The Inventor of the Steam-Engine
"Lives at great men all remind as.
Warne, make our Wet sublime,
And departing laaverbehtnd us,
Foot-prints in the sand ettime."
Men differ froth one soother in greatness as
the stars do in glory. Some are brilliant as
the solar orbs and emit a spender of their own ;
others are like plannele, which exhibit a beau
tiful but borrowed light; while others, again,
twinkle only as feeble asteroids, and almost
defying the powers of the telescope to recog
nize. , Among the rwat shining lights that
have reflected 4; power of their own upon this
earth, James' Watt, the great inventor of the
steam engine, occupies the elevated position
n practical madonna which Si, lime New
ton does in natural iphilireophy. In the so
cornpllshatent of peat results affecting all
classes of society, is maiiiplying the pro-'
duotive powers of induatry and art, he 'stands
high above all other men, as Saul 'stood above
the tribes of Israel. This great inventor and
mechanician was born io January, 1736, in
Greenock, a seaport town in the west of
Scotland, and being of a delicste constitution,
he received most his youthful tuition from
Iris father sod mother at their fireside. An
early display of talents for mathematics and
mechanics was cultivated with assiduity, and,
when quite young, he constructed various
ingenious machines and instruments. ° Du
, ring a single year's instruction in the city of
London, as a philosophical instrument maker,
.he became na skillful a workman as several
journeymen in the same shop who had been
engaged at the business for ten years. After
that he came to the city of Glasgow, was for ,
nisbed with &shop within the College walls,
and received the title of mathematical instru %
mentmaker to the University. here histalents
were early appreciated by the professors and
students; especially by Dr. Black, the father
of modern chemistry. It was while repairing
a model of Newcommeu's atmospheric engine
(which was used in lecturing by one of the
professors) that he invented she "separate
condenser" to the engine, and thus changed
its whole character and quadrupled its pow
ers. Of all the inventions which the ingenui
ty 'of man has devised, it is the most wonder
ful. It greatly resembles the human body in
its mode of operation. The cylinder, like a
great heart, receives the steam .by throbbing
valves, and it becomes animate with power
and motion—forging a needle, spinning at
silken chord, weaving a carpet, knitting a
stocking, propelling the majestic. steamer
across the ocean, and the, rolling car' over
the iron bound course through forest; field and
prairie. So practical and symetrical was the
genius of Watt that he constructed the steam
engine and left it very nearly as perfect as
we have it, except in its aclapubility and ap
plication to railroads. It is not poaiihle fur
us to estimsto the value.ef benefits which his
inventions base conferreLepon mankind ; we
can do but little more in our brief space than
acknowledge their-importance.
The old atmospbetic engine, as Watt found
it was single acting. I* 111131 was admitted
under the piston into the cylinder, then out
off, and a jet of water then condensed it.
when the piston descended; then the water
was let out, steam again admitted, and so on
continuously, wasting, immense amount of
time and heat.
The manner in which his invention origin
ated was peculiar. The model of the atmos
pheric engine which be was employed to re
pair having greatly excited his mind, be ex
amined It thoroughly, and soon comprehend
ed its entire principle of action. lie became
sati-fled that it was radically defective in
some points; that it wasted an immense quan
tity or heat, and that it could not be made to
operate rapidly by any urengetneot what
ever, owing to the successive beating and
cooling operations in the cylinder at every
stroke. Occupied with snob thoughts he toot
a walk out into - the grotto fields, and during
his meditation, the, idea of condensing the
steam, in a separate mouton vessel flashed
&cruse his imagination like a gleam of light
ning. Almost as ecoli i this thought enter
ed his mind he mentally argued mechanical
devices to test it, and the next day at noon
be bad a rade model constructed, and proved
the value and correctness of his grand con
' ception. After securing a patent, he found
it very difficu lt to get a person of sufficient
wealth 'sod enterprise to engage in builcaug
large engines. This, lionrover he at last forte=
snatelfsecured in Mr. Belton, a wealthy Bir
mingham mnnufacturc4: The first engines
they built were for pumiiing the deep mines
of Cornwall, and they were sold under the
most 4asofable and hoiKrable conditions;
the tax asked for their wee being one-third
of the price of the fuel saved annually.
It affords us pleasure to state that the last
days of this great itiventorirere ape* in com
parative wealth and tranquility of mind,
Long after he had retired from business he
kept on inienting for his amusement; and he
used his tools, bench, workshop and leather
apron to the very last month of hiallife. At
80 years of age be invented a machine for
copying busts, and his brat production io this
line-be presented to frielid c retuarking, with his
usual quiet humor, "by a young engraver in
his eighty-second year" He was also the
inventor of• the ccipyieetrese,. an invention
now universally used. He could courruct a
telescope i .a parallel ruler, an organ; a violin,
a clock, a bridge, and a - steam engine with
equal facility. Hewes undoubtedly the great
est mechanic that ever lived, and his knowl
edge on all suijects wasMonderful. He could
speak and's-rite Frencb,Herman and Italian;
be understood music, Chemistry, snetomy,
geometry, in short, her wsa a prodigy; yet
be was a most modest. honest tad kindleart
ed m a n. He was offered a baronetcy by the
king, and be refused the - honor--it could not
add to his fame or character, He did more
for the world than all the generals and suttee
men that ever lived

