The North Cduolinian tells the following anecdotc
of old farmer Of that region. who had tried the
plank road:
He was at first much opposed to the plank road,
it. But he came TO Fayetteville with his wagon
and produce, and drove on it some miles. When
he got back TO Chatham, our merchant friend asked
che had seen it," ''well, did you drive ON it1''
"Yes." "Well, don't you think you can carry
four times as much weight it with your four
horse team, n common road?'' "Oh yes,"
says he, ''its first rate; and it's fact that when
the wagon got TO the end Of the planks and struck
the heavy dirt road, every horse stopped and looked
round

srrALIse TnvsDnn die political struggle Of

STEALING THusDER.-In the political struggle OF
lS40, two delegates from D., New Hamps6ire--
lawyer and taior-started ON their mission to
the capital of that State together in a one horse
wagon. The tailor was quite as ardent politician
as his companion, albeit he was not 90 profound
but what he lacked in black-letter learning, and
logic, he made up in abundant flow of words
set speeches. snatches Of political orations, &c,
which he had heard at different caucuses, and
which his retentive memory hoarded up, ready 70
be delivered upon fitting occasions.
They had not proceeded far their journey
when the man of broadcloth asked his companion if
he intended 10 make a speech, and, upon receiving
affirmative answer, told him he should like to
hear it. as, probably, it was all scout and dried"
Accordingly, our limb of the law delivered himself
of his spcech--thc labor of more than one long
night-to our snapper of trifics," who. after
applaudng it much, and criticising IL little, de-
sired the lawyer go through with II again, which
was complied with. After discussing freely its
merits, and its chances for improvement in the de-
livery more especially, the man of " measures''
actually prevailed upon the speechfer go through
with il again; then complimented the victim By
telling him that twas now perfect, and it couldn't
be bettercd.
Immediately upon their arrival at Concord, they
repaired to the chamber of the convention, which
had just been organized. Our man of cloth watched
the chance, and before his companion could say,
I" Mr.. Speaker he anticipated him, got the floor,
and, to the surprise and asonishment Of his friends
in general, and his companion especially, recited
the whole speech he caught it on the journey
from the unconscious lawyers lips" verbatim ct
lifsratim then coolly took his seat amidst thun
ders of applause. -Bost0n Post.

new Improvement in the production of gas is
thus described in the New York Courier:
cdr. Gesner has made an improvementin thecon-
structon Of retors for the production of gas which
he has patented, and which is very simple, effective
and economical. The substance nsed out of which
he generates gas is the bitumcn found SO abund-
antly in Trinidad, and other West India islands.
In the experiment witnessed by us, one pound of
bitumen generates six entire feet Of gas, which,
without being purified, burnt with a more clear
than any gas yet furnished US by gas compa-
nies. The Doctor states that he can make the gas.
ON large scale, at a cost Of not more than fifty
cents per thousand feet, which, our readers viii
collect is the cost of making it at Southport and
other English towns. If this be the case, and from
what we saw we cannot doubt it, gas generated out
of this substance, by his method, be furnished
to the consumers at not to exceed one dollar and
half thousand feet, and leave, besides, large
profit to the manufacturer His apparatus IL ad-
mrably adapted to the lighting Of public houses,
theatres, &C.; and where the gas fixtures owned
by the occupant of the building, it can be subst
tuted, generator, at very trifling expense. Il
requires more science to operate it than 10 boil

RkTAINISo Locorocos IN OrricE.-The Whig
party--or that portion of il who do the labor and
foot the bs-are not easily roconciled 10 the idea
of retaining Locofoeos in Office any longer than the
public good requires t. while have the power Of
displacing them. Some how or other the belief Is
becoming quite prevalent among the Wings that
there Is as much honesty and capability in the
whig ranks as among their opponents, and hence
she Offices may be safely and efficiently filled with
friends as enemies. The truth is, that half the en-
barrassmcnts that have attended the various depart
ments Of the government at Washington and else
where have arisen through design on the part of
those who are taking their bread from Whig hands
while they wear under their cloaks daggers for the
heart of the Whig party and its principles.
