Mr.. Stanton, the British CCeur de Leon of the

sition, sat down, went to work, almost cleared
the board in some twenty moves, and was about
withdrawing in contempt, when he was arrested

"my name is Morphy." "Ohl of America? ?"
"Yes, sir." "Ah, then I am sorry, but am

before the mishap, returned q this port. Upon
her homeward way she must have passed the
Agamemnon, but owing to ,svy fogs, which
prevailed for the greater portion of that time,
she missed seeing or gaining ny tidings of her.
As the Agamemnon has me- yet arrived, al
though her destination was oirected towards
this shore, it is conjectured FIAT she might not
have delivered the arranged quantity of coil at
the time of its failure, and may have conse
quently returned to their pace of meeting,

which must necessarily be FL as, until she be

as to the occasion of the disc ster
The two principal electr, clans, DIR. SANITY
and Mr.. Laweson, are on bo srd the Niagara,
and are inclined to believe aat the accident
occurred on board the Agar ,mnon, which, as
it would only implicate faulty arrangements in
some of the apparatus, still leaves hope of
ultimate success in the undertaking. Whereas,
if the separation has occurred at the bottom,
its effects will be greatly to camp, if not to de-
ter, the enterprising spirit of the directors
from persevering in the gigantic project.
Should nothing be heard o her coasort, the
Niagara will, after coaling, proceed to her Gen.
trial station, having still on board about one
thousand three hundred mile> of cable, which,
supposing that the other Vessel has returned
with similar amount, woulS still permit of a
junction being completed, sId allow thirty per
cent. for casualties. In thii last trial, some
five hundred miles of rope wts lost; and when
it is calculated that it is rJaf hly estimated that
the value of the cable is about one hundred
pounds q mile, it will be seer that the sacrifice
up to the present has not e IN so expensive as
might at first sight have bye supposed.

III the Editor Of the National Era:
DEAR SIR: 1t is some time since have writ
Ten YOU of what is transporting in this part of
the country, the backbone of New England,
ttLe star that i.euer SETS" But there are sever.
al reasons for my not doing so. In the first
place, there does not much transpire here in
Vermont. The sun rises and sets, winters and
summers come and go, seed and harvest, "the
sryand latter rain" but of what interest is that
Who cares how much or how little it rains,
when we have no corrupted Legislature to wash,
or defsulting officials which ought to receive
salutary lessons in the ancient aquatic treat
ment of witches? And what is bread and beef
to mankiad, when it is certain who will be the
next Governor?
WHO ever saw season not soy April and
May exchanged places, and in May We had, l
think, t,oanty three rainy days, and through June
and up to the 10th of July hardly shower,
while grass suffered much from the drought
aud now again we are having glorious rain, re-
wing the parched earth, falling alike on the
Just and the unjust, the monarch of the forest
or the humble violet. All our crops are look.
ing WELL corn much better.
AS to political matters, we have no excite
ment here except in sympathy with sister
States, for our political complexion is 90 we'll
known, that people far or near never ask hoso
Vermont goes, but "what is the majority"
The Republicans met in their State Gen.
veDtlon at Montpelier, las you have doubtless
seen,l had very harmonious time, was address
ed by Hon. j. Collamer, and others from
abroad, chose the next Governor and other
State officers, flor it is understood whoever they
nominate will be elected, (Uide Paul Dilling-
hams letter to the Secretary of the Navy,)
passed good RESI- lutions, and came home.
have often thought that law of compensation
ruled through the world, and that what PEG.
pie or person lacked of one thing, they were
compensated for in another; and while our peo-
pie are so stable and reliable, our climate is so
variable and uncertain. Whether one is cause
of the other | will leave the more philosophic
to determine. On one of almost the last days
OF June, the mercury rose in the shade to Sc
degrees and on the night of the LIST of July
there was frost In one of the adjoining towns,
that killed pumpkin vines, and made corn look as
bilious and disconsolate as an Administer alton
Democrat in northern Illinois.
But, all in all, we are prospecting well, be.
hevt in progression, and hope for the spread
of suti cient light and honor, zeal and activity,
to secure US a Republican President in eighteen
hundred and Sirty.
Yours for the elevation of the human race
