The Scientific American of February 20th
contains an engraving and explanatory
article of Benson's improved farm locomo-
tive for driving ploughs. This machine
comes along and lays its own track as i*1
moves. A 20 horse power engine of this
type, under field test, ploughed three acres
six inches deep in one hour; and although
the ground was wet and soft did not sink
or slip. The inventor is a resident of Bal-
timore, and has likely succeeded in pro-
ducing a motiye power which will be adopted
by all|farmers of large tracts. The California
and Dakota wheat farmers will probably
adopt it for economic considerations. The
cut shows the engineer standing on one
side upon a suspended platform. The mov-
able track has under it feet resting on me-
talic saucers, which could not well sink
much unless in very soft and very wet
earth. Th track can be laid in a curve if
desirable. It has a steering apparatus to be
used when there is no furrow to run in.
One man can manage the locomotive and a
gang of ten ploughs.
We are indebted to our young friend

Reports of foreign consuls for December
sent to us by our Representative,are direct-
ed to the consideration of the introduction
of American leather and leather products
into foreign countries. This investigation
is made at the instance of the Boot and
Shoe Recorder, of Boston, in behalf of the
shoe and leather industries. The Decem-
ber reports constitute a volume of near 500
pages, aud there is much interesting in-
formation in them. We can supply
Mexico to a considerable extent with leath-
er and manufactures of leather when our
reciprocal treaty is fully arranged. We
supply Ilenduras largely now; the opening
for Brazil is good, if there were agencies
established, and choice of styles studied.
Germany and Belgium supply themselves
and Belgium exports. France exports
largely; but to our surprise, our consul at
Marseilles thinks our manufactures of
shoes are better than those generally used
there, of home manufacture, and that if
styles were studied and some atteution giv-
en to introducing our products, they could
be sold.
To the Hon. G. G. Symes, of Colorado,
for his unansweiable speech on the silver
question.
The speech of Gov. Curtin upon the Fitz
John Porter bill was admirable and effec-
tive, and yet brief.
One of the very best speeches upon the
Blair educational hill—one of the best in
force of expression, far in advance of
that of the Senator from New York, is that
of Senator lngalls, of Kansas. While not
strictly just to the South—for if the
Southern white people were polled to-day _
tliev would reject with scorn the money to
be awarded them upon grounds of pauper-
ism, and to be obtained by taxation of
other States to educate the illiterates of the
South—we say that while the assumption of
the Senator upon this point i3 unjust; his
other assumption that there is no justice in
it, even if there is constitutional power for
it, is correct. Some Southern Senators and
Representees may be representing the de-
sire of the negroes, and a portion of the
school teachers who wish to profit by an
enlarged fund ; but we assert that the old
style people of the South who fought for
local self government, still belie ve in local
hidependence, and self-respect, and do not
ask alms. Although we do not occupy the
same base of thought with the Senator from
Kansas, and observe his erroneous idea of
what the South wants, which we assert the
South does not want; we read his forcible
expression with'gratification,and admire its
graphic and its argumentative force, and
will re-produce it in our next issue.
To Senator Maxey for pamphlet copy of
his excellent and thoughtful speech on the
coinage qncstion.
'l'he Southern Bivouac for March will be
very interesting, with its articles relative
to the Teche country fifty years ago, tha

Washington, Feb. 17.—Senator Moi-
l-ill introduced a bill to-day providing for
the establishment of an educational fund
by setting apart each year the receipts
from the sale of public lands over and
above the expenses of the land office, to-
gether with one-half the amount receiv-
ed from railroad companies under the
provisions of the Thurmau act. Such
fund to be apportioned to the several
States and Territories and the District of
Columbia, upon the basis of population
between the ages of five and twenty
years, and the interest on the sum appor-
i tioned to each State and Territory to be-
I paid to its proper officer each year for ed-
1 ueational purposes.

Jfreviousness.
Sundry members of the Texas Press
are ambitiously filling the high offices of
the State, and are worrying their readers
with their weekly asseverations of the
superior excellence of the men they pre-
fer. This seems to he a form of disoa.se
with some of the fraternity—a biennial
epidemic, but harmless, though rather
annoying as all importunity is, where
the special advocate has not been proper-
ly invested with a mission, but assumes
it. Their readers weary of the perpetu-
al recurrence ot the same idea and the
much worn form of expression, and
would rather have something instructive
in place of the monotonous reassertion of
the superlative excellence of a man who
has a thousand equals in the State in
mental equipment and general fitness.
Somehow it seems as if • these editors
come to believe that their Parrot-like
repetition of the unequalled virtues and
capacities of the individual they have
chosen to victimize with their prefereucc,
will certainly result in his acceptance by
the people of the State : Well! We will
wait and see ; only one individual can be
elected to each office : the other man, or
the other men, must fail. The disease
has no particular locality—it may be
found in spots all over the State—with
the most unimpoitant backwoods jour-
nals as well as with the boastful dailies—
the "leading dailies" so called—whii h
almost invariably lead their best frieuls
into the political ditch. There can be
no impropriety in any journalist men-
tioning his preference of an individual
for an official station—there is no law
against his dashing that preference into
everybody's face and eyes in every issue
of his eminently intellectual but some-
what monotonous journal. The unfortu-
nate individual thus treated, and thrown
at everybody like a base ball, might
properly inquire, if he dared to, whether
he was receiving kindly treatment. Av
erage human nature can be slang-whang-
ed upon one subject till it becomes dis
gusted—average human nature likes to
have a right of choice, which is scarcely
permitted by these platform solicitors
who would force every passenger to
crowd into his vehicle of thought-
each one of them being the very best in
the State. We shall sec something after
a little—one of these will be that the
noisiest agents of a newly patented idea,
are not necessarily the most successful—
that the intelligent people of the State of
Texps are not under the control of a doz-
en clamorous editors, with more readi-
ness of expression, than of solid judg-
ment. There are public journals that
give tone to the public mind upon seri-
ous subjects ; but these arc not the John-
ny-jump-ups, nor the hirelings who sell
their assumed convictions for a price.
A physician writing to a man in St. Louis
intending to go South, said: "Be sure and
procure and pack in your bag-gage several
l)Ottles of Brown's Iron Tonic. It will in-
sure perfect digestion, invigorate your liv-
er, and thus fortify your system against all
malarial attacks so dangerous in that re-
gion.

