STEAM CARRIAGES.

The rapid motion of the steam carriaoes
on the Liverpool and Manchester railway
IS described with great animation by q wri-
ter i'll BlackwOOd's Magazine, who says
"At first it was comparatively slow but
soon we felt that we were indeed going and
then it was that every person TO whom the
conveyance was new, must have been SEN
sible that the adoption Of locomotive power
was establishing fresh era in the state of
society, the final results of which it is i'm
possible to contemplate. On looking over
the earth, with its own iron stripes on which
we shot along it seemed like a vast riband
unrolling itsefrapidIy as we went. Atour
maximum of speed the pebbles scarcely
caught the eye; before the sight was CairIy
fixed upon them they were far away and
lost in the rear. The shouts Of ioy which
greeted those in front, fell in their full clad

intervening space; while those which hail
ed us as we passed, were destined to be the
compliment of others, who, in another IN
stant, occupied orr place. At times It was
difficult to recognize or distinguish the coun-
tenances Of the long, continuous lines Of
spectators, as they seemed to glide away
like painted figures swiftly drawn through
the tubes Of a magic lantern. One engine
