■) i PAST BTOBY. / A# Englishman was bragging of the speed on EbgUsu Koilroajls, to a Yankee traveller ! seatm at his side, in one of the cars of a “fast train” in England,', The engine bell was rung u the train neared a station. It suggested to the Yankee an opportunity of “ taking down his companion a'peg or two.” “What’s that noise?”innocently inquired top Yankee. ■ “Wo are approaching a town,” said the Englishman; “they have to commence ringing about ten miles before they get to a station, or else the train would run by it before the bell could bo heard! Wonderful, isn’t it 1 I sup pose they havn’t invented bells in America yet?” “Why yes,” replied the Yankee, “we’ve got bells, but can’t use them on our railroads. Wc run so tarnal fast that the train always keeps ahead of the sound; no use, whatever-; the sound never reaches the village till after the train gets by.” . “Indeed !’* cxclaimecUtho Englishman. “Fact,” said the Yankee, “had to give up bells. Then wo tried steam whistles —but they wouldn't answer, cither. I was on a locomo tive when the whistle was tried. We were going at a tremendous rate—hutricanes were nownar, and I had to hold my hair on. We saw a two-horse wagon crossing the track, about five miles ahead, and ths engineer let the whistle on, screeching like a trooper. It screamed awfully, but it wasn’t no use. The next thing I knew, 1 was picking myself out of a pond by the roadside, amid the fragments of the locomotive, dead .horses, broken wagon, and dead engineer lying beside me. Just then Che whistle came along, mixed up with some frightful oaths that I had heard the engineer use when ho first saw the horses. Poor fellow! he was dead before his voice got to him. After that wo tried lights, supposing these would tra vel faster than sound.. We got some so power ful that the chickens woke up all along the road when we came by, supposing it to be morning. But the locomotive kept ahead of it still, and was in the darkness, with the light close on behind it. The inhabitants petitioned ogalnstit! they couldn’t sleep with so much light in the night-time. Finally, wo had to station electric telegraphs along the road, with signal men to telegraph when the train was in sight; and I have heard that some of the fast trains beat the lightning -fifteen minutes every forty miles. But I can’t say as that is true— the rest I /biota to be.so.”—Jv. Y . Mercury. The GUild and Its Echo. Little Charles knew nothing of an echo.— Once as ho was playing by himself in a field, hccricdout, “Ho! hop!” and immediately a voice from a little wood close by repeated, “ Ho! hop!” Being surprised at this, he called out, “Who are yon?” The same voice replied. “Who are you?” On this he cried out, “You’re a stupid fellow!” and “Stupid fellow!” was of course the answer. At this Charles being much displeased, be gan to call all the abusive names he could think of, and these same expressions all seemed to come back to him. “ I never met with such insolence,” he muttered; “but I’ll revenge my self and he ran up and down among the trees trying to find out the supposed offender, but he could see nobody. Vexed and disappointed, he hastened home, and told his mother that a bad boy had hidden himself in the wood, and called him all sorts of names. His mother smiled and shook her head. “Now you have betrayed and complained of yourself, Charles: for you must know you heard nothing but your own words repeated. As you have often seen your face reflected in the water, so have you now heard your own voice echoed. Had you called kind words, kind words would have been returned to you ; and'l may also observe, it is generally the case that the behaviour we meet with from others is but an echo of our own. If wo arc friendly in pur manner, people ore disposed to be kind to US; bßfcif we are rude and uncivil, wo cannot expect better treatment ourselves. Meates 0/ fiouia, PiujcVs Russian correspondent draws upon bis fertile Imagination for the description of a new species ot infernal machine which, he says, U •constructed by order of Nicholas lor the de struction of the allied fleets. lie says the Czar has built an enormous galvanic battery, consist ing of several thousand pairs of plates, each 40 | feet square, the whole contained in a huge por-1 celaio trough. The colls of the trough are tilled I with nitric acid from an immense reservoir hold- I ■ Ing hundreds of hogsheads of that corrossive [ ''fluid. "With one end of the battery a wire, about j the thickness of a man’s leg, is connected, on j the end of which, at the edge of the bank of the ; rlvor Neva, is fixed a long tapering mass of \ characoal, several tons in weight. The other | end of the battery Is connected with another wire of similar size, which is carried across the river, and being brought opposite the end of the first, is in like manner pointed with characoal. The moment those wires are brought in connec tion with the battery, a circuit of tbo fluid is formed, and an arc of light, of surprising bril liancy, and glowing with an almost inconceivable intensity of heat, plays between the two points of the characoal. When it is considered that in tho electric fire ttms produced by moans of an ordinary battery, platinum melts like wax In the flame of a candle, it is easy to conceive what would bo tho fate of any vessel, on getting be tween tbo characoal points tho instant the gal vanlb fluid was turned on. A man-of-war hav ing a powder magazine, would of course instant ly detonate and disappear. Punch further says that a plan has been submitted to tho Emperor for destroying the British public by poisoning the east It was urged, however, as an objection, that Denmark and Swoedon would bo damaged; but if these states form an alliance with the Western powers, this difficulty would vanish { and tho objection that If tho wind should change, tho Injury migßjjjfall on thOr.

