The highest velocity that has been i'm
parted to shot is given as 1926 feet per
second, being equal to mile in 3.2 sec
onds. The velocity of the earth at the
equator, due to rotation on its axis, is
1000 miles per hour, or a mile in $50 Sec
onds; and thus, if a cannon ball was fired
due west and could maintain its initial
velocity, it would beat the sun in its APP
parent journey round the earth.

BLOOD !!
Inoculated Poison f!

Some eight years ago l became the victim
of fearful Blood Poison, communicated by
breast, and suffered for six long years. The
Mercury and Potash treatment seemed to
drive the poison further into my system only
to break out in worse form on other portions
of my body. Three months ago I began taking
Swift's Specific, and it has cured me sound
and well. 1t is the greatest blessing which
has come to mankind in years.

But uenitent autumn
Requites their leaves.

Mr., Moseley, as tile representa-
tive Of the City of Alexandria and
Parish of Rapides, was called upon
by the Convention to respond to
the proposition of Mr.. Rexford,. of
New York, who proposed on behalf
of the corporation represented by
him to build the road provided the
people of the Parishes through
which the road is to run, will give
the right of way and grounds for
depot purposes, and in addition a
tax of five mills per annum for ten
years, upon the property of the Par
ishes through which the road is to
pass. Mr.. Moseley replied that he
felt authorized to state that the peo-
pie of Rapides would guarantee
the right of way through that part
Of the Parish to be traversed by the
road, and farther that they would
furnish the necessary grounds for
Depot purposes, but that so far as
the tax of five mills for ten years
was concerned. he could not say
that the people would go so far;
that he was satisfied there would be
serious opposition to levying such
a tax, and that the matter wonld
have to be submitted to the people
and by them decided at the ballot
box; that the people were poor,
