The Hon. John Wentworth of Illinois . / himself an
emigrant to that State from New Hampshire, in a
lite speech thus hits off the emigrating spirit,' of
Americans: .
"He" had a friend in Ohio, as long ago as it was
•
on the frontier. He had been moving and moving
away from the inroads of society, until he had
*retied the banks of the Mississippi, and was . about
to move again. He 'asked him his redson: He
said it was the aping 'advice of his father,•to keep
twenty: miles beyond law and calomel, and'a doc

thought it time to go."!

French engineer, M Leonard, now in London, bag
discovered an exceedingly simple means of cur
tailing the quantity of coal hitherto reqUired in
the generation of steam.' Ms principle, for which'
he has taken out a patent, is that of putting ,whale
or other fish oil into the heifer unmixed, or :with
more or leas water. When the oil is at'a temper
sture producing , steatip, water is thrown in and
steam is produced, as fast as required by ,the
ma-
Chine; without the oil passing-4)ff in vapor, or de
composing. -Various experiments have been made
and the saving in fuel' is stated at from forty to
fifty per cent.
