Ge5y~ A man living in the First ward,
while making some experiments with
kerosene oil, on Tuesday evening, in
some manner became frightened and
ignited his cothes, which for time
threatened his death. Fortunately, he
was discovered, and saved from terri
bic fate. The fremen were soon on
the spot, but did not get the machines
to work. We understand that the man
who was burned, has arrived at the con
clusion that kerosene oil is very apt to
burn-especially in coming in contact

Bss% A new and still greater i'm
provement in the velocipede has made
its appearance in our city. The inven-
tor and patentee is Mr.. Friedrich Myers
who is engaged in business here, but q
resident of New York. As this veloci-
pede was made in this city, Elizabeth
has the credit OF having produced
the first practical one wheel velocipede.
1t is really practical and a complete
success. Now as we have said so much
of it Introductory we will describe this
one wheel wonder. and give an idea of
the varying prospects of the success Of
its inventor. About six months ago,
after having seen one Of the two wheel
velocipedes, and after having satisfied
himself of the success of his first under
taking he felt satisfied a one wheel
velocipede might be put up in practical
and tangible shape, and being acquaint-
ed in the Office of Mum and company,
New York, when after having made
known his idea and intention, he was
rewarded with their appreciation and in
their estimation prospect of success.
He then set diligently at work, and
soon produced his model, which he
sent to Washington Immediately, and
on the 9Th Of March there came letters
patent for new and useful improve
ment in velocipedes, leaving da tie
March End, 1869 On last Monday
from the machine shop Of Mr.. Spencer
Of this city came the first Of the said
velociRde and beautiful specimen Of
workmanship. 1t must be seen to be
appreciated. Tt will be ON exhibition
at ". L. Cooks iewelry establishment,
183 Broad street
Mr.. Meyers claims, among the adj
vantages over all other veloeipedes that
have yet made their appearance That
it is easier balanced when in motion, can
be propelled at much greater rate Of
speed with less exertion, and can be
made to pass over roads where the two
wheel cannot run. The seat is right
over and above the wheel, with. the
crank motion entirely dispensed with,
and in its stead d pleasant perpendicu-
lar motion, with two small wheels ro-
tating within a circle to counterbalance
front or side motion Yesterday was
the first day Of its exhibition, and hun
dreds congregated around the win
dow admiring its beautiful construction
and model, We advise all who desire
to see something really handsome to
look at it to-day as it win probably be
the last day for orr citizens to examine,
as large number Of anxious New
Workers are clanoring for it, to exhib-
it and ride it. The offer he has already
had for letter PATENTS almost fabulous.
