Aut0mat0n Figures.

AUToMAToN figures, or Androides, made
to initiate human actions, are of early in
vention. Archytas of Tarentum, a re-
nowned mathematician and mechanic, who
redeemed Plato when sold as a slave by
D~ionysius, the younger, about 400 years
B. c., made a flying dove, which is men
toned by several classic authors. But the
earliest automata are the tripods, moved
on living wheels and instinct with life,
which Homer describes Vulcan as having
made. Next are the curious creations of
Misunderstanding and dancing statues,
and a wooden COW, which moved and gave
milk.
In later times, Friar Bacon is said to
have made a brazen head which spoke.
This was made A. D. 1854 Albertus Mag
nus spent thirty years in making another.
A coach and two horses, q page, a lady in
side, were made by Camus for Louis XIV.
when a child The horses and figures
moved naturally, variously and perfectly
They were made in 1649.
Vaucanson made an artificial duck,
which performed every function of real
one, even an imperfect digestion-eating,
drinking and quacking. Vaucanson also
made a flute player in 1913. He under
took to make a machine, or automaton, to
display all the mechanism of the circula-
ton of the blood, the veins and arteries of
which were to be of gum elastic; but in
his day the art of rendering India rubber
plastic was unknown, so the scheme fell
through.
In the fifteenth century, a German,
named John Muller Rigio Montanus,
made an eagle and al iron fly. The eagle
is said to have flown from the city of
Konigsberg, saluted the Emperor, who
was making his entrance, and returned. to
his maker. The fly, it is recorded, would
fly about the room, with a buZzing sound,
and, after a minute or two, alight upon his
makers hand.
In the middle of the last century, two
philosophical mechanics named DroZ
Gather and sony made some wonderful au-
donations in Paris. The father made the
figure of a child, seated at a desk, which
dipped its pen in the ink, and wrote in
French, from dictation. The son made a
female piano-forte player, which sat down
TO the harpsichord, played several tunes,
following with her eyes and head the notes
on the musical book, and at the close rose
and saluted the audience.
A number of years after this Maillardet
exhibited a female figure, which, seated at
8 piano, played for an hour, moving the
fingers and eyes naturally, and Initiating
breathing by a gentle heaving of the
breast. With this he showed a humming
bird coming out of a box, perching on a
bough, moving wings, breast and eyes,
and opening its beak as if to emit song,
its little throat moving all the time. AT
the same time he exhibited the figure of a
boy kneeling on one knee and holding a
pen in his hand, with which he wrote and
made various drawings. He had also
made a mechanical tumbler-a little image
about W inches high inclosed in a glass
case, the lower part of which contained
the mechanism. When this figure was set
in motion it threw itself into a variety OF
elegant and grotesque attitudes, dancing
to some music produced by the machine.

Saving Glover Seed.

IT is not an uncommon occurrence for
a field supposed to have been sown with
clover-seed, to prove to have been sown
with many other seeds not mentioned in
the catalogues. While the seed purchased
from responsible seedmen is generally free
from admixture with seeds of weeds, in
consequence of the care with which they
select it, many a farmer has permitted i'm
pure seed, bought at country stores, to be
put into the ground, and has, in conse-
quence, reaped a plentiful harvest of null
leins, ragweeds, and other denominations.
This might have been avoided had he

where a man travels, East, West
North or South, he will find that the
fame of Wheeling stogie cigars have
preceded him. They are known and
"pufied" everywhere. Our cigar man
ufacturers have attained great fame in
this speciality. 1t is strange too, thai
stogie made elsewhere, is not as good
as il made in Wheeling, even though
manufactured by the same person
This has been explained to arise from
the sulphur in the air around and
about the city, that improves the to
bacco and makes it better But few
Of our citizens have any idea Of the
vast trade that is carried on in stogies
While at Henry Seamon's, yesterday,
we saw a box containing $4,000 o.
them marked for Fon du Lac, Wiscon'
sin, and this was but the first install,
ment Of an order Of 100000. This
we suppose is but sample Of what all
our dealers are doing in this line.
Hardly train or a boat leaves this
city that does not carry away more or
less Wheeling stogies.

statement Of the prices paid to river
men on the Upper Missippi and the

the monthly wages Of steamboat

sition are happy as they can be on
salary ofSl25. On the Upper Mississip-
pi the first clerk receives $l45 PEI
month. On the Ohio 500 is consider

the employees compare pretty much in
the same way. The Upper Mississippi
second clerks receive $40, pilots 5000,
assistant pilots $50, stewards, $40,

and fremen $45. On the Ohio River
boats the second clerk receives $40,
