American manufacturers arc urged by the

ance upon the American Centennial to send
specimens of their products to the metropolitan
Exhibition which is to bc held at Sydney begin
ming April 10; 1877. The Importance OF our
trade with Australia and New South Wales is
not what it easily might be; and, as the present
Exhibition is to all intents and purposes that OF
Continent, it is to be hoped that the Invitation
will bc generally accepted. Manufacturers hav-

No Rest.

Science teaches US that the crust of
our earth is perpetually moving, and
that the sea level is constantly chang
ing. Our globe has its daily rotation on
its axis and its yearly revolution about
the sun. The sun, with all its satellites,
sweeps on toward moving point in the
constellation Hercules. Every so called
fixed star is in motion. Fifty thousand
years ago the constellation of the Great
Bear or Dipper was a starry cross han
dred thousand years hence the imaginary
Dipper will be upside down. and the
stars which form the bowl and handle
will have changed places. The misty
nebule are moving, and besides are
whirling around in great spirals, some
one way, some another. Every molecule
of matter in the whole Universe is swing
ing to and fro; every particle of ether
which fills space is in a jelly-like vibra-
ton. Light is one kind of motion, heat
another, electricity another. magnetism
another. Every human sense is the re-
suit of motion; every perception, every
thought is but motion of the molecules

hensible thing we call mind" The

cay, whether in worlds or in the minutest
organisms, are but notion Scientific

They Know How to Do It.

A gentleman was once making inqui-
ries in Russia about the method of catch
ing bears in that country. He was told
that, to entrap them, pit was dug sew
eral feet deep, and after covering It over
with turf, leaves, etc, some food was
placed on the top. The bear, if tempted
by the bait, easily fell into the snare.
"But," ne added, eff four or five happen
to get in together, they all get out again"
How is that2' asked the gentleman.
"They form ladder by stepping on each
others shoulders, and thus make their
escape" But how does the bottom one
get out?' "Ah! these bears, though not
possessing a mind and soul such as God
has given US, yet can feel gratitude; and
they won't forget the one who has been
the chief means of procuring their liber-
ty. Scampering of, they fetch the branch
Of tree, which they let down to their
poor brother, enabling him to speedily
DIN them in the freedom in which they

Hibernia on q strike.


On last Monday forenoon, the men at
work on Greggs Hill, to the number OF
forty-three, formed in ranks and under
the command OF one of their number,
marched into town, going directly to the
office of the s. j. * Z. Railroad Company
for the purpose of making known to
President Emmitt the object Of their
visit. 1t appears that on last Saturday
work was temporarily suspended on the
Narrow-Gauge, owing to some difficulty
between the Construction Company and
the Directors of the road, throwing these
men ou. of employment, leaving them
without money or provisions, although
months pay was then past due them, and
il was for the purpose Of learning what
was to be done in the premises that the
men called on the President Mr.. EN-.
mitt explained to them the causes'which
led to the suspension of the work at the
same time assuring the men that it was
not the intention of the Directors to de-
fraud them out of a cent, nor neither did
they intend to permit any one else to do
so, and that they pledge themselves to
see that the laborers on the road are
fairly dealt with. President EmmItt,
after assuring the men that the Directors
were in no way to blame for the suspen-
SlOH Ol tue WOThi uOE tue uelay IN bne
payment of their wages told the men to
return to their quarters and he would
send them enough provisions to last
them until Thursday, when the Directors
and Construction Company again meet,
at which time he hoped matters would
be so arranged as to obviate any further
trouble or delay. After matters had
been thus explained and arranged, the
men quietly returned to their quarters,
and were shortly followed by wagon
load of provisions, and now all is quiet
on the Narrow-Gauge. In conclusion, we
will add that the men while in town be-
haved themselves like gentlemen and
demanded nothing but what was justly
due them Waverly Watchman.

Washington Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune J
Ole Virginy Nebber Tire.

But there was something more than
sophomore enthusiasm in the Centennial
debate. There was q speech, a grave
earnest, deliberate, startling speech,
which will tell the country that Calhoun
still lives. One of his disciples, wearing
the grave-clothes of the old dead cause,
spoke for Virginia and the whole South
1t was Tucker, of Virginia, the ablest
new man who has yet spoken of the
Democrats. He chose to oppose the
Centennial appropriation on the ground
that it is unconstitutional, in order that
he might resurrect the ghoul which it
was thought the war had buried. His
speech was one of marked ability, and,
in passages, was eloquent. There has
been no such exposition of the State
rights dogma on the floor of Congress
since the ante-bellum days. 1t is a COM
panion piece to the speech of Ben. Hill.
Hill represents the fre-eating class.
Tucker is the type of the deliberative,
political philosopher. Herepresents the
doctrine that has been battered by the
bullet and cut by the sword.

Killed by a Kick from a Cow.

One evening last week an old lady,
named Gilleland, who resides in Jackson
township, this county, while engaged in
milking a COW, received a kick in the
stomach from the animal, which resulted
in her death almost instantly. Mrs. Gil
MIXED the COW before and had never
experienced any difficulty whatever, but
on the above evening something caused
the animal to kick, with above unhappy
result. The deceased was about fifty-five
years of age and was very estimable

The Democracy blames the Republican
party for the late panic and subsequent
hard times, and attributes this disaster
to q contraction of the currency and
high tariff; yet, every intelligent man in
the country knows that there has been
no contraction, and if it had not been for
that same tariff, the crisis would have
fallen upon us several years earlier, and
with tenfold greater severity.
