ANTICIPATED INVENTIONS.
(Frcra All the Year Roland.]
Scarcely any important invention starts
once into being; usually, it has hid along
riod of preparation, by men who reaped no
profit from their labors. The world considers the`
inventor to be the person whO gives the capital
touch which imparts practical vglite to an nriginal'
idea, whether or not he reap any por
tion of that value, and whether or • not he be
-really more clever than the preliminary invent
ors who cleared the path for him. Dr. John
son, looking out of his window in Bolt court,
one evening, saw a lamplighter much troubled
to light a lamp; he did not Succeed until there
was a good deal of black vapor over the wick ;
whereupon the great lexicographer said, " !
One of these days we shall see the streets of
London lighted by smoke." Was not the real
idea of gas-lighting in Johnson's mind at that
moment? And yet we do not call him an
inventor. Long before. Johnson's time, Dr.
Clayton, about 1660, distilled coal in a retort,
producing what he called "phlegm, black oil
and spirit ;" this spirit was gas, Which he con
fined in a bladder because he could not con
dense it into a liquid. He was wont to amuse
his friends with burning this gas as it issued
from the bladder through holes pricked with a
pin. This was a century and a half before the
streets were lighted by gas.
The Marquis of Worcester's Century of In
ventions is a well-known repertorylof new and
strange curiosities. He wrote this book in the
time of-Charles the Second; and., adopted, the
name.P.century " because there - are a hundred
projects described. Or, rather, the projects are
asserted,for none of them are so clearly detailed
as to enable an artisan to work from them.
The range_of subjects is something amazing.
Ships to resist any explosive projectiles, and
boats to work against wind and tide, might be
taken 'to Prefigure our : and steam
boats. Large cannon to be shot six times in a
minute, and a pistol - to discharge a dozen times
with once loading, certainly seem very much
indeed like revolvers. A brass-mould to cast
candles is a verbally exact description of the
means nowused in making mould-eandles,with
the simple substitution of pewter for brass. A
machine fdr - dretiging - harborsTand --- a — machine
for raising r ships for repair, are assuredly
among the ways and means of modern hy- •
draulic engineering ::: Ail apparatus for lighting:

in the metropolis,at one of the Workingmen's
Exhibitions; whther the ingenious fellow
who made it had read the Marquis of Worces
ter, we do not know. A calculating machine
for performing addition and subtraction was
made a hundred and fifty years after the Mar
quis had talked about it in his book. A key - -

an endless watch to go without winding up ;
,theseTareT: among - the - various - novelties men
tioned. It is difficult to decide how far the Mamas

