raphy & an Inventor.
!
- It has been observed that -Men of ex-
Iraordiaary inventive facilitY, whether
in literature or the' industrial arts,
usually have a spice id the vagabond
about them, and a glance at the early
life of Thomas Alvah Edison, confirms
tthe truth of the apothegm. it was, a .
leess-up With Shakespeare when he went
to London with a few • rhymes and son-
nets in. his pocket, whether he should
turn (stip the father of English drama or
a sixteenth century tramp. ' There is
no doubt that the boys at , Stratford
called Shakespeare Bill, for the bard of
Mon as that 'krtof a boy, and there
is living evidence that the boy a at Milan,
-Ohio, where, in February, 1847; young
Edison!was born, oalled him Tom—not
Thomas, as they might have 'done with
a more dignified. lad. Possibly it was
lazy Tom, or good-natured.1 Tom, or
good-for-nothing Tom, or Tom with
some epithet that will not bear the day-
light q type—for Milan was (and is) an
obscure canal village in Ohio, and. the
. niceties of well-bred propriety are not
highly respected in such places. He
knew all the songs of the , canalmen
(canaille) before he was five years old,
and lisped in homely nu-mbers, "Oh 1
for a life on the ragin.' canawl," ere he
had. fairly learned his alphabet. When
he was a little boy, his father, still liv-
ing at the age of 74, moved. to Port
Huron, an obscure village in the lake
cou-ntry. .The eld gentleman had a dis-
eursive habit of mind, and has been by
turns ! tailor, nurseryman, ;dealer in-
grain, 1.uniberman, farmer, almost ev-
erything in the calendar of industry and
husineas, without remarkable success
in amyl. His grandfather lived to be
102 years old, and. his great-gtanclfather
103. Edison expects to be 110 at the
time of his death, and to sed the uni-
verse lighted by electricity. That is
possible, as he is now only 31'and it
ill
wbe1957 when he fin y takes his
departre. Edison's mo er was well
educated, and a New 4 ngladacl school
raistreas when his father married- her
and migrated to the wilds of the West.
What he knew of reading, -writing and
arithnaetio he learned at h4 mother's
knee; vhat he knows of science he
taught Ithinaself with an old text -book on
Qualita'pve Analysis, and a laboratory°. in
*railroad car. There was nothing in
his bovi-life to indicate his futnre career.;
except" itlaat he swallowed bOoks, from
flume' England tc, Gibbon's Rome, and
the Peimy Encyclopedia, before he was
10 yea -115 old. He was an odd boy, gen-
erally liplf asleep, but with the swoop of
lightning evh.en..he was aroused.
Two years later, he began li e for him-
self as train -boy on the Gredid Truuk
Railroald, and went through an appren-
ticeship calculated to develop his latent
shrewdness, mother wit, cleverness and
self-poiae to the utmost. It Was Carlyle
who ,said. that self -poise Makes the
man ; a man who cannot balance him-
self comfortably on a pin's point, is
bound to be a nobody all his life; and
to learn the art of balancing yourself
on a pin's point, there is nothiug like a
few months' service as train -boy, or a
few mouths' Yagabondago as newsboy
or bootblack. The boy was eifterpris-
ing, want into business with a will, and
soon had four assistants. An old, de-
faced daguerreotype taken at this period
of his life, shows a little fellow, with a
eound, !. good-natured face, and dirty
hauds, i folding newspapers. The lips
are wreathed with an expressive grin;
it is Horace Greeley in miniature, with
a glazed cap on the back of his head,
ancl a greasy muffler around. his neck.
But the face, has an expression of ster-
ling honesty that one seldom meets in
train -boys; and, withal, there is a dream
in the boy's eyes that tells volumes to
an acute observer—that far away expression of thinking of sonaething else,
that marks the strange, double life of
the man of extraordinary intellect in the
most Ordinary affairs.
His eecentricity soon found ,a way to
. make an exhibition of itself. '-He had
his headquarters in the smoking section
of an ota baggage car, mad here. he sur-
rounded'hinaself with bottles and sec-
ond-hand. retorts, and conducted his
rude exberiments while the thrain was
rusnin ! along 'at the tate of 30 miles an
hour, the car, -which was epringlessi

Grand Trunk Herald—a little

traveller, and got a notice in the Lon-
don Tilnes as the first venture of the
kind ever essayed on a, railWay train.

