AutOnatOn.

Thus writes the Memphis Register
concerning recent wonderful illven-
ton: This is the most wonderful
mechanical combination of the age,
constructed and arranged by William
Robinson, of Memphis, Tenn. In this
mechanical wonder is the completeand
life-like operation of twenty-five oper-
ators, each performing distinct work.
With this is the running of a train of
cars, stopping at its stations, and start
ing at the signal Of the conductor of
the train; beautiful steamboat on
miniature lake, with scenery in the
background also race between. a
horse and buggy and velocipede, the
whole forming most beautiful and
picturesque scene.
This mechanical wonder has been
visited by the best machinists in the
city, and by thousands of citizens, and
by all pronounced a marvel of ingenu-

The London Review is correct when
II says the American and Englishtnsn do
not assimilate when travelling. Although
IN the same section cf car or on the same
boat on one OF the lakes, they seldom
exchange q word, and never unless the
American breaks ice Their answers
to questions are in monosy tables, and the
questioner feels as il he were being snub-
bed for having asked them. After one or
Two sttemps of this kind, tho American
feels more disposed to attempt to con.
verse by signs and motions with a Turk
than to make an effort 10 open any social
conversation with the Euglshman
who may be sitting on the other side Of
him. The fact 10 that John Bull Is surly
and suspicious character. lie thinks that
every man who approaches him without
an Introduction has some evil intentions,
and at once becomes 80 watchful that he is
as dumb as an oyster. In good deal of
experience in continental travelling we
have never known an Englishman to
commence or invite conversation, al
though we have met with some
who have ultimately proyed
very pleasant and apreeable
travelling comps Mons. But this money
question Is the one that lie invariably pre-
dominant in their minds. They always
pant to know how it is that SO many
Americans are able to bring their whole
families to Europe, and spend money so
lavishly; how it is possible for us to go
on so rapidly in the payment of our ma
tional debt, etc. The only answers that
can be given to these questions they set
down as American gasconade, A merican
boasting, and exaggeratiop. 1t thus Of
ten happens that Whist might otherwise
have been a pleasant travelling scquaint-
ance ends with i'll feeling and the Amer.
can resolves in future to stand aloof from
III intercourse with Englishmen. During
i've months travel, we have exchanged |
words with but one Englishman, and he

Mr.. Fulton's Paris letter TO the Baltimore

Our English cousins from across the
channel who are not travelling on the con-
tinent have just vented their grievance
against American tourists in u very able
article in the Saturday Review They
Say that the Americans are demoralizinp
hoteEkeepers, servants, and beggsrs, and
the whole host Of people with whom they
come IN contact, TO such an extent that the
plain English traveller, with limited means
IS Invariably snubbed and given poor
quarters and attention wherever Amerl-
cans are abundant. That Americans come
TO Europe TO run hastily over tho Cont.

means, aud that they demand the best
rooms, the bes. attendance, are lavish in
thsis fees 70 servants, and never dispute
the landlords bills, This 10 all very true.
but brother Bill! must remember that uo ost
Americans don't understand the language
and could not dispute the bills if they were
80 disposed, ss it would require something
more than linguistic knowledge TO read
and understand any part of most Of the
bills, except the figures a. the end Of the
lines, and the grand total. We remem.
