A >Y Railroad officers to the advertisement headed “ Railroad Dangers.” It U plain, dlreot, forcible, and honest, and should arrest the thought of all Railroad officials. ,Tbe improvement - there noted has been thoroughly tried { somo hnndredßof the machines are. in use in *ll tho can of some of our beet managed Hoes; and it is the opinion of aU who have examined it that it win be universally used. It is offered onthe most favorable terras BAILBOAD DANGBBS.—For the last twenty years, or perhaps since the system of Railroads baa been es tablished in this country, there have, In all probability, been losses by ao lileot to the extent of twenty millions of collars. These have been clear, absolute losses to the community— as much ao as property destroyed by fire or sunkln theocean. But these disasters have been of a peculiar character, and, in the main, not those of fire or flood ] they have arisen from the ordlnar, con dltloDSOf araiiroad train In progress: they have been caused by the Inherent momentum that is a necessary property of great massrsof matter in motion. A Railroad Train is exposed to peculiar danger from this cause. Its track of iron and level grade are both made for the purpose of allowing Its free progress, and the very esso and freedom of motion aggravate the danger of momentum. , Again, a Railroad Is Intended as a means of rapid transit for parsers And property, and the component parts of A looomotlve and cars for travel on rails rapidly, are made necessarily heavy and strong—lf otherwise, 'they would soon shake to pieces. It follows, thon, that weight, ease of motion freedom from obstruction, and rapid transit,' all conduce powerfully to oreate mornen turn From accurate calculations it IS found that the effective momentum of a train of six cars and au engine is equal to a force of TOO tons. The truth of this state ment is painfully self-evident at a sudden col'islocor obstruction. This FEARFUL DANGER WHIOH 1$ EVER PBESSNT to a train is only partially recognised by Railroad officials It la, however, understood to rome extent, and each car is provided with brakes', or blocks, urrsogod to press sgaicst the wheels by the action of the brakoraan. This plan works very well for the usual stoppages of a train, when soffioient notice is given to the brakeman by the engineer; but for those cues of danger which have arisen, and will arise, In spite of the most rigid scrutiny, it is notoriously ineffi cient, as all experience proves. It la of do one for an officer to say that nothing can happen to (< our ” train There is not a moment thit a train is in motion but that it is exposed to dangers which a perfect control would prevent, and there should, act be an Instant of time in which a train is running, bat that the facilities should be at hand for an instant, simultaneous and powerful application of the retarding appliances of every car. It is not the custom on many roads to employ more than one brakeman to two or three oars, and on some not more than one to four or five cars The laws of some States require & brakeman t? e&oh two cars We bo'dtbat there should be one to every car, and that a mechanical brakeman is vastly more reliable than one of flesh and blool. Dur.ng the last few years an invention bssbeen made and perfected by the urdersigned, the object of which is to place all the brakiogappliances of a train in readi ness for prompt and united action. The closest atten tion that we have been aMo to bring to bear on this sub ject, aud an analysis of the various accidents that have occurred, lead moat conclusively to this result, vis: that the means should always be at hand throughout the train to arrest the momentum at every point where, it exists; 2 That the engine man, from his station, gene rally sees the obstruction or danger first, consequently he fehould bo enabled, of bis own volition, to apply in an instant every brake; 8, The liability to accidents from bieskisgof wheels, axles, rails, chairs, accidental separations, and defections at various points on the train render It of the first importance that every bar should have Its own retarding appliances perfectly inde pendent in action of any other. Hundreds of contri vances have been mode in the way of continuous brakes, nose of which haYe ever attained a perfect success—the necessary complicity of adjustment, and the total failure of such'a contrivance, often at the very moment when moat needed, are insuperable obstacles to the success of such a device as a means of guarding against, and mlti gating all the accidents to which a train Is expos >d The invention referred to consists in the attachment of a re-, served power to the brakes of each car, placing