Street Cars Driven bp Compressed Bir,
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
An air-car, or pneumatic dummy,
made by the Pneumatic Tramway En-
gine Company, is running regularly on
the Second avenue railroad track between
Ninety. sixth and One Hundred and
Twenty ninth streets. The motive is
compressed air. An engine at One Hun
dred and Twenty sixth street pumps the,
air. car full as oftfn as required. The
vehicle is capable 1t carrying one hun
dred persons Nothing Of the apparatus
that runs the car is visible. Six rolled
steel cylinders are situated beneath, two
under the seats and four in an inclosed
place under the body of the car. By the
engine at One Hundred and Twenty sixth
street air is condensed into them until it
reaches pressure of $50 pounds to the
square inch. The six cylinders together
hold 100 cubic feet Of air. The driver OF
the car stands in front and manipulates a
pair of levers similar to those employed
in steam locomotive. He is not neces-
sarily an engineer; any one may learn
the whole manipulations readily. The
air compressed in the cylinders is capab'e
of propelling the car for six miles, and
the speed may be regulated up to thirty
miles an hour. The car can be stopped
almost instantaneously. BY the multi
plication of cylinders it is feasible to
make trips OF any distance. The time
required for charging the cylinders de-
pends wholly upon the power of the en-
gine employed. The car that is running
is charged in about six minutes. No
smoke, OF course, and no noise greater
than that made by the ordinary horse
Car, attends its progress. The Second.
avenue Company intend to have ready
six cars of this sort to do all their carry
ing between Ninety-sixth street and Har.
lem River by the 1st of March next.

A Good Story by Judge Black.

Judge Black, of Pennsylvania, tells a
comical story of a trial in which a German
doctor appeared for the defence in q case
for damages brought against client of
his by the object of his assault. The
eminent jurist soon recognized in his
witness, who was produced as a medical
expert, laboring man, who some years
before and in another part OF the country
had been engaged by him as builder of
post and rail fences. With this cue he
opened the examination: You say,
DOCTOR" he began, with great Difference
and suavity, "that you opersted upon
Mr.--'s head after it was cut by
Mr.-2" ~
20, yaw," replied the ex-fence builder,
''me do dat; yaw, yaw.' !
"Was the wound q very severe one,
dcctor2"
Enough to kill him, if not save his
life"
swell, doctor what did you do for hima"
''Every thing"
"Did you perform the Csosarian opera
tion2" -. s.-...
20, yaw, yaw; if me do not that, he def"
"Did you decapitate hims"
"Yav, yaw, me do dat, too"
"Did you hold q post mortem exanina-
tion2"
20, to be sure, Schudge; me always do
| dat" 4
swell now, DOCTOR" and here the Judge
bent over in friendly, familiar way, "tell
us whether you submitted your patient to
the process known among medical men
as post and rail fenciorum'"
"The mock doctor drew himself up
Indignantly. "Scherry Plack," !" said 95he,
l know'd you vas q jayhawk lawyer, an
now l know you tor mean man.

Genius and Strong Drink Divorced.

From the Chicago Advance. .s t-.. .t.....
The remark is frequently heard that
t is the most gifted, the "eenerous,' fell
lows who are most apt to fall into intem-
perance. The saying is neither true nor
useful. However it may have been
formerly, it has come to pass now that, as
Professor Swing suggests, the temper
ance reform has reached first the minds
that are most gifted. "Many years ago."
he says, lit was my good fortune to serve
my country by being secretary of tenn
perance society and in that ofhcialdignity
I addressed letters Of inquiry to presi-
dents of colleges and professors, to ask
what was the quality Of the young men
who in these days marred their college
course by the use Of ardent drin ks. Long

letters came from President Woolsey, of
Yale, and from Horace Mann, then of

that genius in their colleges and schools

There are lots Of Greenback converts
in Maine this spring. The n, mers have
taken accoust Of stock and sighted
ahead. The man with his farm mort
gagged sees that the next 500 note will
be harder to pay than the last one, ana
he remembers that the last one came
harder than the one before. Those notes
were given some eight years ago. lie
knows that when they were given MY
bushels Of wheat would pay one Of
them. and fifty pounds Of beef would
paw the interest on IL for year. TODD y
he sees II takes one hundred bushels 81
wheat 10 pay one Of these notes, and one
hundred pounds Of good beef TO pay the
interest on II. He knows his debts have
been doubled in the past few years, and
he begins to see that the sledge-hammei
that has crippled him and ruined men
by the thousand, is held to-day In thu
hand Of John sherman. and that tn
head or that hammer Is Republican re-
sumption. He sees $l60.OO0,0CO Of COLI
piled up in the treasury TO please
Wall-ttreet ring. and knows that nc !
taxed to pay the interest on el60, 900 ,0ot
OF bonds that might be paid OF will
that coin. The Maine farmer 10 con
verted aud has gone 10 work 70 CONVEX

earth can save the old Pinc.Trec Stat
