The New FLYING Machine.

We find the following statement in the Patrie
Tho Academy of Sciences is n good deal nte-
rested 10y the invention OF flung machine by
Don Diego de Snlamancha. With this machine
Don Diego's daughter, Rosaura rose in the air
some time ago at Madrid. to the great astonish-
ment oi the Spannrds, who were but little ac-
cnstomed 10 this sort of miracle. Don Diego do
Saamanca and his daughter are about to arrive
al Paris To show the effects of his marvellous in
v'ntlon. The machine is very simple; it con-
slsts M ease two feet long, and one foot wide,
adapted To band Of leather round the waist,
huchi"d behnd. Tho two iron rods fastened to
the ease support small piece of wood, on which
the feet reposc. The case contains n simple and
ingenious mechanism, similar to that employed to
set an antannton III motion. The mechanism is
worked hy means Il II handle. 1t sets in work
two large wings ten feet lnng, made Of very thin
oaoochoue, covered with feathers and the wings
mny be 50 worked rs to produce vertical, perpen-
diculnr, or horizontal flying. The number of
turns given the handle determines the height Ia
which 1t Is desired 10 go. The handle has to he
turned every quarter of lenguo to regulate the
distance the operation of turning lasts n minute.
Horizontal living Is the most difficult; the wings
beat the air like the of II boat, or rather as
the feet OF II swnn when it swims BY means of
ihis curious machine, man can 20 almost ns
rapidly os II carrier pigeon-irom the uotelde-
Vile to the Arc dc Triomphe de l'Etolc, in eight
minutes and in half an hour to Versailles. The
experiments, which will be made in Pari- will be
ON small soa!e, and the tlighs of Don Diego will
not extend beyond the department of the Seine;
but AT a Inter period he proposes to go to Lyons,
to bordeaux, Toulouse, Marseos, and Tours,
and To take tho lines of railway. He pretends
thnt he can travel quicker than by rail. The
price ot ehch machine will not exceed .200f. for
men, .O00i. for women. If the experiment sue
creds, Don Diego will take out patent, and will
make the eale Of the machines branch of COM
mcrcc. Although greatly asionished at this new
invention, several members of the academy have
pointed out the Inconvenience of bringing it into
general use. In point of faot, there will be no
security for any one, if by the aid of such ma,
chin" all our usages and customs be overhrown
and if mnlotactors can fly on the roofs of houses.
afterwards got into apartments and commit all
sorts OF deprodations. 1t will be very curious TO
see policemen in France or England pursuing
thieves IN tho air in order to lock them up ON
eorth. II appears that 1855 promises all sorts
of mnryrls.

TlE PRIVATE LIBRARIES OF MESsRs. CnOATE
ANp EVERETT. The Boston correspondent of
the New York journal of Cnmmcrcc, in the
course Of lis last lotter, affords the following
glimpse into the private libraries of thonte and
Everett
The library If the Hon. Rufus thoate in
cudug law books, contains 1,nua volumes, and
tho figures by no means gives nm den of the
wealth of the collection. OF the ahayo, 800 nro
at IN law Office, mostly law backs those of
daily reference I lie remaining $500 line all
rooms of the second story of his house. These
unple rooms arc his library. We leave il for
those moro familiar with such matters to decide
how Mr. Ghoatc has been able To- got entire pos
session of these valuable sleeping chambers ex.
cusiyry for his inaunnto and yet animate guests
such as Homer, Cicero, Pindnr, and the like. 1t
Is shId there have been many domestic compro-
misses on subjects Of this kind, which, If given to
the world, would be far moro entertaining, # thoy
would not make much noise, rs the compro-
misc of 1850. Mr.. Choate is particularly rich
in thr Latt aud Greek classics, which he is un-
dcrstapd to have passion for aud to read dnily

history ho is pretty rich. Mr.. Eycrctts is the
fullest on the laws of nations though he has
quite collection He has about all on law that
law yer ef his standing should have and n fair
collection of scientific works, including Baylos
Dictionary i'll French, Erasmus Lipsius, &c.-
Tlcn he is rich in encyclopedias, and particular
ly in American history. Other rarities for pri-
vate library are Rymer's FoederaSomers' Tracts,
and Du Changes Gosfarium. This library of
which you hovc glimpse with pen and ink, is
perfectly arranged by subjects. The rooms have
free and easy appearance that Is very attractive
W. warnall lovers Of books, that if they would
not run into the temptation of breaking the tenth
commandment, they had better keep ont of this
library Mr. Choate thinks he should have died
bef,re this had il not been for his library. This
reminds us that library has been named a mcdl-
Gin. forthe mind. and of the king of Egypt who
according to Diodorns, Sculus had inscribed O.
yer his library door Greek words, which English
ed, are "'rho Dispensary for the Soul"
