HUN3OLTS' ESTIMATE OF THE SABBATH
The celebrated author of ''Cosmcs' is re-
served and silent on the subject Of religion in
his scientific works; so much so, that many
who venerate the man and the scholar have
suspected ur!rather feared, that he was SEeptl-
cal on the suhect Of religion. But IN his let
tiers he appears to recognize the DIVINE origin

The OREGON Fusion FABRIcATIoN.-TH old
threadbare lie concerning pretended fusion

elect two u. s. Senators. is still used occa-.
sonally, when "the other things" are all in
the wash The correspondent of the Bull
letn, writing from Oregon, Sept. Goth, says
The antngonistic feelings now existing be-
tween the two wings of the Democratic par
ty afford no hope of union. 1t has been
publicly proclaimed by the leading Douglas
Democrats that they will not unite with the
Republicans. no matter what may be their
prospects, either of success or defeat The
Breckenridge Democrats are exceedingly
boisterous in denouncing the allusons that
have been made as TO their uniting, for any
purpose, with the Republicans.
"In view of these facts, the election of U.
5. Senators is not not anticipated by any
large mass Of the population"

mass of hieroglyphics but making confusion
worse confounded." This accomplished foot
