[Selected for the N. O. Demoerat.l lThe First Appllcation of steam-Rumsey the Claimant. James Ruinsey claims the invention of tihe rut steamboat. He says that in the month of tember, 1784, "I exhibited the model of my a t hif Excellency Gen. Washington, at SIn Borko'ey ,ounty. Virginia, ,aleulated 1Q4' stmming the current of rapid rivers. I ap CUed myself with unremitting attention to per - thmy -stmoentine , and made such progrerss 11I that fail and onsuling sprin that mty experl mhnta assured me the perfeotion of such a ma hine as within my reach. I therefore wrote Sn. Washington. the l0th of March, 175., atI Intended apelying steam power to a boat ilt after the model of the boat he saw at Bath.' THg FIRST TRIAL. Be~lELggy COUNTY. Virginia. This day came Charles Morrow before me, one of the justices of the peace for the aforesaid county, and made oath: That in the course of the summer of 1785, James Rumsoy had a boat built near the town of Bath. Joseph Barnes Was sent to Baltimore in order to have some .tachinery cast that he then understood the oawas to be propelled by steam: that about -hle t of December it appeared to the said ahrl Murrow that the whole of the machinery was ready to be Ilxod to the boat which came down to the falls of the Shenandoah for experi et, but the tee prevented It for the winter. In spring of 1784; the improvem,.nts on the ma Ohery being completed, the first trial was a, he said Ch rrles Morrow being on boardt Sse went against the current at the rate of two miles an hour, until the steam escaped by the mperfection of the machinery; the heat issoled the soft solder, which had before roved sufficient for cementing the sundry parts, and hard solder had to be ied in the repairs' that in the spring ofl. 7 the boat was repaired and made another , moving up the river against the current, h about two tons aboard besides the ma . ery, at the rate of two miles an hour. But eO new boiler was so badly made that it opened at everal of its joints, which let great quantl es of steam escape. It is h s opinion that it may ebrought to answer very valuable purposes d may be applied to a ship of the largestsaize, ving no external application whatever. Gen, ashfgton, In a letter written in 1787 to Gov. hoe. Johnson, of Virginia, says: "It is proper r me to herewith say that some time after my atorview with Mr. Rumsney Mr. Fitch called otauý me on his way to Richmond, and explain ins his scheme, wanted a letter from me intro s dilg fhith to the Assembly of this State, the iing of which I declined, and went so far as tiform him that though I was enjoined not to disclose the principle of Mr. Rumsoy's dis Povery, yet I would venture to assure him that the thought of applying steam was not original but had beeon mentioned to me by Mr. Bumsey.'s WHAT RUMSIY HAYS. Lost it should be suggested that. I have bor rowed my prncilple from Mr. Fitch, I have been t the pains ot proving incontestibly theat my Iea of a boat to be worked by steam was a con siderable time before his, and that it had been Ipeptioned in Kentucky (from whence I am told he braottabht his boat) by a gentleman to whom I elmmrltdeated it previos to his departure to thateountry. This was Michael Bodinger, who meotitontl this to Mr. Fitch. Bodinger, In an affidyit,l tates that before the month of March, 17$4, Iu~tey stated that he was of the opinion t &at a beat might be constructed to work by team; that he would make the attempt, and that he luentlolned some of the machinery necessary to put it in practice, anti that during residetce of eighteen months in Kentucky he uenty made mention of Rumsey's Idea. I1788 the Assembly of Vi rginit gave Iltumsey the right for a ilumler f4 years«o make ma ohinery, boilers. and build steamboats. umseyr says: , he following expianation will give a general idea or time principles by which team acts on my boat. In the bottom of the 1 , on the kelson. there is a trunk, the after en of whloh is open and terminates at the stern-posr. Oni the closed end of the trunk tands a cylinder '7 feet long. From this cylin der there Is a communication with the water nder the boat. There is another communlca on whieh lets water tass freely from the cylin der to the trunk, through which it in dtllsharged at the ster. The utipercylinder acts as a steam gn and receives Its steam from a boiler un detitn piston, whoich is then carried nop to time to p of the cylinder by steam. 'I hey then shut -,the communleaoion from the holler and open .nother to discharge the steam for condonsae tion. By this means the atmosphore acts upon the piston of tie upper cylinder, and its force is 1 conveyed to the piston I the lower cylinder by the connecting bolt, which forces the water then 1 in the lowetr cylinder throuah the trunk with considerable, velocity, the reaction of which on the other endi of the trunk- is the power that propels the boat forward. [NOTa -To slmpllty this explanation: The Rumsey englte had two cylinders with forcni 1umps, thne in turn forcing the water through trunks fastened to the kelson, the reaction ilwhich was the propelling power.--ED.

Those having used and tested the value of this compound are respectfully informed that it can be had at the Drug Store of I. L. LYON and many other druggists of this city. To the uninitiated and skeptical I will say that, in placing it before the public. I have de viated from the whole conclave of inventors "of the surest and best anti-bilious medie'nes" etc. I allude to their invariable secresy of ingre dients. The usual and only other mode in pro ducing BSulphuretted Iron is by the hydrogen process, where it is made by hundreds of pounds for the commerce of the world, and is not to be depended on, as it contains too great a proportion of carbon (charcoal) which cannot be avoided in the process of their manufac turing it. This Sulphuret of Refined Steel is the pure suiphuret of steel, having not a particle of for eign matter in its combination. It is made by hand. Those eminent professors of chemistf and physicians of France, together with the United Btates Dispensatory, state that the great object in adminiftering Iron is to get the greatest uantity into the gastric juice of the stomach, as t is intendad to renovate and purify the blood, and its known value as a tonic, myt W.
