A VALUABLE EMPRovEMENT.-The Mas
sachusetts railroads seem to have at last
realized what has long been sought-a coal
burning locomotive, which consumes all the
gas it distils, saves more than half the ex-
pense for fuel, manifests no disposition to
burn out her fre-box, and is as reliable as
any wood engine for a uniform pressure of
steam, at any desirable amount. The
Railway Times of Boston says there is no
mistake in the matter, and that the woods
may now grow, for the coai burning prob
lem is solved. If SO, we shall hear more
about it.

The AMERICAN CAMELs.-The camels
first imported, are, it is reported, employed
with tolerable success in transporting sup
plies between San Antonio and Camp Yer
do, Texas. Three little ones were born in
March, and five or six more births are ex-
pected. The principal remaining point is
the character ofthe stock that may be pro-
duced. The officers in charge are however,
sanguine that it will fully equal that of
the parent stock, and may, by proper at
teption, be more highly developed.