'The iitelrary.matter was contributed by

now appropriate the cellar of his
father's house at ort Huron to the pur-
poses of experi tints in telegraphy,
where he constru ted batteries out of
stovepipe wire, o d bottles, rusty nails,
and such scra,ps zinc as he could pick
up about the hou e, or about other peo-
ple's houses, whi h were all the same
to the lawless yo ng scientist, and his
equally lawless ssistants. But what
ie knew' of tele aphing as a practical
rt, came about t rough an act of hero-
sm. One day at ort -Clemens he rush -
d before an adva cing train, and saved.
the station mas 's little boy from in-
stant death. Tis man was grateful,
and taught him t. telegraph. After this
he turned shoe ker, but did not find
it to his liking, a d so at last obtained
a regular situatio as an assistant op-
rator. He now aye his soul to elec-
trical science wit the fanaticism of a
Henry or a Fara ay, and had. soon dis-
Covered what he tyled " etheric force"
—imperceptible o the galvanometer,
capable of carts ng a spark to leap
through 30 feet o empty space, probab-
ly the "odic fore "of the German, elec-
tricians. Edisor.'s history, from the
date when he recovered the connection
between Port Huron and Sarnia (just
,
across the river) with the notes of a
steam whistle, is one of desultory wan-
derings : but he was one of those spirits
whom a mythology follows --)who evolve
anecdotal reminiscences as they journey
from town to town. The man may die
in a farmer's barnsomewinter's' night,
but the mytholo • lives. At Stratford,
Canada, he lost situation by rigging a
wheel to report the word " six " to the
manager every alf hour, to prove that
he had not falle asleep at his post;
another at India apolis, because he kept
he press report waiting while he was
engaged in expo ments intended to de-
velop new and m re rapid methods of
reception and tr nsmission. At Mem-
phis, 1864, while he, was, working out
his great idea of duplex transmission,
he was sudden y turned adrift. At
Louisville. one night, hetripped over a
carboy of sulphuric acid that he had
snauggled into the offi e for his own ex-
periments, and ranied the furniture of
a banker's office n th story beneath.
Of course, he w B sen about his busi-
ness, with more curs s than coppers.
At Cincinnati t ere as a library too
near the office, aid he lost his situation
through misdire irted z al for knowledge.
But a curious fa th. ii the" sweet by
and by " kept a ive is ambition. In
1868 a gawky yo ng f llow appeared in
he,Boston office Fie was assigned to
Ike 'New York re, perated at this
end by a telegra er s rapid and ex-
pert that nobody could follow him. The
New York roan ave the new hand one,
trial at the top o ' his Speed. It was a
case of articulat ' lightning. But the
gawky Western 1 oy was equal to the
occasioe., and when he got through the
New York mani shouted through the
attery, "Who the devil are you, any -
ow ?" The reply went back by light-
iag, "I'm Tom Edison, old boy. Shake
ands, and try i again !" The advice
was good, but th New York operator
did not think belt to t ke it. Here he
tried his duplex, yste . It failed, and
he was turned a. ift gain as an incor-
rigible 13ohemia a . 11 lf in desperation,
half in hope that ther might be a place
or him somew ere, e turned up , in
ew York, after his oston adventure
with duplex tra smis ion; and here a
appy accident roved the pivot upon
which his career turn d. The indica-
tor of the Gold nd St ck Company got
out of order at a criti et1 moment, and
the raw -looking ount y boy repaired it.
His cause was n w t ken up by Mr.
Orton, of the W stern Union Telegraph
Company, with he quick insight that
made that gen-ti man' S success in the
world.; and his subeequent triumphs
have justified th first impression of his
' -stinguished pa ron. His duplex trans-
ission has beco e quadruplex trans-
ission. He h s amassed a fortune,
married, and ha a little Tom Edison

of wandering: ' The mountain is pass -