jhem all In readiness for united action, eithur from the en gine or any point on the train. A description of the mechanism Is unnecessary at this place; suffice it to say, it Is extreme'y simple, and perfectly efficient,- and full and detailed engravings and description may be found in our circulars, to -be had on application at our office. There is another, and perh&psthe strongest, point in favor of the adoption of this precaution- namely, Its gieat cheapness. For instance, take a road owning, say, fifty ears: the flrat cost, at our present price, would be $6,260; tne Interest on this a>onntat7 (or say 0 per cent ', which is nearer the rate that railroad companies pay for ihe uss of money) 1b $562 per year. A company having this attachment to their cars would save the wages of at least three brakeraco, which would bo, say, $9OO a year; while the simple insurance against aeoi deut to life and property which such a precaution would give would be worth at least half the cost of the im firovement. We submit that we make out a strong case n favor of the adoption of such a security. Ana now, then, in conclusion, we add that some hundreds of these Machines are in use in the United States, and they aro on the whole passenger stock of all the following roads, to any or all of the offloera of whloh we refer all parties interested, in place of certificates, of which we have plenty: Hudson Blver, Cleveland' and Toledo, Tene Haute and Richmond, Old Colony and Fall Blver, Michi obigan Central, Panama, ko. Farther than this: We wiilfurnish the machines for ALL TUE PASSENGER AND BAGGAGE OABS OF ANY ROAD, AND GIVE BACH COMPANY fOR ITSELF THE OPPOSTU NITY.TO'TKBT ITS VALUE, FRKK'OP CHARGE. WE WILL GIVE FOUR MfINTBB’ TRIAL BKfOUE SETTLEMENT, AND EACH COMPANY BHALLiBE ITS OWN JUDGE OF ITS VALUE. Can WB do more than this ? . And does not every offioer assume a FE AR FUL RESPONSIBILITY who neglects fora moment suoh an offer? We do not make this offer as mere mean iDglsss talk, but WE MEAN IT JUST EXACTLY AS IT .IS BXPIUSBBED. This devioe will give an amount of security to a'train that is impossible wi boat It; and no company need say <( We know nothing about it,” or n it is an experiment of doubtful utility,” or,'” It is untried,” &o. Wi do not ask you to' inour expense or buy patent rights; we offer-you merchandise of tried, perfeoted, ana warranted valae. We thall send a copy of thtri advertisement to ihe offioe.of every Company tn the Union, and solicit on their part a recognition of the merits of this improvement, 1 add the'extraordinarily low and favorable terma on which It is at prepent offered. , , , - * The universal use of this device, however much it m&y benefit os, will promote the railroad interest, and the publio good generally a hundredfold more.

A small volume, of Ibbs than uintty pages, contains the four Gospels, with ex* collect notes by Dr. Brown, and the price is only rirtr obits The volume Is convenient for reference; and the Christian traveller-now Bods It an ersy thing to carry a Commentary of the four Gospels with him on his journey. The notes are eompiled by one of Beotia’s honored worthies, and generally ran page for psge with the text The wisdom of the Professor was taxed to the Utmost in producing a Commentary that in learning is up to the present standard of criticism, whilst in per* eptculty it is adapted to the understanding of the mess es. Dr. Broan frequently quotes from Stler, Alford, Olshnusen, Ac.; but the whole scope of his notes is practical, with an evangelical spirit The type is, of course, fine. This is, in faot, one of the excellencies of the volume; for one of Its objeots ts to presses much as possible Into the smallest space.

OOGGSWELL’S ANTIPHLOGISTIC SALT, Believing that many are deterred from purchasing this valuable remedy for Inflammatory Diseases by its seemingly high cost, and desirous that the entire pub lic should give it a fair trial, sharing also in the spirit of the season and wishing good to many, we have bean induced to offer it at one half the regular price on New Year’s day and the following week. We do not ask to be rewarded for oar sacrifice, as our confidence In this medicine is sack that for every one induced to try it. we expect to cell to many more of his acquaintance. The Medical Salt Is the prescription of an eminent physician, and instead of being a remedy for all diseases, it is prescribed for but one class, has but one aim, accomplishes but one thing, vis : subdues In flammatory Disease, whatever its form or locality. Already many have been cured. Rheumatism, Neu ralgia, Headache, Inflamed Lungs, and Liver, and like complaints, yield r* adlly to its influence.
