Railroad Transportation.

Hon. Joseph Nimmo, Chief of the Bureau Of
Statistics, upon the internal commerce of the
country, has made his annual report. 1t en-
braces discussion of the following subjects {:
A reduction of the cost of transportation on
railroads practical determination Of railroad
freight charges; railroad considerations or
pooling organizations causes of failure Of
the law to supply and demand, and of compe-
tition to regulate freight charges on railroads
on free highways Of commerce the practi-
cal working of railroad considerations the
practicability of governmental recognition
Of railroad confederations for the pool
of railroads. Under the head of Reduc-
ton in the Cost of Transportation on Rail-
roads," the reduction in cost of Transports
ton on the railroads of the country gen.
orally is very clearly indicate by table en-
bracing data with respect to thirteen leading
railroads. 1t appears that the number of tons
Of freight carried on the thirteen roads in
creased from As, 557 ,0O2 tons during 1873 to 7S,
$50, ,913 tons during 1885, an increase of about
II per cent. The receipts from freight, how
ever, increased from SIP, ,004, ,648 in 1873 to
$143, 3SS, 17S in 1880, an increase of only about
% per cent. This small rate increase in receipts
in proportion to the increase in traffic was due
to the fact that the average rate per ton charged
on these thirteen railroads fell from l. n cent
per ton per mile in 1878 to LOT cent per ton per
mile in 1880, q decrease of 39.5 per cent. A
commission of experts is recommended for in

who, however, gave way when glided
up, and we SKINNED away together. I
was too happy to speak; the glorious
possibility of what might be awaiting me
burst upon me with vividness. But pres
emily I became conscious that she wcs
speaking to me. She was praising me
at the time, which opened up to me nn
opportunity which you may be sure
made the most of. She blushed with
pleasure at my praise, and SO, both of US
in a conscious hutter, we came upon
Clara Alden, ioyously dressed and es-
corted by her Englishman. They
stopped in front of us, Miss Alden say
ing as they did SO:
"Have you been to the little sitting
rooms curtained off at that end? No
one seems to have discovered them yet,
though they are one of the features OF
the evening. think it is such q good
idea, and they are beautifully decorated (;
but when we looked in now both of them
were empty. However, as soon as some
body leads they viii be full enough.
Suppose you two lead"
She skated off with her companion,
and Daisy and I went to obey her be-
hest. But into that little curtained
apartment you are forbidden TO enter.
Suffice it for you that, when presently
Daisy and I emerged we encountered
Miss Alden at once, and when she
leaned toward me and whispered cam
to congratulate YOU 2" I bowed my
head in happy assent.

Blasting Without Drilling.

An Austrian engineer named Lauer
has discovered q new method of disin-
tegrating rock. The chief feature of his
system is to employ a hollow cylinder
like a gas pipe, and to place the dyn-'
amite cartridge, not as hitherto in hole
bored in a rock to be blasted, but in the
cylinder in question. The cartridge
only touches the surface of the rock
which it is desired to shatter. The ex-
plosion of the dynamite is effected by
means of electricity, and the effect is
said to be greater than with the usual
cartridge in hole bored in the rock.
The rock is shattered into fragments so
small that fair stream is able to wash
them away without help, whereas in the
case of gunpowder the rock is only split
up into small blocks more or less large
and troublesome to remove. The Lauer
system is calculated to effect saving of
fully 40 per cent. as compared with the
old system.

NATIONAL THANKSGIVING.
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES o.
AMERICA-A PROCLAMATION.

