A HUMANE ACT.
One day last week Mrs. Horton, who re-.
sides about three miles west of Oswego, saw'
a large pine tree fall directly across the rail
i road track. She instantly laid down the ba
; by, called her husband from his work, and
they both ran to the railroad, a distance of
wine hundred rods, taking an axe with them.
But the tree was sound, and not less than two
feet in diameter where it crossed the track,
the spot being at a short curve in the road,
and out of view from any considerable dis
tance. Worse than all, the time for the train
to pass w as close at hand. Mr. Horton im
| mediately took off his red flannel drawers,
I tore them in two, and ran up the road with
I one leg, while his wife ran down w ith the
i other. In a few' minutes the mail passenger
train approached at full speed, when it was
arrested by Mrs. Horton standingon the track
waving the leg of the red daiinel drawers on
i a mullen stalk. The tree was soon, cut and
1 rolled off the track, w'iththe aid of the pas
sengers, who proceeded on their journey;
many lives and limbs doubtless having been
saved by this really kind and noble act of
Mrs. Horton.

While the decreased number of candidates
is a source of congratulation, the want of in
terest, at the same time, exhibited, in many
instances, on the part of the people in tilling
these offices, is a matter from which some
danger is to be appreheuded. Popular elec
tions have become so common now that the
voters have gotten surfeited with the exercise
o! the elective franchise. They are disposed
to stav at home, and let the elections take
care of themselves* rather than be troubled
so frequently with them. In proportion as
this spirit manifests itself among our people,
! will the standard of official capacity decline.
The control of these elections will tad into
the hands of demagogues, and the tools of
intriguers alter the spoils of office. There
will always be plenty ready to appropriate
| to themselves wnat more properly belongs
i to others; and they will take good care
| to do so in the absence of the exercise of
prerogatives by others. The importance of
having the puolic offices tilled with men fully
competent to discharge the duties thereof,
must be apparent to ail, but if the people
neglect to see that they are so tilled, the tault
must rest with them.—ltich. Whig.
The New York Tribune, of yesterday morn
ing, has not a word of comment on the pas
sage of the Nebraska bill. Greeley is in the

j same situation as that of an awfully profane

vexatious accident happened to the old mau
one day, when his acquaintances gathered
about him, expecting to hear an explosion of

I his lips. “Why don’t you swear, Uncle John/'
said one of the astonished lookers on. 'Swear?'
replied the veteran sinner, “the fact is, geniie
