Important Disjiovi:ry im Spaix. The fol
lowing paragraph in relation to a new plan for
propelling vessel?, recently discovered in Spnin,
in translated from a Mud rid paper, of the 11th
of June. Dull. Arntr.
We inform the public that we have seen the
n;odelofanew invention tor propelling thip-,
by Mr. Andrez l7.a, and which has been con
structed by menna furnished by our lns'itute j
here for promoting mechanical inventions. The j
one alluded to is utiqi.estiurmhly highly impor
tant, and from fhe immense locomotive power
applied by the hund, through the agency of an
t ndlcss chain, Bttnched to whcclsof twenty and
thirty feet diameter, Recording to the depth of
water and height of the vcsfcI, it is demonvta
led that the power of one man, thua applied,
is equal to that of Fix horses in steamers it is
i-hown that four portable wheels can be easily
applied to a ship of war of three or four hun
dred men, possessing thus & tremendous loco
motive power by the principle in question. The
same is applicable to merchantmen, without ex
traordinary hard work. A most plaring revo
lution in navigation has been attained by Mr.
Ia, but he requires the support of the whole
nution that his invention should not be usur
ped by foreigners, as hashappened with steam
power.
The Blackwkll Kmlway. This road is
constructed for the purpose of uniting the. heart
of the city with Blackwcll, the lower end of the.
shipping on the Thames. It is built upon ar- j
cliea over the streets, anil passengers may look
down the chimneys of a large pott ion if the
houses which they pass. The speed is very
fast still you may see no engine, nr,r does your
eye catch any cinders. The train is set in mo
tion by a stationary engine, to which is attach
ed a rope, reaching from one end of the road Io
the other. This would seem to render tho stop
page of the train impassible until it arrived at
its destination. Yet such is not the fact. The
conductor has but to give a eort of a jerk, and the
motion of the cars is immediately urrcstcd, as
I witnessed when wo stopped at one of the de
pots, or "stations," as the English call them, j
i here are t vo ropes and two tracks one for
going and the other for returning. The ropes
arc in the form of bands, and revolve tipnn
wheels at each end. Several trains at differ
ent points on the line may be conveyed by one
of the rope, which are in perpetual motion."

A Oi a nt Nkoho. We find in the Louisville
Daily Advertiser, the following curiouj account
of b giant negro.
"Died, estcrdiiy morning, at the Exchange
Hotel in this city, a negro boy, the property of
ilr, Andrew II. Jordon, of Columbus, Misisip
i. We visited him after he was shrouded, in
company with bis master, from whom we re
ceive tho following remarkable details concern
ing him. Ile was fimr years old in April last,
and four feet one inch iu height ; was born in
Mississippi of parents in nu respect remarkable
for any deviation from the ordinary size and
temperament of their respective sexes. No
thing usual in perron or mind distmgui.-ln d
him, until he completed his first year, w hen he
began developing in a manner that excited the
astonishment of u!l who saw bun. His hair
grew with surprising rapidity over bis entire
body and lace, giving him w hit-kern ami beard
us luxuriant as an adult. His body at-sumrd
the muscular developments of athletic man
hood, hie strength enabling him at four years of
ag to litt ViK pounds deud weight, with ease.
His mind was clear and strikingly vigorous,
and bis character distinguished tor integrity
and generosity. We e xamined bis corpse, and
were astonished ut the symmetry and enormous
strength ofbis projections. A grenadier might
have envied the lulnrt. of his whiskers on cheek
and chin, and a demagogue consented to be ho
nest with the ingenuous expression of his coun
tenance. His hands and feet were more taper
snd symmetrical than any f hi race we ever
saw. He fell a victim to pUur.ty, and the
eminent medical ml e.ilied in to ui rclir f, were
fully persuaded of th at ejracy of Mr. Jordon's
lUbin&at of Ui ae."

K.MRAoitniNvi.v a p. On Friday afternoon,
a most extraordinary leap was made by a horse;
attached to a stanhope. The animal had been
left by the owner at Mr. Pobson's door, near
fluy's hospital, without any one to mind him.
The horse was frightened by something pas
sing, and started oil' at full gallop. At the end
of St. Thoinna street is a high gate, with iron
spikes three or four iiipbcs long on the top.
This he cleared without touching it, but was
thrown down by the concussion if the gig a-
gainst the bar. It is wonderful that no lives
were lost, as many children were playing abou.
The horce was only injured in his hind legs.

The nu at and unusual rife in the price of wheat,
i a few weeks since, was caused mainly by a few o.
peiutors in Troy and Kuihe.ier who diovo up wheat
here to l.l. All well informed dealers knew
that price could not be maintained, and held still,
until after trembling a while on the highest figure,
wheat has ag uii sunk to $5 cents. Now conies
the pinch and the illustration of the ilf cts of the
speculative movement. Those who were engaged
in it have beco pietty much cleaned out a mailer
of no sort of consequence, to far as the public is
concerned but what is of importance is, that the
fair regular dealer finds bul little lo do. Piemen!
prices will not draw fonh the crop. The id. as of
the firm, rs have been raised by f 15 paid Ul Ju'y,
and such as are able to hold on will do sn until
