Discoveries of the It is remarkable how the mind of the world has run into scientific investigation during the last fifty years, and what achievements it has affected in that, short period. Fulton launched the first steamboat in , ..... aiu j.wu steamboats traversing the waters of America alone. 111 1825 the first railroad was put in operation in Massachusetts. In 1800 there was not a single railroad in the world. In the Untied States alone there are now 24,500 miles of railroad; in Europe, 24,223; and in the whole world, 51,265. The electric telegraph had its beginning in 1843. The electro-magnet was discovered in 1 821, and electrotyping is a latter invention. Hoe’:, printing press, capable of printing 10.0G0 copies an hour, is a very re. cent discovery. Gaslight was unknown in 1800, now I p 1 . . every city and town or any pretence is lighted with it, and we have the announcement of a still greater discovery, by | which light, beat and motive power, may all be produced from water, with scarce- : ly any cost.

Washington’s Farewell Address. 1 The statement that this relic was late- ' ly stolen from the State Department in 1 Washington must be erroneous as it is ’ said it never was in the possession of the [ Government.

Paymaster Robbed —Four Thousand Dollars Stolen—Ms. Smith, paymaster on the Cleavland and Pittsburgh Railroad, was robbed of 84,000 in Slubenvil e on Thursday night. Mr. S, it. woo d appear, called at the ‘W ashington Hall in the above town, ar d left his carpel ba<r containing §4,000 in notes, oR the. Hartford Bank, and a large amount ul gold ami silver, behind the office counter It was afterwards placed in the room in (which valuable baggage is stored, but during the night some adroit thief gained access to it, and rilled it of the notes, but did not touch the gold or The loss was not discovered until Mr. Smith was handed the bag in the mornI ine and then the thief had so disposed of his plunder, that all efforts to discover it I proved futile. The notes being nearly i all on the same bank may yet lead to the : detection of the thief though tb.ere is now I but a poor prospect of such a result.

Good Humor.—Good humor is as bright color in tlm web of life; but self-denial on- ■ lv can make it a fast color. A person who is the slave of seltiishness has so many wants of his own to be supplied, so many interest of his own to euppoit and . defend, that he has no leisure to study the wants and interests of others. It isimpossible that he should be happy himself, or mark others around him so. Refused Freedom. —At the last Circut Court of Pulaski county, Virginia Anderson Newman applied to Judge F niton . for leave to enslave himself, alleging that he would rather be a slave in Virginia thana freeman in a free State. He was valued at 81,100. Mr. A. Owens,as his. master, paid one half —the amount into court and resumed the responsibility of Newman’s future conduct. > ——> n » ; , The man who burst into tears has been put together again

A’l hriUing blory. The New York Commercial Advertiser 1 tells the following thrilling tale. Last fall, a woman residing in the viciutiy of Worcester was picking blackbei ■ lies in a field near the house, having with i.ci tier only child, a bright eyed little fellow of less than a year old. The babe sat upon the ground amusing itself with i grasping at clumps of yellow weed that ' grew within rea •!>, arid eating berries brought- him from time to time bv his ! mother.

The latter at length, intent upon gathering the fine passed around a rock which hid her child from view. She was about to return to him, when, bearing him laughing and crowing in great glee, and thinking that he must be safe as long as he whs so happy, she remained a little longer where she was. Suddenly the little voice ceased, and after a moment’s delay the voting mother ' stepped upon the rock and looked over, expecting to see her babe asleep; instead of which, he was sitting perfectly motionless, his lips parted, and bis wide oplen eyes fixed with a singular expression upon some object w hich at first she was 1 unable to decern.

But who can judge of her horror when, on closer scrutiny, she perceived, some four oi tire feet from her infant, a rattlesnake, with glittering eyes fastened upon his, and nearing him by an almost imperceptible motion. The sight of her darling’s peril so nearly paralized her, that for an instant she half believed the dreadful fascination had extended to herself but the certainty that, unless she was the instrument of salvation to her child, be was inevitably lost, in some degree restored her power. She glanced wildly around for something that might be used as a weapon, but nothing appeared and already the venomous reptile had passed over half the snace.wluei* iVohi-ht she cov.w-d the snake with it, and stood upon it to prevent its escape. The churn) was broken —the child mored, swayed to one side, and began to sob’ At the same time the mother recovered her voice and screamed for aid retained herpositicu until it arrived, when the cause of her terrible fright was UCjpatched.

The New F.pidemic—Brain l ever. The Oswego Times says that the extent of the new epidemic known by the name of brain fever, and which baffles all the skill of physicians, is truly alarm-in-r throughout Madison and Onandagn counties. A gentleman who has lately visited the former county, informs that in some localities the people are leaving in alarm a.id dismay, leople aio frequently attacked with this remarkable malady very suddenly, soon become insane and die in a few hours. Ae do not know that any have recovered whin once attacked by the disease. Daune Brown and Richard Thomas, twopromi- • nent lawyers of Madison county, have fallen victims to it, and we are told m ■ some of the villages deaths occur daily.

some ut vuv f As yet lhere is no rational explanation ot the disease. By some it is asenbed to the use of Western pork; but it seems to us that the fact of its ravages being confined to two counties, forbids the supposition. If it is caused by eating the Western pork, the whole State would sutler more or less, and not particular localities, j Onandaga seems to be less aficcted by ' scourge than Madison.

Peach Three Border —Tansy.— 11m editor of the Newburry (S. C.) Sun says that we saw it stated two years ago m an agricultural journal that these pests could be driven from peach trees by tansy. We planted it at the roots of some ten or twelve trees, and not one of them have been disturbed, whilst others are injured, i This spring wo intend planting it around 1 all.

An old German Prolessor collected a valuable cabinet of curiosities, which he I hiirhly prized. One morning a friend ,-ame to tell him of a 'ery unpleasant eircumstance-that he bad seen a man Leet up a ladder into a window of the professor's house. ‘lnto which window., ; tried the philospher. ‘I am sorry to say, I replied his friend, ‘it was your daugh- ' ter’s.’ ‘Oh, man!’ said the other ‘you almost frightened me; 1 thought lie had i been into the cabinet!’
