AN ACT OF HEROISM.
Two Brothers I'm Saving the Lives of
Passengers Meet Death.

On Thursday afternoon two railroad
men, John and Michael Sullivan, broth
ers, were at work on the Pittsburg divi-
sion of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad,
near Demmler station. John Sullivan
was section boss of the sub division be-
tween McKeesport and Fort Perry, and
he had made tour along the track to
see if everything was in proper condi-
ton. He found rail that was not quite
straight, so he and his brother took
heavy trackman's crowbar and lifted the
rail up to straighten it. While they
were busily at work the after
noon accommodation train east,
with a heavy load of passengers,
came along. There was a curve Just
below the place where the men were
working, and they did not see the train
until it was almost on them. They took
in the situation at glance. The rail
which they had been fixing was lifted
up, and the large crowbar was wedged
tightly in such position that the train
would certainly be thrown from the
track unless the bar was removed. On
one side of the track was a hill, and on
the other steep bank running down to
the river, so if the train were thrown
from the track while under full head
way of steam there would undoubtedly
be an appalling loss of life. The
men seized the bar and began frantically
to pull and twist it about. The engineer
of the train saw them, but could not
stop. He says that their efforts to free
the crowbar and lower the rail were
frantic and like the workings of mad
men, and they seemed to forget their
own danger. The bar was loosed and
the rail lowered just as the train reached
the spot, but The men who had worked
so nObly paid for their doing so dearly.
The engine struck them, and killed John
instantly and mangled Michael so fright
fully that he died in a short time. The
men were married and leave families.

The April number Of the above ster-
ling magazine has been received, and the
high standard as a journal for the farm
and freside which it has long since
adopted, Is in every respect fully main
tanned. Its table of contents is, as usual,
interesting, instructive and varied, con-
sisting of well selected articles on agri-
culture. horticulture, stock, poultry,
etc, household, scientific and miscel-
Ianeous subjects, besides correspondence
and editorial comments on topics of
present interest to the farmers, while its
ever popular fashion department is as
attractive as ever to farmers wives and
daughters.
The Miscellaneous Department OF
this number Of the Fdrmer $
Monthly is specially interesting
1t contains the addresses Of Colo
mel Thomas Hardeman, President OF
the Georgia State Agricultural Society
and of General William N. Browne,
Professor of Agriculture in the State
University, delivered to the aforemen-
toned society at Townsville on the
22d of February last The publication
of addresses and essays from the most
distinguished authorities on agriculture
in the State, which is now an established
feature Of this journal. alone renders it
invaluable to the planter. If it con-
tanned nothing else this feature Of itself
would make the Monthly well worth its
low subscription price-$2 per annum.

Write Plainly.
Boston Herald,

The rejection of the manuscript of an
unfamiliar author is perhaps oftener on
account of illegible handwriting than of
lack of merit There is no greater tor
ture for an editor than to have to attempt
to decipher bad manuscript, and the
sense, especially of poem, is frequent
ly entirely lost in the tangled maze of
wretched penmanship. Sir Francis JEFF
frey knew SO well the difficulty of form.
ing a correct judgment of an article by
a reading 10 manuscript, that, when he
sent in his first article after he had retired
from the Edinburgh Regteao, he had an
understanding with Napier, his success
sor, that it should not be read until it
appeared in the proof. A few years ago
the editor of the Saturday ReCieD was
accustomed to have every article which
appeared as if it might be worth accept
ance put into type before deciding upon
it, for as Charles Lamb says, there is no
such raw and unsatisfactory reading as
an article in manuscript. The same
practice is followed by the editor of
HGrper's Magazine, it is said. Even au-
thors of wide experience, like Thomas
Moore and MacaulaY, were seldom able
to form judgment of their own works
until they had seen how they looked in
print

Political Morals.

