ROBERT FULTON correspondent of the New
York Courier and Enquirer, speaking of the ocean
steamer relates an incident in the history of steam
which possesses little interest He thus tells IT,
"a gentleman. now an honofed representative in
of the Congressional Districts New Jefsey visited
Robert Fulton when he in Paris. The man
whose genius has made new in civilization, oe-
cupied small and obscure room. The embodiment
of the expansive power of steam confined within
very narrow limits. Like G0genes in his tub Full
ton was almost lodged in the circumference of cyl
Under. On the wall of his habitation was sketched
coarsely, but distinctly, the plan of steamboat
tor there is the image of which will yet traverse
the river and ocean,
''And wherever he went, this image of the future
he carried with him. Ifhe did not sketch it the
wall, it was written in his mind. He it as he
walked along; he thought of it; he dreamed of it
and, at last, he acted it. The taper of his lone
room illumined the world.
g | recollect the distinct emphasis, which Mr.
Clay gave to the words when conversing respecting
the many memorable and wonderful men who were
given to the world in the year 1769-Napoleon,
Wellington, Clinton, Fulton. And the greatest OF
these qras Fulton said he. 1t truly said, and
the world almost even now, acknowledge it,"
Laziness grows on people it begins with cobwebs
and ends in iron chains. The more business man
has, the more he is able to accomplish for he learns
to economist his time
The grave buries every error-covers every defect
-extinguishes every resentment. From its peace
full bosom springs none but fond regrets and tender
recoIections. Who can look down upon the grave
of an enemy and not feel compunctious throb tina
he should have warred with the poor handful of eart
that lies Wondering before him.

The Lace nfcrehant,s Dog.


Who would imagine that dog had been made
seruceable as clerk, and thus made for his master
upwards of a hundred thousand crowns?
And yet an incident like this happened upwards
OF thirty years since
One of those industrious beings who knows how to
make chaldron of Goals out of billet of wood de-
termined, in extreme poverty, to engage IN trade
he preferred that of merchandise which occupied
the least space and calculated to yield the great
est profit. He borrowed a small sum of money from
friend and repairing to Flanders he there bought
pieces of lace, which without any danger he SNUG
gled into France in the following manner:
He trained an active spaniel to his purpose. He
caused him to be shaved and procured for him the
skin OF another dog, of the same hair and the
shape He then rolled the lace around the body of
his dog and put the garment of the stranger
adroty that it impossible to discover the trick
The lace being thus arranged in his pedestrian band
box, he would say to his docile member, Forward,
my Friend"
At these words the dog would start and pass bold
~ through the gates of Malines Valenciennes In
the face of the vgant officers placed there to pre-
vent smuggling. Having passed the bounds he would
wait for his master in little distance in the open
country. Then they mutually caressed and Toasted,
and then the merchant placed his packages in a
place of security renewing his occupation neces-
sity required.
Such was the success of the smuggler, in five or
six years he amassed handsome fortune and kept
his couch. Envy pursues the prosperous mlschiev-
Gus ncghbor betrayed the lace merchant, and, not
withstanding his efforts to disguise his dog he was
suspected, watched, and discovered.
How far does the cunning of such animals extend
Did the spies of the custom house expect him at one
gate he saw them at distance and instantly went
towards the other. Were the gates shut against
him, he overcome every obstacle-sometimes he
leaped over the WALL at other times passed secretly
behind carriage running between the legs Of
travellers he would thus accomplish his aim One
day, however, while swimming in stream near Ma
ho Oh t n lia1 IN no Thorc
was then about him FIVE thousand crowns worth OF
lace-the losses of which did not afiict the master
but he was inconsolable for the loss of his faithful
dog.
