George Stephenson's First Railroad.

There was once a man, who was
horn at Newcastle upon.Tyne. who,
says Mrs. Kemble in the Atlantic, was
common coal digger; this man had
an immense constructiveness, which
displayed itself in pulling his watch to
pieces and putting it together again :
in making a pair of shoes when he
happened to be some days without oc
cupation; fically-here there is great
gap in my story-it brought him in
the capacity Of an engineer before a
committee of the House of Commons,
with his head full OF plans for con-
stru;ting railroad from Liverpool TO
Manchester. 1t happened that to the
quickest and most powerful perceptions
and conceptions, to the most indefati
gable industry and perseverance, and
the most accurate knowledge of the
phenomena Of nature as they affect
his peculiar labors, this man joined an
utter want of the "gift Of the CAB )
he could no more explain to others
what he meant to do and how be meant
to do it, thaa he could fly; and there
fore the members of the House Of
Commons after saying, There is rock
to be excavated to a depth Of more
than sixty feet; there are embank.
ments to be made nearly to the same
heighth; there is q swamp Of five
miles in length to be traversed, in
which if you drop an iron rod it sinks
and disappears how will you do all
