STEAM TYPE -COMPOSING MACHINE., --
During the past three weeks a machine,
driven by steam, has been at - work ie.
Manchester setting type automatically.
It has been visited by many printers
and machinists, who pronounce it
tided success. The inventor,
11 lack; a native of Manchester,
who has already iia ade several `.mai
for aistributin . •and setting type=ma-
chines of singular -ingenuity--aims
for the one to which we refer ' as fol-
lows. bill blain work, except "justifi-
cation,". may:be done anywhere, and by
persaees wno never need see a type.
Narbw . paper is perforated by a tiny
machine with fourteen keys -only for
one hundred kinds of letterssi and twen-
ty keys . for two hundred. This per-
forating- can be done it the rate of a
Times' column of minion per hour. The
actual composing of the type is done by
a borizcntal wheel :machine, having on
its rim as many kinds. of type asre-
quired which are placed one .. on the
topof f another in endless : lines,` atthe
rate of two hundred a , minute. The
composer is driven by steam, . by foot or
hand, and • when :the endless perforated
paper is attached to it, it works auto-
. matically. The paper used for ;the per-
forations may be old copies ° of the
2jimes new paper costs ld per column.
The justification will be done by stick -
fulls. Errors' are reduced to a mini-
:enure. The composing machine makes
none, and the perforating one only
when. the. opera ,tor is carless. Dupli-
acates may be perforated at one time,
and lent, sold, ter used on'two or more
machines, and ter
different: sizes of
type.

Bonner began to make his Ledger .pay
by what met short-sighted ueople'dhai-'

He gave Fanny Ferrer a hundred dollars
a column for the first story she contri-

paid to her was returned to him a nun-

who, while lamenting his want, of :judg-

has he prospered, indeed, that a good

luck, as they his good term it. But

The results at which he has arrived are

with the same means that are equally

SEA MONSTER CAUGHT. --A rare Ilsea
monster, has recently been caught wiih
a hook and line about three miles from
the Fddystone Lighthouse. The fish
is nine feet long and near four feet m
girth, and weighs :about three hundred
weight. Its color is of a dark ,,brown
on the back, changing to a light brown
with 4 tinge -of red towards and on the
belly. `! - Every part of the fish is cover-
ed with sharp spines, much like those
on t e common thornback ray. The
large t spine s are of an inch' in diame-
ter. ,From the dints which are visible.
arounid the body, it is pretty evident
he monster has enemies, and been

says : " Who ai its enemies I cannot
imagine, but the dents and scars around
its body tell of the battles fought in
some iof its confii s it would seem as if
several of the spies near the tail had
been torn off, with a considerable por-
tion of the skin, but these places are
now healed, which give the fiish. a very
ancient appearance. I. suppose the
name of this fish to be the spinous
shark. It had been cut open and halt-
ed, and in itwere found seventeen eggs
of various sizes, the largest I shoaald
guess to weigh six ounces. From the
forward state of 'the largest, . I should
suppose it would have produced its
young early this spring"

CURIOUS FACT IN ACCOUSTICs —A
machine bas been invented in France
by which the undulations in the atmos-
phere
tmos-phere' may be counted which take place
between two individuals in conversa-
tion. The 'wind in. passing over the
water causes it to ripple, and the voice,.
when an indivi ual speaks, produces
certain vibration in the atmosphere by
which - sound is communicated. An
eminent philosopher says that these
pulsations,. if they may be so called,
caused by a male voice, vary from 200
to 500 in. a second,, while those for the
female extend from 600 to 1,000.--

THE EARTH'S! DIURNAL MOTION.—If
a line were carried round and round
the globe, it would require to be the
lengthy of 24,550 exiles ; hence this -
is actual space which any given point
in the earth's surface travels over in
the course of twenty-four hours, a rate:
exceeding somewhat 1,000 miles in the,l
hour. This velocity, withwhich every(
person moves continually, is greater, by
140 times, than that with which a can-
non -ball issues from the mouth of a
cannon, and we do not perceive it be-
cause the earth, the air, and every thing
around, is carried with us. --Facts fork

DAN BRANT tells ofth, most com-
plex family ever known, something in
this wise " I married a young widow,
who lived with her step-daughter,°and
my father shortly after married the
Lt. stepdaughter. , v `wife was .therefore
the mother-in-law and the daughter -in -
1
. >.w of 'my father. . T � am fixe step father
of mother-in-law, and my wife's step-
daughter is my step -mother.. Well, mer
step -mother, (that is to say my father's
wife and my wife's daughter) had a
son. Ile is nay step -brother, of course,
but being the on of my wife's step-
danghter, my wife is, of course, . his
grand -mother,„ and I ani bis grand-
father as well as his step -brother. My
wife also had a son.. My step -mother
is consequently- the step -sister of my'
boy and also his grandmother,; because
he is the child: of her step -son, :and my
faath r is the brother-in-law of my son.
I a of - fey mother's brother-in-law, my
wife is the aunt of her own son, my son
is the grandson, of my father, and I am
any own grandfather,"
THE . ART OF BEING MISERABLE.;
Kingsley says " If you wish to be
miserable you must think about your-
self ; about what you want, . what you
like, what respect people ought to pad*
you, what people think of you. ;; and
then to you nothing will be pure. YOU
will spoil everything you touch ; you
will make sin -and misery for yourself
out of everything which God sends
,you ,; you will be as wre,ched aa... jou
choose."
The petrified head of an extinct ani-
mal was lately found tear Plesaiit

a pair of horns jtit below the eyes, and
another pair midway between the eyes
and ears. One of the eyes was almost
as perfect as when the animal was in
the flesh, and : the socket of the other,
with the' optic Italie ill the centre, was
quite plan . The beast must have been
