that no: could not .put right, to. send word 'to
the chief engineer, decree’ Stephenson foil
in love with his engine, and was never tired of
watching it.-In-leisure hours, wheuhls com
panions went to their sports,-he took his ma
chine to pieces,- cleaned every part of it, and
put at together again; i Thus,.he not only kept
it in admirable working order, hut beijame inti
mately acquainted with all its parts, and knew
their,uso. -. He acquired credit for devotion to
his work, and really was devoted to it j at the
same time he acquired a kind of knowledge
that, wonld.help him to. get an Inch higher In
the world. - . ~ Ji
But'there was another kind of knowledge
necessary . Atthe age of eighteen he could
not.read; be could, not write his name. His
thther had been too poor to afford any school
ing to .the children*; He was then getting his
uiend Coe to teach bim-tho mystery of brake-
Ing,' that he might, when opportunity occur
red,- advance to the post -of brakesman— -next
above that-which he h01d,,-He became curious
also to know definitely something about the
fgmous engines; that.were' in those days plan
ned by Watt and Bolton. • The desire for know
ledge taught him the necessity of learning to
roadbooks.. ■ r-
The brave young man-resolved,, therefore,
to learn his letters and mako pot-hooks at a
nigtit-school among a few colliers’ sons, who
paid threepence a week 6ach to a poor teacher
At the age Of .nineteen he could
write hia name,’ A night-school was set up
by; a Scotchman within a. fewminutes' walk
Of; Jolly’sClose; and to this, George Stephen

Ho kriewas far as reduction. George fastened
upon arithmetic with an especial seal, and was

In ’no very long time ho liaa worked out all
that could be yielded to him by tho dominie.
While thus engaged,'the; yodng man was get

