State Superintendent,
The Marysville Appeal, one of the
most consistent Independent papers
in the State, has the following to say
ent; . :
“There appears to be developing
throughout the State a strong sentiment among. the people in favor of
Professor Carr, the Republican nominee for State Superintondent of
Common Schools, We can not say
that Professor Carr is popalar be.
‘odtao he is the nominee of the ReWublicans, but from a higher standpoint—because the majority of the
voters of this State, irrespective of
‘party, believe he is more competent
than O. P, Fitzgerald, the Demoeratic nominee. Therefore, at the
judicial election we anticipate a man jfestation of mere. independent voting, Though the State has gone
‘overwhelmingly Democratic, we beportant an officer as State School
‘Superintendent, and one entirely free
from politics and withont partisan
influence, the electors will be disposed to consylt the interests of Ne
‘gommon sehools‘in preference to
partisan success, ‘If Professor Carr
is elected his success can not be
claimed asa partisan victory, In
Iron Pipe Manufactory.
George Turner has moved his iron’
pipe manufactory from the Keeney
building on Broad street, to the basement of the Skating Rink. He.bas
now ample accommodation both for
making pipe and tarring it. The
yard in the rear of the building is being fitted up fer tarring pipe. The
place affords every convenience for
heavy work, and there is plenty of
room to do it‘in. Mr. Turner has
made a large share of all the pipe
used in this Vicinity and north of.
here for mining purposes, for years.
He intends to add to his faeilities so
he can supply the whole county with
all that is required. a

being pashed forward with all energy. Atthe Nevada'end of the line
grading is being puslied forward.
T. L. Hughes, who has a contract fer
grading a mile of the road, informs
us that he has completed all but one
quarter of a mile of his work. Mr.
Cloonan, who has the ‘contract for

Tur Sumese Twixs OvTpoxs.—
We saw, last evening, says the Augusta Chronicle, a lusus nature surpassing éven the celebrated Siamese
twins. This strange freak is in the
shape of-a double child; or, more
strictly speaking, two children joined
together, The curiosity is the offspring of colored parents—Crittenden and Sarah Jones, of Beach Island, South Carolina. One of the
children ig.a perfectly developed female, large for her age and with every appearance of health. The other, who ia a male, is but imperfectly
developed, has only the rudiments
of limbs and does not eat, depending for subsistance upon its sister.
These two beings are joined @gether
by a wide band, in the centre of
which one of the lungs of these
strange creatures seemed -to be lomale will shrink; pinch it and she
will cry; Reverse the operation,and
still itis the female who manifests
sensibility. The head of the male
is smali and misshapen, the ears
presemting more the appearance of
those of an animal than a hemanbeing. The pulsations of the heart
and the act of respiration can be
plainly perceived in the ligament
joining the body. This ligament, if
such it can be called, is joined to the
girl at the end of the brsast bone,
and to the male lower down. It is
broad and thick, covered with skip
like the rest of the body. Whether
these are two distinctive sets of vital
organs or whether both are dependia

Railread Accidents,
Three accidents occarred on the
Chicago and Northwestern Railroad,
Wednesday, resulting fatally in each
case, The severe rainstorm which prevailed in that section ‘was the cause.
At Lawrence a bridge was washed
away, and the express and passenger
train jumped the track there. The
engine, baggage, express and secondclass passenger cars were thrown
down the embankment, and the baggage master, news boy, engineer and
one passenger were killed, fand four
passengers seriously injured. The
same storm washed out a culvert
near Harvard, Illinois. causing an
accident te a freight train, by which
a fireman was killed. Another culvert was washed ont two miles from
Shopiere, and a freight train ran
into the gap, killing the engineer and
fireman.

