And tune my heart In mrlOiy.

Sweet visions bright, of other times.
Around thou shed'st ETHEREAL light.

Could never be too long;
Thou art SD beautiful and bright.

And ever, ever, shall thy praise.

Life TO hc Lent.

Young. healthy people will soon fiat
their blood saleable commodity. as may
be seen by the following extract from d
Partisan paper in the Tribune:
An interesting. and thus far success
ful, experiment upon the trdnstusion OF
blood. was made. some years ago, at the
Hotel Dieu. of Lyons. A woman was
brought into the hospital who had been
seized with violent hemorrage, the con
sequence of premature delivery. Her
condition seemed desperate; it presented
all the symptoms OF the agony that fol-
lows great loss OF bioci-entire abs nee
of color in the skin. paralysis of the
limbs, almost complete blindness, diff
Guilty Of comprehension, extreme weak
ness, bat extraordinary raPidi;y Of The

cvitab.e
Doctor Delorme suggested TRANSMISSION.
This was at first cornbattel by the other
physicians as offering no chance of sue
cess, but was finally assented TO. as. the
case being desperate one, it could do
no harm, even if it did no good. Oae of
the young aspirants. residing in the hos
pItal, offered TO furnish the blood neceS
sary TO the operation. !. syringe was
immersed in warm water and kept there
eaiI 1t became of temperature a little
Fligher than that of blood in circulation.
The proper vein in the arm of the suffer
fr was then opened. and a fine canua, or
tube. was introduced, to some length
The other end oe the tube was then fitted
&C The syringe, which was enveloped in
warm towels, anu in which was the nee
essary quantity of pure human blood
The operator then gently forced into the
veins of the dying woman the revivifying
fluid.
AT this moment. as she afterwards de-
clared, she felt greatful warmth spread
over her body. without having the rea
soning faculty strong enough to trace IL
TO any cause. Soon after, she recovered,
in great degree. ner senses aud eye
sight. A few hours later, d reaction
manifested itself so violently that the
physicians were seriously alarmed 1t
seemed as if death might result as well
from too much. too active vitality, as
from vitality too much Exhausted and en
feebled. But a calming soon diminished
this unnatural action. and the patient has
since been regularly improving. The last
intelligence from Lyons, states that it is
now hardly possible that relapse can
occur. and that the cure may be set down
as complete.
Where will modern science stop It's
encroachments upon The domain of the
unknown and impossible? This woman
of Lyons was very nearly as much raised
from the dead as was the son Of the Wild
Ow of Nain."

PGrtu OrUarlizntG on.

1t is high time the Wings of every city and
county in the State, were organizing for the De-
cember election. We shall publish Tomorrow
the spirited proceedings Of the Alexandria Wings.
Before the late Convention the Wings of this city
appointed an efficient Vigilance Committee which
is notwithstanding its duties. The same plan
should be carried out in the counties.
The Lynchburg Virgnan aptly calls attention
to the recommendations of the Convention on this
head. 1t says:
The following are among the resolutions adopt
ed by the late Wing State Convention:
| Resolved, That it be recommended to the Wings
of the different counties of the State to appoint CEN
trail county committees and subcommittee for each
| election precinct.
! Resolved, That the central county committees be
requested appoint public speakers for their respec-
| tive counties
! Resolved, That looking to the important duties that
will devolve the first legislature under the con-
slituton, and to other considerations connected with
| the public good, this Convention earnestly recommends
to the wings OF all the counties, election districts, and
towns entitled to representation, to bring candi
dates for the Gene raj Assembly their most prom.
| nent and influential men.
cessity aud advantages OF organization. United action
is as essential in the movements oil parties
as in other attempts above the capacity OF individual
exertion To meet antagonists who act by concer it
is indispensable that should combine and organize.
This is plain 10 every one. What we need now is ac
ton immediate, judicious. general. We therefore
call upon the Wings OF Campbell and all the Ugh
boring counties to proceed at to put in practice the
recommendations OF the convention NO county
sh ould delay longer than its first court day.

giles scarcely less disastrous 10 ;eif Internal prosper
yaad their general trade than the iOreig hostues
which much apPrehended The probability is
that should suffer the next degree TO the Uni
ted States themselves from any such CONFUSION, and
we therefore strongly interested In preventing 1t;
but if these impedimens did not arise, and the seizure
of Cuba by the United States ehectualy accom-
pShed, that occurrence would at once afford prece
dent tor fresh aggresSlons and the means OF conduct
ing them For all these reasons, we adhere TO the
opinion that the maintenance OF peace itself and the
common interests of the United States aud of Europe
do Imperavey require that this species OF popular
excitement should be restrained, and, if no other
means remain, should be resisted. We rely on
the policy of the American cabinet, and the good
sense of the people, to with us in putting down
serious danger; and we trust that the intentions
OF this pacific and legal party may be seconded by the
certainty that although no European government mas
the slightest preteus;on to intImldae or menace the
American confederation, yet neither will European
governments allow themselves to be inundated and
assailed by American citizens, who can only effect
their cupable objects by embrolllng their own counuA
with the rest of the world.

