He told his wife that he must have
immediate relief or he would die; she
hastily robed herself, went down
stairs, and found the watchman, who
admitted her to the dining room, and
she spread mustard from the castor
on her handkerchief and hastened up
stairs. Finding the bedroom door
ajsr, she rushed in, turned down the
bedclothes, and slapped the mustard
draft on the unconscious mans bowels.
He instantly sprang up in bed and
said, "Mr God, madam, what are you
doing9" She had got it on the wrong
man. We leave the reader to imag.

The fast mail trains began running
September Is, 1875. Every day
since that date they have passed over
the road, either way, between Now
York and Chicago, and with rare ex.
ccptions arrived At the termini on
time. May 26 chronicles the 6rst
accident to any Of them. And this
accident, II il to bo observed, was not
in any way the result Of fast running.
1t might have happened to any train.
The engineer who, fortunately. is not
dangerously injured, tells the story
clearly. A helping engine is at-
tached to al trains to bring them up
the heavy grade at Albany. No
stop is made at the top of the hill for
the helper to cut loose and get out
OF the way. The "helper" slackens
speed enough to ease the strain on
the pin through the draw-bar of tho
train engine. The pin 10 raised, tho
train runs slowly, the "helper" steams
ahead, and 10 switched off, leaving
the main track clear for the train to
continue on its way. In this case tho
draw-bar, instead of falling in tho
pilot rest provided for it, fell outside,
slid down on tho incline of the pilot,
caught against the guard-rail Of the
switch, and threw the engine of the
track. The engineer says he was
running not faster than twenty miles
an hour at the time. The accident is
to be regretted, especially as it re-
suited in the death of. the fireman,
who applied the patent brakes and
jumped, but it Was IN accident for

generations Of slovens and ciphers in

true that some Of these young mon

but thousands of them utterly fail

some way opportunities Of cultivating

that il sometimes you grieve over the

Tne First Public Rcading or the

The Declaration was written by
Jefferson, as he himself stated in .
letter to DR.. Mease, in his lodging
house at the southwest corner of
Market and Seventh streets. The
house is still standing, and is occu-
pied by tailor, who shows his pa
triotism by calling his shop the "Tem-
pie of Liberty Clothing Store" The
instrument WAS signed, as our readers
know, in the east room of the State
house, on the lower floor. 1t appear
ed in the next day's paper (side by
side with an advertisement Of q negro
child for sale who had had measles
and small-pox) but was not officially
given to the people until Monday on
the sth Of July, when it was read to
. large concourse of people in the
State house yard by John Nixon,
deputed to the task by the Sheriff Of
Philadelphia, who had received it
from the committee. The stage on
which the reader stood was . rough
wooden platform on the line of the
eastern walk, about half way between
Fifth and Sixth streets. Deborah
Logan, who lived in the neighbor.
hood, states that she heard from the
garden every word of the instrument
read, and thought the voice vas
Charles Thompson's. In spite of all
evidence in favor of Nixon, we choose
to believe her. The Man of Truth
should have first made known these
words to humanity. Cheers rent the
welkin, .feu-dejoie was fred, the
chimes of Christ church rang through
the bright summer day, and the old
bell gave at last to the world the
message it had received = quarter Of
. century before, and proclaimed
liberty to al the world.

Weight of Pigs for Market.

1t was only . few years ago that
swine breeders were vieing with each
other for the greatest weight Of car
cass; but this il now al changed.
Hogs that will weigh 500 pounds are
sold at less price per pound than
those Of $50 to 300 pounds. The
market in England has long favored
light weights. London 10 chiefly
supplied with hogs Of less than 100
pounds weight. And this tendency
Of tho market to pigs, well fatted,