~We mentioned a few days ago that
4 the last clean up of the New York
Hill mine yielded about $45 to the’
ton of rock crushed. Hitherto we
have chronicled crushing from that
mine, none of which ever came under $75 to the load.’ Since the New
York Company has leased the Larimer mill the ore crushed is reckoned
by the ton of 2,000 pounds;—befure
the lease the ore was estimated by
loads of 3,500 pounds, Taking these
differences in the number of pounds
ina ton and ina load the crushing
would give about $78 75 to the old
fashioned load. So the reck has
not fallen off in richness, but there
is a difference in the size of aton and
that of a load of ore.—G. V. Union.

Denwev.—The Boston Globe's Chicago correspondent telegraphs his
Paper to this effect: ‘The attempt,
on the part of a newspaper in this
city, to work up asensation in regard to Mrs. Lincoln, is received
with but little favor by the better
part of citizens,. The allegation that
she is perfectly sane, and that: her.
imprisonment at Batavia is consequently an outrage, is not borne out
by the facts, and is known to be utterly untrue by those who are familiar with the circumstances, At the
time she was placed in the institution at Batavia her insanity was very
marked, though, as is usually the
case, it was mot apparent at all times,
Since she has been under treatment
she has shown sume improvement,
and it is thought probable she will
-. be allowed to visit her sister at
Springfield. Like all insane persons, she is very certain that she is
in full possession of her reason, and
lettérs written by her to meddlesome
persons in this city, have led to the
report that she is improperly restrained.of her liberty. Robert Line

in his attention to his mother, and
no one who knows the character of
the man, would for a moment agcuse
him of acting wrongfully towards
her."’ a!
_ Some Carrictsms sy Dickens.—A
New York journalist who met Chas.
Dickens when he was in this country the last time, gives the following
points of a conversation he had with
him: Dickens said that Andrew
Johnson was one of the most wiriking men he had ever met in his life;
and that his favorite novel was ‘‘David Copperfield;’’ that his favorite
‘. character was Agnes, who was drawn
from life; that Theedore Hook was a
very gentle man; that Tennyson's
complaint that he was annoyed iby
‘people coming to see. him was an
affectation, because any man with
long hair and a slonch hat would be
followed by boys in England; that
he, Dickens, was walking with
Thackeray one day in Covent Market and came to a place where there
were two piles of oysters in a windew, one pile being — marked nine
pence adozen, and the other six.

any rate, that the male receives
nourishment through its companion, A well known physician of this
city examined the twins lately
and pronounced them to be the most
wonderful natural phenomenon of
the kind in the world. The mother
and father of the childrea are strong
andhealthy. Twins were never born
to them before. The twins are
about eight weeks old. They will
be exhibited at Masonic Hall for »
day or so, by Messr, Hankerson &
Weatherby, of Soutk Carolina, who
have them in eharge and intend to
take them from Augusta to Savannah, and thenee to New York.
A Merpourne widower with something of a family and a goodly bank:
accovnt advertised for a wife-over a
ficticious signature. Several answers
were received, aniong which was one
that particularly pleased him. The
ful, like his own, ficticious. After a
brief and mutually agreeable correspondence, a time and place were
agreed upon for meeting. At the appointed hour the gentleman was
waiting in a private parlor in a certain fashionable hotel, and shortly
afterward a lady entered, thiokly
vailed. She came in trembling, and
did not venture to look up until the
voice of the gentleman, in respectful
greeting, fell upon her ear, at which
she started convulsively, raised her
eyes to the face of her swain, and
"then uttered a suppressed ery—a cry
the tone of which struck upon the
gentleman's ear, with a sound not
unfamilliar, He lifted the vail and
looked upon the scared face of his
own daughter, whom he had supposed indastriously pursuing her
studies at a school in a town some
distance westward from Melbourne.
The young lady has since been installed as housekeeper in the paternal mansion, and her papa is not
likely to advertise for a wife again until this daughter is married.
Mas. Oarrs has beea doing Long

writes about her: ‘Under ordinary
circumstances to speak of a lady’s

she is unhappy in her martial relations; when she is stopping at a watering place hotel always the very trepieal hot house in the. nursgry of-scandal, and when her conduct is so decorous that Sir Benjamin Backbite
