The machinery, including a Ivitson picker, and 250 looms, for the Trion factory, have been purchased, and will be delivered* during the tall months. Tweed remained at large but a few hours, lie is now in Ludlow street jail where he will remain until he can furnish bail to the amount of $3,000,000 which is hardly a probable event. If Evarts was to receive, as is reported, $250 per day, while the Reecher-Tilton trial lasted, up to last Monday night his fee was $27,259. The man (Finnegan, who was convicted of murder, in Columbus, Ga., will be hung on the 30th July. He and Kilgore will be hung at the same time. The Sioux Indians are on the war path again. They have made attacks upon settlements near the Union Pacific. Ord is after them. Let our readers beware of “Opium Cures.” A lately reported case has experienced terrible symptoms upon using some of the cures adver tised. The Cuban General Cook denies the allega tion that he is a fraud, and challenges the “al legator” to prove it. He claims to have been born in San Antonio, Texas, and says he can and wi'l forward from Key West a satisfactory account of his exploits. The French Assembly has voted $120,000 to have ajproper representation in the Centennial exhibition in Philadelphia. Several hundred persons have been killed, and many thousands rendered houseless lately in Iceland, by the wonderful bursting up of lire and lava from the earth. Volcanos which have been considered extinct for years, have sud denly burst forth in streams o*f lava, which has destroyed everything within reach. The cele brated" Geysers of that country, have gone dry, and are now emitting vast quantities of ashes and liot smoke, which rises several thousand feet in the air. The distress in the country is terrible, many thousands having lost every thing. The trial of the policeman Cash, for killing Col. O. §. Holland in Columbus, Ga., has result ed in a verdict of guilty of involuntary man slaughter. He has been sentenced to the pen itentiary for ten years. There was a great deal of excitement in Columbus, incident to this trial. There were over seventy witnesses examined. The jury were said to be of the best material of the country. W. J. Park, of Bennington, Vt., has an in come of $15,000 per day—55,475,000 per annum— principally derived from the silver mines of Nebraska. Jackson and Bowen, who were on trial for the murder of Col. Jones, in Terrell county, last spring, have been acquitted. There was a terrible lire in Dublin,lreland, on Saturday last. A large amount of whiskey was burnt in the excise house, which spread the lire extensively. The loss was over half a million dollars. On Saturday last, Lady Franklin was report ed as very ill, and reJ tested the American churches to pray for her. An infamous wretch, named Meredith, lelt his family to starve to death near Tecumseh, Ala. 'L’he mother did die for the want of food, but the two little girls, six and eight years old, were found in time to prevent them from suf fering a similar fate. An earthquake occurred at Sidney, Indiana, on the 18th iust. A druggist’s shelves were thrown to the floor. The inhabitants all fled to the streets. In New York city, some dealers are selling ice at $1,50 per ton, and contract with families for all they need at 25 to 50 cents per week. In Chattahoochee and Quitman counties, Georgia, immense beds of marl have been discovered, which will he of great value. Old Bill Allen has been renomina ted for Governor of Ohio. All the counties in the State were represented in the Convention, which assembled on the 10th inst. One of our Western exchanges says that a citizen of Detroit has in his possession a Bible over 500 years old printed on parchment. It must be a Chinese Bible, then, as nothing was “printed” in any other language 500 years ago. James Kilgore was sentenced to be hung at Columbus, Ga., on the 30th day of July, for the murder of L. F. Coulter, and xVlexander Pryor of the same place, was sentenced to the pen etentiary for ten years, for killing a negro two years ago. At the same term of the Court, Peter Finegan was found guilty of the murder of C. H. Wilding, but had n,ot-, been sen tenced. ___ Cincinnati is said to be the largest ice consumer in the world using 80,000 tonsor 160,600,000 pounds. Senator James, of Nevador, has al most completed his ice house in At lanta, and, it is said, will coustruct others at Galveston,New Orleans and other points south of Atlanta. He proposes controling the ice trade of the South, and will do it with cheap ice. We trust he may realize his ex pectations. From present indications every where, it seems that the year 1876 will be of blessed and unparalleled abundance. God sends His choicest benefactions on the centennial year, and we may not only assert our infi nite gratitude that peace and unity are restored to the country, but that food is more abundant, and the peo ple richer in America than else where in the w T orld. Will the end of such a century be in the dawn of the millenium ? Who can tell ? A boy swimming last week in the Coosa, river, dived in feet foremost. His feet struck the bottom, when feeling something sharp in his toe, he rushed to the surface in a hurry, thinking, of course, that a snake had “struck” him. On