ANOTHER WORCESTER INvENTIoN-we yes.
terday had the pleasure Of witnessing what has
long been considered desideyatun,--a water me-
ter, adapted to common use, which registers the
quantity Of water delivered either in pounds or
gallons, as regularly and as accurately as gas is
measured by the gas meter. 1t is the invention
OF DR.. e. d. Wetherbee Of this city, and was
manufactured by Mr. d. Newton, gunsmith, No.
IL Mechanic street This meter is very simple
in its construction and operation, and appears to
us just the thing that is wanted. We have no
doubt that its general introduction in Boston
would save that city thousands Of dollars year.
and stop the enormous waste Of water that now
takes place, 80 that the present supply from the
cochituate would be abundant, probably. for a
century yet to come.

The ninetieth annual commencement of Brown
University, at Providence, R. l., came off yester.
day. On Tuesday was the annual meeting of the
Phi Beta Kappa Society, the President, Hon.
Benjamin F. Thomas OF this city, in the chair.
The following officers we're elected for Rext year
President, VIM. S. Patten Vice President,
John H. Clifford Secretary, james B. Angel ;
Treasurer, James Tillinghast. Rev. C. NJ. Bow
ers of Clinton, among others, was elected honor
airy member. The Society then repaired in pro-
cession to the Old South Church, where the ora
tion was delivered by Rev. DR.. A. P. Peabody Of
Portsmouth, N. H., and it was very able, learn.
ed. and excellent dissertation, Of an hours
length, says the Providence Post, "touching the
recognition of the unchsnging law of right, in its
relations to education, literature, and political
government, in the course of which he denounced
the reputation of higher than human law in
the halls Of legislation as stark atheism admin.
istered a rebuke to our statesmen of the manifest
destiny kinds and in conclusion urged men Of
generous culture to seek the establishment Of
their country upon the basis Of eternal right as
upon the Rock of Ages"
The members of the Phermeni and United
Brothers societies then marched in procession to
Rev. DR.. Hills church, where the oration was
delivered by Prof. James B. Angel, on "The Sci
entiHc Study of Literature" Its conclusion was
an eloquent appeal to scholars to apply them.
selves to study with the intelligent, comprehen-
sive spirit, which seeks for order and law in all
the apparent confusion in human utterances /; to
recognize in the action of the laws which govern
literature, the wisdom and goodness of the great
Law Giver to delight to find in all languages
the abundant proofs that the whole civilized
world are brethren in the noble fellowship of let
ters; and thus to attune their ears to catch the
divine harmony which rises jubiant from the
many-voiced literature Of the world, as ever
ascending anthem of praise to the great Maker of
the human mind.
After the grafton, Col. C. C. Van Zandt, of
Newport, delivered poem, resembling some.
what in its character what the Ethiopian Minnes-
ingers would call "a grand introductory medley
overture" but containing many beautiful pas.
sages and telling points, that were keenly appre-
ciated by the audience.
Tuesday evening, an able address was delivered
before the Society ior Missionary Inquiry, by the
Rev. T. D. Anderson Of Roxbury, from the text,

The PRosPEoT IN THE TERRIToRIEs.-Ths
Richmond Why makes the following noteworthy
statements;
" Although there will necessarily be a renewal
OF the Kanzas agitation, growing out OF the SO,
600 population clause, yet the question of the
introduction Of slavery into Kanzas, or its exclu-
sion from il, which has occasioned so much con-
tention and strife in Kanzas and throughout the
country, is closed and settled qustion. and is
of no further practical interest TO the people of
either section Of the Union. And with the ad-
mission Of kanzas comes an end to all contro-
versy in relation to the domestic status of the
Territories. There is not now single foot Of
territory belonging to the Union which will not
be ultimately carved out and erected into tree
States by the force of Northern emigration. The
only spot Of the public territory into which
Southern men would be likely or willing to 60
with their slave property is the Indian Territory
West Of Arkansas; but even there, the moment
emigration sets in that direction, the North vii

Aug. 30.-Leaven worth advices of the Goth,
have been received per United States express

Considerable excitement exists in Lawrence
and Kanzas City. in consequence Of recent
arrivals from the gold regions of Pixies Peak,

dance in that locality. The company which
went from Lawrence in June had met with
good success.
The gold found is similar to that of Fraser
River and California. Mr.. Richards, who ar
rived in Kanzas City on the 2Stb, reports that,
with very little prospecting, satisfactory
amounts were obtained. Two men, with in
ferior implements, washed out 5000 in one
week, in small stream, fifty miles from
Pixies Peak. A second Fraser river excite
ment is apprshended.

FROM WAsHINGToN.- Washington, August
SI.-The business which more particularly
occupies the attention of the Administration
just now, pertains to our foreign relations.
prominently Including those with the Central
American States and Mexico.
Notwithstanding that Gen. Jerez has given
assurances that he is authorized to make such
explanations concerning the course of Nicar-
aqua will be satisfactory to our government,
as preliminary to his reception, to treat on
the pending matters between this and that
Republic, he has fuiled thus far to remove the
obstacles to his reception in a diplomatic
capacity.
The administration has not yet made seec-
ton of a Minister to Paraguay from among
the several candidates. In addition to the
national vessels to be sent there, negotiations
are pending for the USE or purchase of steam
ers of light draft owned by private individ
uals.
Officers are constantly being ordered to
their designated commands in the expedition.
and the detachment of mariners to be sent out
will be far more formidable than heretofore
announced. The object is to prepare for the
worst, on the part of Lopez, and place the
expedition beyond all possibility of failure.
