PHOTOGRAPHY UNDER WATER.-An Englshman
by the name of Thompson, recently took a very
good photograph of the rocks and weeds at the
bottom of Weymouth Bay, England. He placed
his camera obscura in box, with plate glass
front and movable shutter, to be drawn up as
soon as the camera had been sunk to the bot
tom. The apparatus was then let down from
boat, carrying with it the collod an plate, pre-
pared in the ord dnary way. When at the bot
tom the shutter Of the box was raised and the
plate exposed for period of ten minutes, with
successful result. 1t is believed that this
method will prove ready and inexpensive
means of arriving at a Knowledge of the con-
dition of piers, bridges piles, strutures, and

request, and when he returned from his fruitless
search, found that he had been robbed of o

BALLOON ASCENSION On HoRsEBACK.-In refer
ence to the balloon ascension and descent Of
Mons. and Mad. GODDARD, at Manchester n. H.,
on the Fourth, the Mirror says that they went
up at twenty minutes past eight o'clock the
horse hanging his head low down with eyes in
tently fixed upon the earth, without struggling
particle. They were soon high in the hea-
vens, about $500 feet, according to Mons.
Godard's estimate, sailing in southerly direc-
ton. They made a circuit of about twelve
miles, and at five minutes before nine o'clock
landed in field belonging to William Plumer
in Londonderry.
They threw out anchor and caught the bal
loon on the tops Of trees, where they remained
some ten minutes before they could get free, III
the mean time the horse eating the leaves Of the
trees, as if nothing strange had happened The
folks where he landed thought the end of the
world was coming, and the devil was riding
through the air. The woman rushed into the
house and shut the door, and for some minutes
the man was afraid to come and unfasten the
horse. The horse went TO feeding the moment
he landed.

DON'T Rend This.

We give below an article from the Ohio States
man, of July 18th, in reference to the Vigilance
Committee of San Francisco, which should be
read by every man woman and child in the State.
1t is from the pen of the ablest and most popular
editor in Ohio, Samuel Medary, Esq, and his
paper, the Statesman, is certainly second to none
in the Union as hgh-toned and influential
journal
News FROM CALIFORNIA.--There is bad state
of things in California; most dangerous exam
pie for the country. While we have no sympa-
thy for the murderers and ballot box suffers,
and do not think that any punishment can be
too great for such outlaws, yet it is a bad state
of affairs when q self-constituted Committee un-
dertake, in the face of the constituted authori-
ties, to administer punshment-esp especially un-
der the heated state of excitement that seems to
exist there--that must exist TO pFolong the Com
mittee's power to act.
In country like ours where the people have
adopted a rule of law, it is better to await the
return of reason and justice in community, than
to take the law into our own hands,
What we oppose in the attempted revolution
in Kansas, we should oppose any where Any
other view of the subject will lead to civil revo-
luton everywhere, instead Of peaceable elec-
tions, the only test known to our system of
government.
We have in our time, witnessed acts of legis-
lation in our own State that seemed enough to
excite any people to a great rebellion, but was
it not better to submit peaceably for the time
being, and trust TO the future enlightenment OF
the public mind +?
We see that already move has been made in
California to call State Convention by the
party that sustains the Vigilance Committee,
form a new Government without the regular
process of law-or to use the language of Cal
iiornia paper, proclaim new Independence"
This independence is understood to be a Gov
ernment, not only Independent Of the present
State government of California, but independ-
ent of any other government-wthdraw from
the Union and set up for themselves. 1t is thus
the public m,nd is led on from one error to an
other until dissolution stares us in the face and
all government is at an end. These fearful
fOrebodings are everywhere developing them
selves, and it is high time that the good and pa
trotic were banding themselves together every
where to check the fearful evil.
We are happy to see, however, that this revo-
utiOuaPy proposition does not meet with favor
in California, even in quarters where it might
have been expected. The clergy there, as here.
have taken the side of disorder, and we are glad
to see the papers doing them full justice aud
demanding that they return to their calling, and
preach peace aud not evolution--prcach order
and not disorder. We have read one of these
sermons published in San Francisco paper,
and it out-Beccher's Beecher for blood and car
mage, though Slavery had nothing to do with
the subject and was not alluded to. Thus show
ing that this unclerical conduct rife over the
land is disease, and any d sturbance is seized
upon, as preteXt for mixing in the eXcitements
Of the hour

THE NOMINATION OF Col. FREMONT.-Despite
the warnings Of all the more moderate men of
the black republican party, and the wishes of all
the comparatively Conservative citizens who
were casting longing glances towards that or
gahization-despte the assertion Of Thaddeus
Stevens in the Convention, that without Judge
Mclean was its cand date Pennsylvania would
be lost by 10000 majority in the fall, he was
withdrawn under circumstances which strongly
indicate his betrayal by pretended friends, for
some unknown reason.
In his place, that enterprising young man,"
Col Fremont, has received the nomination.
Destitute of qualifications destitute Of all states
man-like qualities, his only recommendation APP
pears to have been that there was "a great deal
of romance about him. This may be a weighty
consideration with a young lady in her teens III
selecting a lover, but it would be an insult to
the intelligence of the American people to sup
pose they would not require more solid and at
tractve qualities in a President. For the sake
of FremOnt's own fame, he should never have
placed himself in a position which will render it
necessary that the true history of his life should
be made public, the veil Of tinsel with which he
has been bedecked be rudely snatched aside. and
the facts connected with his career be exposed.
His friends viii be very apt to maintain a close
silence upon his fcats as an explorer, when the
history Of his blunders and heartessness becomes
known. They Will not boast much OF his famous
Coochatope Pass, which eventually proved to be
the highest peak but one Of the Rocky Noun
tains, nor of his favorite route for the Pacific
Railroad which on examination. proved so
crooked that it received the sOubriquct Of the
Rams Horn Route-nOr of the school Of engin-
ecrng which he established, viz : that the move
ments of the bulfaloes were the best guides to an
eXplOrer-nOr will they be apt to particularly
laud the descrtion of his corps in the midst of
the pcrils into which he had led them, shut up in
snow thirty feet deep, which occurred near Taos,
in New Mexico
Perhaps no man of his age has more unfor-
tunate record than Col. Fremont He was court
martialled and dismissed from the army for in
subornination-his financial transactions with
the government funds will probably be found to
be not at all times of the most creditable char
acter-he failed as polittian; and, after serv-
ing a short time in the senate. was superseded
as soon as he became fairly known by the peo-
pie of Calfornia-and altogether. though he
may be a very fast, very romantic and very
enterprsing young man, he will find that no
''bufialo engineering will take him within hail
ing distance of the White House-that obstacles,
high and insurmountable as his famous pass, will
rise before hm-and that his political "Ram's
Horn Route will lead him into difficulties as
inextricabe as those by which he was surround
ed when he deserted his companions in the snow
at -PennsylUanian.
