A STREAK OF FAT AND A STREAK OF LEAN
Philosopher Greeley is very savage on some paper
down east, because it says that the new anti-savery
organ, propoedb by Cassius M. Clay, WILDE comprised
OF one-haf abolition and one-half infidelity This
imputatlon on Mr.. Clay's newspaper movement,
arises from the fact that William C. Bell from
Kentucky, the principal agent of Mr.. Clay for the
North, was the President of the Infdel Convention
here, and avowed his disbelief of the Bible, chris
tianiy, and all divine revelation, and which state
ment was afterwards admitted TO be quite correct,
by Cassius NJ Clay, although he had some misgiv-
ings about going SO far himself. We do not see
that Philosopher Greeley has mended the matter by
his handling of it. According to all accounts, this
, newspaper movement, started by Mr. Clay, seems
to be comprised of equal slices of philanthrophy-
MISUNDERSTANDING northumberland and
folly. 1t is, indeed, good deal in the vein of the
recent developments of the abolItionists down east
who denounced all churches and all clergymen at the
May meetings in this city. The whole abolition
party. IN fact, now composed of phirosophers-ini-
dels-oraors, and pretty female apostles, appears to

PUBLIC SPIRIT IN NEW YORK AND BosroS.-The
capitalists and men of business in Boston, at once,
with commendable sagacity and good sense, take
hold of any enterprise that promises to benefit their
city, and hence they have increased Its prosperity to
remarkable extent. 10 New York they act quite
differently. Here they do nothing but fight and
squabble-squabble and fight-separate into rival
ciqucs and form themselves into opposing coteries.
Hencei enterprise languishes and dies, and public
works of the greatest Importance are neglected
from year to year. Here are the Erie Railroad and
Albany Railroad, after being the subject of ten
years quarrellng. as far from completion as ever
Yet this city has capitalists of greater means than
any other in the Union. Why does not John Jacob
sstor, with his fifteen Millions take hold of these
things-construct the Albany Railroad and the Erie
Railroad-immortalissx his name-and give to the
natural greatness of New York all the artificial aids
and appliances that vast wealth, acquired, too, in
this metropolis, can and ought to give.

anxious by the avoidance of hyperbolical eulogism
to guard our readers against forming any extrava-

that constitutes an enduring celebrity, and gives

MIR. EDITOR -
As it frequently occurs that fires originate from
unknown causes, have thought that q few of my
experiments would tend in great measure not only
to put housekeepers on their guard, but to prevent
some of these dreadful cases.
About twelve years ago considerable smoke was
issuing from the door OF a lumber room in the
house of friend, and upon examination it was
found to proceed from keg of old lamp rags which
was under the rubbish from this ! was induced to
make few experiments, and found that linen or
cotton rags creased with Gnseed oil were more
combustible than the same rags CREASED with lamp
linseed oil rags, under pressure, in two months
sperm oil rags were consumed in the space of six
months, under the same pressure clippings of oiled
silk and thin oil CLOTH greasy hay and shayngs pro-
ducng the same effect in greater length of time.
1t is the duty of all housekeepers to see that lamp
rags, and greasy organic matter Of all kinds are not
slowed away in any part Of house. ] am con-
WINGED that many fires in this city originate from
this cause and therefore beg the insertion Of the
above. Yours truly, CHEMIST.

WANDERING PHr1ANTHRoPrsTs.-We perceive
that Abbey Kelly and Jane Hitchcock are wander
ing towards the West, intending to speak at every

relative to slavery, dissolution of the Union, and va
rious matters and things. These are the female
apostles who are going about the country in order to
dissolve this confederacy. Whenever they have I'M
fastened the first pin, we will make record of the
fact in due course of journalism

ample of the patriotic Irshmen in other parts of the

acts against this country! We call upon them to
avow themselves to the world, so that we may
know what they are.

DEFENcEs OF THE CoUNTRy.-It is a very absurd
idea 10 suppose that this country is in that compare
lively defenceless state which comparison of the
actual military and naval force OF the United States
and England would appear, at the first glance, to
indicate. On the Atlantic border, the whole COM
mercia marine could very speedily be transformed
INTO powerful and effective navy, quite competent
10 defend our sea-ports. Then, on the lakes, the
forty or fifty steamers which navigate those waters,
and remarkable alike for their strength and
elegance, could easily be converted into war steam
vessels, by removing the hurricane decks and
mounting battery of cannon on the lower deck
In less than three months army of one hundred
thousand soldiers could be concentrated at any
point; whilst, by means of the numerous railroads
and means OF rapid intercommunication by the tee-
graph, the whole country could be at once organized
into one immense camp.
