A Novel Locomotive.

A novel locomotive is to be built for trial
on one of the French railroads. Seeing that
big driving wheels were good for speed, the

six coupled wheels,SA feet in diameter. The
tender and coaches are to have wheels of the
same dimensions, and the calculation is that
with such train speed of from ~ to rs

A Gallant lIninn Snlhler.

Gen. Durbin Ward, of Ohio, whose death
occurred a few days ago, asagallant soldier
during the late war. lie was terribly
wounded at the battle of Chckamsnga. Gen.
James B. Steedman used to tell with rare
gusto how he saved the life Of the brave sol
dier on that occasion. The night after the
battle Steedman was riding past cabin by
the roadside. A woman at the fence said to
him " There il dead Union officer in my
house" Steedman dismounted and went in
To see the dead man. He found him lying in
a corner, covered with blanket, where the
surgeons had abandoned him. lie pulled
the covering oil, stopped down, and by the
light of a candle recognized his old friend
Col. Durbin Ward. lie was cold and appa-
rently litelesS. Steedman felt his pulse and
found slight lluttering. Calling Tor his or
derby, who carried canteen of whisky, he
raised the dying man, and putting the can
teen in his mouth poured a liberal quantity
of the reviv;fyng fluid down his throat The
reaction came, tho surgeons were sent ior

AFTER THE BATTLE Is OVER.


Tho wisest statesman that framed a bin
And the bravest soldiers that carried u gun,
And the best commanders were not born till
A few hours after the war was done.
They censure. condemn. and pick ont flaws,
With Eindsight keen and judgment rare;
And IL gives the startled reader pause
To think what they "a done If they'd been there
We can't help wondering IL it was right,
And Just what Providence did II for.
To send the burglars 10 win the fight.
And save the generals till after the war.

BUT that still does not answer the inquiry,
WHY does it interest and charm one so? l
am not going To attempt an answer myself;
but will let the reader himself answer it.
Tell me, ior instance, why you are charmed
by piece of poetical description like this,
taken at random from multitude of similar
ones:
| "St. Martins summer is still lingering and
| the days all begin in mist. \ Nothing
| could be lovelier than the last rosebuds, or
| than the delicate gauired edges Of the straw
| berry leaves embroidered with hoar-trost-
| while above them Arachnes delicate webs
hung swaying in the green branches OF the
| pines,-iittle bathrooms for the fairies. car
| psted with powdered pearls, and kept in
| place 10y a thousand dewy strands, hanging
| from above like the chains of IA lamp, and
| supporting them from below like the anchors
OF vessel. These little airy editices had all the
| fantastic lightness OF the elf-worid and all
the vaporous freshness of dawn. They re-
| called TO me the poetry of the north, waiting
To me breath from Caledonia or iceland or
Sweden, Frithiof and the Edda, Ossian and
the iiebrides-" 1t Is not hard to answer our
| question 80 far aS such passages are con-
| cerned. But they, alter all, are only found
| incidentally in the volume. The bulk oi ii,
| where the author escapes from his intro
| spective selfanalysis, in taken up with
| literary and art criticism, and especially
with profound philosophical reflections, like
| this:
"We have too much barbarian blood in our
veins, and we lack measure harmony, and
grace Christianity, in breaking man NJ
| into outer and inner, the world into earth
and heaven, hell and paradise, has decom
posed the human unity, in order, 1t is true
to reconstruct II more profoundly or more
truly. But Christianity has not yet digested
this powerful leayen. She has not yet con
quered the true humanity |; she is still livinl
under the anthony of sin and grace, OF here
below and there above. She has not pene
trated into the whole heart OF Jesus. She i
still in the ndrther of penitence ; she is no
reconcled, and even the churches still wea
the livery of service, and have none OF tn
Joy of the daughters of God, baptized OF th
Holy Spirit" Much more there is in thi
vein, thoughtful, deep, often revealin
glimpses OF sublime truth, then again b,

of Hegelianisms and Spinozism. Just tn
kind OF geniusilashing philosophical mind

THE CAMPAIGN OPENS w EST
OF THE RIVER.


While the meeting was not as large as is usual
with the enthusiasm and zeal of "old Jackson :"
in the interest Of Democracy, 1t may be account
ed for from the fact that our country friends arc
busily engaged harvesting their cotton crop, yet
there was Il sufficient assemblage TO cheer and
inspire for triumph our standard bearer. Hon. r.
FL. n. Davidson.
Mr.. Mallory was the first TO speak, and well
did he portray the advantages which had &C
crued TO the people from the ascendency of the
Democratic party. He stated that he believed
that Mr.. Davidson had received the nomination
fairly and squarely. and there was no improper
methods used to accomplish the result of the
BrOOksvile convention; that he was q candidate
before that convention, and that while he was
defeated, he was as strong and jealous Demo.
crat as breathed the breath of life his support
for Mr.. Davidson and the Democratic party was
more jealous than it could have been before he
was defeated; he had been defeated, he acknOwl-
edged II, aud was for the nominee with what
power he could bestow.
He was loudly applauded, and has made many
warm friends among our people.
MIR. Davidson was In one of his felicitous and
happy moods and spoke of the administration
under Cleveland as unprecedented in the history
of our country.
He denounced his slanderers and showed by
facts and figures that while he did not boast of
his work that in this the First District there was
no child's play" to get these appropriations on
account Of the slight commerce of many small
rivers; If he had done no good, he could clean
his skirts OF doing wrong.
The Colonel was eloquent In his appeals to The
Democracy to stand by their nominee; he eau
toned them to be not too confident but work
till the poll closed. He claimed he had NO in
terest or part In corporations or monopolies;
that be was no attorney for either, nor never was.
that he was for the people irst last and forever,

Leon County Hay.

Early last year MIR. John B. Davids came
from New York state to Leon county 10 engage
in the culture of grasses for hay. He had pre-
viously purchased land about four miles west Of
Tallahassee for the purpose, and now has sew
enty odd acres ready for seeding From this
ground he has taken pile of stumps and roofs
as large in size as the largest dwelling house in
Tallahassee. 1t has been plowed and cross
plOwed thirteen times. and finally to depth Of
30 inches, and narrowed about as often as
plowed. The ground has also been highly fer
tilted, and next year land succeeding years IS
welD Mr. Davids expects 10 gather 400 tons Of
hay from this field, and we hope he will. In
the meantime he IS preparing more land for
grasses From experiments and thorough ex-
animation Mr.. Dayids has found eight varieties
that are reliable for southern hay crops OF
these We believe he will plant two, alfalfa and
johnson grass