eitlier in his own mind or paper; that he
did not always advaUce so far as working
models may be safely supposed. Nevertheles,,
be is believed to have made a model of- Some
., thing which we in our days would call a steam
engine ; and he is known to have had a German
artisan, Casper Kaitoll; in his employ as model
maker and machinist. The visitor at Raglan
Castle, in Monmouthshire, is told of au inge
nious mechanical contrivance_ with which the
Marquis (who was lord of the castle in 'the
times of the Civil War) contrived to baffle the
Roundheads and befriend the Royalists on a
critical occasion.
The beautiful art of photography is-not so
modern,-in its leading principles, as most of us
are in the habit of supposing. It was known
nearly a hulidreity - eall - ago thattertaitrehtmri ,,-
cal substances are blackened, or at least dark
ened, by exposure to light: Seheele discovered
this fact in relation to chloride of silver, and
Ritter to, nitrate of silver. Sir Humphrey
Davy, Dr. Wollaston and Mr. Wedgwood ac
tually obtained photographs in 1802, by taking
advantage of this scientific discovery. A Cain
em obscura was provided, through the lens of
which the sun's light was admitted ; the light
was focalized on a small sheet of glass pinned
with a colored device or picture: and then it
fell on a sheet of paper rendered sensitive by
nitrate of silver. It was found that, accort ling
to the depth of color through which the light
passed„so did the paper become more or less
darkened ; reproducing the picture not itecolors,
but with due gradations of light anti shade.
In this way photographs (as we should now
call them) were produced of patterns, figures,
woody fibres of plants, wings of insects and
delicate designs of lace. But the affair died
out, and was not revivified for a long series of
veers, owing to this fact—that no fixing pro
cess had then been discovered. The photo
graphs darkened and darkened day by day,
until no picture of any kind was left. Those
clever men did three-fourths of the work nearly
seventy years ago ; but they failed to hit tlm
remaining fourth : therefore they are not how:
ored as the discoverers of photography.
Not the least noteworthy of these instances
is that which relates to the electric telegraph.
The Jesuit Strada, in 1617, speculated on the
possibility that there might, some day,be found
a species of loadstone or magnet possessing
much more wonderful properties than those
long known. lie supposed it to have such virtues
that if two needles be touched with it, and
then balanced on separate pivots, and the one
be turned in a particular direction, the other
will move sympathetically with it." lf, then,-
two persons were possessed of two such mag
netic needles, and settled upon a pre-arranged
code, they might talk at any distance. Ile
merely imagined such a stone, but did not ven
ture to predict that it would ever be found.
The same idea Was developed somewhat more
fully by Henry Van Etten, in 1660, very likely
after reading Strada : " Sonic say that by means
of a magnet, or such like stone,persons who are
distant from each other may converse together.
For example, Claude being at Paris, and John
at Rome, if each had a needle touched by a
stone of such virtue that as one moved itself'
at Paris, the other should be Moved at -Rome ;
then let Claude and John have a similar alpha
bet, and agree to speak every day at six o'clock
in the evening. Let the needle make three turns
and a half to signal that it is Claude, and no
other, who wishes to speak with John. Claude
wants to signify, Le roi est is Paris,' and
makes his needle stop at L, then at e, then at r,
o, i, and soot the rest. Now, at the same
time, the needle of John, agreeing with that of
Claude, will go on moving, and stop at the
same letters; so that he can easily understand
or notice what the other would signify to
bim." Van Etten gave a diagram, showing the
dial, needle, pivot, alphabet, &c., for working
out the idea. He-was very candid and honest,
hoWever; for he, added : "It is a fine inven
tion; but I do not think there is a magnet in
the world which has such virtue." And he
implied 'a danger : "Besides, it is inexpedient,
- •for treasons would he too frequent, and too
much protected." A pleasant paper iu the
'Spectator gave a new-turn to this Idea, point
ing out bow two lovers could carry on a senti

