NUMBER l3.

In this the advance in Belleview is
very marked. Much new land has
been brought under culeivation. I'M
proved machinery has been introduce
ed-and, better still, vigorously used.
1t is safe to judge a people by their
conduct at large public assemblies of q
secular nature. The excellent conduct
of the crowd at the public sale held by
Il. ID. Carle was q very favorable test
OF character. Then all was just right.
To-day no judicious Radical Is a can
didate for any political office, and all
such will keep their eyes and ears op-
en- and their mouths shut on poll
itics. Politically BelIeview is sound
when the whole field is seen.
The last test to be noticed is the
graveyard in which community bu-
ries its dead. The cemetery on the
Saline is in q splendid location. Last
spring the grounds had become some
what out of repair, but Messrs. Edison,
Lashiey and others furnished the nee
essary funds, and then quite number
united and, under the supervision of
Messrs. James Logan AMI Henry Val
lie, cheerfuliy labored, and the result is
that the lot is enclosed with an excel
lent wire fence and the ground has
been neatly cleaned up and now equals
in beauty the family cemetery in Rus
sellville. 1t contains neat gravustones
and beds of blooming flowers.
But the most heart-touching feature
In 1t all, is the grave of the wife of Mr..
Tankster Carter, placed ut the root of
maple tree planted by her own toll
weary hands, and at the head OF q long
line Of the little graves of children and
grandchildren, as If even In death she
would tenderly guard the dust of those
whose short lives had shared so much
OF her loving care, and at the last be
able to say, "Behold T and the children
whom God hath given me; none of
them is lost"
Gazing on such touching spectacle,
we cannot doubt fellowship between
those that are on earth and those that
have entered the Unseen.
"When they find us bowed with anguish,
Do they sigh? Or when for them
Earth passes by, do they forget the sorrows
That beset their weIl-beloved?
Or do they wait-Oh be it thus!-
And watch beside the golden gate for usa

HendersOn's Iron and Steel Pro
cesses-A Novel Furnace.

From the Bellefonte (Pa.) Daily News.l
On Wednesday afternoon we were
shown by Mr.. Henderson, Jr., through
what is usually known as the steel
works near the glass mandatory, be-
low town, and we're permitted to OBJ
tain an inspection Of q wonderful com-
bination of machinery, which is now
complete in every particular and is
different from any other machinery in
the world. Several months ago, be-
fore the patents were all obtained, we
were shOwn through the same estab-
Iishment by Mr.. James Henderson, the
pateutee, and at that time for pruden-
tial reasons, were requested not to give
the result of our inspection to the pub
lie as all visitors were then refused
to the works, there being
enemies lurking near ready to take un-
fair advantage Of the ingenious con-
trivances of Mr.. Henderson's brain be-
fore he had obtained all his patents.
The recent dates of the patents on his
great "direct-acting gas furnace" are
shown as follows: Patented March
29th and Aug. 18th, 1870; September

A Letter Concerning Belleview

In summing up, the writer begs
leave to put on record a judgment oil
Belleview, which is deduction from
fourteen years experience and obser.
vation. In general he records q we'll
| marked advance in the right direc-
ton.
In order to analyze q people it is not
| necessary to enter every house daily
| and ascertain what they had for
breakfast. There are better tests.
The unity of all good and of all evil
makes it impossible to isolate a man
or a community. Weean Judge COM
munity by its business men.
A community containing such men
as Messrs. Edison, I.ashley, the Nc
Kinney brothers, Henry Vale, James
Logan, Judge Palmer, and the Bufords
is strong for good.
In forming Judgment, some, per-
haps, would look to the churches. In
that particular the outlook is good, be-
cause the intelligence of the people has
outgrown their ecelesiasticisnl, and will
soon demand rise.
Tue medical men are well read, skill
ful and gentiemanIy.
In Judging of a people, it is always
safe TO inspect the schools. All the
common schools ia Belleview are this
year in the hands OF young teachers,
with a majority of whom the writer is
acquainted. Each one has the key of
his school house; but it is not in all
cases clear that tbs teacher has the
key of the school. But, without ex-
ception, the schools are better than
they were ten years ago.
Tt is q. all times safe to judge OF O
people by their progress II agriculture

principal parts Of the furnace. In ii
| the gas is generated and forced through
neck where it mingles with hot air
and is forced into large circular ves-
gel in which the melting process takes
| place. This is arranged with nova
| BILE revolving hearth, which is mount
| ed on rotary platform that csn be
raised or lowered into position by hy-
| draulic power. The hearth is moved
by three-horse power engine and
makes three to four revolutions per
minute. It rests upon wheels and can
be run out on rails for the purpose OF
making repairs or renewing the pan
that contains the motion metal.
Hot air and cold air pipes connect
with air composers and with the boil
er, the various use of which we do not
understand. The furnace. which was
purposely constructed on q small scale
to serve as a model, will produce six
teen tons of iron or steel, in twenty
four hours. To generate the gas re-
quires 800 pounds of Ohio soft coal per
hour, Snow Shoe coal not being suita-
BILE for the purpose.
We have already alluded to the fact
that Mr.. Fearon Mann has made q
cold-chisel of the steel manufactured
at the steel works. A chisel was also
made at the nail works where the iron
will be tested in making nails.
The superiority of this furnace over
others seems to be that all the forces
are utilized, and there is absolutely no
waste of material. The cost of produc-
ing iron and steel is thus reduced over
three hundred per cent. Steel for
which from 10 to Is cents is asked can
be manufactured for q cents per pound.
Yet another advantage is that the
work can be carried on without any
cessation of operations, other furnaces
requiring long and tedious delays.
Mr.. James Henderson departed for
New York on Wednesday on business
relating to the works. He has not yet
decided whether to continue his model
furnace here or not, as parties have
been soliciting him to remove 1t else
where, but it is believed that with the
completion of the railroads now projec-
ted and reduction of freight rates,
not only will the model furnace remain
here, but larger one to manufacture
steel on an extensive scale will be erect
ed.
Mr. G.. L. Rowland, one of the own
ers of the works, was here recently and
was much pleased with the expert
ments then made. He is manager of
the Continental Iron Works, Brooklyn.
Mr.. Chas. G.. Francklyn, the other
owner, has not yet been here, but is
expected the next time fire is put in the
furnace.
Much OF Mr.. Henderson's success In
the recent experiments is due to the
skilIful aid of MIR. William Pettingill
OF St. Albans, Vermont, who under
stands the art of firing the furnace
and was successful when others had
tried and failed. He is still here and
will conduct future experiments.
The quality of the steel produced by
the process exceeds Mr.. Henderson's g |
most enthusiastic anticipations, and in
our humble opinion we should think
that his valuable patent will be worth |
to him.

covering the spinal cord, and particularly in
the region of the neck and head; is some
times very painful and speedily fatal. There
are several forms of IL, the development de-
pending on the conditions of the subject. IL
Is not more common than many other dis
eases. But two cases of 1t are reported on the

Right Handed in Both shoulders.

A Detroit writer says Those of your read
ers who will notice the letter carriers of this
city will see that most of the older ones are
noticeably deformed-one shoulder elevated
and the other depressed; one knee sprung in
and the other in some cases sprung out. They
will also notice that if the right knee Is
sprung in the worn mark on his coat shows
that he always carries his bag on the right
shoulder. Perhaps it is not possible to carry
a heavy bag around for years and still pre-
serve the form as perfect as at first, but the
obviously best remedy is for the carrier tc
learn to carry his load on each shoulder al
ternately.
