The Expected Flying Ship.

Mr.. Rufus Porter, the proprietor of the pro-
posed Flying Ship, reports progress. He says
that the most essential part of the apparatus is
ready tor imitation with air; the longitudinal
rods, rudder, pulleys, replenishing pipes and sa-
loon wires will soon be adjusted. The engines
are superior, both in construction and style
The floor of the saloon is twenty feet in length
by six in breadth, and consists of a combination
of upward of one hundred and forty pieces of
spruce timber, and strong enough to sustain
forty persons; yet its entire weight Is only twen-
ty-fve pounds. The floor of the engine-room 10
arranged to be independent of the main floor !;
ard the engine and boiler are so arranged as to
be at any time disconnected from the wheels and
detached from the saloon, should occasion SO
require, for the purpose of repair or otherwise.
If the weather continues favorable, and no un-
forseen misfortune prevents, Mr.. P. expects to
crafty the friends of the project in about two
weeks time by successful demonstration

The Female Race.

An old bachelor, whose advances towards ma
trimony had been repulsed by beautiful angel
in petticoats, thus delivered himself of his SEN
tments in relation to the whole tribe:
''Well, / always knew woman wernt worth

as full of tricks a conjurer, stubborn as q

The White Hous. l7sA.

A Mr.. Wansey, whose published notes of .
tour in this country in 1884 have recently been
the subject Of notice in the American papers,
gives the following description of breakfast at
the White House. Will the breakfast in these
days bear n comparison with this:
"Mrs. Washington herself made tea and cof-
fee for u.s. On the table were two small plates
of sliced tongue, dry toast, bread and butter,
but no broiled fish as it is the general custom.
Miss Custis, her grand daughter, pleasir
young lady of about sixteen. sat next her BROTH
er, George Washington Custis, about two years
older than herself. There but little ap-
pearance of form-no livery. A silver urn, for
hot water, was the only expensive thing on the
table. Mrs. Washington appears to be some
thing older than the President, although born
in the same year, in statue rather robust very
plain in her dress"

TWENTY YEARS AGO.

I've wandered in the villnge, Tom I've sat be-
meath the tree "
T-ron the school-house playground, which shell
tered you and me;
But none we're there to greet me, Tom, aud few
were left to know,
u1.t ,1aved with us upon the grass, some twen-
ty years ago. r
The grass is just as green, Tom; bare-footed
boys at play,
We're sporting just as we did then, with spirits
just as gay 80, -,
Rut the Master sleeps upon the hill, which,
coated DER with snow,
Afforded us sliding place, just twenty years
ago.
Tn. old school-house is altered some; the ben
ches are replaced
Bv new ones. very like the same our renkniyes
had defaced;
But the same old bricks are IN the wall; the oeu
swings to and fro,
T.. r,rsic lust the same, dear Tom, twas twenty
years ago.
The bows we're playing some old game, beneath
that same old tree;
l1o forget the name just now-youTe played
the same with me,
On that same spot; twas played with KNIVES,
by throwing and so
The leader had a task to do-there, twenty
years ago.
Tho rivers running just rs still; the willows on
its side
Are larger than they were Iom; the stream ap
pears less wide
But the grapevine swing is ruined now, where
once we played the beau,
And awning our sweethearts-"pretty girls
Just twenty years ago.
Tho sprinr that bubbled meath the hill, close
by the spreading beech,
Is very iow-'twas once so high that we could
almost reach;
And, kneeling down to get drihh' oe'i ioiii'
started so, --
tn ace how much that have changed, since
twenty years ago.
Near bv the spring, upon on elm, you know
cut our name,
Your sweethearts just beneath IT. 1oni' anu you
did mine the same;
Sorne beartless wretch had peeled the bark
twas diving sure but slow,
Irst "a that one whose name was cut, died
twenty years ago.
Nv lids have long been dry, Tom, but tears
came in my eyes;
| thought of her loved SO "eii-'hose e"ii'
broken ties;
Visited the old church yard, and took some
flowers to strew,
rnon the graves of those we loved, some twenty
years ago.
Some are in the church-yard laid-some sleep
beneath the sea;
Rr, ra,r ore loft of our old class, excepting you
and me;
And when OUR time shall come, Tom, and when
we're called to go, .
hope they'll lay us where we played JUS
twenty years ago. s

EBENSBURG, THURSDAY, OCTOBER q, 1852.