Thoie-, who have ,witnessed the action pfi
Wheatstone's a dial telegraph will' perceive action._
closely this odd conceit of the writers of, former •
days ,approximates to the' actual results of
scientific invention • for there are not only the
letters of the alphabet around the dial, but
there are also single signs to denote complete
words. The cardinal point of difference is
this : that the predictors imagine some kind of
occult mystical connexion between the two
dials ; whereas, in the practical telegraph,
there is a copper wire, with or without an en
veloping cable, extending from oue to the
other, be the distance ten 'yards •or ten thou
si-ind miles.' It was in 1745, so far as is.
known, that a Wire was first made to convey
an electric impulse to a considerable distance ;
Dr. WAttson stretched a wire • across the
'Thames near WeStminster bridge, and sent an
impulse through it from one observer to an
other; it was, however, merely a shock : not a
signal to be interrupted or discriminated. The
first talking through a wire appears to have
been effected in 1787; when M. Lamond, a
French electrician, arranged two electrical
machines in two rooms of his home, with a
wire connecting them,- He agreed with
Madame Lamond that the peculiar movements
of two little pith balls; excited by au electric
current, should denote certain letters.or words ;
and thus a kind of conversation was carried
on by working the two electrical machines in
turn.
Those who are old enough to remember the
Great Exhibition of .1651, held in the Crystal
Palace, in Hyde Park, may possibly call to
mind the attention which was bestowed at
that time on some stanzas-by Chaucer, pointed
.out by one of his admirers as a prediction of
'that grand display. Striking it certainly is, in
many respects. The House of Fame, consist
ing of some tWo hundred lines, is a fanciful
description of a mighty assemblage held in a
palace of glass; and considering that Geoffrey
Chaucer wrote it four hundred and seventy
years before tho- Great Exhibition. was.•held,
there was quite temptation enough to quote it.
The poet, a dream, fancied he was
Within a temple y-made of glas!
The present' (gee% Victoria; as we iznowi sat
orca raised 'dais on the opening• day -- (Ist '- of
May) of the Exhibition. Look at Chaucer's
words :
In this lusty and rich place,
All on high above a dais,
Satte in a See imperiall,
That made was of ruby royal]
A feminine creature
That never form'd by Nature
Was soche another one 1 safe
Of course Her Majesty would not have accepted
Battery finite so strong as this ; but we-may
pardon it in the poet. On.the Exhibition day
some grand choral and instrumental music
was performed ; this . was excellently prefigured
by the poet :
And the heavenly melodic
Of songes full of armonie
I heard about her throne of song, .
That allthe palace - 1, I - prong:
Then the nave of the palace, full of the gay
trappings and the notable personages which
marked the opening day :
_Then saw. I stoade nn thother side,
Streight downe to the doores wide,
From the dais, many a piliere
Of metal! that shone out ful clere ;
But though they were of no rirhesse,
Yet were they made for great noblesse.
If we want a prediction of all nations coming
to the palace of glass, the following.. looks very
much like it :
Then gane I loke about and see
That there came ent'ring into the hall
A right good company withal!,
And that of sondry regions,
Of all kind of conditions
That dwelle on yearth under the Moone,
Poor and riche.
And when we i ii jher that the exhibitors at
that grand display competed for such fame and
honor as prize medals, honorable mention, and
the admiration shared by millions of visiors,
iL only requires a little stretch of the imagin
ation to fancy them addressing the Queen
in the following words:
" Madame," said they, " wee bee
Folke that here beseeches thee
That thou graunt us now good fame,
Arid let our workes have good name ;
In full recompensacioun
Of good workes, give us good renoune."
The language here is a little modernized from
Chaucer, but the quaintness of style is pre
served. These passages certainly go far
towards justifing the pleasant popular idea
that Chaucer pm-invented the Crystal Palace
and the Great Exhibition of 1S:51.
Defoe threw oil many thoughts which read
very much like anticipations of the - London
University, the Foundling Hospital, the Royal
Academy of Music and the Metropolitan
Police. But these are not so much inventions
as establishments. In the same light perhaps
may be regarded John Hill's scheme for a
Penny Pest, broached 'in 1659. Jasper, a
Westphalian peasant, may be said to have pre
dicted or imagined railways and locomotives,
at a date when he certainly never saw such
things in Gerinany ; and when we were only
just beginning to think about them in England.
In 1E36 he wrote : " A great road will be car
ried through our country 'from east to west,
which will pass through the , forest of Bodel
schwing. On this road carriages will run with
out horses, and cause a dreadful noise." There
was 'Van Etten, already mentioned, who pig;
forth schemes having a remarkable resem
blance to real inventions of later date: such
as the air-gun, the steam-gun, the hydraulic
press,: and raised letters for the use of the
blind. The differential thermo Meter, quite a
modern invention ras to Actual construction,
was very correctly pre figured by the Jesuit
Lana in 1673. Daniel Schwenten, who wrote
a thick quarto volume of descriptions in 1636,
may assuredly be credited with a kind of pre
invention of the centrifugal pump, the diving
bell and the diving-dress. Defoe's Captain
Singleton, in his imaginary journey in Africa,
sketches a central lake which bears a strong
resemblance to one of those which Grant,
Spoke, Baker, Burton and Livingstone have
been exploring during the last few years. But
this, if worth noting at all, was a pre-discovery,
not a pre-invention..; and it is• surmised that
some Jesuit had previously marked down some
such hike on a snap,
either as a mental creation
or as the result of investigation.
The story of the steamboat is so well known
that we need do little more than advert to it.
There were several suggestions between 1476
and 1618, for moving boats on rivers by means
of paddles or wheels; and some of them were
acted upon; but the revolution was brought
about by mechanical means, not by steam
power. Papist, the French inventor, certainly
had the true idea in his mind, in 1690, when
he said: " Without doubt paddles fixed to an
axis could be most Conveniently made to re
volve-by air cylinders.---It would 'only- .be-rie
cessary to furnish the piston-rod with teeth,
which might act as a toothed wheel, properly
fixed to it, and which, being fitted at the axis
to which the paddles were attached, would
communicate a rotary motion to it." Jonatiran
Hulls actually did make a small steamboat in
1130, or at least a model of one; it failed, hut

