The feasibility of freight cars to party the enormous weight of thirty tons of freight was favorably discussed at,the mjuter oar builders’ convention, and a practical experiment has already been made on the Union Pacific road, a oar contain ing 1,000 bushels having been run from Solomon City, Kan., to. Kansas City. The peculiarity of this car is aoentral track* by means of which it is claimed that all freight cars can car ry from 50 to 100 peroent, addition al weight. While the railway mileage of t)ie United States is nearly six times that of Great Britain, there 1b a striking disproportion in the locomotive equipment per mile of the two coun tries. In Great Britain, on Decem ber 31, 1881, there were 18,727 lo comotives to 18,175 miles of line, or one engine to every 1.3 miles, while in the United States at the same time the number of engines reported was 20,116 to 104,000 miles of line, or one engine to each 5.1 miles. This indi cates tbe vastly greater business per mile of the British roads, which it must be remembered more than, half are double track and all run through a densely settled country. How much greater the traffic of British roads is than that of lines in our new and thinly settled oountiy is shown still strikingly by tbe foot that while gross earnings for the British lines for 1881 were more than [$332,700, the gross earnings of 94,500 miles of our lines are reported at only $725,000,000, or an average of about $17,700 per mile for British railways to $7,600 per mile for those of the United States.

Gone, while clear ing a piece of pine land, one and' a half miles east of town, and digging about a foot below the surface, dis covered a tomahawk or war hatohet, very well preserved. It is of steel, sixipchea long, and is two and quar ter fnohee wide on the catting edge, tapering to seven-eighths of an inoh at tbe eye; the metal from whioh it is made is three-sighs of an inch thick ; the eye is formed by a weld. The pole of the hatohet is of brass, formed in the shape of a cup, and has a hole running through it clear into the eye of the hatchet, intended, probably, to admit a screw with which to attach an additional piece. We have never seen a similar imple ment, and have shown it to but one person who claims to have seen such, and he says that the brass oap whioh forms the pole was need for a pipe and that the handle of the hatchet was bored and had a mouthpiece mak ing a complete pipe as well as hatchet. Hamilton Disston wanted to return his land that be bought from the State of Florida for taxation at 25 cents per acre, but the county com missioners of Hillsborough have as sessed all in that county at $1.25 per ever will our generation see such ,her crop year, especially in South >lina.

See adv. MALARIA Malaria is an almost in describable malady which not even the most talented physicians are.able to fath om. Its cause is most fre quently ascribed to local surroundings, and there is very little question, but this opinion is substantiated by facts. Malaria does not nec essarily mean chills and fever while these troubles usually accompany it It often affects the sufferer with general lassitude, accom panied by loss of appetite, sleeplessness, a tired feeling and a high fever, the per son afflicted growing weak er and weaker, loses flesh day after day, until he be comes a mere skeleton, a shadow of his former self Malaria once Urine laid Its hold upon the human frame, the door or the system is thrown open to nervous diseases. The body weak and enfeebled absorbs no nourishment, bat subsisting upon itself, the digestive organs no longer perform their functions; thelivcTDecomes torpid, and other organs failing to do their routine work, speedily become disordered, and dissolution and death are apt to ensue.
