DocroR FgArKLIN's ToAsT.-Long after
Washing'on's victories over the F,ench and
English had made his name familiar to all
Europe, DR.. franklin had CHANGED to dine with
tae English and French ambassadors, when,
as near es we can recoliect, the following
toas,s were drunk:
BV the English Ambassador:
Ens,and-The Sun, whose bright beams
enlighten and fructiy the remotest corners Of
the Earth"
The French Ambassador, glowing with ma
tionsl pride, but too polite TO dispute the pre-.
vious toast, drank:
"France-rhe Moon, whose mild, steady
and cheering rays are The delight of all na-
tons, consoiing them in the darkness. and
maails their dreariness beautiful
Dr.. franklin then rose, and with his usual
dignity ard simplicity said: t.
"George Washing Joshua, who
commanded the sun and Moon TO stand still,
and they obeyed him"

FALSE ROULETTE TAsLEs.-The New York
Dav Book says: Among the articles taken
from the gambling place of jeremiah Donavau
the other day, was a roulette table, 8, con
strucied that the party betting was wholly al
the mercy ofthose having charge ofthe game,
and If they elected that he should not win, il
was impossible for him 10 do so. This fact
should operate as warning to those tempted
20 stake their money; aud such may be assured
that nearly all instruments used by professed
gamblers are of the same character"

STEAM FIRE ENGISE.-The Journal of the
Fran tic Institute for the present month con
tains an authentic description of the Cincinna
Ii FIRE engine. The account says in regard 10
the pumping power of the engine, that ii can
throw either one or six streams and will
discharge about two thousand barrels of water
per hour. The greatest throw Of water yet
made is stated 10 be two hundred and forty
feet from the end Of the nozze, measuring
one inch and three-quarers, TO where the
solid body of the stream fell, and TWO hundred
and ninety one feet TO the point reached by the
spray.
Steam fire engines were tried years ago in
New York and London, and proved to be too
expensive and unwieldly. But the above is a
new invention, cheaper, lighter, and mora effec.
tive, and will doubtless come into general use
in cur cities.
