A Curious Fact.
Union.

Bands of music are forbidden to play on
most of the large bridges of the world. A
constant succession of sound waves, especi-
ally such as come from the playing of a
good band, will excite the wires to vibration.
At first the vibrations are very slight, but
they will increase as the sound waves con-
tinue to come. The principal reason why
bands are not allowed to play while cross
ing certain bridges, the suspension bridge
at Niagara, for instance, il. that if followed
by professions of any kind they will keep
step with the music, and this regular step
would cause the wires to vIbrate. At the
suspension bridge military companies are
not allowed to to march across in regular
step, but break ranks The regular trotting
gait of large dog across a suspension
bridge is more dangerous to bridge than
a heavily loaded wagon drawn by team
of large horses.

What matter, friend, though you and
May SOW, and others gather
We build, and others occupy
Each laboring for the other.
What though We toll from sun to sun,
And men forget to fistter
The noblest work our hands have done
II God approve, what matter
What matter though we SOW in tears,
And crops fail u the reaping;
What though the fruit OF patient years
Fast perish ia our keeping
Upon our boarded treasure, floods
Arise and tempests gather
II faith beholds beyond the clouds
A clearer sky, what matter
What matter though our castle fall,
And disappear while building;
Though strange handwriting or the wall
Fame out amid the gliding;
Though every idol of the heart
The hand OF death may shatter;
Though hores decay and friends depart
Ii heaven be ours, what matter

AL muscular power, whether of man
or OF OUner animals, may be traced to
the same source. Animals get their
food either from plants or from other
animals that have fed upon plants; and
the plants owe their existence to the
sun. The animal is machine, like
the steam-engine; the food which it
eats is the fuel that keeps the machine
in a ctiOn.

In reply to the many inquiries which
we have received regarding most
prominent modern remedy we would
say To the best of our belief War
ner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure is
pure in its nature, efficient in its action
and certain in its results. We have
learned of some remarkable cures which
it has effected, and believe that as q
preventative of disease it is unequalled.
For delicate ladies and enfeebled men
it is invaluable, and its pure vegetable
qualities commend it to the favor and
use of all.

WAR IN TEXARKANA.

On Sunday morning, the 3Oth
ult, the white people and negroes of
Texarkana had a severe engage
ment, which resulted in leaving five
wounded negroes on the battle
field, three Of whom, it is thought,
would "pass in their checks" The
cause of this terrible tragedy
was an attempt, by the whites,
to lynch a negro, known as DR..
Cromwell, who had attempted to
rape Mrs. Coners, a white lady.
Cromwell, a few days previous to
his fendish act, had quarrel with
Mrs. Coner's husband concerning a
lot in the town Of Texarkana. The
quarrel resulted in fight. Crom-
we'll, to have revenge, attempted
his hellish act upon Mrs. c., whose
shrieks soon brought parties to her
relief, who arrested and put Crom-
we'll in Jail. The night before the
encounter, the sheriff, fearing Crom-
we'll would be lynched, secretly re-
moved him. Not knowing this,
four men started Sunday morning
to secure the Jail key. When within
few yards Of the the jail, a party
of negroes rose from behind
a fence and demanded them to halt,
and, the white men not obeylng,
opened fire, when the reserved
force of the whites came up, and
general engagement began, which
resulted as above stated, none Of the
whites being injured.
The negroes, after being routed
threatened TO burn the town, and all
the whites who could do so, armed
themselves and stood picket on the
streets all night, awaiting move
ment from tho negroes; but no
demonstrations of the kind were
made.
The whites learning that the
fend was secreted near the railroad,
not far off, selected party who
went to the round house, demanded
an engine, went to where the fend
was secreted and hanged him. The
citizens Of Texarkansa apprehend
more trouble with the negroes about
the matter, and, we suppose, keep
on the lookout.

GEN. WADE HAMPTON.

The radical journals continue to pub
li5h the remarks attributed to Gen. Wade
Hampton in his speech at Staunton, Va,
] lily 26.h, although the General denies
having made them. OF course his de-.
nial has no weight with the Republican
journals, for falsehood suits them as
we'll as the truth, when it is what they
want, and they will stick to it any how.
At Staunton, Va, on August 28.h, a
large meeting was held, which adopted
the following:
Whereas, Governor Wade Hampton
ofSouth Carolina, who, by the invitation
of this Club, delivered speech in this
city on the 26th July last, which, in the
opinion of this Club, from information
now in it's possession, has been wifully
and maliciously misrepresented by the
Valley Virginian, Republican news
paper of this city, and the correspond
ent of the New York Tribune, for the
purpose of making party capital; there
fore be it
Resolved, That the construction which
has been attempted to be put upon the
language of Gen. Hampton by these par.
ties, is warranted by an especial utter
anCe, and entirely at variance with the
whole tenor of his speech.
Resolved, That the attempt, for parti-
san purposes, in the face of his denial
and the denial of hundreds who heard
him, to put him in a false position be.
fore the country, is ine1cusable in NOR
ais or politics.

The "young Napoleon" of the Empire
of Stark county is now in the Principal
ity Of Carroll, making speeches to the
"skeery" faithful. At New Harrisburg
we learn he talked two hours, abusing
Democrats, the solid South, Confederate
brigadiers, until half his crowd left him
in disgust. Regarding Maine he had
nothing to say, althoul h when he return.

state, he informed Cantonians Maine

In conclusion, let us express hope
that the Rep. will continue, now that it
has opened the subject, and explain Ma
ior McKinley's dodging position ON the
Chinese question. Why does he refuse
to discuss it? Are the negro question
and the "solid South" 50 absorbing to
the Majors mind? Will he not conde'
scend to explain how it came that his
name does not appear among either the
yeas or nays2 If the Major absolutely
refuses, will not the Rep try its handY