The civility and the poetry of this production
are about upon a par.
There waka bit of jocularity in one of the
Magazines, about half a century • ago, which
told of wonderful inventions likely to be pub
hslied in the papers of (sayythe - year 4797.
The- new S-writers are _supposed to have to
speak of a War between the Northern and
Southern States of America, in which the
former invaded the latter with an army of one
million four hundred and ninety thousand
men. The reality, eight years ago, approached
nearer to the actual wording the extrava
gant idea than the joker could have possibly
supposed. But-he goes on to quote, from the
supposed newspaper of 4707,the'following para
graph: "General Congrevc's new mechanical
cannon was fired last week at the seige of
Georgia. It discharged; in an hour eleven him
died and forty balls, each weighing five hun
dred pounds. The distance of the objects
tired at e was eleven miles; and so perfect was
the engine that the whole of these balls ivere
lodged in the space of twentylsquare feet."
Of course, in the year 1821 it was mere reck
less fun to talk of such
metals, repetitive or revolving - actione - range,
and accuracy ; but our Armstrongs, Whit
worths and Pallisers could tell us- how steadily
and wonderfully we are advancing towards re
sults which are at least analogous if not ex
actly siMilar. Again: "Dr. Clark crossedthe
Atlantic ha - sever days." A fiction. - But how
near our Cunard steamers constantly bring it
to a reality !
Visit of an Ea-Confederate Regiment to
-Cape ..illay—An Incident ;of the; Rebel
lion Connected with it, and a Sanwa
tion. •
To the Editor of the .;.V. Y. Herald: On
the night of the 21st of this month the Fifth
Maryland regiment, General Herbert, will leave
Baltimore on a visit to Cape May, by way of
Philadelphia. On their arrivalin the latter
city they will be Met at the depot by the Eighth
Pennsylvania --- revri„, ment;—Colonel-Grayi---autlT
after partaking of breakfast and marching
through the principal streets,. they will em
bark: for Gape-May, by Way of the ;.Pelaware. :
The visit'of the Fifth-regiment goei further to '
show how thoroughly. we are recon
structed than anything that has taken
place since the cessation of actual hostilities
between the armies of the North and South.
The regiment was the pride of Stone Wall Jack
son'S army corps; it was the advance of John
son's corps, under General Elsey, in his march
from thii Valley of Virginia to reinforce Beau
regard at the first battle of Manassas. And
here happened a little incident which is worthy
of mention. GeneralHerberti-then Major,
commanding the Fifth, came across on that
memorable day a wounded officer of a
New York regiment, lying exposed to. the heat
of a midsummer sun,.badly wounded. . After
giving the wounded oficer water and moving
him to a shady place the officer handed to
Maki'. Herbert the likenesses of his little cbil 7
drefrand wifertogettfer - with'some — gold - that'
he had about him, with the request if it
were • possible for Major Herbert to ever
find his wife r to have the goodness to deliver
these tokens to her, with his last words on
earth, which the Major promised to do. A.t was
two years after this that the battle of Gettys
burg, Fa., took place,-and among the wounded
that fell into our hands was Major Herbert.
He was taken to the hospital from the field and
received every attention from the volunteer
nurses who were ever present in hehalf of suf
fering humanity ; and this being the first time
since the incident at Manassas in his power to
find the wife and little ones of the 4.lad officer,
the Major lost no time in inquire. O'or her,
and found out that the wife of the officer was
one of the-volunteer nurses then in one of- the
hospitals of Gettysburg. The money and tokens
Were at once -restored to this almost broken
-hearted:lady, who - had been widowed by chill
war, and Herbert was relieved of his trust,
' which for two long years had never left his
person.
The .litsuttertiders' Case—Mr. Fiske's
Efforts to Procure Bail.
(Frurn the London Pail) , NOV'S, J Lute 29.1
Mr. \laddick, the solicitor to Fk,ke, who
stands committed for trial at the Central
Court, for being concerned with Bealton,
Park and others, in dressing in female attire,
appeared at Guitiehall, yesterday, before Sir
Thomas Gab; iel, to Nit in bail for the ap
pearance of the prisoner Fiske, in pursu
ance of an order of Mr. Justice Lyles, di
iecting that he might be admitted to bail
in two sureties of 1::,00 and himself in £l,OOO.
The first surety justified; but the second, al
though competent as far as means were
concerned, had never seen the prisoner. He
stated that he knew Mr. Fiske, Sr., and the
family very well; but he bad never seen the
prisoner. Sir Thomas Gabriel asked at whose
solicitation he became hail for Fiske The
bail said that Mr. Darling bad directly asked
him, and Mr. Nunns, of the American Con
sulate, had asked him indirectly. Sir Thomas
Gabriel said he had no objection to accept the
bail it' Mr. Pollard (who appeared on behalf of
the Treasury) would take the responsibility on
himself. Mr. Pollard said he had no desire to
throw any. difficulty in the way of accepting
the nail of a man who had never
seen the prisoner. Sir Thomas Ga
briel said that was
,just the dilli

