JAPANEsE INGENUITY.

correspondent writing from Toxic on
the prospects Of q trade with that country
in American manufactures, says:
During and after the Philadelphia expo
sition, the Japanese commission purchased
large quantity of agricultural implements,
and so anxious were the dealers to open q
trade with Japan tat they sold these sam
pie articles at less than wholesale figures.
In due course of time the things arrived,
and the sharp-eyed mechanics went to work
to copy them. They are now making cast
iron plows just as cheaply as we do in
America, AMI at less price than it would
cost tn deliver them here. Harrows, culti-
vators, seed sewers, and similar simple i'm
plements, they are copying to perfection;
they may buy few now and then in Amer
ica, but it will BE solely that they may use
them as models. With reapers, mowers
of similar intricate construction, they have
not succeeded as yet, but are confident of
doing SO in time; and, any event, the char
acter of the country and its agriculture,
and the low price of labor, will prevent
large demand for tlis sort of labor-saving
machinery. Hoes, shovels, and other hand
tools, they have not attempted to any great
extent and thus far they have not been
able to get the peculiar strength and fexi-
bility which is the boast of the American
maker The japanese laborer is conser-
vative being, and will not readily surrender
the implements of his ancestors. Doubt
less he may do so in time, but when he
does he will purchase our productions pro-
vided, in the meanwhile, homemade arti-
Gle of equal excellence does not come to
light. There are no patent laws in japan,
and the inventor las no protection if the
native mechanics can succeed in copying
what he has created. A young American
came here recently with fond hopes of
making fortune out of q refrigerator, the
invention of an enterprising countryman.
But he found, in the first place, that the
japanese made no use of the article he
brought, and, second, they could copy it,"

LOW A GOAL MINE WAS DlSCOV.
Erred,

A lady, to whom the French owe the dis
covery of the most prolific coal field in
France, died recently at the age of sixty
six. Madame de Clercq, the lady in ques-
ton, dwelt in q magnifc 2nt chateau stu
ated in the department of the Pas de Ca
lais, and surrounded by a vast park; but
the park was entirely destitute of water,
there being neither lake, rivulet, nor water
fall in it. Water she was determined to
have; and, as she was millionaire it was
not expense that could Lalk her. She sent
to Paris for NJ. Malot, the engineer who
created the famous artesan well in that
city, and gave him carte blanche for the cost
of raising water. That gentleman, after
lis preliminary experiments, said he would
guarantee that water should be found but
he would not pledge himself to make it rise
to the surface.
"Tind the water" said Madame de
Clercq, "and, if it will not rise of its own
accord, we will force it up by machinery"
NJ Malot found not only large sheets of
water, but also coal field of which the
yield at present-that is, after twenty
years workings superior to that of all the
other coal fields of France combined. Its
value is now estimated at several millions
of francs. Thus, at one stroke, she orna-
mentad her park with an abundance of
water and added many millions to her al
ready immense FORTUNE. A few years ago,
she lost an action in which she was engaged
against the Due D'Aumale, and by which
twenty millions Of francs were to-be won
or lost Though she was cast in that suit,
still she has left her son, the deputy, q
millionaire.

SOME interesting trials have been made
in England, with q view to ascertain the
condition of iron and steel when subjected
to conclusive strains, in contradistinction
to the application VI steady mechanical
force. Square pieces of iron and steel
boiler plates were used for the purpose,
the former being ZIG in. thick, and the
latter (, in charge of one and half
pounds of gun cotton. Each plate was
laid over baSin-like cavity in the top of a
large block of iron, and the gun cotton was
exploded over the centre, at a height of
about nine inches. The results of the
experiments showed that the mild steel
plates of the Siemens and Beesomer pro-
cesses, tempered in oil, possess an endur-
ance and ductility far beyond what have
ever characterized wrought irons, and that
steel is much superior to iron for the manu.
facture of boilers, locomotives tires or
rails. The annealing process was shown
to be clearly advantageous for steel.

A FAMOUS DUBLIN DOCTOR.

most readable paper is sketch of DR..
William Stokes, the great physician of
Dublin, and one of the most genial, laugh
ter-loving, witty men who ever lived, and
one, too, who, on occasions, dared play the
fool. He had habit of attention which,
by degrees, made his skill in diagnosis pro-
verbal, but his real greatness was his char
acter, which seems to have been deformed
by only one defect-a hatred and intoler-
auce of stupidity, the commonest of the
faults of the quick-witted They never
will see that stupid people are wanted by
the world just as inorganic matter is want
ed by the stomach, and wish to be always
swallowing pure nutriment Naturally,
DR.. Stokes despsed Ehglishmen, who al
ways appeared to him, as to many other
Irishmen, the stupidest of mankind, and
he once expressed the feeling in this per-
fectly epigrammatic form: IF charming
English girl married a vulgar, forward
Irishman Ga frequent occurrence), and we
wondered at it, he would say: My dear fell
low, you are stumbling upon a great truth.
The Saxon has no power of diagnosis!"
