THE SEA WAGON.

This is the name of an invention the cav
eat already ilei in the Patent Office, by Mr.
Fulton, Of Princeton, New Jersey, which is
to be, if ful,nothing less tlan a steam
ship pro"eled on rollers or wheels, that are
to 60 over the water instead of under it, The
wheels are four hollow cylinders. of boiler
iron, alr-tight, and forty feet in diameter-
These are to be strengthened by means of
compressed air, forced into them by an air
pump attached to the main engine. The in
ventor claims that at about forty-four reve-
buttons per minute his machine would be
propelled mile, and undoubtedly would tear
things and astonish even the sea monster.--
A letter writer says:
"He has on hand working model Of This
machine, eight feet in length with six-inch
cylinders, driven by small engine, that, for
diminutive pattern, is one of the swiftest.
1t was tried on the canal the other day, and
but Tor some intervening trees, would have
parted company with its proprietor forever
II pays no respectto sandbars or shadows &c
ing over either with equal facility"
We were just going to laugh little a,
Mr.. Fulton's inventions, but closed up quick.
ly, for we remembered just then how gen.
orally, snce on, time, his illustrious name.

by the wise.--Cin. Eng ,syy ..

CHANDLER ON PoPERy Hon. Mr.. Chsnd-
Ter, Of Philadelphia, a few Gays sinee,In Con-

Po7ery question and AmericaDism. The
Phladelpbia Sun reviews the speech, aud
closes as follows;
1--WE see no hing in the speech ei Mr..
Chandler TO shake our firm convictions that
Papucy is a desolating curse, and Its creed
antugoDis,ical to hunon rights and republ,-
can Institutions. Our convictions are those
of lifetime, they have grown with growth
and strengthened with our stren3lh--his do
not belong to his stock they ,,were engrafted
in his later years; ours, are native-born-his
hav. been naturalzedj ours are those which
drove the Pilgrim foreGuthers 10 Plymouth
Rock. the Cavaliers to Virginia and the HUI
genots 10 the Curolinas--his stooa on the
shores Of England and. continental Europe,
either to arrest their flight or to Immelote
them TO the Molock of Rome, ours are those
incu!csted by Christ, taught in the open BIZ
ble,and scattered through its blessed infuen-
ces-his are those propagated through the
terrors of the Auto de Fe, the GuilIotne and
the lnquisiton. May we not, then, with
Mr.. Chondler, and with equal solemnity, say
in conclusion with my hand on my heart,
.-pd my eyes towards heaven, with reverence
appeal to God to witness the truth Of the
assertions have made, with the conviction
of knowledge and the crcdiblity Of the testi-
mony have atduced from others"

the Crusader, well remarks:
"Whal! haze not the United States head
and hand enough to procure US excellent
wool, silks, and other kinds! Do we not see
every day articles manufactured in America
exposed TO public sight, with label purport-
ing to represent those goods as coming from
foreign countries, as if the tradesmen were
rs aned cf their national industry. 1t s
time that the people at large should think
more like Americans, and feel as Americans,
God has granted to this country all the ee-
men's TO become powerful and fourshng
nation, and if we begin TO see misery around
US it is much to be attributed to the practice
OF making America the grand emporium OF
foreign manufactures"
