Connecticut.

The next politioal event of importance is the annual State State election in Connecticut, which will occur on Monday, April 1. The contest in that State has of late years been one of.the closest in the Union, and has divided with New Hampshire the interest awakened by the supposed indication it gives of the current of popular feeling. In 1860 it was Republican by a considerable majority, and remained so during the war. It gave the largest majority it has ever given to the Republican ticket in 1865. The variations were occasioned mainly in the Democratic vote, which ranged from a little over 30,000 in 1862 to as high as -12,000 and over in 18G4, the Republican vote remaining nearly stationary. Since 1865 the majorities have been small and equally divided, with the exception of 1868, when the State gave something like an old-fashioned majority for Grant, and the Republican vote exceeded 50,000. Last year the returns first gave English, the Democratic candidate, a tricing majority.

THE American Railroad Journal states that there were at the close of the year 1870, 54,435 miles of completed railroad in the United States, and yet we have seen a table giving the railroad mileage of all countries in 1872, which sets down our total at 50,000. The truth is that we have more miles of railroad than all the countries of Europe combined, but the confusion of the published statements prevents this fact from becoming properly known. The

Railroad Journal

states that, in addition to the 62,646 miles of completed road, there are over 40,000 miles of road in process of construction, making an aggregate of 102,646 miles, ail of which-may be fully expected to be iu use in a few years. It does not seem to be generally known that this railroad progress is no recent development, but has been going on with the same energy siuce the first invention^ of railroads. The system was promptly appreciated in America, and lines were rapidly built upon all the main routes of travel in the. populous districts. We have been, aheafl. of Europe from the first.

IT appears that some ingenious gentle' man, or at least one wise enough to take, a hint from the surgeons who trausfer llesh to parts where it is needed, has invented a process by which people who have lost their hair mi\y soon and effectually be furnished with gorgeous locks. His plan is simply to cut .from somebody's scalp little pieces of skin and transplant them to the scalp where they are needed. Should his system be fouud to work well it may soon become fashionable thus to transplant hair of various hues and shades from one "head to another, thereby producing the most singular and beautiful effects of color. Or the hair might, just for fun, be made to appear white, green, blue, or red, at the owner's option and by various ways t)f disposing it. Take iu due proportions hair of all the prismatic tints, rumple it, and immediately you have white hair comb it in another way and there is your purple, your ultamarine, youryellow, or any possible hue. The day of wigs has evidently come to an end.

WHEN the British iron-masters lose one foreign market, they generally succeed in creating another, for without a large foreign d«mand they could not maintain their manufacture in its present immense proportions. Thus when they lost, to*a great extent, the Russian market, aud the Indian demand fell off, the reduction of our tariff enabled them to increase their efforts to the United States, as will be seen by the shipments for the past three years: 1869......... 299,19t) tons 1W0 tons 1871 ,05» tons

This occurred at the time when there

however, regards the

quantity of ore as underestimated. The total make of pig-iron is given at 5,963,515. The total number of puddling furnaces is given at 6,860, which would represent a make of malleable iron equal to about 3,500,000 tons'per annum, leaving 2,400,000 tons for use in iron founderies, and for export. The number of puddling furnaces, however, it is asserted, is con* siderably understated.

Cnriosities of Science.

SPEED OF THE EARTH'S ROTATION. The farther we are from the poles the swifter the rotation of our world on its own axis. At St. Petersburg, in 60 degrees latitude, the speed of rotation is nine miles a minute. At Paris, eleven and a half miles. On the equatorial line, the rapidity of its motion is not far from eighteeu miles a minute— which is 580 yards each second. Its whirl on its axis, therefore, is equal to

flight of a cannon ball of 26 pounds forced from a gun by 13 pounds of powder. Such swiftness of a mass of matter of the density of this earth, 8,000 miles in diameter, through celestial space, makes one giddy to think of it.

