-KEELY NEW FORCE.
For several years a man in Phila
delphia named Keely has been work'
ing on what he claimed to be the dis
covery of a new propelling force, and
succeeded so well in convincing capr
taints that the discovery was a bona
fidp one, that they have backed him
wiih large sums of money to proceed
wih the construction of machinery
to carry.out his ideas. From time to
time he has announced that his ex
penments were about completed, and
that he would soon give public demon
stration of the success of his work,
But his progress was so slow, and he
so often disappointed the expectations
of his buckers, that they began to
lose confidence in him, and efforts
were made by legal process to make
Ijinv divulge for their f benefit f the
merit of the new force i which ' he
claimed to have discovered. He suc
ceeded, however, in persuading them
that he was not a humbug, but acting
in good faith, and that success was
only a matter of time, and the per-
"fection of the machinery necessary ih
utilise the force he proposed to. env
ploy. 1 He made several public exhi
bitions w.itli . such machinery i aa be.
had constructed, which, while not all
claimed for it, was enough to secure
confidence and further support. He
now claims to have discovered a still
greater power even more managea
oie man tne nrsc, ana in tne presence
of a number of stockholders i the
company backing him made tests
which seemed to be entirely satisfar;
tory to them. With this "force he
gets a pressure of 25,000 pounds to
the square inch, and drives leaden
balls through a pine log eight inches
thick, drives an engine at the speed
of a thousand revolutions a minute,
and a band saw "with inconceivable
rapidity All this he did quietly in
his little shop in Philadelphia, and
there is no suspicion or intimation of
any trick in it. This is what he calls
his inter-etheric force, which he
pumped into the metal cylinders and
tubes in the presence of the specta
tors, and then proceeded to demon-
strate its mighty power.
That he has an agent by which he
secures wonder.ful results is no longer
questioned, though it is questioned
whether he can so utilize it as to
make it available for any practical
purpose, which he says he can and
wnicn nis supporters believe he can
do. It seems to be only a question of
practicability, which he is confident
he can demonstrate Keely hag been
laughed at, he has been "proclaimed a
humbug and a'sh'arpefj who, by cun
ning devices for vising -well known
agencies o power, Jias been duping
credulous men andj making money
out of thpm. But (ill the ime he con
tinues steadily ' at work, and these
icredulous people continue to supply
him with the necessary cash. If he
is a humbug he is a decidedly "clever
one. We have.nevebeen disposed
to regard him as such, nor to laugh
at! him as a visionary, for in these
days of tetartling discoveries there is
no telling what marvelous results
genius - and perseverance may not
achieve: . ' ; ; '

