Cen. Coz in CharEcsto,cn.


Gen. Golf spoke in the Court-House on
Wednesday to a large audience consisting
mainly of white democrats and colored re-
pubicans-the man and brother being large
ly in the majority. The General discussed
the tariff much more fully than he would
have done if anybody had been waiting to re-
ply to him. His glittering generalities, dec
larations ofdevotion to the interests Of my
country and my people" above those Of
the people over the sea- and glowing de-
scriptions of the prosperity Of State and
country under the benefcent operation ofthe
war tariff. were intermingled with very plau-
sible arguments in favor of high protection.
There was the usual display of cut and dried
oratorv. and the starry banner. His coun-
tv.-and himself, figured largely. The
speech. which lasted about two hours, was,
ON the whole, bright and entertaining, and
was devoid of anything offensive to the many
democrats prcsent-who especially apprecia-
ted the compliments paid to Hon. VIM. l..
Wilson. tits needless to say that great en-
thusiasm prevailed among the Generals adj
mirers and fellow-republicans. Mr.. 5. V.
Yautis presided over the meeting, and a.
mong those present were Hon. J. \. Wisner
Col. G. w. Z. Black, :. H. Higinbotham and

are under obligation to Gen. Golf. He
voted for them. You couldn't bring suit !;
you couldn't serve on a jury you couldn't

AN ELECTRICAL EXPRESS CARRIER.

There is under way in Baltimore
stupendous electrical enterprise that
will, if mechanically successful, as
it promises to be, revolutionize the
common-carriage business of the
entine world, and bring about new
era that will stamp the present as
an age of electricity, if there be any
doubts of that at present. The en-
terprise is nothing more or less than
the construction of an elevated
framework, the main, features of
which are two narrow rails, upon
which shall run vessel or cartrid ge
capable of holding express or mail
matter, newspaper, baggage, or
freight of any kind. Above these
rails and equi-distant from them is
to run third rail or copper con-
ductor or cable, through which the
electricity will pass and propel the
vehicle. 1t is stated that the freight
cartridge, filled with newspapers in
Baltimore, would land them in New
York in little over an hour and a
quarter Baltimore Sun.

sKlLEuL SURGICAL nprRAIlnN.

Boston, Dec. An interesting
surgical operation was successfully
performed before the students of
the Harvard Medical School at the
Massachusetts General Hospital on
the last operating day. DIR. Porter
of this city, who is one of the most
skilful surgeons in the country, per-
formed the operation. The patient
was man 80 or GO years of age,
who had been suffering for many
years from neuralgia pains in the
side Of his face. He went to the
hospital to seek relief at any cost.
II was decided that the only remedy
was the removal OF the diseased
nerves from the face. He willingly
submitted to the operation. He was
etherized on the operating table and
rolled into the surgical amphitheatre,
before the students, when the oper-
alton began.
The facial nerve which was TO be
removed rises from the brain, COM
ing out through the front of the
skull, and, extending down under
the eye and parallel to the nose,
branches out over the whole check,
the principal part of the nerve run
ming through the centre of the cheek.
DR.. Porter made an incision at the
angle of the jaw, or where it hinges
to the skull, the jaw-bone being laid
bare. The bone over the menal for
amen (thc groove in which the nerve
lies) was trepanned, or drilled away,
the nerve being exposed to view.
The Doctor then caught hold of the
diseased nerve, and, by a slight eX-
ertion, pulled it out of the foramen.
Next an incision was made under
meath the eye, laying bare the nerve,
which was also pulled out, or as
much of it as the Doctor could get
at. A similar operation was per-
formed just over the eye. In this
way the greater part of the nerves
of the face, which had caused the
patient so much pain, were removed.
There was free flow of blood, but
this was stopped by ligating the
arteries.
The operation lasted fully an hour,
and resulted in most satisfactory
manner. The whole network or
nerves in the check was not des-
troyed, as that would be well nigh
impossible, but the main diseased
parts were removed, so that the
patient will probably never again
experience the eXcruciating torture
of acute neuralgia in that spot, al
though he will not have the same
control of that side of his face

cents per pound here. | am import
ing twenty-five tons, which arc now
on the way, and some of this will
be distributed gratuitously in small
packages, to those who desire to
experiment on their farms. But |
shall expect in return that those who
do make such experiments, from
seed that | give them, will send me
samples of the bects that they grow
and the soil in which they are grown,
for the purpose of analysis. 1t
must be remembered that the large
beets are not the best for making
sugar. If the soil be very rich the
beets should not be planted more
than four inches apart in the rows,
If the soil be of good quality the
beets should be six inches apart
in the rows, and eight inches apart
if the soil be not so good. The
rows should always be fourteen
inches apart from one another.
A factory will cost about 1925, 900
but, for the first one, some of the
machinery will be imported from
Germany. Subsequently. l antici-
pate no trouble in its being manu-
factured in this country. A site of
from thirty to forty acres is neccs-
sary wherever each factory is erect
ed, so as to give ample room for the
large quantity of machinery and
buildings; also, for the prompt
handling of the great number of
wagons that will be delivering bcets
at the same time, so that the wagons
may not he delayed and the work of
the farmers impeded.
1t is impossible yet to determine
where factories should be located.
| have received invitations from all
sections of California, Oregon and
Washington Territory to visit differ
ent localities, and will endeavor to
do so as quickly as possible. From
the foregoing remarks, however, you
will be able to form an idea of what
is essential to the erection of q
factory. Such information rs | have
indicated, if forwarded to me in
conjunction with samples of soils
and beets, will materially assist me
in locating the sites for future fac
tories.