As the earth sways either side ofthe exact line of its orbit in ruuning round the sun, like a balloon in the air, it has never, siuce launched into space, goue over the same track twice. In its oscillations it passes each sides of the prescribed roadway, crossing to and fro, but never swaying so far from it as not to be back by an attractive force somewhere in the immensity of stellar space, which keeps unrecorded millions of worlds, far superior to this in magnitude, brilliancy, and overwhelming grandeur, in paths in which they are destined to move till the heavens shall be burned as a scroll.

Matter cannot be annihilated". This proposition is admitted to be true iu philosophy. But how originated? That is the question.

SHEDDING ONE'S SKIN.

No animal is exempt from the operations of the law of desquemation. Birds shed their feathers annually, serpents their skins, quadrupeds their hair, aud lobsters aud crabs their shells.

So it is with humanity. The skin, instead of being thrown otf annually, as with those referred to, is all the time wearing off, and therefore constantly being renewed.

The scarf skin is insensible. It is to the trueskin orcutisveva what the rough, scaly bark of a tree is to the vitalized coat immediately under it. In the use of our hands, feet, and ordinary exercises of the body, fragments of skin are constantly rubbed off, so that it may be truly said every living person is always shedding that tissue.

If that process was interrupted, as it is partially, by some who neglect to avail themseives of the benefits of water, the pores become clogged, and their utility in the preservation of health destroyed. Thus the actual amount of scarf-skin dropping off, in a year, would be about equal to the thickness and weight of a thin sheep-skin.

TONGUES.

Nothing but the broboscis of an elephant compares in muscular flexibility with the tongue. It varies iu length and size in reptiles, birds, and mammalia, according to the peculiar orgauic circumstances of each.

A giraffe's tongue has the functions of a finger. It is hooked, over a high branch, its strength being equal to breaking olf large, strong branches of trees, from which tender leaved are then stripped. An ant-bear's tougue is long and round, like a whip lash. The animal tears open dry olay walls of authills, thrusts in its tongue, which sweeps round the apartments, and, by its adhesive saliva, brings out .a yard of ants at a sweep.: Thii mechanism by which it is protruded.so far is both complicated and beautiful.

A dog'9 tongue in lapping water takes a form by a mere act of volition that cannot bp imitated by an ingenious mechanician. The human tongue in the articulation of language surpasses iu variety^of motion the wildest imagination of a poet. Even iu swallowing food its office is so extraordinary that physiologists cannot explain the phenomena of deglutition without employing the aid of several sciences.

COHESION OF PARTICLES.

Rocks, like pebbles, are made up of an aggregation of ^particles, having definite forms, and they are held together by the intervention of a something which min eralogiats term cohesion. That implies a power of attraction acting with suffi cient euergy to hold them in contact.

But cohesion is a term expressive of our ignorance rat her. than knowledge 011 that subject. Nature makes use of glue, the composition of which defies the prying curiosity of chemists. They can't find out its composition. Occasionally it is dissolved. As soon as its adhesive property is lost, the particles let go their hold and rocks crumble till their form disappears,

When a discovery is made of the way Nature prepares that mixture, then the next research will be to find a solvent. There Vould be an end to drilling, pow-der-blasting, and all those arduous labors in stone-work, as soon as we are able to destroy the ^cohesive principle. Nature has kept a large number of secrets to herself,, which have exercisered the pry ing ingenuity of man, and this is one of them.

MOTIVE POWER.

To discover a more economical method than is now fcuowu for superseding animal and steam power, is the problem that exercises many ingenious brains.

Electricity has the iusidfe track at preseut, but it is immensely expensive, even in a small way. An expansion of gases against a piston rod, like powder, .will not act gently. Solar heat concentrated, as Mr. Ericsson proposes, looks favorably. Unfortunately for ordinary purposes, lenses 011 a scale of magnitude lor boiling water or raising it into tanks to fall back on an overshot wheel for carrying a cotton factory, would exhaust the resources of Ring thieves*

Still the opiuion is entertained that a substitute for steam will be discovered. The man who first exhibits a cheap ways of propelling cars, driving, mills, plowing land, and navigating vessels, has a prominent niche reserved for him'lathe temple of fame. 1

Instead of interrogating nature for-a new principle, mechanical philosophers waste their intellectual strength iu attempts to revamp and remodel old oues which defy their efforts.

