water tight tanks or buoys. built Of light
but tenacious material, the edges OF
their bases set together upon mn endless
wire cable. A light parallelogram frame

which are two large skeleton drums, or
rather four wheels covering the cables
bearing tho buoys. Between these two
lines OF buoys when mounted Is q space
for boiler and other room tho whole
length OF the boat. Tho revolution OF
the drum wheels carries the buoys along

also an oval path, aud all bearing is up
on the periphery Of the wheel. and
never upon the axle or centres OF the
wheels. The inventor claims oil tho buoys

TAXING CHURCH PROPERTY.

stitutions shall Be taxed the same n

urs for 7" Little Rhody" and 4 precedent
worthy to be followed by other States.
A We remarked In discussing that clause
Of the Presidents message relating to
the taxation Of church property. there
is NO equitable aso why u species
Of property or rather property held or
owned BY any peculiar class should Be
exempted from bearing its full proper
ton Of the expenses Of Government.
It is unjust to tax private citizens and
exempt corporate property. be 1t owned
or controlled by religious or sleemosy-
nary associations. There In no valid
reason for ~sIsmpting any property
which does or may require or receive
protection from the State. from contrib
uting to the payment Of the expenses OF
such care. This 10 the broad ground.
Il will bs the iootstool Of important re-
forms in this particular ere the year

W EsTMINsrER-

On Friday last our community was
startled by the announcement that a
dead body had been found in pasture
mile or so west of the village. 1t
proved to be that of Edwin P. Fuller,
of Putney. On inquiry it was found
that he left his home in Putney Feb. 10.
Little was thought of this at the time,
as he had often done the same and come
round after a few weeks. Very little is
known of his movements after leaving
home. He probably mistook the road
and turned into wood-road, over which
there has been no passing since, and
froze to death the night after he left
home. His horse and sleigh were a few
rods from the body, the horse evidently
having died of starvation. A juq near
by tells the sad tale, unfolds the mystery
and sends out its warning. Who is re-
sponsible?
