The News still xvnnts a free sil

hoeso has introduced a silver bill
i = tho Senate which if adopted
xvill about ansxvor the purpose
Several silver bills IijVO boon
introduced in congress but so far
none of them seem to have right
ring about them They rather
seem to be introduced for tho Con-
gressmen to make a record upon
than for tho hope of getting a free
coinage measure through thoy
seom rather a specie of Congress
ional gullfuzzling that a genuine
effort to securo n silver measure
Nothing has done more to turn

jwihI tho holidays visiting i was thrown off by that same ceu
nd friends at thoDrsl trifugsl force which throws a drop
of xvater from a rapidly turning
grind stone The earth was
throxvn xvith a velocity sufficient
to describe an orbit aroun 1 the
sun and it has continued to movo
in that orbit from then till now
The earth being thus hurled into
space xvas gixen both a rexolntiou
arx and n rotary motion You say
Since the scienco of astronomy
has been applied to the revolution
or rotation of the planets i ot one
has aried in lime a sintIo mo-
ment
Noxv this being so and einco
they woro givau both these mo-
tions xvheu hurled into space and
haxe over moxed with tho same
velocity I cannot imagine why it
should take extra force electricity
to keep one motion going aud not
the other The cases of the top
and ba60 ball aro not parallel with
that of tho earth In the first I
cannot easily see hoxv gravity re
sistance of the air etc soon stop
tho top but it had only one motion
to begin with lathe second if it
weio possible for the pitcher to
throxv the ball ou a line or gix e it the
same speed for a mile would not
the whirl or rotation of the ball be
the same the whole distance
Many say the suns rays resting
successively on diffeient parts of
the earths surface as it rotates
produces thermoelectric currents
Aro electric currents produced by
heat From this it appears to me
that tho earth must have rotated
before these electric currents
could have been generated and
the earth itself converted into a
big magnet Uuderstaud me I

questions xvhich presents them-
selves to mo aud I am unable to

A merry heart maketh a cheer-
ful countenance but by sorrow of
the hoart the spirit is broken
A merry heart doeth good like
a medicine but a broken spirit
dryeth up tho bones
Thou hath mado him exceeding
glad w ith thy countenance
Be not as the hypocrites of a
sad couutenanco
What mean ye to weep and to
break miie heart
Finally my brethren rejoice in
