invention. 1t is composed of two floats,
resembling large snow.shses, standing par
allel to each other, separated about three
feet and held in position by rods, and be-
tween these is a propclling wheel about a
yard in.diamcter, with paddles eight inches
long and four wide. Then behind and OH
a level with the top of the wheels saddle
for the driver, and to the wheel on each
nrc driving cranks for the feet. The wheel
and seat are so covered as to prevent the
navigator getting wet. Over the wheel
is fixed movable handle, to the ends Of
which arc attached tiller lines for the rud-
dor. with ono of these it is said that q
man may easily outrun the fastest row.

EMBOLDENED by SUCCEss:-Success

EMpoLpENED by SuccEss-Success
at the recent election has made the Radi-
cal party bold. What they vehemcntly
denied prior to November 3D., they now ad-
init, if not in words, by acts. As case in
point, We refer to the negro and Chinese
features of the grand celebration of Satur-
day evening. "Chcap and docilc' coolies,
of course by invitation, with notices and
banners, marched in line during the even
ing. The display opened the eyes ofmany
Of the "whitc trash" who had Joined in
the festivities of the occasion. They de-
clarcd that they would not go with any
party that put Cinnamon on an equality
with white men. But their disaprroba-
ton of the act comes too late. After vot-
ing with and sustaining the party that has
proclaimed for the universal brotherhood
Of man." they cannot rightfully complain
if they find themselves face to face with
the Celcstials in the struggle of life and
bread. In the same procession VIC observed
a.banncr on which was cmblazoned the
words, NEGRO Social Equality" Thus it
will be seen that the Radicals have COM
nienccd to educate the public mind up to
the point Of negro and Chinese equality, as
advanced by Gorham and others of their
ltaders-Sa0an anento Reporter.

lne school building was new and clean, and
that was the appearance of the scholars also,
and, without making invidious distinctions as to
the merits OF the various teachers, all of whom
wen deserved the praises bestowed by the

POLITICAL CHIT-CHAT.-Iti is now generally
conceded that the race for the Tax Collector

course favoring the latter. The School Guardi-
ans appear to shake i'm their boots from the tenor
of their addresses to the school pupils within
the past few days, but with the action of the last
Council before them the present Council can
hardly fail to continue by unanimous resolution
the old Board, as conducive to the best interests
