HIsroHY or ORGANS. The word organ,
~ is we'll known to psychologists, signifies SIM
ply an instrument and in that sense it APP
pears to be used in several places Of our trans
lation oftho Bihle. When first applied to the
instrument which now bears this name, the
plural, organs, Yves applied TO a single one, as
it was Il combination Of numerous instruments
Of music in one machinc.
A Greek epirram, supposed to have been
written in the fourth century, thus describes
the organ;
Twelve pair of bellows, placed in a stated row,
Are Joined above, and fourteen placed below;
These the full power Of seventy men require,
With coaseless toll, and plonteously pcrspire,
Each aiding each, till Ill the wind bo.pre 'sed
In the close confines of the incumbent chest,
On which four hundred pipes in order rise,
To below forth the blast that chest supplies
The wind organ is supposed to have been
introduced into churches in go, by Pope
Vitalban. Greece claims the honor OF lis in
vention.
Before the tenth century, organs had be-
come common in Europe, and had been intro
duced into England They must have been
OF very cumbrous construction, however, by
a versiied description Of one erected in 951,
for the bishop at Winchester. This organ
had but ten keys, with forty pipes for each
key. 1t is supposed that tie seventy bel
lows blowers, instead of keeping their bel
lows in action during the time of performance,
filled the chest with wind previously to the
performance, and then left it to be let out to
tho direction of the player. The keys are
said to have been six or seven inches broad,
and must have been pressed down with the
fist.
1t was not till the fifteenth century that
organs were so far perfected as to admit of
playing with both hands nor did their COM
pass exceed two octaves till the twelfth centu-
ny. Registers, without which variety of
stops could not be formed were not invented
till about the year 1900.

appreciate the advantages ailadedto, express
the opinion that no delay will be permitted
to intervene.
ltcau scarcely be necessary for lis to say
that this project. is Of more consequence to
Burlington, and to Vermont, than all the rail-
roads that can be built On the lines surveyed
from Lake Champlain to Ogdensburgh. 1t
is obvious that railroads cannot compete, Tor
freight, with waters nayigable for vessels that
can transport from three to four thousand
barrels OF flower. The correspondent Of the
journal of Commerce, to whom we have be-
fore alluded, says the deterioration in the
quality of produce in its transit from the up
per lakes, under the existing arrangements
for transportation is at least equal to 25 cts.
per barrel on flour, and sometimes much
more When the Canal from Caughnawaga
to St. Johns shall be completed, the same cor
respondent is of opinion that barrel OF flow
err can be landed at Burlington, from Cleye-
land, Ohio, for 35 cents, and allowing the
same rate from thence to Boston as is charg-
ed on the Western Railroad, say 30 cts, we
have 65 cts from Cleveland to Boston. We
imagine the freight from Burlington to Dos
ton is overestmated rather than under, and
that so cents will be found to cover the whole
charge-nearly one-haf of which is wasted
by the deterioration of produce in conse-
quencc of the necessary transhpments, &c,
required by the existing process oi rranspor-
tation Our merchants and business men
understand, As well as do the pro ducers and
traders of the West, the immense advantage
that would result from securing an avenue
for the transmission of produce, which should
superscde the necessity of breaking bulk be-
tween the point production and the market.
The absolute Saving, on cargo Of $1,000
bushels of wheat or corn, would be prodigi-
GUS, as must be obvious to any one acquaint-
ed with the present methods Of shipping and
trans-shipping grain.
We are glad to assure our readers that the
enterprise of which we are speaking is in
hands that will not suffer it to sleep. Indeed
the early completion of tie short and emf
waters of Lake Michigan and Champlain,
rendered certain by its own intrinsic impor
lance, no less than invited by its manifest
practicability.
We need hardly add that the prospect of
opening this avenue of direct Trade and
an additional and perhaps the highest obec-
ton to any project for bringing our Lake, at
Rouses Point or elsewhere ii, indeed it may
be assumed that such a project is now seri-
ously entertained. Certainly the opening Of
ship navigation from Chicago to Burlington,
would, at once and ctFactually, diminish the
zeal, in Boston, for bridge across the outlet
of this Lake for the purpose Of securing a
continuous railroad to Ogdensburgh. Bur
lington would then occupy the relation to
Boston that Ogdcnsburgh is assumed to occu-
Ply now, as the terminus of shipping trade
between Boston and the West; and notion
OF as our New England Metropolis may be
thought to be, she is about The last City in the
universe to build ROD Of unnecessary rail
road, or a SQUARE inch Of a .f!acy bridge,

WONDERS OF GEOLOGY. More than nine
thousand different kinds Of animals have been
changed into stone. The races or genera of
more than halfof these arc now extinct, not
being at prcsen, known in living state up
en- the earth. From the remains of some
Of these ancient animals, they must have been
larger than any living animals now known
upon the earth. The Megatherium (Great

perfectly colossal, With a head and neck
like those Of the cloth, its legs and feet ex-
hibt the character of an Aramadillo and the
Ant-eater. Its fore feet were a yard in length
aud more than twelve inches wide, terminated
by gigantic claws. Its thigh bone was nearly
three timee as thick as that OF the elephant
and its tail, nearest the body was six feet in
circumference. Its tusks were admirably

Arrival Of the IIibernia.