culty he felt, for how was it possible hn could
surrender the prisoner if he did not know
suppailig he did not surrender voluntarily.
Mr. Pollard said that was the point to be got
over. As far as he was concerned, he would
not object, but:he could net take' upon hiMself
the responsibility of accepting the bail. Sii•
Thomas Gabriel said neither could he. Mr.
Maddick said lie — saw the difficulty they were
in, but, it' the point was not conceded, Fiske
would have re lie in prison until the trial. He
was here among, strangers, where he knew
nobody in a position sufficiently responsible
to be security for £5OO, and where he did
know them they were out of the juris
diction of the Court. Besides, his worship
must be aware how very reluctant many per
sons were to have their names mixed up with
a case like this. Sir Thomas Gabriel said be
could perfectly understand why very few peo
ple would consent to have their names con
nected with a case like the present. Mr. Mad
dick said that it was only because the second
bail had known the father and family of the
prisoner that he bad consented to become
bound for him, and if he were not accepted,
there would be no alternative for Fiske but 'to
remain imprison. Sir Thomas Gabriel, after a
long discussion, declined to accept the second
Berson offered as bail, and the application stood
over until another could be procured.

THE SPANISH QUESTION
Active Preparatious for War
PA ms, July 12, Midnight.—The Eum)eror
:Napoleon, after a lengthy conference with his
ministry on the action of the King of Prussia,
has decided to refuse to accept the withdrawal
of Leopold from the candidature of the throne
of Spain, unless it is '' , nntranteed by the King
both as the bead of a State as well as of the
family of Hohenzollern.
PARIS, July, 12.—The Emperor Napoleon
arrived at the Tuileries to-day, and presided
over the council of ministers. Important reso
lutions, it is expected, will be communicated to
the Chambers this afternoon. Great anxiety
is manifested to ascertain their action.
The Parisian journals have reports. of im
mense movements of troops in Germany, and
represent that the roads to the frontier are en
cumbered with men and horses.
Even in the Grand Duchy of Baden, the
militaiy activity is remarkable. Railway trans
portation has been so arranged that 35,000 in
fantry and 5,000 cavalry can reach the frontier
in one day. Secret exercises of artillery have
been going on in the fortress of Rastadt and on
the common roads. Western Prussia,
sergeants of the, regular Prussian army are
drilling young soldiers in the handliiig of arms.
The Lawrie alluding to the report that a
special envoy had been sent to Russia, says it
is incorrect; ; but a messenger has gone to
,Vienna to propose an offensive and defensive
alliance. between France and Austria. The
answer of Austria is not yet known.
Minister 011ivier left the hall of the Corps
Legislatit at 3 P. M., and had a conference
with the Duke de Gramont and the Prussian
Ambassador, and returned. It was expected
that the Government would make another
declaration in the Chainber teklay,
Ambassadors were invited to attend, but none
was made after !the return of 011ivier.
Deputy Duvernotts submitted an interriel:
lotion to the Government as to what guaran
antees could no* be demanded to prevent fa
ture complications, to which an answer will be
returned at the proper time,
Military, activity is. unabated, and the fleet is
under orders for the Baltic. H . will be com
mandedl)y.. Admiral .de, la Gaviere. Gen.
Douay is ready to march on Luxembourg
with an army of 00,000.
Loa DON, July 12,91'. M.—A private message
was received at eight o'clock to-night from
Paris, stating that Prussia's...l : Mal reply was
friendly.

