WONDERFUL PHENOMENON.

The Cincinnati Nonpariel states that a
scientific gentleman of that city "has with
in the last six weeks, at various times, pro-
duced animal life from the action Of Ger.
tain chemical preparations on each other,
in such manner as leads him TO the con-
clusion that more perfectly developed
process, aided by further scientific discov-
cries, will produce results miraculously as
founding 10 the world! The specimens
of life produced as above did not exist
more than twenty-four hours in either in
stance, but the simple fact of this life pow
er being thus manifested and attested. as
it is, by the personal examination of five
or six eminent physicians, may lead TO
something Of which we have yet no con-
ception, and to which the whole world Of
science, as at present. may look forward
with awe and amazement"

STATE BANK BILLS.

The one dollar notes OF the State Bank
Of Ohio having been successfully counter
feited, the State Bank has procured new
plate of this denomination, which we would
think from the description given, will be a
difficult task TO counterfeit. Swan, of the
Columbus EleratOr, 10 whom one Of these
plates has been exhibited gives the follow
ing description Of the general outlines OF
the BILL
Centre vignette-three portraits emble-
matte Of Agriculture, Commerce and Man
ufactures with appropriate costumes and
implements. Within the shields are a
plough, sheaf of wheat and steamboat; TO
the right, ship with sails spread, anchor,
&c., to the left, rake in the right hand,
growing wheat, rural scenery, &C.. on the
left end portrait of the President, and on
the right classical Pysche, in the act OF
raising the lid of the box, which according
to the myth, was obtained from Proserpine
and contained deadly vapor. The en-
gravers have selected that part of the my
biological history Of the goddess, perhaps
the most difficult Of execution, which re-
lates TO the opening Of the box and the es-
cape Of the vapor which caused her death.
This figure it will be recollected, is the an
cient emblem OF the soul and the same
word expressed that and butterfly
hence the wings Of that insect spcinging
from the shoulders.
The engravers are Messrs. Draper,
Welch & Co., Philadelphia. house re.
Gently established. The design except the
Presidents portrait is wholly their own.
For the purpose of Identification, the
name Of each Branch is engraved upon the
face of the note. The backs are red, in.
clning to orange with indelible ink, and
the names and place of location OF each
branch appear upon both ends. We dc
not profess to be connoisscurs in matters
of this sort, but it strikes us that parts o.
the engraving are very elaborately and
perfectly executed-while others are a
little defective. The wings Of the Psyche
show the most delicate touches Of the gra
YER. Amongst the latter we think the fig
ures are rather too dark and that the eye:
want expression. The vertical lines or
the back are ugly, inartisiic blots whicl
ought not 10 be seen. This defect nigh
no doubt be rcmedcd with little care
! Upon the whole we think the engravin!
very creditable to the young artists and i:
so elaborate as TO render them difficult
imitation by countertritcrs-which is the
main object at last.

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

The New York correspondent OF the
Washington Union, gives the following:
"What party has stood by the country
and the government in every crisis through
which they have been called upon to pass,
from the time when Washington bade
us farewell. TO the present day! Who re-
sisted the first advances OF ambitious men
towards such an increase OF executive
power and patronage as would have made
the President Of these United States a
Monarch in all but in name, and bound
the peoples advocate-the press-in
chains! The democrats Of 1898. Who
threw down the guantlet 10 the first Euro
pean power in defence of our national
| honor, and in the second war Of ndepen'
dence vindicated, by land and sea, the
rights of man by the thunder Of our artil'
lery! The democrats of 1919. Who
checked the progress Of sedition in the
south by the timely exhibition of irresisti
BILE strength and generous forbearance}
! Who overthrow that tremendous moneyed
! despotsm which already ruled the com
merce OF the country with rod of iron
and threatened to restrain its liberty witt
letters Of gold! The democracy, led OF
by Andrew Jackson from 1928 to 1885,
! Who, by the exercise of wise and ener
getic policy, in two short years, chastised
foe whose arrogance and presumption
became insupportable, conquered a mighty
empire, added to our old domains regior
of wealth incalculable and of vast extent
and acquired for us a character for nationa
prowess which secures for us the respect o
all the world! The democracy, under the
administration of James X. Polk from
1914 to l848.
In every place Of its existence, whether
for good or evil, has this party stood by
the country manfully till now: in her dark
est hours it has been faithful; in her bright
est it has cheered her on; and every dem
onstration of the peoples love for tha
country it may claim TO participate in. nc

