her love on some worthy object-myself,

who knew me as David Moss, attorney
and solicitor, but nearly always passed
somewhere in our rides her lover, whom
her father had told me was called Walter
Reveaux.
At such times Kate would bow and
smile, while he returned naughty nod,
which brought frightened, grieved looks
into Kate's fair face. Then an in
sane desire would seize me to jump out
of the carriage and give him the thrash
ing he deserved; but discretion being
the better part of valor, would, on re-
Election, remain seated, and by playful
badinage endeayor to coax back Kate's
smiles.

violence is being committed by

whites and Democrats. If white

all violence be put down Indeed!
We say let the particular violence
of which complaint is made be
put down." When it shall be
shown that the blacks have perpe-
trated a massacre upon white men,
we shall advise that they be
promptly arrested, tried, and, if
found guilty, hung by the neck
until they are dead. This is the
method we would adopt to put
down violence committed by black
men, and we would treat white men
guilty of the same crime in the

WASHINGTON, April 8, 1865.
DIR. FoRsHA-Sir: Before you start West,
can do no less than thank you again for
your excellent and successful treatment of
my son. He had been sick for many wee ks,
under the care of n medical gentleman OF
whom have high opinion, for his learn
ing. skill and experience, and yet he was
rot cured. His disease, suppose without
certainly knowing), was brought on by
overstraning, in artillery exercise, in very
hot weather, at West Point. When he
came into your hands, his breast bone (o1e
side at least was protuded some two inches
beyond its proper position, attended with
difficulty of breathing and frequent pains.
By the application OF your medicines, and
your personal practice, in less than week
the bones We're reduced to their proper po-
sition, the pains ceased, the breathing be-
came easy and regular, and, as far as can
judge. he is restored to his accustomed ro-
bust health and activity
Besides this within my own knowledge,
have heard of many instances of extraor-
binary cures effected by you, in cases of
very dangerous wounds.
NeIy respectfully,
Your obedient servant,

A New System TO Prevent Railroad
Accidents.

Accidents.
On the English railways system
has been devised for the proven
ton of accidents by collisions
which might with advantage be
adopted upon American lines. For
a long while it has been customary
on the English roads to allow a
certain number of minutes to elapse
after a train passed any station or
. other point, whereat was stationed
a servant of the company, before
another train was allowed to pass
the same place Even with this
precaution, owing to the irregular
intervals between such safety points
accidents frequently occurred, swift
passenger trains overtaking slow
goods trains, or two trains meet
ing under full Roadway, with disas
trous results. To obviate this
irregularity, the block system was
introduced, which, theoretically at
least, absolutely prevents accidents
of this sort The main principles
Of the system consists in dividing
the line into suitable lengths-va
rying according to the number of
trains passing daily between termi
nj. and the character of the traffic
each of which is styled a block
section,' and allowing no train to
enter upon section until the pre-
ceding train has passed from off it.
At the beginning of each section
a signal man is stationed, and from
the cabin which he sits a lever de-
ponds across the track. While the
line is clear to the beginning of the
next section, this lever is raised,
but if train approaches tie sta
ton before that preceding it. has
left the block the lever is dropped
and the engineer is compelled to
halt until the track is clear. The
cabins are of course connected by
telegraph, set of simple signals
being used 10 convey the necessary
information from one station to
another On the Caledonian rail
way an Improvement on the system
has been recently introduced, the
change being that the lever ordi
narily remains across the track,
being raised only when train is
approaching, and after signals have
been received stating that the block
ahead is clear. It will be perceiv
ed that by this system clear space
of at least one block section is
maintained at all times upon the
road. and that if the signal men
attend properly to their duties
accident by collision is impossible
It will further be perceived that
the constant interchange of signals
between the stations keeps the
men down to their work-a lapse
from duty at one station being al
most Immediately discovered at the
station next adjoining it, up or
down the line -Philadelphia Press.
