The popular sentiment indicates in the most un-

be salutary wherever and by whomever read. As
a specimen of its general character, quote the
following paragraph. Speaking of progress" he

SMALLEST STEAM ENGINE IN THE WoR1D.-Mr.
benjamin ]. Warner, the London watch manufac-
turer has sent 10 this country, for exhibition at the
Worlds Fair, the working models of two steam
engines. We infer, from notices of them in some
ofthe London papers, that they will be the most
curious specimens of minute workmanship exhib-
tied in the Crystal Palace. The smallest one, an
osclllating cylinder engine, stands upon an Eng
iish fourpenny piece, (size of a half dime,) with
room to spared. The cylinder is but one sixth of
an inch in diameter, the length of stroke three
eghths, and diameter of the piston is that of an or
binary needle. The other is beam engine, COM
posed of more than two hundred pieces. The
length of the stand is three and quarter inches;
length of beam two and quarter inches; dame
ter of cylinder three eighths of an inch, and the
length of stroke seven eighths of an inch Both
ofthese engines are screwed together with the del
icacy and precision of the work ofla watch.

WASHINGTON MoNvMENr.-The managers oGthe

hit upon plan of raising funds which is likely to
be very successful. They have appointed spe-

Crystal Palace. A model ofthe monument is pla-
ced there for exhibition and around it are contt-
button boxes, of plate glass, so that each visitor
may have an opportunity of casting in his mite in
to the fund for the completion of the work. The
monument has been up the height of 1872 feet, and
when completed it will be $40 feet high. The to-
tai estimate cost is 10000 and 5000 900 have
already been expended.

Presideutial Appointments.


The President seems to have been peculiarly
unfortunate in many of the appointments which
he has been making of late. Free-soilers appear
vastly popular at the present crisis. whether it be
that the President is trying to buy them from the
error of their ways, or whether the bestowal of
office is the reward of their past detection, time
must determine. Indeed, to have been an extremist,
whether North or South, seems to be almost sine
qua non for important political positions under the
present administration. At the South, disunion-
lists such Davis Soule, and the lately appointed
Judge Of the Supreme Court of the United States,
are placed in the van of Southern appointments,
while at the North, ftee-Soilers such as McClel-
land, Dix, and VIM. ]. Brown of Indiana, seem
destined to receive the fat places of Presidential
preferment One would have thought that the
President of Union, DESTROYS doubtless of pre-
serving it such, would have considered long ere
he appointed to prominent places men of avowed
hostility 10 the Union, whether they be freeSoilerS
southern diSunioniSts, both being alien 10 the
true interests of that Union, over which by rare
concourSe of fortuitous circumstances he has been
called TO preside.
But the appointment Of VIM. ]. Brown, caps
the climax in this serious comedy of errors. That
lie is freeSoiler is admitted, AMI that to this suf
icientsin he has added that of duplicity and false
hood seems to be also universally conceded. A
prevancation, under moderate circumstances, is
bad enough, duplcity no matter when practiced,
is objectionable; but when man is convicted of
both in the face of the world, upon the floor of
the House of Representatives of the Union, when
the eyes of the nation were anxiously turned, in
exciting times, to the election of speaker, an
event which might decide the fate of the Union;
10 see him then deliberately selling himself to
handful of fanatics for the sake of office and then
unblnshingly denying the sale; are facts which
are well calculated 10 make us blush at the de-
pravity of human nature. The wretched unfor-
tunate sunk at once into loathed insignifcance
HIS warmest friends forsool him and publicly
thanked those who had unearthed the badger
Since then t'none so poor as 10 do him reverence"
until the Presidency sought him cut in his merited
retirement and elevated him 10 an important and re-
sponsible Office. Whether his previous want OF
principle constituted his recommendation or wheth-
rascalty is necessary for the position, or wheth
the President was actuaed by the desire TO reform
the traitor, does not appear. But it is to be hoped
that honesty at least will be looked to in such ap
pointments and that if the political character be
no test, yet the administration will not again le-
ward a man thus convicted of duplcity and ras-
cality.

SAD CASE OF DRowNIxo.-Mr. James Swain, a
resident of Burlington, N. j., was drowned near
that place few days ago. while attempting to
rescue two ladies who were thrown into the Della
ware by the capsizing of row boat. One of the
ladies' had sunk ice, and it was with the utmost
difficulty that lie succeeded in placing her in the
boat. The exertions overcame him, and after
succeeding in saving the ladiesl he sank to rise no
more. He left wife and child TO mourn their
sudden bereavement.
