A Noble Deed of Courage.
How A BRAVE ENGINEER ltlSlflCl‘l HIS LIFE TO
SAVE OTHERS.
[From the Richmond Whig.)
The highest order ‘of human courage is
that which impels a man in his cool and re-
flective moments to confront approaching
danger or death. that it may be averted from
others. An act of such cool, deliberate, self-
sacrificing heroism, in which R- P. Irving,
a young engineer on the Chesapeake and
Ohio railway, was the actor, deserves the
record. On Wednesday of last week eleven
trains were blocked at Waynesboro awaiting
the arrival and passage of extras which were
behind time.
These having finally come up and passed
on their way westward, the eastward bound
freights were at liberty to resume their way.
The first of the eleven started up the heavy
grade toward the tunnel, but owing to the
sleety condition‘of the track could make no
headway. Mr. Irving, the engineer of the
train next benind, uncoupled the engine and
came to the assistance of the other. Their
united forces got the heavily laden train
over the heaviest grade, uncoupled his
engine and backed down the grade
to his own train. He was scarcely
in position again when the familiar rattling
sound of an approaching train struck his
ears. Ho looked up, and for an instant
stood horror stricken as he saw a section of
the train he had helped up the grade coming
back slowly now, but gathering speed as it
moved. He realized the situation in an in-
stant;-thirteen heavily laden cars had by
some accident become uncoupled from the
rest of the train and were now returning
‘down a seventy-five foot grade, threatening
a: collis‘mn with the standing trains that must
have entailed an immense destruction of
property, beside the maugling of human vic-
time.
The youug engineer did not hesitate a
moment. e saw there was but one thing
to do. and e did it, although he knew that
his own life must in all likehood be the
sacrifice. The approaching section had
already gathered considerable headway
when he put his engine in motion to meet it
and break the force (if the’collision. What-
ever might be. his own fate the lives and
property behind him would be saved. It
was a terrible spectacle—the heavy cars with
their thousands of tons burden thundering
down the grade and threatening to immolato
whatever opposed their path—the single en-
gine, under a full head of steam, fairly leap-
ing' up the grade as if anxious for the dread.
ful encounter. The young engineer was seen
by several as he passed flying into the very
jaws of death. He stood with his hand on
the lever, pale but resolute, slightly stooping
as he watched the approach of the descending
mass that at the next moment was to over—
whelm him and his engine and consigh him
to a frightful death.
The shock came. The intrepid engineer
had somewhat lightened it by suddenly rc-
versing his lover at the last moment. The
crash was awful. The foremost car fairly
mounted the opposing engine, dashing Itself
to pieces. A scene of wreck-and .ruin en-
sued. We have no particular: of the extent
of the damage or the loss to the company.
Nor are we much concerned about it. What
does concern us is the fact that the brave
engineer lay in the. midst of the wreck,
bruised and stunned, but beyond that unhurt.
Behind him stood the long train of cars which
he had saved from the wreck, and aro'd his
prostrate form stood those whose lives he had
saved by an act which has few parallels for
boldness, promptitude and deliberate self-
sacrifice.

Facts About the Oyster Tragic.
Wasurxo'rmv, D. 0., February 6.
Among the subjects which will be exhausf
tivcly treated in the publications of the census
bureau is the oyster industry. A few figures
will show the extent of the operations of this
industry in the census year 1880. The total
capital invested was $1,583,295. ,The num-
ber of bushels of oysters produced was 22.-
195,375. _ Their value to the producers
was $9,034,851, and their value as sold
was $13,438,852. The number of persons
employed was 52,805, and there were
used in the work 4,155 vessels and 11,930
boats, valued at nearly $4,250,000. The ma-
uograph which is devoted to this industry
covers'250 broad pages and has been pre-
pared by Ernest Iugcrsoll, as a part of the
work on fishery industries, which was in-
trustcd to Professor Baird and Professor
Goodc _ The work is remarkably compre
hensive in its treatment of the industry
from the no'rthern end of the Maine coast
line to North Carolina, and the gulf
and the Pacific coast have not been neg-
lectcd. There are chapters devoted to the
natural history of the oyster and the enemies
which attack it. be total wholesale value of
the oysters annually sold in Boston is
$905,000; the value of the oysters produced
in Narragansett bay is $680,000; the value of
those sold in New Haven harbor is$480,000;
in the East river and Peconic bay $708,000;
on the south shore of Long Island, $400,000;
in New York bay, excluding New York city,
$375,000; in New York city, $2,758,000 ; on
the ocean shore of New Jersey, $330,000; in
Delaware bay, $425,000; in Philadelphia,
$2,750,000, and in Virginia nearly $2,000,000
and about $125,000 will cover the value for
the remainder of the southern coast line, 'not
including the Gulf line, where the value
slightly exceeds $300,000.

