good sense to waive the DR.. Sangrado method
of treatment, and adopt the simiIlinaa similli-
bus curant,r principle. So, instead of cutting
off Maraboutic heads, right and left, they sent
NJ. Robert-Houdin among them, who soon took
the wind out of their sails far more effectually.
The proprietor of an idle hour will find this
book very entertaining.
But an idle hour is thing which seems
never to have been in the possession of Col.
David Crockett of Tennessee-nor, if we may
Judge from his opinion of and advice to Thin
blerig, would he have devoted it to M. Robert
Houdin if it had been. But though he could
not keep four balls in the air and read book
at the same time, he could send one hundred
and five balls straight to the hearts of as many
bears during the course of year, and that is
enough for one man. In fact, these two exploits
may be considered type of the difference be.
tween the life and pursuits of the two men.
The style of Col. Crockett's book is unique,
and the grammar adventuresome and expert
mental, like the author. Witness climb, whose
past participle the brave Colonel cannot quite
fix to his liking, and twists varioasly into elm,
clomb, and clam. But, grammar or no gram
mar, he elm, clomb, and clum, from little
cabin in the backwoods of Tennessee, to seat
in the American Congress- fact by which, it
is easy to see, he himself set no small store. In
good sooth, the energy of the man is sstouish-
ing. With knowledge of books confined to
the words that lie between "a ab and cruel
fix" in the spelling-book, leaving the room
precipitalty, while he was "up" for election,
lest he might disclose his ignorance of the
meaning of Judiciary" he did, by force Of
will, directness of purpose, and downright hon
esty, aided indeed by a striking originality Of
thought and expression, gil with honor place

that moderate counsels and conservative views are
still in the ascendancy, even in the EXTREMIST and
remotest South To pretend that to General HoUs-
ToNs personal popularity is attributable this result
would be absurd. His personal popularity did not
save him from defeat two years ago. No doubt
the German vote which he lost then, on account of
his supposed affiliations with the Know-Nothings
helped to swell his majority in the present instance.
No doubt too, those very Known othings, if any
remains of that organization exist, voted for him
in preference to the Democratic nominee, though
HoUsroN himself, as we have seen, charges that
nearly alr' of the leaders of that party in the
Democratic Convention which nominated RUNNELs.
But even making allowance for all these influences
which doubtless had their appreciable share IN the
general result, the result itself shows incontesaby
that the sound and patriotic views embodied in the
speech we have quoted are the views of the major
ity of the people of Texas. So far
as any reference was had to the position
of the National Administration in the contest, Hous-
TON declares that he was denounced for support
ing that Administration expressly takes
to task the State Convention for failing to endorse
Mr.. BUCHANAN and his policy. From the Houston
7elegraph-a paper which advocated the re-elec-
ton of RUNNELs-we also learn that "nearly every
'ederal otfice-holder in Texas supported HousToN"
We have desired to give prominence to these facts
not for the purpose of up-holding Mr. BUCHANAN,
from whose policy we have taken the liberty of
dissenting on various occasions, and whose public
acts and recommendations we have criticized with
a degree of freedom which has provoked from the
paper which enjoys his patronage in this city, the
accusation of being "a most rabid opponent of his
administration" What we have writ
ten, we have written less in the interest of
the Democratic Party, than in that of truth
and justice, and for the purpose of expos
ing the dishonesty of those who in order to con-
ceal the real weakness of their cause, are in the
habit of claiming every defeat of Democratic
nomination as popular verdict in their favor,
without regard to the issues involved in the con-
test, or the views of the successful candidate
We doubt not that an analysis of the result of the
elections in North Carolina and Tennessee, would
show how equally faacious is the boast that those
States now stand in the attitude of OPPOSITION
For the enthusiasm which fondly counts upon
support which it never receives, we can make ev-
cry allowance, but for the dishonesty which will

of the present dominant party in Maryland to fiat

which they belong will ever attain the Importance
or the responsibility of National Organization,
or to look for any other union of the Opposition
than that which they may be able to effect with
their natural and only available allies-the Black

CAMP MEETING NE W.S.

SHREWSBURY, August 81 1859.
We arrived here this morning at one o'clock, af-
ter trip of about 10 hours We left Baltimore at
P. NJ, Saturday, and reaching Cockeysvie
learned that there had been collision between two
burden trains near Glencoe. Our train was DELAY
ed some time at Phoenix, and then we put back to
Cockeysville, and remained there on the switch
about three hours. During the delay some were
tretting and scoding, but others improved the
opportunity by building fire the track and
roasting green corn obtained from a neighboring
field. Singing and music also contributed to pass
the time, and at halfpast nine we moved further
on, but soon came back. At IL the down train
passed, and we made another start, but we had not
got far before the coupling broke and the engine
with four cars proceeded some distance before the
accident was discovered. The in which your
correspondent was, being among those that were
left. After this difficulty adjusted, we again pro-
ceeded, and had gone short distance when a sud
den stop threw a who was standing on the
platform headlong into the bushes. No harm done!
Here we were oyertaken by several trains from
Baltimore, and as we a heavy grade all
the trains passed and we went along at the rate of
about three miles hour On one OF the rear trains
some disorderly persons were enjoying themselves
in their own way, and by frequent passing through
the train ANNOYED the quiet portion of the passen-
pers very much. This caused the doors to be closed,
when the rioters broke the glass and acted gene
rally in very dsreputabIe manner. After all these
numerous delays and hindrances arrived safe at
New Freedom, where we left the cars for the ground
The road was dusty and the carriages crowded,
but when got at last to tent we enjoyed in a
very pleasant nap till early morning. We then
turned out and took survey of the ground, which,
for the cumberland array of tents resembled the en-
campment of an army. During the day an i'm
mense crowd was present. at l0% o'clock, the
Rev. H. Slicer announced that the Rev. D. W.
Bartine would preach in the morning, the Rev. H.
II. Reese in the afternoon and that the Sacrament
would be administered next Wednesday. Mr. Bar
tine preached from I'd Tim. 4th chap, verse; ''For
am now ready to be offered" His sermon was an
able and effective one and on its conclusion he was
followed in an exhortation by the Rev. H. Slicer,
which seemed to create deep impression on his
hearers, many of whom presented themselves at the
altar to be prayed for In the afternoon Mr. Reese
preached according to appointment, from Zachariah
9th chap, 18th verse, and made very able and for
chile discourse. Throughout the day so far as we
observed, the best order prevailed.

A NEW Motive PowER.-The announcement made
in the Ateliers Of Paris of the discovery of new
motive power, which, upon experiment has been
found to be entirely successful has created great
sensation. The discovery has been made by young
workman named Jacob, turner in copper, and was
the result of accident. While seeking to increase
the power of his turning lathe, new means of
power was suddenly revealed to him, whereby he
has been able alone, without assistance to construct
machine which increases two hundred fold the
labor of one man, and may be increased to an I'M
limited extent. The inventor, who has hitherto
worked alee, at Bascarbotla, has been of course
sent for to Paris, and has already nearly completed
machine applicable to every species of industry. If
success should attend the experimentation which, it
is understood, of the great industrial capitalists
furnishes the money-the discovery will put end
to all steam power and every other expensive &C
tion and the result is waited for with the greatest
anxiety in the manufacturing world. Already have
the proprietors of the spinning works at Schafhau
been induced to come to Paris in order to hear
the first news of the success or failure of the trial.
