IT IS not aafe to lay down on a rail road with the aoft side of an Iron rail for a pillow, unlem yoo know that the first engine cbmlng along is in charge of so careful and watchful an engineer as Will Morgan.

WILLIAM KELLY, a young mechanic of this city, has perfected machinery which promises to revolutionise the manufacture of wooden-ware, such as tube, buckets, etc. These articles are made with one stave. Besides being more substantial, It is said that they can be manufactured much cheaper than by the present method. Ira Delano, who has purchased an interest in the Invention, took some elegant samples of the ware to the C'ticlnnati Exposition this week. Application has been made for a patent. II secured, we believe there is a fortune in It for the proprietors.
READ the bright, crisp, new advertisements which sparkle in this issue of The Mail. Although they crowd out much other reading matter, A careful perusal of the advertising pages which speek of seasonable goods—just as the year is putting off its summer robes and donniug the more sombre fall and winter g»rb—will be Interesting and profitable. Husband and wife will find this peculiarly so as tbey sit in the family circle this evening. Mall in band, and consider necessary outlays of hard earned money.
FAST!—One day this week two ladies nameless here—members of a big steepled church, were driving down Sixth street. Each had a fast horse. Neither knew the speed of the other's.
Ob, what a slow horse!" said one. "It can beat yours," aaid the ot»-er, defiantly. Whack went two whips— away went two horses, passing on each side of a countryman's wagon. His horses, startled at the sudden movement, became unmanageable, and ran with race-horse speed down the street, while the ladies, frightened at what they bad done, without looking at each other or saying a word, turned opposite corners and drew in the reins. The astonished countryman has not been heard from.

At last T. T. baa It, Now la ths summer of our discontent ended, For weary months eager eyes and ears bavs been wide open for a sensation. At last haaoouie. The tiresome watching and listening are rewarded.' It la almost too great. It ought to be served up with at leaat a half column of head lines. T. T. prepared some, bnt Mr. Weatfall utterly refused to pay for any leas than solid matter. So the flaring capitals, which were to startle tbe entire community, must go In here soberly and modestly. T. T. wanted to head his column with something like the following.' "A sensation!—An Outrage!—An entire
City Council Gob
bled up 1—A Demooratlo cat In tbe Republican Meal Too 1—Who put him there?—Wherefore f—Republican kittens mewing in hunger 1—Fought off by Republican City Daddies!—Shame shame!shame!—Fie! fie! fie!—'Howl ye wind (y Republican^, howl!' Resign! Resign!"
The event which should have been heralded with tbe above suggestive words and phrases in tbe biggest kind ef type, is the appointment of John O. Williams, a Democrat to ths responsible and lucrative position of City Attorney, by the Republican Council of Terre-Haute. It is well known that for some time a deep gloom baa settled over the Prairie city because the fates, which have In charge the Interests of this great and growing nation, demanded that the President thereof should lay bis band upon our young, innocent and brilliant City Attorney Beauchamp, and seud him forth to foreign shores. Hardly have our tears coased to flow, and our hearta to ache, when our slowly closing wounds are ruthlessly torn open afresh, by the appointment of Mr. Williams, a Democrat in bis place. That such a man,and a democrat too, should fill a place so recently vacated by one whose vlrtuea share with such refulgent and effulgent light that even the great and good men at Washington could not fail toseo that he was ths only one in all this broad land who could with any hope of success enter upon the arduous undertaking of representing this nation at the Court of
this
one should be succeeded by snch a man is heart rending. Why this man Williams is tbe very reverse of all that Beauchamp was, the very reverse of him socially, mentally, morally and politically. It is not known that a single virtue in tbe former city attorney's character Is represented in the present one, and not even any of his vices. If the former moved in the best society, tbe latter is confined to the worst. Their social circles touch at no point. If the former had a mind thoroughly disciplined by a liberal edncation. was a hard stndent, and destined by his great aud well trained powers to rise to a towering position in the le gal profession, the latter is without education, without habits of study, and with no future prospects. Morally it is the name. If tbe former was a pattern of purity in word, and thought, and deed, a bright example to the rising generation of all that is good and worthy, then the latter is not. If tbe rorm«r was a Republican who loved his country above self, and never desired an office, even refused political preferment whBiyiffered to him, and staid away from Washington lest those grateful to him fur his valuable services should express their gratitude, then the latter Is a Democrat, with all the above category of political virtues sopplanted by corresponding political vices. It Is surprising In the extreme, not to say *pallln^, to think that a Republican council oouid put a Democrat, and such a Democrat, in tbe place of a Republican, and such a Republican. Truly,—T. T. says it sadly— truly there is a Democratic cat In tbe Republican meal tub and the evidence Is overwhelming that Republicans who heretofore have bad tbe entire confidence of tbe party, put It there, and did it on purpose, with malice aso.etbougbt.
Then saddest, saddest of all ere the fearful consequences follow. Hereafter »t will be understood that tbls was dons because there WHS no young lawyer In the Republican party capable of filling tbe place, when the fiwi that there are at tout ten or a doaeo young Republican members of the bar who have aothhtg In the world to prevent their attending to tbe business of tbs city attorney, who probably will have nothing to prevent Ibr long time. Tbe Express feelingly says, "The unfortunate thing about this transaction to that I* nomdd^n-d ss an evidence that there are no R»*pub I loan lawyer* la t%p city, it tor the pNM who win tttopt it." Juat so. When tbe former dtjr aUoruey wus elected It wmprimm ,/&<* evidence that tb- rs wan no better man In ibe Republican party Hi for the plaee who would •6eM It,
Bat II surprises T. T. that It septus to have occurred to BO one that this ap
pointment of a Democrat by tbe Republican Oounell will also lay ths yonhg Rebubllcan lawyers under tbe grossly unjust suspicion of not desiring office. This Is as false as the the other Imputation cast upon their lionor..V Any one of the ten or dozen refered to above would have accepted the office,' and even been gratefak far it. Not only has a cat of tbe wrong breed got into tbls mesl tub, been deliberately put there, but as Indicated in wbat shtfuld have been tbe bead lines, the klttensof tbe right breed, hungry and piteously mewing, have been driven away as heartlessly as a sleepy man Interrupts a feline concert at midnight on the neighboring fence,
T. T. only uttprs the sentiments of all tbe better class of Republicans, that la, of every one who ever held an «fflce, or wants ons,wben he calls upon the council to undo its work quickly, or resign. And unless this demand is complUd with suits will be begun at once and a Committee of Fifteen appointed. T.T. says plainly to the Council: Step out of tbe political shoes which you have diagrsced, at once, and let some of tbe rest of us who want them step in, snd show to a much abused constitU' ncy that they shall not be cast under the suspicion of not bsving men who a,re fit for office or want it.