examination, he fonnd a breast-pin sticking to his foot, made in the shape of a cricket-bat with the inscription “University Cricket Club 1856.” It is supposed that some English student had drop ped it while traveling on one of the Coosa boats. It was pronounced by a jewiler, to be the finest kind of gold. The Republican papers are trying to induce the people to forget the rotten and tyrannical record made at Washington. They beg for a contin ued lease of power. The eighty thou sand Federal officeholders want to hold over—they have no idea of a sur render without a struggle. The peo ple have already indicated that their wishes are, and what they are deter mined to do. The revolution last fall was the forerunner of the over whelming change in 1876. In Ohio and Pennsylvania the struggle for re gaining power has commenced, but the masses are not moving in that direction. They have had enongh of the swindles and salary grabs and extravagance and high taxation of the party in power. STRIPPING THE PLUNDERERS. Proceedings against the members of the old Tammany Ring have ad vanced so far that there is no longer any reason to doubt that judgments against them will be obtained, and a great deal of their property reached. All of their money or property with in the jurisdiction of the State, includ ing such of Tweed’s as was alienated without due consideration, will be attached. Mr. O’Coner has in view the insti tuting of lawsuits in Great Britain, France, Germany, and in fact in ev ery other civilized country in which the Ring may take refuge, and it is believed that every’ dollar that can be found in the hands of the fugitives may be recovered and res tored. Genet is in Spain, and is said re cently’ to have attempted suicide. Thomas C. Field is living in Belgi um. Connolly’, who is the wreck of his former self, was lately seen in Italy’. James M. Sweeny died in Paris on Sunday. His brother, Peter 8., remains abroad. Ingersoll went to the penitentiary’, “peached” and was pardoned. The “Boss” has been for sometime quartered in the penitentiary, but has lately been re released by the Court of Appeals. This liberty, however, will hardly be very long lived, as he will be im mediately re-arrested and jailed to await trial for new charges against him. We read with pleasure the account in the Rome Commercial of Friday’ last, of the valuable quarry of build ing stone on the land of Col. Seaborne Jones, between Rockmart and Van Wert. The Commercial is mistaken, however, in supposing that there is no other such stone in the country’. In the neighborhood of San Antonio, Texas, there are extensive quantities of it. There was, and we suppose still is, a mill on the San Antonio river, a few miles above the city, (owned, when we knew it, by Col. Alsberry) for the purpose of saving and planing into shape the pieces of stone taken from those quarries. We have seen handsome slabs for grave stones, planed perfectly’ smoothe, with ornamental head and edges,pre- pared in that mill,which,when taken out of the quarry, were as soft as soap stone, but in a short time became as hard as any lime stone. There are quite a number of buildings erected of the same stone,in the city’—among them, we think, the famous Menger Hotel, and Vance’s large store rooms on the Alabama side of the river. We do not remember to have heard any thing said of the durability’ of the stone, but presume from its being used for monuments for the dead, it. was at least thought durable. We are glad to hear that our neigh bor, Col. Jones, has such a valuable deposit on his lands, and hope it will be extensively used for building pur poses. There is a finer opening for a war with Mexico now, than the United States has had for a long time. That y’ellow scoundrel, Cortinas, has been cutting up high shines. Several of his raiding thieves came to grief late ly at the hands of Capt. McNeely’s party, and Cortinas vows vengeance. It is feared he will cross the Rio Grande and wreak his vengeance on the citizens—probably of Browns ville. The Mexican Government has peremptorily ordered him to report at the city of Mexico, and has sent Gen. Fuero, with three thousand men to accompany him, or rather to see that he complies with the order. It is thought, if Cortinas believes he can cope successfully with Fuero, he will fight him, and then cross over into Texas and ravage the country. We shall feel sorry to hear that the innocent frontier settlers should suf fer at the hands of this desperado, but we confess we should like to hear of something happening that would cause the United States to wipe out the Mexican government. There will never be peace or security on that frontier until it is done. Three new witnesses have been found, by one of whom it is proven, positively that Beecher did buy poi son, as sworn to by Mrs Moulton, and by the other too that the main charge of adultery is true, as they were eye-witnesses. If an effort is made by the plaintiff's counsel to have the case reopened for the introduction of this important testimony, the court, it is thought, will accede to the re quest. Its admission must be fatal, while its rejection could not be otherwise than prejudical to the al ready convicted defendant. Yet, at a contest in the Homeopothists