At one of tho houses in this city lives one who has “ been over” but a few weeks.— Lively as a cricket, industrious as a bee, and honest and willing to do, she of course is well liked by those with whom eho has taken up her abode. A few days ago, one of tho men, who is something of a practical joker, happened to kill a largo rat. Ho handed it to Nelly, and told her ho wanted it cooked for his dinner. Nelly, with a curtsey took tho animal and proceeded to tho kitchen. A short time after the lady of the house had occasion to go to tho kitchen, where she found Nelly trying to pull tho fur from tho rat, which eho was occasionally dip ping into a kettle of scalding water. ‘‘Why Ndly f what are you about ?” asked tho astonished lady. “Sure an’ its thrying to pluck tho feathers off this thing I amsaid eho, “for Mr. towld mo to cook it for dinner.” /The lady soon put a stop to tho performance, and told Nelly with all tpo gravity she could commaiid, that tho men had been playing a joke upon her. “Troth an* a joke it is, sure enough,” said she, “for I never seen filch feathers to stick in in nil mo life I” _____ Tub Fhencix Empress—Axl Right !■—A Par is correspondent oi the Cincinnati Mid* states that It has lately boon observed that the Em press Eugene, while riding out with Jho Emper or. takes hor seat at the right Instead of the loft Oi nU Majesty in tho carriage.

Martin Tan Bmen and Prince Talleyrand. We hardly know of any exhibition—Herr Alexander’s not excepted—calculated to create in a spectator greater curiosity and, astonish ment that that of an interview between Talley rand and Van Buren, in which each was trying to pump the other. Van Buren himself, wo, behevo, has given an account of his last inter view with Talleyrand, when ho (Van Buren) was minister to the court of London; on which occasion, (in common with most others when they met, wc presume) the curiosity and inte resting operation, spoken of above, was mutu ally sought to bo performed. The dav Van Buren was to leave England for the United States, Talleyrand, happening at the time to be in London, called upon him, and seemed to have something important to communicate. Van Buren did not (we do not say could not) speak French, and there was no interpreter at hand? Time was precious, and what was to bo done ? lu previous interviews they had always com municated with each other through the medium of an interpreter. Van Buren makes a motion politely expressive of his regret at the awkward ness of the interview, and also of the necessity of his going. After nn impatient gesture or two, Talleyrand breaks out in very good Eng lish, with “Well, well, if there is no interpreter, i trdk^° SC * English, if you wlll^t Wc don’t profess to be* very well informed as to President Van Burcn's knowledge of lan guages, but we would just suggest that if any man happened to be in'his company, and desir ed to communicate something to another that he didn’t wish Mr. Van Buren to understand, he should use some other language than the French.— Putnam's Magazine. A Good Anecdote. —Mr. Rives, editor of the Daily Globe, AVashingtou, in reply to acor respondent, tells the following story : “We arc admonished not to be prolix in an swering our correspondent, from the fact that this day one week, wo published in the Globe an answer of eight columns, which was not at all an answer, to an attack'mado on our ‘home stead’ before the Senate, which answer was not generally read, because it woe too long. Wc engaged a Senator, who is a lawyer, to read it, without thinking of his profession. Last Fri day he called at Jackson Hall, in our absence, to see us, and left word that he would call next day. Thinking that ho had read *our poor re marks,’ os modest men generally characterize their speeches, and that they had convinced him of the justice of our cause, we took care to be at homo on Saturday. At one o’clock, P. M., of that day he called and said, ‘I have read the remarks in your case which you handed me, clean through; but have been unable to com prehend them. I charge you lifty dollars for my services, which is the lowest rate I have ever charged for reading so much matter, and advise you to employ assistant counsel, who understands ems and erts, to aid mo in the case. ’ Wc asked him if he would not make some abatement if we would read an equal qauntity of his prosy speeches, and be replied in sub stance that he could hot, as that would do him no good, os they were not made to convince anybody here, but for the‘purpose of keeping himself before the people of Mississippi.” Lindlbt Murray. —lt is not generally known, says the Lebanon Advertiser, that Lindley Murray was an American, and born within the present limits of Lebanon county. He was born in the year 1745, on the Swatara, in East Hanover township, then Lancaster, now Lebanon county. Ilia father was a miller, and followed that occupation when Lindley was born, but afterwards devoted his attention to mercantile pursuits, and amassed a considera ble fortune by trading to the West Indies.— Lindley was the eldest of twelve children, and when about seven years of age, was sent to Philadelphia, that he might have the benefit of a better education than could be had at Swata ra. He studied law in Now York, and at the age of twenty-two was called to the bar, where he gained for himself the reputation of an , “honest lawyer.” His “Grammar of the English Language” was composed in England, in 1794, and published in the Spring of 1795, many millions of copies of which havo been sold. He resided in England forty-two years, most of which time he was an invalid. He com posed many works besides his Grammar. He died in 1820, in a village in Yorkshire, being upwards of eighty years of age. Ho is repre sented as a Christian and philanthropist. He ' left legacies to a number of relatives and friends, ! and sums of money to many religious socie | ties. He also directed that the residue of his | property, after the decease of his wife, (a New [York lady, his beloved and aflectionateHannah, who had been his companion for more thari [sixty years,) should be devoted to Com.

Thus, day after day. and month after month tran spire. Her health daily sinks, till finally oven the .ope of recovery no longer remains.
