THE SHAMROCK.

1t il related that when st. Patrick
landed in Ireland in the fifth century,
having owe come the hostility OF the
savage isle ders, he proceeded to in.
struct then in the doctrines of Chris
tianity. But in vain did he endeavor
to explain to them the doctrine of the
trinity in unity. His untutored hearers
failed to comprehend his reasoning till,
plucking trefoil to serve as an illus.
tration, he inquired of them, els it
not'as possible for the Father, Son and
Holy Ghost as for these three leaves to
grow upon single stalk ?' This argu.
ment, according to the legend, imme-
diately convinced the Irish, who yield.
ed to st. Patrick's efforts for their con-
| version. The shamrock was thence
forth dedicated to the saint and be-
came the national cognizance. 1t is
somewhat unfortunate that this pretty
story is not to be found in any of the
lives of the great saints of Ireland, but
it is still more unfortunate that it is
again impossible to determine which is
the true shamrock. According to the
best authorities, however, the honor is
due to the Black Nonsuch or Medica
90. or to the Dutch clover. Both these
plants are worn on st. Patrick's day
and are held to be the true shamrock

WEIGHT OF RAILWAY CARS.

Ten years ago standard car load on
the best American railways was 20, 900
pounds, the weight of the cars being
ao,50O pounds. In 1881 the loads on
most roads had increased to 10000
pounds, but the weight of the car had
increased to only $4,000 pounds. The
master car builders of the Pepnsyl-
vania railroad have now adopted cars
to carry 10000 pounds, while the
weight OF the cars will be very little in
creased. Instead of hauling more than
one pound Of car to one pound OF
freight nearly three pounds of freight
can now be hauled for one pound OF
car. The substitution of steel for iron
rails has made the change possible.
This condition of affairs makes it poss-
ible for the American railways to carry
freights at the low rates they receive
and yet make a small profit. Iron.

TALMAGE IN HOT WATER
Legislators DenOunce the Preacher as a
Liar and a Sfanderer.

Legislators DenOunce the Preacher as a
Liar and Sfanderer.
TRENTON, n. j., Feb. 1T. Dewitt
Talnage, of Brooklyn, was given a very
vigorous blast by the House of Assembly
of the New Jersey Legislature this after
noon Mr.. COrbin, of Elizabeth, intro
duced the music. He arose and asked
the clerk to read an extract from a ser
mon recently preached by Talmage re-
ferring to blasphemy. After mentioning
number of blasphemers, it added, ''the
Speaker Of the Legislature of New Jer-
sey, whose address at the opening of the
session was so fullof Oaths that the prin-
ters, who never swear themselves, had to
put in blanks to show where the oaths
came in"
Mr.. COrbin said this charge was an in
suit to the House and the State. 1t was
well known that Speaker Armstrong
never swOre. He was remarkably free
from profanity. The BROOKLYN preacher
willtully lied when he said what he did.
Speaker Armstrong then took the floor.
He said his attention was called to the
sermon on Sunday At first he was very
Indignant and penned a strong letter to
Talmage, demanding an explanation and
asking for the source of his information.
Before he mailed this letter, however, he
found the sermon had been delivered
nearly year ago and referred to last
years Speaker. While that let him,
Armstrong, out, it affected the Legisla-
ture as much as ever. Everybody knew
that the Speaker last year and every year
had been gentlemen. No oath had ever
been uttered from the Speakers chair.
No opening address ever contained the
slightest semblance of blasphemy.
Talmage had insulted not only a
Speaker andia Legislature, but the entire
State and reflected upon neighbOring
States. The charge of the Brooklyn
preacher was scandalOus and showed the
reckless and irresponsible character of
the man. The State should let Talmage
know It's opinion Of him.
Mr.. Parker, of Newark, thought some
action should be taken in the matter. 1t
might not be possible to bring Talmage
before the bar of the House and punish
him, but certainly some mode of punish
ment could be prescribed, and he moved
that a committee of three be appointed to
frame some course of action.
A number of other speeches were made,
in which Talmage was called numerous
names and denounced as a liar, slanderer
and seeker after nOtOriety. Mr.. Chapman
of jersey City said: "The reverend gem
tleman-GOd save the mark-knew he was
saying what was untrue, but he did not
care; he wanted nOtOriety by his talk"
Speaker Armstrong finally hoped that
no action Of a vigorous kind would be
taken. Talmage WASH / worth the trouble.
The game was too small. The expressions
of the Legislature were sufficient. Mr.
Parker then withdrew his motion and the
matter was dropped.
EX-Speaker StOney, who was last years
Speaker, is in the city tonight. He con-
siders that Talmage reflected upon him
personally, and he seriously cOntemplates
bringing criminal action of some sort
against the Brooklyn clergyman.
