Among the schemes which have occupied
the attention of our lawmakers at Augusta
that looking TO the removal of the State cap

fore the matter had been submitted to

themselves with the expense attending
the change proposed. until some bettee rea-
son is given for doing so than has vet been
presented. We do not much doubt that the
capital will be removed from Augusta some
time, but do not expect it Tor number of
years yet. The present State House for few

seats, ventilation, etc, can be put in passa-

We do not apprehend that any serious conse

result if they continue to do business at the
old stand.

What is this nervous trouble" with which
80 many seem now to be afflicted If you
will remember a few years ago the word
Malaria was comparatively unknown-to-day
il is as common as any word in the English
language, yet this word covers only the mean
ing of another word used by our fore-fathers
in times past. So it is with nervous diseases,
a. thew and Malaria are intended to cover
what our grandfathers called Biliousness, and
all are caused by troubles that arise from a
diseased condition of the Liver which in per
forming its functions finding it cannot dispose
of the bile through the ordinary channel is
compelled to pass it of through the system,
causing nervous troubles, Malaria, Bilious
Fever, etc. You who are suffering can well
appreciate q cure. We recommend Green's
August Flower. Its cures are marvellous

The photographs ob- tained in this manner showed an air forma- ton in front of the bullet having the form of an hyberbole, while behind it almost 8 vacuum was formed, in which, when the ini- tial velocity was very great, there were some curious spiral motions. From the descrip- tion given, there appeared from these photo motion of body through the water and that of projectile through the air.
 The Hawkesbury railroad bridge in New South Wales is interesting to this country for one reason because an American design was adopted over all those submitted by European and Australian engineers, and be- cause the American price was so far below that of all other bidders. The bridge was to be built over an estuary about 5000 feet broad and the great difficulty was in the character of the foundation. Soundings showed that some of the piers would have to go down considerably over a hundred feet below the river bed, rise thr ough depth of from twenty to forty feet of water and con- tinue up for forty feet more to the level ot the rails. For this great work designs and estimates were asked from bridge builders all over the world. Fourteen were received three American, nine English, one French and one Australian. The American esti
 mates averaged $1 ,464, ,720, the English sa,- 2S3, ,52O. The French estimate was $3, ,329, 100 and the Australian s3,413, 5s0 The American design adopted was the most cost ly of the three from this country and the es- innate for it was $1 ,5Ss, ,220..

Secretary Bayard,s Plans.

Wilmington Special to the Philadelphia PrsssI
 It is pretty generally understood that
 Secretary Bayard at the close of the pres-
 ent administration will return to his home
 in this city, Delaware Place." and take
 up permanent residence here He will
 doubtless withdraw from active political
 life, even so far as it pertains to local af- fairs, and will live in absolute retirement. It is scarcely probable that be will engage in
 the practice of the law again, but morslike- ly that he will possess himself of tract of land close to his home and indulge his tastes in fancy farming
 Contrary to the general opinion, Mr. Bay-
 ard is comparatively rich man. He is at
 least in very comfortable circumstances,
 being possessed of about three hundred
 thousand dollars. This money, or the greater
 part of it, is invested judieiously in Balti-
 more real estate and pays 8 handsome
 revenue. From the late Senator Bayard,
 father of the Secretary, the latter inherited
 about fifty thousand dollars, and through
 his wife the Secretary has acquired about
 three times that sum. Some of his invest meats have been exceedingly profitable, and though while not considered a money getter, he has probably added one huRdred thou sand dollars to his fortune through good investments. Mr. Baysrd has a passion fer fine horses and high bred stock, and it has always been enc of his pleasant anticipations to lay aside public life and engage in farm ing ss a diversion and pastine. The for tunes of politics have not presented that opportunity hitherto, and he will doubtless embrace it now. There is no thought but that he will return to reside here. He is de- votedly attached to his home here, which was the childhood habitation of Myra Clark Gaines, the world-famous claimant, cosy old mansion in a splendid lawn of forest trees. Mrs. Bsyard's fondest wish was for her husband to retire from public life to this old homestead and pass his days. The Sec retary shows the effects of the hard work he has been doing since entering upon his du- ties as Cabinet minister, and his friends say he will rejoice at being able to lay aside the cares of office and come and live among the neighbors and friends of his early man hood His defective hearing, 8 hereditary affiiction, would in measure interfere with the practice of his profession did he even desire to go back to the bar.
