For the Palladium." Ann Arbok, Mich.,' Q u -il v I'j.'ici Dec, ' 85tU, ', 1867.; . 1The' Michigan Central Railroad, ex tending from Detroit to Chicago,' is one of the 'best built toads in "the West." The track is kept in good repair and the bridges are "better than those usually found on western roads. The Company do a heavy business and is in a prosper-' oua condition. ' ' -' Near' Wayne a station eigti ieen miles from Detroit, is situated tire State A raenal. - ; "' - - -: - : 7- Ypsilanti is a thriving town, pleasantly situated on the Hurotl River, and is well built. The depot building here is superior to others on the rout. Tho business of the town consists of manufactures and mercentile : trade. The State Normal School is located at this place. The buildings belonging to this institution, and the Union School House present a fine appearance. : The road thus far passes over a level track of country. West"of Ypsilanti, the ground is rolling and hilly, and rising as we approach Ann Arbor. The Huron has a very winding course, among the hills, often nearly doubling itself, the railroad crosses it twelve times in twelve miles. The scene from the car window is scry pleasing when the landscape is fl..u in the verdure of summer, or arrayed in its varied autumn hues. In winter, on these hills may be seen .

' ' ' . "," The town derived its Binomlar name in the following manner : At' an "early day in the settlement of this part of the State, a pioneer family located them selves' upon the ground now occupied by some of the principal ' business houses, and opened a place of entertainment for the few who might pass that way.' "The good woman of the family, whose name happened to be Ash, appears to have been an admirer of tho grape, and to have cultivated it to some extent about her humblo residence," in gratefulness for the shaxleand in admiration of the beauty of her vines, the title of "Akn's Abbor' was given to the . house. In time a village grew up around this house, the name was retained, and finally adopted-in its present form. ' Thus saith the "oldest inhabitants.'-' The town now occupies a space equal to that of Richmond, but is not very compactly built,' the dwelling houses are mostly frame, aa wood is much cheaper here than other building material. " 'The streets'aro very little improved." ! the pavements like those of all Northern towns, are made of plank, much , atten tion, however, has been paid to planting shade trees; and in summer the town presents a very' agreeable appearance, with its streets lined by trees.v'a Td its houses with its large grounds. . xne university Dutiaiutrs are on a i campus of forty acres, and are nine in number, the largest is the Medical Department, the others are for the Law School, the Museum, the Literary College, tho Chemical Laboratory, and four residences for members of the Faculty. 1 The other buildings of interest are the Union Sjhool House, the National Bank business block, and the Gregory Hotel, and the several churches. . The Methodist Episcopal Church is the largest and finest, costing nearly seventy thousand "dollars, it was built the past 3-ear, and is a result of the centenary movement. The Presbyterian Chuch is ntxt in size and fine appearance.

Something New Under the San. Mr. ' BuBLiNa Ave, our Minister to China, has achieved a triumph in diplomacy that is without a precedent. Sent to the "Centra! Flowery Kingdom," whose Government has hitherto been so jealous of all "outside barbarians" to look after American interests before tho Emperor, he has succeeded in so thoroughly inspiring the "Brother of the Sun and uncle of the moon" with confidence ia his wisdom, impartiality and faithfulness to his employer, that he has been appointed by the Chinese Emperor Special Embassador to the great power to settle all difficulties between them -and the Chinese Government! Mr. Beau no am e . has accepted this mission, and the Diplomatic Corps, resident near Pekin, cordially approve of the appointment. . t This is a most extraordinary case, but there "s a little constitutional difficulty in the way, as every person holding any office of trust or profit is forbidden to accept, without the consent of ongress, any office from any king, prince or foreign state. Mr. Bulisoamk, it is eported will leave immediately, via San Francisco, and will call at Washington t obtain the consent of Congress to serve the Emperor as Mioisur Ex : traordinary to the other powers of the earth. Considering the intimate relations, we hop soon to have with China, through the Pacific Railway this impression our Miuister has mad upon the Emperor is favorable, and it may be wise for Congress to allow Mr. Beau wo abb to place the celestial empire under'as utich good will as possible. Of Mr. B. it may be truly said the Yankee is abroad. The Figi cannibals have murdered and eaten Rev. S- Baker, a Wealeyan missionary, and six natives. A deposit of tellurium, the second discovery of the kind in the country, has been found in Missouri. :