Dead or Dying.—Where the hair is unnaturally dry, you may be sure that it is dying and unless artificially vitalized, it will soon be as dead as leaves in November. Feed the withering fibers and stimulate the torpid scalp with LYON'S KATHAIRON, and the evil, which must otherwise soon culminate in baldness, will he speedily remedied. It is absolutely necessary for the health of the brain, that it be kept moderately moist with a preparation capable of nourishing and invigorating it. LYON'S KATHAIRON fulfills these conditions, and is the only article that actually

Old Prejudices are Dying Out.—New facts are killing them. The idea that invalids weakened by disease can be relieved by prostratiag them with destructive drugs, is no longer entertained except by monomaniacs. Ever since the introduction 6f DR. WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS it has been obvious that their regulating and invigorating properties are all-sufficient for the cure of chronic indigestion, rheumatism, constipation, diarrhoea, nervous adectious, aud malarious fevers, and they are now the standard remedy for these complaints in every section of the Union.

I O I S O S A A E

We are bound t-n do the Carpet Trade^, We can undersell you 20 per cent. We have large capital aud the very best credit. We are buying five pieces of carpets to ydur one. It costs us nothing to sell carpets. It costs you 20 per cent.

You stand no chance at all of competing with us. You must bow to the inevitable and give to us the lead*

During the past year and nine months we have bent our energies chiefly to the

development of our Dry Goods'business. Having put that beyond the reach of all

competitors, we now turn our attention to the Carpet Trade, and we start out with the

assertion that in a very short time we shall be selling a larger amount of carpets than

is sold by any retail firm in the State of Indiana. When we propose to do a thing that

settles it. Everybody knows it will be done, and

We do Propose to do the Carpet Trade!

Our Carpet Room is over our Dry Goods Store, and so costs us nothing for rent,

ft is t»venty feet wide and one hundred feet long, and is crowded with a magnificent

stock of goods. Thousands of yards and thousands of dollars worth of new CAR

PETS, OIL CLOTHS, MATTINGS, AC., in elegant styles, for the Spring trade, have

LOWEST PRICES! NEWEST- STYLES! BEST ASSORTMENT

Lot of good yard-wide Carpet at 17c. Lot of better yard-wide Carpet at 20c, 25c and 28c. f,000 yards of very heavy yard-wide Carpets at 30c and One lot of yard-wide Ingrain Carpets at 50c. All-wool Ingrains at 60c, 65b, 70c.and 75c. Finer qualities of all-wool Ingrains at 90c, $1.09 and 1.15. Celebrated makes of "Extra-Super" Ingrains at 1.20, 1.25 and 1.30. Rest qualities of "Super-Extra Supers" at 1.25 and 1.30. Imperial three-ply Tapestry Ingrains at 1.35. Best English Brussels Carpets from 1.20 up. Heavy yard-\yide Oil Cloth, 50e worth 65c. Mattings, Rugsffcc., at equally low rates.

We warn the public against shoddy makes of Carpets, pushed off on customers-as

"Family Carpets", "Hand-loom" Carpets, Ac. "Hand-loom" Carpets are rag carpets.

You could make a fine, smooth, pretty Ingrain or Brussels Carpet on a "hand-loom"

about as easy as you could make a wiftch with a sledge hammer." "Hand-loom," when

applied to any other khi(J than rag carpet, simply means SHODJDY-ra carpet to which

no manufacturer will put his namg. If you wish only good "Power-loom Carpets, at

the lowest prices, buy them out of our New Stock.

Thero is nothing we more detest, especially,in a merchant, than "SHODDY

AIRS." This habit of, snubbing people because they dp .not dress In silks, meets with

no sympathy fr.om us. We said a year ago, and reiterate it now, •v'

"WORTH MAKES THE MAN,

OF. IT

r. And the Rich and Poof alike will receive in the future, as they have in the past,

the same courteous treatment at our hands. We shall be more watchfnl than ever that

extraordinary success shall not lead us into

That Are Dark and Tricks That Are Vain."
