A very interesting experiment was made
last week at the Navy Yard, Brooklyn, with
submarine vessel, invented by MIR. Lambert
Alexandra. AT n signal given by Commodore
Salter, Mr.. Alexandra and the three men who
accompanied him in the vessel, decended in
forty feet water. They were ten minutes in
reaching the bottom. Twenty-Five minutes
afterwards, at signal given, they ascended,
and were received with shouts by the vast
crowd looking on. While under the water
they experienced no Inconvenience; could
breathe with ease and see clearly. They
opened a trap at the bottom of the boat, and
the atmospheric pressure from above pre-
vented any water from coming in so that they
could examine the bottom of the bay without
hinderance. They regretted they were not
permitted to stay down longer, that they
might have made further explorations. They
expressed the opinion that they could have
remained below for many hours.
The experiment is to be repeated Friday
next. The invention will be rendered sub
scrvient to many useful purposes.

GREELY ON MILEAGE, &c.-We take the
following extract from an editorial in the
New York Tribune. 1t is drawn with bold
pencil, and is, no doubt, a very faithful pic
ture in many instances:
"The Congressman has bawled himself
hoarse on the stump in behalf of 'retrench-
ment and refOrm;' but he reaches Washington,
and sees millions going this way, and cher
millions that, at dash of the pen; and his
eight dollars per day, which looked so invit-
ing in the prospect dwiHdles, in full view OF
those dazzling realities, into plttance which
he would be ashamed to keep his dog on.
SO he begins by overcharging his mileage by
some magnificent circumbendibus; next votes
himself a cart load of books, which he often
sells at a ruinous shave, (but he pockets the
proceeds and Uncle Sam the oss,) and now
he is ready for jobbing in contracts, in claims,
and dabbles in all manner of miscellaneous
corruption whereby the expenditures are
swelled, and the treasury depleted. So up 90
the appropriations to an enormous figure, but
nobody is to blame for it, Party hacks try
to make party capital out of it; and pot ap-
plies unseemly epithets to kettle; new dema-
gogues cOntrvc to supplant some OF the old
ones, and fall to realizing Esop's ia ble Of the
fox and the flies; so nothing comes of this
whitening expose and that tremendous casti-
cation, but infinite confusion, wrangling and
empty noise; at all events, no retrenchmeht.
but rather increased extravaganza, waste and
peculation."

People of an ordinary, low education, when
they happen to fall into good company,
imagine themselves the only object of its at
tention. If the company whisper, it is, to be
sure, concerning them, if they laugh it . at
them; and if anything ambiguous that by the
most forced Interpretation can be applied to
them happens to be said they are convinced
that it was meant for them-upon whiehthey
grow out of countcnance first and then
angry. This mistake is very well ridieuled

Theory is very well placed when found in
the ponderous tones of the student; but
when applied to the every day matter of fact
business that men are necessarily obliged
to follow for sustenance-it generally falls
short of the lion skin of greatness which it
assumes, and ekes it out with tho fox hide OF
assumption.

HENRY CLAY Willis Gaylord Clark, the
editor of the Knickerbocker, relates an incl
dent of what he saw in Washington: passing
the National Hotel at two o'clock on this
bright and cloudless warm Sunday, we saw
tall figure, clad in blue cloak, attended only
by lady and child, enter coach before the
door. Once seen, it was n face never to be
forgotten 1t was Henry Clay. That eagle
eye was not dimmed, though the great states
mans natural force was abated. we raised
our hat and bowed our reverence and admlra-
ton; our salutation was gracefully returned,
and the carriage was driven away. AS we
walked on, to keep an engagement to dine,
we thought of the late words of that emf
nent patriot: "If the days of my usefulness
as have too much reason to fear, be indeed
passed, / desire not to linger an impotent
spectator of the oft scanned field of life. L
have never looked upon old age, deprived of
the faculty of enjoyment, of intellectual per-
ceptions and energies, with any sympathy;
and for such think the day Of fate cannot
arrive too soon." One can hardly choose but
drop tear over such a remark from such a
man.

ADvERTIsING.-The following is an illus
tration of the penny-wise and pound-fooish
policy which some people adopt-A man in
Connecticut recently had farm for sale and
was advised to advertise it; he said "he
couldn't afford it, the farm was sold for
$1,000" The purchaser bought it on specu-
lation, paid 50 for advertising, and hortly
afterwards sold the same farm for $4,000.

The pay of Louis Napoleon, as President
of France, is twelve millions of francs year,
($2,130,0OO) which is about $l92,50o per
month, equal to $6,3ao per day. So Louis
Napoleon gets in four days more pay than
our President gets in whole year; his pay
for one day is more than the annual salary of
any of the members of our Cabinet.