not signed the White certificate Their oath
was an honest one, of course. ae
The John Gallagher and John Lynch who did
sign the White document, live in Concord. ]
knoW them, and | know they signed it. They
| are ready to make an affidavit to this effect.
| Thefooney certificate says that Halpir
did -fsSHssgn the White document His employ.
er is Wing, and he together with Cooney, per.
suaded Halpin to swear that he did not sign the
certificate. 1t will recollected that did not get
up the document. l simply certified that the
persons whose names were appended to it were
Catholics, and that believed the contents of
the letter perfectly true. / find upon inquiry
that Halpin, when asked to sign the paper, an
| swered, | will, but put do,cn my yourself.
| This circumstance he conceives, justified him
| in swearing that he did not sign it.
| These things prove that the triumph which the
Cooneyites supposed they had gained, with re-
ference to these three cases, is no triumph at
all.
Cooney went to most of the Irishmen known
to be in the employment of Wings, and, as a
matter of course, I fear, most of them signed
the paper. So far as 1 know, only one man re-
fused. His name is Connars. The concoctors
of the document coaxed and fiattered him with
out success. The amiable and accomplished
daughter of the employer of Connars also en-
deavored to induce him to sign the paper. This
was hard trial but Connars, who understood,
it would seem, the contents of the documents,
Democrat" was his constant reply.
With reference to the Dover and Nashua certi-
fcates, cannot speak from personal knowledge,
but, if be correctly informed, their history is
very similar to that of the Manchester and Con-
cord documents.
From the above facts, it will be evident to the
public that the Cooneyite papers, protesting to
embody the Catholic sentiment of New Hamp-
shire with reference TO the test, (the only mat
ter have at any time touched upon) must be
regarded as the production of few political enc
mics of Gen. Pierce They do not, in the slightest
degree, affect the truthfllness Of my testimony,
as heretofore published. In the language of
Brownson, Pierce IS areH knoacn to hare ererted
himself IN advocating the a6rogation Of the test.
If the Democrats wished to rest their case up
on the number of signatures, they would, doubt
not, have procured an array of signatures that
would overwhelm the Cooneyite documents
Perhaps they would now, if they thought it
worth while.
Respectfully yours, - w. MDoNhLD.
Catholic Pastor of Manchester and Concord,
New Hampshire.

Horrible Death from Hydrophobia.

We mentioned, few days ago, that Capt.
Williams who had been bitten by rabid dog,
at Brandywne, Del, had subsequently died OF
hvdrophobia at his residence near Cape May
Dr. Wales his attending physician, thus de-
scribes the condition of the unfortunate man af-
ter he became aware of the nature of his dis
ease
ssFullv now awake to the awful nature of his
situation. his mind, too, but little disturbed, he
continued from this time (about o'clock, 2. NJ. J
in wakeful state, now conversing with toera-
BILE composure upon such topics might be sug-
gested and anon thrown into the most painful
muscular contortions, especially II any liquid
were offered him, or even any allusion made to
ANYTHING of the kind. The case, however did
not attain its worst phrase until about o'clock
the following morning. He seemed, indeed,
from early dawn to this hour, a little more COM
posed: had even forced down small quantity
of milk although not without an effort which
was painful to behold. At or near 8 O'Clock,
however the final struggle commenced. With
a wild scream he besought the presence of his
mother. his wife, and others of his relations and
friends, and took a formal leave of them in a
manner rational as possible. This was at once
succeeded by paroxysms so violent as to require
his being firmly secured to the bed in which sit
uation the spasms increasing fast In frequency
and violence with rapid flow of saliva, at first
frothy and viscid, but afterwards thinner, less
tenacious and made up of froth and glairy
fluid which he sputtered forth while his strength
continued clutching at it with his hands, some
times. as if to tear it away from his mouth
His countenance was now at times shockingly
distorted, and his brain frenzied his teeth gra-
ting and gnashing in terrible manner. He
continued in this awful state until about half
past 10 o'clock, A. NJ, when his power having
SO fan failed as to prevent his dislodging the
fast accumulating saliva, his throat gradually
! filled with it, and he expired.
.In the fitting and varied expressions which
passed over the countenance of the unfortunate
patient toward the close of life, there were ex-
hibited such appearances as would lead the be-
holder without much stretch of the imagination
to suppose that the rabid creature whose deadly
poison was circulating through his system by
its bite, had worked out the fact of transform
ing his very nature into his own. There was
the rabid canine expression as the human fea
lures would in any way allow of.
.sThus ended tragedy, which, in a practice
of twenty-five years, have seen nothing t'
compare with"

The ssTest---A significant Fact.

In the town of Newport, New Hampshire, says
the Concord Patriot, the names of those who
voted on both sides of the question OF striking
ont the RELIGIOUS test, were recorded. The New
port Argus gives the names and political char
acter of all who voted on the question, from
which it appears that 129 Democrats and only
/ Federalists and Free Sellers voted in favor OF
abolishing the test, while IS Federalists and
Free Sellers and only Democrats voted against
abolishing it. Among those who voted against
obolishing the test. was d. TERRY, a delegate to
the late Federal Convention, which unanimously
adopted resolution declaring that the wings OF
New Hampshire have always been in favor OF
abolishing that test Like q hundred other
members of the convention that passed that ly-
ing resolution, he showed himself IN favor OF
ishing it. We have no doubt that if the facts
could be shown, it would appear that three-quar-
tiers of the votes against abolishing the test
were given by our opponents
