A lamentable accident happened at the
school house in Perry township on Fri
day last, which imperils the life of very
worthy young man. The facts as we
learn them are these: Perry Gates,
youngest son of Mr.. Merrick Gates, had
a loaded pistol in his side pocket, which
attracted the attention of young Morris
Upton, son of Mr.. Jas. A. Upton, who
playfully attempted to take possession of
it. and in the struggle the pistol by some
means was discharged, the ball entering
the left breast of young Upton a few
inches above the heart, passing almost
through the body. The ball was extract
ed near the spinal column. The boys
were close friends, and young Gates is
terribly depressed on account of the sad
accident. Young Upton it is thought
will recover.
Now while this painful injury to young
Upton was mainly the result of accident
what justification can be offered for the
carrying of the deadly and unlawful
weapon which caused the terrible mis-
chiefl The law is stern against the
carrying of concealed deadly weapons,
and the practice has become so common
of late, that where an act of this kind
comes so fagrantly to the eyes of our
civil officers, the law should be brought
with all its power against the offender
so that the pernicious practice should at
once be broken up. Let justice be done.

The Old Laborer
BY F. W. FABER.

What end doth he fulfill?
He seems without will,
Stupid, unhelpful helpless, age-worn man !
He hath let the years pass
He hath toiled and heard mass,
Done what he could and now does what he can
And this forsooth is all!
plant or animal
Hath more positive work to do then he;
Along his daily beat
Delighting IN the heat,
he crawls in sunshine which he does not see.
What doth God get from him i?
His very mind is dim,
Is there glory in his strife?
Is there meaning in his life?
Can God hold such thing-1ke person dear?
Peacel he is dying now;
No light is on his brow
He makes no sign, but without sign departs.
The poor die often so,
And yet they long to go,
To take TO God their over-weighted hearts.
Born only to endure,
Seem useful chiefly by their multitude;
For they are men who keep
Their lives secret and deep;
Alas the poor are seldom understood.
The laborer that is gone
Was childless and alone,
AS homeless as his Saviour was before him
He told in no mans ear
His longing or his fear,
Norwhat he thought of life as it passed DER him
His heart was close and cold,
He had no love to take no love to give;
Men almost wished him dead
Twas best for him, they said;
Twas such weary sight to see him live
He walked with painful stoop,
,AS if life made him drOOp,
And care had fastened fetters round his feet;
He saw no bright blue sky,
Except what met his eye
Reflected from the rsir pools in the street.
To whom was he of good?
He slept and he took food,
He used the earth air and kindled fire;
He bore to TAX relief,
Less as a right than grief;
To what might such soul as his aspire?
His inexpensive eye
Peered round him vacantly,
As If whate'er he did he would be chidden;
He seemed a mere growth of earth
Yet even he had mirth,
AS the great angels have, untold and hidden.
Always his downcast eye
Was laughing silently,
AS if he found some jubilee in thinking;
For his one thought was God,
In that one thought he abode,
Forever in that thought more deeply sinking.
Thus did he live his life,
kind of passive strife,
Upon the God within his heart relying;
Men left him all alone,
Because he was unknown,
But he heard the angels sing when he was dying.
God judges by a light
Which battles mortal sight,
And the understanding man the crown hath
won;
In his vast world above,
broader world of love,
God hath some grand employment for his son.

To the Editor of The Tribune:
SIR: When person has placed himself
in a fagrantly false position, whether
inadvertently or perversely, whether for

him to do is to abandon it forthwith !;
and the worst thing is to persist in de

skill OF fence on his part, no dexterity in
manipulating facts and figures to suit his
purpose, no dialectical adroitness in an
endeavor to make the worse appear the

fishness or prejudice however plausibly
or eloquently made, can shield him from
that moral condemnation which is sure
to follow such dereliction from the path

the patient is rarely able to lie on the
left side; sometimes the pain is felt
under the shoulder blade, and it fire.
quently extends to the top of the shoul-
der, and is sometimes mistaken for
rheumatism in the arm. The stomach
is affected with loss of appetite and
sickness; the bowels in general are
costive, sometimes alternative with lax;
the head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with dull, heavy sensation in
the back part. There is generally
considerable loss of memory, accom-
panied with a painful sensation of hay
ing left undone something which ought
to have been done. A slight, dry cough
is sometimes an attendant. The patient
complains of WEAKNESS and debility; he
is easily startled, his feet are cold or
burning, and he complains Of prickly
sensation of the skin; his spirits are
low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him,
yet he can scarcely summon up forti-
tude enough to try it. In fact, he dis
trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disease, but
cases have occurred where few of them
existed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.

CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken

Practical Science.

The gradual mode of seasoning is the
most favorable to the strength and dur
ability of timber.
Wire ropes newly tarred or creased
have about forty per cent. less rightly
than untarred ropes.
When the fibers of materials cross
each other, friction is less than when
they run in the same direction.
Under the pressure of the atmosphere
alone the temperature of water cannot
be raised above its boiling point.
A vulcanized india-rubber belt will
sustain a greater stress than leather,
added to which its resistance to slipping
is from so to s. per cent. greater.
In high.speed betting the tension, or
the breadth of the belt, should be in
creased in order to keep the belt from
slipping. Long belts are more effective
than short ones.
Timber freshly cut contains about 81
TO 48 per cent. of liquids. By exposure
to the air in seasoning one year it loses
from II to % per cent. and when sea-
soned it yet retains from 10 to 10 per
cent.
A good waterproof cement is made by
dissolving five parts of gelatine in hot
water, and adding one part OF chromate
of lime the cement must be kept in
vessels which are we'll shielded from
light.
Charring or pointing timber is highly
injurious to any but seasoned lots, as it
effectually prevents the drying of the
inner part of the wood, in consequence
of which fermentation and decay soon
take place.
Ner Remedies describes the follow
ing easy method of making hole in
plate glass: Make circle of clay or
cement rather larger than the intended
hole pour some kerosene in the cell
thus made, ignite it, place the plate
upon a moderately hard support, and
with stick rather smaller than the
hole required, and hammer, strike o
rather smart blow. This will leave a
rough. edge hole, which may be
smoothed with file. Cold water is
said to answer even better than blow.
A new fuel, formed of the residuum
OF petroleum and coal tar, mixed to the
consistency of molasses, is expected to
produce great results in all industries
in which wood and coal are now used to
produce heat. An experiment recently
at the Brooklyn navy yard resulted in
the generation of 5000 deg. of regis
tered heat, which melted pig-iron in
ten minutes, instead of two hours, and
liquefied glass in two hours, instead of
sixteen. Ii is claimed as q steam pro-
Queer, it will save $4,000 in single

freight room. Of course such an in
