PNEUMATIC Snow DIspERsER--The clear
ance fsnow from railways often proves a
difficult problem. An apparatus of pueumat.
ic character has been recently invented by
Mr.. Stock, for the purpose. This apparatus
is placed in front of the engine, and contains
distinct steam engine working blower.
At the front is sort of funnel. opening for
wards, the size of the mouth being regulated
BY means of hinged door and toothed sec
tor. The snow is here drawn in by suction.
and finally divided into flakes by a wheel
with palettes on its covered surface this is
driven By belt Then the flakes pass on
to the fan-blowing machine which drives
them into horizontal tube above the carri-
age, capable of being placed obliquely so that
the snow may be thrown of the line The
fan blower makes six hundred revolutions
a minute, and is capable of displacing two
thousand one hundred cubic metres, of air
minute The escape steam from the engine
is directed into the tube just referred to- to
increase the:draught NIr. Stock considers
his machine will clear the way az quickly
as gang of FIVE hundred workmen.

The INVESTIGATION now in progress con-
corning the management of the aims houses
in Massachusetts has already developed
the fact that the white paupers of the State
referred to are not only treated worse than
the negro paupers of the South, bur that
the indifference, neglect, ignominy aud
cruelty to which they are subjected amount
to positive inhumanty. And yet in any
comparison that may be drawn between
Northern and Southern civilization blythe
republican writer's and speakers of the
North. especially by those of Massachusetts,,
they always allude to the people of the
South as greatly inferior to those of the
North, and as little better than semi-bar-
barians. Southern people don't pretend to
be better than their fellow citizens of the
North, but critical comparison will satisfy
any unprecedented mind that they are no
worse.

which occurred last Saturday morn

months, and IS days. Deceased
had been ailing for several years,
but his illness was not considered
very serious until about the first Of
last August, when medical aid was
secured. Several physicians were
consulted, and nearly all of them
pronounced his case doubtful. He
kept declining gradually until death
relieved him. Deceased came to
this place nearly thirty-fve years
ago and lived on the same farm
until his death. He was a good
neighbor, kind and affectionate
husband. A large circle of friends
sympathize with the family.