In Italy, with 30,000,000 population and
7,000,000 men over twenty-one year; of age,
the number entitled to vote heretofore has
been less than _half a million, of whom not
more than half availed. themselves of- the
privilege. The Senate has now passed the
Reform bill, confessing the right of suffrage
upon all who can read and write. This is
the result of an agitation extending over ten
years and after the rejection of numerous
measures looking in the direction of an en--
largcd suffrage. This is probably the most
radical measure of this kind passed in any
country during the last twenty ygars of rapid
changes in the government, and shows more
may make that Italy is slowly but surely be-
coming rcpublicanized. ' ‘
m
French officers are now in the United
States buying horses for the cavalry service
of France. These officers are authorized to
purchase 5,000 horses. The achievements
of American bred horses in Europe during
the past year have opened the eyes of these
people to the superiority of our racing stock;
but this is not the first time that the’
_"clfctc nations" have been compelled to
avail themselvrs of the superior, resources of
this country in the matter of draughthorscs
as well as cavalry horses. ' For some years
count have scoured our country in quest of
suitable animals for government use, or for
service 'in omnibus lines,'tramways; or in
private carriages. .It is pretty evident that in
the future the United States will have to
supply the "played-oat" old world with
horses of all kinds, as well as becves, hogs,
meats and breadstufis.

Court Decision on Driving Wells.
‘ The following from a New York'paper will
interest many‘gi this vicinity:
Judge Wallace of the United States circuit
court, northern district'of New York, ren-
dered an important decision last Frida at
Syracuse. The case was William B. Anl‘vs
et al., complainants, against William Ver-
beck, respondent, in which an injunction was
sought restraining the respondent and twen-
ty-two others from the use of driven wells
pending the prosecution for infringement of
the Green patent. The hearing was had at
chambers where the usual claims asserted by
Green and his agents were presented that the
process of making driven wells and the
principles involved in their use were pro-
Ill-(tied by patents, that they were the discov-
eries of Green and so adjudged in former
trials for infringement, and that the con:—
plainants believed themselvi-s entitled to pro-
tection against use pending trial of the cases.
The respondent submitted affidavits estat-
-lishiug priority of use, citing wells Lll‘lllc
kind described in Green's specifications in
1854 at Suratoga Springs, in 1859, on the fair
grounds at Saraloga, and at other places
prior to the date of Green's alleged discov-
ery. The complainant filed several afifilavits
in rebuttal, but after :1 full examination by
the court and extended argument by the at-
torne s of the parties, the injunction was re-
fused on the ground that the fact of prior
.use seemed to be established. The decision,
it will be seen, must affect the validity of the
patent, for if the fact that, that indued the‘
court to refuse an injunction is well support-
ed by evidence in the trial, the claim of
Green falls at once. and the patent must be
annulled.