Mr.. Summers and the Neie Constitution.

summers
The Lynchburg Republican endeavours to
make some capital against Mr.. Summers by con-
Meeting, with one Of the resolutions adopted by
the Charlottesville Convention, a statement that
he "declared in the late Reform Convention al
Richmond, that while he voted there to submit
the new Constitution to the people, he should
nevertheless rote against its adoption atAte polls.
This is an overstatement OF what Mr.. Sum
mers said. His remark was to this effect: "that,
as representative, he felt bound to vote for sub
hitting the constitution to the people, but he OBJ
iected so strongly to some of its provisions (re-
ferrng chiefly to the restrictions upon the inn
provement policy of the State) that, unless his
mind should undergo change, he should vote as
citizen against it"
1t is particularly due from us to make this cor
recton, because it IS now made necessary by an
original inaccuracy of our own In hasty post
script, published in the Times of August lst, we
stated simply that Mr.. Summers had, during the
voting on the night before, said, she voted in the
affirmative as representative but, az private
citizen, should vote against the constitution. -
The same dav, which was the last of the session,
Mr. Summers himself called our attention to the
fact that this was too broad statement of his
language and said, that he had not, by the re-
mark he made, by any means, committed himself
as to the vote he should give the polls, that his
mind was not made up on the subject, that whilst
he approved the new constitution in the main he
feared it would have a disastrous influence upon
our internal improvements, and, that, If upon fur,
Their consideration this objection should not appear
insuperable he would vote for the ratification.-
In the Times of the next day august 2d) we
sketehed, more at our leisure, the remarks made
by various members as they gave their votes, and
then cave the substance of what Mr.. Summers
said, in the words first quoted above.
For the satisfaction of the Lynchburg Repub-
lican, we have now to state, upon reliable author
ity, that Mr.. Summers 0M uote for the neao con-
stitution.
"In this connection" we may add, that Mr..
Bocock, the Democratic candidate for the Attor-
ney Generaship, voted very emphatically, in the
Convention, against the new constitution. Does
the Republican know how he will vote at the
polls I?

The "Souhern Press" is still authority with
SIN all fraction of the Democrats of Virgna,-the
Calhoun wing of the party, which has, Cor some
time, apparently been growing "small by degrees
and beautifully less" In the following little ar
ticle it certifics them, that the Washington Union
has got deplorably off the right track:
We observe that the Washington Union and the
Louisville Democrat advocate the election OF Foote
against Davis, in M Mississippi.
The Southern Democrats of the State will readily
understand how they will fare f they permit themselves
fall into the power and organization OF the national
Democracy.
AS for Foote we don't know but he is good enough
represen alive in the Senate of Southern submission
He is very noisy and incessant talker and there
were few more like him in both Houses, the North,
notwithstanding her numerical superiority would have
no chance in debate. But that she might submit to,
for it is good policy for her TO indulge Southern men
with Northern principles. Still Foote is such bore
that he would undoubtedly disgust Northern men with
Congress and with the Union. When ne rises, there
is apt TO be quite secession of members North and
South from their seals. And he had remained hit
tie longer side, might have sxored some
concessions from the North, il we could have only
stipulated that he would speak than SIX times
day on every question that arose.

The Revolution in Northern Merico.

We publish to-day very important advlces from
Northern Mexico which has become the new scene
of commotion. 1t appears that revolution has
actually commenced, and it would be ignoring all
our public history not to contemplate the proba-
btv that if this attempt be successful, a new pro-
iect of annexation will soon be the theme of dis
cusson in the United States. A Texas paper, the
Houston Telegraph, has even already given no.
tice of what may be expected, by saying:
ssWhatever may be the power OF the General Gov
eminent to prevent the Cuban volunteers from prose-
cutting their expedition, It cannot prevent its cltzens
from emigrating TO the Northern Provinces OF Next
