duced number of novel thoughts as to the proper.
ties of light. Perhaps it would not be becoming to
express an opinion upon the subj ct ON which such
men as Newton. Brewster and Liebnitz have differ
ed. Whether light is a material thing, u compound
or simple substance. an emanation, an effect of
electricity or something else 10 hardly worth while
to puzzle ourselves about. One thing il certain,
that all coiors agree in the dark and that the nice
shades of difference In the forms which matter may
be made to assume can be seen TO the test advan-
tage at the DISPATCH JOB OFFICE, where human tai
ent has exhausted Itself in orturing type metal into
forms of elegance.

TRIAL OF cTEAM FIRE ENGiNks IN b0sToN-A trial Oh
steam fire engines in Boston, Tuesday, was attended
by large multitude. A dispatch says:
Four machines were present-the Philadelphia,
from Phladslphia; the Elisha Smith, of East Bos-
ton: the Lawrence, from Lawrence, Mass; andxhe
New Era, OF Boston. The Philadelphia made the
first trial, follows:-Filled tank of twenty-six
hundred gallons in eight minutes twenty nine
seconds, and threw q horizontal stream of one
hundred and sixty three feet and perpendicular
one of one hundred and ten feet raised steam in
eleven minutes and eight seconds. The length OF
the hose used by all was two hundred feet. The
Elisha Smith filed the tank In eight minutes
twenty five seconds, and threw horizontal stream
OF one hundred forty feet, and perpendicular one
of hundred and twenty-five feet; raised steam IN
thirteen minutes and tifty-one seconds. The Law
renee machine was withdrawn on account of
breaking a small bolt, soon after firing up The
proceedings then were adjourned till haIfpast two
O'Clock.
The afternoon trials commenced with that of
the New Era, Of Boston, which resulted a. fol-
lows :-Filled the tank in min. 32122 sec; played
a horizontal! stream 1856 feet, and Perpendicular
one 30 feet raised steam in Is min. q sec The
Lawrence then had trial, resulting as fclows:-
Filled the tank 10 min. IS ssc.; played hori
zontai stream 1541 feet, and perpendicular one
of 2l0 feet; raised steam in 1011 min The Seneca
Falls and Baltimore engines did not make their
appearance, and another Boston engine was not
present, being detained for repairr. The trials
excited great deal of interest and were witnessed
which they commenced working was 60 lbs, and
was not allowed 10 exceed 100 lbs. while in opera
ton. The prizes were $500 for the best, $500 for
the second best, and $500 for the third best. The
awards will be made TO morrow.
After the single trials were over, all four had
gran trial, drafting and playing long as their
owners desired; and the opinion freely expressed
that the Philadelphia engine is the BEST and will
undoubtedly secure the first prize. Other trials
will be had to morrow, but not for prizes. The
awards are the gifts Of the insurance companies
Of the city.

The AMERICAN COLONIZATION OF NAvAssE.--It has
been stated that commissioners from Kayti had
visited the little island of Navasse, and ordered
the little American colony from there getting cut
guano, to decamp. The Colonial Standard says:
It appears that the Haytien Commissioners
found in Navasse about fly persons, among whom
were forty free black and colorei men from Balti
more, engaged for period of thirty-six months
to dig the guano. They began their operations in
September, 1857. and have already shipped 1856
tons Of guano of the finest quality. Guano abounds
10 the island, for according to the smallest calcu-
lations of the Commissioners, there still remains
100000 tons, which by aud by, may be turned
to good ccount by the Haytien treasury. The
society had provided Mr.. Frazier of Baltimore,
With two four Founders and other .warlike NUM-
tions which he said were to be used If need be, as
a means OF protecting his person against his own
workinen, and for any ether unforeseen contin.
