A Monument to Robert Fulton.

A project is on foot for the erection Of a
monument to Robert Fulton, whose remains
now lie unmarked in Trinity churchyarl,
New York Some of the prime movers in
the matter have proposed to place the mon.
ument oa the spot where the remains now
rest, but correspondent of the Post objects
to this, suggesting Pollopels Island as the
most suitable place. lie says:
"Ihere are men yet living, who remember
the departure Of the Clermont, Fulton's ex'
pertinent boat, on breezy morning in Au.
gust, 1907, on her first trip. She crept eau.
tiously but surely against the ebbng tide
and gentle head wind along the Palisades,
through the Tappan sea and Haverstraw
bay, around the classic promontory Of Stony
Point and the boulder cape Of Dunderburg,
against the swift current of the Race at An
thonys Nose, amid the snuosiles of the
channel at West Point, and the wind eddies
OF the "Hils Of the Shatamuc," until, in full
triumph. she cleared the Storm King and off
picturesque Pollopell's Island, at the entrance
to calm and broad Newburg bay, at almost
sunset, the last doubt of success vanished
from the minds of the few incredulous pas
sengers, and the coronal Of Immortality was
placed upon the brow of the great inventor"

WHAT NEXT?

The latest achievement of American in.
vention is practicable steam carriage, o,
buggy, tor common roads. II is y Boston
product, and has been run Il. agricultural
lars. on race courses, and even the county
roads OF Massachusetts, for some months
past. The machine is now in this city. and
will he exhibited during this week, on Broad
way, IN the Central Park, and wherever else
there is chance TO test its operation and
speed. The owner also intends to match it
against the trotting horse General Butler at
the Fashion Race Course. and expects to
bea! that famous goer easily. The general
appearance of the vehicle is that of an orr
d'nary wagon, with double seat in front.
Just behind the seat are the boiler and en-.
gne, occupying about the same space as the
reservoir OF soda fountain. The furnac,
hangs within foot of the ground and, when
the door is open fresh current of air is adj.
Intted to the fuel while the carriape is in
motion. The motive power is applied to the
axle OF the hind wheels, by means Of cog
work. :he arrangement of which is similar
In the main to that of the city.car dummy
engine, but is different in several respects
The steering is done by crank, which de-
fleets the front wheels to the right or left. at
tie pleasure of the driver. With pressure
OF 20 lbs. to the inch, this engine will propel
the carriage with a two-horse power, at a
safe rate of travelling. Plank and macalam
wed roads offer the best opportunities for
speed, OF course; but any sandy, or muddy
or steep road, can be traversed by the steam
carriage as readily as by pair of horses.

ing, lasts seven or eight hours, when few
shovelfus OF coal suffice to repIenish it. A
sufficient quantity Of water could be easily
carried to supply steam for whole day: bat
the owner prefers to obtain water whenever
it Is wanted. The engine needs watering
about AS often as horse, and takes in about
the same quantity, and requires about the
same time for filling. The cost of running
Is estimated at one cent mile The cost of
the carriage and engine, the only specimens
ever made, were nearly $4,000; but the in
ventor says that he can make tho engines
and attach them for about $500 each. The
maximum speed of the machine is estimated
at a mile in a minute and halt, with
smooth road, and everything to favor
This is very ingenious and interesting
application of steam power Nobody sup.
poses that it will supersede horses anywhere;
because horses are things of beauty as well
AS OF utility, and are more manageable by
most persons than steam engine would be.
Besides, horse is no. apt to get out of Or
der like steam engine, in which one Sigh,
break or defect stops the motion. But there
are many persons who will take fancy to
the steam carriage because it is a curiosity,
and requires some little scientific and me-
chanicai skill to keep it gong, also because
1t is rather cheaper to stable and keep than
horse. There is plenty Of room, and
should be clear track everywhere, for both
horses aud steam enoines

A KISS UPON THE SLY.

Let poets sing the Eastern clmes,
And golden sunset hours;
OF shady hooks,
And babbling brooks,
or moon.lit orange bowers;
Yet still TO me,
More sweet shall be.
"a joy no wealth can buyD
A pair Of pouting cherry liys,
To kiss upon tic sly.
Oh, let them build their lofty rhyme
AS cen so e'er they mly;
But give me still
II so you will,
Another word 10 say;
Now here 10 all,
Tall. fat or small.
| VOW I'd rather die,
Than miss the bliss that's in q kiss
When taken on the sly.

The editor Of the Mount Holly Herald,
who is himself an honest and upright Demo-
crat, cannot understand why the Republicans
now make so much of John w. Forney,
since they in former days hold him up as a
great rogue and cheat. Well, that is just
the reason why they are so fond of him.

This includes killed, wounded and missing.
Such figures as these tell a terrible story of
suffering and bloodshed, to say nothing of
the miseries enlaled on families throughout
the land. Nor are these dead and disabled
men mere units to the human race whose
place can be filled by importa,ions from
abroad or other means. There are among
lhem many representatives Of tho highest
types of social enlightenment; men of cult
waited intellect, and who were killed as arli-
sans, professional men, and otherwise valuable
members of society. Probably never before
was there assembled on the battle field such
an aggregate Of worth, whether measured
according to the standard Of intellectual
capacity as we now sea gathered for conflic,
in The United States. Such battle as that
at Chickamanga abstracts from the country
in the loss of personnI from the respective
armies, that tor which hundreds of millions
OF dollars would he no equivalent, looking
at the subject merely as one of political
economy; while to surviving friends and
relatives the disaster is beyond the power OF
calculation. If more bo necessary for the
preservation Of the legacy bequeahel by
our foref;thers, all must be a cheerful sacr-
flee. not necessary, what monster is there
so lost to reason and humanity who could
wish the strife to continue either for objects
of personal emoument or to CRAFTY vim
dictive passion. Let the grandeur of this
strife and its losses lead to deep and solemn
thought on the methods Of bringing it to a
close. Journal Of Com.
