1t is the most exquisite beauty of a

filling up the breaks in the concord

A BENEVOLENT MAN.

A BENEVOLENT MAN.
Like all poor mortals who drive
pencil and retail the fruit of their
brains, which is often picked greer,
we dcspise, abhor, abominatc the
sight Of all patent medicine pedlars,
beggars, signature solicitors, etc.
To deter them from bothering us we
have large, formidable looking
club over our desk, which is made
from paper but painted to look like
the real article. This club is blown
up, and when it is mashed over fell
lows head the report is only equaled
by Chinese bomb, and about tiv,
pounds of flour is scattered over the
unfortunate. Before he can regain
his senses or see what is going on,
our "devil" runs the briar over his
face, the pressman lighting weight
$50 pounds catches him by the
shoulders, while the junior propels
him toward the door with No. 10
boot. They always survive this ope-
ration but never call again. But
yesterday We met a tartar. We never
got so badly fooled in our life, SO
completely taken in. We relate:
While busy at work our sanctum
door was darkened, and, raising our
eyes, beheld a tall. fine-looking man.
His eyes were blue and had such
mild, soft light, so pleasing and win
ming, that we said in gentlcr tones
than usual, Come in, sir, and take
seat" In he came, his face wreathed
in smiles SO childlike and bland, his
hair combed back from a forehead
high and Intellectual, and there was
such benevolent air about him that
our suspicious were lulled, our senses
buried in spontaneous confidence.
We passed the usual compliments of
the day, he begging US not to disturb
ourselves--not to allow him to inter-
fere with our duties. Oh, certainly
not; we would consider it pleasure
to assist him in any way. Can you
inform me-" he said, in AN inquiring
tone, and locking intcntly at the map,
"of the proposed route of the South
ern Pacific kailroad" We did it
cheerfully-it occupied twenty min
utes. He then sought information
regarding the Colorado Railroad.
We again comp!ied-fifteen minutes
lost. Could we furnish him with the
actual or estimated cost of the Cen
trail Pacific Raiiroadl We got up,
referred to the statistician, figured
and gave him the result-twenty-five
minutes consumed. swell, SIR, ]
am much obliged to you; you have
been very kind, but your ignorance
is lamentable, it is appalling. l am
astonished that man should be con-
nected with paper and know so
little "Sir" we interrupted.
"Bear with me moment more. You
need book, sir, which will give
you full information, facts and
figures, ON this subject and ain
agent Down came the club with
a report like a cannon, flour filled
the air, ink flew in all directions, and
when the benevolent gentleman was
last seen he was rushing up the street
like an escaped lunatic.

NEW MAoHINERY.-A dump en-
zine for the Crown Point and Bel
cher mines, is now being construc-
ted at the Risdon Iron Works, San
Francisco, which will excel in
power and elegance of design any
thing in the world. 1t is known as
the vertical, compound, inverted
beam, condensing engine, and will
be of 600-horse power. 1t has two
cylinders, one of 30-inch diameter.
with a l0-foot finch stroke; the
other diameter of 90 inches and
8.inch stroke. The valve motion
will be controlled by Patterns i'm
provement to Davey's valve-gear.
By this important improvement,
already fully tested on the 400
horsepower engine at the G. and G.
shaft and on the Lady Washington's
machinery, small engine is used
to run and control a very much
larger one, so that the large engine
can be made to perform stroke in
FIVE minutes, or any number up to
twelve strokes per minute, the en-
CINE making the strokes in the same
length of time whether it be run
