fingers are made to work is the
problem, which we can only family in
dicate in this description. The top Of
the machine is about one foot in width,
It has in the center two rollers, which
are moved by q crank. These carry
the music through, as it passes, the pi-
ano plays it. The music is on paper,
but it is not written. The notes are
made by cutting square holes through
paper. As these holes pass certain
point they allow hammer to pass
through and the stroke Of that hammer
is communicated to its own key in the
piano. Each key has it's hammer. It
only requires that these holes be cut at
proper intervals to strike any number
Of keys at any given series. The ma
chine has pedal arrangement whieh
connects with the piano and enables
the player to have the effects produced:
by an ordinary player. It has also an
arrangement to change the force Of the
touch. It is French instrument and
has been known but short time. The'
manufacturer has orders beyond his
capacity to fill. The two machines il
this city will doubtless attract much at
tention. Cincinnati Gazette. ~s@o9oTE

ried ladies and successful teachers. On
Wednesday evening, q number of citi-

proceeded to the residence of Mrs. Car
penter and gave her q serenade. In
response to call she made her ap-

speech of thanks, and invited the party
to partake of lunch in her dinins-room.