GOD'S, J,THY?lC0UNTRY'S AND TRUTH'SrV

Exciting Scene in the House Stephens " ' v. Brooks. ; The following is the answer of Mr. Stephens to the re marks of Mr. Brook on the bill from the Reconstruction Committee remarks which the speaker of them has not allowed to be printed in the Globe. - Mr. Stephens, of Pennsylvania Mr. Speaker, I have listened with great pleasure (as 1 always do) to the golden mouthed gentleman from New-York (Mr. Brooks) in his attempt to prove the Bible a lie. That book says that God created "of one blood all the nations of the earth." The gentleman from New York, hwever, contends that there were several different varieties, and that ail nations were not created , "of one blood." Tho question thus at issue between the gentleman from New York and tho author of that sacred volume I shall not attempt to aeciao. it is too mgn ror mo. But, sir, the gentleman has given us the history of the negro race from, I believe, the time of thj Qaoen of Sheba. I am not quite sure whether he i Deluded her in that race or not. But, going over the whole field fiota that time to this, he has, I think, very well described the shape of tho negroc's foot, the crook of his ankle, and the caatour of his face. And then th gentleman went on to consider tho intellect of the negro. . Now, does the gentleman by all of this mean to Ray that tho son of Ethiopia of what the great poet of antiquity speaks as the ' blameless sons of Ethiopit among whom tho gods al ways retired when they wished re spend an innocent and a quiet hour' have not immortal souls, that they are to ba classed among ' tho beasts which perish,' and that God. who is to judge them, will not damn him if ho deserves it? i Laughter.) I am sorry, sir, if such has come to be the condition of that race ia ' this countrr. I had thought that tho members of that race had ah wn ia our day some evidences of strength and power. To be sure, I looked upon them as barbarians for having with their own rkht hands, in defence of libertv. stricken down thousands of the friends of the gentleman who has boan enlightening us to-day. Laughter. This conductor! their part did I confess, show a cruelty and a barbarism which it is hard to excuse. But the rentlem in must recollect that all are not equally mild in their demeanor, ard that even the white man might have done the srae thing, had he been in a similar cos dition. As to intellect, there are different degrees of it.

Brbakags of Lamp Chimnbts. The great cause of lamp climneys being so brittle and breaking; so easy, is owing to the material they are made from. (There is shoddy in glass as well as in broad cloth.) Cheapness being the order of the daj a great many manufacturers make chimneys from silicate of lime in stead of silicate of lead. The gists made from the silicate of lime baa about the following proportions : Sand, 100 : soda, 45 ; lime, 20 to 25 ; nitre, 7 to 10. Lime being a non conductor of heat, the chimney will not bear the expansion caused by the heat, and if by gradual heating the chimney does not break on the lamp, a few timea heatinomakes it so brittle that it breaks with the east effort at cleaning it, no matter how much care is used. The silicate of lead has about the following proportions : sand, 100; lead, 40 to 50; aoda, SO to 25 ; niLrc, 10 to 15. Lead being very ductile and a good conductor of heat, a chimney made from this formula will almost melt before it will crack with the heat. The uninitiated may tell the difference of the chimneys made by these different qualities of glass by ringing tliein. I he vibration from lead glass chimneys has a sweet bell-like sound. while the lime glass has a short harsh sound. The dilferenco of thi nrtat tn ti.A manufacturer is only in material, about 15 cents per dozen. Another point is in annealing; chimney- as a general rule are not annealed : nnder a powerful microscope tiie difference can be seen in thegla9; the particles in the annealed glass lie close aad compact, while the unanuealed seem leady to diyerce. Many an eye will dim with tears as the following touching incident of the recent railroad horror is read: Just alter the train at Angola was wrecked, child a babe scarcely old enough to talk plain, was picked up near one o' the wrecked cars by a brakesman. Beemingly unconscious of what had oc curred. It showed some signs of life, however, and the moment it discovered that au arm encircled its waist it nestled up closely to the man, ottered the words Papa" "Mamma and died without the contraction of a muscle, Only a few moments elapsed from the time it was taken up until it died. A beautiful smile encircled the lips after death, ao life-like, such as would have been the case had its last sweet words upon earth been uttered in the quiet and happy family circle at home. .: i-i,t,-- , ' .
