One at our leading engineers, say the Safety Valve, has brought before the engineer ciiiNi ui iaia an experiment oi so startling a nature in its inception as to piouuse wonder ful reKiilts. It is a monster msgnst made of two Rodman fciins, which are conuected at the lireech. Around the niHgiet thus formed is wound about twenty miles of submarine cuiile. liie cable Is some (but has been used in flie torpedo service. It ie wound and fastened in a substantial mauuer, milk ing a Permanent magnet. When electricity is applied some strange results tuke place. For instance, a bar of railroad iron thirty fret long, if placed iu tb open cannon's niouin, cannot be drawn out by as many men as can grasp it. Another instance of the strength of this big magnet was illustrated recently with a 3o0 pound cannon ball. The shot was placed in th mouth of the cannon on the negative side. On reversing the electrical current it fell from its position, but was attracted to the opposite cannon aud clung to its s:de. The positive current was then reversed alter nately witn the negative, and the heavy can non bull played between th two cannon like a tack between the poles of a tov magnet Before many days there will bo a public ex- uiuuion oi mis remaraauiy attractive mag' net.

"We doubt," says one of our Montana exchanges, "if our people give the proper amount of credit to Rev. Wnitetie, of this city, (or the grand work be is doing in nd ding the place ot gambling houses and breaking up the monster vie of gambling. Few seem to realize the magnitude of the work he is accomplishing. As an instsnce we might mention; that one night recently, in the evening about eight o'clock the rev erend gentleman took sou which he had col lected for foreign missions the Sunday be fore, put it in bis pocket and went down to th Gold Brick, the most notorious gambling den in the city. Squaring himself before the faro layout, the good man begun to earnestly play bis system, keeping close up to the limit, and at 8 o'clock the next morning he had broken the bank aud got a deed'of the premises, while the former pro prietor was walking out of town without his breakfast.

J A.NDBBW Ji KSII.1 (imiK MRPLL'l . -lis Tiews on the Tariff and tha Dan ger of Overtaxation. . Extract from Jac&wn'ii Fartuxtt Addrtss, There is, perhaps, no one of the powers conferred ou the Federal Government so lia ble to abuse as the taxing power. The most productive aud convenient sources of reve nue were necessarily given to it, that it might be able to peiform the importuut luties imposed upon it; aud the taxes which it lays upon commerce Wing concealed from the real payer in the price of the article, they do uot so readily attract the utteution ot the people as smaller sums demanded from them directly by the tax-gatherer. , But th tax imposed on good enhances by . so much the price of th commodity to th consumer; and, ns many times, these duties are imposed on articles of necessities which are daily used by the great body of the peo- Jde, the money raised by these imposts is Irawu from their pockets. Congress ha no right under the constitution to take money from the peoplo, unless it is required to ex scute some one of the specific powers intrus ted to the Government; and if they raise more than i necessary for such purpose, it is an abuse of the power of taxutiou, and un just aud oppressive. It may indeed happen that the revenue will sometime exceed the amouut anticipated whon the taxes were laid. When, however, this is ascertained, it is easy to reduce them; aud, in such case, it is unquestionably the duty of the Govern ment to reduce them; for no circumstances can justify it in assuming a power uot given to it by the Constitution, nor iu taking away the money of the people when it is not needed for the legitimate wants of th Gov ernment. Plain as these principles appear to be, von will yet flud that there is a constant ef fort to induce the General Government to go beyond the limits of its taxing power, aud to impose unnecessary burden npou the peo ple. Many powerful interests are continu ally at work to procure heavy duties ou com merce, and to swell the revenue beyond the real necessities of the publio service; and th country has already felt the effect of their combined influence. They succeeded in obtaining a tariff of duties bearing most oppressively on the agricultural and laboring classes of society, aud producing a revenue that could not be usefully employed within the range of th powers couterred upon Congress; and, in order to fasten upon the people this unjust and unequul sy.tein of, luxation, extravagant schemes of internal' improvement were got np, in various quar ters, to squander the money aud to purchase support. Thus, oue unconstitutional meas ure was intended to be upheld by another, aud the abuse of the power of tuxutiou was to be maintained by usurping the power of expending the money in internal improve ments. You cannot have foi gutlen the se vere and doubtful struggle through which we passed when the Executive department of the Government, by its veto, endeavored to arrest th prodigal scheme of injustice, aud to bring buck the legislation of Con gress to the boundaries prescribed by the Constitution. Tho good sense aud practical judgment of the people, when th subject was brought before thorn, sustuiued the course of the Executive, aud this plan of unconstitutional expenditure for the pur. poses of corrupt influence is, I trust, finally overthrown. . The result of this decision has been felt in the rapid extinguishment of the publio debt, and the large accumulation of a sur plus in the Treasury, far below the amount origiuully contemplated by its advocates. But, rely upon it, the desigu to collect an extravagant revenue, and to. burden you with taxes beyond the economical wants of the Government, is not yet abandoned. The various interests which have combiued together to impose a heavy tariff, and to pro duce an overflowing Treasury, are too strong and have too much at Btuke to surrender the oontest. The corporations and wealthy in dividuals who are tnguged in lurg manu facturing establishments desire a high turiff to increase their gains. Designing politi cian will support it to conciliate their favor and to obtain the means of profuse expen diture for the purpose of purchasing influ ence in other quarters; and since the people buve decided that the Federul Government cannot be permitted to employ its income in internal improvements, efforts will be made to seduoe and mislead the citizens of the several Btute by holding out to them the deceitful prospect of benefits to be derived from a surplus revenue collected by the Gen eral .Government, and annually divided anion'g the States. And if, encouraged by these fallacious hopes, the States should disregard the principles of economy which ought to characterize every republican gov ernment, aud should indulge in lavish ex penditures exceeding their resource, they will, before bug, find themselves oppressed with debts which they are unable to pay, and the temptation will become irresistible to support a high tariff in order td obtain a surplus distribution. Do not allow your selves, my fellow citizens, to be misled on this, subject. The Federal Government can not collect a surplus for such purposes with out violating the principles of the Constitu tion and assuming powers which have not ben granted. It is, moreover, a system of injustice, and if persisted in will inevitably lead to corruption, and must end in ruin. The surplus revenue will be drawn from the pockets of the people from the farmer, the mechanic and the laboring clusses of society; but who will reave it wheu distributed among the Stutes. where it is to be disposed of by leading politicians who have friends to faver and political partisans to gratify? At will certainly not be returned to those who paid it and who have most need ef it and are honestly entitled to it. There is but one safe rule, and that is to confine the General Government rigidly within the sphere of its appropriate dutiei. It has no power to raise a revenue or impose taxes except for the purpose enumerated in the Constitu tion; end if its income is found to exceed these want it should be forthwith reduced, and the burden of th people so far lighten ed.
