der cart the shafts of which are
held and guided by the owner. The
axle of the cart is arched In the

with simple round padded leather
collar, a pair of traces. and a back
band, the assistance he gives his
master. who does little more, ex-
eept on ascending ground, than guide
the cart, is very great. Usually not
more than one dog is attached to
cart, but have seen as many as
three. and the American Consul
told me that he had seen six and
eight to one wagon. driven in from
the country. loaded with wood, with
the driver on top. In Brussels there
are many shops for the manufac-
ture and sale of dog harness, and in
them you may buy a plain set or one
ornamented with polished brass.
There is a dog market held every
Sunday in this city. and here every
variety of dos is bought and sold.

particular to inquire of the Ameri-
can Consul in relation to the species
of dog preferred, but it seems that
they have no particular breed. and
that no systematic effort has been
made to improve the breed. I OBJ
served that the dogs in most common
use were ours, of medium size, and
of allcolors- They seem to be very
enthusiastic pullers. moving at the
speed of brisk walk for man, and
they never balk but the moment
the wagon stops the dog lies down

taught the wisdom of conserving
his strength. q ~
To all appearances the dogs of
Brussels lead but a dogs life, and
all of them have a dropping tail,
and a detected hang-dog air; but
how much better it is for them. for
their country, and for their prosperi.

dogs.

leads him by small chain when she

After Death-What? ?

| The Rev. Randolph S. Foster, of
Boston, delivered at Fairport, N. Y,
last Friday his second lecture enti-
tied Beyond the Crave" to an i'm
mense and greatly interested audi
ence. He proceeded to speak of
the effect upon the soul of the des-
truction of the body at death, and
said: Suddenly the. human ma
chine stands still. What becomes
of the man? We have no personal
testimony. We have seen no man
who has gone beyond the grave. If
we take the Bible away, our belief
in future life rests upon an inse-
cure foundation. l find myself a
man. / think. 1 feel, have emo
tions and feelings. will, 1 am. j
know all this. Think and feel that
I am to live forever. God has put
this idea into me, and l will hold to
it until he takes it from me. He
made me, and l cannot re.make my.
aelf or put myself out Of existence.
The proof is that what has been
created abides. remains forever.
There is no proof that any created
thing has ever been abolished or des.
Ptroyed. No creature can destroy it.
self. 1t is true that forms perish,
but forms are not things;they change,
but the substance remains. 1t is
said that as animals perish so may
men perish but ] deny it. The suh.
stance of the body ls not destroyed,
only the form. The soul of man is
a pure and simple substance; hence
it cannot perish. An anatomist can
disseet the body. but no anatomist
can dissect the soul. Evidence that
man was ever annihilated is chal-
lenged from all men. A human
soul is spiritual essence that can
think or win. It is a growing some
thing; it unfolds its power. and in
this there is no limit. He then
sketched the growth of the human
soul from babyhood to the prime Of
manhood, and said there was no linn.
it to development, which would go
on forever. He said: ssWould God
be so prodigal and improvident as
to destroy the grandeat Of all the
creatures ne has made. the human
soul? Again, Immortality was In
ferred because man has an instinct
which teaches 1t. God created man
that instinct, and he will not mock
it. IF man is not immortal he may
indict the throne of tue .uniYerse aud
impeaeh the. Almighty God OF heaY-
en-. and upon the grounds of Justice.
But God is just. His vindication is
complete. He can do a better thing
by those who love Him than He does
for them in this life. He can here
after put crewns of glory on their
heads. and He will do it. There Ia
no evidence that death is an ever
lasting sleep, bat thereis evidence
enough, and fully satisfying-that
there is life beyond the grave"

The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1878-11-14

AMONG the innovations in methods of
transportation, the narrow-gauge rail
way system has branched out wonder
fully in the few years of it's existence.
There are 1882 miles of this road in
the United States, and 5000 more un-
der contract. 1t is claimed by the adj
vocates of the new king of railroading
that, owing to the small cost of con-
struction and equipment in the narrow
gauge system and to other advantages,
freight carrying can be done Is per
cent. cheaper than by the old lines, not
merely for short distances and local
traffics, but for the heavy freightage of
main through lines as well. They fig
ure up that our railroads, exclusive of the
narrow-gauge, have cost, up to 1878, 49,,
200,000,000, the Understanding portion
of which calls annually for the expendi-
ture of $26,OOO,OOO. The same length
of narrow gauge road might have been
built, they say, debt free from this vast
amount and leave an unexpended sur
plus of $2,4O0,O00,0O0. Enough to pay
the national debt would thus have been
saved by the substitution of narrow
gauge for broad gauge in our 10000
miles of railway. But it is not perfectly
clear that the new system, in spite Of it's
evident advantages for certain kinds of
transportation, could in all respects fill
the place acceptably of the broad gauge
through lines.

Pierced by Red-HOt Wires.

A terrible accident occurred Tuesday
afternoon at the wire-rod mill of the
Cambria Works at Johnstown. Zelvin
E. Fisher, 10 years of age, was employed
at the reel, and his duty consisted in
taking off, with the aid of pair of tongs,
the coils of wire which are reeled up as
the material passes from the finishing
rolls. He had been at work in that es-
Enlistment since it first started, and
was not only competent, but very care
full. He was standing near the reeling
apparatus, waiting for coil to be wound
up, when the wire caught at the finish
ing-rod, and the boy at the reel failed
to slack up the wheel in time. The re-
suit was that the strand was snapped
asunder, and the end was ierked around
with ightning-like rapidity, striking
Mr.. Fisher on the right arm, between
the elbow and shoulder, penetrating en-
tirely through, entering his breast near
the nipple, when it again passed out
near the top of the breast-bone. The
brachial artery was severed, the muscles
badly torn, and the flesh scared by the
hot wire. Everything possible was done
for the injured man, but he died the
same evening.-PHtSburgh Telegraph.
