backwoods genius.
fln Oregon Boy and the Great Inven
tions by Which he Intends to Revo
lutionize Steam Rower and
the Telegraph.
From the 8au Francisco Chronicle.]
A caveat was recently filled in the Patent
Office at "Washington for a new motive
power, which, in_the opinion of experienced
engineers and scientific gentlemen, will not
only supplant the present steam engines, bnt
largely increase the uses to which machinery
can be applied. Strange to say, this inven
tion is the product of a boy bnt 18 years of
age, who was bom and reared in the back-
woods of Oregon.
Frank C. Crouch is the name of the young
genius. His father settled on a farm in Doug
las county over twenty years .ago, and the
only educational advantages enjoyed by the
young man were those afforded by the coun
try school. At a very early age he demon
strated a wonderful ingenui'ty in the construc
tion of wind-mills and waterwheels. Nat
ural philosophy and chemistry were his
favorite studies., and not only faithfully fol
lowed in school, but fairly reveled in out of
school hours. *
Up to four years ago he had never seen a
telegraphic instrument. Upon his return
home he constructed an instrument, made a
battery, and in a rude way could telegraph
with it He came near losing his life at this
period, from the strength of a battery which
he had constructed, receiving a shock which
laid him up for a month. In this connection
it may be staled that this young man has
perfected a system whereby messages may be
sent and received on board a train of cars,
whether standing still or moving at the rate
of fifty miles an hour. This system render
collisions impossible, and greatly reduces the
chances of accidents of all kinds. It has
been tested on twelve miles of road, and
found to work like a charm.
Another of his inventions, from which his
friends and practical machinists expect great
results, is a self-regulating water-feed to be
applied to boilers. The great majority of
explosions are caused by the water getting
low through the carelessness of engineers.
By this arrangement the water in the boiler
will always be kept at a certain height,
rendering explosions impossible, requiring no
attention from the engineer, and dispensing
with steam gauges.
Among all the inventions to which thi3
young man has applied his attention, the one
which he was most desirous of bringing be
fore tbe public was his new steam engine.
The merit claimed for the new engine is
that by it steam is converted into a wonder
fully expansive gas, by being super-heated
in combination with air, thus giving to a
comparatively small engine great power. By
this arrangement the main obstacle which
has prevented the application of machinery
to many purposes will be overcome, and the
steam carriage for common roads made prac
tical. A great saving in fuel, as well as
weight is also secured by the invention of
young Crouch. The engine and boiler are
combined, and an engine of forty-horse
power will not take up a space of six
square feet-
ANECDOTE OF HON.
JOHNSON.
How the Ex.Presldemt Recovered his
Old Tailoring Tabic.
3x-President Johnson has been noted for
his kindness to tailors. Sone time since he
loaned to one of them the old table on which
he used to ply his shears and needle, and
from which he in an unparalleled career, rose
to the Presidency. During the cholera alarm
of June last this brother left Greenville in a
hurry, taking his family with him to Bristol.
In the confusion he neglected to leave behind
this celebrated table. Mr. Johnson was pros
trated ,by a violent attack of cholera, and
could not look after out door matters, and so
the table found its way to Bristol. Of
course it was regarded by the family, as a relic
too interesting to be lost, and on Wednesday
last, Mr. Andy Johnson, Jr., a son of the ex-
President, arrived at Bristol in quest of 11,
and found it safely locked in one of the A., M.
& O. cars, and snugly billed for a distant Vir
ginia town, to which the aforesaid tailor had
already removed. There wa3 no use in a
warrant in detinue, for the service could not
be made, and as both table and tailor were in
Virginia, an attachment could not begotton
in the State, and one from a Tennessee Jus
tice, could not be served.
Did tbe pursuit end here? Not a bit of
it Learning that many of the Virginia cars
are backed across tbe State line to the
Tennessee switch in order to get them on the
proper track, Mr. Johnson procured from a
Justice on the Tennessee side, a warrant of
replevin, and when this car was being
switched for its Virginia journey, there was
present a Tennessee officer, who very dex
terously switched the celebrated table out of
it, and turned it over to the son of the ex-
President, who now has it again in Green
ville.—Bristol News.

HAGAN’S,
An Old JTolce on Henry A. Wise.
The Buffalo Express of March 17, 1849,
dated the following incident of Henry A.
rise, long before he dreamed of sending
lohn Brown’s soul marching on
Henry A. Wise was a member of the com-
littee appointed by the House of Represen-
itives to look into the iniqnities of the Bank
t the United States, in Jackson’s last term,
ad during the progress of the investigation
le committee had occasion to visit the city
f New York. As a matter of course, they
11 took lodgings at the Astor House.
Wise being rather a distinguished charac-
sr was placed in a room on the lower floor,
ear the ladies’ dining room. After he had
een there a few days a friend inquired how
e liked the house, and whether he had com-
irtable quarters. The house is admirable,’
lid Wise, ‘everything on tho face of the
irth to eat and drink to be bad for the ask-
ig—mv room is unexceptionable, and the
tendance all I could wish; but I am dis-
irbed and annoyed in the morning by an
ifemal steam engine that i3 set agoing at an
irly hour close by my door. It seems to
e an itinerating machine—for beginning in
te hall, within a few feet of me, it keeps up
a intolerable, deafening din for a few mo-
lents, and then passes slowly off to other
arts of the house, roaring like the “scape
ipe of a big steamboat.” The iriend ex-
ressed some surprise at this, and while en-
eavoring in vain to persuade Wise that he
lust be mistaken as to the source of the
oise the gong began to sound for Dinner.
There it goes again, by ,” said Wise.
What do you say now?”
The friend opened the door, and there
;ood a dapper little servant holding in one
and what the Yankee called a thunder pan,
pon which he was tapping lightly, but
ipidly with an instrument which resembled
ae smaller of the two sticks used by a per-
ermer on the bass drum. Wise gazed at
im i Q speechless amazement for a moment
r two then closing the door, he sat down
ondering for some time whether such an
rticle could be rendered useful in any of the
emarkable counties which compose the Ac-
omac Congressional District.”
