NTECHANICS, INVENTORS, AND MANU-
lVl fa~cturers.-TWelfth Year.-Prospectus Of the
SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN.
This work differs materially from other publ
cations being an Illustrated periodical, devoted
chiefly to the PRONUNCIATION of information relating
to the various Mechanic and Chemic Arts, Indus
trial Manufacturers, Agriculture, Patents, lnyen-
tions, Engineering, Millwork, and all interests
which the light Of practical science is calculated
to advance.
The Scientific American il printed once a week,
in convenient quarto form for binding, and pre-
sents an elegant typographical appearance. Ev-
cry number contains Eight Large Pages of read
ing, abundantly illustrated with original engra-
vings-all of them engraved expressly Tor this
publication.
Mechanics, Inventors, Engineers, Chemists,
Manufacturer, Agriculturists, and people Of ev-
cry profession in life, will find the Scientific A
merican to be Of great value in their respective
callings.
Reports of United States Patents granted are
also published every week, including official cop
les Of all the Patent claims. These claims ase
published in the Scientific American in advance
of all other papers.
Much might be added in this Prospectus, to
prove that the Scientific American is a publica-
ton which every Inventor, Mechanic, Artisan,
and Engineer in the United States should patron
ize; but the publication is SO thoroughly known
throughout the country that we refrain from oceu-
plying further space

Bank of East Tennessee SOmcthins
for Legislators TO think of.

After the suspension of this Bank, the cor
poratiOn as such. made an ASS gnment 10 Dr.
j. G.. NJ. Ramsey and Maj. 4. &. Lyon, for the
benefit of the bill holders and other creditors
of the Bank; at the same time, the principal
stakeholder assigned to the same trustees all
his property for the same purpose Last week
we announced that the Legislature by joint
resolution of the two Houses. had directed
the Attorney General to institute such pro-
ceedings as would result in a Judicial decree,
affirming forfeiture and abrogation of the
charter of the Bank. 1t did not then occur
TO us. that by such u proceeding the end con-
templatcd by the Legislature may be wholly
defeated; that is if their purpose be to add
To- the value of the notes still i'll the hands Of
the people.
Upon the dissolution Of corporation, its
real estate reverts to the grantor by whom it
has been conveyed, while the personality goes
to the State. This is unquestionably the rule
of law applicable to corporations, whose fran
chses and privileges cease by reason of the
expiration of the time for which they were to
exist, and we know of no principle OF law
which changes the rule in the case of the dis
solution of a corporation, by Judicial de-
cree of forfeiture. In the case of the Bank of
East Tennessee, there is no provision in the
charter which directs that in such an event,
the real estate and personally owned by the
corporation are to be appropriated, otherwise
than as the general law directs. If then it is
granted, that the charter of the Bank of East
Tennessee has been violated and the Supreme
Court shall abrogate and annul it, the ques-
ton arises, will not all the asst Is in the hands
of the assignees pass from them by operation
of law; the real estate to the grantOr and the
personal effects to the State? If this should
be the operation of the law applicable to
such a case, it is manifest, that upon a decree
or order of forfeiture by the Court, there will
no longer remain any hope TO the note holder
or other creditor of realizing payment i'll
whole or part.-Kn0ruiHe Citizen.

The Lecompton Constitution--the
Chances.

The Black Republicans and their allies are
felicitating themselves upon their victory in
the House of Representatives, on the question
to refer the Presidents Lecompton message
to special committee with instructions to in
vestigate certain subjects connected with al
fairs in the Territory of Kansas. They be-
lieve that delay will be the effect, and that
delay may defeat the admission of Kansas as
slave State. But, We suspect, they are
reckoning without their host The Senate
havs referred the subject to the Committee
on Territories, and we may expect from them
an early report, with bill admitting Kansas
as slave State. The bill will pass without IN
necessary delay, and be sent to the House,
where it will be taken up and acted u on, We
trust, without regard to the special commit
tee We are firm in the faith that the result
will be favorable there-that Kansas will be
admitted with the Lecompton Constitution.
A friend at Washington who IL well posted,
writes TO us under date OF the 9Th inst, after
the vote referring the message to a special
committee had been taken, as follows
II now feel more sanguine than heretofore
that Kansas wiH be admitted lrah ths Leoogsp<oa
Consolidation. There are believed To be four or
noe members from ae North seho poted 10 ra,se bse
Special C6nmsttee eho sriH poe for the admission.
Ny belief is that Kansas will be brought into
the Union as a slave State, and that she will
continue q slave State in the Union"
Let the South but be true TO herself, aud
she will not be made to feel that the day OF
her glory has departed.

The Lecompton Constitution.

In the debate on the 10th inst, in the House
or REPRESENTATIVES, the Bell resolutions being
under consideration, Mr.. VAUGHN defined his
position on the admission of Kansas as fol-
lows:
81 am in favor of the admission of Kansas
as slave State, and will, under all circum-
stances stand to the rights of the South but
desire further light upon this subject. have
full confidence that our Senators will protect
the interest of the South, and am unwilling
to instruct them, with the limited means of
information before me. There is one thing
certain, however, will never prove recreant
10 Southern rights and Southern institutions.
do not desire TO be understood as opposing
the admission of Kansas under the Lecomp-
ton constitution, but oppose attaching the
amendment to the Bell resolutions"
Messrs. DAVE and EWING said they concur
red with Mr.. VAUGHN and adopted his remarks
as their own. These gentlemen are in favor
of the admission of Kansas under the Lee
compton constitution, but were opposed to
giving instructions.

sion about twenty years ago, and devoted
himself to railroad construction, in which
business he became most eminent. His first
important service was upon the western di-
vision of our own Western railroad; which
being finished, he became the engineer and
constructor of the Connecticut River railroad.
With other minor enterprises Intervening
he engaged some ten years since upon his great
work the Mobile and Ohio railroad, TO which
he devoted himself for six or eight years with
an enthusiasm and labor that impaired his
constitution to a degree that both alarmed
his friends and himself.
The whole line of the road. from the Ohio
river through Kentucky, Tennessee, MISSISSIPPI
pi and Alabama, was surveyed and iocated
under his personal direction, much oft put I'M
der contract. about 100 miles built entirely and
many more partially constructed. He labored
also as the financial agent of the company,
procuring subscriptions 10 the stock, leading In
a successful effort to obtain heavy grant OF
land of Congress, and going abroad twice 10
interest European capitalists in the enterprise.
I'm consequences of a change in the direction,
and a controversy with some OF the directors,
Capt. Oh lde tired from the management OF
the road about year and a halt ago, but so
far as the restricted finances of the company
have permitted, the work has been continued
after his plans, and his policy has been respec-
ted in consultations. Within the last SIX
months he has been busy as the head of
commission ofengineers appointed to examine
Montreal harbor.
Captain Childe, was twice married; first to
Laura Dwight, daughter of the late James
Dwight of this city, who with her eldest
daughter persisted on the Inflated Arctic,
while returning from Europe, in 1854; and
second, about a year since, to daughter OF
Mark Healey of Boston, who with son less
than three weeks old, and the second daughter
by his first marriage, survives. His age was
81 years, and his fatal disease consumption,
though his final illn, 81 had the development of
a fever.
