Sr. TALENT/Plea Da.v e —Yesterday was St. Val
entine's Day. There was a time when the mails
used to groan beneath the missives sent by love-
sick swains and sentimental Misses, and extra
clerks were pressed into service at the prominent
Post Office. But the custom of sending valentines
has become almost amide, having long been re
garded as one of those which were " more honored
in the breach than the observance."
ON Exam:smolt—A section model of the great
Donnovan bridge will remain on exhibition at the
Brady House for a few days. This is the bridge
which came in such strong competition with the

Engineer, Stevenson, at the instance of others,
when his own judgment preferred the Donnovan
bridge. Engineers and scientific men are invited
to examine the model. ltt

RAILROAD Accienicrs IR 1860.—There were 74
accidents on the railways of the United States last
year, by which 57 persons were killed and 315
wounded. This does not include accidents to per. 7
sons not on the . ears. The number killed last year
was leas than half that of any year since 1852, and
the number wounded were also lees. There has
been a gradual decline in numbers of killed and
wounded for eight years, indicating more care
paned by experience. In the pad eight years
there have been 977 accidents to trains, by which
1,166 were killed and 3,926 . wounded. So sue

COAL BURNING RAILROAD LOOOMOTIVES.-A Sche
nectady built locomotive, No. 192, owned by the
N. Y. C. R. R. Co., has lately been altered to a
coal burning engine at Syracuse, under the super
vigon of Dyer Williams, Master Mechanic. The
engine has made several trips between Syracuse
and Rochester, and the Union says it works quite
vatiefactorily. The burning of coal is considered
quite an improvement and a saving of expense
over wood. Two tons of soft bituminous coal are
used in making the trip from Syracuse to Roches
ter, while the engines of the old style use from five
to six cords of wood in going the same distance.
GOLD BY THE YARD.-A cubic inch of gold is
worth one hundred and forty-six dollars; a :labia
foot, two hundred and fifty-two thoneand two hun
dred and eighty-eight dollars; and a cubic yard,
six millions eight hundred and seventy-six dol
lars; which, welded in one mass, would be con
tained in a cube of Awenty;tbree - Tc44:., We would
like the individual who made tlioiroilikulatiolks to

SIMICISLMSB COAL-BUILIUMG LOCOMOITVI4B,--It is
known that in England the law requires that rail
way engines shall consume their own smoke. The
London Artisan describes one of the modes de
vised for realizing the end in view. The whole
apparitus is exterior to the fire-box,.and, there
fore, not &spoiled to heat, and is controlled in the
Most perfect manner by a single stop-cock. • Air is
admitted, above the fuel, by means of one or more
rows of tubes, inserted through the walls of the
fire-boxe and jets of steam are projected through
the air tubes from nozzles, one-sixteenth of an
inch in diameter, In small steam pipes outside the
fire-box, to increase the quantity and force of the
air admitted aboVe the fuel, in order to consume
the smoke. The jets of steam are used principally
alien the engine is standing, with the aid of a light
draught from a ring jet in the chimney, to carry off
the products of combustion, and these may be shut
tff when not required. The supply of air through
the tubes may also be regulated by dampers. The
grate bars axe placed close together, with narrow
1 7 spares, and the ash-pan and the damper are
:y fitted. It is stated that this plan requires
less weight of coal than the engines formerly
did of coke, to do the same duty.
OlL.—The Sunbury and Erie Railroad, even in
its unfinished condition, is deriving revenue from
a source that was not thought of when the road
was projected, and is scarcely appreciated, even
now. We refer to the oil wells that have been
opened in Warren, Crawford and Erie coup-till
within the past year. Some of. thendbfricills are
within short distances of the railroad, and branch
railroads will Juubtless be made to reach them and
thne obviate the necessity of hauling the oil over
the rough country roads.
The annual report of the Company shows that
during the year /860 n 9 less than 22,119 barrels of
rocs oil were sent over the road to Erie. The pro
gressive monthly increase in the business is shown
in the following statement:
Barrels.

