HE REAL INVENTOR OF TIE
STEAMBoAT.-From advance sheets o:
Lloyds forthcoming Steamboat Direc
tory, We see that he gives the credit Of
the invention of the steamboat to John
Fitch, and not to Robert Fulton. He
produces good authority to sustain him
in his sssertions, and the friends of
Fitch will no doubt be glad to find JUS
tice will be done in this work. 1t ap-
pears that Fitch invented and made a
successful trip with his steamboat at
Philadelphia in 1856, which averaged
nearly eight miles an hour, and that
afterwards, while in Paris, trying to
obtain aid from the French govern
ment to further his objects, he met
Robert Fulton, who was there with his
submarine battery for blowing up ships;
and Fulton, by pretending to take
great interest in John Fitch, obtained
plans and drawings of his steamboat by
giving him some milk and water letters
to various persons. Poor Fitch re-
malned in Europe some time, trying to
get capitalists to advance him funds to
prosecute his great invention, but with
out success. They called him crazy,
little dreaming of the prize they were
losing. Meantime, Robert Fulton re-
turned to New York, and obtaining
funds from Chancellor Livingston,
built the steamer "Clermont,'' on the
North River, in 1906, using in her one
Of Watts steam engines, ordered from
England. This was fully twenty years
after John Fitch had demonstrated the
practicability Of stemming the mighty
Mississippi with the steamboat. In
1911, Robert Fulton and Livingston
claimed the exclusive privilege of navi-
eating the Ohio and Mississippi by
steam. Several boats were thus tied
up, but at the great trial in New York,
it was satisfactorily and conclusively
proved that Robert Fulton was not the
inventor of the steamboat, but to John
Fitch belonged the high honor of first
moving in this wonderful discovery

ENGLISH AND AMEICAN LADIES

ENGLISH AND AMEICAN LADIES'
Mr.. Golden, in his speech at the
Lord Mayors dinner, given in honor
of Mr.. Buchanan, said that the great
est difference between England and
America consisted in this that q
great deal more care was taken of the
ladies in America than in England,
and great deal less care of the men.
He said:
eff the respect shown to the fair
sex was true criterion for estimating
the chivalry of any country, certainly
in the present age the palm must be
conceded to America in regard to that
amiable quality. In illustration of
this American characteristic, he might
mention that when in Boston, on the
anniversary of the American declara-
tion of Independence, he was anxious
to gain admission to a church where
one of their most distinguished orators
was to deliver an address appropriate
to the occasion. The beadle who
guarded the door steadfastly refused
him access until the corporation had
arrived; and on his remarking, after
waiting some time, that other persons
were being admitted while he was ex-
cluded, the beadle naively replied,
'Oh! but these gentlemen have ladies
with them and you have none but if
you bring a lady with you | will let
you in also"

MemOries-To nly Sister.
BY MONADNOCK.

Do you remember, my sister,
Our home in the - Old Granite State
In the days ere our family ci' Gle,
Was ruthlessly broken by fate,
Do you remember ia spring time,
The carpet of beautiful green. [house.
That was spread out before the old farm
While snow on the hill. tops was seen
Do you remember our rambles,
After sweet-scented, modest May flowers,
That nestled in green pas ure hillocks,
And smiled in the warm April showers?
Do you remember the garden,
And apple trees branching and strong,
Where the beautiful red breasted robins
Built their nests singing all the day long
Do you remember, dear sister,
The Bible that lay on the stand,
And how we all knelt down together
And prayed in q family band;
Do you remember, one evening,
How we knelt by our fathers bedside,
How kindly and fondly he blessed us
Before he so peacefully died
These remembrances haunt me, my sis
In the wales of this far off gold land, tier
And memory oft brings together
The {0Ued ones and lost of our band.

a Tale of a Donkey.
ACT L.

Sterne sentimentalized over a dead
donkey, the most brilliant of French
writers perpetrated romance on the
same subject, Titania fell in love with
one of the long-eared, and why should
not we, borrowing our facts from ju-
dlcial report in a London journal,
weave the tale of donkey in present
able shape!
Fourteen years ago, then, there
dwelt IN the neighborhood of Reading,
England, a charming little fairy, the
daughter of farmer. As a birthday
present, the honest yeoman gave his
child an infant donkey. 1t was rear
ed with tenderness, and its asinine
beauty, daily developed, richly re-
warded the care of its young mistress.
As it grew up, chaise and harness
were purchased for it, and in this
equipage Mrs. Lydia Wheatly (the
name Of the fair owner) used to drive
about the country and visit her friends.
Miss Milford, the distinguished au-
thoress, pronounced the animal "a
perfect love Of donkey" and liter
ary gentleman fell into tears when he
saw it, because the creature reminded
him SO strangely Of departed friend.
Thus loved and celebrated, the ami
NAL led an elysian life, and promised
to attain good old age, envied by its
kindred that starved upon the common
lands, Or were the property of brutal
pedlers, who walloped them when they
wouldn't 60. But alas! the fairest
hopes are subject to blight in this
world Of chance and change. Moore's
yonng lady was very unsuccessful in
raising gazelles, and Miss WheatIy
was equally unsuccessful in the dom
key line. One morning the donkey's
paddock was empty. There was the
grass trampled BY its tiny hoofS; there
was the board fence which had rever-
berated its musical mathis and sere-
nades, sweet as the summer melody of
falling waters-but the donkey had
vanished. We cannot paint the ago
ny of the bereaved mistress-it was
beyond the reach of art. Breathe
mournfully, thou German flute Draw
it mildly, thou big base-viol!-low,
whispering, melancholy music-slow-
ly, slowly, slowly-let the act-drop
descend!

WONDERFUL SAGACIrY OF A Doc.

WONDERFUL SAGACIrY OF Doc.
One of the most astonishing instances
of the sagaeity of the dog transpired
this morning, which ever came to our
knowledge. The Messrs. Staude, to-
baeeonists, No.35 Congress street, clo-
sed their store last evening. leaving
their favorite Newfoundland inside
This morning, on opening the store,
the floor in the back room was found
to be on fire, and the dog was laboring
with his forefeet and mouth trying to
subdue it. A pail of water, which
stood in the room, had been poured
down the hole. The faithful animal
had so successfully colnbated the fire,
as to prevent its spreading beyond a
spot two or three feet square. How
long the noble fellow had stood sentinel
and fought down the advancing flames
can only be conjectured-it must have
been several hours. His feet. legs and
mouth were badly uurned, and it is
feared he is seriously injured internal
ly by inAaling the hot air. He refuses
food, and is apparently in much pain.
We trust the sagaciOus and faithful
creature is not dangerously injured
This is the same dog that discovered
the man Lally on the ice some time
since. He is worth bis weight in gold,
and may safely be pronounced the no
blest of his race.-Tyoy Times.

IMMENSELY OF THE UNIvERsE.-As
a proof of what vast book the visible
heavens are, and also the diligence of
the student, man, in turning over its
leaves, DR.. Nichol, in his work desert
biDg the magnitude of Lord Roses
telescope, says that Lord Rosse has
looked into space distance so incon-
ceivable, that light, which travels at
the rate of 100000 miles in one Sec
ond, would require period of ESQ.,
100000 of solar years, each year con-
tanning 32,000,000 of seconds, to pass
the intervening gulf between this earth
and the remotest point to which this
telescope has reached. How utterly
unable is the mind to grasp even
fraction of this immense period. To
conceive the passing events of hun
dred thousand years only, is an impos
sibility, to say nothing of millions and
hundreds of millions Of years.
