A Steam Manx.—A Wonderful ptece of Mechanism,—
The old adage which prociains that ‘there's nothing
new wuder the sun,” has been —- and yet suc-
cessfully refuted by Mr. Zadock Dedd a Newark Ma-
chinist, has invented a man; one that, moved by steam,
will perform some of the ‘most important functions of
eet that will, stauding upright, walk or run, as
he 4s bid, in any direction, and at almost avy rate of
speed, drawing after him a load whose weight would
tax the stre: of three stout draught horses. The his-
tory of this curious invention is as follows :—
years ago, Mr, Dedderick, the inventor, whe is at
present but 22 years of fae. Sonevived the novel idea of
constructing a man that id receive its vitality from
a pe motion machine, ‘The idea was based on
the well known mechanical principal that if a heavy
weight be placed on the top of an upright, slightly in-
clined from a vertical, gravitation will tend to prodace
# horizontal as well as a vertical motion.
The ae ag was not successful. However, by obser-
carefully the cause of the failure, preserving and
ting the man form, and by substituting steam in-
stead of the perpetual motion machine, the present suc-
eee3 Was attained.

The man stands seven feet nine inches high, the other
imensions of the body being correctly proportioned,
making hin a second Daniel Lambert, by which name
he tiously spoken of among the ‘workmen. He

weighs five hundred pounds, Steam |s generated In the
body or trunk which is nothing but a three horse power
engine, like those used'In our steam fl.e engines. ‘The
cee which support it are complicated and wonderful.
‘The steps are taken very naturally and quite easily. As
the body Is thrown forward upou the advanced foot, the
other is lifted from the ground hy a spring and thrown
forward by the steam. Each step or pace advances the
body two feet. and every revolution of the engine pro-
duces four paces. As the engine is capable of perform-
ing more than a thousand revolutions a ininute, it would

it over the ground, on this calculation, at the rate of a

ttle 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 min-
ute, which would walk the man at the modest speed of
half a mile a minute.

The fellow is attached to a common Rock-away car-
»Tlage, the shafts of which serve to support him ina ver-

tical 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 cir-
cular sustaining bar, which passes aroyndthe waist, like
a girth, and in which the man meves so as to face in
.any direction. Besides these motions, machinery bas
been arranged by which the figure can be thrown back-
ward or forward froma vertical, nearly forty-five de-
rees. This is done iu orderto enable it to ascend or
descend all grades. To the soles of the feet spikes or
corks are fixed which eventually prevent slipping. The
whole affuir is so firmly sustained by the shafts and has
so excellent a foot hoki that two men are unable to push
, 1t over, or in any wayto throw it down. In order to
enable it to stop quickly, it is provided with two appll-
ances, one of which will, as before stated, throw it back-
ward from the yertical, while the other bends the kuces
in a direction opposite to the natural position.

An “pris it post, which Is aryanged:in front of the dash
board, antl within easy reach of the front scats, sustains
two minature piiuc wheels, by the turning of «which,
these V2, 100s motions apd evolutions .are directed. It
is éxpected that a sufficiently 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 halfa day.

In order to.prevent ‘ the giant” from frightening horses
‘by Its wonderful appearance, Mr. Deddrick Intends to

_ clothe It and give: it as nearly as possible a likeness to

_ the rest of humanity. The boilerand such parts as are
necessarily heated will be encased in felt or woolen un-
der garments. Pants, coat and vest, of the latest styles,
are provided. Whenever the fires need coaling, witich
is every two or three hours, the driver stops the ma-
chine. 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 sholders
the steam cocks and gauges are placed As these would
cause the coat to set awkwardly, a knapsack has been
provided which completely covers them. A blanket
neatly rolled up and placed on tap.of the knapsack tpet-
fects the delusion. The face is moulded into a cheerful
countenance of white enamel which contrasts well with
the dark hairand moustache. Ashect iron hat with a
gauge top acts as a smoke stack.

The cost of this ‘* first man”, is $2,000, though the ma-
kers, Mcssrs. Deddrick & Grass, expect to manufacture
succeeding ones, warranted torun a year without re-

, for $500. 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, cau be used alike béfore
carriages, street cars and ploughs. The man now con-
structed can make his way without difficulty over any
irregular surface Whose rute and stones are not more
than nine inches above the level of the road.

