The Logan Fdnd.
OLD TIMES RENEWED.
The Fulton Steam Apparatus of Early
Navigation.

a Claremont. y. H., correspondent
writes to the Boston JOurHdl as follows /:
have read in your issue of the Goth inst
what is said there about "a Remarkable
Man" and "Doct William Perry's Ac-
count of the Trip Down the Hudson" in
the first steamboat ever put afloat in
America on the 10th of August, 1907
About seven years afterward lin my 18th
year. ! went upon the deck aud examined
the internal construction of one of the
very few steamboats, or steam craft of any
kind then on the rivers, lakes or any of the
oceanic waters of this continent. In
the construction of the motive pow
er or machinery by which this steam
boat or craft was propelled Mr.
Fulton or one of his agents had been
the engineer. And, Mr.. Editor, as yuu
have ample space aud freely use it Some
times, no dOubt) for the amusement rath-
er than edificatiOn of we "od folks"
will give them slight sketch of how it
happened that event upon the deck" of
said steam propelled craft.
During the year 1914 was employed as
a journeyman printer by the proprietor of
the Rutland, VT, HCrUld. 1t will be re
collected by my contemporaries that
this was the closing year of the
war OF ISL. ~ 1t VIII also be re
collected that during this year Tor Il
short time previOus) there had been Il
pretty hard fought naval battle on Lake
Champaign, III which Commodore Perry,
commanding Uncle Samuels forces, was
victorious took possession of Uncle iona
than's fleet, and with his Fulton steam
tug landed the ships of the Couteuding
parties safely in Whitehall harbOr at the
south end of the lake. Now it isn't sur
prsng that the young lads of village
within 20 miles or so of that harbor VINO
had read or heard all about the exciting
events of that second war for "Indepen-
dence and Sailors Rights and who had
never seen steamboat, should have
an inkling for the marvellous sights
so near at hand. SO in the fall OF tins year
QSlI three other chaps besides myself
went in One-hOrse buggy to Whitehall,
and took IA leis rely view of the SAID gun
boat, especially of the one we took to be
the 'CommodOre's tagship,' | cannot
undertake to give its dimensions with any
degree OF accuracy. My impression is it
might have been so or 1OXl5ieet We found
the hold OF the boat completely filled will
he most uncouth machinery imaginable,
This was the Fulton steam apparatus of
that early day of steam navigation. the
craft of which this fleet" was composed
was built of partially hewn logs of II or
10 inches in diameter above the deck, with
portfolios for cannOnading on both sides
and we noticed not a few marks on the in
side and outside of tho walls, indicating a
pretty heavy shower of missiles from the
enemy battery during That comparative

With the first of December the Audi
bon society for the protection of birds en-
tered on its seventeenth thousand of en-
rolled members. As the plan of the so
ciety was only announced in February
last, and the first cert ltcates of member
ship issued III April, the large number of
members ON the books of the society is an
indication of the very Wlde-S pread interest
taken in the subject of bird protection by
the general public. The influence of the
society has made itself felt IN the best
quarters, and although feathers are still
worn to some extent, they are for the most
part those of game and domestic birds,
and we no longer see hats trimmed with
the heads and wings of half Il dozen tiny
song birds. Th, re l. no expense connect
ed with membership in the Audubon SO
ciety, which is labOrng solely to educate
people to appreciate the value of our birds
to the country at large. The society wants
a local secretary in every town in the
land. 1t issues handsome certificates of
membership hearing Il portrait of John
James Audubon, the great naturalist
from whom il takes its name. luiOrma-
ton As to its methods and plans may be