{ ,.George'Was ambitious to save a guinea or
because he was in love with something
better ableto retiirn his good-will than a steam
englno. In leisure hours ho'turned liis me
chanical dexterity, to the bußiness of mending
the- shoes of his feilow-worknVcn, iind advanced
ft-oia mending to the making both'of shoes
and Jasta. This addition to bis daily twelve
honra’. labof at. the colliery, made some littlo
addition " to' his weekly earnings. It enabled
■him bis . first giilnea, and encouraged
him to think ;fhl).more, of,marrying Fanny
Henderson, a 1 pretty servant in.a neighboring
farm-house'; WeeMempered, sensible, and
good. -He onco had shoes of hers to mend,
and- as he carried them to her olio Sunday
evening with a friend ho could not help pulling
tbem-ont of. his pocket, every now and then,
to admire them because they wore hors, and
to bid his . companion observe what a capital
job he bad made'df them. . '
- George Stephenson still eqjoyed exercise ip
feats of agility and strength j still Bpent a part
ofeack idle afternoon on the pay-Satiirday in
taking his engine to pieces; cleaning It and
pondering over the uses and values of its parts.
He ,was a model workman in tho eyes of his
employers; never .missing a day’s wages
through - idleness or indiscretion; Bpending
/nonii of his evenings in public-houses, avoid
ing, the dog-fights, and cock-lights, and man
tights in which pitmen delighted. Once, in
deed,’being insulted by Ned Nolfcon, the bully
of.the .pit, young Stephenson disdained to
quail before: him; though ho was a groat lighter,
aOd a mon with whom it was considcred dan
gerbhg "to quarrel, , Nelson, challenged him to
a pitched battle, and.,, the - challenge was ac
cepted. Everybody arid Stephenson would bo
killed. The.young men and boys came round
him with awe, to aak whether it was true that
he was “ goin’ to felght NelsoU.” “Ayo,” ho
said, “never fear - for -me,'l’ll-felght him.”
Nelson left off yrork to go into training.
Stephenson worked on as usual; wont from a
; day’s labor to tln/iieid of battle, and on tlio
appointed evening, and, with bis strong lUuaclo
and hard.bone, put down tho bully, as he
never for a moment doubted that he would.-
%As a brakesman, George Stephenson had been
removed .to Willihgton Ballast-Quay, when
atthpage pf twenty-one lie signed his, namo
in. lhe.regiater of Newbitfn Church'as the - hus
band of-Fanny-Henderson; and, seating her
behind hiin on a pillion upon a stout farm-horse
bdrroiVed fhim her sister’s master, with the
.sister as bridesmaid and a ! friend as. bridesmah,
ho went flret to his father and ’ mother—who
were growing' old; and-struggling against pov
erty in. Jolly’s Close-f-and. hUvitig paid his
duty, as a son to them,, jolted -across country,
and through the streets of Newcastle; upon a
rido bomoward of fifteen miles. An upper
room In a small cottage at Wellington Quay
was the home to which George took hia bride.
Thirteen .months, afterwards, his only son,
Bobert, was,born .Oiere. Tho oxerciso of his
mechanical ski!), prompted sometimes by bold
speculations of his own, amused tho young
hasband—and the wife doubtioss-rof an eve
ning. Ho was at work on tho problem of
Perpetual Motion. He had acquired reputa
tion as a shoemaker; Accident gave rise to a
yet ’ moro ' profitable exercise of ingenuity.
Alarm of a chimney on Are caused his room to
be,one day. Bonded'With soot and water by
good-natured friends. Ills most valuable piece
of furniture, the clohk, was seriously injured.
He could not afford to send it to a clock-ma-
ker.qnd resolved totry his owif hand on the
workß;’ took tlieruto pieces, studied them,
' and so put them together as to cute his clock
in'a way , marvellous to nil the village. He was
aoonasked to cure a neighbor's clock, and
gradually made his title good to great fame as
acloek-curer throughout tlie'dlstrict. '
After having lived three years as brakesman
at Willington Quay, George Stephenson remo
ved toKillingworth, where he was made brakes
man at the West Moor Colliery. From the
high ground of Killingworth, the spires of
Newcastle, seven miles dlstantj are visible
weather and smoke permitting. At Killing
worth,- yben they had been but two or three
years" married," George,' Stephenson’s wife,
Fanny, died. Soon,after -her death, leaving
his little iboy.in .charge, of a neighbor,'he
marched on 'foot Into" Scotland; for he, had
been invited by . the owners of a colliery hear
Montrose to superintend the working of one of
Bolton and Watt’s engines. • For this work he
received rather high wages; and, after a year's
absence, ho marched back again, on foot, to
Killingworth/with twenty-eight pounds in
his pocket. During his absence a bad accident
had happened tq his father. The. steam-blast
had been inadvertently, let in upon hint when ho
was inside an engine.’ ’ It struck him in the
face, and blinded'him l’or the remainder of his
Tif^i* .George; comipg* home from' Scotland,
paid the Old man’s debts, removed , bis parents
to a comfortable cottage near his own place of
’work at Kllllftgworth—for ho was again taken
’op as brakesman" at the West Moor Pit—and
worked for them during the.remainder,of their
lives./ At this time there was distress andriot
among the laborers; George was drawn lor
•the mUitia, and spent tho remainder of his, sa
vings on the payment of a substitute. Ho!was
so much disabled in fortune’ that ho thought of
emigrating to America, as ono.of his ..sisters
was then doing in company With her husband,
but—happlly for his own country—he could
not raiseonough money to take him out of
it. To a'friend be Afterwards Said of his sor-
row at this time, “ You know tho road from
tuy house at the West MoOr Killingworth. I
remember;'when I'went along that road, I
wept bitterly, for I' knew , not where my lot
would becast.”.
It was a slight advance in independence, al
though ho advance in fortune, when Stephen
son at the,'age of twenty-seven joined two
other brakesmen in taking a small contract un
der the lesßeesfor breaking the engines at tho
West Moor pit; /The profits did ’nqt always
bring him in h.pound a-wcek. His liitio son,
Robert, was growing up, and ho was bent (irm
ly on giving him what ho himself had lacked—
the utmost attainable benefit of education in
his boyhood. Therefore, Qeorga spent his
nights in mending clocks and watches for ids
neighbors, mended and mado shoes, cut out
lasts, oven cut out the pitman’s clothes for their
wives to make up, and worked at their, em
broidery., Ho turned every spare minute to
account, and so wrung from a stubborn fortune
power to give the first rudiments of education
to his son,; 7f;r 1 , ■ ■

