Counterfeit,

1t is common to hear people exclaim adj
miringly, at looks like something better!
Everybody would think it an expensive article!
Yon are fortunater
What is implied in this? That everybody
wishes to seem better than he is, and to have
his possessions seem more valuable than they
are The ladies (bless thcm) are specially
given to this habit, in reference to articles of
dress. They have, perhaps, unconsciousy
adopted the form of expression used by the
merchants who sell the goods. When one of
these shows calico. he assures the buyer
that it looks like delaine; and bingham
would certainly be mistaken for silk, the style
is so like! So, innumerable varieties of
goods. offered cheap, they assure customers,
appear in every respect just like the costly
articles they were made to simulate. None
would suspect the cotton and wool was not
all wool, that the satin was not all of silk.
that the velvet was not of the richest quality
This striving to seem better than one is, to
appear in pecuniary circumstances above the
real condition, is the bane of social life.
Occasionally we meet one having moral coaIr-
age enough to be true. When we do see one
without a wish to make silk look like satin,
we trust him fully. Such people find it easy
and pleasant to appear as they are; and they
enjoy life and the esteem of their acquain-
tances. Don't try to make silk appear satin.
Let WOOL pe "ooi: Lei CoI1oh looh mt Oo'soii
This effort to cheat the eyes contracts the
mind and degrades the soul. God made the
cotton. 1t is nicely adapted for service, and
while clothes you, honor it, and not feel
ashamed of its beautiful textures. Ifyou can
receive honor from the style or expense of a
garment, we pity your sOul-or its substitute.
Regard fitness in your garments, as in all
else. and think no more about it. The true
are honored, as being in consonance with law;
the counterfeit are despised as soon as detect

A New Era I'm Gunnery-SatisfactO
Trials of the sawyer Cannon.
Especial Dispatch TO the Ne,o York Times.

w .SurNc1pn>y Tb.I Suay, aug. I9.
The secretary of War has ordered series
of experiments, with the new rifle cannon OF
Sylvanus Sawyer. of Fitchburg, Mass, to be
made under the direction of the Ordnance De-
partment, and the results, so far as reported,
are entirely successful. 1t is tile unanimous
opinion of the Ordnance officers that this new
gun stands without rival. At the distance
of one mile, the body of an ordinary size tree
would not be missed once in fifty times. SO eX-
act are its line shots. Mr.. Sawyer superin-
tends the firing in person, and in seventeen
shots, at distance of one mile, the furthest
was not over three feet from the center. Such
shooting was never known before. and these
experiments show that new era in gunnery
has dawned upon us.
The Sawyer cannon has a groove like the
rife, which forms circle in twenty feet. The
gun now being tested is a small one, carrying
only about six pound ball, and has been
fired over taco hundred times without the
slightest injury. 1t is cast of the Al ger iron
of Boston, now considered the finest gun
metal in the world. The ball is shaped like
the Minie-rifle ball, and is filled with powder,
which explodes after striking and entering
an object. The great discovery of Mr.. Sawyer
has been in adapting the cannon ball to a
groove gun. To effect this the iron ball is
first timed. and then covered with a coating
of lead near a quarter of an inch thick. with
leaden ridges on the surface fitting exactly the
grooves of the bore.-The Official report on
these experiments will place this new cannon
Just as far above the Dahlgreen and other
guns now known to the world, as the MIME
rifle is above the old musket nor do | make
this predic ton without knowing what am
doing. u

AN Atrociou. Outrage-Read.

