THE EYE! -

TTHE EIE!!-OF Hi TINE Or
81 CANS which beneflcent nature has endowed
man WITH the EYE ia the most important. most
complex, and most delicate in organization. From
its exposed situation. it is constantly liable dis
ease which assumes varied forms, and which, when
neglected maltreated. too frequently terminate
in blindness. 1t becomes, therefore, necessary tina
the practitioner shall be thoroughly conversan
not only with the structure of the eye ball and It
appendaSes, but that he shall have most accJrst
and perfect knowledge of all diseases which that
organ is liable.
In presenting this card for public consideration,
would observe that after an experience of ten
years in the principal oPthalmic hospitals of Eu-
rope, together with the advantage of large private
practice, prepared treat all diseases of the
Eye with that certainty of success which can only
be accomplished by years of experience.

knots an hour. On this first trip the crew con-
sisted of only half dozen men, while those
whom Captain Mckinney took to be passengers
might number twenty-five or thirty persons.
At Albany he says that Fulton went ashore,
telling them to let no one come on board, and
the boat was pushed planks length from the
shore. But the en- nyneer disobeyed soon as
Fulton was out of sight, and admitted people at
York shilling head. They came on bonrd
fast that in five minutes they took tWeICe
dollars. So many came at last that :hey were

4 SURVIVOR OF FuLToN's FIRST STEAMBOAT
CREw-A correspondent Of the New York Jour
nal of Commerce has obtained from Captain
Mckinney, of Deer Island, one of the Islands in
the Bay of Fundy, who was one of Fulton's
crew when that inventor tried his first steamer,
the Clcrmont, the following interesting account
of that craft and her first trip to Albany in 1907
The Captain is said to be man every way wor.
thy of credence:
Captain Mckinney says the boat was not one
hundred and forty feet long She was fiat bot
toned like a skiff sides straight like scow, stem
like a skifF. She was painted. The Clermont
drew twenty-five inches of water, and the rud
der went below the bottom of the boat 10
the rudder post two pieces of wood we're fastened.
These projected some four or five feet, and bolt
extended across Glem to prevent the ruddcr
from going down lower than it ought." In ad
dition, the rudder so arranged for shoai
water that it could be lifted to the surface if
necessary. Her wheelse xtended below the bot
tom of the boat. A fly wheel was attached to
the paddle wheel, having rim four inches WIDE
which Mr. Sackson, the engineer, told Captain
Mckinney 'waS to make the paddle wheel pass
the centre without jerk" "rhcre was big
bump" continued Captain Mckinney, lust in
side the boat, into which the Shaft fitted. 1t
could he unshipped with crowbar, and the rev.
olution Of one of wheels stopped ,chen they ccant.

rows of fire bricks which the boiler rested upon
These bricks were imported from England, and
cost six cents each. The boiler was of copper,
top arched; the bottom curved upward. The
boiler fel itself"
The Captains description Of some of the ina.
chinerv will be both amusing and instructive to
those who have watched the progress of thiS
branch of mechanics. His own language, used
in describing the apparatus for supplying water
to the boiler, will give far more graphic idea
than any we could hope to convey. "a grind
stoncIwas suspended from its center by wire in
side the boiler. a lead pipe ran from the boiler
to the water The top of the grindStOne was
level with the water in the boiler; as the water
boiled away, the stone would fall as the boiler
was filed up. the stone would rise. Machinery
working like n pump-handle connected this
prindstone with the cock of the water pipe out
Side of the boiler. AS the grindStone fell it
would open the cock wider, and the reverse,

left New York, according to his recollection,

She remained all night, and received passengers

morning she proceeded on her journey, and ar

The Haytien Revolution.

The revolution in the Island of St. Do.
mingo is complete. AS We expected and
predicted, Soloque has been compelled to
quit the Island. The populace of Port all
Prince was much exasperated against him,
and he was compelled To- seek the protec
ton Of The French Consulate. He after.
wards took refuge ON British man. of-war
whichconveyed him to Jamaica. A repub-
lie has been proclaimed at Port au Prince,
and Geffrard is President by acclamation Of
the populaee. 1t appears that Solouque
had latterly kept up his standing army up
on principles of the strictest economy
He paid his soldiers the munifcent sum Of
sixty cents month per man. AT the
time the revolt broke out, vessel was on
the way TO Cape Haytien, to take Two citi-
zens to Port au prince. They were des-
tined to confinement in the dungeons Of
Sabouc, for having spoken against. Solou-
que's government, and narrowly escaped
that horrible fate by the revolt. 1t is said
that seven hundred political prisoners have
perished in these dungeons within few
years. 1t is stated that the captives were
chained to the ground and left exposed TO
the flow of the tide, and to be dcvoured by
vermin. They generally perished in few
days, but one man survived for fifteen days,
when the guards despatched him to put an
end TO his misery. aaI3at
