THE NEW BOAT ELK HORN.

This is a splendid freight boat, provided with a neat
cabin, and eierything in order ; built in Pittsburg by
order of Mr. Durant, for the Union Pacific Company, at a
cost of $52,000. It has entirely new and powerful
engines, and was made to encounter all the hard hits of
Missouri navigation. The new boat is complete in every
part, and has the following dimensions :
Length
Width
Hold

475 feet.
35 2-3
5

15 feet in depth, and 3 feet thick.
Floor timbers 61 by 31.
Plank 4i inches thick forward, and 31- aft.
Tho Elk Horn had the honour of towing the firbt barges
that ever navigated the Missouri. Her power is demon-
strated. She made the trip from St. Louis to Omaha in
nine days and fourteen hours running time, and never
delayed a moment on account of the bargee. Those were
not unfastened once, nor was a pound of freight moved on
account of them. _

Our old friend, Mr. H. M. Hoxio, had the direction of Mr.
Durant's experiment from St. Louis, and it could not have
been in abler hands. Hoak) has the force in him and the
capacity to execute which few possess, and is a man who
is never disconcerted by difficulties. The Elk Horn is
commanded by E. H. Barnes, master, and William Lingo,
pilot, veteran steamboat men and obliging gentlemen,
who are astonished at the victory achieved in barging on
the Missouri.
We congratulate Mr. Durant upon his achievement. It
is exclusively his own. He won it by that iron will and
resolution which have made him eminent. Ho has marked
a new era in the navigation of the greatest of navigable
rivers, and has demonstrated anew his tremendous force
and grasp in whatever ends he seeks to accomplish.

The Paris correspondent of the Star gives the
following amusing account of tho mode in which the
Census is now being taken in France :—"Two solemn
gentlemen in black, each armed with hugo registers, ink-
bottles, and pens, arrive and demand the age, profession,
Six., of every individual inhabitant. The intelligence
with which tho printed forms are filled up is remarkable,
especially in country parts. The census lately taken at
Enverineu, near Dieppe, contains the following insertion :
Louis Denis, aged • three months ; no profession;
bachelor.' A little further on : Mario Jouret, aged eight
days, idem, spinster.' "

EAGLE INSURANCE COMPANY, London
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS',
Fur the year ending 30th June; 1866, read at the ANNUAL
GENERACMEETING, 10th August, 1866.
CHARLES CHATI,IELD, Esq., in the chair.
The Directors have the satisfaction of reporting to the
proprietors that, in pursuance of -the resolutions • nu:llli-
mously passed at the Special General Meeting held in
April last, the amalgamation of the National Mercantile
Assurance Sociuty with the Eagle has been carried into
effect, and two of the directors of that society—Mr. Wil-
coxon (heretofore the chairman), and Mr. William Fre-
derick De la Rue—now occupy seats at the Eagle Board.
The following account exhibits the increased income
and outgoing of the year arising from the junction, which
it may be remembered takes effect retrospectively, and the
balance-sheet shows the assets as they existed on the 30th
June last, augmented by these just transferred.
By the Surplus Fund account it will be seen that the
total income from premiums and interest is £183,376 Os.
11d., and the total outgoing .E 414,790 13s. 6d. The dif-
ference, £68,585 7s. 5d., and the surplus fund contributed
by the amalgamated society, viz., £151,545 Bs. 6d., increase
the surplus fund of the company to £899,095 Bs.
The premiums on new assurances are considerably
less than those of the foregoing year ; but at the same
time a much smaller portion of them has been devoted to
re-assurance.