"Man, being reasonable ,' must get - drunk r
Many people 'ticak-f that as an axiom who
never heard the
. name of the poet who
wrote it. On that head; says All the Year
hound, the mos .:.t . foriorn and stupid
of savages are at one with civilized, folks ; and
some extremely curious, let alone 'nasty, con
coctions does human ingenuity hit upbn in its
desperate desire to prOduce a beverage that will
cheer and inebriate.. The cocoanut tree is a
great boon to thirsty man, givino-. the weary
traveler a draught of pure water, rewarding
the 'early riser with a cup of sparkling toddy,
and delighted lovers of strong potations with
its potent arrack. The first .beverage is con
tabled in the fruit ; the less Innocent ones are
Made 'from the sap of the tree. The operations of
the Cingalese toddy-draWer are simple enough.
He binds all the shoots bearing, embryo nuts
firmly together, cuts off the ends, and attaches
beneath them an-earthenware vessel bolding
about a gallon, and - so leaves matters for four
and-twenty hours=from sunrise to sunrise.
.IWlien 'the _tame =is up the chattf - ii: lowered,
emptied of its contents, and replaced ; .and so
the process goes on, until the flow of sap is ex
hausted.. The liquor thus obtained looks like
milk and water, and tastes like
soda water and milk slightly flavored with
cocoa nut. •Tn a few hours rapid acetous fer
mentation takes place, and by midday the sap
becomes toddy,resembling a poor acid cider,and
from this arrack is made by distillation. The
same source supplies the subjects of the Rajah
of Sarawak with their national beverage, which
is, kept in huge jars, and hoSpitably handed to
all corners in tans, bottles,
or cocoa-nut shells,
whichever
~ happen. to. be handiest. Mr.
Boyle says it looks - like thin milk, - and smells
like five hundred negroes drunk in a slave-pen,
while its flavor seems to be as unique as its
"When first taken into the mouth it sug
gests an idea Of coma-nut iriilk gone very
and-holffing-in—solution 7 a—very—c:onsiderable
quantity of brown sugar and old cheese ; when
it reaches the throat the agonized novice be
,comes aware of a hot and.peppery flavor,.caus,
ins him to-believe - that starch mingled with the
fhiest cayenne must have a great share in the
composition ; and, finally, should it safely reach
ha destination, and the sufferer be compelled
to put his head precipitately through the rail
ings behind, he conceives with astonishing
suddenness that he• is waiting for the crisis in
a rolling vessel at the change of the mon
soons."
When,the Marquesans are in the humor for
a drinking-bout, a number of boys are set to
viork preparing • aroo,-by squatting around a
large bowl, and masticating cocoa -nuts, which
they spit into the bowl when sufficiently
chewed. Enough being prepared, the vessel is
filled up with fresh water, amLstirred, and the
pleasapt.neis left to settle, when the flowing
bowl is passed about for the merrymakers to
tirairt.to the lees.

it , now being manufactured and sold in large numbers,

the Warerooms of the undersigned. This piece of INr
niture is in the form of a handsome PARLOR SOFA,
vet in one minute it can be extended into a beautiful
FRENCH BEDSTEAD. With springs, hair mattresses
complete. It has every—convenience for holding the
bed clothes, is easily managed, and it is Impossible for it
to get out of order. The use of props or hinged feet to
•upport the mattress when extended, or -ropes to regu
late it, are entirely done away with, as they. are all very
onsafe and liable to get out of repair. The BEDSTEAD
is formed by simply turning out the ends, or closing
F
them when the SO

convenience and appearance, far superior to and cost no
more than a good Lounge.
An examination is solicited.
