Tbe Reading road crosses tbe Pennsylvania road at tbat point, nd b train or empty oars was standing aoroes the latter track. About tbia time tbe Paoiflo Express came dashing along, and before tbe engineer bad time to check the speed of tbe locomotive It had d.ishud through a coal ear and was tearing along at Its regular speed towards Uarriaburg, witb only tbs loss of the cow oatcher.

"The wrecked car was struck amid tbe wheels and broken completely Into atoms, tbe splinters flying In all directions, but luckily hitting no one. Tbe shock was distinctly felt by tbe rail road employees who were siuiug on the Iront sod back ends of the coal train.

I h (ciine of the pip., lines In this country, Fraud beneeforlb lake its place as a fine art h rrf. After pnoketing the money for the nij the pipe ima cbnrgi' s'oraire and shrinkage on their paper petiole, It is plain that tbe market ia manipulated by paper ol and paper contrac's which Can be supplied ad libitum. Let us stoj) pumping long enouuh to dry these fellows up, and start tbe busi ness in a Dew and natural channel. During tbe past lew days reports have been current tbat tbe different pipe lines throughout the district bave run 'short.' he natural Inquiry bas been, bow is It that such should be tbe case when but a week or two ago their tanks wero overflow ing, and there was a reported stock of 000, 000 barrels on band? Our exchanges say tbat tbe Pennsylvania Transportation Com pany is 200,000 barrels short. Wby is It that but a few dais sine the rrfiacrs boast ed of bsving enough oil on band to carry them for six months? It appears to us like a revelation, tbe opening ot a enaled book. The reported shorts' of tbe Aatwerp aud Mutual pipe lines, Is, so far as we can learn, partly correct. Now what Is tbe fleet up on the producer? Let us Icok at It. On tbe first day of October, A. delivered to tbe Pipe company one tbousaud barrels or oil, receiving tberefor a certificate, good for that amount. He goes to tbe dealer and sells bis oil on tbe 18tb, receiving therefor foar thousand dollars. It is then out of bis bands and be Is safe. But if be effers bis oil and tbe dealer sajs, "your certificate Is worth nothing, the pipo line has oo oil, ere bas been half a dozen with certificate. but there is not a barrel in tbe Compani'a tanks I wou't buy " Wby it becomes a serious mailer, li is alleged tbat the pipe lines are io tbis condition. If so it show ihm namely, that tbey bave been speculating upon the oil ol the producer, aud further tbat tbey might be continued bad oot the shutting down of the wells, revealed tbe fraud, by lessening tbe production, and con. sequeotly causing them to fail In part or wbole, to All their contracts. It would ap pear that the pipe lines have sold the ui' 'jr which tbey bad given certificates, rely ing upon a coustant production., to supply tbe deficit I The production bas stopped. Tbere b. no supply. Tbe fraud la visible to tbe most iioaiisproting. 1 1 tbeir darkest hours tbe producers Dnd that tbey have also to fight the pipe lines, find that tbey are robbiug tbeni ot their oil which they ore endeavoring to eavi t Tie- wbolo mutter stands lhu, lor ll;ust.(allon A give II. a Check for 1,00(1, I), presents it at the bunk and is informed that A. ba no money In that b.ink, A. reader himself liable to prosecution, s i do tbe p!;e companies And If Ihey fail to meet their obligations, it is wise to seen and obtain redress. J A Itallroatl Hero. A brief history of ibe career of a railroad hero is ibns related: His name is B illy Ely lie tells it about himself. He was s lailioad engineer. His engine was faitblul, and be was kind. Everybody liked him, and sol their watches and clocks by bis train. One day, as usual, be was on time. Swift rolled tbe Iron sieed on its way. Bully IMy was at bis post. It was In tbe blackberry seofon on Saturday. As be came round the curve don't you know, tbat curve which is al ways found in a railroad story, ascertain as love In b novel, a sort of turning point, a one might say? be spied numerous child ren upon tbe track where it was hedged in by woods and briar. In an instant be saw tbat no ordinary means could save those In nocent beings. His engine was at her high. eat speed. But, hesitating not,. He shut ber off spit on bis bends lie made one awful plunge; Witb all his strength be grabbed her wheel Wbile in tbe ground he sunk bis heel, And held ber fast, and tbey were saved. Alas I bow do our petted neravles, our .Eneas, our Hector, our U yeses, our Agamemnon, sink into tit lei Insignificance before tbe might acd courage of tbis truly noble man.

Tbe Adventurer, a whale ship ofSydmy, recently arrived at Auckland fioin a cruise among the South Sea Islands, in the course of which ber chief officer, Mr. Turnbull, af murdered at one of tbe New-IIrbrldeg Islands. Tbe following is a brief sketch of Ibe experiences of tome of ber crew who deserted at one cf tbe Island pradles: Wbile the Adventurer was lying at one of tbo South Sea Islands wbicb seemed to pron. ise every luxury io which a runaway sailor could indulge, In In one ullit, while the ves sel was lying quietly at anchor, five ot the inea tooH one ot the boats belonging to the ship and rowed asaore, taking with them a number of hatchetr, ship's knives, eta. On landing they made- their wey to a native village, some three sileeoff, and altboupb a search was made for them by the s -t crew tbey could not be found. Tho cap tain bad experience ol tbis sort ol thing be fore, so be sol sail without tbem, but return, ed to tbe same harbor in tbe course or two or three weeks. A cauoe then came off w:.b an old chief and several natives for the pur pose of trading with tbe vessel. Tbe cap tain at once seized the chief and put bim in In irons, and sent the other natives back, witb instructions to bring off tbe five di sett ers mat night lor Ibe ship would sail away with tbe ohief. The savages made ail tbe baste tbey could, and although It was tlien nearly dusk tbey returned shortly after dark with tbe Ave descrlcts, end every article Ibey had taken ashore witb tbem. Tbe chief was tbenallowed to go at large. Tbe deEeiters presented a most wretched appears ance. They were stripped of tbeir cloth ing, tbeir bodies wero covered with (ores from bead to foot, and tbey were nearly starved to death. Tbey slated that im mediately on tbe vessel's departure tbey hud received the most scurvy treatment froui natives, wbo looked npoa them witb jealous eyes, and were several t'rrnS goiig to murder tbem. They described tbe mode of livina. etc.. of tbe savages, scenos cf strife and bloodshed beiug of tbe most com mon occurrence. One night, wbile Ibe de-erters were lying in a but with a number of native., not daring to- call their )iveg their owo, an altercation took place between a sivaga end bis wifn.
