LIES BEST HERO.

In lIfr's great battle lor success,
Who are our noblest men
Those only whom mankind call great,
And praise with tongue aud llcn7
Who never suffer for q cause
But meet success by chance.
As on calm seas and peaceful aells
In sunshine they advance?
/ count hun noblcr, greater far,
Who labors to the end,
A martyr to the caIlse he deems
His duty to defend;
Who, true to progress, human rights,
j. ferenlusi in the field,
Delies lhe fates, ne'er sheds . tear,
Tan die. but never yield:
And who, regardless of renown,
Can die most truly brave,
Well knowing that his fate will be
To I'LL o nameless grave.
Lifr's grandest hero then is he
Who, where his lot is east.
Not only nobig wins the field,
But holds it to the last!

Curious Facts.

Nec'fp the following from late number
of the Scientific Journal:
The creeping Of rails has attr ctesI some
attention Of late, and while we slo not at
tempt to explain IT. We offer a point OIL tile
fact, that OH lines running north and south,
the western rail .screeps'' faster than the
eastern rail. That is, this strange movement
OF the rails towards the south is more mark
ed in one rail than i'm the other on the same
track. Furthermore, it has been noticed
that on such a line the eastern rail wears ont
the fastest. Borh of these points, we think.
can be explained by the motion of the earth
as it turns from the west towards the east.
Motion tends to overcome gravitation. A
ball thrown from the hand is supported In
the air in its flight. A rapid skater flies oyer
the thin ice without breaking through, and a
train at high speed has been known TO leap
broken priigc uui,arrr,rd.
Momentum oycrcomes grayitation, and the
greater the speed the less the weight on the
rails. Everything that has free motion is af-.
tecttd by the motion of the earth. Every
pendulum that swings is dragged round after
the whrling globe; every wind that blows.
ard every tide that moves, feels the influence
and our train going North aud South is
pulled over toward the East and naturally
presses the eastern rail most heavily. The
western rail. beiug relieved Of its share OF the
weight "creeps more freely and more quick,
". It's also noticed that the wheels that
run on The eastern rails wear out first, and
we can but think that this earth motion is The
true cause.
The practical side of thisis that the eastern
rail and wheels should be the stronger. 81

| Readers who take an interest in religious
affairs win feccollect the Cheney case in
Chicago in the spring and summer OF 1871.
The Rev. Charles b. Cheney. a popular
Eriscopaian clergyman, Rector of Christ
Church, on the South Side, who was in the
habit of omitting the word 'sregenerate" In
the administration OF the Off ,e OF in fant
baptism, got into conflict with Bishop
Whitehouse. OF Illinois. on the subject. Re-
fusing to use the word. he was cited to APP
pear and stand his ground before an ecc!esi-
astical tribunal, which Of course decldtd
against the rector and tor the bishop. Mr.
Cheney was removed from his rectorship,
but the whole vestrY and congregations with
a couple ofexcepticns, stood by HIM and de-
fled the bishop. Thereupon the two ortho-
dox members and tlie bishor went to law 10

The HeadIess woman Of Evans

Seven years ago the headless body of Il
woman was found in a vacant lot in Chestnut
street, Evansville, Ind. It was much decoin-
posed, and had probably lain for at least two
months buried in the shallow grave where it
was found. The post mortem examination
developed nc facts as to the woman's identi-
.ty or the circumstances of her death, except
that a negro was found who testified that he
had buried the body at the request of two
men, who compelled him to carry it away
and place it where it was discovered. The
man were completely disguised, the body
unidentified, aud the whole matter renlained
a mystery until Thursday last. when a man

All the telegraphic operators are down
With the fever, and we are consequently
unable to obtain the press dispatches;
and finally the mails from many localities
have been stopped, and our exchange
list thereby greatly reduced. Under
these circumstances, we can do nothing
more than furnish the local news of this
city, and the Times Of late has appeared
more like a neurological journal than a

do nothing more than find a man in town

A newspaper should know no fear while
there is a human life it can chain to its
