YANKEE BLAcK5sTTTH.--Pr HENRY, of Princeton, Il Is known, has made some important discoveries in eleclro-mau. netism, and has produceda magnet to lift 2,500 lbs., il belng however still a slesid- erttff h0ia t5 coutfo this tsi efiorilrous power. so as 10 apply t to practical use. By the snbjoned note from Professor EATON, of Eray, this desideralum, Ii appears, has been attaned by New England blacksmith:

 Nal Iat.

 "An obscure blacksmith, of Bran don, Vermont, one mile south of Mddlebury Col- lege, happened accidentally to become ac- quainted with Professor Henry's discoveries ln Electro -Mangnetism. Possessing one of those minds which cannot be confined 10 the limits of a blacksmith shop--nor any shop less than the canopy of Heaven ---he applied this power 10 the astonishment of scientific mechanics. He turns three hor. izantal wheels around 50 times per second with this power. The wheels and shaft weigh II lbs. He has convinced Profess Hors HENRY and BAcnE, that the power is sufficient for strong machinery. A deiail- account of it will appear in the next number of Silliman's Journal. The Hon. STE- rHEN VAN RENSSELAER, has purchased bis first constructed machine Cor modol) for the Rensselaer, Institute in Troy, as a piece of school apparatus. No chemical nor phil. i osophica apparatus can hereafter be con sidefed perfect without Ii. Whatever may he is fafe in Mechanics, it ,siI catise tiiis name of THoMAs DAVENPORT, fthe in- yentor, to accompany that of Professor HENRY 10 the ends of the earth.

 Professor BAoHE, of Philadelphia, and Professor TURNER, of Middlebnry, Yer mont have given opinions in wsting that Mr. D's application of Profession HENnY'a discoveries may be made to move heavy machinery for useful purposes. According to their views, another LIVINGSTON might make another FuLTos of the Brandon blackmsth.''