The royal mail steamer IIibernia, Captain
Ryrie, arrived at Cunard wharf, East Boston,
about two O'Clock Sunday afternoon, after a
passageof 4 days from Liverpool.
Her news IS fifteen days later, and in
commercial point Of view of the highest i'm
poMahce.
We are happy to find that the U. S. assist
ant postmaster general, Major Hobbie, has
concluded very satisfactory terms for the con-
veyance of letters by the steamers both ways,
with the post Office authorities in Great Brit
ain Postage stamps value one shilling each,
have been issued for foreign letters, and were
extensively used for the letters by this steam
err.
A confidential agent Of Prime, Ward & Co
was IN London, and it was understood that all
their drafts on failed houses in England will
be protected.
Among the recent failures is the house of
d. & A Denny, corn merchants, Glasgow, for
100000; and it is feared that the loss will
be severely felt in New York and New Or
leans.

in the opinion that she is quite sound, and
is free from all material damage in her hull.
On the first Of January next Poland will
officially be incorporated with Russia.
IRELAND. Up to this time there have been
comparatively few failures in Ireland but the
pressure has been of so long continuance, that
many of the traders are totally unable to meet
their engagements.
John O'Connel has issued circular to all
the Irish members calling meeting in Dub
lin, in the early part of November, to consid-
or the alarming state Of the country and of
public affairs, and to counsel us to the reme-
dial measures which it will be their duty to

for this county, commenced its session in this

days, a large number of witnesses were ex-
amined and the case was submitted TO the iu-

The New York State Fair, at Saratoga was
rather u meagre affair after all, though it
called together an immense assemblage of
people. One cause Of il was the distance of
Saratoga from the rich interior counties ofthe
State, and the expense of transportation, as
well as living and food for men and beasts at
that place. The next fair is to be held either
in Buffalo or on the line of the canal. The
best cattle and horses at Saratoga were from

ca The Liberty Party in Maine, have
succeeded in defeating members of Congress
who were in favor of the Wilmot Proviso, and
causing the elections of others in favor of
war and Slavery. The plurality law of
Maine made this result certain unless they
threw their votes for the Wing candidate.
The desire to preserve their organization in
the hope of holding the balance Of power and
thus getting office, was doubtless, the motive
of the leaders for pursuing this course, thus
betraying the great cause of freedom to gain
their selfish ends.-M H. Sentinel.

FIRE. On Sunday afternoon last the peo-
pie of this Village were called together, by
the ringing of the bells, for the purpose ofsav-
ing the dwelling of GEORGE w. PALMER,
from destruction by fire, The quick gather
ing of men with pails and the application Of
water, saved the main part of the building :;
but had a stiff breeze occurred at the time,
the means at hand could not have saved this
dwelling from icing utterly consumed. This
was newly fitted up house, and Mr. Palmer
had but just commenced occnpyingit. The
damage will probably not exceed 300.
Since people generally like to know the
cause Of such disasters, we will say A lot
of shavings were lying about the rear Of the
house, and little son Of MIR Palmer wishing
to exercise in DIatch-ljghting, caused one to
ignite, which was applied to piece of paper,
this to the shavngs, which caused the build
ing to take fire.
This case furnishes a new warning to pa
rents in regard to their place of deposit for
friction matches, and hints loudly to the peo-
pie of Brandon to man themselves with good
Fire Engine and suitable apparatus for saw
ing their buildings from the devourng ele-
ment; for, with shame be it said there has not
vet been sufficient liberality and unity of ac
lion among those who have the means, to pur-
chase a good FIRE Engine Should those who
have held back thus far chance to lose by
fire, enough to procure a good fire eXtlngulsh-
or, they may possibly open their eyes and
purse sufficiently to do their share toward the
object named. If the class named will not
take hold, we know of one man who would
not pity them should the fire get near enough
to them to scorch their coat tails
We will just hint at class Of men who
seem to turn out to see the fire We mean
those who have pals, but neglect to carry
them to aid in quenching the flames. Unless
they expect to look the fire out OF countenance
we can see no special object they can have in
turning out on such occasions, unless it be to
enjoy the pleasure fseeing the fire burn
DEATH AT TABLE. We learn that as Ma
jor Allen of Rutland, was sitting at tea in the
Stage House in that town, on Wednesday
evening of last week, he was observed, by
man sitting opposite, to exhibit signs of faint
ness: so much so that it was deemed nccessa-
nv to convey him to a bed. On the way from
the Dining room Mr. Allen gaspcd twice, and
on reaching the bed, life was extinct. We
understand that the deceased was about sixty
years of age had been an industrious, tenn
perate, respectable man, and Yves member

COUNTY FAIRS. We notice III the last
Free Press quite lengthy Report ofthe two
days Cattle Shoa0 and Far held at Burling-
ton on the 22d and 23d of last month, and we
judge from this Report and from the editorial
remarks, that those attending, had a fair time
of it, and we heartily say,-Success to such
efforts to increase the wealth and enjoyment
of the people of Chittenden County,
We were unable to attend the Fair held at
Rutland last week, and as we must be absent
before the Report reaches us, we can promise
but little if any of the proceedings until an.
other week. This county is but in its infancy
in regard to the exhibition of the products of
Farmers and Mechanics of this section, but if
they pursue right course in this matter,
Rutland County may soon compare well with
other counties in the State.
We should consider it rich treat to attend
the Fair at Vergennes this week, but circum-
stances prevent We are Of the opinion that
no County in Vermont can compare with Ad
olson on the score of Horses, Cattle, and
Sheep.

of an intruder in particular case. 1t appears that
the door keeper of the Secretarys Office remark
ably obliging, which proved quite the thing for a

and bother the Secretary. When the annoyance had
continued three four days, the Secretary stepped up
one morning to the door keeper, and asked whether
he knew what that came after daily. YES"
