. Wonderful Calculating Machine,

A correspondent of the Cincinnati

of a calculating cuiene, rs he calls 1t:
The inventor, Mr.. +, z. Warren a
matchmaker of this place, Three Oaks,

4 very difficult and curious piece Of

which he said was to work not only in
the first four rules of arithmetic, but was
also TO perform complicated mathematl-
cal calculations. No person who knew

Of labor, 1t was not built for manutact-

the horrible war over the Bcccher scan
dial that Is raging among the spirits on
the other side OF Jordan. and OF the mill
tary operations OF the Shadowy hosts that
hover around our court and watch the
srorrc,, Of our trial. By further inquiry
amonr the mediums | learn that the

that the anti-Beechcrite army, under

about Il state of cnmity among numerous
families. friends and lovers. At latest
accounts, Cleopatra had made some
point, on Mare Antony, but there are
aurrrhcn,ions that he may get the dead

The connection III the spirit world over

/ there was an advance to l,295, and still
further advance in 1874 to 1887. The
liabilities for the periods were as 1ol-
lows: First quarter of 1877 is gwen al
! S2O,264, 600; then came an increase IN
the same months in 1878 and the amount
reached S57, l24,OO0; the first quarter OF
1874 showed a decrease, and the haoill-
ties fell to S3S. SO9,000 The liabilities OF
the whole wear of 1872 are set down at
Sl2l O5s. 600; those of 1873 at S22S, 449,
600 and those of 1874 at l55, 239,OOO. If
the remaining quarters Of this year keep
pace with January, February and March,
the total will be 1856, 8SS. This is
slight increase over that of last year.
The liabilities OF the corresponding
months of 1874 and 1875 are nearly
equal in amount. In New York State
during the first quarter Of this year there
were 1872 failures, and the liabilities are
reported at 1854 ,562. In New York
city there were 1877 failures and the debts
are reported at 7,490,5O0. In the State
and city. $40 failures liabilities. Sll.lS5,-
0G2. In Pennsylvania l55 failures &C.
Cured. and the aggregate liabilities are
$4,927, SOC. Philadelphia is included in
this count. Massachusetts, New Hamp-
shire and Maine are Jumped and lib
failures and $j,5l4OOO liabilities recorded
from the beginning of the year until the
end of March. In the whole Southern
States there were 3l2 failures and the
added liabilities are $5,lSi.5G1. This Is
not bad exhibit in II section who's
trade and industries are trodd eli down
at present, and have been for years, by
circumstances of peculiar character.
Another noticeable feature Of the bank
rupt return of the first quarter OF lIS5 Is
that the amount Of liabilities shows little
increase above the average of the same
period of the last four years. The circu-
lar from which the above facts were
taken. in commenting upon the subject
Of business failures in 1875, says: Con
sidcring the continued depression in nu-
mcrous interests, the exceeding severity
of the winter and the lateness Of tho
spring, the conclusion is truly encour-
aging. 1t was to be expected that nu
mcrous wrecks from the panic Of 1873
would be discovered long after the storm
had passed, and probably not few OF
the above failures can thus be character
led
