EDISON'S ELECTRIC LIGHT.

The New York Sunday Herald gives an
elaborate illustrated account of the newly
perfected invention of Mr.. Edison, which
is expected TO supersede all other methods
Of lighting. The Herald says:
The first public exhibition of Edison's
long looked for electric light is announced
to take place New Years Eve at Menlo
Park, on which occasion that place will be
Illuminated with the new light. Edison 5
electric light, incredible as il may appear
is produced from little piece of paper. a
tiny strip that a breath would blow away.
Through this little strip of paper is passed
an electric current. and the result is a
bright, beautiful light. like the mellow
sunset of the Italian autumn. But paper
instantly burns, even under thu trifling
heat of tallow candle, exclaims the
skeptic; and how then can it withstand
the fierce heat of an electric current p
Very true; but Edison makes the little
piece OF paper more infusible than plati-
mum; more durable than granite and in
wolves no complicated process. The paper
is merely baked in an oven until all its
elements have passed away except its car
bon framework. The latter is then
placed in a glass globe connected with the
wires leading to the electricity producing
machine, and the air exhausted from the
globe. Then the apparatus is ready to
give light that produces no deleteiious
gases, no smoke, no offensive odors: n
light without flame, without danger; re-
quiring no matches to ignite, giving out
but little heat, yitiating no air and free
from all pickering; u light that is a little
globe OF sunshine, vertable Aladdin's

The "free pass" question has always been a
troublesome one in Northern and Western
Legislatures-should legislator accept a
free pass from a railroad company or not?
Quite number OF Legislatures have de-
nounced acceptance of these passes as petty
bribery. and refused to allow their members
to accept them. The reform Legislature of
Massachusetts, however, views the matter In
an entirely different light. 1t favors economy
and has been very diligent In reducing the
salaries of all the States officers, It's own
members included. A bill, which promises to
reduce expenses, has just been offered In the
Legislature, which seems to meet with gen.
eral approval, and, it Is said, is almost GER
tain to pass. This bill compels all railroads
to carry free members to and from the capital
during sessions of the Legislature. 1t is free
from the objection of the free pass system,
since 1t does not place the legislator under obli
cations to the railroads. and enables the State
to carry on its legislation at the very small.

say, to pass.

In England, some time ago, tho prison au-
thorities made an examination OF the birth
place and residence Of the various criminals
under confinement. to test the question what
part of the country and what sort OF life were
most likely to produce criminals. The result
showed the faisity of Pope's idea that Tho
towns alone produced the murderers. burglars
and thieves 1t was clearly demonstrated
that majority OF these came from the coun-
try. London was shown to be moral and yir-
tuous, productive only Of good, as compared
with some of the rural portions OF the west
and south Of England. while Manchester
which has the worst record OF any city In
England, was proved to have com paratively
smaller criminal population than Kent.
An examination In Connecticut, made by
the board Of directors Of the Connecticut
state Prison, makes similar showing. 1t
was then shown that cities do not, MS rule.
furnish tho largest number Of convicts. In
deed the county In Connecticut with the worst
criminal record was Litcheld. which Is
altogether rural, containing no cities what
ever. while the cities of New Haven and
Hartford stood at the head OF the list
for good conduct, having furnished the
smallest number OF convicts to their voting
population.

Andy johnson used to keep an accurate
record OF his gradual rise In Official life, from
councilman OF little Tennessee town to
President of the United States. Major Gen.
Hartranft, Of Pennsylvania, ought to keep a
similar record of his gradual decline. In 1876
ne was Pennsylvania's favorite son before the
Cincinnati convention, received large vote
for the Presidency, and fairly distanced Hayes
ON several ballots. From prospective Presi-
deDcy and the Governorship of the second
State In the Union, he has stepped down to a
postmastership, and it Is now seriously pro-
posed to run him for sheriff of Philadelphia at
the next election. 1t is said that he would be
glad to take the office. few more years,
and Hartranft may expect to be ofrered a
justiceship OF the peace.

The idea Of secession seems to have
travelled West. California Is talking serious
ly Of seeding from the United States and
setting up for itself as the Occidental Repub
lie unless Hayes signs the anti Chinese bill
recently passed by Congress. This threat is
probably due to the position that the Eastern
papers and the Legislatures OF several Of the
Eastern States have taken on this bill, de-
nouneing it as unjust, arbitrary and outrage
ous' There Is possibly more in this Cali
