DEATH OF A DISTINGUISHED INVENTOR
Among our recent notices of deaths we find
that of Walter Hunt. For more than forty
years he has been known as an experimenter
in the arts. Whether in mechanical move
ments, chemistry, electricity, or metallic
compositions, he was always at home; and
probably in all, he has tried more expert
ments than any other inventor. He origin.
ated the sewing machine, spinning flax by
machinery, the first nail machine, the first
machine for cutting brads by one operation
placing plugs in leather for soles of boots and
shoes, method Of constructing docks by
concrete, preparing paper pulp so as to form
| boxes by one operation, the vapor baths, the
ball known as the Minnie bali for the rifle
and many improvements in fire arms, print
ing by rollers instead of balls, and so many
other things our space will not admit of de-
tails. Walter Hunt, like most inventors, dc.
voted his life to his friends rather than to
himself; was liberal to a fault, and none
knew but to love him; he struggled with that
monster, the dollar, all his life, in homes OF
mastering yet his numberless experiments
kept him always poor. Notwithstanding his
| life of exertion has benefited the whole
world-he dies, as most inventors do, at the
very moment he anticipated success. He,
however, lived to the ripe age of So years, in
full vigOr until the last four days Of his life.

The PosT-oFrIcE STAMP FRAuDs.-with
reference to paragraph from the New York
Herald, which appeared in the Press few
days since, the following from the Philadelphia
North American is deserving of perusaI: .''
at is hardly necessary to say, that the
statement professedly sent from hero, but man.
itestly fabricated in New York, alleging that
the postal revenues are defrauded a million of
dollars annually.by forged or false stamps, is
utterly unfoundod. The source Of the story
was sufficient of itself to brand it with false
hood. No information of any such frauds has
reached the Department. Attempts may be
made occasionally to use stamps which are i'm
perfectly Cancelled, but the success is so limited
as hardly to be worthy of notice, and has
never been referred to in report of the Post
master General. 1t might be asserted with
confidence, that the Department loses more
revenue by an abuse of the franlSing privilege
for any single day during the session of Con-
gress, than throughout the whole year from the
cause alleged. The fabrication is simply ride
ulous, and quite worthy the enterprsing genius
which conceived it." tr..SO.

STEAM FIRE ENGINES AT LoUIsvILLE.-The
following is from the Louisville Courier of
Monday, 18th:
Another of these invaluable ertinguishers
was received from Cincinnati on Saturday.
This makes the fourth one now owned and in
use in the city. When we have about two
more of the \" same sort" and the water
works finished and in use, we see no reason
why house should burn up. We hope soon
to hear of a reduction in the rates charged
by the underwriters for insuring houses.
Whatever may have been the case in the old
fogy days Of hand fire engines and volun-
teer fire department, with the present facili-
ties for extinguishing fires, and the small
amount Of damage and loss by burnings
during the last twelve months, as shown by
the annual report of the operations of the
fire department, the present rates charged by
insurance companies are gross outrage, and
without the shade of shadow of justifca-
tion.

ARMED INTERvENTION.-Thoug Great Bri-
tain and Prussia did not succeed in preventing
hostiltics from breaking out between Austria
on the one hand, and the French and Sardin-
ians on the other, almost every mail from Eu.
rope brings rumors that both those Govern
ments still cherish the expectation of being
able to intervene to bring those hostilities to a
close. We put no great faith in these rumors;
the governments that could not prevent the
war are not very likely to arrest it before it has
run its course; but one thing is certain: sue
cessful Intervention between combatants re-
quires something moro than diplomatic notes
To be listened to, amid the din of arms, the
peace makers must themselves be armed, able
to second their representations and remon :
strances, if not otherwise regarded, by little
gentle compulsion. 1t is doubtless wish to
place themselves in a position to be listened to
with respect, as well prudent forecast of self
defense, that has led Great Britain to man heI
navy and organize volunteer riaemen, and has
caused Prussia to put her army on war foot,

ANCIENT MANUSCRIPT OF THE BIBLE.-Pro-
fossor Tischendorf, Of Loipsic, has discovered
at Cairo manuscript Of the Bible, from the
fourth century-that is, as old as the famous
Vatican MSS, which has recently made Sc
much noise. This, unless Tschendorf is mis-
taken in its value, will partly deprive the one
in Rome of the honor in which it has hitherto
boon held as the oldest and most precious.
The newly found volume consists of three
hundred and forty-fve parchment leaves, as
large as can be made at the rate of two to q
gazello skin, and contains most of the Proph-
cts, the Psalter, the book of job, Jesus son OF
Sirach, Wisdom of Solomon, and other of the
Old Testament Apocryphal books; but tho
most important fact is that it contains the New
Testament entire.
Beside this, tho Professor has found an un,
doubtedly authentic and complete MSS. of the
Epistle of Barnabas, and similar one 'uol
dem Htrten des HermeS," both belonging to the
second century, and originally ranking with
the other books of the New Testament in tho
estimation of the early christians. Tischen-
dorf hopes to be allowed to publish these three
manuscripts Immediately.
