THE NEW MOTOR. The Traction Engine or Road Steam* cr’s Trail Through the Streets and on the Whi e Bluff Road—Crowds of Spectators—Satisfactory Results, &c &C. y As was .announced, the great invention of the age, Thompson’s ‘Traction Engine’ nr 'Road Steamer, ‘ was gotten under a good head of steam yesterday* meriting at 9 o'clock, ami run from the Empire Stearin ship Company’s wharf up the hill and and through ilto streets. As aoot\ as a sufficient quantity of steam was raised to venture the ascent, after rnnuing up and down the wharf a few times to get the ma chinery in good working order, it com menced ascending the steep grade lending fiom the wharf to Bay street and moved up with apparently much ease. Some persons had expressed the opinion that in going up bill, if the steam should not prove sufficient to carry it to the top, j and it should stop short of the level ground, |it could not'be kept stationary, but. would roll back down the hill,' ani p »*s'bly into the river, before the driver could ch-ck it. These remarks were heard by the driver, who-is the machinist who brought the en - gine here, and after running with perfect ease rrn»?l breached the middle of the grade, he stopped his engine, and g*zSd quietly arouud ijt the astonished crowd. When be Thought Uiey ought it be Satis fied with this proof mistake, he steamed on up to ttte top of the hill. Reaching life level ground on Bay street he stepped agaio, until he could s*e hfs way perfectly clear, and then ran his machine {•leisurely up the street, crowds of men and f boys following on, looking upon this truly ! wonderful combination of machinery in as ! touisliment, as' it m»wd upnii the street, , puffing and j "!ting along over the rough Stones, looking like • huge steam fire en » gine getting along to a fire on its own hook, independent of horses.

It was then determined to make a trip over the White Bluff road, and <ov that pnr pose the engine was run into street, where an oid ommbusa waa attach* ed, and a party, determined to see .muj thing out, took their seats, soon filled with 09 tunny as could get in, and all being ready the engine started slowly out Drayton, one of the sandiest attests irr trie city. It. made several stop pages before reaching the Park; .occasion' ed by the want of steam at the start, and the fOQt that it <fras difficult to keep up a good head of steam with the material at hand, and also 011 account of th*» newness of the machineiy, not having bad sufficient attrition to. tender all parts perfectly smooth in their operation hpoff each other. VVe % did not accompany those who rode out on this test occasion, but from ali ac* counts the machine w:»a pronounced a suc cess. After going about four or five miles over the White Bluff road they returned to the city. The engine rhn down Bay street once more, aud went to the Central Kail road depot. A great many of our citizens, among them a number of first-class machinists, witnessed the performance of the Traction Engine, and ' the opinion universally ex pressed was in its favor. Upon its intro duction into the country, mar.y not yet apprehended, will very probably appear, but these will be remedied as speedily as pn-sibh;, and such alterations ahd improvements will be uv*de as the ne cessities of the case ivijuirc. A certain point has been gained and there will be no retrograde, rii ive nent. The trii'to of tljo age is onward, and we may say that -the Traction Engine,as a motive power, is sure.

Home, the great spiritualist, has come to grief in St. Petersburg. It -appears that at a seance held on the 22J of March a com in it me oT the professors of the Uni versity provided a table in iIo of plate glass, vh lea white sheet was spread on the door, so that the light from two can*, dies p ace l on the glass surface brilliantly ituaiined all the space beneath, and the feet of those who were seated could be Been by all present. Fifteen or iWef/ty niinntes af icr the beginning of the seance Mr. Home icmarKed a visible oscillation of the table, which aff-cted the flame of the candles Standing on it. ‘One of the committee ex* plained this by the trembling of the hands on the table, and it soon ceased. Next Mr. Home declared that lie felt a peculiar cur rent in the air which he took as a precur ser of coming phenomena : but closing an open pipe put a stop to that. Mr. Home declared then that he heard some light raps on the table, but no one else was able to hear th-iu. The committee remained at the ta ble from half-past nine until twenty mi notes past eleven without any ot those manifestations appearing, which, it is said, are usually produced at sittings of this kind. The next evening, at a second meeting, Mr. Home failed as befoic, and after making furth *r appointments, which he did not k**ep, he left f<e Loudon on the tfß.li, completely discomforted.

They opened the box and there flashed on their eyes the Bourbon di adem. It was stolen the night of the 16th of August, 1830, when Charles the Tenth abdicated the throne of France in favor of the Duke ot Bordeaux. Underneath it vv:is a manuscript, written in French. It contained only these words : ( .. •I am Ciiaretto, the Tendean General. Maria of Savoy was to have been my wife. She was taken from me and given to the Comte d‘Artois. 1 could have forgiven ibis, but he desired me when most I heeded his help and assistance. I revenged my self and procured his overthrow, and am happy since he died in exile.' We quote as follows from the Federal Union of tins same date : A Touching Incident. —Within- the past week aii aged and worthy woman—once the property of the mother of Captain Lewis Kenan, and his nurse throughout in* fancy—came to our citv alone and over three hundred miles of travel, with no other object t.han to fook at his grave and sympathise with her old .mistress .jn file deep distress of the family 1 Her feelings were those of a mother }■ and when’ the poor, sorrowing soul gazed upon the nar row, bounds which holds all that, is moral of him she had tended and cared for as her own, there is little doubt she shared much of the sad bereavement of the real parent. Such instances of devoted attachment aud unostentatious gratitude arc few, even amongst the highest grades of society—il lustrating as it does those ties which sub sisted in the relation of Southern masters and their slaves—making it a mutual joy and a lasting benefit to both alike. The woman here alluded to is Dicy, well and kindly remembered by many citizens of Milledgeville —born and owned in the family of the.fate Col. Robert VV. Alston, and who has never lived under any protec tion. She is i»'»w, and has been ever since the war, in the service of onq. of for** mer young mistresses (Mrs. Reid, of Thorax asville, Gi.,) and the same attentive, un swerving" friend and assistant, as she bad ffeeu the dutiful, faithful ar.d trusted ser* vant. Her mission euded, and her feelings gratified, she has gone back to her home, where, we hope, her days may be profopg ed, and their termination crowned with the assurance of a happy hereafter.

President Roye, the successful condidatc (present incumbent) took chargp pf the ballots, for a«d againts the amendment and declared himself elected for four jears. The legislature denied his right to Count the vote, alleging that it was a legislative function which he usurped) and on the 3d of last mouth an election was held for a President io enter upon the duties of, his office in next December, despite the pros test of President Roye, who claimed that his term would not exoire until 1872.

It has lived with ages and been a traveller with time. It has seen the rise of kingdoms and empires and looked .dowo on their ruins. It has passed through all the revolutions that have convulsed the world, unscathed ip a single vital part, or unshorn of one beam of mor tal beauty ; and still it lives to dispense charities to the destitute,.consolation lo the afflicted and protection to the orphan, tu the aggregate it has never enrolled great er numbers iu its ranks, more talent, more learning, or more weight of character It was never more honored or honorable than at present Aud until humanity shall lose its type of character,,, and morality, philanthropy, and beneficence cease to be virtuous, its crowning excellence will con tinue tp be exemplified in promoting the universal brotherhood of man.
