It was not Imtil.the year 1806 that
,,
the first pateet4.4rer manufacturing -pa--
per of au indefinitlerigth" Was taken
out by Henry FoUrdriniere This was
soon foliewed by ,Mr., bickinson's'pa-
-tent of June -30; 1867, fur inaehinery
, for cuttiug and planing paper. thus
inade. Fourthaniers,patent for the pit-
pei machine, 'NOich still bears his name,
was talcdn out in the same year; and it
-was- abont this time tat Mr.. Dickin-
son (Whose death has beeu recently an7
, nounced) commeneed. his *weer as a pa-
per manufacturer by the purchase. of
_Apsley- .11E11, near I-ertie/. Hempstead,.
to whiche in the coUt.se -oftiine, four
i
other ;mhi
ills . 11crtfordshire were
added, two of them constructed, and
. the Mrater power of thcm created, under
his own Superintendence. It 'was' in
t
1807, before the commencement of the
Peninsnlar.carapaign, that he invented
a new cannon -cartridge paper, _made
by mixino. together linen and woolen
rags in certain pi rtions, so thas after
the explosion,: it was prevented from
retaining spark6 of fire. Jr!. 18p9 he
patented machinerf for the. manufac-
ture of paper by means of an ingeni-
ousik ,constructed cylinder. of brass,
covered with wire gauze and connected
_
'with an ain'pump--a forret a machine
-which still remains in Use. ... This was
followed by other patents for the manu-
facture of finely -faced, copper -plate
paper by a sort of veneering process,
and for a machine te cut cards, both
of which were • successful inventiOns,
and the former especiallytended much
' to increase' his. reputation. In 1829
he invented the process . of introducing
colored threads into the -body' of paper
at the, instant of its manufacture,
whicli was again improved on in 1839.
This' presetv'ative 0-ainst forgery will
have been noticed by holders of Ex-
., chequer bills, and hiany of- us will re-
member it in the sta., tripe& envelopes
which were issued by Government af-
-ter the adoption. of the penny postage
' systeni, in the introduction of which
31r. Dickinson had taken great iater-
est. In 1822 we find him twain: pa-
tenting a knotter or strainer for clean-
ing pulp front impurities ; and two
years later applying magnets for the re-
moval of .any portion of irouthat may
- happen to be in he pulp,. and thus
. preventing iron -m uldr,in the paper.

In Ilia 'early yea, s he used. to 'sit up
late at his studi sa but in his -later,
.years he retired .very night at nine
o'clock, and lay til four in: the sunnier
.and five in the winter. If not then
• disposed to rise, he had some one to Sit

dined,itook,some exercise for au hour,
generally ilfa chair In which he used
to swig hiaiself, afterward played on
the organ or base -viol; and either 'sung
himself or requested his wife to sine-,
who, as he said, bad a good .voice anql
no ear.. ;He then -resumed' his studies
etintilesuc, from which hour till eight
lie conversed with all who came to
visit hira. Like many other poets, Mil:
iton found the stillness, warmth, and re-
cumbency of bed favorable to compo..
sition; and his wife said, beforeyiing
of a rnornirtg he often dictated to r
twenty Or thirty verses.- A favorite
positionof his, when dictating his
verses we are told,•waa that of sitting
-with one leg over an arm of his chair.
_His wife related -that he used to com-
pose °chiefly, in winter.

lie city of Marseilte-e, in France,
was once afflicted with the plague. So
-terrible wa.s it that it "eidseci parents to
forsake children, itnd children forgot
their obligations to flipir own parents.
The city became as a desert, and fune-
rals were constantly passing through its
streets. Everybody was sad, for no-
fiody could stop the ravages of the
plague. The phy-sicians could do noth-
ing, and as they met one day to talk
over the matter and see if something
ceuld not be done to prevent this great
destruction of life, it -was decided that
nothing could be effected' withotit open-
ing: a corpse .in order to find ,on t the
mysterious character of the disease.' All
agreed.upon. the plan, but who shall be
the Victim.? .it being pertain that he
wile should make the examination wo'd
certainly die soon after. There was a
clea.d,panse. Suddenly,. one Of the most
celebrated physicians, a. Mall in the
prime of life, rose flora his seai. and
said, "Be it so ; I devote myself to the
safety of my country. Before this nye
merous assenibly I swear, in the name
of haimanity and religion, that to -mor-
row at the break of day I will disseet a,
corpse, and write down as I proceed
what I observe." He immediately left
the room, and, as he was rich, he made
out a will, and spent the night in reli-
gious exercises. • During the day a man
had died in his house of the plagueeand
at daybreak on the following the -phy-
sician, who's name was Guyon, entered
the rotim. and made.- the necessary.ex-
aminations, writing, down...all his
cal observations. , then left', e
r"oom,. threw the papers into a vase of
vinegar that they might not convey the
disease to, another and retired te a ,00n-
veniellt place, where he died in twelve
hours.

borir on the 27th of, April, 1822. His
birthphice was Point Pleasure, Ohio,
on the Ohio River, 25 miles above
'Cincinnati. He entered West Point,
July 1, 1849.and graduated on the 30th
of June, 1853, when he was in his 22d
year. He served a short time in the
regular army, and then entered civil
life. As soon, as the rebellion broke
out he offeredhisservices to Governor
(now Senator) Yates of Illinois, where
he then - resided, and was appointed
••Aid on the Governor's •staff, with" the
positicn of mustering officer of volun-
teers_ He soon demanded field service
and was appointed to the Colonelcy of
the 21st regiment of Illinois Volunteer.s.
With regiment he entered. upon 'duty
in Missouri, quickly rose to the rank
of Brigade -General, afterwards [by
special act of Congress] Lieutenant -
General, and finally (by special enact?
ment) General, .with the commancl. of
all the armies of the Unien. During'
this . time he fought numerous great
battles—from Eort Donaldson to Rich;
mond—and was admitted on all hands
to be a soldier Whose energy and genius
crushed the rebellion and saved the
Vrtion. He has now entered, upon
another task, which will reip4e
greater abilities, but the country con-
fides in him, and we firmly believe
that the public confidence. will be justi-
fied by his administration.

THE SUN'S -ATMOSPHERE. TheAca.de-
my of Sciences, of Paris has lately re-
ceived additional details from Mr. Jans-
sen regarding his discovery,. nearly
simulataneomly with Mr. Lockyer, of
an incandeicent atmosphere—consist-
ing principally, if not entirely, of hy-
drogen ---surrounding liuninous por,
tion cf the sun. This astronomer was
Sent, as may be remembered by our
readers, to Simla, in the Hiramalaya
mountains, to observ the total eclipse
of the sun in August last; and, while
there, -made the discovery referred to.
He states in his last communication,
that this atmosphere is low down, and
with 'a -very regular level, sometimes
not passing beyond the projections of
the luminous atmosphere, and forming
a kind of vault or canopy, continuous
with the protruberances, the general
composition of which appears to be the
same as that of this atmosphere, and to
he simply raised and sometimes detach-
ed Or isolated portions of it. The pre-
sence of this atmosphere is said by
Mr. Jassen. to explain the phenomena
of refraction: on the solar surface, re-
vealed by the study cf the spots, and
to play an important part in all the
luminous phenomena of the visible en-
velope, of the sun, and particularly of
the froulaa of bright streaks. _ It is, said
to be certain that it is to this atmos-
phere that is principally due that dimi-
nution of luminous, heating and photo-
graphing intensity presented in so re-
markable a manner along the border of
the solar .disc.