VICTOR HUGO.
Some Reflections on France's GieRf-
Hearted Idol,
To the Editor of Thk Obskbveb. .
All the journals in Christendom
are dwelling upon the recent death
and funeral of the novelist, poet and
stAtesman .Yictor Jiugo, Paris? has
seen ' many splendid pageants, but
probably the most splendid of them
all has just been enacted over the
mortal remains of the people's idol.
"Victor Hugo. The human heart beats
in response to the love and sympathy
wnicn ms great numan neart poured
but so lavishly upon i humanity. As
was said Ql, a ir greater man tnan
Hugo, the people "loved him because
he first loved" them. Greater: than
Voltaire, he is acknowledged to'bef "
greater, also, in some respects tnan
Germany's immortal hero, Goethe.
But as compared with that gentle
prophet who taught upon the shores
of Galilee, he was a pebble beside a
diamond. Tfeey both; taught love to
men i ' Jbut 'only one - taught9 love-to
God.x They both, inspired the cry
'peacebniearthV goodwlll.,to men,"
but only one gave us reason to raise
h;joyoUs'8hcrut,'''G16ry to God in
tne .nignest. ine one was only a
tnari the other both man and God
Yet the Parisians think it necessary
to lower the cross, the emblem of
Roman Christianity, from the dome
of the Pantheon before they can lay
tne remains or victor Hugo within it..
This grand building, once the church
or, Tbt.iienevieve, stanas upon an,
eminence which overlooks the whole
city .;V "-It was built in honor of tbe
patron saint of Paris, and her bones
were laid ht re some thirteen centuries
ago, in the year 512. The ancient
church was replaced by the present
building in the latter part or the last
century. The foundation stone, was
laid by the. royal hands of Louis XV
in 1764. ine massive cross which has
juet been removed towered at an ele'
vation ot two hundred and ten feet
from tho ground, and being on a hill
looked muoh higher. r ,
When the angol of the resurrection
sounds the last trumpet, Victor Hugo
and St. Genevieve will rise side by
side. Let imagination dwell for a
moment upon the scene, as they will
then stand face to fa.se. , Think b'ow:
sorrowfully "she "may say to him-J
rj.au you Known nao , your out
known that all the good y'ou wished
to bring about lor the human race;
could be found in the Bible alone.
how different your course would havei
been, jfour long. lug on earth was
given to the work of reform you
wished to secure earthly happiness
ror your race. a.no wjtn some, only,
some, of the mighty strength which'
God had given to you. you tried to
bring about that priceless boon, 'local
self government' and 'competence to
all.' The Christian's Bible contained
the scheme which would have secured
both in its fullest perfection. The
only possible scheme ! And it is found
in so few woris that he who runs
may read. True, I myself did not
understand all these things when I
lived upon earth," but in heaven corns
plete knowledge is given. Had you
chosen from the Bible these few texts,
and made them ycur watchwords,
you would have taught France how
divine was the Christian religion. 'To
every man shall his inheritance of
land be given.' , The land shall not
be sold forever, for the land is mine,
Baith the: Lord.' 'Choose able'tnn
and make them heads over the peo
pie, rulers (representatives) of thou
sands, rulers representatives) of
hundreds, rulers (representatives). of
fifties, and rulers (representatives) of
tens.' " These last words contain a
system which no human power can
improve. ii- M. I
A Sel t-Coufessed Offensive Partisan.:
:' A- story is told in; Washington
Capital of. one of the heads of divis
ion whose resignation was asked for
during thp week, and who went on
Friday to see Secretary Manning,
with a view of getting some nuiga
tion of his sentence. He was received
with much kindness by ,tbe Secretary,
who asked him if he had not all along
anticipated, removal when a Demo
cratic Administration- should come
in. ,
- "I really" cannot see,'-' said the Sec
retary, "how j'Ou could oxpect any
thing else."' : '"
The Republican offon-il demurred
to this, and said that he had faith
fully performed bis duties, was hot a
politician,; and no one had compiaiitcd
of him. I .'
"Well, now, as to that," said the
Secretary. "I will let you be the judge
yourself. Here is a pile of letters
which I have received from people in
your district. Read them over and
let me know if. you think a Demo
cratic Secretary ought to be blamed
for asking you to give way for a
Democrat."
The ex-bureau chief read over the
letters with amazement. His sins
rose up in judgment against him.
He was pronounced by the writers to
be red hot in his politics, and a fre
quent correspondent of the Republi
can newspapers, extracts from his
letters being appended. His journeys
home at election time were noted, re
ports of his speeches at town meetings
were given, and this immediate re-"
moval was demanded as the only'
thing that would pacify . his Demo
cratic neighbors. When he had got
through with the batch of letters he
handed them back to the Secretary.
: "I haven't another word to say,"
said he. "If I were' in your place I
would do just as you do. I am sorry
I troubled you. I am an ' offensive
partisan, but I'm blessed if I knew it
until now."

Smithfleld Herald: Whilst work
men were engaged in turning raf ta
at Smith s bridge, on Neuse river,;
&unaay last, a wnite man s head was
seen floating down the river ; the fea

chin was shaven, but he had a full set
of side whiskers. The workmen did
not interfere with the head but let it
go on down the stream. The whole
of the neck was attached to the head.
At the present writing the affair is
shrouded in mystery. Foul play has
been perpetrated somewhere, and we
trust the guilty party will be brought
to justice,

to his surprise, the gun uischareed.
