WEDNESDAY. Feb. 9-pM

The features of the market to-day have been the
,oceutrc course of stocks the general tendency hav-
Ing been downward, and sharp advance in gold
The latter seems TO be explained by the continued
expectation of the precious metals and the sudden
and extraordinary drain of gold from the Bank OF
England But why an advance in gold should re-
sult in depreciation of the price OF stocks or why
the effect should not, in fact, be exactly the
reverse Of that is problem Of difficult solution to
an ordinary mortal. if he may happen to be i'm
reased with the idea that the securities sold at the

Canal Navigation.

Anew and novel steamboat, intended
for canal navigation, was launched at
the Miami Railway Dry Dock Compa-
ny's wharfyesIerday in Fulton. 1t is a
small boat built for the purpose of test
ing the invention and establishing the
principle upon when the inventor claims
all steam canal boats should be built.
The great difficulty in arriving at a
satisfactory solution of the steam and
navigation problem lies in the fact that
the violent action of paddle wheels in the
water causes it to wash away the
banks. In order to obviate this difficulty
the wheels of this boat are located in
the stern and elevated about eight or ten
feet above the water and do not touch 1t
at all.
They are propelled by the engine, and
the boat is driven by the action of the
wind from them. There is but little dis
turbance of the surface of the water, the
air from the paddle-wheels making con.
cave impressions upon it.
The boat, as tried yesterday, is a sue
cess. 1t was headed up the stream
against strong current, and made fast
er time than is made by the ordinary ca
nal boat propelled by horse power.
Several more trials will be made, and
the patent will probably be tested on
some OF our canals in short time.

/ Some days ago a steamer from -Phila-
Hdelphia landed at Providence, having on
board fine specimen OF the Virginia
coon, which belonged to the crew. IL was
thought expedient to allow the animal
the freedom of the decks on the day OF
the vessels arrival, but the precaution
was taken TO limit his movements with q
long chain and collar. Delighted at his
release from the cage, the coon ran the
full length Of his chain, slipped his head
through the collar Like flash, and jumped
ly by the excited second mate with be-
laying pin. Then ensued swim for life,
which was vastly amusing to the specta-
tors on the deck and wharf. The econ
won by crawling between the timbers Of
the dock into hole which the mate
could not penetrate, and has not been
seen or heard of since.

In the Museum of Pompeii there are
preserved themost pathetic witnesses Of
the last days OF the ilI-iated city. When
the workmen were digging in 1868 they
struck into small cavity and poured
plaster OF Paris down its creyices. As
soon as the plaster had hardened the
crust Of lava was carefully removed, and
To-! the form of human being in his
death struggle perfectly preserved. Bur.
this wonderful mould. Several bodies
have thus been reproduced--one of them
with the features perfectly preserved, so
that there is still expression in the face.
Two female bodies found lying near each
other are called mother and daughter.
There is nothing at Pompeii more touch
ing than the despair depicted in the atti-
tude of this group.

In the midst of a play in a Chinese
theater in Yolo, California, two OF the
performers had a combat SO realistic and
vigorous as to tix the attention of the
previously listless audience. The actors
were armed with knives, and while they
struggled with each other ON the stage,
the spectators yelled and stamped their
approval. At last stream OF blood ran
across the boards, and one of the con.
testants fell back dead. The fight had
been genuine, the actors having quar-
relied about woman, who also played in
the piece.
