LoCoMoTIyE ON INCLINED PLANES. Mr..
Ezra Coleman, Of our city, a brother Of the in
ventor of the Eolian attachment to the piano
forte, has constructed an Improvement, says the
Philadel phla Gazette, on the locomotive en-
glne, by which loaded trains may be carried up
inclined planes, without any stationary power.
Experiments on miniature scale have shown
that the little locomotive used, with about 80
pounds Of steam, can run up an inclined plane
Of l2 inches per foot, with fifty six pound
weight, and doubtless could have taken up
,nuch heavier weight, and at an angle of great
er degree. The machinery is placed on a
Frame so tllatit requires little trouble to attach
it to an engine. it propels a screw which acts
on rollers placed between the rails-there is
but little friction, the screw and rollers being
both movable. The engine is at the perfect
control of the director, and there is no danger
of a backward movement. 1t must prove a
very desirable acquisition to railroad companies
who have planes to ascend.

.messrS. EditorS:--I perceive, by commune
cation from Argus" in your columns, that he
disavows any allusion to the Eastern States in
his forensic article dated 9th January. From
a careful perusal of the observations referred
to, could not but conclude, that manufactu1-
ing villages at tho East were included in his
structures, but am happy to know that it was a
apprehension; and have not the least reason
to question his accuracy as to this state.

they also come out clcGni Wonderful as this may
it is done by the action and reaction of the

soap, without any rubbing surface or friction what

A WONDERFUL TRAVELLER. We have in
our possession says the Philadelphia Chronicle,
book of adventures which will bear compari-
son with those of the famous Baron Munchau-
sen. They were, written by Monsieur Harlc-
quin, celebrated actor. The following is an
extract:-'When was in Oregon territory,
saw an Indian belonging to the tribe commonly
called SapheadS, but by Others known by the
name of Congress, who wrote speech in one
hour, so long that it took two men four years
and six months to speak it. When it was fin.
ished, the chief was appointed a committee Of
eight to investigate it, and see whether there
was any sense in it, but he set fire to the
speech, and hung himself in despair. The
flames made such light, that the Indians
thought it was a prairie on fire, and immedi-
ately took to flight This is supposed to be the
reason why so large a portion of Oregon terri
tory is uninhabited."
