INTERESTING RETROSPECT-
fttmarkabte discoveries, .inventions, yc,

Tt is related that one of a party of
traveller's, while ktanding on one of the
knountains of Switzerland, was so trans
ported with the beauties ot tne scenery
spread oeiore nun, u- .
thusiasm he declared 44 he never had seen
theeaua' of such scenery, and he was sure
there was nothing UKe it in Europe, ior nc
had travelled through every country in it-''
A German at his side said, -he had never
seen its like with but a sin-le exception,
nd he named a certaid mountain in the
ii . .t o.ii which he had
fvisUedafew weeks before." lhe for-
mer gentleman hung down nu,
merely remarking -that, although he had
been on that mountain olten, he never
thought much about it." That mountain

have been done by inventors since that
time. In 1800 there was not a single
Vrrt in lhe wnrld. In 1807 Fulton
laiinrlipd th Clermont, which made
nniKATf in Albanv in 32 hours. At that
time The mode of travel was by schooners
and sloops, which were frequently six days

same distance in 8 hours and some oi
them lare enough to stow the Clermont
on their 'forward decks. No steamboat
had broke the waters of the Mississippi
previous to 1815 ; the voyage from Cin
cinnati to New Orleans was a tremendous
undertaking, and occupied more tune than
a steamboat would now take to circum
navigate the globe.
In Kurope, steamboats were unknown
until 1814, and no sea was regularly navi
,n..I.,mhn.,t4i.ntil 1848. It in 1800
there was no steamship in the wide world,
where is the country now where they are
not seen, and where they are not exercis
ing a most important intluence r No
country in the world.
Tlie steamboat is not the only important
invention of the last hall century the
progress of invention is just as marked in
other departments of discovery: Look at

most perfect state it is a near approach
to the spiritual and physical combination.
Within thre. months "the Queen ot Eng
land was transported from the interior ol
Qrnflomt i,x l.i.nilnn. n distance of 400
miles in ten hours. In 1800 the same
journey could not be accomplished in less
than eight days. If the steamboat has
revolutionized intercommunication by riv
er and sea, the locomotive has done more

there was not a single locomotive in the
world, nor tor 20 years after, vrz. : the

that the sunlight would be used for a lim-
nui'u ranri! w (ill 1.1 h:ivi. l-iMieved it ? Not
one ; and yet this has been done. When
M. Daguerre, a distinguished chemist of
Paris, first published, in 1836, that he had
discovered a method of taking pictures on
metal plates by the sun, the public regard
ed his metal tablets with feelings of wond
er. And if this discovery has not yet pro
duced such important results, nor aftecteiC
the customs of society so much as the
steamships and railways, still it is a beauti
ful and wonderful discovery; and the
time may not be far distant when it will
be applied to point the planets as as they
roll in their courses, and thus impress the
1 silence of Voltaism, Electro-magnetism.

was the printing press in comparison to what
it now is? A few years ago there was not a
single printing press driven by steam, now
there is not a paper with a large circula
tion printed without it. From printing
1000, 2000, and 4000 copies per hour,
i,i,fo;n.nnvPfl nress can nrint 10,000,
and the time is at hand when a single
press will be throwing off 16,000.
In what may be termed minor machines,
the inventions and improvements have not
been of minor importance. Fifteen years
ao pins were all made by hand, each was
made of more than one piece, and a num
ber of persons were required to hmsh each
one. A single machine now complete the
operation from bringing to end ; and, m
Waterburg. Conn., 4,080,000 are finished
every dav, and the machinery for counting
and sticking tnem in paueis, ti"''j
ingenious. In all kinds of machinery lor
manufacturing textile fabric, the improve
ments made during the last century would
require volumes to describe them in all
their numberless variations. In weaving,
especially, we behold the most beautiful
carpets, with their most intricate patterns,
woven by a few rods and cams, without
touching them, after
they are set in motion. The rich carpets
of Brussels are now made by steam, and
iron fingers lap the wires, to raise the
figures with more accuracy and speed than
the most skilful weaver. In some depart
ments of manufacture, improvements have
succeeded one another with such rapidity
that one set of machinery has been calculat
ed to last only three years.
In chemistry, what discoveries nave
been made; in tact the whole science has
been remodelled. The discovery of the
voltaic battery was to chemistry what a
strong man is to a great law-giver, in exe
n.itimr hi mandates. In the hands of
n:4w rhftmical coinuounds of what were
supposed mere earthly crystals, were resol
voil intn metals in 1808. and since that
time the most astonishing progress has been
muli, hi th sr.iciice.

come to the aid ot surgery, and arms and

every day, and they are as ignorant of the
operation performed on them as the dead
in their graves.
Gas Light was unknown in 1800; it was
not until two years after that Mardoch
made his first public exhibition at Soho;
since that time his discovery has encircled
the earth, in Europe and America all
the principal cities are lighted with it, and
even New Zealand villages, where no
white man had built his residence in 1800
are now illuminated by the same sub
tip Mir pnt of human comfort and happi
ness." We have it asserted also, and that
but of yesterday, that water is now made
in a New England city, at but little ex
pense, to give both light and heat, to cold,
blind and errins: mortals. In the depart-
there is still as great
ere is behind, in
for making shoes for men, and shoes for
horses; in machines tor maKingau. nu
ments, for a needle to an ancnor, wiwi imi t
of the whole world's history can equ-il the
last half century? Nasmyth's Steam Ham-
mer, which was inventeu. uut a ic j
ago, can be managed with the docility ot a
Iamb. We have now gold and steel quills
instead of goose quills. This is - certainly
the ae of invention. Thu triumphs ot
nnneyht mmnarcd with the
triumphs of inventors. The iron bridges
spanning the sea, the iron ship sailing on
the sea, are greater evidences of mental
power than Austerlitz or Waterloo.
And if the last half century has given
birth to so many grand discoveries and
inventions, is there any reason to doubt
that the future may more than outstrip the
past! We can see none. Hope is point-
ing her finger to the year ivuu.

SCROFULOUS AFFECTION OF THE EYES.
South Kingston. R. I., Oct 11. 1847.
Messrs Sands : Gentlemen My little daughter, when
one year old, was attacked with a scrofulous humor on her
face, which soon after extended into her eyes, causing
almost total blindness in one of them, and disfiguring her
whole face. I employed two physicians to attend her. whs
exhausted their utmost skill to give her relief, but it all
proved useless, and finally one of them remarked to me
that he had known of seme striking' cures effected by
Sands' Sarsaparilla. and advised me to try it. I obtained
one bottle which she commenced using, and before it was
all used up it had effected an entire cure. It is now over
four years since she was cured, and there has been bo re
appearance of the disease, and we are satisfied that it is a
perfect cure. It gives me great pleasure to add that I can
recommend it to every sufferer from anysimilarcomplaint.