CRUSADERS
The other day I picked up a paper and my ey&fell on apiece in it which 1 recognised at once to be mine. It was short extract from an artiole I bad written several weeks previous. My name was not attached and the reader could not tell who bad written it—very likely the editor of the paper himself did not know. And yet it gave me a thrill of satisfaction to see it. Set there among a number of carefully selected articles of much more ambitious origin, it seemed that there must have been something in It to attract some one's notice, and this thought afforded pleasure, Indeed I valued this little extract more highly than the whole long article as it first appeared in tbe paper it was written for for then it was crude and untested, thrown out at a venture to tbe public, uncertaiu as to tbe reception it would meot. But now It came back bearing tbe imprint of popular commondatlon ^and stamped with a positive value.
looks
back from his lofty place to tbe first leeble and half-blind efforts of his boylife, tbey mutt seem very small indeed. Yet he can soe that they wem the little tiprings which set tbo machinery of maturnr years into operation, tbe trickling rivulets which formed the source of tbe noble stream his bark now floats on so gracefully and grand I v. Despise not the day of small things, says the proverb, and there is a world of wisdom in tbe command. Join with It another, whatsoever tby band findetb to do, doit with thy might, and tbe two, if obeyed, will make the most out of any one. It is here that the great mind arises superior to the smsll one. "I will not do this," says the latter, "because it is too small." But the other says, "This Is little work Indond, but it may chance to lead to something better. I will do It the best I can." And so while the one is waiting his turn to get hold of tbs great lever that moves the world's machinery, and waiting In vain—the other has gradually been setting a lot sf little wbee.s In motion wbicb will ultimately give bim control ol tbe large ones. Mediocrity Is hotblooded and Impatient and wants to aarmount every obstacle at a leap. If It cannot do thia it a*«a no wsy of ever getting over them. Genius Is patient and deliberate. Tfthe wall la too high tn jump it goes quietly at work to dig away the foundation. It Is more commonplace to dig than to jump, but It Is better to dig snd be on the other side than to Jump snd f*il, snd sotbeobataeies are surmounted tbe world troubles Itself very little whether they have been Jumpedover or dug beneath.
Work to tbe bug-bear of a treat many young men of tbls generation. Tbsrs Is a prevalent desire to get without giving—to be bunting for «oaiotbing •ssy. TIM young man tlut work* etgbt or tea boors a day an4 don't spend every other evening In society to generally suspected to be killing himself. sad bto sleek-dressed, soft-banded oompanloas would sol be surprised any day to bear that bo bad dropped off. But usually bo manages to disappoint tbem for an unreasonably long time and then bo gets tbo raputatkM of befog a prodigy of endur^we, of having an "Iron constitution." etc. Indolent, iuj aad worthless young meu are «tRlng for fortunes wbicfe tbsir fetbe*» gathered togstber by wording dsj od eight for years. It
would be better In many oases If their fathers hsd worked less, in order that their sons might work more.
Akin to this is tbe Idea thai your work is unworthy of you. "Why don't you get something bifg«r to do?" yonr ambitious friend asks you from time to time. But If you should ask him wbat it would be be oould not tell you. Greeley alwaya advised young men to stay where they were, believing that *lf tbey bad talents for a larger work tbey would be found out bye and bye. And be was right. Not that a man of superior ability should set down In obscurity, indifferent about success, snd allow his energies to be smothered in sn unworthy contentment. Let him work bis best and his hardest. But there is such a difference between seeking snd being sought I If one is superior to bis place a letter will come some day inviting bim up higher. Somehow the world has an unfaliible Instinct for finding out genius. It msy go nnnoticed for awhile and its place may seem so hidden that It never can be found out. But some day public opinion will get a snlft of it snd will not lesve off pursuit until it chases tbe object home and then It is not the worso for genius that it had to be bunted.
You may rest perfectly easy therefore, for if there is anything superior in you it will be discovered and you will find your proper work. And if you are only a me liocre at best, wbat use to go Jumping and shouting and enacting tbe clown? You will not deceive the world by any tricks. Don't go crusading about for something fine to do. Stay wber» you are and if you are worthy of anything fine it will come to you.