re- Professor Whelan, late Principal of the
Missouri Blind Asylum, in st. Louis, lis well
and fayorabiy known to our citizens generally,
and to those of Philadelphia, Pa, and Nasbs
vile, Tenn. He is almost wholly blind, yet
has habituated himself to traverse the streets
without serious Inconvenience. Having re-
signed the position he had bonorably filed at
the Asylum, and concluded his business ar
raDgements, he yesterday set about seeking
a steamer on which TO despatch his effects to
Pittsburg, en- route for Philadelphia. 1t is to
be regretted that unused to the active world
and deprived of sight, the worthy gentleman's
habit of selfreliance should have led him,
alone and on such an erraHd, to meet the
perils of the levee. At about P. NJ, while
passing near the foot of Pine street, he was
courteously addressed by a stranger, who,
after slight conversation offered his arm to
conduct him across the street. 1t was accep-
ted. and on learning that his polite street.
friend was named Miller, Mr.. W., was further
delighted when the agreeable "reminiscences
of Captain Miller of Nashville, suggested by
the name, were intensified by this prompt
avowal of Miller, "That Captain Miller is my
father!' Mr.. w. was captivated, and a long
and animated conversation followed, during
which the parties walked far, and Mr.. W.,
trusted to his friend to "keep the ran of the
Streets At about 5 o'clock he inquired
where they were, and Miller appeared unable
to tell Mr.. w. asked a person who was pas
sing, and was told they were on Fifteenth
street. He was slightly startled, and his
friend proposed to accompany him to the
Planters House, where they would get sup
per. and meet Captain Miller. But the friend
turned westward, which direction Mr.. W.
assured him was wrong. and they agreed to
wait and take a bus down Franklin avenue.
In the meantime they entered Carr Place,
passed some twenty steps from the gate, and
sat down. Presently, Mr.. w. found himself
caught, gagged, and held FAST He struggled
desperately, and, on the instant, supposing
that-as he still htinks-another person had
attacked him. he tried TO call on Miller to
help him. Bat he could not speak, and when
his exertions to free himself encouraged the
hope of success, he was struck very violently
upon the forehead and temporarily stunned.
On recovering, he found himself apparently
alone, all his pockets but one turned outward,
and himself poorer by $3.50. The money was
in bills of many varieties, and the fact of his
possessing it, had been drawn from him during
the conversational stroll. Twenty dollars
was left him, in a vest pocket. This was
attributed to the casualty that he had taken
a pin-cushiOn from that pocket in Miller's
presence. The villain was probably led to
judge that no money was in that pocket No
clue remains by which to identify these in
famous scamps, for it is-deemed certain there
were two or three of them.-.S. LOUIS Den1-

A Large Vessel IntePferes with the
Atlantic Telegraph.


The following from the London Times de-
scribes the meeting of one of our Liverpool
fleet with the telegraph squadron. Our men
were bound to see all that was to be seen, and
had not the slightest respect for English gun
powder. The Chieftain sailed from Montreal
with load of $4,000 Detroit slaves, which
were taken down to her by the Star of the
North, in May last:
During the afternoon an American three
mastcd schooner, which afterNard proved to
be the Chieftain, was seen standing from the
eastward toward us. No notice was taken of
her at first, but when she was within about
half mile OF the Agsmemnon she altered
her course and bore right down across our
bows. A collision. which might prove fatal
to the cable, now seemed inevitable, or could
only be avoided by the equally zardous ex-
pedient OF altering the Agamemnon's course.
The valorous steamed ahead and fired gun
for her 10 heave to, which. as she did not APP
pear to take much notice of was quickly fol-
lowed by another from the bows of the Aga
mcmnon and a second aud third from the
yalorous; but still the vessel held her course,
aud, as the only recourse left 10 avoid a col
lision, the course Of the Agamemnon was
altered just In time TO pass within few yards
of her. IL was evident that our proceedings
were a source of the greatest possible aston
Ishmeut TO them. for all her crew crowded
upon her deck and rigging. At length they
evidently discovered who we were and what
we were doing, for the crew gave Us three
hearty cheers. Though the Agamemnon was
obliged 10 acknas ledge these congratulations
In due form, the feelings OF annoyance with
which we regarded the vessel which, either b.
the stupidity or carelessness OF those on
board, was SO near adding fatal and unex-
pected mishap toihe long chapter OF accidents
which had already been encountered, may
easily be imagined.
