A Tt vn without Winter.

There is a place near Bradford,
Pennsylvania, where they have had
no winter this year. 1t is on the
Bruce Rogers farm. In drilling a
we'll they struck vein of gas at q
depth of 500 feet. The flow was so
powerful that work had to be stop
ped. The gas was lighted, and from
October until February it illumina-
ted the country around. The jets
were from twenty-five to forty feet
high, and were seen twenty miles
away. The heat generated by the
burning gas so affected the tenn
perature of the locality that flow
ers, berries and all kinds of vegita-
ton natural to the soil flourished up
to the day that the gas was shut
off. Cows browsed around the
burning wells, and "garden truck
was raised. The gas is now being
brought in pipes to Bradford to
furnish fuel for machine shops and
founderies, and it will be eventually
used to light the town. The roar
of the well can be heard at night at
Bradford,

want To "act hastily" in regard To
Withdrawing the troops, aud that IL
is necessary Tor him To "ascertain
the facts" in regard To Louisiana
and South Carolina. lie therefore
proposes to send a commission TO
these States, when by sending over
TO the congressional archives he can
in ten minutes obtain twenty thou-
sand pages of testimony, covering
the whole subject, collected by re-
publican and democratic commit
tees. Thi. commission proclivity
of Hayes is evidence of very

The Situation i'm a Nutshell.

The Lynchburg News states the
situation in the following terse
though brief language:
Gen. Grant violated the Constitu
ton by sending troops TO South
Carolina and Louisiana, admitted
his sin and signitied his repentance,
leaving his successor pledged TO
correct the evil and repair the
wrong. MI. Hayes used this prom
ise to smooth his pathway and quiet
popular indignation. The sfGta q1o
is as Gen. Grant left il. The troops
still mount guard in the quiet
streets Of peaceful cities. The Cab
met is divided, another electoral
commission is TO start for the
South. 1t will be another 8 " 7, 3
will beat 2. A few months will be
gained. and Mr.. Hayes will see his
way to avoid the inaugural, and the
South will be full of fools.
