A New Motor.

Col. Beaumont of England, one of the
engineers in the English army, has in
vented a compassionate engine. which
seems to offer the highest possibilities of
future development of any contrivanee
in that line that has yet been discovered.
To state in brief what it has accomplish
ed, it may be said that it has hauled a
load of twelve tons over an ordinary
track for over twenty miles, with a sin
gle charge of air, and this too, at quite a
high rate of speed; and, with a similar
expenditure OF power, has taken load
of twenty-five tons a distance of eleven
miles. The principle that Col. Beau
mont has adopted is somewhat similar to
the plan now in use in marine steam en-
gines, known as the compound engine;
that is, the compressed air, under pres
sure of 1000 pounds to the square inch,
is stored in a small cylinder, and from
this is admitted, as needed, into larger
cylinder, and from this second reservoir
into yet larger. working cylinder. Here
the air is utilized to the last pound, and
is then noiselessly elected out of an open
ing in the side of the working cylinder.
Another obstacle to the use of compress
ed air, which consists in the intense cold
that it generates, has been met and over
come by clever and inexpensive meth
cd of warming the air. Indeed, the ma
chine has almost all the qualifications of
success, and, if its cost is not too great,
it ought to come into very general use as
substitute for horse power on street
railways, and even on regular railroads
where the distances to be travelled are
short. Take, for example, the elevated
railways in New York city. One great
objection to their employment would be
removed if the engines were noiseless and
without smoke. Already arrangements
have been made to give the invention a
practical trial on short railroad run
ming out of Edinburgh, although it has
already been put to pretty severe tests in
the inclosure of the Royal Arsenal at
Woolwich. The British government
officials have taken great interest in the
experiments made, as it is asserted that
it will furnish just the kind of power
needed for torpedo boats that are regulat-
ed and steered from the shore by electric
wires.

ISLAND POND, VERMONT FRIDAY JUNE 26 1880

" l should feel much safer to have you
do it, than attempt it myself" l urged,
in reply.
"AatS; vat for you want amputation
at ALL" he demanded.
Isn't it necessary, thenP"
"Certain-ne-.teUre, Inflammation 1
make it all right"
But the bone is crushed?"
No, no. The leg is good!"
As both ships were bound to Honolulu,
he offered to remain on board until our
arrival there, and take charge of the case.
My answer was simply to place my
state-room at his disposal, and send a
boat to the Garonne for whatever he
might want. He seemed like an angel
sent to save Captain Wyatt's life-at
least his leg; which amounted to the
same thing, when the surgical aid of the
black cook and myself is considered.
Before we sailed from Oahu, the cap
tain was able to walk; and he still lives,
with two legs as good as my own. But
to this day can never repress shudder
as l think Of the negro fourishing the
saw, and warning me to "stand by and
grab de art'ries."

Interesting Antiquities.

At the recent annual meeting of the
New Hampshire Historical Society,
Charles W. Tuttle, Esq, of Boston, read
copy of the original will of Sir Ferdi-
nand Gorges, Knit, lord proprietor of the
ancient Province of Mayne," in New
England. This venerable document,
madein l649, about a week before his
death, has been missing for long pc
riod of time, and no copy was known to
exist. 1t has been sought for by Ameri-
cans as well as English antiquarians
during many years. Only recently was
the original will discovered, and copy
sent to Mr.. Tuttle. Gorges was concern
ed with Capt. John Mason in the pro-
prietorship of the territory out Of which
New Hampshire was taken in 1929, and
his memory is still held in veneration in
New Hampshire. Mr.. Tuttle also gave
an interesting account of Rev. William
Blaxton, one of the old planters of Mas
sachusetts Bay, and the first European
settler within the old limits of Boston,
called by Mather the Metropolis of Eng
lish America, nearly century later.
Blaxton held confidential relations with
the Gorges family, and was one of that
small Episcopal colony brought to these
shores in 1923 by Capt. Robert Gorges, a
son of Sir Ferdinand. Soon after the az
rival of the Puritan colony in Massa-
chusetts Bay, in 1880, Blaxton removed
to Rhode Island, and by this accident
was the first white settler in the present
limits of that State. Although he lived
in those parts more than fifty years, dy-
ing in 1875, the late Mr.. Drake, histor-
ian of Boston, could not find so much of
his handwriting as his autograph in this
country. Mr.. Tuttle exhibited a fac
simile of two autographs of Blaxton,
taken from the records of Emanuel Col
lege of England, where he graduated in
1921. His surname is commonly written
Blackstone, but his autographs show that
he wrote his name Blaxton. He was not
only an agent for the Gorges, but also Of
the great Council of Plymouth, in the
county of Devon, in England. He was
authorized to give Edward Hilton pos.
session of the lands granite hy the Coun.
Gil, situated on the Piscataqua River
commonly known as the Swansea
Patent"

The steerage passengers ran about in the
widest terror, and all the passengers
shared in the prevailing panic. The
crew became demoralized and ran to the
boats, but the captain acted in heroic
manner. He called out that he would
shoot the first man who abandoned the
ship and refused to obey orders, and then
the crew for the most part were submis-
sive and did good work. Five of the
Anchoria's crew sneaked off in the life
boat as they were taking the passengers
over to the Queen. With the exception
of these five men, the crew of the An
choria remained on board their ship.
We had ship full of passengers, and
when the Anchoria's large list was added
to ours it was difficult thing to get any
sleep or rest"

A Wonderful Lake.

Tulare lake is probably the most mys-
terious spot on the continent. 1t is locat-
ed on a great plain three hundred miles
south of San Francisco. At a distance
the water appears to be higher than the
land. A mile or more before reaching
the water the dry land of the plain gives
place to damp soil, and when at last the
margin of the lake is found one may
wade into it for more than mile before
finding it knee keep. The lake is about
forty miles long. The bottom is formed
of clam shells, and there are hundreds
of small islands and punches of tules.
The islands are tenanted by millions of
white birds of the gull kind, and upon
one of them fourteen human skulls rang
ed in a circle were lately found, no other
bones lying near. Mounds have been
discovered along the shore, and it is ex-
pected that the whole bottom of the
lake will reveal traces of submerged
city.

Gentle HumanitIes.

Shoe the horse and shoe the mare;
Never let the hoof go bare;
Trotting over the flinty stones
Wears away the hardest bones.
Life has many a stony street
Even to the toughest feet;
Men, the sturdiest, find it so
Ere through half of life they go.
Streaks of blood are in the way,
Trod by humans every day,
Seen by Loves anointed eye,
While the blinded world goes by.
Yea, if all the sighs were caught,
Wherewithal the air is flaught,
What gale would sweep the skies
Laden with mans miseries!
Gently, then, o brother man!
Do the utmost good you can;
God approveth e'en the least
Deed of ruth to man or beast.

,Re following is the text of an impor-
tant decision rendered in Chambers, on
Monday, by His Honor, S. l.. Taylor.
Judge of our District Court, in which it
is held that the Tax Collector is bound
to receive when rendered to him the
Auditors warrants issus3 to Constitu-
tional officers, for State licenses, due for
the years in which said warrants are
issued. The point was raised by J. J.
Slattery, ESQ.,, our late District Attor-
ney, who applied TO the court for man
damus to compel John Lake, Sheriff and
ex-otlicio Tax-Collector of the parish of
Caddo, to receive an Auditors warrant
issued to him for his salary for the
month of January of the year 1850, for
State license due for the current year,
the same having been rendered to him
in payment and refused. The court
granted peremptory mandamus This
is, we believe, The first time that this
question has been brought to the atten-
ton of the courts of the State, and as
it is matter in which every salaried
officer Of the State government is deeply