The Wilmington Star, commenting on
Mr.. Stephens reprimand of Senator Hill
for exposing the treachery and duplicity
of Malone in selling himself out to the
Radicals, approves the views expressed
by US in regard to Mr.. Stephens censure
of Mr.. Hill, and says:
1--WE doubt if Mr. Stephens surveyed
the whole field when he unbosomed him
self to Mrs. Hardacre. Can he have
seen where such criticism would lead
him : Does he pretend to believe that a
Senator has right to betray his party
friendsS Does he believe that Virginia
Democrats who are Readjusters are
satisfied with Mahone's course when he
takes up his abode with the lifelong
enemies of the South and Virginia. Be-
cause man is Senator is he relieved
of decent regard for consistency
and honorS Why should not a man
elected as a Democrat be exposed when
he crosses over and seats himself with
Republicans and allies himself with
them for a consideration Whilst we
do not regard Mr.. Hill as very wise or
q very discreet leader, he made no mis-
take, as we believe, when he compelled
Malone to uncover. He made him take
his true position and show his real
colors The country now understands
precisely who Malone is and where he
stands. His disguise has been stripped
from him, and he now stands in all of
his ugly nakedness with millions of eyes
looking steadily at him.
''But Mr.. Stephens lays down as
principle of action that which would dis
rupt all parties and destroy all party OBJ
legations He talks as if he thought a
man could be so excessively conscien-
tious that he could not act with any
party. This may be so, but such per-
son should be careful not to assume the
responsibilities of Office unless he pur-
poses to maintain party relations and
party discipline, and aid in enforcing and
disseminating party principles. If a man
for any cause cannot identify himself
with any existing party that is right
enough in itself. This is free country,
and man has perfect right to remain
independent and to stand aloof from all
party organizations. But the point is,
that if man chooses to identify himself
with a party and to accept office from
said party he is bound to stand by his
assumed obligations and to be faithful
to the principles he processes to hold.
He cannot, with honor, hold
Office under one flag and fight under
the other flag. The higher the office
man holds the greater the crime if he
prove unfaithful. A Senator in the
United States Congress ought to be a
man of honor, and to be trustworthy. II
he sell out his party he will sell out his
honor with it. He cannot run with the
hare and hold with the hounds"

At last, after a lapse of thirty years,
some atonement is likely to be made in
France to the victims of the I'd of De-
cember, 1851. Under the present gov
eminent a careful inquiry has been made
into the number of persons who suffered
by the Bonsparte coup detdt, and into
the whereabouts of their legal represen-
tatives. 1t turns out that no record what
ever was made of those who persisted in
the street massacres or in the subsequent
private executions. 1t has been possible,
however, with the help of the existing
archives, to sitt the operations of the IN
famous mixed tribunals" before which
nearly $4,000 citizens were dragged.
About one-half of these were put to
death, imprisoned or transported to Cay
enne or Algeria. In the case of about
5000, the officials have succeeded in find
ing either the persons sentenced or their
legal representatives, and q bill giving
them annuities has been introduced in
the Chamber of Deputies. When this
bill comes up we may expect a debate
which, taken in connection with Victor
Hugo's account of the Bonapartist conspi-
racy. will form terrible indictment, and
should effectualy dispose of the Napo-
leonic legend.

A MINISTER IN A BAD FIx.-The Rev.
Lloyd Morgan. confined in the Jail at
Kittaning, Pa, awaiting sentence for a
criminal Offense, attempted to escape on
Sunday, and made spectacle of himself
by a miserable failure. He was acting
as inside turnkey, and was permitted to
go wherever he pleased. He got into
cell from which two prisoners had
escaped, and by piling up bricks, which
he tore from the wall, he managed to
reach the window and to get his head
through. In his struggle to push his
way further he kicked away the bricks
and was left dangling, unable to extri-
cate himself. To facilitate his egress he
had thrown all his clothing out, and
when found had nothing on but his hat.

