Fifth Lecture before the Newpot As-
soeiation Of Mechanics and Manufactur-
erS.- This was lecture OIL Electro
Magnetism, and its application to the use
ful arts, as displayed in the working of
the Magnetic Telegraph, by Joseph M
Wightman, Esq, of Boston
Mr.. w. presented brief preliminary
view Of the nature of Magnetism, and
showed that though the cause Of this
powerful effect, called magnetism, was
unknown-the effect itself was Identical
with Electricity, Galvanism, Light, Heat,
&c. &c. He then gave history of the
successive Improvements effected in the
Galvanic battery until it reached the
compact and manageable form given to
it by Grove, which rendered it available
for useful purposes, and particularly for
the working of the Magnetic Telegraph.
Without these successive Improvements
in the battery, and particularly the latest
and best, the Magnetic Telegraph could
never have been called into existence. or
successfully pnt into operation. Mr.. w.
exhibited great variety of experiments,
illustrating the nature of the magnetic,
galvanic and electric fluid, and closed
with an exhibition of its application to
the working of the Telegraph.
The lecture room was thronged at an
early hour by very large audience
of both sexes, which gave its unbroken
attention to the lecturer for two hours
through his valuable preliminary expla-
nations and series Of well conducted
experiments.

WARRINGTON, April ", lS4S.
Extraordinary Scene in Washingtom-M. de
Bodiseo, the Russian Minister, and Capt. Ivan
ko,cicz, Grandnephe,c of Kosciusko.
Yesterday afternoon, about four o'clock, Capt
Wankowicz was standing on the pavement, in
front of the European Hotel, near the Treasury
Department, when the carriage Of the Russian
Minister approached the pavement where he was
standing, and suddenly stopped. In an instant
more the door of the carriage opened, aud M. de
Bodlsco appeared, and in a manner and voice
unusual in this meridian, and in language un.
known to the bystanders, summoned Capt. Wan
kowicz to approach him. An angry and excited
dialogue quickly ensued between M. de Bodisco
and Capt Wankowicz, the latter exhibiting a
manner and tone of defiance, the former the
most Incorporate and revengcful threats. While
tnls novel scene was passing, quite a crowd of
tne curious had began 10 collect around, and
me pubic curiosity relative TO this strange affair
IN no manner abated after the minister OF the
autocrat aud the grand nephew of Gen Koscius-
ko separated. What did all this mean was the
inquiry from all sides. We will give the expla-
nation.

nephew OF Gen SkrZvnecki, a leader Of the
Polish revolution OF 1880 and who had in mn

Russia relative TO Poland, was engaged by some
OF his former countrymen, the heirs Of Gen

WASHINGTON, april q, Io4o.
The Hunkers and the Barnburners-Thc Signs of
Peace Bet,ceen Them-Ihe Presidency and Wee
Presidency-General Dir-Mr. Polk, &c.
The late speech of John Van Buren, has excit-
ed great deal of surprise on the part of demo-
cratic members; surprise to them joyful, as
through the mist which has obscured New
York politics within the last two or three years,
they imagine that they see a star of hope, glim-
mering earnest that the dscordant factions will
become united, treaty of peace be ratified, and
the calumet smoked by the sachems and young
braves of the Empire State. There is an anxious
inquiry to know what has softened down the hard
edge of the barnburners, fints, always o ready
to strike fire-what has cooled the ardor of this
portion OF the fierce, hard6sted democracy; but,
there are transactions behind the scenes which,
like the face OF the prophet OF korassan, are
yelled from vulgar eyes. and we are left to specu-
late from what appears upon the surface
1t seems that the democrats generally are
giving in their adhesion to Mr.. Polk. Some
swear against him; but yet they say that If he
be the nominee of the convention, they will sup
port him. as the motto is with them, as with CO.
lionel Benton, everything tor the cause and
nothing for men" think that Mr.. Polk ought
now to order the release of Mr.. Nugent, as your
editorials have done him infinite good, by giving
him prominence, as Presidential candidate,
which no other journal, except perhaps one III
the South, mas yet done. 1 ne PRESIDENT SnOuid
make some show of gratitude, If, like the with
holding of the SEdell correspondence from the
House, it be not incompatible with the public
interests
But in what manner is a peace between the
hunkers and the barnburners to be dehnitlvely
concluded What will be likely to cement the
broken fragments =! The nomination of General
Dix for the Vice Presidency-a gentleman who,
the democrats say, would make good presiding
officer of the Senate, and could step into the
boots of Mr.. Polk, if Mr.. Polk should be elected
and die, with more grace than any other politi-
clan. Reconcile the leading men to this ar
rangement, and the Baltimore convention will
avow 1t, and the entire party will rally to the
ticket: The effect Of the Wilmot proviso will
have its influence, perhaps, at the North but,
under the banner Of " Polk and Dix" short,
easily pronounced names, local divisions will be
forgotten, and the national glory only be
garded.
The wings are In greater trouble than the de-
mocrats; they, unlike their opponents, have al
ready two self-nomInated candidates in the
field.
The House actually passed about two dozen
private bills to-day and, by a resolution, aulho-
rlzed the clerk to issue proposals to have the
binding Of the House executed by contract. An
adjournment took place at an early hour.