Long Island Sound.
The Fish Commissioners report give some
interesting feels about Long Island Sound as
follows: A straight line across the state
from Byram Point to Pawtucket Point is
ninety-six and one-half miles long. The
greatest width of the sound is from the
Highlands in Madison, due south to Jacob's
Point, Long Island, twenty miles. From
New Haven nineteen miles and from Byram
Point, Greenwich, to Matinicock, L. 1., six
miles. From Black Point, East Lyme, to
Plum Island, six and three quarter miles.
The whole areabetween the shore line on the
north and the New York boundary line
contains three hundred and thirty thousand
acres. The deepest water in all this area is
fjr miles from Norwalk, one hundred and
ninety-five ,feet deep. This appears to be a
limited depression since within one mile it is
only twenty feet deep. The deepest waterin
thc'sound is in the Race, at the eastern end
of the sound and on the New York side,three
hundred and twelve feet deep. The depth.
of the whole territory from Norwalk Islands
to the Connecticut river about sixty miles
long by. four miles wide, averages forty-two.
feet. South of Stratford there is a plain
three and a half miles wide, by four miles
long where the water is only from twenty to
twenty-five fccttdeep, and as the bottomis
free from mud we presume it is all good
oyster ground. The depth along the state
line, which is near the middle of the sound is
about ninety feet and the average depth of
the whole area belonging to Connecticut, is
about seventy-two feet. The depth of water
in the New. York side of the sound averages
much greater than on the Connecticut side,
but very little of it being less than sixty feet
deep. If the water in the sound was as clear
as the water in Lake George the bottom could
be easily seen. at almost any point on the Con-
nectlcut side, and if the tide rose and fell on
the' sound as it does in the Bay of Fundy a
very large portion of the bottom would be
left high and dry at every tide.
Peter‘Parley’s Grove.
Nearly all our readers have, at one time or
another, heard of Peter Parley, and the
“Peter Parley place in Southbury. His
grave lies almost unmarked on the hillside in
the old rural cemetery in that town. It is
well to remind the young of the present day
where his ashes rest. Here and there scat-
tered in amongst the long grass, are mounds,
where lie buried the forgotten dead. Now
and then some modern shaft tells of those
lately moruned, and once in a while some fine '
monuments attract the visitor’s eye. Within
this enclosure is a small plot. fenced in with
stem simplicity. Two costly but plain slabs
of marble stand within. On one is a’ name
and two dates, and the emblem is an open
book with two or three dog-cared leaves.
There lies “Peter Parley." orld known
and world-loved, how few can tell where “are
shrincd mortal remains! Yet this was his
choice. With the modesty of great minds,
he shrank from praise _of publicity; and un-
sung, though not unhonored, he lies in a
country graveyard. Once, while he was
traveling in the west, a wealthy lady at a
festival at St. Louis, given _,in his honor,
complimented him as a benefactor of his race '
and promised to erect a monument to his
memory, That memorial has never been
built. The good man’s monument is in the
loving hearts that, forty years ago, were his
delighted readers and pupils.~— Woodbury Re-

Why He Went .out of Journalism.
“Well, Colonel Ochiltree," said John Rus-
sell Young, “do you mind telling us how
you came to desert from the rank of journal-
ism ?”
Tom Ochiltree, carefully setting down his
glass of Perrier Jourctt, said: “What! boys,
did I never tell you that story? Why it’s and
of the most remarkable events of my life!
When Young first knew me, Ifian say'with-
out conceit, that I was a star of the first mag-
nitude in the literary firmsnent. I had a
prOprietory interest in a real live paper down
in Texas. The Houston Telegraph was a
morning and evening paper, had a weekly
edition, and was a leader of public opinion
all over the south. I tell you that when a
man quoted the Houston Telegraph he was
listened to and ’tho paper was celebrated
for its truthfulness and terse English, wher-
ever the language was spoken, and dont you
forget it. It was a big paper. and we were
doing so’ well, subscriptions and advertise-
ments coming in so fast, that I thought ‘it
would be a fair thing to have a little relaxa-
tion in the way of spending a few'of the
summer months in Europe. It isn‘t a bad
thing, on the other side, to be known as the
editor of a prominent newspaper in America,
and I soon found myself sought after, and»
perhaps too conspicuous, which is not -at all
in my line.
“Well, I and Jim Bennett were strolling
down the boulevard one evening, smoking
our cigars. after a good dinner at the Cafe
Anglais.- We hadthrce or four dukes and a
couple of earls with us, and, I think, a ham.
net or so (Jim is partial to English noble-
men) when Bennett suddenly halted the
whole party at the telegraph office under the
Grand hotel.saying: ‘Hold on, dukes, I have
got a big dispatch to send to The New York
Herald, just handed me by my French cor-
respondent.’ '
“We all filed in and crowded the office,
while the dukes and earls wondered at the
prodigal expenditure of the young American
editor. ' ‘
“I wasn’t going to be 'behindhand as an
American editor, so says I, ‘How much will'
the telegram cost?’ ‘
“ ‘Sixty thousand five hundred francs,’ says
the operator, ‘and dirt cheap, too.’
“Says I: “Duplicate the dispatch to The
Houston Telegraph. With your permission
Jim, says I. ‘
“By George! gentlemen, the whole thing
‘was telegraphed to Texas—four ,cOlumns,
solid—and the Houston Telegraph went to
protest the next day. I havn't been taking
much interest in newspapers since; I prefer
politics, and that’s the exact truth about the
matter."

