How Fred. Douglass Got His Name,

Washington Bailey. l had, however, while
living in Maryland, dispensed with the Au
gustus Washington. and retained only Fred
erick Bailey. Between Baltimore aud New
Bedford, the better to conceal myself from the
slave hunters, had parted with Bailey and
called myself johnson but in New Bedford
found that the johnson family was already SO
numerous as to cause some confusion in dis
tinguishing them, hence change in this
name seemed desirable. Nathan johnson.
mine host, placed great emphasis upon this
necessity. and wished me to allow him to Sc
lect name for me. I consented, and he
called me by my present name--the one by
which have been known for three and forty
years-Frederick Douglass. Mr.. johnson
had just been reading The Lady of the Lake,
and so pleased was he with its great charac.
ter that he wished me to bear his name.
Since reading that charming poem myself,
have often thought that, considering the no

Johnson--black man though he was-he, far

est since there is no doubt that il was the
first time, either in the Old World or the
New, that accumulated electrical energy had
been so employed; while the complete success
which attended the experiment must un-
qncstionably mark new departure in rail-
way management. 1t WAS only few moutl
since NJ. Faurc sent to Sir William Thomson
his little box OF lead plates coated with red
oxide and fully charged with electricity. The
great British physicist saw at once its cap
abilities, and now every day seems to be
bringing to light some new application of
tn 9, the simplest of all apparatus ever de-
signed by genius. The Pullman car on which
yesterdays experiment was made, carried
beneath it on q shelf some 80 small metal
boxes, technically cells, each of which con-
tanned leaden plates coated with the oxide
known as red lead. Nothing less preteniious
or more inert in outward appearance could
well be imagined Yet there was stored up
in those sheets of lead an amount of force
which, if it could be suddenly liberated.
would vastly exceed the power of any storm
of tropical tightening. A steam engine had
been at work ON the previous night, pro
ducing current of electricity which, in some
mysterious manner, had hid itself away in
the folds of the metal and beneath the cloak
of red oxide but was ready at any instant to
give back in the form of light or of force the
energy that had created it. Twelve of Mr..
Swans little incandescent lamps were fixed
TO the roof of the carriage, and all that was
necessary when the train passed through
tunnel or when darkness came on was TO turn
a switch, and instantaneously mild, steady
and brilliant light filled the saloon. From the
point of view of the traveller, the experiment
was completely successful; a superior il
Illumination could hardly be desired; and il it
be true, as possibly sanguine electricians
assert, that this storage can be effected at a
smaller cost than oil, the pleasant trip to
Brighton yesterday afternoon may have
wide-rcaching effects.-From the London
