nature in this locality has blended every facility TO
answer the wants of both body and mind An abund
ance OF water of dewy sotness and crystal tranps-
rency, to cleanse, renoyate and rejuvenate the dis
easeworn and dilapidated system; and to please the
artistic eye Of ideaity and to charm tho lovers ofhe
sublime, natural scenery Of surprising beauty pre-
sents itself to view
Here lies the ucid lake Of ChaYtauque rejecting as
mirror the royal hills that rise on either side and
the roar of the waterfall caused by the outlet of the
lake lcapng the barriers Of nature sends
up continual anthem. Here the disciples of Walton
can ply the rod and line to their hearts content IN
taking the fine specimens of the fnny tribe thai
swarms the waters of lake and stream; and the M
merous groves and ravincs in the vicinity afford de
ightfl retreat for those who love to gaze ON natur

This establishment was constructed especially for
Cure and planned, in every particular, according t.
the most approved model, by the proprietor, Genera
Allen.

but it cannot control elemental power. With
the savage, revenge moves by instinct and the
law of retaliation manifests itself like some
electrical law of Nature, which, when equili-
brium has been destroyed, must inevitably
raise the tempest. If among the civilized eter.
nal vigilance is the price of liberty among the
uncivlized and savage, eternal justice is the
price of safety.
To this point, lessons Of history might be
cited lessons which Caleb Cushing politicians
should not be suffered to pervert. But it is
not the writer's design to make predictions on
American destiny. Let history, not prophecy
tell the tale. II will be more easily believed
Certain it is, however, that the barbarians Of
the East have a long score to settle with us,
some time 1t cannot be possible, in the coun-
ellis of Heaven, that the narrowing injustice OF
centuries will pass without its reward. The
agents Of retributive justice have long been at
work through channels unsupported or des-
pissed The halfbarbarous European colonies,
dispersed among the oriental tribes, are 80
many depots of Information, spreading reports
of Americas baser notwithstanding jealousy,
nursing revenge. A few more years OF RAM
pant aggression of the Slave Power, and this
jealousy, already felt to our detriment, will
ripen to more definite and determined hostil-
ity. Then, woe to the adventurous seaman
that, unprotected, falls into the hands of those
undiscriminating foes. J. c. PORTER.

ways to address men when he addressed an
audence-to address those who felt the inn
pulses, and would listen to the suggestions Of
manhood and humanity
Some might say, What was the use of talk
ing on this subject in Wolf boro'! There had
been no fugitive arrested there, and would not
be. Pehaps not but he had sometimes wished
Gt might be wrong wish) that fugitive
might be seized n their midst that they might
see if the slave power could cast chains around
those mountain tops as it had round Boston
courthouse 1t was possible that they might
have a fugitive case, even there in Wolf bor0
and it was well that the patriot and Christian
should have in his mind well-settled convictions
of duty, that should guide him in action when
an emergency should arise. 1t was we'll then,
that they should have these sentiments and
principles fixed in their minds, so that if such
an emergency does come, they might know
how to act in reference to the individual case,
when it was presented for their personal appli-
cation.
Mr.. Hale expressed the conviction that the
great question of the trial is covered by the
ground that is embraced in the Fugitive Slave
Law. He believed in the language Of the an
cient prophet to the children of Israel, that
God had controversy with this people to-
day" And that controversy was, whether his
law shall have the high place TO which he en-
titled it, or whether the allegiance which they
should render to the King of kings should be
measured and dictated by the party leaders Of
the miserable faction to which they might be-
long The question was, whether man, made
in the image of God, vital with the breath of
his providence and redeemed by the everlast
ing Son of his lOve-whether man should be
holden sacred above the bee SITS that perish, or
whether he should he made an article Of mer
chandse and placed without the protection OF
law
believe, said Mr. Hale, in conclusion, that
upon this subject it is the right and duty OF the |
people of New Hampshire 10 entertain liked, |
strong, and settled convictions. | believe that
when the Almighty made this beautiful coun-
try where we are, he meant that 1t should be
the abode Of freedom, and not the hunting
ground for slaves. Loud cheers ! believe
that when the air with which He now waves
the tops of the pine trees over our heads was
sent out from his breath, he intended it to pass
through the lungs Of freemen and not of slaves.
Applause believe that when he placed his
'mile-the "sme of the Great Spirit BE
ween these hills, He meant that on its peaceful
waters no human bloodhound should ever hunt
lis prey; but that it should be now, always,
nd forever, the abode of freedom happiness,
lrtue, and independence. Repeated cheers
In the afternoon, the meeting was addressed
" l.. d. Mason Of Tamworth, and l. H. Tai
Dot, ESD, of Portland, Me. Mr.. Hale also
poke at length, on the enormities of the Fugi-
i've Slave Law, and the duty Of Christian men

TAPEsTRY-The French Government has
sent to the Crystal Palace twelve specimens of
Gobelin and Beauvaise Tapestry, which are
among the finest manufactured in that coun-
try. The Evening Post thus describes them:
"The subjects of the Gobelin are as follows
A hunting scene; autumn the wolf and the
lamb the dog and bitch and design for the
back and seat of an arm chair.
The Beauvaise includes the following SUBJ
jects: A fight between two goats, after Oudry
the reading lesson, after Bouchet the skaters,
after Laueret; landscape, after Desgofhs and
three folds for screens after Oudry and Eloy.
"The five specimens of Gobelin tapestry are
alone sacred from the purchaser. The seven
specimens of Beauvase will be sold in behalf
of the French Government manufacture The
value of these exquisite specimens of tapestry
may be estimated from the price, which is set
down at twelve thousand dollars
The eight hundred pieces of Sevres porce-
lain include some of the most beautiful and
costly specimens of this Government manufac-
ture. There is a single bowl valued at the
enormous sum of three thousand dollars. q
couple of vases with portraits of the celebrities
OF the 18th and 10th centuries, at the same
price tea cup at one hundred dollars; des-
sert service at two thousand, and some single
plates from thirty to forty dollars.
