' Robert Fulton started a ferryboat line between Jersey City and this city. It consisted of one boat. Stevens fol- 7 lowed with a boat from Hoboken in 1811, but was forced to withdraw, as it interfered with Fulton's fpeciaj . priv ilege. Thereupon the Colonel being driven from the river, ran his boat to New Brunswick, and afterward to Philadelphia. The engine of this boat Is the relic that is now treasured at Stevens' In stitute. ' It is a nigh pressure condens ing engine, water tubular boiler and twin screw. It drove the Colonel's boat at the rateof eighroilos an hour, which was considered, perfectly mar velous. ' One feature of the mactine is that several of its joints are made of mal leable iron, which was rnisly used in those days. Attention is particularly called to the fact by tbe admirers of Stevens that it is a propeller engine, and that this method of propulsion, af terhaving been laid aide fr more thkn half a century, ba revived, arid now has almost entirely superceded the side-w heeler in ocean navigation. The old engine is a great curiosity to mechanics. It ba traveled about con siderably, and everywhere has been critically examined. It was on exhibition in 1851 t the World's Fair, and again in 1876 it was painted up and taken to tbe Centennial where it was awarded a place of honor in Machinery Hall.

The Pepalallaa' mf ihe Vailed Mf Ihe Last Veoaae. WAsniNOTON, Oct. 81. The census office to-day announced tbe population of the United States as shown by tbe first count of persons and families, ex clusive of white persons In Indian Ter ritory, Indians on reservations and iu Alaska, to be 72,480,540. These figures may be slightly changed by later and more exact compilations, but such changes will not be materia'. In 1880 the population was 50,155,788. The Increase of the population in the 10 years intervening, was 12,344,797, and the per cent age of tbe Increase was 24.5. In 1870 the population was slat ed as 88,559,371. According . to these figures tbe absolute Increase in tbe de cade between 1880 and 1890, was 11, 607, 412, and the per eenUge of in crease was 80.08. The population of Virginia is placed at 1,648,911, an increase of 136,366 dur ing the past ten years ; that of Sorth Carolina, 1617,340, an increase since 1880 of 217,590.

Tbe Blrlb Kale efFraaee, The decrease in the birth rate of France, with its effect on tbe future population of that country, hat long been a subject of debate among its public men. Statistics have shown that this decrease baa been going . on for years. It now turns out tbnt Eng land and Wales are Iu a similar condi tion. Tbe returns of the Registrar General for England aod Wales show that tbe excess of births ever deaths has beon steadily declining for several years. In 1889 the excess was 8n7, 224, wbilo, accorJing to the results tf the last two cenr.us years, tho Increase should bare been 89,423. The birth rite was also remarkable low, being 25 per thousand below the average of tbe previous decade, while the marriage rate has not corresponded to tbe in creased prosperity of the country. These statistics, with tbe large emigra tion, show, In the opinion of the New York News, that In time there will oease to be an increase in the population of Great Brit Ian, providing the rate of de crease in birth continues. But Eng land has more population now than she can well support and this may be Nature's way of adjusliog herelf to man's requirements. Literally a Werl.Pieter, Mr. Diamond, of No. 63 East Sixty- ninth street, has made a remarkable portrait of Thomas. W. Palmer, direo- tor of the Chicago World's Fair. The picture is made with a pen, and the features are produced In wHttsn words giving a history of tho organization of tbe fair up to tbe present date. There is not a single line In tbe entire pic ture8; even In the most delicate shad- ng, which is not part of a written let ter. Tbe picture would take about the space of an ordinary columo cut tbe Press. Although there are enough words ia the picture to fill newspaper column, so skillfully Is the work done that every word mar be read with the naked eye.

The art of door banging b one that apparently comes by divine right to every human, being, and that art is more carefully developed than many other natural gifts that would, with proper cultivation, enable the happy possessor to make qulta as much noise in the world and with leas incoavenieoce and annoyance to others.

They will point to fur off ages when ' man in bis natural state used to doss his Jaws with a far echoing snap ttporj the human flesh ho devoured; to a lit tie later period, when in a more en lightened state, he swung heavy prison doors upon his captives ; to even a later age, when, his first musical ntUmt beginning to blossom, he heralded to his victims' their approaahing death through the enlivening strains of the) tom-tom; ' ' " .. -' ' Now In this age of seeming oultiva tion the foregoing, methods of pro claiming oar immediate personality are; happily forbidden, but there is no law, written or unwritten, against thai eviL Which is apparently inherent and IrracuV caL But perhaps ihat Utopia, toward which present writers declare we are progressing, win be a land innocent oi ' other than tent like accommodations for family life, whore, consequently, the restlessness which has hitherto found vent in door banging may spend itself In pursuits which will be bene ffcial, not annoying, to the bumad race, Milwaukee Wisconsin.