The Curiosities of the Sunbeam.
Simple as a white ray of the sun's light
appears, it is found on close observation, to
be composed of at least three distinctive ele
ments, and to possess many wonderful and
curious properties. The three elements of
which we speak are light, beat, and ehemicel
force; and they may be separated from each
'other by means of a very simple instrument
Darken a rbom,and bore a small hole through
one of the window-shutters, so as to admit a
ray of light from the sun. Place a Weep
far prism of glass horizontally across the ray,
with one edge down, so that the, light may
pass through it. The ray will bead upward
and will strike the wall at a higher point than
it did fore the prism was interpsed. It
will not be , however, all be bent equall o y, so as
I to make the round spot it did before, but will
form an elongated image of seven brilliant
and most delicate colors, which shade into
1 1 each other and fade away indefinitely to the
,end of the image. The lowest of these coi
-1 ors, when the prism is placed as directed is,
always red, and the others in order es we
i ascend, are orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo
'and violet. Suspend a delicate thermometer
in each of the colored rays, audit will be
fonnd that the viulet riy imparts the least
heat, and the heat increases as we pass down
through the several colors. If we continue
our observations with the thermometer down
beyond the red ray, we find a point, where
no light falls, where the thermometer receives
more beat th an: it does anywhere within the
light. The rays of light are separated by the
prism from thoua of heat.
Another curious fact which has been ob
served also proves that the' . light and heat of
the sunbeam are distinct elements. If we sus.
peed a thermometer in the . eitinity of a close
stove, which emits beat but no light, the
heat radiating from the stove will raise the
mercury in the thermometer. But we inter
pose s plate of transparent glass, none of those
dark rays of beat pass through it; it is entire
ly opaque to them. If we now incr4se the
temperature of the stove until it beconies red
hot, the rayeof hest begin to-pass through
• the glass and affect the thermometer; and if
we raise the temperiture to a white heat,
the rays pass freely through the glass.l If,vre
vary the experiment, and use crystals of rock
salt, instead of glass, we find that tle dark
revs of beat pass out as freely tbrou,gh the
salt as do those which are accompanied with
I light.
Some of the alchemists di.covered, centu
ries ago, that the chloride of silver, which
' is as white as snow, turns black on exposure
Ito the light; and more recently it has been
found that a large number of bodies are thus
affected by the light. It is this power of
light which is used in the daguhrreotype and
photograph process. By more than one
means, the force • (titbit' element can be
measured in the several parts of the spectrum,
and it is forted to be most powerful in the
violet ray, and to extend entirely beyond the'
vi•Jlet light. It is not visible to- the eye;
It does not affect the thermometer; and it ,
is therefore neither light norliest. his easy.
after thus dividing the sonbeani, to re-com
bine its parts, when the white rai will pro
duce thO several effects of light, of heat, and
of chemical change, arbleti are produced sep
arately by its several elements.
Tracing a Pedigree.
Some, men are boalefol of their nticestors,
while others are imirely dersoid of ill pride of
birth, and haVe no more respect for the gen
ealogical table of their forefathers iban - tbey
have for Poor Richard's almanac. The late
Jobe Randolph of Roanoke used to assert
his belief twat lie was -descanted from the
celebrated Indian Prinee Pocahontas, but it
was not known that he ever established his
claim to that dioinction.
Many years ago there lived in a neighbor
ing State a young man who took it into his
bead that, like John Randolph be was of In.
dian descent, though, unlike John, her did• not
know exactly the to which tribe he bklonged.
The idea was a perfect • monomania with
him, notwithstanding the efforts made by bit
friends to convince him of-the folly of his
pretetraions, to say nothing of the absurdity
of tberm, even if they could be established.
The favoyiers notion, however, could not be
eradicated trim his mind, and he promised
his friends that be would one day convince
them, that be was right in his claim.
Having beard that a deputation of Indiana
were at Washington, on a visit to their great
Father, he promptly repaired to that city and
arranged with the gentleman having them in
charge, and his friends were suprised to re
ceive an invitation-to accompany him on a
visit to the Red Men, before whom he pro
posed to verify his pretension. -"Alm party
met as requested, and found the Indians sit
ting on the floor, smoking their pipes and
manifesting but little appreciation of the hon
or of tbe visit.
Raving arranged -his friends at a respect
ful distance from the aged chief, who still
regarded the visitor& with stolid indifference,
the young man stepped boldly-from the cen
tre; and presuming that it would require
some show of energy to arouse' the chiefs
from their apparent apathy, he placed his
hand on his breast, and said with great fear.
fulness—
" Me—lndian—Long time ago."
The chieforho was not skilled in-English,
took his .pipe from his month, buil evinced no
emotion whatever. The speaker then-think
ing that a more violent gesture and a louder
tans would be nansissry, struck his hand cip
oa his breast and exclaimed in a louder tone—
" Yes=me—todian—iong time ago."
Without moving Muscle of his face, the
old chief slowly rose from his sitting poetote
and turned his eagle eye on. the speaker. His
friends say that the ola chief evidently under
stood. or at least appeared to understand the
mesidog of the speech addressed to him, and
they gazed intently on the solemn protweding.

