Scientific American. - . The creeping ot rails has attracted much attention of. late, andn-hile We do not attempt to explain it we offer a point tn the fact that on lines run ning north and south the . western rail ."creeps", faster than the eastern rail; that is, this strange movement of the rail toward! the south is more marked in one rail than the other, on the same track.- -1 ' - - Furthermore, it' has been noticed that on such a line the eastern rails wear out the fastest. " Both of' these points, we think, can be explained by the motion of t the earth as it turns from the west toward the east. Motion tends to iovercome gravita tion. . , A rapid skater Hies over the thin ice witnout Dreakine-tnrougti, and a train at high speed has been known to leap a broken bridge unharmed. . Momentum overcomes gravitation, and the greater the speed the less weight on the rails. Everything that has free motion is dragged after the the whirling globe, every wind that blows and every tide that moves feels, the influence, and our train go ing north or south is' pulled over to ward the east, and naturally presses the eastern rail most heavily. The western rail, being relieved of us snare of weignt, "creeps more ireeiy ana quickly. . it - is. also no ticed that the wheels that run on the eastern- rail wear! out first, and we can but think that this earth motion is the true cause, i The practical side of this is that- thie 'eastern rail and wheels should be Stronger. .. - 5 CHICAGO MARKET REVIEW?

Hubbard. Price 1 & Co.'s cotton review says: : The feature of the market to-day has ' been the liquidation of . September con- . tracts made, in anticipation of tenders to-day. iUp to 12 o'clock this : selling, taken m conjunction with the disap pointing foreign, markets, resulted in a decline of from ten to eleven points, on September and eight to nine points on : more distant positions. Liverpool closed '. l-64d lower than yesterday after an open ing advance of about one point. There is but little new cotton offered for Sale from any quarter as yet. - Farmers are reported to be indifferent about gather ing and selling their cotton at present low prices.