its origin is DUE"

chanting imaginable. Near it is beau
tifal crescent-shaped island, covered with
the richest foliage, and its beauty is dou-
bled by the soft reflection of the stream.
Perhaps we were mistaken, but it appear
ed to us that we had never seen reflections
so rich as those along the shores OF the
Ohio.
The breadth of the streets, the taste
evinced in building, and the beautiful TO-
lage, now out in its brightest livery, rem
dered the outward seeming Of the place
truly enchanting. But there is more than
the outward to attract the travel TO Mariet-
ia. 1t is the cradle Of the West No
spot is so rich in historic associations; no
where, either, are the remains of the Won
derful aboriginal occupants of the soil so
distinctly found. In the centre Of the ce-
mentery is ii large pyramidal mound,
where, perhaps. sleep the departed of many
generations. We were pleased 10 see
that this relic was thus sacredly guarded
that beneath the green shade Of newly
risen forest, the sleep Of the brave and
the fair might remain undsturbed, till the
memorials Of our own age should become
hardly less wonderful than these. The
spirit Of commerce and manufacture has
but lightly invaded Marietta, and we were
especially surprised to find that it did not
afford single really attractive hotel. The
true kindness Of heart that was evinced,
however, made some amends, and the
hospitality Of the friends we met. render
ed our stay one of unalloyed pleasure
We only regretted that we could not spend
month instead Of a day We must moi
omit to name the satisfactory condition o.

of Mr.. Kingsley, former teacher in Co.

AFFECTING INCIDENT.

As a part oil the history Of the Presidents
visit to New York, the following incident
at Mad House, is told by the New York
Mirror:
After this fading remnant of mighty
race, the most affecting scene was at the
Lunatic Asylum at Utica. On entering
the Chapel where some two hundred OF
these untortunates were quietly seated, the
overseer introduced the President OF tho
United States, when all rose, respectfully
bowed. and resumed their seats. Each
member of the party was then introduced
by name, when the same ceremony was
profoundedly repeated. DR.. Maltby,
wise Lunatc, then arose and welcomed
the President in strain Of graceful and
touching eloquence that drew tears TO eve
ry eye. He is tall. thin, pale man, with
penetrating eyes, fine voice, and ges.
lures belonging 10 the polite oratory OF
"gentlemen Of the old school," The
Presidents reply was also very happy and
affecting So orderly and so we'll behaved
company surely has not greeted him in
all his travels. In one Of the female
Wards the whole party was individually
introduced to an elegantly dressed. and
most accomplished lady; the daughter Of
one Of the most distinguished lawyers New
York has ever produced. She had the
right word ready for every one who ad.
dressed her, and presented the President
with sweet little boquet Of her own ar.
ranging, in the most tasteful and graceful
manner. We saw the same "act Of pre-
sentation" performed hundred times, but
in no instance with such exquisite simpli-
city and grace as marked the offering Of
this accomplished lady. She is about for.
ty years Of years: and in mentioning the
names of some of the distinguished men
she had entertained at her fathers house,
added-"but for the last seven years |
have been-verv much out ofthe world"
There was a young girl in the Asylum
who also attracted much attention by her
beauty OF person and elegance Of Dress
She did not appear to be over seventeen
years of age, and there was not the slight.
est indication Of lunacy, or even of ''irreg.
larity," about her.
She stood in the door of her room, which
was adorned with flowers, gracefully ac-
knowedging the bows OF the visitors,
though no one presumed to speak to her.
She wore beautiful wreath of peach and
cherry blossoms in her dark hair-the on
ly ornaments appropriate to her rare and
touching beauty. Thinking of the "fair
Ophela" and the heart-broken "Bride of
Lammermoor," and all the delicate femi-
nine heartstrngs that were ever broken by
sorrow or sin, we left the beautiful Lunatic
and for hours afterwards, every sound
seemed a moan, every breeze sigh, and
even the "drops Of the morning. which
glistened in the flowers looked more like
tears of sadness than gems ofjoy.
