The Mechanics Lien Law.

10 the Editor OF THE EVENING STAR:
All those who really desire the prosperity Of
the District Of Columbia owe debt of graft
tude 70 Senator Sherman for introducing the
bill which has for its object the amendment OF
the present obnoxious mechanics lien law
AS Mr.. Ashford has well written. the law, as
IL stands at present, is calculated to do serious
harm IL was passed in the interest of material
men. am frank TO admit that the lumber men,
the brick men, and all those who supply mate
rial are gamers by the law but owners Of prop
erty, reaI estate agents, and capitalists seeking
Investments are ieft without any protection
whatever. Certainly, these gentlemen have
some rights that should be secured The bill of
Mr. sherman Is eminently Just. and should be
passed without delay. Mr.. Ingalls,, chairman of
the Senate District committee has it Ia said
promised that all legislation materially affecting
the District should be disposed OF at this session
OF Congress. He can render the citizens OF the
District no greater service than by speedily
passing the Sherman bill. Mr.. Barbour. chair
man OF the House committee has always been
friend Of the District, and it is fair TO assume
that he will promptly have the bill passed when
1t reaches the House. Let there DE hearty and
earnest cooperation upon the part OF all those
affected by the lien law, and the Sherman bill
VIII become law in very short time.
FAIR PLAT.

Fitch, Rumsey and Fulton.

To the Editor OF THE EVENING STAR:
Fulton was not the first man who thought OF
steam for the propulsion OF vessels. neither was
Fitch, but there is no doubt of the fact that Full
tol first brought it into practical use. Probably
the very first attempts In this direction Were
made on the Potomac, near Shepherdstown.
Va. about 1882 to 1854, by James Rumsey. His
idea was to force the boat through the water by
steam discharged from the stern. The propul-
sive power was insufficient. 1t failed and Fitch
was experimenting at the same time or very
soon after. His boat was operated by paddles.
He obtained q propelling power of four miles an
hour and there is no telling what he might
have accomplished if the boiler of his boat had
not bursted in the midst of his experiments.
He died soon afterwards, before renewing them
A full account Of Fitch's trials and experiments
may be found, if to be had, in a small volume
entitled Eminent Mechanics" published about
fifty years ago. though the work is probably
now out Of print. It. j.

Fulton Not the Man ANY Way.


LEEsBURG, Va. January 12, 1856.
Noticing communication of SATURDAY.. and
also Of to-day, about the First Inventor OF the
Steamboat" l send you little bit of Virginia
history: In Henning's statute, VOL z. page 500.
there is recorded an act of the Virginia assembly
Of October, 1884, guaranteeing to James Rum
sey, OF Shepherdstown, ia that state, the ex-
elusive use of his invention i'm navigating the
waters of that state. for the space of ten years
IRON date" In January, 1885. he obtained
patent from the general assembly of MARYLAND
for navigating their waters. In the year 11S6.
he succeeded in propelling mis- boat BY steam
alone at Shepherdstown against the current of
the POTOMAC At the rate Of four or five miles an
hour. Gen. Washington was al that time a
member OF the Potomac company" which was
engaged IN the improvement of the naviga-
ton the Potomac river, and in a letter
to Hugh Williamson, member of Congress. dated
Mount Vernon, March Is, 1855, he says,
abiding to Rumseys boat: "If model of a
thing In min allure is Just representation OF O
greater object In practice there Is no doubt of
The utility OF the invention. A view OF his
mOdel.with the explanation, removed the princi-
pal DOUBT ever had of the practicabilitV of
propelling against stream by the aid of
mechanical power; out as he wanted to avail
himself Of my introduction OF it to.the public
attention 1 chose previously to see the &C
tual performance Of the model in a descend
ing stream before | passed my certificate aud
having done SO, all my doubts are satisfied"
With regard to Fitch sharp controversy eX-
listed between Rumsey and himself as to the
originality of their respective inventions. The
Hon. Robert Wicklife. ST., CT kentucky,
in communication to the American Pioneer
(vol. l, p. 81 says: That about the year 1850
Fitch accidentally met Rumsey in the streets
Of Winchester. Va, and impaired TO him the
idea Of propellng boats by steam. Admitting
the fact. it proves nothing more than that from
Fitch, Rumsey derived the bare idea: the prin-
ciples Of their machinery were different. With
out deciding upon the respective merits OF
either, both certainly claim admiration for their
perseverance, as well as sympathy for their mis-
fortunes. l Lave received piece of old Vir-
GINA history. which seems to have been always
overlooked in steamboat controversies" but
which, to any candid mind. must certainly put
Fulton outside Of the question. il 1t still leaves
the honor Of priority unsettled between Rumsey
and Fitch. SM
