MEN OF FoRCE.--There iS always
room for man of force, and he makes
room for many. Society is troop OF
thinkers. and the best heads among
them take the best places. A feeble
man can see the farms that are fenced
and titled, the houses that are built
The strong man sees the possible

ANExTRAORDiNARY HEROINE.

The bravest girl in Australla IS
Grace Vernon Russell. The steamer
Georcette was wrecked off the west
coast. near Perth: a small boat had
been capsized in the surf and women
and children were struggling III the
water. On the crest of a PERCEPTIONS
cliff appeared the figure of young Ia
dy on horseback. To the sailors on
the stranded vessel it seemed utterly
impossible that horse and its rider
should be able to descend that precl-
pice. But the young lady never tai.
tered. She plunged down at full
speed. and reaching the shore, spurred
her horse into the boiling surf.
There were two lines of roaring break
ers. With splendid pluck she dashed
through them and reached the boat,
to which the affrighted woman and
children were clinging. Her horse
stumbled over hawser which stretch
ed between the wreck and the small
boat: but she chung to the saddle and
brought the woman and children to
land. There was still a man left or
board the boat. She plunged into the
breakers again and brought him safe

electrical discharges. has been very
great throughout the werld.
1t is estimated that at least As per-
sons are killed annually by lightning
in this country. The average number
of deaths by lightning has been % in
England. 9 in Switzerland. in Bel
GUM. and IS in France. In France
alone. during period of thirty years,
over 10000 persons were smitten. of
which 2.252 were instantly killed.
Eighty were wounded and 9 killed
during one thunderstorm at Chateau
neuf les Monitors in 1861. and within
one week. when the air was highly
charged with electricity. thirty-three
fearful flashes of lightning were oh.

victims.

Signor Parnetti has been engaged TOR
the last four years in analyzing the
dust and debris of the streets or
Florencr and Paris. His investlga-
tons of the debris of the horse paths
proves that dust contains 50 per cent
of iron given by the shoes OF the
horses TO the stones. In the dust from
the causeways this eminent chemist
finds from 80 to 10 per cent OF good
glue. >ignor Parnetti selected and
treated separately the dust from the
causeways of the Boulevard des
Italiens over a period of two months,
which uniformly gave 80 per cenl., OF
goob transparent glue, it is said quite
equal to Belfast glue. He contem-

had saved were rescuing those who
remained or the wreck, the heroic
girl. drenched with the sea foam. and
half fainting with fatigue, galloped
dozen miles home to have relief sent to
the half-drowned, half-naked folks
whom she had left on the beach. Her
sister, Mrs. Brockman, took a horse,
galloped that night through the woods
to the shore, taking tea, milk. sugar,
and -four for the destitute people; and
the next day the rescued were brought
to Mr.. Brockman's house and cared

How. G. E. HOOKER has been
making speeches in Ohio, and from
the papers we learn that he is Gre
ating a fine impression upon the
people of that State. OF his speech
in Cincinnati ON the 1st inst. the
Enquirer Of that city says:
Mozart Hall was crammed last night
with democrats eager to listen to Gen.
Chas. E. Hooker, of Mississippi, Sena-
tor Thurman and Mr.. Mckinney. Gen.
Rockers voice was heard in this city,
we believe, tor the first time. His hear
ers all hoped it would not be the last.
He has an imposing presence, is a fluent
speaker, puts pertinent facts in splendid
order, is a very able and effective cam
paigner. Senator Thurman spoke briefly
and in a lighter vein than be does
usually. Throughout all the speeches
the audience remained, crowded and
attentive. II does not appear that the
republicans are similarly enthusiastic
and confident. The democratic faith is
hourly increasing.

The Blaine wing of the radical
party, who seem to be determined
not to quietly abandon their chances
of q successful onslaught on Mr..
Hayes, will buckle on their armor
in the vain hope CT piercing a
breach in his civil service reform
policy. Their line of battle will be
directed particularly against the
character Of his appointments, and
the case Of the Ohio clerks, they
contend, will afford them a case in
point, Notwithstanding Mr.. Hayes
indignant denial Of any Intention on
his part to compel the clerks togo
home and vote. Altogether we
predict the coming session will be
quite stormy and interesting, bot
tied up wrath being plenty.
