TENNESSEE.

1t is pretty certain that this safe has cast
her vote for Clay. The majority is various
ly estimlted from ten votes up 10 $50. A
paper before us which pro fesses TO have the
official return sets it down at 1l3 ma ority
for Clay. Close rubbing at all events, and
in the annhilaton of the usual wing MAORI
ty in that state, shows conclusively the STAN
ding of COL Polk in his own state.
Louisiana has gone for Polk; majority as
yet unascertained.
In our table of last week, we set down
the majorities in some of the wing states,
too high. Vermont will probably not reach
9C0J, nor Kentucky 10000.

TIE InfdeI in q GnIe-Durinn The

Tie Infdel in a Cale.-During the late
gale on lake Erie, the steamer Robert Full
Ton, among many other vessels was wrecked.
On board that boat, as was related by pas
senger and published in the religious Herald
was an lnfidel with box of books 10 distri-
butte at the west He was loud and clamo-
rous in proclaiming his infdelity till the gale
came on-but then, like the rest, he was 81
lent, and waited with trembling anxiety the
uncertain fate of the ship. AT length they
drew near the shore and attempted 10 throw
out their anchors, when the whole forward
part of the boat broke off, and the waves
rushed into the cabin. At once the infidel
was on his knees crying for mercy-his voice
could be heard above the raging elements,
begging the Lord TO forgive his blasphemies
till a heavy sea swept over the deck and car
ried him and his books TO the bottom.

Mr.. Polk ought TO, as he doubtless will,
brush them all aside, SO far as regards
every thing that is merely partial aud fac
,ional in each of them; and out OF the fusion
Of the whole together, into one broad mass
Of a common Democracy, will select, for
both the main and the minor supports Of
his government, whatever he can find that,
is best, ablest, wisest. and worihiest in
,hemall. Above all, we trust that disinleE-
terestedness will lever he The principle pass

When the crowh presses round him in all
directions, each exhibiting his emblazoned
credentials of services rendered, or local
popularity possessed, and all eager for the
lavors of honorary or lucrative patronage
which, uahappiiy for him. the Constitution
requires him TO dispense, he will generally
find the worlhiest in the most backward
rank--or rather among those who keep
wholly aloof from The importunale thsong.
Ii Mr. Polk will but bear IN mind this SIM
pie rule, he will save himself vast amount
Of perpIexity; avoid a number Of probable
mistakes; ntusc an immense improvement

PINs.-On the first establishment. Of pin
manufactores in England. they were
deemed an object Of great curiosity; and tho
number of persons through whose hands
pin was compelled TO pass IN the progress
of manufacture. was subIecl Of general
astonishment. How wonderful are the
changes Of time; how singular the effect of
ingenious machinery devoted TO this impor-
tant domestic article. The Boston Trans
crpt in noticing Brown & Eiton's pin man
ulactory, at Waterbury, Conn, says
"Thpy turn out two barrels of pins per
day. The machine is wonderful curious

is run into the machine from a reel, cut to
the requisite length. pointed and headed,
and made finished pin. From this ma
chine they fall into the hopper Of the stick

some diablerie, they are arranged and
stuck upon the papers, and come out per-
feet, only requiring to be packed, to be
ready for SALE This little machine, tended
only by one girl, will do the work Of thirty

So 00,0C0 pins are manufactured in this

A GAME OF DRAFTS PLAYED BETWEEN
BALTIMORE AND WAsHiNGroN Cry, By
MEANS OF MoRsE's TELEGRAHH--On Sa-
iurdav last, for The purpose Of making an
experiment. and testing The accuracy OF
communications made by Morse's colebra-
ted and wonderful Electro Magnetic Tele-
graph, me Of Drafts" or Checkers,
was played through its mysterious agency,
between the cities of Baltimore and Wash
ngton. This is the first game OK the kind
ever played in the United Sll,es, or proba
bly, in The world at so great distance,
(10 miles, in so short a time-it occupying
not quite one hour from the commencement
10 the end. 1t is in fact the first and only
game ever attempted in this country, thus
far by lelegraphc despatch.
After some preliminary communication
upon the Telegraph between Mr.. Vail and
Mr. Rogers, relative TO The mode of play
ing. &c. the game was commenced. Mr.
Alfred Vail, who presides at the Tcle.
graphic Register in Washington, play ed
the game there, and Mr.. John Wills played
in Baltimore, whilst Mr.. Rogers, who
writes upon the Teegraphic Register in
this city, transmitted the moves as directed,
expressing them in numbers. Mr.. Vail,
after sending his compliments, asked if all
was ready. The regards of Mr.. Wills
were also sent TO Mr.. Vail, with the an
swer, yes Then, said Mr.. ", move, and
the following are the moves precisely as
made, without a single error upon the rar,
Of the Telegraph; Baltimore, as it will be
seen, coming out victorious.
Tho baltimore Patriot, from which we
extract the foregoing, then proceeds TO give
the moves made in tho progress of the
game.
AT one poin, Of the game, Wills forgot
TO place his man upon the number men
toned, which created a little confusion
The mistake, however, was promptly cor
recied by the Telegraph. II 81 d, YOU
have neglected to place your man where
you have mentioned; he is now on No.

not only exhibited The accuracy Of the Tel
egraph, but ins,anly called to memory the
mistake.
lie then proceeded till Vail was corncred,
having only his King left, and was, of
Curse, beaten. The Patriot then pro-
cceds:-Thus it will be seen that in 10