Fair in New York a few days ago,in a race fora cup to be given to the most popular preacher, Beecher was several thousand votes ahead—most of them, having been cast by ladies. A Cincinnati girl fell in love with a Polish Count, who only consented to marry her when her father agreed to give him one hundred thousand dollars down in gold and arranged an annuity of five thousand dollars in gold, for her. Unhappily a panic came and the father lost his fortune. The Count and Countess were in Par is when the news came. The Count merely shrugged his shoulders and bade the mother of his children adieu and that evening was seen in opera in the most magnificent style, evi dently deeming the marital contract broken up, because the annuity was stopped. A dose of lead was the thing to cure him. Since the awful disaster at the Cath olic church, in Hollyoke, the author ities of New York have set them selves about examining the exits from public buildings, churches, etc., and in every instance where those have doors opening inwardly they have been made to change them, and to conscruct the stairs of a suitable size. MULTUM IN PARVO. The escaped Cuban, General Cook, who has created such a sensation in Savanuah, lately, is proved to be a first-class fraud Boully tells us that at a negro meeting an old color ed sister was heard to exclaim: “Hold my bonnet! hold my shawl! Don’t y’ou touch my waterfall, and let me shout in the cool, my Lord!” Capt. William H. Brown, of the sth U. S. Cavalry, cut his throat because Phil. Sheridan married his gal. She had sent Brown a ring en graved with the words “Be satis fied.” But he would’nt be satisfied, lie swallowed the ring and cut his jugular Grant wrote to the Czar congratulating him upon the birth of a grand daughter, in answer to the Czar’s letter informing the President of the fact. From late reports, we presume Nellie will give the Ameri can Emperor an opportunity to have the Russian Emporer return the compliment The burglar with whom old man Shutchadthe bloody rencontre in Brooklyn, on the 14th inst., has been captured. His name is Wm. 11. Mooney.

From the 21st to the 27th May, a period of six days, there was not a funeral in any of the cem eteries : a thing which has not hap pened in twenty years. From the Ist to the 10th inst., there were only eleven interments in Elmwood, the principal cemetery of the city’ A few weeks ago, a young lady, a guest in a house in Pittsburg, Pa., arose one morning to find herself as destitute of hair as an infant. Some one had, during the night, drugged her and cut off her luxuriant tresses. An abundance of valuable jewelry’ and a sum of money’ was uncovered on a table, but was untouched. Con jecture points to a jealous female ri val, as the depredator Moulton intends bringing a suit for defama tion of character against Tracy. Til-, ton intends a similar proceeding against Porter. Both Tracy and Porter are said to have asserted in private what they did in the court room, hence the suits Piper, the murdering Boston Church sexton, has been formally indicted The Radical auditor of public accounts of Louisiana, C. 11.

Boy ton’s success was triumph ant. He made the entire trip from France to England in his life saving dress. He was twenty-three hours in the water, and was very lit tle fatigued. We regard his experi ment as one of the most wonderful things which has occurred in this century. We hope to learn that every vessel is fully equipped with these dresses for all aboard. If they had been upon those crafts which have lately been cast away, what a vast number of lives would have been saved. The Queen of England has or dered a complete outfit of them for her private yacht. A boy, ten years old, had one of his legs terribly crushed on monday, in Dalton. Amputation above the knee was necessary. This was from carelessly j uinpiug on and off moving trains. We have often wondered that such accidents are not more frequent. Dr. J. R. McAfee, assisted by Drs. C. P. Gordon, C. L. Bivings and A. E. Bivings made the amputation, us ing Esmarch’s Elastic Bandage, and the boy did not lose a table spoonful of blood until after the bandage was removed. In Toronto, Cannada, at a sale of blooded animals, a bull calf, two months old w T as sold for $50,000, at least so says a telegram to the Consti tution on Friday morning last. We guess the hand of the compositor dipped once or twice too often with the cypher box, or the telegraphic operator was drunk. But the same report says a calf seven months old brought SIB,OOO. Pretty costly cat tle. Whitman says beer is soften ing in its effects, upon the brain. Hence he accounts for Charlie Will ingham’s being down upon beer drinking. ___ There has been a drouth of two months in the New England States; THE GREATEST INSULT EVER OF EERED TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. [From Mr. Bonner’s New York Ledger.] “But I was made to believe that the public good called me to make the sacrifice. But it must be remembered that all the sacrifices, except that of comfort, had been made in accepting the “first term.”