May - - - - - - - 1156
Jane 777
July ----- - - 1423
August -- - -- - - 2340
September - - - - 2339
October -------
November .3089
December 6431
For the year - -
It has been ascertained that during the month of
January just closed, the number of barrels sent
over the road exceeded 14,500. Thus, December
showed more than double of November, and Jan
uary Moro than double of December. Such rapid
augmentations of a business that was -scarcely
dreamed of a year ago, partake of the character of
phenomena, and set at defiance all calculations for
the future. But even with vague estimates, it is
easy to see that when the Sunbury and-Brie Rail
road is completed, the business of the oil' region,
the transportation of the oil to market, the furnish
ing of machinery, tools, supplies, and the carrying
of passengers interested in the region, will give
the road a large revenue from a source of which
the originators of the enterprise had no concep
tion.
Philadelphia is gaining nothing by this extra
ordinary development of hidden wealth in North
western Pennsylvania, because the Sunbury and:
Erie Railroad is. not completed. The oil is all car
ried to Erie, by railroad, or down the Allegheny to
Pittsburg. The supplies for the region• are chiefly
obtained from New York, and this must-continue
until the gap of unfinished railroad between Whe
tham Station and . Warren is closed up. So, too,
we must continue to be deprived of the great bulk
of the Lake trade, until we bring Erie into direct
communication with Philadelphia. New York
must continue to receive not only that, but the
chief portion of the business of the oil region of
Pennsylvania, the supplying of which bids fair to
be as valuable a business as the supplying of a
young California with the necessaries of life.
Thus every year is furnishing new proofs of the
necessity of finishing the Sunbury and Erie Rail
road. Ent there are financial difficulties in the
way that are insuperable, unless relief is furnished
by the State Legislature. The form of relief asked
for is shown in the Company's annual report, and
we hope that, as a simple and essential measure of
State policy, the Legislature will grant what the
Company asks.
DESCRIPTION OF RlVERS.—Southey has remarked
that rivers May be considered—
Physically, geographically and mathematically;
Politically and commercially ;
Historically;
Poetically and pictorially ;
Morally and religiously.
In the earth's structure they have been aptly
enough called its veins, just as the mountains and
the mighty masses of granite represent. itsbones;
and, like mountain chains, rivers mark out nature's
kingdoms and provinces, and are the • physical di,
.viders and sub-dividers of continents. Some of
the most picturesque features of natural scenery are
obviously due to the action of rivers; and in many
a mountain gorge and rocky valley we see them
still exerting their plastic force in wearing down
solid rock, and carrying the debris towards the sea.
In mountainous countries some of the grandest
scenery of glens and ravines are due to a river ha
ving forced its currents; and many a rich and
beautiful valley through which a river now calmly
flowsseems to have been once either stony wilder
ness or ancient: lake_ Rome would not have
crowned her seven hills if the waters of the ancient
lake of the Roman plain had not found an outlet
in some pre-historic age through the gorge in which
the Tiber flows. The flowery vale of Tempe is
said to have been inundated before Ossa and Olym
pus were separated, as Pliny says, "by divine
agency," and gave an outlet to the river Peneus ;
but we need not go as far as Thessaly for instances
where a river flows between approximating preci
pices, which seem to have been rended asunder
by an earthquake, or some giant power.
The geologist sees in rivers "the faithful and
continuous chronologers of the earth," the recorders
of ages anterior to human records, and even to the
existence of man; for, by her endless and uniform
flow, they register in visible characters in their
channels and valleys successive changes of by-gone
time. He is, indeed, led to startling conclusions
with regard to the lapse of pre-historic ages, and
the antiquity of existing continents, by studying
the action of the great rivers. For instance (but
it is, perhaps, the grandest example that could be
given,) the seven hundred thousand tons of water
which rush over the precipice at the Falls of Niag
ara every minute are estimated to carry away a
foot of the cliff yearly, and the cataract having
evidently once been at Queenstown, four miles be
low, it has been concluded—assuming this rate of
destruction to have been uniform—that the fall
has been twenty thousand years in receding to its
present site. Again, we see immense deposits ac.
cumulating at the mouths of great' rivers, and
tracts of new land in oeurae of formation—as, for
..example, at the mouth of the Ithone—by the &brie
and shingle carried by the river towards the sea;
and in the extent of these formations we have, in
many instances, proof of the lapse . • of immense
periods of time ; thus it has been calculated that
the "delta" of the Mississippi, which is fourteen
thousand square,milea in ,extent, cannot have been
formed in less than sixty thousand years.
