In great cities where a mass of vice
and ignorance is concentrated, where al
SO the two extremes of wealth and pow
eriy are represented, the evil of univer-
sal suffrage is more manifest than else
where. One of the phenomena of hu-
man life is that rich men are contented
to have their property exposed as it is
in such city, to almost absolute con-
troll Of popular sovereignty. Taxes now
In this city are in reality robbery, for
they extort money from individuals
against theis will. in the form of law,
indeed, but by the vote of those who are
not themselves taxed to any apprecia BILE
amount. But we do not go back wards,
and the people who have the power in
their hands will not surrender it. The
remdy for evil must be in the univer-
sal education Of the people, in morals
and letters. Intelligence and virtue be
ing our corner stones, we must see to il
that our rulers-the voters-are enlight.
ened and good, and this is oar only
hope.-[Observer,

illumination from an Oil Well.

From the Bradford New Era.
The immense vein of gas WAS struck
on the night of Oct. 4 at depth of $40
feet, and was so strong as to render
further drillingimpossible. The we'll
is about two miles from Bradford, on
the Bruce Rodgers farm. Running
from the we'll are two two-ineh pipes,
attached to which are three gas jets of
the same size, the gas belching forth
from these pipes with such terrific
rush and noise as to render conversation,
pitched in the ordinary tone, inaudible
for fully one-fourth> of a mile away, and
the roar can be heard five or six miles
away. The blaze from each of the three
pipes is sent by the force Of the gas to a
height of from twenty five to forty feet,
the heat being 80 intense as to melt the
snow entirely away for distance of at
least one hundred feet, and also keeping
the ground so warm during all the cold
weather of the winter that grass, straw
berry vines, and other plants may grow
In many places where the crowd :oi
| sightseers have worn the ground, it is
very dusty. The light is so strong thai
newspaper may be read half mile
away. On very dark nights the illum
ination is grand. The light has fre
quently been seen in Ocean, Salamanca
and other towns twenty miles away.

Here is still another story concerning
the late Mr.. Nye: He was once engag
ed in trying case at the Circuit, in one
of the Southern tier of counties, the pre-
siding judge being unfortunately peev-
ish and irritable, as we'll as rather dull of
comprehension. General Nye had not
only cross-examined witness at great
length, but had frequently put the same
questions, which the judge had frequent
ly ruled against as improper. AT last
the patience of the judge was exhausted
and he rebuked General Nye for his
course, and petulantly asked him:
General Nye, what do think I am
sitting here for?" Nye looked ap at the
bench, and with grave countenance,
but with a twinkle in his eye, answered
and composedly, "You have got me
this time, your Honor"

The new calculation of the distance
from the earth to the sun, as deduced
from the transit of Venus in 1874,
makes the mean distance between nine
ty one and ninety-two millions of miles
This is reduction from the previous
ly supposed distance by more than three
millions of miles. The angle for cal
culation is less than an inch to a mile,
so that the true distance may still need
modification, though it will likely not
fall much below the figures given. The
true sun distance as memoralized in
the Great Pyramid of Egypt (Which
some claim relates to the physical uni
verse some what as the Bible to the
spiritually is 91,S40,O00, which is about
the distance calculated by the last tran
sit of Venus.

A bill is now before the State Legis-
lature to allow our Judges to sentence
prisoners TO the Workhouse for term
not exceeding three years, instead of
sending them to the Penitentiary. The
main objection that is made to it is that
it helps to enrich the contractors of con-
vict labor. We are lunable to see that
this point is well taken. If the same
convicts were sent to the Penitentiary
their labor would be sold out under the
contract system and the products of it
would go to enrich another city, while
they would fare much worse than il
here. The Cincinnati Work house is a
far more comfortable and better man.

drake, Y elbow Dock-with the Iodides
of Potassium and Iron, and is the
most efficacious medicine yet known
for the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so skilfully
combined that the full alternative
effect of each is assured, and while
it is so mild as to be harmless even
to children, it is still so effectual as
to purge out from the system those
impurities and corruptions which
deyelop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence
which prominent ply ysicians all over
the country repose in it proves their
experience of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues
have accumulated, and are con-
stantly being received, and as many
of these cases are publicly known,
they furnish convincing evidence of
the superiority of this Sarsaparilla
over every other Alternative medicine.
So generally is its superiority to any

do no more than to assure the public
that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.

Mr.. Daniel Brookhart, residing near
Somerset, died on last Wednesday
morning under very unexpected circum-
stances. He had been i'll for some weeks
and was taken sick with an attack Of
Pneumonia, but thinking il but a severe
cold did not call in medical aid until
late in his sickness. His physician,
DIR. Willard, pronounced his condition
a critical one, but by watchful care he
had been carried past the crisis Of his
malady and his temperature had return
ed to its normal rate, but an untoward
circumstance upon Tuesday morning
proved complication which eventuated
fatally to the young man. Upon reques-
ting him to take his medicine he refused
and became somewhat intractable but
it was hoped it would subside and he
would yield to his friends. About
noon of the same day, Tuesday, his phys
ician was summoned Immediately but
found that his nervous condition had
assumed an alarming tendency which
eliminated in an attack of acute mania.
The efforts of his attending physician
were perfectly nugatory and it was
heart rending to look upon the scene;
in the morning the patient had to be
assisted to move in his bed but soon il
became dangerous to go within reach Of
the unfortunate man. His condition
assumed the highest type of mania,
striking with fearful blows those who
came near him, requiring the utmost
precaution to approach him during par
oxyism and so violent indeed that several
Of the stoutest men could with difficulty
keep him quiet. After the fury of the
stage of excitement subsided he became
collapsed and died upon Wednesday
morning, leaving wife and one child