TEMPERANCE.
Can Liquor be"Ptohibited ?
The adhnce in the cause of temperance—
as the word has, come to be misused—has
made Maine an object of interest. and the
Toronto Globe sent two experienced journa-
lists on a journey through that State. In
belief, one was aprohibitionist and the other
an advocate of the license system, but both
were hunting for facts and were capable of
reporting them correctly. They went into
almost every community in every part of the
State, investigating as to the prevalence cf
sobrcliy, _ the ease or difficulty of procuring
liquor, the amount of liquor openly sold and
of liquor scorelly drunk, and the relative
sentiment. of the, people regarding the law.
The result of this investigation are summed
up by the :uuipruhihili uist as l‘uvorgblo to,
the law as it stands-in hit-duo, while the
prohibiouist naturally upproVes it in smur—

TOBACCO— A PARA B LE.
.Thc-u shall the kingdom of Satan belikcned
to a grain of tobacco seed ; which,though ex-'
ceeding small, being cast into the ground
grew, and became a. great plant and spread
its leaves rank and broad, so that huge and
vile worms formed a ‘ habitation thereon.
Audit came to pass, in the course of time,
that one came to 1 upon it, and thought st
beautiful to look upon, and much to be de-
sired to make lads look big and muly. So.
they put forth their hands and did chew.
thereof. And some it made sick, and others
to vomit most filthily. And it farther came.
to pass that those who chewed became weak
andunmanly, and said we are enslaved and
can't cease from chewing it. And the mouths
of all that were enslaved became foul; and
they were seized with a violent spitting; and
they did spit, even in ladies’ parlors and in
the Housepf the Lord of Boats. And the
saints of the Most High were greatly plagued
thereby. And in the course of time it came
also town that others snuffed it; and they
were taken suddenly with fits, and they did
sneeze with a great and mighty sneeze,
insomuch that their eyes filled with tears
and they did look exceedingly silly. And
yet others cunningly wrought the leaves
thereof into rolls; and did set fire to one end
thereof, and suck vehemently at the other
end thereof, and did look very grave and
calf-like; And their smoke ascended up for-
ever and ever. '
And the cultivation thereof became a great
and mighty business upon the earth ; and the
merchant-men waxed rich by the commerce
thereof. And it came to pass that the saints
of the Most High defilcd themselves there-
with; even the poor who could not buy shoes
nor bread, nor books'for their little ones,
spent theirmoney for it. And the Lord was
greatly displeased 'therewith, and said: ‘
“Wherefore this waste; and why do these
little ones lack bread 'and shoes and books ?
Turn now your fields into corn and wheat:
and put his evil thing far from you ; and be
separate, and defile not yourselves any-more ;
and I will bless you and cause my face to
shine on you.” .
But with one accord they all exclaimed :
“We can not cease from chewing,snufiiing
and pulling—we are slaves."—-C’h-rz'stz'an Sec-

I have been sick over two years. They all
gave me up as past cure. I tried the most
skillful physicians, but they did not reach
the worst part. The lungs and heart would
fill up every night and distress me, and. my
throat was very bad. I told my children I
never should die in peace until I had tried
Hop Bitters. I have taken two bottles.
They have helped me very much indeed. I
am now well. There was a lot of sick folks
here who have seen how they helped me, and
they used them and are cured, and feel as
thankful as I do that there is so valuable a
medicine made.

