in the scientific, mechanical and industrial
worlds, as TO please and instruct every one. II
the Mechanic or Artizan wishes to know the
best machine in use, or how to make any sub
stance employed in his business-if the House

is going on in the way ofimprovements-ifth the
Manufacturer wishes to keep posted with the

es to keep himself familiar with the progress
made in the chemical laboratory, or in the con-
struction Of telegraphs, steamships, railroads,
reapers, mowers, and thousand other machines
and appliances, both Of peace and war-all these

the higher branches of science and art.

The Sioux City, as her name implies, was

the especial supervision Of Captain Baker, who,
in her construction, has spared neither trouble
nor expense to make her an A, No. I Missouri
River Steamer, and one in all respects most adj
mrably adapted to the wants of tho River. She
will be found, rs regards capacity for business,
as well as the superiority of her passenger ac-
commodations, inferior to no boat in the trade;
and as such, Capt. Baker takes much pleasure
in presenting her to the favorable consideration
ofhis old friends and acquaintances, and the
public generally, hoping to receive at their
hands a continuance Of that generous patronage
for which he is indebted during series of years,
while in command of different boats in the river.
Shippers may rely upon having their freight
handled with the greatest care and dispatch;
and passengers are assured, in travelling upon
the Sioux City, of being made to feel always
quite at home. may b, %.

LOLA MONTEZ ON CALAMITY.

The third lecture of her course, on Galantry, was
rven by Lola Montez last evening in Hope Chapel to
h large an GuI epce as could stand within its walls.
Although there was masculine prepOnderance among
r hearers there many ladies present, and opera
lssses were in constant requisitOn. She says that
here is no such thing gaantry in England France
fenchmen are too tickle, and Englshmen too
tactical. The old gslsntry of the day of chivalry
as sted into Spain. She told great many pretty
ies Of galantry all the way back to the days of the
lnubedours, making them quite spiquant as prudence
Ltws These were mingled with staid moral maxms
u fond chidiDg of all approaches to failures in NOR
tsy. She extoled King Louis of Bavaria as gener-
s patron of art, poet Of refined and elegant TASTE
be classicist, aud above all gallant gentleman.
Be never kept hounds and in the matter of old coats
nd shoes he could beat the most celebrated Of Amer-
on editors. He was proud Of having worn coat
dAt years But he worshiped beauty like one of the
CaTroubsdours She had him stand in the street,
hauf, to converse with woman; and if beautiful, he
va sure to ask her portal, for his gallery. Lola
fthed her sketch Of the King BY severely ecturlng
those poor animal people who spoke harsh words of
"a attachment whose elevation they could not ap-
