THE A. B. CHAMBERs.-The magnificent
new packet for the Missouri river trade, The
A. b. Chambers, commanded by Captain
Gormly, was at our wharf yesterday, and
took on a large quantity of produce for New
Orleans. The Chambers is model Of
steamboat architecture, with every late in.
vention and improvement for steamboats, on
board. We have already noticed the patent
marine pump on the Chambers capable Of
pumping 800 gallons of water a minute,
thereby rendering her safe, so far as snags
are concerned. The pump can also be used
in case of fire, and would deluge the boat in
few moments. The Cincinnati mechanic:
may well be proud of such floating palace
as the Chambers. She will run from Lou
isville to New Orleans this winter.--[ Ev

In the decade ending 1910 the increase Of
Of all the slaves was 1913 per cent. in all the
States, but the increase in the Western
States was 70 per cent, and hardly more
than ] per cent. in the Atlantic States, that
is 10 say, the whole natural increase of the
Atlantic States emigrated West. In the de-
cade ending with lS50-in the early part
of which the elements of migration had not
spent their force-the whole slave increase
was 2Sa per cent. In the Atlantic States
the increase was l24 per cent, but in the
Western States 80 per cent, showing that
more than half the natural increase of the
Atlantic emigrated but the rise in cotton
has now made labor too valuable in the At
lantic cotton States to permit it to migrate.
At the same time the attraction upon the
Northern States is greater, that is TO say,
the number of slaves in Delaware, Mary
land, District of Columbia and Virginia, is
now 10000 les than in 1880. Thus the
influence of high prices powerfully tends
10 contract and concentrate slavery, and,
heretofore, TO act strongly against the settle
ment of new States; and the influence is the
same at the North. When business is pros
porous in the Atlantic cities, persons do
not seek Western farms, but the contrary
they concentrate upon the cities.

BRINE Poison. Rcynal, Of the
Veterinary school at Ayort, France,
communicated to the Imperial Acade-
my of Medicine in May last, the re-
suits of Investigations upon the pois-
onous properties acquired by brine,
after considerable length of time, in
which porI < other meats had been salt
ed orpickled. Although the nature of
the poison is involved in considerable
obscurity, it's existence is clearly DEM
onstratcd. The poisonous properties
are acquired in two or three months
after the preparation Of the brine, and
its use then, mixed with food for any
length of time, even although in small
quantities may produce death. A
simple solution of salt in water, after
the same length of time, does not
produce the same effect. The poison
acts as local irritant, exciting vio-
lent intestinal congestion and inAa-
nation it likewise increases the Sc
cretion of the skin and kidneys, and
cxerts direct effect upon the nervous
system, giving rise to trembling, loss
of sensation, commissions, &C.. Ex-
periments were tried with it, in the
veterinary school, upon horses, dogs,
and pigs. AS brine is sometimes
used second time for picking, and
for other purposes, these facts should
be remembered.

REMARKABLE EXPERIMENTAL recent
work of science gives the following
novel experiment, which settles ques-
ton of some Importance in philosophy !:
Two hundred pounds weight of earth
was dried in an oven and afterwards
put into an earthen vessel. The
earth was then moistcncd with rain
water, and a willow tree, weighing
five pounds, was placed therein. Du-
ring the space of five years the earth
was carefully watered with rain wa
ter, or pure water the willow grew
and fourished, and, to prevent the
earth being mixed with fresh earth or
dust blown to it by the winds, it was
covered with a metal plate perforated
with q great number of small holes
suitable for the free admission of air
only. After growing in the air for
five years the tree was removed and
found to weigh 100 pounds and about
three ounces the leaves which fell
from the tree every autumn were not
included in this weight. The earth
was then removed from the vessel,
again dried in the oven, and afterwards
weighed it was afterwards discover
ed to have lost about two ounces of its
original weight. Thus l64 pounds Of
woody fibre, bark and roots were GER
tainly produced but from what
source The air has been discovered
to be the source of solid element at
least. This statement may at first ap-
pear incredible, but on slight reflec-
ton it's truth is proved, because the
atmosphere contains carbonic acid,
which is the compound of TIA parts by
weight of oxygen and 35s parts by
weight of carbon.

