Some twenty years since, I formed a traveling acquaintauce,' upon a steamboat on the Hudson river, with a gentleman, who, on that occasion, related to me some incidents of the first voyage of Fulton to Albany, in his steambat the Clermont, which I have never met with elsewhere. The gen tlentau's name I have lost, but I urged him, at/the time, to publish what he related t, which, however, so far as I knew, he has never done. I chanced, stud my narrator, to be at. Albany on business, when Fulton arnved there hi his unheard of craft, which every body felt so ranch interest itt seeing. Being ready to leave and hearing that thia craft was to retnrn to New York, I repaired on board, and enquired for jllr. Fulton. I was - referred to the cabin, and I there found a plain gentleman: )y man, wholly alone and engaged in writingi, "Mr. Fulton, I presume." • " Yes, sir:' . . " Do you return to New York with this boat I" " We.shall try to get back, sir." " Can I have a passage down I" " You can Lake your chance with us, sir." I inquired the amount to be paid, and after a mo ments In4.itation, a sum.l think six dollars was nn• Med. The amount in coin I laid- in his open hand, and with an eye fixed upon it. he remained so long motionless that I supposed- there might be a mi - count, and said to him, "Ia that right, sir 1" ThiS roused hint as front a kind of revery, and as. he looked up at me-, the big tear was brimming in his eves, and his voice faltered as he said.- Excuse me but mereory'sVas false as I contemplated the first pecuniary reword I have ever received fOr my exertions in adapting steam to navigation. I would gladly commemorate the occasion over a bot tle of wine with you, but really lam too poor eyrie, for that. just now ; I trust we may meet again when! this will not he ;Some four years after this : when, the Clermont had - heel.: •g,rcatly imprbved. and tr,-o new boats made, ranking Mon's tle,•t three boats' regularly plying between :iew York and Albany, I took pa,§- s.rtt in one of these for the latter city. The cabin in that day, was below; and as I. walk ed its length t aid fro, I saw I was closely obser- vel by one I f.upriosed a strand-er. Soon, however I recalled the featrae. of Mr. Fulton, but witimht disclosing this I continued my walk and waited the rti.4.ult. At length in passing his seat our eyes met, when he sprang to his feet, and eagerly seizing my 'hand exclaimed. I knew it mu-t he you, for your features have-never e,eapPd me; arid although '1 inn still far fr.•ni rich, yet I venture that bottle now.- It was ordered and during its discussion I.lr. F. ran rapidly but-vividly' over his experience of the world's co!iness. and sneers, and of the bopds; fear 4, di , appointment; and difficulties that were scattered through his whole career of discovery, up to the very point of his final crowning triumph, at which he so fully felt he had at last arrived. Aral in reviewing all these -•aid he, I have again and again recalled the occasion and the incident ofonr first interview at Affinity; and never have done so with eat its renewing in ray mind the vivid emo tion it originally caused. That seemed and st doe; seem to me, the turning ptint in my destiny —the dividing line; betweenjight and darkness, in my career ut.on earth, for it was the first =tail rec‘erniticat io navigation—a (limn so recent as to be -till Iveoll,ctegsbrmany—and such Fn).- ton there related them were the early appreciatiouts I by the world, of a di , coy c ery which has invaded all water.. causing a revolution in navigation which hits almost literally- brought the very ends of the earth . in contact.—/Valo Commercial. A floor - JOKE.—The following joke is too good for us to take the responsibility of it, particularly as we were sworn never to mention it, but editors' oaths, lovers' prihinises, and pastry cooks' pie crust, are about of a muchness ; so- here goes : Young mammas , are proverbially fond of displaying the precious intellects of their "buds of beauty."' ; A triend of ours, dropping in at the dinner hour of 5 a youthful pair, not two hundred miles from the city, was treated to a gratuitous entertainment on the score of maternal solicitude by the charming IMs tess. " You've - not seen our shake hands with the gentleman." Of course Willie obeyed di rections. and of course our friend as in duty bound, was filled with admiration from the crown of his head to the sole of his:feet. "Ile's so polite too," urged the mother; "says yes sir, and no ma'am, and - can use his knife and fork like - a gentleman.' " Now, Willie." said she, placing:him at the table, the better to give a practical proof of her assertion; "now, Willie, what will you havel" Our friend was all cars for the reply, and prepared to go into . immediate ecstasies, but no reply came. "Will you have sonic beans 1" "No-ol " roared out the precious. " that the way to speak to your math ? No—what " " Nu beans !" - shouted the little Curiosity, fling ing the plate at his mother's held, and upsetting the soup tureen into our friend's lap.

It was a :dily of great rejoicing throughout the State; Audltike arrival . of the" Cider; at the various places...a pig the line was signalized . with great pomp and splen dor.
