An English Express Locomotive.

A correspondent Of the Railroad Gazette
says: A passenger engine on the London and
Northwestern Railway has recently run Isl >
600 miles in Is months. This was chiefly
composed of daily trips from Manchester 70
London and back, q distance Of 375 miles.
The engine has cylinders II inches by "a
inches, four wheels coupled 6 feet inches
diameter, and pair Of leading wheels which
accommodate themselves to curves by means
Of lateral motion, which is regulated by
double inclined surfaces on the top of the
axle boxes and through which the weight is
transmitted from the springs. This gives .
slight lexibility to the wheel base. The
load taken was very regular, and consisted
Of about one hundred tons for more than
half the journey, and about $50 tons for the
remainder. During the Is months all the
wheels we're turned and the axle boxes met
aled up; and at the end of the period the
engine was sent into the shop for fortnight,
when the chief repairs consisted of new set
Of tubes, and the engine was again placed on
her usual run Of 375 miles daily, aud bids
fair to have completed her 100000 miles at
the end of this year. The engine is worked
by one crew of men only. The boiler is
kept in excellent condition by being blown
out at the end Of every trip, and is filled up
by means Of its own injectors using steam
from stationary boiler IN the engine shed.
1t Is interesting to note that the hard de-
posit Of scale In the boiler and the corrosion
of the plates has been very much reduced In
this and similar boilers by inserting block
of zinc. In this manner It Is found that 20
pounds Of zinc dissolves every month In .
boiler undergoing hard work. But the ab-
sence Of corrosion and the readiness with
which the scale falls off amply repay this
expenditure of zinc. The engine above
mentioned was built at Crewe, in March,
and Is Of the ordinary straight link type.

A STARTLING THEORY.
Does Scarlet Fever Originate With Equine
Indispositions?

Just now, when there Is quite little scar.
let fever in the city, more especially in the
peninsular, this singular idea Of Its origin,
taken from yesterdays N. Y. Times, will be
interesting: .....
"a somewhat startling theory of the origin
of scarlet fever Is propoundsd by DR.. J. G.
Peters, prominent and influential physician
of this city. At meeting of The Columbia
Veterinary College last night DR.. Peters ad-
vanced the hypothesis that scarlet fever
originates among horses, and that each case
of this disease may be ultimately traced to
these animals. The arguments, facts and
data furnished to fortify the theory are for
midable, and will go far to convince Inquir-
ers. Should this discovery be amply veri-
fed, the time may come when equine virus
must be used for purposes of incubation.
and the scourge of childhood may be averted
as the smallpox now is, by skillful physi-
clans and surge ons." ..a.

injury. Now, programme of ballads, songs
without words, selections from light operas,

church hymns, played by Thomas and his
fifty men, would, I'll wager, pack this house

POETRY.
LITTLE FEET.

Too little feet so small that both may nestle
In one caressing hand,
Two tender feet upon the untried border
, OF life's mysterious land.
Dimpled and soft, and pink as peach-tret
blossoms
In Aprils fragrant days;
How can they walk among the briery tangle,
Edging the worlds rough ways?
These white-rose feet along the doubtful fu
ture
Must bear n woman's load
Alas! since woman has the heaviest burden,
And walks the hardest road
How shall 1t be with her, the tender stranger,
Fair-faced and gentle-eyed,
Before whose unstained feet the worlds rude
highway
Stretches so strange and wide?
All! who may read the future? For our dar-
ling
We crave all blessings sweet,
And pray that He who feeds the crying ra-
vens
Will guide the baby's feet.

A Lonorive with Four Cylinders
Boston Herald.

The Boston and Albany railroad Is building
at Its Boston shops freight engine with four
cylinders, the first ever made In this country.
There will be two small and two large cyl
inders, the former exhausting into the latter,
so IS to utilize the steam after 1t has once
been used. The cylinders are so arranged
that live steam can be used In both pairs ct
The same time, thus giving an immense
power, but the main idea 10 to utilize the
exhaust steam. The engine will have one
OF the big boilers and fire boxes, so as to
carry 100 pounds Of steam, the same - the
first-class passenger locom ,,ives, but the
drivers will be only -four and half feet In
diameter. The machinery Is the same as
that Of an ordinary engine, and, u the four
cylinders fail to work well, they can be
taken out and one pair put IN.

Ordway Thinks the Constitution Humbug.


Gov. Ordway, of Dakota, speaking Of the
result of the recent vote on the adoption of
the new constitution, said:
"The whole thing Is an absurdity from
first to last, and will end In smoke. As soon
as the capital commission had selected Bis
marck, feeling of hostility to Its removal
from Ysnkton sprung up In the southern
portion Of the Territory, and out OF 1t grew
the action which resulted In the submission
and adoption Of this so called constitution.
These people proposed to establish State
government, virtually setting Congress at
defiance. Their action was utterly Illegal.
took no active part one way or the other,
because regarded the whole affair as hum
bug. They will, Of course, send committee
to Congress to push the matter, but they
stand no chance Of succeeding. Even If the
people Of the Territory were united ON this
question, Democratic House Is not very
apt to admit Republican Dakota. The whole
scheme Is impracticable. have recon-
mended that Congress settle the whole Da-
kota problem by authorizing an election OF
delegates throughout the Territory to con-
ventioE, and that this convention, represent
ing every county In Dakota, prepare and
submit TO Congress constitution for either
one or two States, as they may see ft. The
Presidential election win then be over and
Congress can handle the matter more impair
TALLY than Is possible at this time"
Speaking Of the vacant judgeship, Gov.
Ordway said: .g4
"No one has yet been appointed In place
Of Judge Kidder. My impression Is that
some outside man will be taken. State Sem
ator Fuller, Of Illinois, Gen. John Coburn,
Of Indiana, and OK Congressman Burroughs,
Of Michigan, are al spoken Of, but i can

So she sold her last suit
To buy meat fer the brute,
And up town in her nightgown she went.
