trifing majority, over al, at first conceded

graph gives from the Secretarys Office, the

But there were also l01 votes given for
Fremont alone in Philad., and 20 for Fill

WONDERFUL PREsERvATIoN.-W
nesday afternoon of last week, "a child, four
years old, who had followed her mother
into pines, near Quaker Bridge, Burling-
tor county, N. j., missed her way. The
alarm was soon given, the neighbors turn
ed out, and after searching all night, with
out success, the little one was found fast
asleep beside wood pile, without bonnet
or shoes, and to all appearance uninjured
by the exposure, although the night was
bitter cold.
THE QUESTION SETrLED.-Mosquitoes
can be tanned and rendered useful! DR..
j. l.. Bledchu, Of New Orleans, has sue.
ceeded in training the larger species of
mosquito, known as the "gallinipper," to
perform all the objects hitherto accom-.
plished by the leech or the cupper. A
dozen of these insects are equal to six
leeches, and, placed on the desired spot,
will at onoe commence to suck blood in
the same way, and with far less trouble
than the older " institution"
A committee appointed to examine into
the grounds Of the reported negro insur-
rection in Harrison county, Texas, found
"no evidence Of any concert of action, or
any definite ideas among the negroes Of
what they intended to do" There had
been some ''loose talk" based upon the
"beief that they would be free if fremont
was elected"

Yesterday-tas 22d Dcc.-was the
236'h anniversary of the landing Of the
r.Is, '.Ds pl,".outL Rvuh. Tho day
was celcboated everywhere by the sons of
New England From that day to this, the
people of New England have been the de-
testation OF the dread Of tyrants or their
tools, everywhere and at all tunes, whether
those tyrauts wore tiaras, crowns, mitres
or Prnsma hats-whether they were kiugs,
prclates, cavaliers, premiers, mobiles, or
slayeholders-and whether those tools were
venal members of Parliament or of Con-
gress; whether they led British troops at
Lexington aad Bunker's Hill, or printed
sham Democratic papers at Washington or
Philadc.dhi As general thing, New
England has led The van Of human pro-
sress, in the direction Of Christian and
democratic civilization. The world never
presented such proud instances of high
tened and happy social development and
perfect civilization as Massachusetts,, Con-
uecticut. and Vermont.-Phiiad Times
A little before two o'clock on Tuesday
morning fire broke out in the extensive
frame stable Of Mills & Place, omnibus
proprietors, on Till street, above Market,
West Philadelphia. The flames were CON-
munica,ed about the middle Of the stable,
and So frighiful was the rapidity. with
which they spread that of the great num-
Der of horses in the building, but two we're
got ont alive, and they were SO badly
burned that it will be necessary to kill
them. One hundred and thirty horses
perisbed in the flames. Thirty omnibuses
aud all the harness, hay, feed, &C., in the
stable were destroyed, involving a loss of
about $4,000.

SCIENTIFIC PRoPHEcY.-Six hundred
years ago, Roger Bacon announced "tha,
machines can bo constructed to drive ships
more rapidly than whole galley of rowers
could do nor would they need anything
but pilot to steer them. Carriages also
might be constructed to move at an in
credible speed, without the uid of any AMI
NAL. Finally, it would not be impossible
to make machines which, by means Of a
suit Of wings, should fly in the air in the
manner of birds"
A series Of resolutions introduced into
the South Carolina House of Representa-
tiyes, declaring that the slaveholding States
can not, with safety to themselves, submit
any longer to the Constitution OF 1877,
and proposing the alternative Of amend

riers against aggression, or else "resump-
ton of all the trust powers delegated by
the State to the General Government"
were laid on the table by 56 to Al.

says:
Last week an exciting election for four
trustees Of the German Lutheran Church
in State street was had, which resulted in
two sets claiming to have been elected.
Both parties appeared yesterday. when
one set was recognized by the Minister.
They both then attempted to act when a
coision Immediately ensued. The excite

when upwards Of two hundred persons
gathered in front of the Church, and an
angry conversation ensued. The police
finally succeeded in dispensing the mob,

The failure Of the State Of California 10
provide for the payment ofthe interest due
on her bonds, July 1st, has excited much
attention. We RETAINED from making any
remarks upon it yesterday, because there
was aplan on foot to raise the money here,
and for obvious reasons, we did not wish
to interfere, although doubtful Of its sue
cess. The plan was for Col. Fremont,
who has business connections more OF
less intimate with Palmer, Cook 4 Co.,
to raise the money upon his personal secu-
rity. His notes, or memoranda of them,
were accordingly offered all through the
market by the note brokers, but without
finding any buyers. However attractive