Considerable excitement has been
caused in the French medical world by
the proposal of the authorities to replace
the Sisters of Mercy, who at present act
as nurses in the hospitals, by lay female
assistants. This is warmly opposed by
men OF all shades of political and
religious opinion, who, knowing the
efficiency and self-denial of the Sisters
in their work of charity, are anxious
that they should not be interfered with.
1t is a recognized fact, even in Protestant
countries, that as sick nurses the Sisters
of Mercy are unexcelled; it is therefore
difficult to imagine what advantage the
auth critics hope to gain.

The French Three Per Cents.

Since the development of the fact that
the French three per cents. were placed
at S34 or 16f below par. the Republican
papers claim it as proof that the American
three per cents. could not be sold at par.
In truth, says the Bridgeport Farmer,
no parallel can be drawn between the
two loans. The French bonds are to
run seventy-two years-that is, such of
them as are not sooner redeemed. Each
year Ind of them are designated by a
drawing of chances, for redemption.
Thus, no holder of one of them has any
certainty of being allowed to hold it more
than one year, and each year renews
the danger of his bond being called in.
Therefore, the bonds would not be taken
as an investment by any one, and the
government was obliged to place them
at low rate. Indeed, they could not
probably have been placed at all, without
the combination of the low rate and the
chance of early redemption. Under
these conditions. the holder of a bond
has a chance of clearing 164 per cent. on
his investment in one year, besides re-
ceiving 8 per cent. interest upon it. This
proved SO tempting to spectators that
the amount of the loan was subscribed
for some fifteen times over. American
3 per cents would stand upon a different
footing They would be taken by in
vestors. That they would be readily
taken is evident not only from the large
premium upon per cents but from the
statements of such leading bankers as
Fisk & Hatch, of New York. Beyond
the rate of interest, there is no similarity
between the French loan and the pro-
posed American per cents, and conse-
quently no fair parallel between them
can be drawn. None would have been
attempted but for the desire of the Re-
publican press to justify the defeat of
the funding bill

4 denomination of the census returns
shows that the location of the centre of
population of this country near Cincin-
natl was an error, and that it really lies
in Kentucky, on the south side of the
Ohio river. Since the beginning of the
century the centre has moved steadily
West, but has always been located IN the
Northern States. Its movement across
the river into Southern territory shows
that the population of the country is
drifting that way. There is every reason
to believe that it will never go North
again, but that this section, increasing
in population, will locate the centre of
this country among the Southern States.

The Chicago Times has taken the
trouble to interview the most prominent
Democrats in each State in the Union
upon the question of the tariff, and on
Saturday printed the interviews. In the
West and Northwest the prevailing SEN
timent was found to be one of advocacy
of low tariff principles. In Iowa, Ne
braska, Minnesota, Kansas, Illinois and
Wisconsin the Democrats had little hest
tation in declaring for tariff for revenue
only. In parts of Michigan, Indiana
and Ohio the sentiment is exactly the re.
verse. The prevailing opinion in the
South is against active agitation on the
subject.

MINING ENTERPRISE IN New MEXICO.
Santa Fe is now full of enterprising
men from the East, intent on mining.
1t is the great centre of the rich mining
country of New Mexico. Until a com.
paratively recent date the gold and sill
yer has been too inaccessible to warrant
large operations; but now the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe road is transport
ing thousands of travellers down the rich
valley of the Rio Grande to the border
of Old Mexico, and will soon carry them
into that country. Freight trains heavily
loaded with ore and silver bricks are
rumbling along the Rio Grande, where
two years ago the silence of nature was
undisturbed. Towns are springing up
in night, easy of access TO mountains
full of precious metals, awaiting the
muscle and pluck of the prospector.

Cheap Grade" of Pianos, by whatever maker
produced, we hold, and invite inspection to
prove it, that these instruments are lin no way
inferior to any other Stencil Pianos.
We have purchased these Pianos for spot
cash, under a special guarantee in regard to
the maker-freQuently an unknown party in
Stencil PianoS-and privilege to name them
v hat we please. We could have called them by
any other name, so long as we did not infringe
upon the rights and privileges of others. How
