1t Is a fact not generally known tina. the
James BOsF Gold IHaich Casss really con.

A Railway Run by Water.


A newspaper correspondent,
writing from Switzerland, tells q
a curious railwqSas follows "The
picturesque and practical are Of
ten curiously intermixed. Iglear
a few particulars Of a funiculal
railway which connects Territet
(Chillon) audGlion, The railway,
which is on q steep incline, some.
thing after the style Of the one up
Mount Vesuyius, commences at an
angle of 80 deg. and soon increases
to 81 deg. 1t is a single line, with
a loop as a passing place half way
There are two carriages on the
line, one of which ascends while
the other descends. The ascending
carriage is drawn by the force o.
gravity Of the one which is de-
scending, the latter being weigh
ted by a reservoir placed under.
meath being filed with water
The reservoir is emptied as soon
as the carriage has made the de
scent. The two vehicles are con.
nected with each other by means
of wire cable, which passes ovel
a wheel at the summit of the in,
cline. By the passenger a remark
able optical illusion is experienced
Trees, huts, houses, rocks, all seem
to be bent back, as though by some
enchantment. They are appar.
emily standing out Of the perpen'
dlcuIar, and one can scarcely helE
wondering that they do no! topplc
over. The deception is due to the
seats of tho carriages, which arc
constructed at such an angle that
notwithstanding the steepnoss Of
the gradient, the occupant pre-.
serves his ordinary upright sitting
posture. The line is 748 yards
long, and the difference between
the level ofits base aud that Of its
summit is 9Sl feet"

MR.. HASKELL AND THE NOR
MONS.

we remember to have heard in the
Mormon Tabernacle in Salt Lake City,
the day after President Garfield was
shot. the "chief priests, and rulers" OF
that infamous creed, proclaim that it
was the Judgment of God upon one
who had lifted his voice against the
saints of God. We see that the same
blasphemous and traitorous cry Is
raised over the new made grave of
MFR. Haskell. The Mormon press,
headed by the NeDs, of Salt Lake
CITY. with depth ofmalice almost in
credible, claims the diect interposition
of God in the death of Mr.. Haskell.
The Salt Lake Tribune speaks of it ell
oquently thus:
IT is simply infamous and is born of
the treason and malice which hedges
the Mormon church around like a
winding sheet. They must not fiatter
themselves that Mr.. Haskell has gone
to oblivion. He was. nnt one OF the
kind that such a fate awaits. The
loving hearts of tens of thousands of
loyal men aud women of great free
State are in tears for him; his grave is
holy ground, and in the years to come,
as the history of that State shall be
written, on golden page of the record
of his manly life will be indelibly in
scribed, and it will be pointed out to
children as the story Of one whose life
was not stained by one vice, and VIII"
when sent from the frontier to join
the assembled wisdom of the Nation
at the Capital, in a single session es-
tabIished himself as one of the fore
most of the men who there strive for
intellectual mastery. To charge that
God smote this man because he raised
his voice against the iniquity which
here. in the name of religion, brands
women with degradation, innocent
children with shame and makes brutes
and natural law breakers of men, is
draining the very lees of the cup OF
hiyntry and meanneSS.
