How MR. MoRpHY PLAYS EIGHT GAMES OF CHEss WITHOUT SEEING TEE BoARDs.--The fol. lowing explanation of the manner in which Mr. Morphy played eight simultaneous games of chess, without seeing the boards, at Birning- ham, England:
 MT. Morphy sat at one end of the library; at table at the other end sat his eight oppo- nents. with their eight boards before them.-- Mir. Morphy, gazing at the lozenged window above him, and leaning carelessly with his arm thrown over the bench on which he sits, at- tackled each board in succession. Move and counter-move were audikly announced by a friend, and when the tables had been traversed one move at q time, the process was re-commen- ced. It was most interesting scene. Mr. Morphy had the whole eight games so tho roughly in his head, that when piece was ac-

AGRICULTURAL FAIRs.--The Harwinton Cattle Show and Fair was held on Tuesday of last wecl and was, in all respects creditahle affair." and ex. hibited commendable improvement in the stock and products of the intelligent farmers of that we'll tivated town About one hundred yoke of the finest oxen were exhibited, with a fair supply of bulls. COWS and young cattle The products of the farm, garden and orchard did credit to the exhibitors. prominent among which were the variety of grapes from the vineyard of LEWIS SMITH Esq. whose atten-
 ion to the culture of this delicious fruit s we trust as profitable as it praiseworthy and if any of our readers desirous of raising their own grapes we advise them to purchase slips of Mr. Smith from whom they will be to get choice varieties in any quantity they may desire.

TIE NOMINATION OF CHARLES F. ApAMs.-- Charles Francis Adams has been nominated by the Republicans to represent in Congress the Third Massachusetts District, so long and hon orably represented by his father, the ex-Presi- dent. A nomination of this kind, is equivalent to an election. Mr. Adams has been diligent student of his country's history, and was hardly excelled bv his father Tn the extent and accura- racy of his information with respect to the questions which divide the parties of the day. He is qualified for practical affairs by long and distinguished service in the legislature of his native State. It will be remembered that Mir. Adams was run as candidate for Vice Presi- dent of the United States on the same. ticket with Van Buren in l848. The accession of q man of so much experience, backbone and f. deiity, will greatly strengthen the Republican delegation in Congress.
 Mir. Adams, we appreh,nd, has something of the inHexbility of his father, and may be war ranted to stand proof against the popular sove- reignty theories which have confused the hea d of his colleague, Eli Thayer, and other Massa- chusetts philosophers, and his nomination af- forls gratifying evidence of the political sound ness of his constituents.

Tom Corwin, of Ohio, in one of his late speeches thus eharacteristcally expresses very natural thought concerning Senator Douglas: :. I have said that honor Douglas. honor any man who looks the head of that party in the face and defies his power. But why did not Douglas wholly eman- cpate himself instead of putting the fetters of one hand, and allowing the handcuffs to dangle from the other? ?'
 Coop TOR NEW HARTFORD We notice by Chica- go papers that two New Hartford boys are working up in the Great West. Tom Dyer is candidate for Congress in the Chicago district, and Frank Sber- man is in for Representatives seat from the same city in the State Legislature. Both are born and bred dem ncrats but both are on the Douglas plat form and down on Buchanan and the Administra- tion = Wasted Herald

cidentally shifted on one of tLe boards, and a move was made in which it was involved, he at once detected something was wrong and ex- claimed that it was an impossible move = Such 1t was acknowledged to be. The piece ought never to have been on that square. In the same game, Mir. Morphy left piece, en pfase, the taking of which involved mate in q few moves, and accordingly on his adversary taking the piece, unconscious of the snare laid for him, the game became Mr. Morphy's a- most immediately. His play was very rapid. Each game lasted on the average about thirty moves, so he had to bear il. nind at least two hundred anu forty moves, and tile pos tlon of every board throughout from beginning to end The fact was evidently regarded ly these pres ent as all effort of genius not to be accomplish ed by more than one or two individuals in d century. Of the eight simultaneous games, Mir. Morphy won six, drew one against Mr. Avery, President of the Birmingham Chess Club, and lost only one, that against Mr. Kip ping. The eight games occupied about six hours, and at the close, Mir. Morphy being ask ed if he felt fatigued, said, Not iii the least but he should be glad to get his dinuer.'"
 FLUID LAMP EXPLOSIONS. We recorded a i>" u'y oiiSS, Vh0 ouih oi d idas Oy tic CA plosion of gas formed by the evaporation of burning fluid. Such occurrences have been very common. A fortnight siuce, Mr. Simeon Draper went with light to examine leaking gas-ppe in his office, when an explosion eusued, setting fire to the building Tie pubic are aware of the narrow escape of Seuator Cham dler, of Michigan, from death by similar cause.
 It should be borne in mind that hydrogen, when mixed with oxygen or atmospheric air of two or three times it's volume, and then set on fire, will explode with violence. The force of the elements thus exploding, is stated by Far aday to be equal to the power of many thunder storms She gasses used for illumination are carbonides of hydrogen, and present the same phenomenon. The common burning fluids" when heated or suffered to decomposc or cvap- crate in partially filled lamp, take the form of carbon:de of hydrogen, which, upon mx- ing with atmospheric air. will explode violent ly upon being brought into proximity with a burning taper. The mixture may not be as dangerous as gunpowder, but its explosive pro- pertes are as dis tuctly marked.
 IIeuce fluid lamps should never be filed near burning wick, and light should never be employed in the examination of q gas-pipe or metre. The catalogues of gas explosions, cam phene accidents. and deaths from carelessness with burning fnid," arc sufficiently numerous, cue would suppose, to enforce our admonitions.

DIRECTLY TO THE POINT

An independent Republican, thoroughly dyed in the wool,' asks the Albany Evening Journal whether it supports the doctrine of popular sove ,eignty as contratlistnguisked fiom the right and duty of Congress to prohibit slavery in the Terto ries of the United States? ?''
 The Journal replies
 "We believe not only in the right and duty o Congress to exclude it. but we believe in the right and duty of Free Emigration to exclude it. and the right and duty of Settlers to exclude it by the else of their popular Sovereignty In a word we deem it the right and duty of everybody to re- sist the extension of Slavery into Free Territory in every lawful way. They are all means to one end ; not conflicting but concurrent. Slavery has been excluded from Ohio. Michigan. Indiana. Wisconsin. Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, California Oregon and Kansas not by Congress alone, not by Popular Sovereignty alone, not by Free Emigration alone but by all these agents acting conjointy We believe that the same Strunentalties which have made ten Free States can, end ought to make ten more. The course of tfe Republicans m the last Congress met with most cordial ap- probation. They voted unanimously for Mr. Gid dings proposition to exclude Slavery from Kansas by proviso of Freedom. Defeated in that they voted with equal unanimity for Mr. Crittenden' $ proposal to attain the end by submitting it to a vote of the people of the Territory The Ship of State is tossing on the angry waters of Slavery ag tatlon. want to bring Ter into the safe Harlmr
