RUxAwAY.-On Thursday morning, on the
arrival of the morning train from Baltimore,
were hitched in front Of Mr.. Denton Gehr's,
and the horse took fright at the approach of
the train. Mr.. Hoov er, thinking he could
quiet him, unhitehed the horse, when the
animal started, Mr.. Hoover holding on to the
bride, and was swung several times round by
the horse, when the buggy was upset and
broken. The animal then broke loose and
ran some distance up the street, when he was
caught and brought back. Mr.. hoover is a
stout, strong man, weighing over two hundred
pounds, and although he held on to the ex-
cited animal manfully, he yet got away from
him. 1t was fortunate that he sustained no
bodily injury in his perilous position.

Andrew Jackson's right hand man
Thomas II. Benton, used to say: "A man
with a gold dollar in his pocket has that
much positive value, representing so much
food or other property. He may fall down
steep place and be killed, and years
after if his bones are found the remains
will be worth the gold dollar that fell with
him. But the man who has paper
promise to pay has that which depends
for value on the action of board of di-
rectors or of government over which he
has no control, and may be worth fifty
cents, forty cents, or may be worthless. .

MISCELLANY.
xLhRaE NJ 4 CLINE.


The Hewes & Phillips Machine Works have
just completed the largest ice machine cvsl
made. 1t was ordered by Senator Jones and
is destined for New Orleans It has been in
course construction for six months and is
now being boxed for shipment. The weight
of the machine is 90 tons and it is capable of
making 30 to 40 tons Of ice per day. Ice is
manufactured in this machine by the Tiller
ammonia process with Ballentine's improve
/. ment to prevent the escape ofammonia. The
Hewes & phillips Works have also made %
horse power Porter-Allen condensing engine
and boiler to operate this machine.
The process Cor which the machinery has
just been completed, is that invented by Chas.
Pellier, of Paris, and is The only one which
has proved at once efficient and economical in
the Manufacture of ice. The machinery con-
sists of pump, such as is observation-disclosures, of
an ordinary condensing coil, and of afreezing
tank wherein the ice is formed. When the
machine has been thoroughly tested, and
found to be perfectly tight, it is charged with
giveu' quantity of ammoniacal gas or meth
ylicrether,s liquefied under pressure, These
fluids possess the wonderful property of boil
ing Mt about 80 degrees below zero, and hence,
as soonsas relieved from the pressure neces-
saryrto their liquefaction, they evaporize, and
absorb, in doing SO, an enormous amount of
heat, which, rbeingr drawn direetly from the
water in the tank, causes the formation of ice.
The object of the pump and condenser is to
take up the Yapors produced by the freezing
action and liquefy them over again, SO that
the. same quantity of gas may be used over
and over again almost indefinitely. The ice
is formed upon plates, which may be of any
size, according to the capacity of the machine.
The plates to be used by the New Orleans
Company are 20 feet long and 10 feet high,
and ice win form on sach side ofthem about
1e inches thick, thus giving about II tons Of
ice to each plate Ice thus formed is said to
be not only clear and transparent, but chem
ically pure and very hard. Every impurity is
necessarily drawn out of the water by the pro-
cess of congelation. This machine, it is
claimed. viii make fifty tons of ice per day,
at cost ofsnot over one dollar per ton.
II, aaditionle this machine Messrs. Hewes
& Phillips have also just completed for the
same company an engine Of the design known
as the Pofter- Allen engines which is intended
to drivethe above machine and which is ca
pable OF producing $50 horse power. But
1875 horse power is really required to drive the
new machine, and the company will, there
fore. Have reserve power sufficient to drive
second machine of equal size, should their
business demand it.--Newqrk 1dcerttser.
