CO NTS'I' LT TTTIONALIST. WEDNESDAY MORNING. JAN. 22.1868 [From tli.; Newark Avertiscr, Jan. 9. A Steam Man- A WONDERFUL PIECE OK MECHANISM. The old adage which proclaims that “ there’s nothing new under the sun,” has been daringly and yet successfully refuted. Mr. Zadock Deddrick, a Newark machinist, has invented a man; oue that, moved by steam, will perform some of the most im portant functions of humanity, that will stand upright, walk or run, as he is bid, in any direction a.id at almost any rate of speed, drawing after him a load whose weight would take tiie strength of three stout draught horses. The history of this curious invention is as follows : Six years ago, Mr. Deddrick, the invent or, who is at present but twenty-two years of age, conceived the novel ideal of con structing a man that should receive its vi tality from a perpetual motion machine.— Tiie idea was based on the well known me chanical principle that if a heavy weight be placed at the top of an upright slightly inclined from a vertical, gravitation will tend to produce a horizontal as well as ver tical motion. The project was not successful. How ever, by observing carefully the cause of the failure, preserving and perfecting the man-form, and by substituting steam in place of the perpetual motion machine the present success was attained. The man stinds seven feet and nine inches high, the other dimensions of the body being correctly proportioned, making him a second Daniel Lambert, by which name he is facetiously spoken of among the workmen. Ile weighs five hundred pounds. Steam is generated in the body or trunk which is nothing but a three-horse power engine, like those used in our steam fire engines. The legs which support it are complicated and wonderful. The steps are taken very naturally and quite easily. As the body is thrown forward upon the ad vanced foot the other is lifted from the ground by a spring and thrown forward by the steam. Each step or pace advances the body two feet and every revolution of the engine produces four paces. As the engine is capable of making more than a thousand revolutions a minute it would get over the ground, on tins calculation, at the rate of a little more than a mile a minute. As this would be working the legs faster than would be safe on uneven ground or on Broad street cobble stones it is proposed to run the engine at the rate of 500 revolutions per minute, which would walk the man at the modest speed of half a mile a minute. The fellow is attached to a common xockaway carriage, the shafts of which serve to support him in a vertical position. These shafts are two bars of iron which are made fast in the usual manner to the front axle of the carriage, and are curved so as to be joined to a circular sustaining bar, which passes around the waist, like a girth, and in which the mau moves so as to face in any direction. Besides the motions, machinery has been arranged by which the figure can be thrown backward or forward from a vertical, nearly forty-five degrees.— This is done in order to enable it to ascend or descend all grades. To the soles of the feet spikes or corks are fixed which effec tually prevent slipping. The whole affair is so firmly sustained by the shafts and has so excellent a foot hold that two men are unable to push it over, or in any was throw it down. In order to enable it to stop quickly, it is provided with two appliances, one of which will, as before stated, throw it backward from the vertical, while the other bends the knees in a direction opposite to the natural position. VI ... . : „ r £ri-tt)cclvlji ’ Constitutionalist. An upright post, which is arranged in front of the dash-board, and within easy reach of the front seats, sustains two miniature pilot wheels, by the turning of which these various motions and evolutions are directed. It is expected that a suffi ciently large amount of coal can be stowed away under the back seat of the carriage to work the engine for a day, and enough water in a tank under the front seat to last half a day. In order to prevent “ the giant ” from frightening horses by its wonderful appear ance, Mr. Deddrick intends to clothe it and give it as nearly as possible a likeness to the rest of humanity. The boiler and such parts as are necessarily heated will be en cased in felt or woollen under garments.—. Pants, coat and vest, of the latest styles, are provided. Whenever the fires need coaling, whicli is every two or three hours, the driver stops the machine, descends from his seat, unbuttons “ Daniel’s ” vest, opens a door, shovels in the fuel, buttons up the vest and drives on. On the.back, between the shoulders, the steam cocks and gauges are placed. As these would cause the coat to set awkwardly a knapsack has been provided that completely covers them. A blanket neatly rolled up and placed on top of the knapsack perfects the delusion. The face is moulded into a cheerful coun tenance of white enamel, which contrasts well with the dark hair and moustache.— A sheet iron hat with a gauge top acts as a The cost of this “ first man ” is $2,000, though the makers, Messrs. Deddrick & Grass, expect to manufacture succeeding ones, warranted to run a year without re pairs, for S3OO. The same parties expect to construct, on the same principle, horses which will do the duty of ten or twelve ordinary animals of the same species.— These, it is confidently believed, can be used alike before carriages, street cars and plows. The man now constructed can make his way without difficulty over any irregular surface whose ruts and stones are not more than nine inches below or above the level of the road. Messrs. Bolen & Crane, at whose works this wonderful affair has been built, have just completed a hardly less marvellous, though by no means as novel a machine. It is a leather splitter, for the Newark Pa tent Leather Company. It is so nicely con structed as to split, with case and facility, hides to such extreme thinness that the va luation of the knives of a fractional part of the thickness of a sheet of writing paper, would destroy the work. The machine is to be sent to Paris within a few days. Squares. ’ 1 Week. J 2 Weeks. ■ S Week*. > 1 Month. ' 2 Months. ' 3 Months. 4 Months. 5 Months. 