Stato Superintendent of Public In-
struction-
The office of State Superintendent of Pub-
lic Instruction is one of the most important
that is to be filled by the votes of the peo-
ple next November. Among politicians, it
i9 true, the place is considered of but little
importance, and is only regarded from a
trading stand point, for all that can be
made out it by deals with this or that dele-
gation, in favor of this or the other candi-
date. But to the people, who have the bur-
dens of government to bear, the public
school superintendent is of the utmost im-
portance. More money is expended iu the
schools than in all the other branches of
the State government. To the Superin-
tendent of Public Insti uction is entrusted
the duty of seeing that this money is ex-
pended to the best advantage. The peo-
ple will pay great attention to choosing a
Governor who is careful of the finances of
the State administration. Is it not of even
more importance to be carcful in the selec-
tion of a Superintendent in whose depart-
ment more money is expended than in all
the other departments of the State? To
get the full benefit of this money the people
must choose a man of executive ability,
coupled with a full knowledge of our school
system and an understanding of its defccts,
coupled with a practical sense which ena-
bles him to secure the best results out of a
formative system, while at the same time
pushing the system on towards perfection.
A man of administrative ability, not a
teacher, lacks of being fully fitted for fthe
place. Too many teachers are mere thero-
lists, without what common people call
common sense. These would make the
worst possible Superintendents. Better the
layman, that never wielded the rod in even j
a back-woods log school house, than such a j
teacher. But there are professional teach- j
ers, eminent as educators, who possess also ;
administrative ability of the highest order. '
Where these two qualifications combine in i
one man, he will be found the ideal Super-
intendent. Such men are not abundant, •
but they exist, and some of them have been ,
teaching in Texas for years. One of them
is Prof. Collier, of Mansfield College. We I
know it is not exaggeration to say that in the
qualifications named he has no superior in
the State. He is popular with the people
and well known throughont the State. At
the head of the educational department lie
would infuse new life and virility into the
school system, build it up and make it the
boast, instead of the by-word of the people.
The Chronicle, having ever advocated the
improvement of the public schools, now ad-
vocates the man for State Superintendent
who will above all others perfect the system
into what it ought to be. Let the friends
of education all over the State lend a help-
ing hand and success is assured.—fClc-
burne Chronicle.
The National Editorial convention met at
Cincinnati on the 24th, and seems to lie
having a good time of it. Unlike tl.e Press
association of Texas, they discuss practi-
cal matters. This is some what out of the
regi^ar routine, but is commendable.
Makhg Railroad Oars in tlie South.
Very few recent events in the industrial
world have been more widely discussed
than the order received by the Roanoke
Machine works, of Roanoke. Va., from
the New York New Haven & Hartford
Railroad for 500 cars. That a Southern
concern, and that, too, in a new place
like Roanoke, should be able to underbid
all of its Northern railroad, opened the
eyes of many to the possibilities of the
South. —Manufacturer's Record.

Washington, Feb. 23.—The resolution
submitted to the house to-day by Mr.
Morrison in behalf of a majority of the
committee on ways and means is in its
full text as follows:
Resolved, That whenever the surplus or
balance in the treasury, including the
amount held for the redemption of United
States n'rtes shall exceed the sum of $ 100, -
000,000, it shall be, and is hereby made
the duty of the secretary of the treasury
to apply such excess in sums not less than
$10,000,000 per month during the exist-
ence of any such surplus or excess to the
payment of the interest bearing indebted-
ness of the United States, payable at the
oj t'on of the government.

panied the resolution, was very brief.

Martinslnirg, W. Va., Feb. 10.—Three
weeks ago Joe Burns, a repulsive-looking
negro, committed an assault upon a Miss
Fillers, of Baltimore, while the lady was
on her way from the railroad depot at
this place to the house of a friend a short
distance outside of the town. This morn
ing Burns paid the penalty of his crime.
At 12:45 o'clock a IkkIv of masked men
numbering from seventy five to one hun-
dred, approached the jail, took Burns
therefrom and dragged to a point two
miles outside of the limits of the borough,
where they hanged him to a tree.

Bellviile, Mich., Feb. iit.—Last ni<iht

thoroughly conscious and rational, and
allowing the physician to prolie several
inches into the brain in an unsuccessful
search for the ball. The wounded man
eats, drinks and is cheerful, coing about
with a hole in his left temple.
