II appears that ex-senator Wade, Of Ohio,
thinks that the most serious blunder made by
the Rcpublicen party is the attempt to pass
the civil rights BILL While he entertains no
doubt that the bill is right in principle, yet it
was inezpcdient at this time because it
awakened all the preiudices against the ne
groes. and il passed would become inopera-
tive, and II carried out would, III Its applic;.-
ton and partial results, do more mischief than
good. II was this to some extent, IA the opin-
ion o. Nj. Wade, that excited the Western
and Southern people, and indaccd them 10 vote
against the Republican party. Tuey feared
MIXED schools, and it was this phase of the
question that excited all their prejudice. Mr..
Wade il in favor Of equal school facilities. but
not of mixed schools lie thought the at
tempt TO force the question world be disas-
trous to the school system, an1 the success Of
the Republican party in that one issue would
be d public calamity.

The Governor OF Virginia on the South and

estimates from the late elections Of the near

Il there IS any truth IN tee reported insanity
Of the Emperor OF Russia, the circumstance
may give rise to some apprehensions. The
Hereditary Grand Duke is well known to
have a strong antipathy to Prussia, and in
case Of a regency, it is not at all improbable
that the policy Of Russia will be such es to
encourage France to renewed hostiiities with
Germany. Whether true or not, the report
of tie Emperor's illness painfully reminds us
OF the slight basis upon which the peace Of
Europe rests.
Az Alphonsist writes a letter to the London
G,obe in reference to the journey Of Marshal
Bazaine to Madrid. lie says that years ago
Bazaine served for a long time under Isabella
and reached the rank Of colonel in the Span
ish army so that he is familiar not only with
the language but tactics and discipline Of that
army. At this time he has two objects in
going to Spain. The first is to rejoin the fam
lily OF his wife, who are residents Of Madrid.
The second is to offer his services to Marshal
Scrrano, not as an edyenturer and soldier Of
fortune, but in his quality as colonel of
the Spanish army, anxious to aid the legiti-
mate government in restoring order to the
country of his adoption.

breast of the dam, was not more than
| two feet deep. AS he did so he graspcd
the other boat and bracing himself
! firmly against the rushing current, held
it poised IL few yards from the point,
where the foam crested waters leapcd
into the whirlpool below. At the same
instant his own boat shot like an arrow
over the dam. He had gained, how
ever, but n small advantage. 1t re-
quired his utmost strength to keep the
boat he had grasped from dragging him
down the fall.
Tho quickly formed purpose of Will
son, in thus springing into the water,
had been to drag the boat against the
current. If he were to let the boat
go he could easily save himself. But
not once did such thought enter his
own heart
Lie down close to the bottom" he
said, in quick, hoarse voice.
The terror-Stricken girls obeyed the
injunction instantly.
And now, with a cooiness that was
wonderful under all circumstances,
Wilson moved the boat several yards
away from the nearest shore until he
reached Il point where he knew the
water below the dam to be more eX-
panded and free from rocks. Then
throwing his body suddenly against the
boat, and running along until he was
within few feet of the dam, he sprang
upon it and passed over with it. A mo-
ment or two the light vessel, as it shot
into the air, stood poised, and then went
plunging down.
The fearful plunge was made in safe
ty The boat struck the seething wa
ters below, and glanced out from the
whirlpool, bearing it's living freight un
injured.
(Which was the coward % The
words reached the ears OF Logan, as he
gathered, with the rest of the company,
around Wilson and the pale, trembling
girls he had so heroically saved. Fair
lips asked the question. One maiden
had spoken to another, and III u louder
voice than she had intended.
"Not Edward Wilson," said Logan,
as he stepped forward, and graspcd
the hand of him he had wronged and
is the nobIcst and the bravcst !''
Wilson made an effort to reply. But
he was for some moments too much eX-
cited and exhausted to speak. At last,
he said,
only did what was right. May
| ever have courage for that while /
live
Aftcrward he remarked, when alone
with Logan:
cit required a far greater exercise
Of courage to forbear when you pro-
volled and insultcd me in the presence
of those who expected retaliation, than
it did to risk my life at the milldam.
There is moral horoism that few can
appreciate. And it will usually be
found that the morally brave man is
quickest to lose the sense of personal
danger when others are III peril

A remarkable paper has recently
been contributed to German magu-
zine by Professor Mohr, showing not
only that the sap does not freeze in
trees and plants which live through
hard winters, but also the reason why
it does not freeze. He says that
though it is true water, as We generally
see and understand it, freezes at thirty
two degrees, it does not do SO when its
particles are finely divided. Tropical
plants have large cells, and these arc
the ones in which the sap freezes, but
in plants with very small cells in which
the liquid particles are finely divied,
there is no freezing of the liquids until
after the structure has received injury
OF some sort. This is true, he says, of
insects and insect paupa, They never
frlcze but cut one apart, soon after
the humors solidify, and on thawing
life flies.

The Claims of Ohio.

The fact that Ohio men occupy such
prominent positions in Washington sug-
gests to Gen. James NJ. Comfy, the
witty editor of The ohio ,Statc journal,
little anecdote. In recent letter
from the national capital to his paper
he wrote:
"Now, since l think of it, how is
this? Charley Baldwin, of Mount
Vernon, was here last week, and he
wanted to see Sothern. At the ticket
office the treasurer said, very politely:
Sorry to disappoint you, sir; but the
house is crammed, and there is not even
standing room.' But my dear sir,
said Charley, I'm from ohio ? The
treasurer looked Mt him moment
in blank astonishment, and then called
out, Harry, take this gentleman to the
managers box and give him n front scat
he's from Ohio ! The idea that any
body from Ohio shouldn't be able to get
Il place anywhere was too thin"
Gen. Comfy adds that the object of
w. ID. Bickham's S late visit to Washing
ton was to have Worcestershire sauce
placed on the free list. Why not, since
W. ID. b. mixes the sauce with spark
ling Catawba and then pronounces the
mixture the best wine | ever drank,

Two. Men Lose Their Lives Through

II is wcll-known now that small poX
existed for some weeks in a store on
Center street, and committed great raw
ages ia the family circle of the store
keeper. Among the customers who
dealt at his store were two men, one a
well-to-do storekeepcr at Auburn, and
the other from Cressona. One day the
Auburn man came to this store, bought
% stock of goods, and in going out no.
ticcd that the doors and windows were
closed. He asked the reason of this
funeral appearance of things. why"
said some one, "don't you know that
they have small pox there % At this
intelligence the heart of the Auburn
man sank within him, he was at once
seized with pains, went home and died
of smallpox in three days. The fate
of the Cressona man was almost exactly
similar. He entered the same store.
was informed of the existence of small
pox there, was dreadfully frightened,
and went home to die of small pox.-

The power of prime movers is men8-
ured by horae power. Watt found that
the strongest London draft horses were
capable of doing work equivalent to
raising 80, 900 pounds one foot high per
minute, and he took this as the unit Of
power for the steam engine. The horse
is not usually capable of doing so great
a quantity Of work. Rankine gave 26,-
600 foot pounds rs the figure for a mean
of several experiments, and it is prob
able that 25,000 foot pounds is a fair
minutes average work for a good ami
nal. 1t would require five or six men
to do the work of strong horse.
Watts estimate has become, by general
consent among engineers, the standard
of power measurement for all purposes.
