The rapidity of the passage of the electric fluid through the wires received a remarkable test recently A message w3 sent as an experi ment from Harvard College to S in Francisco and hack to the college by way of Canada in the space of two.thirds of a second.

The object of the experiment was to as certain as exactly as possinle the least space of time required for the transmission of the fluid through long lines of wire. Letter from Florida. Silver Spring, Fla., ) March sth, 1875. i Ed. Greenesboroi Herald. — Daar Sir,—An unfortunate ac cident occurred near this place on yesterday, w hich, from its strange ness, deserve* more than a mere passing mention. As the up-train flora Cedar Keys for Fernandina. neared Bronson, Levy county, the engineer came through the smoking-car, and in an excited manner, told me he had just run over a man, crushing him across the chest. The train va quickly stopped, and moved slowly backward shout a mile, when we saw a hat lying nerr the track.— The train was again stopped, and all got out and proceeded in search of the body, which we soon discov ered lying near the track, in n fear ful state of mutilation ; the neck, chest and left arm crushed, the head partially severed as though the neck had been cut with a knife. The body was recognized as that of Reuben Tomkins When first seen he was sitting on the track, and at the blowing of the whistle, ran up the road in frontof the engine with his hat in hand. He did not seem to be intoxicated. He had every opportunity of getting off the track, but from some strange persistent inconsistency he rushed or. to his destruction, verifying the saving that, “those whom the gods would destroy they first make mad ” It was clearly a case of mania trami toria. The body was taken to Bronson, there to await the down train to be conveyed to his home near Otter Creek I, Y W. Qhe ijcnild >l. 11. PAKH, - - - Proprietor AY. 91.

The account of the terrific tornado which swept like a besom of destruc tion through our Slate on last Satur day. will be found in fill I in our columns to day. This was the most destructive cyclone that ever visited our section of the country, and its details arc heart-rending. The sad and in some iu>tauees disiitute ondition of the sufferers from this t rri’nle J’rovi dential visitation, appeals with peculiar empha-is to all those who escaped the awful calamity. Aire dy the people are moving to the relief of the sufferers. We are happy to record the fact that the (’ity Council of Groenegboro’ has made an appropriation for t! is purpose and we feel assured that our citizens individually will respond in a spirit of Christian RLcinitty. ADVIC E TO XEG ROES. Under be above caption, we pub. lisb elsewhere in our present issue, a most excellent article clipped from the Perry Home. Journal, and commend i: especially to that class of our population who have been so wofully duped for the last decade l>v adventurous pol iicians. All the Radical philanthrophy which finds vent in amendments to the Organic Law of the land in fu tile efforts to pla'e the negro upon the same plane wiih the cultivated whitemnn, and tke enactments of Congress establishing his social status, can avail nothing in amelio. ration of his mental, moral or so cial condition. The great problem of the destiny of the negro upon this continent can novel he solved by the strong arm of the law. The truth is. the tendency of all such legislation is prejudicial to the ve ry best interest of the negro, Naturally, the negro is adapted to the climate of the South. He could not stand the intense cold of ibe Northern winters—nor could he make bis labor remunerative there, then if he lives in this coun try at all it must be here in the Souih Such being the case, ii is desirable, at least so far as be is concerned, that the kindest feelings should exist between 'he white rare of the South and himself. It iloes seem that the colored people of this country, making due allow ance for their ignorance, ought to have sense enough to realize the tact that the efforts of their pre tend *d friends are not calculated to produce any s u ch desirable state of affairs. The everv act of the Re publican Party, since the emanci pation of the negro, which bad any bearing on his condition, has tend ed to alienate and estrange the peo ple among whom he must live, if live at all, and upon whom he is de pendent for maintenance. These pseudo-philanthropists of the North have never really considered the negro’s true interests and to-day care as little about him. except as r political automaton, as they do about the South Sea Islanders The average Radical p'nilantropist is a whited sepulchre. External!v correct (as far as the ignorant and deluded tipgro can see.) but inter nally full of rottenness and corrup tion. With a wonderful show of love for the poor negro, they have won bis unwary confidence only to use him f r unholy ends.— The great plutn line of sincerity need not be used in making sound ings of their charitable intentions The ripples upon the surface indb cate too clearly their shallowness. We hope those colored people in onr midst who can read, will care fuliv consider and heed the advice contained in the article in question, and counsel their less fortunate and more ignorant brethren to pur sue a like course. According to an article in the London United Service Magazine, Major-General Sir Garnet Wolse ley gave it as his deli b rate opin ion, from personal observation, that “in military genius Lee has had no superior since the great Na poleon astoni-hed the world by his marvelous career of victory,” and he is “even above the gre >t Ger man generals, who have so recently avenged the defeats inflicted on their country by the mighty Corsi can ” THS EQUINOCTIAL An Unparalleled Georgia Storm.
