A San Francisco newspaper gives the fol-
lowing account of an invention on which q
young mechanic of that city has applied for
a patent. The idea is to turn electricity to
the purpose of motor for railway trains,
I" The principle is the construction OF driving
wheels OF enormous electromagnetic, which
diverge from the center in the same form as
the spokes of an ordinary wheel, the poles of
each magnet terminating with the outer cir
conference.
"The electric circuit is complete as the
magnet impinges upon the steel rails of the
track. AS the poles of each mpgnet forming
the driving-wheel approach the track, an
enormous magnetic attraction is exerted, and
as they pass the center, or perpendicular
point of the magnet upon the track, the cur
rent is cut off from each particular magnet
and the attraction abated.
''By the multiplication of driving-wheels of
this description, the inventor expects to
acquire any degree of power requisite, and
accomplish any rate of speed at which rail-
road car is capable of travelling, with no pos
sible danger of the locomotives leaving the
track. In place of the cumbersome steam
boiler and tender loaded with coal, the loco
motive will carry magnetic battery of i'm
mense power"

sailing vessels crowd the ports of the United

foreign voyage, are apt to come back in ballast.
A similar state of affairs exists on the Con-

the world over.

| The Orangeburg, sc. Free Citizen, a Republi-
| can newspaper, gives IN account of the manner
in which the citizens of that county have been
pillaged by the thieves, who rule in county as
well as State affairs in South Carolina. Not
| only has the county treasury been robbed out
right of about S24, 900 by its custodiaps but
besides this, creditors have been compelled
to submit to all sorts of illegal shaves in order
to get their bills paid. A poor school
teacher with small claim, on applying to
the County Treasurer, would be told there
was no money in the treasury, and in order
to get anything he would have to sell his bill
to outside parties, who were in collision with
the officials, for about half its value. The late
county treasurer, an ignorant colored man, is
now in Jail; but the person WHO be says prof
tied the most from his dishonesty is Senator
in Columbia, still engaged in making laws
In many counties in South Carolina the sys-
tenn of managing the public affairs has been
very much tie same as that adopted in
Orangeburg.
The population of Paris, numbering about
100000 is said to consume about $4,000, 900
gallons of wine, nearly 1000, 900 gallons of al
cohol and alcoholic liquors, SOC, 900 gallons of
cider, and 6, 100000 gallons of beer - some
twenty-eight gallons of wine, beer and spirits
a year for each Of the inhabitants, including
women and children.

The jewels of the crown-of France-were
deposited for safe-keeping in ship-of-war off
the coast They have just been turned into
the custody of the treasury They are valued
at 70, 300, 26O francs and one centime. The
one centime comes in very we'll; it is for the
form.) The crown itself, consisting of 52O6
diamonds, LAG comedians and 50 sapphires,
and weig hing 1872 karats, is estimated at
IA CSC, 5O4 francs 50 confines.
There are some other little accessories to
the batch. At Waterloo Napoleon l, who
always carried on his person large emerald
belonging to the crown collection, to use in
case of need, lost it upon the field of battle.
Strange chance: it was picked up by Prus-
sian soldier, and has occupied prominent
place among the crown diamonds of the
Kings of Prussia. Napoleon III put i! on
the head Of the Emperor of Germany. .

detective on the Metropolitan Police force,
was yesterday apprehended and placed in
durance at the Central Station charged by
Special Officer James Smith with intimidating

secuted man. He will be arraigned before

screaming, persued by the infuriated wife,