Messrs: Bolen & Crane, at whose works this wonder-
ful affair has been built, have just completed a hardly less
marvellous, though by no means as novelamachine. It
is a, leather splitter. for the Newark Patent Leather

. Company. Itisso nicely constructed as to split, with
ease and facility, hides to such extreine thinness that a
variation in the knives of afractional part of the thick-
ness of a sheet of writing paper, would destroy the
work. The muchine is to‘beseut to V’aris within a few

, days,

him better’ urtil the large
sums at stake would frighten from ‘calling,’ and thus
ensure them the * pool.’ Phey tried it on the Commodore.
Firat one would beta few thousand and others would sre
that sum and go several thousand better, Finally the
amount in the pou! had increased to « eum far in excess of the
ready funds which he eould command, The Com-
modore, however, had no intention of being ‘ bluffed’ off.
He saw ther game, Calling a negro, he asked him if he
would ask the Captain down, The Captain appeared, when
the following conversation ensued :

“Captain can you tell me who owns this boat

*1 do sir.

* What do you call it worth?’
me. cannot tell exactly, but I should say thirty thousand

*Wiull you take that sum for it.’

* Yes.”

‘Very well. I am Commodore Vanderbuilt of New
York.” Then writing a check for thirty thousand dollars.
‘It will be honored at our first stopping place.’

* Having done this the Commedore turned round to the
table and said to the gamblers: +1 see the lest amount, and
* go it better’ to the extent of the Boat.” The gang was not
prepared for this coup etat. They were not able to ‘see’
the Commodore's ‘rive,’ and he consequently coolly swept
off the contents of the * pool.’

ADVERTISING WILL DO AyyTruIna.—lIt broke:a path
through the snow iv Springfield recently, as witness the
following from the Republican:—'> The .late storm so
filled one of our new and smaller streets with enow that
it became almoet an impossibility to pass through it,
bat as only two houses were on that street, and only
two pereons had occasion to pass through it daily, the
taek of breaking a path becaine aformitlable ove, and
the expenee of having it broken would by no means be
trifling. One of ite two inhabitants, however, had an
eye for business. Inthe Republican he inserted an ad-
vertisement offering bis house for sale at a mere song.
The plan worked like a dharm. From immediately
after breakfast until late at night, aud on the next day
aleo, a stream of hungry speculators of all eexes and na-
tions, on foot, and in sleighe and carriages, poured
down the blockaded street to seoure the great bargain.
Of course they wore all just too late, as they were told,
but long before the last had departed, the last anow
drift had vanished, and the street was smooth and .hard
ag a plank fluor—and all for half a dollar !

Wuam an Epucatep Max Over ro Know.—Rus-
kin saye:—‘'t An educated man ought to know three
things; first, where he is—that is to say, what kind of
a world he has got into; how large it is; what kind of
creatures live in it, and how; what it is mate of, and
what may be made of it. Secondly, where he is going
—that is to say, what chances or reports there are of
any other world besides: what seems to be the nature
of that other world. Thirdly, what he had best to do
under the circumstances; what are the present state
and wants’df mankind; what are the readiest means in
his power of attaining bappiness and diffusing it. The
man who knows these things and who has bis will so
subdved that be is ready to do what he knows he ought,
is an educated man; and the man who knows them not
: ew although he oan talk all the tongues ol

abel.

Eiout to Sixrerx.—Lord Shaftsbury recently sta
ted ina public meeting in London, that, from personal
observation, be has ascertained that of adult male crim-
inals in that vity, nearly all had fallen in the course of
crime between the ages of eight and sixteen years ; and
that if a young man lived an honest life up to twenty
years of age, there were forty-nine chances in favor and

one against him, as to an honorable life thereafter,
| This is w fact of singular importance to fathers and mo-

thera, and shows a fearful responsibility. Certainly, a
parent should secure and exercise absolute control over
the child under seventeen. It cannot be a difficult mat-
ter'to do this, except in very rare cases; and if that
cottrol is not very wisely and efficiently exercised, it
must be the parent's fault, itis owing tu the parental
neglect or rewissness, Hence the real source of nine-
ty-eight per cent, of a real crime in a eountry such as
England or the United States, lies at the dour of parents
It is a fearful reflection.

