Steam Carriages In 1888.

Sir James Anderson, who resides at
Butteyant castle, has devoted the whole
of his life to scientific pursuits. His OK
traordinary talents have been mainly
directed to the construction of steam
drag or carriage for common roads. Sir
James has expended no less sum than
$50, 900 in his experiments, and so ex-
traordinary has been his perseverance
that he spent fortune in building 30
unsuccessful carriages, to succeed i'll the
thirtieth. Hear this, ye who boast of
sacrifices and perseverance, The
"drag," or steam engine, is not like
those hitherto attempted. 1t is ma
chine to do the work now done by
horses.
The vehicle, by which the passengers
are conveyed, is to be attached to it, and
thus in tho remote cases of accident no
injury can arise to the passengers. The
drag can be at once detached and the
carriage forwarded by horses. No noise
is heard, no smoke, no unpleasant odor
perceived, and the gallant, painting stecd
can gallop to his journeys end untired
and untiring. How admirable is this
arrangement Let us look II little for
ward and we shall see Bishop Berkeley
prophecy realized. Sir" said he,
mark me. Ere long we shall see pan
of Goals brought to use i'll place of
feed Of oats. - And who can doubt it
will be so? 1t appears the cost of fuel
for drag" to convey 80 passengers
and luggage will not be above four
pence per mile, and that the average
speed will be about Is miles per hour.

Political Passions In France.

During the greater part of tho seven
ties, while the assembly sat ut Yer
sailles, twoor three deputies often club
bed together for cab from and to the
station. If, however, they happened to
belong to different sides of the house,
the red silken blinds of the carriage
were invariably let down, ito avoid
comment. In summer, when the coupe
disappeared from the rank to make
room for the victoria, such associations
always ceased. During the trial of
Prince Pierre Bonaparte for the murder
of Victor Noir, ut Tours, i'll March.
1870, the reporters of the opposition pa
pers refused to stay ut the same hotels
with those of the government organs.
AS for sitting down at the same table
d'hote, the idea WAS positively laughed
to scorn. Younger Frcncbmen are still
more prone to such exhibitions of polit-
ical intolerance than their elders, and
it need scarcely be said that Jules ST.
mons audience on the occasion Of his
debut in Paris consisted mainly of
young men. Without exaggeration,
then, one may say that he escaped the
fate of some of his predecessors, con-
temporaries and successors bya miracle.
Nor Am eXaggcrating when l state
that during my long experience OF
France, l have not seen more than Il
couple of young Frenchmen absolutely
free from this defect However broad
minded in other respects, 81 per cent of
these are certain TO run .sround III the
narrow channel of political passion. -