— Gen. Grant's Tetter to Gen. White. A few years ago there was a man who had been educated in our West Point Academy’ at the public ex pense. He had dropped out of the array and become a hauler of cord wood to the St. Louis market. Com mon report say’s lie used to be found dallying along the roadside on his way home. Later he was a clerk in a leather store, in Galena, very poor. lie was appointed a Colonel in the army, and promoted, and promoted and promoted, until he had the com mand of all of our armies. Many’ persons always thought that much, very much of his success was owing to his superior opportunities that were given him. Fiiiaily, a rank and title never be fore conferred in this country were created especially for him. He was made the General of the United States Army. Then lie was nominated for President of the United States, and elected. Next he was re-elected. Elected and re-elected to what? To the highest elective office ever created by man! To an office, to hold which, in the infancy and begin ning of the republic, George Wash ington was proud ! An office which Thomas Jefferson and James Madi son and John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson gloried in the priv ilege of filling. And now look upon the begger on horseback—the penniless wood haul er—despised then, not for his pover ty, but lor his gross weakness and faults, coining out in a letter and spitting in the face of the whole American people, and insulting them in the most odious and offensive manner, and prating upon the “sari fices”—“sacrifices,” that’s the word —which lie —he iie— Ulysses S. Grant uses—the sacrifices he made in becoming their Chief Magis trate ! Out upon the poor fool! Who does ho imagine he is? Let the con tempt of the whole American peo ple he lias insulted cover him count less fathoms deep ! OKEFINOKEE SWAMIL The Atlanta Herald lias a reporter with the party exploring this great “dismal swamp” of Georgia, and has received several interesting letters from him. . Explores had not found much dry land, and the reported ex tensive island in the interior of the swamp appeared to bo eluding their search. But they had found gigan tic trees, principally cypress, red bay’ and almost impenetrable smaller growth. The water was sometimes ankle deep and sometimes up to the armpits. Numerous alligators were seen and heard, and one large bear approached their camp one night. Snakes abounded, but contrary to ex pectation, the number diminished the farther they’ penetrated into the swamp. Mosquitoes did not annoy much in the day time, but were al most unendurable at night. One night they had to lay poles upon logs as a foundation for a bed—this being the only way to obtain a dry place to lay on. They carried chop ping axes, and cut out a way and blazed the trees. The water in the swamp seemed to be drifting in a South westward direction. The par ty had made but a few miles in the interior when last heard from, and were still on the anxious lookout for that “island.” It is bebeved by many that the great Okefinokee can be drained by canals leading into the St. Mary’s and the Santilla rivers. The St. Mary’s, especially, winds around it for a considerable distance and with a proximity inviting such an undertaking. It is said that the bed of the river is fifteen or twenty feet below that of the swamp. The Okefinokee is one of the largest swamps in the United States, its cir cumference being estimated at about 180 miles. A REMEDY YOU HOG CHOLERA. Under this head the Savannah News says: Dr. A. L. Norton, of th/s city, hav ing observed in the Morning News that hog cholera is prevailing to a consider able extent in Bryan and other coun ties in th is State,offers a remedy fort hat destructive disease, which lie consid ers almost specific. In 1864, Dr. Nor ton resided in Beaufort, S. C., in which section hog cholera was at that time fatally prevalent. He tried various remedies, but with little suc cess—among others spirits of turpen tine, sulphate of copper, etc. Final ly, as a last resort. Dr. Norton tried arsenic in doses of five grains, made into a pill, well enveloped in a bolus made of wheat flour,and fed his hogs on corn saturated in strong pine-top tea. The result was that he lost no more hogs from that disease. He ad ministered this remedy to a sow having seven small pigs. She was so far gone with the disease that she could’nt stand up and the Doctor was so confident that she would die that he caused her to be dragged several hundred yards from his house. On the third day, however, the matern al porker made her appearance at the gate with the pigs, and they were all raised—the sow and her progeny thrived better on the same fare than the hogs. Norton says he has tried this remedy repeatedly, and ho is prepared to recommend it with con fidence. He has administered it to pigs affected with cholera in doses from one grain up according to age, and his plan of administering the bo lus which should not be too soft, is to open the mouth of the afflicted pig and fling the remedy as far down the throat as may be practica ble. The remedy seems to be at least worth a trial. And still some peopleare nothappy because the lessees of the State road are making some money out of their lease. We know of one party to this lease also making money out of it. It is a party which had an interest in it long before the lease, and a par ty who never made anything from the