6 Mon [From the I.aCrossc Democrat. A Most Strange Chapter. A correspondent writes us from Water loo, lowa, asking if we know of one Edgar Burnham, and of his history. We do. And as it is a strange, true 011 c, known to hundreds, we give it in the Dem ocrat ns it is, that we may correct sonic er rors those who speak of him have fallen into. Eight years since, when we were en gaged as city editor of a Milwaukee paper, there lived in this State an editor named Powell, now connected with a Chicago pa per, we think. He is, unless he has quit it lately. In 1862 Powell was married to a Miss Ellen Burnham, of Brodhead, Wisconsin, after a courtship of some months. Miss Burnham’s parents were old residents of Brodhead, and of high respectability.— The daughter taught music, had a large number of pupils, and was very attractive. Powell lived with her as a husband two years, she being at that time a good wife in all respects, presenting him with but one child. At the expiration of two years, when about twenty-one years of age, Mrs. Powell’s voice changed, siie grew light whiskers, and gradually changed her sex, developing into a man, in all respects, as if nature, anxious for a freak, had turned a portion of herself wrongside out. The husband and wife separated when the wife became a man, and Mrs. Ellen Powell took the name of Edgar Burnham, donned male attire, sought and obtained employment as a clerk in Chicago, and lived a single young man for one year. During this time he fell in love with a ueice of Senator Morgan, of New York, but did not marry her, for reasons not pertinent to this article. But about the end of the year he did marry a young lady of Brodhead, Wis., a Miss Gertn Everett, who was a mu sic pupil of his when he was a Miss Ellen Burnham, over three years previous to the marriage. This second marriage was about two years ago. Soon after this marriage, “Edgar” Burnham and wife removed to Waterloo, lowa, where they now reside, or did not long since. The former girl is now a man, the form er wife is now a husband, the former mother is now a father, the former young lady teacher of a young lady is now the young lady’s husband ! Truth is indeed stranger than fiction, and the above simple state ment of facts borders so upon the marvel lous we could not believe it did we not per sonally know nearly all the parties. Any oue can be convinced, by writing to the parties in either of the places we have named, of the full and entire truth of this most wonderful transformation, which puz zles not only the medical, but the entire scientific world, and which fact appears now for the first time in print, though the particulars have long been known to us and to many other newspaper men and pro minent citizens' of this State, and to nearly all the citizens of Brodhead, where the par ties so long resided. 1867. 1867.

Read the lollowing testimonials: At Ilona, near Marietta, Ga., Oct. 16,1367. A. J. Roberta <J- Cos., Atlanta, Ga.: Gentlemen : X am well pleased with the result of the nse of the “ Double. Refined Poudrette ” on my crops. I tried it on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied wher ever it was applied the yield was more than double what it would have been without it. I regret exceedingly my not using it more extensively the present year, but will try to make up my loss by purchasing a larger quantity next spring. I regard it as the cheapest, most reliable and easiest managed fertilizer within my knowledge, and cheerfully recommend it (as I have tried it thoroughly.) to the farmers of this section, and particularly to those planting cotton, from the fact of its causing it to mature from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would without the use of the Poudrette. I also used it on my garden and found it of much benefit to all kinds of plants. Very respectfully, Ac., G. S. OGLESBY. Extract from a letter received from Professor Martin, of Hampden, Sidney College, Virginia, dated July Ist, 1867 : The Double Refined Poudrette is operating like a charm on my crop, and attracting universal attention from all beholders. lam already fatbfied that it is the cheapest and surest renovator of our worn-out lands. High Shoals, Ga., Oct. 4,1867. James R. Dey, Esq.: Sir: The Double Refined Poudrette I bought for two other p: rties in connection with myself—one of them used it on cotton and corn, and thinks H answered finely; tiie other put it on cotton, on very poor ground, and thinks it doubled hiscrop. 1 used it on corn. It answer ed finely, and was thought by the hand that cultivated the crop to be fully equal to Rhode’s Super-Phospliate. I also used it on about an acre of cotton, and I am-eluariy of opinion that it is the best and cheapest fertilizer in use, and I expect to order several tons this winter. Yours, very respectfully, ISAAC POWELL. Ellaville, Schley County, Ga., Oct. 4, 1867. The Double Refined Poudrette, purchased of you last spring, 1 think, increased my crop of cotton 150 pounds per acre ; pul it upon worn out‘pine land at the rate of 200 pounds per acre, drilled in with cotton seed. Yours, Ac., S. MONTGOMERY. Salisbury, N. C., Aug. to, 1867. James K. Dey, Esq.: Dear Sir : X can safely say that your Double Refined Poudrette is far superior to any oilier fertilizer for cotton; for I have given it a fair trial this season. Yours, FOSTER, Jr. Savannah, Ga., Sopt. 25,1867. Jamtl R. Dey, Esq., President: Dear Sir: I used the Double Refined Poudrette. bought of you last spring, on corn. 1 think it increased the yield one-hale I consider it an excellent manuro. Respectfully, T. HOLCOMBE. Ridgbway, S. C , Sept. 21, 1867. Mr. James R. Dey : Sir : X applied the Double Refined Poudrette by itself, and in combination with other fertilizers, on cotton, and am pleased with it; so much so that it is my present in tention to purchase a larger supply of you the next year to apply to my cotton crop. Yours, very respectfully, HENRY C. DAVIS. Rooky Mount, Edoroombu, Cos., N. C., Nov. 13,1366. James it. Dey. Esq.: Sir : In reply io your inquiry of the results of our ex perience in the use of your improved Poudrette, pur chased of yon for ttiis year's cotton crop, we would beg leave to say that the present season has been cue quite unfavorable to the action of all fertilizers. Several kinds of manures were used by vs, with the exception of your Poudrette, with little or no effect to the crop. Where the Poudrette was used it gave us near half a hale more per acre, and caused the Cotton to open much curlier, and wo would therefore recommend the same as a concentrated manure for the growth of cotton, as well as improvement to the soil.
