NEW
Boy Inrcittors.
Some of tho most important Inven
tions have been the work of mere boys.
The invention of the valve motion to
the -tain engine was made by a boy.
Waits left the eii.'iue in a very incom
plete con diioii, from the fact that ho
had no way lo open or close the valves,
except by means of levers operated by
the baud, lie et up a huge engine at
one of ihe mines, and a boy was hired
to work these valve levers'; altboii','li
this was not hard work, yet it roijuir
ed con-taut intention. A ho - was
working lbe-e levers, he saw that
parts of the engine moved in the right
direction and at. the exact lime that
he had t ) open tir (dose I lie valves.
lie procured a strong eord and made
one end fast to tho proper part of tho
engine, nnd the other end to the valve
lever; the boy hid the satisfaction of
seeing the engine novo oil" wit'u per
fect regularity ol motion. A snort
lime alter tho i'ercmaii canto around
and found the ivy playing marbles at
the door, jjookingat tho engine ho
boon.-iw the ingenuity" of the boy,
and also the a 1 vantages of so great, an
invention. .Mr. Watts then carried out
the hoy's inventive genius in a prac
tical form, and made the steam en
gine a perfect automatic working ma
chine. The power-loom is the invention of
a farmer boy who. had never seen or
heard of such a thing. 1 Io whittled
one out w ith his j u kknile, an I after
he ha I got it all done, he, with great
cnihu-ivsin, -bowed it to his father,
who at once kicked it all to pieces,
saying hi; would have no bo about
hint that woiill spend his time on
such foolish things. The boy gather
ed iiii the pieces and laid them away.
Soon ..fier i hU his father bound hint
out a an apprentice to a blaek.-inith,
about twelve miles from home, The
hoy wa deiirhLed al the ide tof le.irn

a loom of w hat was left of the one his
lather had broken up, which he show

saw he had uncommon boy as an ap
piviiiii c, and that tie; invention was a
vi ry v il lable oip. lie immediately
had a loom constructed under ihe su
pi i visioa of the hoy; it worked to
ll.eir perfect sal isiaetion, ami tho
blacksmith furnished the means to
manufa.-liire the looms, the boy to re
ceive uiie-iial f ihe prolits. In about

inent for his feo for legal services a
small farm in the neighborhood of

living there, at the time, iu possession.
After his removal tojioston he heard

for several years. . One milliner, us he
journeyed northward with his wife,
in ipiest ol recreation, ho resolved to
turn aside from the traveled road, to
ascertain the true condition of his

woman as the only tenant of his farm.
He asked for water, which was readi

began to make iinjiiirics about her
prosperity, and ihe present condition
of things about her. Sim said tint
she did not own the farm, but that it
belonged lo a- lawyer down iu Bos
ton by the name of Webster,
"lines he often couio to see you, my
good woman :' said .Mr. Webster.
"No, replied she, "ho has never
been near bis land since 1 lived here."
"Well," said he, "what rent does he
make you pay for tho occupancy of
his farm?''
"Kent!" she exclaimed, "I don't
pay him any rent. It is bad enough
lo live hero without paying anything
for il; and if ho don't li x. up the house
1 don't mean to stay hero freezing to
deaih much longer I"
"Well, madam," returned tho kind
hearted proprietor, "it is a pretty
hard case, 1 confess. It you will no
cepi, of this bill ($5) toward your
hold in on for another year, I will
speak lo Mr. Webster when 1 next see
him, and perhaps ho will do some
thing iin ire for you."