University of Berlin, Prussia, has late
ly invented and successfully applied,

whereby cases of palsy of every kind,
apoplexy, atrophy Of the muscles and
spinal marrows, some Of them from
ten to twenty years. standing, have
been entirely cured within few min.
utes. Within a period of six weeks,
out of four hundred patients that had
lost the use of their limbs and muscles,
upwards Of two hundred have been
entirely restored to health, whilst the
the remainder were rapidly improving
under the treatment.

man, of course willing for the exten.
sion of slavery, therefore supporting
the faole Mr.: Buchanan dominated
over by representative Slidell," as he
calls him. Sam Houston, another
southern man, of course true to their
interest, viz: slavery extension. And
Rufus Choatc, whom Prentice of the
Louisville Journal tells us is a "poo1
Shote," completes your list. But such
men don't take the masses with them
In Maine you had George Evans to
help you, but still there was change
in the popular vote in favor of the Re-
publicans of more than thirty thou
sand. Therefore we find that the more
+" enlightened and patriotic of the old
Whig party who support Buchanan
(for the promise of office) are power
less in his support.
And Mr.. Vindex will find that be-
side Ole Bull, and John Bull, and Lou
is Napoleon being for Fremont that
North America will be for Fremont.
And here permit us to differ slightly
from the gentlemen as to the reason
of their preference for Fremont. He
tells us it's because they think his
election "the first step towards the
dissolution of the Union" Oh wise
statesman Upon what foundation
rests your sage assertion. All nations
are interested in the government of
other nations with whom they hold d.
plomatic intercourse, therefore tits no
officious intermeddling with our af-
fairs for France and England to ex-
press preference as to the result of
our Presidential election. That they
prefer the election of Fremont is cer-
tain, and for this reason, viz: they
fear the fillibustering propensities of
James. Buchanan as manifested at Os-
tend, if endorsed by the American
people by elevating him to the Presi-
dency, will during his administration
involve their respective governments
with ours in arar-mercilcss devasta-
ting acar-destructive alike to their
interests and ours. That, sir, l take
to be the reason why France and Eng
land desire the election of Fremont to
the Presidency.
We next find another eloquent un-
truth, to wit: but the patriots, the
F" statesmen of the Union, almost with
/" out previous distinction of party; are
f" for Buchanan, and all united and sim
" ccre in their desire to preserve the
" Union" But we will quote no more
Of such, and as Mr.. Vindex works
kindly in the traces with Preston S.
Brooks, and is therfore tit apologist
of Border Rulfianism, we note the fol
lowing. ~ hold the Aid Societies of
/" the North as being equally culpable
I" with the Border Ruffians Of the
/" South" The Congressional Commit
tee tell us that the Emigrant Aid So
cieties have violated mo iaac.. There
fore, according to Mr. Vindex, the Bor-
der Rufians have riolated mo lar. We
believe there is not another man in the
United States who would make the
same statement, which said statement
is a fitting climax" for the articles
of Mr.. Vindex. II. w. HUMPHREY.

4 wonderful stream is the River Time,
As it runs through the realm of years,
With a faultless rythm and musical chime,
And broader sweep ard a surge sublime,
And blends with the ocean of tears
There is a musical isle of the River Time,
Where the softest of airs are playing; -I
There is a cloudless sky and a tropical cline,
And song as sweet as vesper chime,
And the tones with the roses are straying
And the name of this isle is the Long Ago"
And we bury our treasures there
There are brows of beauty and bosoms of snow,
They are heaps of dust-butwe loved them So
There are trinkets and tresses OF hair.
There are fragments of songs that nobody sing,
And part of an infants prayer; [strings
There is lutte unswept, and harp without
There are broken VOWS and pieces of rings,
And the garments she used to wear.
There are hands that are waved when the fairy
shore
BY the mirage is lifted in air [roar,
And we sometimes hear, through the turbulent
Sweet voices we heard in days gone before,
When the wind down the river is fair.

And our eyes are closing to slumber awhile