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERIoA-A PROCLAMATION.
It has long been pious custom of our peo-
pie with the closing of the year to look back
upon the blessings brought to them in the
changing course of the seasons, and to return
whom they flow. And although at this period,
when the falling leaf admonishes Us that the
time of our sacred duty is at hand. our nation
still lies in the shadow of a great bereavement,
and the mourning which has filled our hearts
still finds us in o sorrowful expression toward
tho God before whom we but lately bowed in
grief and supplication, yet the countless benc-
fits which have been showered upon us during
the past twelve months tsl for our fervent
gratitude and make it fitting that We should re-
joice with thankfulness that the Lord, in His
infinite mercy, has most signally favored our
country and our people.
Peace without and prosperity within have
been vouchsafed to us. No pestilence has
visited our shores. The abundant privileges of
freedom which our fathers left us in their
wisdom are still our increasing heritage, and If
in parts of our vast domain some affection
has visited our brethren in their forest homes.
yet even this calamity has been tempered aid
in a manner sanctihed by a generous compass
sion for the sufferers which had been called
forth throughout our land.
For all these things it is meet that the voice
of the Nation should go up to God i'll devout
homage.
Wherefore I, Chester A. Arthur, President
of the United States, do recommend that all
the people observe Thursday, the oath day of
November instant, as day Of national thanks
giving and prayer, by ceasing so far as may be
from their secular labors, and meeting in their
several places of worship, there to join in as
cribing honor and praise to Almighty God,
whose goodness has been SO manifest in our
history and in our lives and offering earnest
prayers that His bounties may continue to us
and to our children.
In witness whereof have hereunto set my
hand and caused the seal of the United States
to be affixed.
Done at the city ef Washington this 4tt
day of November, in the year of our Lord one

one hundred and sixth.

ORIGIN OF THE FIRST UNITED

1t limited to the people all in language not unkind,

On obversc side the Sun appeared, apparently from
heaven,
And just below Dial and the date 1887;
On TeUerse side endless chain of thirteen links

To keep this sentiment alive through all the future
years,

From all the various incidents we find the evidence
That Franklin to his country gave the first Of copper
cents;
Now, all uehearted citizens in praise of franklin

Men ana Women as Workers.

Leaving laziness and mere Iymphatic
indifference out of the question, men and
women differ much in natural tendency
to work. A man may be very far from
idle, and yet have none Of that agreeable
instinct Of activity which is born with
some people. We must also distinguish
between activity in q favorite study or
purpose and mere labor. Absolute toll
we may put on one side. But we must
draw a line everywhere between labor in
which the whole of the force and sugges-
ton has to come from within and to
which the inducements and solicitations
lie outside. Inclination being supposed
equal, it is more easy to get through any
course of business in which one thing
turns ND after another to excite the at
tention and quicken brain and hands,
than to carry through task in which
the immediate goals of exertion are not
near, and the internal spring of effort
has to be wound up from time to time
without the help of tangible, outward
Hoe age.
There is an old rhyme-which was
probably unknown to Mr.. Mill, for in
his "Subjection to Women" he treats
the point as q new one-which says,
"That from rise of morn TO set of sun,
woman's work is never done" That is
quite true but if it is hardship, the
hardship is mitigated by the fact that
woman's household duties have "con-
catenation accordingly" in which the
solicitation or impulse is supplied from
without, with the advantage (Which also
applies to much of mems ordinary bust
ness) that the social feelings count for q
good deal in the concatenation and the
impulse. It may be noted. meanwhile,
that women get through all their duties
and, no doubt, through their highest
studies-with less waste of power than
men, and with less apparent concern
about either pain or uneasiness. This
we do not mention as discovery, for it
is commonplace, but as thing to be
borne in nmind.-London Spectator.

rmE ELECTIONS.

In Wisconsin returns from forty out of
fifty counties in the State gives General Rusk,
Republican candidate for Governor, and the
rest of the Republican ticket, majority of
1000. The Assembly is composed of IS Repub-
licans, SO Democrats, Independents and 1
Prohibitionist, with seven to hear from. The
Senate Is composed of q Republicans
and 10 Democrats with two to hear from.
In Virginia returns from eighty counties and
cities, covering over two-thirds of the State,
make Oameron's (Readjuster) majority 30 far
about 1, 500. Thirty-two counties yet to hear
from will considerably increase these figures,
but from the estimates made from careful cal
culations his total majority in the State will
not reach 10000, and may fall much lower.
The Readjusters, however, still claim Cameron's
majority will not be less than 12,OO0. The
Legislature, according to the best esti-
mates that can be now made, stands:

An Effort tn Mob Madden.

The indignant citizens of Tifin, Ohio, made
an attempt few nights ago to mob the divin-
ity student, Madden, who shot Miss Phoebe
Bernard because she refused to marry him.
They collected at the Jail to the number of two
hundred, but the Sheriff had been forewarned
and was prepared for them. A scrimmage en-
sued during which several persons were injur-
ed. Madden has been taken to Toledo, Ohio,
for safe-keeping.
