THE NATIVE AMERICAN
For The Natipe american.

Mn. EpIToR: In the first number OF nc ~ :.
mocrat;c Review and United States Magazine
there anneared an article entitled Chances al
Conoress No. IL in which was mlnglng oil
sweets and bitters-at one time prasing MEM
her and in the next breath abusing him with all
the emphasis of party prejudice and personal dis
like. One member, in particular, the honorable
Henry A. Wse,) was handled with the utmost
severity; and, among other epithcts, that of 'mo-
nomaniac' was levelled at him. The writer
of those Chances, as originally given in to the
editors, never made use of bitter epthets in treat
ing of Mr.. Wise, and was surprised to find his
descriptions so materially altered. Determined,
therefore, to continue my work, | have avaled
myself of your consent to let them appear IN the
s.Native," without alteration. | am glad that your
paper is established, for it will afford an oportu-
nifty to all native-born Americans to write freely
their sentiments against the encroachments OF
aliens. Ifmy sketches will afford qualification to
your readers, will feel happy, and shall go on
with my difficult but delightful task of denea-
ting, hastily to be sure, the members of the
American Congress.
In no case will | introduce party reflections, fo'
! believe that public men can be viewed in othe
lights, than as the mere tools of passion and thu
representatives of party.
In justice to the highly respectable corps 0
Reporters, have only to say, that an injustic'
was done them, by the Democratic Review, wher
its editors announced my :. Chances = writer

n Hairless Horse.--A horse which is now ex-
hibltlng at Tattersalls, is certainly great Gu
rlosity. There is not hair on any part of his
body, from his ears to his tail, nor on any Of his
limbs. He is perfectly formed and idocie ami
mall and his skin is as smooth and as soft as 4
lady s, or as the great anaconda's. Startle not.

dam was frightened almost to death at the sight
OF an elephant, and her foal resembles the object
OF her dread, in colour, and somewhat in his mode
OF standing. He is said to be a quick walker and
fast trotter His original propretor lis reported
was as much frightened at his hairless appear

anxious to get rid Of him, that he gave him away

years old, and sold him to his present owner for

Simplicity of Mahommedan Worsh;n.-.Tb,

Simplicity Of Mahommedan Worship.--The
mode OF worship in the mosques is extremely
simple. Every one, upon entering, engages in
private devotion; and all, from the sultan to the
meanest peasant, are upon an equality within the
mosque. After the private devotions are con-
cuded, the assembly is addressed by the priest in
a discourse generally illustrative Of the practical
duties Of life. Among all the different forms of
false religion, there is none less revolving to the
Christians feelings than that of the Arabian inn
postor They acknowledge the true God, and his
son Jesus Christ, and many Of the Patriarchal
fathers, and old Testament records; but have min
ged up with the simple worship of Christians,
many of the traditions of the Jews, and still more
Of the inventions of that ingenious usurper, who
knew well how to pamper the depraved appetites
OF those over whom he sought TO weave the web
of his new religion, in which he declares himself
to be the Prophet of the Most High.

Dauenport's Electro Magnetic Machines.--
Important Experiment. . Yesterday two ma
chimes, now being constructed by Davenport and
Cook, were put in motion in the presence Of Sc
vera editors, and twenty thirty other citizens,
and although both machines are incomplete, the
experiment was highly satisfactory to the spec
tators, clearly demonstrating that the power Of
Electro-Magnetism may, by machinery, be null
hplied to an indefinite extent. One of these ma
chimes, with 46s small magnets, weighing FIVE
pounds each, will be equal to a two-horse power,
and the other, with l6 large magnets, weighing
SO pounds each, is calculated for one-horse
power. Only about one-third Of the magnets
were used in the experiment yesterday. In the
course of week or two one of these machines,
we understand, will be applied to Napier print
ing press, when we shall endeavor to give de-
tailed description Of the engine, and apparatus.
Wecongrathlate Mr.. Davenport on the evidence
he has given that he is SO far ahead of all experi-
menters in Electro Magnetism in Europe or Ame-
RIGA, and we trust that he may meet with the en-
couragement which is SO justly his due.-N. r.

LEmA.--By E. Il. BuLwER, ESQ. The presses
of the Harper establishment are scarcely rested
from their toll in pouring forth edition after edi
ton of Ernest Maltravers, when the same author
calls them once more into activity; the g last new
Novel;" by the author of Pelham, has but little
more than reached the distant readers of the Far
West, when another follows close upon its heels,
to run the wide career Of popularity. From
England, in 1887, the creative fancy Of the novel
ist turns back to the romantic age of Spanish
history-to the fading splendors of the Moorish
dominion, and the warlike Court of Ferdinand
and Isabella. In word, the Harpers have Just
published Lila, tale of the siege of Grenada, by
the prolific author of the Disowned and Eugene
Aram. It is a brilliant and exciting story, which
thousands will read with avidity, and Of which
none will complain, except that it is not longer

Great Conyaagration.--At half past II o'clock
yesterday morning, fire broke out in a stable in
Sixth street, near Avenue D, which was destroy
ed. The wind was very high at the time, and
the fire communicated to the other buildings on
the block bounded by Fifth and Sixth streets and
Avenue D, and the dwellings between Avenue
D and the water; and seventeen fine two and
three story brick buildings, with the greater part
of their contents, and three stables were destroyed;
loss estimated at from As to $4,000 dollars. The
principal part Of the buildings were owned by
insurance. sI. N
By this destructive fire, at the most inclement
season OF the year, thirty families have been de-
prived Of home. and many Of them have lost all
their furniture and clothing. We have collected
the names and residences of those whose dwell
lngs have been destroyed, as correct as we could.
