positively declares, in an article in the st.
Petersburg Gazette, that he had communica-
ted all his plans in non official way to the
English government before Prince Menchi-
koff had gone to Constantnople, and is now
astonished at the affectation of virtuous in
dignation of Lord John Russell and his col
leagues, who knew of his intentions before

official communications, and hints that their
object was the partition of Turkey. Lord
John became unwell when he received the
serious charges of duplicity brought against
him by the Gar, and complete communi-

A New MOTIVE PowER.-The Worces

A New Motive PowER-The Worces-
ter Spy furnishes the following description
of new motor, invented by mechanic of
that city, which, it is thought by persons
competent to judge, will be made to super
cede the steam engine by reason of its greater
economy in the consumption Of fuel, con-
venience and safety:
The machine is called the "vapor engine,
and the propelling power is produced by the
expansion of air in cylinders by the appli-
cation of steam. The invention comprises
two features, one entirely mechanical, the
other chemical The first consists of the
peculiar arrangement of the valves, by which
the atmospheric resistance of the Exhaust"
is not felt, consequently a saving of fifteen
lbs. to the square inch, is effected, which in
common practice is equivalent to a saving
of 33 per cent. The peculiar mechanical
structure of the valves, and their connec-
tions, are also prominent features in the in
vention on the score of wear and tear.
The chemical feature, is that of rendering
atmospheric air more sensitive to the action
of caloric, than is laid down in the books,
viz: doubling its volume under a tempera-
ture of PIP deg; whereas, a temperature Of
400 deg. has been considered requisite to di-
late air to twice its normal volume. 1t is
claimed by the inventor, that the combina-
tion of these two inventions gives result
as six to one in favor of his invention, over
the ordinary steam engine, and an explosion
cannot OCCUR from Carelessness, in the use
of the engine.

AMERICAN SrEEL.--Mr. Thaddeus Seleck,
well known as an ingenious iron-master in.
forms us that he has just succeeded in making
cast steel, Of the finest quality, from the ore
Of the Franklinite Iron Company, Franklin
township, Sussex CO., N. j. Said ore was
deoxydized at Sidney forge, in Sussex CO., and
then melted at the Adirondack steel works.
Jersey City, and the product of this melting
lis pronounced by the best judges equal to any
cast steel in market. We are not aware tina,
any steel, no matter Of what quality, was
ever made so easily and cheapy before. We
trust this is the beginning of the emancipa,
tion of this country from her long depend.
Ience ON England for steel We aA assured
that fine razors, equal TO the best imported
have already been made Of this steel, from
ore once melted with anthracite alone, at
cost far below the present price of steel in
any market. If there be no mistake in this.
the production Of this steel is an event IN
our national growth of more real importance
than the battle of New Orleans. 1t will
| doubtless draw the attention of metallurgisis
generally TO the possibility of making steel
from fit ores or combinations Of ores at fax
less expense than the process has hitherto in
volved.- n. Y. Tribune.

Cleveland and Ohio City have voted fol
union by nearly 1000 majority.

@~The territories of Kansas and Nebras-
la are divided by the parallel of 40 deg. north
latitude, by the Nebraska bill, as it passed
the senate All that part of the U. S. terri
tory not vet embraced in any territorial gov
ernlnent, lying south of that parallel, is to
be called the territory of Kansas, and all
north of said parallel to be known as Ne
braska.
The governor and judges in each territory
are to be appointed by the president of the
United States, and the governor has the veto
power; but bill may be passed over the
veto by vote of two-thirds of both branch
es of the territorial legislature.
The governor and judges not being elected
by the people nor at all responsible to them,
we see no propriety in the pretence that the
question of slavery in the territories is left
TO the decision or control of the people. 1t
is not. individuals may introduce it, but
SC the people, would have no direct, lawful
means to prohibit its introduction, and but
poor prospect of the success of the indirect
and round about means granted them. The
most direct and immediate control of the
matter is placed under the care of officers
appointed by the federal government. This
being the fact, aside from other reasons, the
slavery restriction of the Missouri compro-
mise ought to be retained,
But above and beyond all minor conside-
rations of detail, stands the fact that the
Missouri compromise was entered into as a
solemn compact between the north and the
south, binding upon the good faith and hon
or of both, understood and declared to be ir-
repealable, to last FOREVER" The language
is, slavery shall be forever prohibited" Ii
is not simply question of slavery or free
dom, but it is also one of honor. What sense
of honor does any public man display, either
north Or south, who is willing to see such a
compact as this wantonly repealed and alb
fogated in defiance of the public faith and
the most emphatic demonstrations of the
public voice everywhere in the north? Is
this the love some men profess for labor and
the working man?

ANTI NEBRASKA VlcToRY IN COLUMBUS
The Charter election of Monday at the Cap

foy the Whig candidates. The entire Wbig
ticket, save one councilman, was elected
The Journal says that this is the direct effect
of the call Of the Locofoco Central Commit
Tee, few weeks since, for meeting which
should give a correct expression OF the
Democratic sentiment, at the center of the
State"
Mr.. Kem, member of that Committee,
who lent his name to the call, was on Mon
day candidate for Justice Of the Peace
Mr.. Juckoch was the Wing candidate, and
Nebraska necessarily became the question, re-
sulting in the defeat Of Mr.. Keim, by more
than 300 votes. In the 9Th Ward having a
heavy German vote, and usually giving go
LocoGoco majority, Mr.. Keim was beaten
ITO votes. One year since, parties in Co
lumbus, were "neck and neck The Jour
nal does not claim it a complete Whig vic
tory, for other elements were at work.
All the people ask, is to claim it as an
Anti-Nebraska victory, and just such vic
tory as awaits every contest, in which the
masses can get ga crack" at the Admins
tration monster.
SALE OF REAL ESTATE IN New YORK
For the seven months ending March 3lst
the sales at the Merchants Exchange, BY
auction, amounted to more than seven mil
lions and quarter, ($7 1886, ,970.) To ac,
complish this, nine auction houses and firms
are engaged, at the Exchange, from l2 to Z
o'clock, in selling to the highest bidder
Besides these public sales there are about
one hundred real estate agents in the city
engaged in selling at private sale. If the
amounts sold by them be half as much as
by public sale, the gross amount for the
seven months would exceed ten millions
and for year, at the same rate, eighteen anC
a half millions of dollars.
Brook yn as extended, contains about
100000 people, and as it grows about as fas
as New York, it may fairly be supposed tc
come up, in sales Of real estate, to more than
half the amount sold in that city. This
would give an aggregate of twenty-cigh
millions, to represent the amount paid fo
real estate at that great commercial mar
represented by the two cities. AS the fal
and winter are the favorite seasons for thi:
kind of business, it is fair to infer that the
amount above given would not be over the
mark, unless the sales at Jersey City and the
numerous 1ourishing suburbs above New
York Island, were brought into the estimate
The sales of real estate in and nea
Toledo, the past year, will amount to abou
seven hundred thousand dollars. The amour
of sales, probably for the year to come, vii
exceed million, ,~ Blade.