investment until the lease was broughtjabout. That party is the State of Georgia. It is regularly receiv ing the snug little sum of $25,000 per month. We see no cause for quar relling with and abusing the lessees because they are making Something out of the State road. In view of the fact that the State never made it pay, we think everybody should be glad of it. Some people are natural ly envious, however, about such mat ters. —Constitutional ist . The day following the glorious Fourth of July, 1875, Moses George cf Danville, will have carried for six ty years a bullet in his groin w r hich entered at the battle of Chippewa. The Rome Commercial has received a sack of new flour, from this year’s crop of wheat. HOOKER ON SHERMAN. “Fighting Joe Hooker” is at pres ent airing himsef on Long Island, at Garden City, for the benefit of his health. Commenting on the “Memo ries” he thus gives Tecumseh a se vere and well deserved dig in the side : He made war like a brigand, while many other Generals never forgot that they were making war on their own countrymen. Gen. Grant learned the character of his lieutenant long before the war was ended, and now, if Sherman is ignor ed by the administration he can on ly thank himself for it. The march to the sea up to Atlanta was well done, but beyond that the enemy dis appeared lrom before Sherman’s ar my and followed Thomas, who de molished them at Nashville. It is ridiculous to talk of Sherman’s hav ing ended the war, put up the price of gold, or taken Richmond. He had no more to do with any of these than the man in the moon." He did, however, leave a black streak in his rear, for which, no doubt, some of his countrymen justified him. I think, however, that it will some time or other, be considered dis graceful by the great Christian world. The Chicago Times’ Washington correspondent, treating at length of the robbery from the Treasury of forty-seven thousand dollars, says that no special dexterity is required in the accomplishment of such a crime. The worst bungling thief in the world,if once installed as a clerk, would have no trouble in stealing his way to a fortune and avoiding discovery. The Treasury Depart ment is criminally careless! in mak ing up packages each day without retaining the numbers of the bills. If the Department only had the num bers of these bills,it would be render ed an absolute impossibility for the theif who has them to get'rid of them. The Bank of England never allows a package of money to be sent out without retaining the numbers of bills so sent. This action has served as a very powerful check upon theft in that institution. In the United States Treasury no such precaution is taken, and in the case of the late rob bery there is no possible means of identifying the bills stolen. The Rich.—The Richmond Dis patch says: Grant likes the rich, lie gets under their roof when he goes North. In Pierrepout he gets a son-in-law of the millionaire Stewart, whom he tried to crowd into his Cabinet. Defeated in that, he comes pretty near getting the son-in-law. We rather like the inclination of General Grant in this matter. Rich ministers w ill hardly trouble themselves with scurvy schemes of self-appropriation. Grant in not the only man in Amer ica who likes the rich. It is a com mon failing in all the world, and es pecially in the United States. The number of persons w 7 ho prefer the poor may be put down as a hopeless minority. Sometimes a candidate for oilice proclaims himself the friend of the poor, but we know what sort of poppy-cock that is. The new post office building in Chicago has been so badly construct ed that it will have to be taken down and rebuilt from the foundations. Bad cement and rotten stone have caused the trouble, which is being officially investigated by experts. Incidentally some queer tricks have been exposed. One of them is thus related: As some workmen were turning a large platform stone, for which the Government had already paid a good price, they dropped the weighty article, and it was broken into three pieces. The contractor had the broken bits dressed into uni form blocks, charged the government again for the stone in its triplicate form, and also for the recutting, and utilized the fragments in another part of the building. There is an old story about a cler gyman leaving his parrot, squirrel and monkey in a room together, and returning to find that a terrible trip partite tight had occurred. The feathers had been pulled from the back of the parrot, the monkey had lost pieces of his flesh from various parts of his body, and the squirrel’s tail had been bitten off. The parrot was perched disconsolately on the back of a chair, and, upon the en trance of the clergyman, it explained in a pitiful tone, “We’ve had a hell of a time.” Wasn’t the Beecher- Bowen-Tilton three-cornered fight of somewhat the same sort ? And couldn’t one of them aptly use the words of the parrot ? France now seems to be the reser voir into which the gold of the world is pouring. In the first three months of the present year the im ports of the precious metals exceed ed 530,000,000 francs or seventy mil lion dollars, and almost four-fifths of the whole was in gold coin and bul lion. The sources of this supply were much more various than may be supposed, for much less than one half was sent from England. The United States contributed about ten million dollars. It is said that when a Spaniard eats fruit he always plants the seed there of for the benefit of posterity. Asa result, no country is so, bountifully blessed with fruit as Spain. The May or of Topeka, Kansas, appears to be imbued with similar unselfishness. One afternoon last week, at his re quest, all business was suspended in the town and the whole popula tion went to work and planted in the town about one thousand shade trees of several varieties. This is better than “spelling bees.” A Challenge.