k0UNrz's NEW STEAMER.
Cincinnati Enquirer.

The huge stern-wheel steamer, j. B. NJ.
Kehlor, was the sensation at the landing
yesterday morning. Owing to the novel
appearance she presented, a great deal of at
tention was attracted toward her. She ar
rived At eight o'clock, having left Pitts
burgh at 4 p. m, Sunday, and lost eighteen
hours by landings and weather. With the
exception of the location of her chimneys,
she very much resembles Captain Darragh's
Paragon, which ran between Cincinnati and
New Orleans about -four years ago. She has
no cabin Accommodations for passenger, her
upper works being enclosed for freight.
Her boilers and engines occupy the smallest
possible space in the after part of the boat,
her smoke stacks coming through the deck
back Of her pilot house. This condensed
arrangement Of her machinery gives her a
large deck room. Opening from her hold
are number of matches, distributed at equal
distances through her floor. A shaft runs
the entire length Of the boat, over the hatch
es, through which freight is lowered and
hoisted, giving unusual facilities for;loading
and unloading, and ef1ecting q vast saving
Of labor and expense. She has a windlass
forward, which is claimed to possess many
advantages over the capstan used by other
steamers. The machinery Of this steamer
is different from anything ever before At
tempted, and attracts most attention. Capt.
Kountz, her owner, is the inventor, and says
it is the result of years of study, calculation
and labor. This is the first experiment
made with it, and Commodore Kountz dis
plays3n small amount of nerve in making
such an expensive attempt. He is immen.
sely pleased with its performance and pro-
uounces it a complete success. The engines
are two in number one being a high pressure
and the other a low pressure. They are
both situated amidship aft and connect their
power at the wheel, which, although two in
number, have no disconnected motion. Her
dimensions are as follows: Length, 255
feet; beam. 40 feet; hold, 8 feet; shear, 4 feet
She has twelve water-tight compartments,
and is built extra strong in every respect
Other two cylinders one is 44inches and the
other Is inches; two batteries of boilers o.
two boilers each, '39 inches in diameter and
"a feet long; two wheels coupled together
each l6 feet long and 81 feet in diameter
"a inch buckets. She has 700 tons on board
and 10 drawing 4 feet 9 inches forward, and
4 feet 3 inches al. Her destination is New
Orleans. Pilots Marsh Hayes and Jacot
Poe brought her down, and say she handle,
we'll and consumes very little fuel.

On the 18th ult. the Crows and Gros

10 the vicinity Of the camp, and pieces of
tobacco tied to q stick were found, which
signihed that the Sioux desired 10 smoke

b following day Maj. Reed, who was

Lame Bull. a Gros Ventre, has gone with
the Crows into the Judith country, taking
the lodges of his own people with him and
advising the rest to follow.
A eros Ventre Indian came in from Ma.

A Leaf From Democratic History.

Democratic organs have been very
severe in their criticism of the finan-
cial policy of the Republican party,
conveniently ignoring or else being
ignorant of the financial history of
the last Democratic administration,
of which old "public functionary"
Buchanan was the head. A few
days since Gen. c. II. Grosvenor, in
speech in Ohio, made the following
statement:
In 1860, or in the beginning of 1861, abe
then Democratic administration found itself
compelled to borroy money to pay the ordin-
airy expenses of the government. There was
no war,--there was not an extraordinary con
dition of things to cause the necessity, but
the treasury was empty and Democratic Office
holders we're unpaid The governments went
into the market and tried TO sell its bonds.

The acquisition of vital energy is the step

vitality, the vari Gus organs flag in their duty,

should be bai 1t up by the use of that inimita-