An Astonisuina CLAp or Titunper.—A family in
the country has been losing stove-wood for several
weeks past. On the return of the family afew days
since, the case was stated, and on Sunday a pretty
piece of fuel was placed on the pile with the others. In
the stick were two ounces of powder for eufe keeping.
Monday the stick was there—Tueaday the stick was
there, and the laugh was getting on the man who fixed
it. Wednesday morning the stick was gone. Wednes-
day morning an explosion wat heard in a house near
by, and the kitchen was spared no panes, A kettle of
cubbage wae shot up through the roof like an arrow.
Some boiling coup made a map on the ceiling. The cat
has not been heard of since, but a swell of burnt hair
pervades that house, The ocoupant of the ruin says:
‘Such tunder never come perfore, I py us litenju’
rod to-morrow, py tam."’—AMontreal Paper.

Mr. E. Cunard, has written a letter to a Boston
merchant with reference to the experience of the dine at
that port. He says that during the past autamn they
have been sending to Englaad an average of 2-600 tons
of freight a week, or 10,000 tons & month, in their ships
from New York, and have been unable to get 500 or
600 tons of freight at Boston, at one-half the rates char-
ged in NewYork. Boston shippers complained of pay-
ing 208. aton when they were geting 40s, to 50s, in
New York, and they have taken freight as low as 5a.
aton from Beston, and even for nuthing, He adds
that inuch of the emall amount of freight obtained in
Boston was sent from New York, the lower charge in
Boston being the inducement,

A singular reason for refusing parish reliéf to a pov-

wives, wiio were all living; and three of them were

According to the last official statistics published, 148
persons were devoured by tigers in one year; and in
another the same fate befel 181 persons. The crocodiles
during the same period ate about 50 people a year, and
about 80 or 40 people a year are killed by serpents. The
inhabitants, however, do not seem to allow their ha-
bitnal equanimity to be mach disturbed by the fate of
their fellow-colonists. The Governor-General some time
since offered for every tiger that was killed the sam of

action.

ALL CURES MADE EASY

BY
HOLLOWAY’S OINTMENT

Bad Legs, Uleerous Sores, Bad Breasts

No description of wound, sore or ulcer can resist the heal
ing properties of this excellent Ointment. The worst case
readily assume a healthy appearance whenever this medical
agent is applied; sound flesh spripgs up from the bettem o
the wound, inflammation of the surrounding skin 1s ar_ested
and a complete and permanent cure quickly follow th’ euse
of the ointment.
Piles, Fistulas, and Internal Inflammation

These disressing and weakening diseases may with ce-

ed A cure may always beeffected, even under the werat
vireumstance, if the use of these medicines be persevered in

hruptions, Scald Head, Ringworm, and

other Skin Diseases,

After fomentation with warm water, the utmost relief and
speediest cure can be readily obtained in all complaints affec-
ting the skin and i y the simultaneous use of the Oint-
ment and Pills, But it must be remembered that nearly all
skin diseases indicate the depravity of the blood and derange-
ment of the liver and stomach consequently in many cases,
time is required to purify the blood, which will be effected by
a judicious use of Pills, The general health will readily
be improvea, although the eruption may be driven out more
freely than before, and which should be promoted; perseve-
rance is necessary.

On the appearance of any ot these maladies the Ointment
should be well rubbed at least three times a day upon the
neck and upper part of the chest, so as to penetrate to the
glands, as sult is forced into meat: this course will at once
remove intlammati vd ulcorati The wo.st cases will
yield to this treatment by following the printed directions.

Scrofula or King's Evil and Swelling of

the Glands.

This class of cases.may be cured by Helloway's purifying
Pills and Vintment, as their double action of purifying the
blood and strengthening the system renders them more aff-
able than any other remedy for ail complaints of a serofule
nature, As the blood is impure, liver, stomach and bowels
being much deranged, require purifying medicine to bring
about a cure,

Both the Ointment and Pills should be used in the foll rwin