— The Washington Chronicle says: “Before the spelling mania dies out, why not settle all outstanding difficulties existing be tween the North and South by a grand sectional spelling match. If the South spells down, let John Young Brown plant tjie Confederate flag on Bunker Hill. Jf the North proves the victor, let Southern De mocracy agree not to object if we fire a few guns in honor of Antietam or Gettysburg.” __ _ A boy in Williamstown, Maas., became a man in this way: While hoeing corn one afternoon he turned to his father, who was working with him, and said: “What time is it father?” “Half past 2,” replied the senior farmer. Throwing down his hoe, the son graduated from his farmer life with this remark: “Twen ty-one years ago, father, at half past 2 in the afternoon, I was born ; you can do your own hoeing after this!” At the heels of the murder of Col. Jell Johnson, the Rome Commercial reports the shooting of Mr. Billy King, from an ambuscade on the county line between Floyd and Chat tooga, a few days ago. His wounds are not of a fatal character. The as sailant not known. The small amount of 15,258,000 is yet required to be raised to “get up” the Philladelphia Centennial show. THE MOTOR. That Invention which is to Itevolu'lonize the World. [Cairo Bulletin.] Recently, the Chicago Tribune contained a Washington dispatch that a caveat fora novel invention—a new motive power—had been tiled in the l'ateut Otlicc. The inventor claims says the dispatch, that this motor will super code coal and wood lor all purposes except warmth and cooking, and that it will revolu tionize the present system of motive power. This inventor’# name is Keely. He first dis covered this principal he has developed in his motor while attempting to make a power sav ing w ater wheel; and a few years ago applied tlie power, which is produced from water with out fire or chemicals,to machinery— to running stationary engines. lie first experimented upon a little engine that would stand upon the nalm of a man's hand. When the pow er was let on the engine moved. The weight ol the inventor who stood upon the board laid lrom the rung of a chair to the engine in a way to test its power, could not stop it. It moved the board and its burden up and let it down with great ease. To test the power that had been obtained, Mr. Keely then made a cylinder of drawn cop per, encased this in wrought iron, and placed around both steel hands close together—a pow erful cylinder. The power was turned on,and the cylinder was torn to pieces in an instant. Then a thrcc-horse power engine was built, and finally a fifteen-horse. These engines have been run in Philadelphia every day for a year without the use of coal or wood, withont the vise of lire, and withont the use of chemicals, at a cost of not one cent. The fifteen-horse power engine has been run twenty three con secutive hours with power manufactured in less than five minutes.. These facts we learned from a gentleman interested in the invention who lias seen the engines nearly everv day,and who could not possibly have ariv object in tell ing falsehoods in reference to this wonderful discovery. The dispatch to which we have alluded says the scientific experts who have examined it state that the invention is entirely practicable, and will he patented. If it is practical (and that it is we have not the shadow of a doubt,) what a revolution the invention will work in the world! It will su percede steam, and will solve the cheap transportation problem. Loco motives cn run from Cairo to Chicago withont stopping for either coal or wa ter. Smokestacks of steamboats will disap pear, their boilers be taken out, and the great expense ol' fuel be saved to them. The great daugcr of lire and explosion will be removed from rivers, and their surface will iairly swarm with all kinds of water crafts, propelled by Keely’s motor, for it can be used as well as on a greater hull. The power is obtained from water. By a me chanical contrivance Mr. Keely changes water from an unelastic fluid, which can be called by no better name than cold steam. In other words, Mr. Keely obtains from water withont using fire or chemicals the power now obtain ed from water by fire, and called steam. It is indeed a wonderful invention, and as we have said before, is destined to work a great revolu tion in the world, a greater revolution than that made aithcr by the cotton gin, the steam engine, or the telegraph. And in the language of Col, Sellers, “there’s millions in it.” Sxm for catalogifjss. THE JAS. FEFFEF~~ Double Turbine Water Wheel, Manufactured by I W POOLE & HUNT, Baltimore, Hd.
