true in every particular, he would still fail
in fastening any blame upon the officers

uniairness OF disposition shown in charging
the officers OF the Inflated steamer with
explicit violations Of duty in advance OF the

likely create false professions with The

pre:ext for attacking the liquor license
system OF West Virginia. The writer
would have his readers believe that if no
license for the sale Of liquor existed in this
State, that the accident could not have oc.
Cured. Because, forsooth, there were. as
he alleges, some TASKS OF LIQUOR in the hos.
session OF some Passengers land upon what

must be attributed all the horrors OF that
Tuesday night. Does tTocsin" mean to
imply that had prohibition laws been in
force in this State, no bottles OF LIQUOR
would have been carried BY the travellers
on the boat? Does be not know that upon
excursions where no public bar is had,
more liquor is drank from the pri.
vate resources OF individuals, than
would be taken were each drink to be paid
for separately? More is invariably drank
Just from the freedom OF access to the sup.

Not only has prohibition in this country,
so far as tried, failed TO prohibit, but il has
been, like all ill.considered legislation, the
prolific cause OF many evils. In
States where prohibition has been
tried, the result has been IN actual increase
in the number Of cases OF drunkenness,
and with it an increase OF crime. Deprive
the people OF our State OF all right to deal
in liquor under proper restrictions, and

Public Lands,

WASHINGTON, October 12-The General
Commissioner of the Land Office, in his an
nual report, states that the land now en-
braced within the limits of the public do
main amount to 9OO,OOO,0OO acres, including
Alaska. He recommends that pre-emption
be abolished, as the homestead laws cover
all cases now arising. The public sale of
lands last year amounted to 1888 acres,
embracing 5016 acres near Toledo, Ohio,
which were sold for $16,735, an average OF
1888 per acre. Respecting the forfeiture of
railroad grants the Commissioner says
1.-THE status of various grants for railroad
purposes, where roads have not been con-
structed within the time prescribed by law,
was reported to Congress on March 28th last.
The absence of legislative action touching
the renewal of these grants, or declaring the
forfeiture thereof, has seriously embarrassed
the work of this Office. 1t is not deemed ex-
pedient to certify additional lands to the
railroad companies. nor to award to the COM
panies the lands in dispute between them
and the settlers or other claimants pending
the determination Of Congress in the prem
ises. Large numbers Of settlers are occupy
such lands and it is important to know
whether they can receive their titles from
the United States, or whether they will be
required to purchase from the railroad
companies" Commissioner Mcfarland sub
mits an estimate of the salaries and con-
tingent expenses for the next fiscal year
amounting in the aggregate to S453, $40,
which increases the amount appropriated for
the current fiscal year $33, $40 The increase
includes $4,000 for an Assistant Commits

The New MISUNDERSTANDING.
ILondon Globe.l


The prominence long enjoyed by dyna-
mite as an explosive power has now at last
provoked a rival. The new agent of destruc-
ton has received the name of Panclastite
and is highly spoken Of by those who have
assisted at the preliminary tests of it's eff
cacy. The two competitors for the highest
honors in this branch of the art of killing,
were pitted formally against one another at
the port Of Cherbourg a few days ago, when
the old established tavOrite seems to have
been beaten by several lengths. The expert
ments were conducted in this way: A num-
Der OF holes were bored at low water in the
rocks, which are covered when the tide comes
in. Some Of them were filled with mining
charges of dynamite and some with panclas-
tlte, but the quantity OF the former was in
each case double that of the latter. Never
theless, when the charges were fired beneath
the effect of the explosion were invariably,
as it is said, mnch more severe in the case OF
the new than Of the old compound. The
trial was repeated several times in different
places by placing the rival charges in differ
ent formations OF rocks, but always with the
same result. Nor is it necessary for there to
be more resistance to the one than to the
other agent When a charge of planclastite
was laid at the side Of railway line and
ignited, it shattered the metal into pieces
and did still more damage to the sleeper than
would have been done by dynamite. The
credit Of the new compound seems to be es-
tablished beyond the risk of doubt. There
is, however, this important difference be-
tween it and the old agent Of destruction,
which may be deemed an advantage for one
or the other, according to the purpose inten-
ded. The force necessary for exploding dy-
Mantle is presented by the blow of a twelve
pound iron weight dropped on it from a
height of about nine inches, and common
mining gunpowder is exploded by the same
weight from height Of about two feet
Panclastite, however, will not explode when
struck by the same weight at any height less
than thirteen feet, so that it is apparently
safer as well as more powerful material

Proposed Revision of the French Con.
stltutlOn.

NJ. NaQuet, the plucky French Deputy
who, single-handed, achieved the passage OF
the divorce law, has set the politicians OF
France in flutter of apprehension and anx-
iety by the announcement that Immediately
upon the reopening of Parliament he will
introduce bill for revision of the Consti-
tuition that will practically amount to revo-
luton. Aiming to prevent the evil effects
of frequent Ministerial crises, he proposes to
abolish the Ministers altogether, or, at least,
Ministers in Parliament. 3 His programme
involves, the absolute separation of legisla-
tive and executive power, the selection of
the Ministry by the President Of the repub-
lie, regardless of the sen 1iment Of the Cham
bers, and the exclusion from the Chambers
of all members Of the government. This, it
will be observed, is, in some important re-
speGts an approach toward the American
system, of which M. Naquet has long been a
close student. Special, attention is paid to
the scheme by all classes of politicians in
France, because its author is in the habit Of
whatever he undertakes.

