Experiments are being made 1T the
Delametcr Iron Works with Ambler's
"Vapor Fuel machine, winch is IN
tended to supersede coal furnaces for
manufacturing purposes. This inven-
ton, about the ownership OF winch
there has been for some time bitter
contest, which has recently been twice
decided by the Patent Office III favor of
Amber, consists of machine contain
ing an internal oil-chambcr surrounded
by steam Jacket to vaporiZe hydro
carbon gas, and steam space below
and above the oil chamber to assist in
maintaining the temperature required
to vaporize the hydrocarbon. The
process OF manufacturing " fuel y
is by bringing hydrogen in con
tact with carbon IN a generator, the
construction of which is such as TO dis
tribute the heat of steam through tue
hydrocarbon. Burners are SO arranged
at the point of combustion, that the
steam at a rarified temperature is con
sumed, and a hydrocarbon flame pro-
duced. This invitation, it is claimed,
has over the use of coal the following
advantages: One half the cost, SIM
piicity of construction, and intense
heating power, which can be quickly
II .ruIated with ease from the lowest to
tt highest degree; perfect combustion,
no smoke, no ashes. In the manuiac-
tuIre of iron, glass, porcelain, etc, these
qualities render such machine pecu-
liarly important.

Growing the - Best Conducted - Girl.

After an interval of two years (says
the Pail Mall Gazette) the little tow

the antiquated ceremony OF browning
with wreath of roses the best con

presented with gold watch and {
purse of 600, which last rewards ere

equal preteusions to the trInket and

ted States liable to the importation of
yellow fever, and to ascertain all the
information possible, 50 as to make a

Damon Murdered hy FytIjaS.

A Melbourne letter to the San Fran
cisco Bulletin says:
An extraordinary tragedy has late
~ been enacted in the Treasury Gar
dcns. The following are the particu-
lars One afternoon, shortly after 4
O'Clock. the report of firearms was
heard, and on search being made two
men were found reclining under a clump
of willows One was dying the other
on his back, smoking a cigar The
man who was dying was lying on his
back, his hands behind his head, and
stretched out at full length One of
the gardeners asked him, who shot
YOU? but the only reply was a
faint gasp, and Immediately afterward
he died he had been shot
through the heart. The living
man WAS asked why he had
shot his companion He
shot himself, was the answer; we
both came here to die. All Will be ex-
planned yet From particulars after
ward obtained it transpired that the
two men, Edward Freeney and Charles
Marks, between whom their existed
singular intimacy, had for some time
contemplated hlhtlai ueStrucIiOn, ana
had gone into the Treasury Gardens
with the intention of dying together
They had been drinking for some time
previously, and among the strange
things done by them was to visit
photographers and have picture
taken representing them standing to-
gether, each with a pistol presented to
the others breast. a coroner's Jury de
clared Freeney TO be guilty of the will
full murder of Marks, and he has been
committed for trial -

And the heart's-ease "a face
Yet there's nothing like the rose
When she blows.
Where innocent. bright-eyed daises are
With blades of grass between,
Each daisy stands up like star
out of sky of green.

What has the rose TO blush about

What's III the sun to flush about

That you blow so sweet?
Among the yiolets
Which blossom at your feet.
The honeysuckle waits.
Fer summer and for heat,
But violets il the chilly spring
Make the wood-path sweet.

Under the late outrageous
apportionment of this State in
to Congressional districts by
the Republican majority in the
Legislature, The. Republican
party have. a Congressman for
each 10000 votes it cast at the
last October election; While
the Democrats have . Con-
gresham for each $1,000 of
their votes. Districts we're
formed especially to preclude
the re.election Of Campbell.
Morgan, and McKin n E y.
While the Republicans, by the
last election, have an excess Of
votes that does not entitle
them to even one more Con-
gresham than the Democrats,
they take, under the bill, ff-
teen districts, leaving their op.
ponents but FIVE. As for 'eon-
tiguity and compactness,' which
the law of Congress provides
for, let any one take the map
and trace out the XIV. district,
commencing at the west end of
Wyandot county and terminus
ting at the eastern end Of
Holmes, district about one
hundred and fifty miles long,
and not more than thirty broad;
five counties strung together
like sausages, and in one place,
| (between Ashland and holmes)
the connection is made by n
little strip of territory not half
dozen miles wide, and the
whole Of that is swamp or lake
surface. That's q sample Of
the 'compactness and coutigui.
ty Of territory The party
that perpetrated this swindEs
upon the people should be
made to suffer for it.