Indian without emotion, and tilt that the

An author tura been compared to asparagus,
on the-supposition that all that is good about
him is—bis bead: We mature to protest
against such a deffuition, on the plea that
much of its value is also awaited to.bis heart.
It is, indeed, the latter quality which gives to
the realm of authorship its highest dignity
and value.
Authors, again, have' been styled lamps,
eabsusting themselves to give light to others;
to bees, industriously colleutiog honey from
the flowers, which they treasure up in the
hives of books to sweeten and solace life.
Author-craft is an imitative se well creative
art; an original thinker is one who portrays
the work of the great Author of the universe
—the compiler, one who ingeniously adapts
or rearranges the thOught and illustrations
of others; both io Brett degree may ne.said
to exhibit creative power.
Who would not willingly make a pilgrim
age to catch a glimpse of an author in his
literary laboratory—his wotitsbnp For ex
ample, Richardson, in his back shop, writing
" Pamelia;" of Cowper and his tame hares;
of Byron and Newatead Abby; of Burns, in'
his bumble cottage Louie"; of Voltaire, fit his
retreat of Fercey by the shores of Lake Le
man; of Sir Walter Scott, in his study at
Abbottsford ; of Dr. Jottnien, in his re.reat
in Bolt Court; of Shaktepeare, and the woods
of Charlecote ; of Pope, and his house at
Twickenham ; of Swift, and his living et Le
rman. We are never tired of reading such
things, identified as they are with genius,
and consecrated by their association with the
names of great men.
Everybody remembers Goldsmith's bloom

Pope's little crooked figbre, likir a note of in

and all manner of. personal peculiarities of ,
distinguished men:

in bit morning gown and nightcap, and in
this guise promenaded the street; and public

taken for a mad man. While composing his
works, he used to walk about at a rapid pace,
making huge strides, and sometimes throw

in tears. "Good heavens I" he exclaimed,
"what is the matter!" "I am weeping,"
