successful Road steamer.

1t seems that the plan of covering the
driving wheels of steam omnibus With u
thick tire of india-rubber has been found
to obviate some Of the most serious objec-
tions to using steam for locomotion on
common roads, and steam wagons with
this improvement are now manufactured in
England. The London Mechanic Maga-
zine thus notices the operation of this new
locomotive: On Saturday last there was
seen on the streets Of Leith a wonderful
team of mechanism. 1t consisted of a ten.
horse power road steamer, with two com.
panons of equal size in tow to the docks
for shlpmeut To those who have been in
the habit Of seeing heavy machinery drag
ged along by some sixteen or eighteen hor
ses, and who have witnessed the kicking
planging, swearing, and uproar, which in
variably accompany such undertakings, i,
must have been pleasant to observe the qui
ct smile OF the drivers face as he silentl,
picked his way along the streets. AL

so smoothly and so easily that it did not of.
fer single precedent for description. All
that can be said of it is, that it was the
simplest performance in the world. Tn,
road. d.steamer, which was acting as tug to
its two mates, was exhibiting its maiden ei-
forts, as it had only just been completed
and had never been out before. 1t is a ten
horse power engine, nominal, but can de-
velop up to thirty. horse power Its weight
on the road is from eight to ten tons. The
diameter Of the wheels is six feet; the
breadth of the India rubber the is Is inch

working under this patent have already re-
ceived numerous orders for the new road

A Wedding Sixty Years Since.

Very grand wedding. Plenty of barouch.
es and bridesmaids, cal ke and favors, kissing
aud crying. The bride, indeed, has amused
herself with the last mentioned recreation
for whole week, and having, moreover,
accumulated on her person so much tinery
in the shape of lace hounces, spencers, bon.
nets, wells, and scarfs, that she looked as if
by mistake she had put On two wedding
dresses instead of one, was by many de.
grees the greatest fright I ever saw in my
life. Indeed, between crying and blusEinE,
brides and bridesmaids, too, do generally
look strange figures; l am sure we did:

THE ECUMENlCAL COUNCIL,
Terrible Scene In the Council.
DishOR SsressnayeS DeGeaAeA
by swords ON His Exit.

The Roman correspondent of Ito
Cologue Gazette, gives an animated de.
seripsion Of the scene in the Ecumenical
Council on the I'D Of March, when Bishop
Strossmay' made his speech against that
part Of the Schemade Eide which ascribes
all modern errors to the Pro,estants. The
Bishop observed that It 10 unreasonable 10
describe Professionalism as the source Of
atheism, pantheism, and materialism, Se-
that many eminent Protestants, such ~
Leibnitz and Guizot, have comba,ed there
doctrines. Here the Bishop WAS forced 70
stop by loud protests from all parts of tho
Council, but he went on when the clsmor
had ceased. There are many sincere peo-
pie, he said, among the Protcs stants Of
France, England, America, Germany, and
his own diocese, who err bona tide. This
raised another storm, which was only ap.
peased by the intervention Of Cardinal Ca
palti. But when the Bishop began to
touch on the question whether the dogmas
| should be. passed by majority of votes Or
only, as in former Councils, when all The
members are unanimous, the Council lost
all patience. Cries Of "Here.icus Hare
ticus!" and "Damnamns eum" were
heard on all sides. One Bishop excl. imed,
at ego non dam,lo eum," upon which 9TH
ers repeated, "Damnamus," and shouted to
the speaker, "IM es Protestans! taceas!
ab ambone descendas Ultimately Bishop
Strossmayer was compelL d to leave tho tri.

The noise was SO great that it was heard
in the ante-rooms, and the bishops mili-
tary servant drew his sword and endeavos-
ed to force his way into the council cham.

Commenting on the above, the New

mayer, of Hungary, had uttered some
plain, unwholesome truths, which it was
good for him to say and good for the Coun.
Gil to hear. Ali of sudden when he
touched a sore point, he was greeted with
the cries "Heretic! Hereto! We condemn
him." One solitary voice was raised in
the Bishops fayor-"I do not condemn
him. On this the shout became general,
"Damnamus-we do condemn him." "You
are Protestant. Shut up! Come down
from the tribune" From the tribune be
descended, and, protected BY the flaming
sword Of his military servant, he esca ped

In the winter of 1868, l received note

Warning to Husbands.

The great want Of women at present is
money-money for their personal wants,
apd money to carry out their plans. pro-
pose that they shall earn, that they shall
consider it as honorable TO work for money
as for board. and demand fer them equal
pay for equal work. demand that the
bearing and rearing of children. the most
exciting of employments, and involving the
most terrible risks, shall be the best paid
work in the world, and husbands shall treat
their wives with at least rs much consider
alton, and acknowledge them entitled to ss
much money as wet nurses.
The meaning Of this is, that wives ara
abou, to strike for greenbacks; so much for
every baby born. No greenbacks, no more
sons and DAM ughters. No greenbacks, no
more population; no more boys to carry on
the great enterprises Of the age. The

If,he question of woman Suffrage" be
great one, we boldly aver that never since
the creation has great question been dis
cussed in such small way, snd that too
upon either side. In Chicago, the Rev. DR..
Hatfield, arguing in his pulpit against the
reform, declares That as many men suffer
from the effects Of woman's tongue as VIC.
men suffer from drunken usbands." Beg.
ging pardon of the Reverend Doctor, We ask
leave to say that this does not touch Il .
question at all and, moreover, it cannot,
as matter of TACT, be true. Not only have
the shrewish propensities Of women been
greatly exaggerated, bu. sufferers can run
away from the shrill lecture, or sleep in the
barn. But where is the wife of drunken

MAxIMs FOR CITY MERCHANTS.-A
short advertisement four times is better
than very long one once. Drag is a
GOOD dog, but Holdtast is better"
Don't fear to have a small advertise
ment by the side Of large competing
one. The big one can't eat it up.
4 prominent advertisement once or
twice will be effective, if followed up
by a steady card giving your business
and address.
If business admits Of it, several small
advertisements, with your name repeat
ed every time, will avail more than the
same collected, with your name in only
once.
Don't take down your sign in dull
times. People read newspapers all
times Of the year.
There is no instance on record of a
well-sustaned system of judicious adj
vertising failing Of success.
When people see a man advertise,
they know he is a! business man, and
and his advertising proclaims that he
is not above business, but anxious to
do it.

Prof Bagar, the popular teacher of

the music beautiful and the enjoyment
unbounded. We declare, to see the
gathering of youth and beauty there
made us feel young again, and it was
with difficulty that we RETAINED from
touching the light fantastic" ourself
though the trained elephants dancing
is nothing to ours. Prof Bagar has
acquired high reputation here as a
teacher, and such parties as that given
last night will make him still more
popular with both scholar and parent.

who wrong. 1t seems that Henry Fair

some one, who it was was not so clear,

John Stevenmyer was found in Cen
tire Wheeling, Keeling to and fro like a
giant of the forest in a mighty hurri-
cane. Yea, even as the pine tops sway

pine top in the breezy John. One dol
lar and costs was the sum Of it. Which
he paid the ducats.
Edward Mathew was terribly tornup
by trouble. Desperate deeds danced
distinctive on his dazed vision. He
thought to end his life, or for a while
forget his sorrows, so he sought the
flowing bowl. Consolation he drained
from the bottle. He got drunk. Got
into Sprigg alley. Got into the lock
up. Got fined one dollar and costs
Got no money to pay it with. Got or
the chain gang. Got to breaking stone
in a reckless and geological manner.
