Luminous Paint In Railway ceaehes-
English Railway New
We understand that one Of the car
riages on the Great Western railway
has been painted with the late Prof.
Balmain's- luminous paint, and many
scientific men and railway representa-
tives have taken advantage OF their in
vitation to take short trips on the Me-
tropolitan railway in order to test the
efficiency Of the experiment. It is graf
flying to have to that on all
hands considerable satisfaction has been
expressed at the result. A frst-class
carriage was chosen for the experiment,
and in the daylight its appearance Is
very little, IL any at all, different to or
binary paint, but during the time the
carriage Is exposed to the light the paint
Is rapidly absorbing the daylight, only
to give forth the same the moment
the carriage is travelling In the
dark. At first the light emitted is only
slight, not that the paint is any differ
ent in its Illuminating powers, but the
pupils of the eyes OF the traveller have
not yet become accustomed to the light,
for, rs the journey proceeds, the car
rage appears to be completely lighted
up, so much so that the passengers are
enabled easily to recognize the features
OF their fellow travellers; while the time
by 4 watch is clearly discernible. This
light lasts not for a short time, but con-
tinues for u period Of a few hours, when
the carriage can be again exposed to the
daylight and the same process Is gone
through. The paint, when once ap-
piled, will, II appears, last as long as
/ ordinary paint. 1t would be rash to say
that the Illuminated paint will ever su-
percede gas or oil on our railways, but
we may fairly hope that it will effect a
very great saving in those items. For
trains running long journeys, with tun-
nels occasionally intervening, the paint
will be very valuable inasmuch IS the
oil and gas a 10 entirely abandoned,

one Of the many uses to which this nov
81 invention can be applied. 1t might,
for instance, be profitably employed for
Illuminating the saloons and cabins of

senator s.y.ra r.sao..l Wan.

There can be no better proof that Bsyard
is a national man than the prominence he
enjoys before the people of this nation, with
no state prestige worth talking about. We
have lost sight too often in this country of the
truth that solid character is as essential to
greatness as brilliant powers and attainments.
That solldity and symmetry of character Mr..
Bayard possesses to as marked a degree as
any man whose record is open to the country.
He has shown himself to be governed by
principle, and his devotion thereto has often
drawn him into antagonism to what seemed
expediency. And the. South need not fear
that tie North will fail of appreciation for
such a man. He has won and he to-day
commands, the confidence, not of the party,
but OF the people. He has displayed a moral
heroism whenever he has had to face disa-
greeable alternatives that has been admirable.
He would rather be right than be President
for as long a time as Grant would like to hold
that posltion.-Boston Post.

House.

WASHINGTON, April l2.-The following
bills were introduced
By Warren: establishing a bureau of mines
and mining manufactures and statistics at the
interior department.
In the debate on the army appropriation
bill, Price commended that Sparks amendment
had nothing in it.
B%utterworth considered it important. It
vas differently construed by the President
and Democrats. If this amendment were
adopted it was proposed to count in a Demo-
cratic President in this chamber in 1881,
whether elected or not. If the President
vetoed it, the Democrats would raise the cry
of b~ayonets at the polls, but the people would
not be alarmed Oh deceived. He gave notice
the limits Of this plan proposed BY the Dem
ocrAts, providing for the arrest and punish
ment of men approaching the polls with
guns, pistols or deadly weapons.
Boyne said the amendment was simply
intended to keep the army from the polls.
Brown and Williams, of Wisconsin, de-
nounced the amendment as illogical and
unconstitutional, as abating the power of the
President under the constitution.
Cowgirl and Dunnell closed the debate, and
several amendments we're rejected.
Sparks amendment was amended so as to
allow the troops to be used on application of
the Legislature or Governor to repel domestic
violence. Adjourned. ea
WASHINGTON, April l2.-The army bill
was taken up and Ewing addressed the House.
WASHINGTON, April 13.-Mr. Ewing said
he was surprised that the Democrats were
criticised for not debating this question,
for the Republicans at the extra session had
voted for this very amendment which was a
Republican amendment. During twelve
years the Republican party had placed Of Re
publican bills 3S7 political riders. Although
not much in favor Of it, he did not tremble lest
the Republicans should arraign the Demo-
Gratis this fall for the same thing. He then
proceeded to vindicate the character and pur-
poses Of the various riders put on bills by the
Democrats, as eminently patriotic, economic
and necessary. He asserted that Robeson's
State had on its statute books a provision in
exactly the same words as this amendment
which Robson characterized so severely. An
other President might not be so good IS Pres
ident Hayes, and might use troops at the
polls; he might be a man Of ambition; he
might be General Grant. (The Republicans

THE NJ. K. s. T. BOOM.


n finance AoE Lyon 70 FRONT ny
The NJ, K. & T. railroad, under the
management of Jay Gould, is evidently
10 become formidable competitor of the
booming A. T. s s. F. road, for south
ern Pacific and Mexican traffic to the
Atlantic coast, and will, in some respects,
have evident advantages as a very direct
connecting link between both northern
and southern sea ports on both the Pa
cihc and Atlantic coasts Recent rumors
of this prospective growth of the NJ, K
& T. and an increase in the market value
Of its stock, are confirmed bya lengthy
telegram from Parsons, yesterday, CIV
ing the proceedings of the meeting there
Of the NJ, K. & It. board of directors.
More than 10000 shares, over two
thirds Of the present capital stock, were
represented, and the board unan-
imously voted to increase the
capital to $25,O0O,OOO for the
purpose of extending the line of the road
from Whitesboro, twenty-five miles from
Denison, Texas, TO Carmargo, on the Rio
Grande, distance of $50 miles; also to
build line from Muscogee to Fort
Smith, Arkansas; also TO build such ad
ditional lines as will secure the earliest
and closest connections with New Or
leans. The money has already been sub
scribed TO secure the speedy construction
Of all these contemplated lines of road,
adding some 600 miles to the $50 miles
Of road now owned and operated by this
company. The value and Importance of
the new lines to be built TO Kansas
and Missouri, as well as to Texas and
the now southwest, can hardly be com
puted. At Comargo the NJ, X. & T. will
connect with road running to the City
of Mexico, distance of about 600 miles,
and subsidized literally by the grant OF
Mexico in the interest OF Gen. Palmer
and the operators and builders of the
road, making in all about 1900 miles
under one management This manage
ment is understood to be that of Jay
Gould, and the board of directors con-
firmed this impression by referring par
ties from Independence, who offered a
subsidy for the extension of the road
southwest from Parsons, TO Mr.. Gould.
So after the apparently hopeless con-
dition of the NJ. X. g. T. railroad stock,
and Notwithstanding its great increase
and the enormous debt on the road, il
looks as if the stock might in a short
time, possibly next year, rise to a point
which may enable Lyon county, if its
people and officers watch the matter
carefully and act judiciously at the
right moment, to make another large re.
duction of the county debt. If the NJ
X. & T. stock can be made use of ia
extinguish say another $4,000 OF
county debt, the payment of the remain
ing 100000 could be accomplished by q
sinking fund in moderate number Of
years, and Lyon county with its rail
roads, location, and soil, free of debt
would boom beyond any other county Of
| Kansas.