Revolution of Driving Wheels.

An account is given in English journals of
the performance of locomotive engine ON
the Great Northern Railroad, which recently
carried the Duke Of Edinburgh from Leeds
to London, 1861 miles in three hours, Or at
the rate of sixty-two miles per hour, with
out allowing for one stop that was made at
Grantham This speed has frequently been
equalled, and sometimes passed for short
distances, says an exchange, but is remark
able as the average rate for such long
journey. The engine has driving wheels
eight feet in diameter, or two feet larger
than the driving wheels of American en-
gines, which have been dubbed Jumbo" on
account of their great size. To accomplish
the trip in the time given, the driving wheel
must have made 219 revolutions per minute,
or more than $4,000 in three hours A six
foot driver making the same number of rev.
olutions per minute would travel only
al miles in the same time, or, to put it in
the other way, six-foot driver to accom-
plish the same distance in the same time,
would have to revolve 288 times instead of
219 per minute. Centrifugal force will come
in after while to limit the speed of the big
gest and most powerful locomotives.

4 Substitute for Black Walnut.
Toronto Globe. |

Toronto Globe.
Black birch, which is rapidly coming into
favor, is a close-grained and very handsome
wood, and can be easily stained to resemble
walnut exactly. 1t is just as easy to work
and is suitable for nearly, if not all, the pur-
poses to which black walnut is at present ap-
piled. Birch is much the same color as
cherry, but the latter wood is now very
scarce, and consequently dear. 1t is diff
cult thing to obtain cherry at $50 per l.
600 feet, while birch wood can be had at any
saw mill at 81 per 1000 feet. When proper
ly stained it is almost impossible to distin-
guish the difference between it and walnut,
as it is susceptible of a beautiful polish equal
to any wood now used in the manufacture of
furniture. In the forests throughout Ontario
birch grows in abundance, especially if the
land is not too boggy. There is q great diff
ference of the wood of different sections.
Where the land is high and dry the wood is
firm and clear; but if the land is low and
wet the wood has a tendency TO be soft and
often of blush color. In all the northern
regions it can be found in great abundance,
and as the trees grow to such an enormous
size little trouble is experienced in producing
large quantities. "eu

THE COMET.
It's Final Plunge Into the Sun.

New York papers are coming to hand with
long articles relating to the new comet,
which seems to be of great interest to as
tronomers. 1t has been determined that the
comet is moving at the rate of l SOC, 900 miles
day. 1t is said to be approaching the
earth, and will be nearest early in October,
coming within a distance eff 100000 miles
from our globe. 1t will soon disappear from
our view in this part Of the world and will
be visible only in the Southern Hemisphere
when nearest the earth. The nucleus is
known to be solid. This comet is travelling
in constantly lessening orbit. 1t is ex-
pected to revisit the glimpses of our moon in
1884, and its ultimate destination is con
ceded to be the sun. Professor Boss thus
predicts it's final destruction:
"At each fresh plunge into the solar atmos-
phere, the comet, which at that time is
moving with the enormous velocity of $40
miles per second, will be impeded in its
flight. The result of this will be to make
the intervals between successive returns con-
tinually diminish in length. Hotter and
hotter will become the mad flight of the
splendid comet, under the all-powerful and
increasing attraction of the sun. At last,
and, as l believe, before the close of the
present century, the comet, on some of its
recurring approaches to the sun, will meet,
low down in the solar atmosphere, an OBJ
struction too great to be resisted. 1t will
then fall headlong into the sun, and vanish
from the catalogue of comets forever This
catastrophe may occur next year or some
years later, but believe it must come soon
er or later. l am more inclined to believe
that the destruction Of the comet will take
place suddenly, rather than by a gradual
wasting away. 1t is even possible that the
event will occur without our knowledge; but
if we are fortunate enough, some time when
the comet is on it's homeward journey to the
sun, we shall watch him gradually ap-
preaching the grand luminary of day until
lost in its rays, and then we shall watch in
vain for his emergence. This may seem to
be a bold prediction, and l may have made
some error, whose existence l do not now
suspect. If so, l shall be glad to have it
pointed out, and at all events shall watch
for the first rude elements of the comet
which are yet to be computed with fervent
interest"

A Serpent Among the Books.

A gentleman in India went to his library
one day and took book from the shelves
AS he did so he felt a slight pain in his fin
ger like the prick of pin. He thought
that pin had been stuck by some careless
person in the cover of the book. But soon
his finger began to swell, and then his arm,
and then his whole body, and in few days
he died, 1t was not pin among the books,
but small and deadly serpent There are
many serpents among the books nowadays.
They nestle in the foliage of some of our
most fascinating literature; they coil around
the flowers whose perfume intoxicates the
senses. We read, we are charmed by the
plot of the story, by the skill by which the
characters are sculptured or grouped, by the
gorgeoasress of the word painting hard
ly feel the pin-prick of the evil that is irisin-
uated. But it stings and poisons when
the record la made up, on what q multitude
will be inscribed: Poisoned by serpents
among the books"