The change in the financial position of the Company
precludes an exact comparison with former years. The
expenses of management of the Eagle for the year are al-
most identical in amount with those of the last. The ex-
penses of the National Mercantile Society will, of course,
henceforth cease.
Deducting the sever e-Ikems payable on demand, or at
an early maturity, the realised assets, as set forth in the
balance sheet, amount to £2,559,135 4s. Bd. Of this sum
£178,340 belongs exclusively to the proprietors, £1,481,699
16s. Bd.* exclusively to the policy holders, and £859,095 Bs.
partly to the one and partly to the other. The last two
items subject, of course, to exact adjustment at each quin-
quennial investigation.
It remains only for the Directors to mention that, since
the last annual meeting the Company has lost, by the de-
cease of Sir William Gore Ouseley, and by the retirement
of Mr. Gould, the services of two of the members of the
board. Both gentlemen were much respected, and it is
with great regret that the directors have to make this an-
nouncement.

TILE BADGES -THEIR ADVANTAGES.

These barges were made in Pittsburg. They are 25
feet beam, and 125 feet in length. They are to be kept in
the service of the Union Pacific Company, in bringing

iron and ties to build a railway at the rate of nearly two
miles a day. They have made a groat conquest of the
obstacles to our navigation in this, that, while in our
lowest water, boats like the Colorado cannot navigate the
river with 100 tons without difficulty, these barges can
carry 200 tons on two feet of water with ease.

AN IMPORTANT INVENTION IN THE WORKING
OP IRON AND STEEL.—Two brothers, by the name of
Laird, of Danville, Vermont, after twelve years of experi-
ment and toil, have invented a combination of minerals,
to be inserted into steel, at a proper time, whereby the
poorest quality of steel can be made into the finest edge
tool in a few moments, and all flaws in steel can. be closed
up, and burnt steel immediately restored to make the best
of tools. For welding of iron or steel this preparation is
far better than borax, and must entirely supersede it, as
this preparation can be had for a ve►y small cost. Tools
manufactured with this preparation will stand at a higher
temper for any purpose, and will last twice as long as
those manufactured by any other process. A patent has
been granted for this invention, and tights aro being sold,
the rights for most of the New England States being
already disposed of. The counties of Suffolk and Essex
kayo been purchased by George Woodman, 159 Milk-
street, who has also in his hands, for sale, other state and
county rights of this patent, which is one of the most im-
portant granted by the Patent Office for years.

Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. Tho poor
from all parts aro admitted, the only condition being that
they aro homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, andhave
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a .sum of at least £l,OOO. more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will S-ou help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? Tho smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.

DAP.ING ROBBERY OF ADAMS EXPRESS.

- _
On Saturday night, Oct. 6th, shortly after the
eastward hound mail train of the Ohio and Missis-
sippi Railroad left Seymour, two men entered the
car of the Adams Express Company from the front
platform, by means of the running board, presented
a revolver at the head of the messenger, E. B.
Miller, and demanded his keys, with which demand
a graceful compliance was made. While one stood
guard, the other rifled the local safe of its contents,
in value between $12,000 and $15,000. Then, re-
quiring the messenger to turn his back to them,
they threw one of the three through safes out of the
car, pulled the bell-cord, and, as the engineer re-
plied with the signal to apply thebrakes, made their
escape as they had entered.
When the speed was sufficiently slackened they
jumped, and the engineer seeing them jump, and
presuming, as they were but half a mile ,from

L A TEST INTELLIGENCE.

(REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.)

RECEPTION OF THE VENETIAN DEPU

TATION AT TURIN.
SPEECH OF THE KING.

TURIN, Nov. 4 (Evening).

Upon receiving the result of the plebicitum from
the Venetian deputation to-day, King Victor Em-
manuel made the following reply :

"This day is the proudest of my life. Eighteen
years ago my father proclaimed from this city the
war of independence, and to-day you bring to me
the manifestations of the popular will in the Ve-
netian provinces, which, united with Italy, de3lare
my father's wish to be accomplished. You confirm
by this solemn act what Venetia did up to 1848, and
has maintained up to the present day with admirable
constancy and abnegation. I, therefore, pay a
grateful tribute to those generous patriots who up-
held their faith in the destinies of the country by
every kind of sacrifice and by their blood. To-day
foreign domination ceases for ever. Italy is consti-