Mr, 3. W. nicks, of Pleasant Valley, Dutchess

name may have appeared in this journal in con-
nection with an article similar to this. W115. Ill-e
his father afflicted with Stone in the Bludd‘, only
that his case was more serious than his father’s.
0n the appcarancc of the disease the father ad-
vised thc son to write t8 Dr. David Kennedy, of
Rondout, N. Y., who, he said, would tell him"
what to do. Dr. Kennedy replied, suggesting the
use 01 “Itennedy’s Favorite Remedy," which had
worked so successfully in the father’s case. ’Mr.
Hicks, who had been assured by local physicians
that they could do nothing more for him, tried
“ Favorite Remedy” at a venturc. Alter two
weeks’ use of It be passed a Stone 3.; of an inch
long and of the thickness of apipc stem. Since
then he has had no symptoms of the rcturn of the
trouble. Here is a sick man healed. What better-
results could have been expected P What greater
benefit could medical science confer ? « The end
was gained; that is surely enough. Dr. Kenne-
dynssures the public. bya reputation which he
cannot afford to forfeit or imperil,that the "Fa-

Liver, Kidney and Bladder complaints, as well as
all these diseases and weaknesses peculiar tovlc-

The rainfall of Cherrapunji, a small Indian
station in southwestern Assam. is believed to
exceed in quantity that of any other known
place. Cherrapunji occupies the summit of
one of the Kharia Hills, at an elevation of
4,100 feet. These hills rise abruptly fwm
low plains, and lie directly in the course of
the southwest monsoon from the Bengal
coast. Sui-charged with moisture, the air
currents sweep across the lowlands and are
deflected upward by the bills, the expansion
of the currents on rising causing a fall of
temperature and condensation of the mois~
turc. The effect is surprising, for, while
the low plains have an average yearly fall of
only about a hundred inches of rain, the an-
nual rainfall of Cherrapuuji is 498 inches, or
more than 41 feet. As a comparison, it may
be stated that the annual rainfall of the
’ted States is from 12 to 50 inches, being
greatest near the sea-board.
In a late paper, Dr. James Geikio shows
the great size of the Gulf Stream and its
vast influence upon northern climates, and
concludes that the opening of the proposed
canal across the Isthmus of Panama, will.
have about as much effect upon the Gulf
Stream and- the climate of Northwestern
Europe as the emptying of a tcapotful of
boiling water into the Arctic Ocean would
have in raising the annual temperature in
Greenland.
A French manufacturer claims the discov-
ery of making use of leaves of the eucalyp-
tus tree as a substitute for tobacco leaves in
cigars. The eucalyptus leaves emita deli-
cious odor in burning.
A Européau observer, E. de Merejowski,
has lately studied certain of the lower crus-
taceans with a view of deciding whether or
-or not those creatures are able to distinguish
colors. As a result of his experiments, he
has concluded that, while the crustaceans
are fully alive to the difference between
light and darkness, it is solely the quantityof
the light and the quality which affects them,
for they cluster in nearly equal numbers
around two rays of equal intensity, what-
ever msy be the colors. There appears to
be, then,a 'wide difference between the lower
crustaceans and man in the perception of
light. While we see different colors and
their different intensities, the crustaceans see
only one color with variations of intensity.
We perceive colors as colors; they only dis-
tinguish them as light.
According to the recent calculations of Mr.
G. H. Darwin, the earth and the moon must
have formed only one some fifty-four million
years or more ago, and at a time when this
body was rotating at. the rate of about one
revolution in five hours, the mass now form-
ing 'the moon became separated from it.
Thus was the moon born; and Prof. Ball,
in his exposition of Darwin’s views,concludes
that in time the wound on the earth became
entirely healed, leaving no scar to testify to
the mighty catastrophe. To this final con-
clusion Mr. 0. Fisher now offers an amend-
ment. He believes that the scars yet exist,
and that those scars arc the ocean basins.
When the moon’s mass was thrown from
the earth, the liquid interior must have risen
to fill the hole, and portions of the granite
crust must have been borne toward the cavi-
ty. The hole only partially filled up, and the
crust became broken into the fragments
meuts which now form the continents.
“Is the human skull growing thinnmfil "
is a question raised by Mr. W. B. Cooper,
who endeavors to prove by generally accept-
ed laws of evolution that such must be the
case. These laws teach that the stronger
organisims must survive the weak in the
struggle for life, and that all living creatures
possess the natural tendency of becoming
accommodated to altered circumstances with-
in certain limits. Mr.Cooper argues that
when barbaric warfare and the dangers of
thcchase were common occurrences the law
of natural selection must have‘operated to.
eliminate individuals with skulls too weak to
withstand the severe shocks to which they
were exposed. Adaptation, also, must have
exerted an influence in causing the bony
armor of the brain to become thickened -to
serve as a protection for that delicate organ.
With civilized man a change is found. Nat-
ural selection no longer has special occasion
to remove persons Of weak crania, as the
skull is seldom exposed to violence. For
the same reason, the law of adaptation,
which like all evolutionary laws may be
either progressive or retrogrcssivc, tends
rather to decrease the skull's thickness than
to increase it—tho brain no longer having
need of a strong protective covering. Men’s
skulls are now less exposed to violence than
at any former period in the world’s history,
but in view of the fact that the most advanc-
cd Osces of to-dsy were barbarians a few
‘ centuries ago it is obviously too early to look
for any great change. He maintains, how-
ever, that in accordance with theory, the
brain must be fast losing its shield, and
points out that it is no unusual event no‘w-a-
days to hear of fractures ascribed to unusual
thinness of the skull.

