 The bequest of $4Oo, GOO left by the late Wm. Maxwell to 0. F. Ritchel, of Bridge port. to perfect his flying machine, has at tracted wide attention from would be invehs tors. Professer Ritchei has had a great many letters from persons who think they have hit upon the only possible flying ma chine and who show the highest development of 'cheek" by asking the professor for money to perfect their plans. One man writes that he has ''the only flying machine oA earth in his mind' and wants $500 fight off to make drawings and tho first machine. In post script he adds that he will send for another $500 if the first is not sufficient. Another man from St. Paul writes that he has in- vented flying machine on the t'frog system. " The machine is to give gigantic leaps of 800 yards. Another proposes to compress. say 5O,OOO feet of gas, into 8 small metal cylinder of ten cubic feet capacity and thus float away with the gas under his arm.
 Professor RitcheI has already received l. 765 letters, besides about a score of per sonal visits, from such aspiring inventors Many of these people entertain old exploded schemes which modern science has long since demonstrated to be impractieable, and they eyinoe in their letters that 1t is money makes the mare go" Professor Ritchel will soon begin machine which is intended tC raise 8 man POO feet without gas or steering attachment. The power to work the ma chine will be compressed air.
 The heirs of MT. Maxwell begin to query whether he was in his right mind when ht made the bequest, and possibly they will con test the will.

For it's beginning there will be deposited in this building the present library of the Young Mems Institute and the expenditure of the income from the funds of the Young Mems Institute will be intrusted to the management of the free library.
 The city is in time to come into the enjoy ment of a fund given by the late MT. Maret, the income of which must be expend for books and a reading room. From this fund. and from the income of the Institute fund, ii is expected that there will be seven thousand dollars year and upward available for the purchase of books. For tke payment of the running expenses of the library, salaries, etc, It IS sApecteo to IOok Io tAe cAby HI lSo corporate capacity. This amount will be covered by an annual appropriation.