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT—
NEW GAS CONSUMING FURNACE,
CHILSOWS NEW CONE FURNACE,
aftor having been put to the moat severe test, during
the two oold wistkrs or 1850 and 1867, has proved to
be the most powerful heater in the World , saving frbtn
# to % the fuel over any of the beat furnaces now Id use.
These Furnaobs are constructed with a cast Iron ash
pit, and a broad, shallow pan-shaped fire pot, lined
with fire-brick or iron staves. The fire po‘. is surmount
ed with
A BKUIE3 OF CONG 3, or TAPERING RADIATORS,
large and broad at their base, but tapering to small aper
tures at the top, and uniting with toe anular chamber,
through which tho heat and smoke pass to the tine.
Tub whole products of combustion in the form of
smoke and oases, are suspended directly over the fire,
confined or compressed into tho tapering Conks and
continually rxposbd to the direct action of the rays
of heat and light from tho fire.
This heat and light is brought to a foods In gaoh
Cone, not unlike tho
COLLECTION OP TUB BUN’S RAYS,
to a focal polut through an ordinary leus, causing the
smoke and OASES to becorno intensely heated nud tho
roughly Oonsumbd, by this operation the smoek and
qABSs are made equally available with the forl
itself for heating purposes, while, in other furnaces,
It i*CARRIED off and wasted in the chimney.
All persons desirous of obtaining tho best and

riHOICE FARM LANDS FOR SALE.—
THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL RAILROAD QOMPAN f
is now prepared to sell about 1,500,000 acres ,of choice,
Farming lands, in tracts of 40 acres and upwards, on
ong credits, aud at low rates of Interest.
Those lands were granted by the Government to aid
In the construction of. this Road, and are among the
richest and most fertile in the world. They extend
from North-East and North-West, through the middle
of the Btate, to the extremo South, and Include every
variety of climate and productions fouud between those
parallels of latitude. The Northern portlou W. chiefly
prairie, interspersed with fine groves, aud in the middle
and Southern sections timber predominates, alternatluk
with beautiful prairies and openings.
The climate is more healthy, mild and equable, than
any other port of the couutry—tho air is pure aud bra
cing, while living streams and springs of excellent
water abound.
Bituminous Coal is extensively mined, and supplies a
cheap and desirable fuel, being furnished at many
points at $2 to $4 per ton—and wood can be had at the
same rate per cord.
Building Stone of excellent quality also abouudr,
which can be procured for little more than the expense
of transportation. ,
The groat fertility of those lands, Which are a black
rich mould, from two to five feet doep, and gently rpll
lug; tholr contiguity to tbls road, by which evety faei
lity is furnished for travel aud transportation to the
principal markets North, South. East, West, and tlio
ecouomy with which they can lie cultivated, render
them the most valuallo iuvostinout that can be found,
aud present the most favorable opportunity for persons
of industrious habits and small meaQS to acquire a com
fortable independence in a few years.
Chicago is now tho greatest gram market in the world;
and the facility and economy with which the products
of these lauds can ho transported to that market, make
them much more profitable, at the prices askea, than
those more remote at government rates, as the add!
tional coat of transportation is a perpetual tax on the
latter, which must bo borne by the producer, in the re
duced price he receives for his grain, Ac,
The title Is perfect—and when the final payments are
made, (loads are executed by tho trustees appointed by
the Stato, and in whom the title is vested, to tho pur
chasers, which convey to them absolute titles in fco sim