Not Heart Disease.
_When an individual is reported, to have
died of dieasc of the heart, we are in the
habit of regarding it as an inevitable event,
as something which could not have been
foreseen or preyented, and it is too much the
habit when. persons suddenly fall down dead,
to report the heart as the cause; this silences
all inquiry and investigation, and saves the
trouble and inconvenience of a post mortem.
A true report would have a tendency to save
many lives. It is through a report of the
disease of the heart that many an opium-
eater is let off into the grave that covers at
once his folly and his crime ; the brandy-
driuker, too, quietly slides around the corner
thus, and is heard of no more; in short, this
report of disease of the heart is the mantle
of charity which the polité coroner and sym-
pathetic physician thr‘ows around the graves
of generous people. At a scientific congress
at Strasburg it was reported that of sixty-six
persons who had suddenly died, an immedi-
ate and faithful post mortem showed that
only two persons had any heart affection
whatever—one sudden dEath only in 33,from
disease of the heart. Nine out of every
sixty die of upoplexy—one out of every
seven—while 46, more than two out of three,
died of lung affection, half of them from
congestion of the lungs, that is, the lungs
were so full of blood they could not work ;
there was not room enough for air to get in
to support life. It is, then, considerable of
practical interest to know some of the every-
day causes of this congestion of the lungs, a
disease which, the figures above being true,
kills three times as many persons at short
warning as apoplcxy and heart disease to-
gether. Cold feet, tight shoes, light clothing,
through after having warmed up by labor or
a long, hasty walk; going too suddenly from
a close, heated room, as a lounger,or listener,
continual application, or abstinence, or heat- '
ed by along address; these are the frightful ;
causes of sudden death in the form of co V
gestion of the lungs; but which, being to] .
1y reported as disease of the heart, and .re- -
garded as an inevitable event, throw people
0115 their guard instead of pointing them to
their true causes, all of which are avoidable ;
and very easily so, as a general rule, when‘
the mind has once been intelligently drawn
to the subject.~—Hall's Journal'of Health.
