When Gen. Fremont assumed command of the
Department of the West, he organized scien-

graph operators and others we're recruited and
appropriate apparatus obtained from the East.
The celebrated calcine or lime light, discovered
early in the present century by DR.. Hare, of
Philadelphia, was applied for signalling pur-
poses--and BY means of this light placedi in a box
with an adjustable slide attachment, long and
short flashes were emitted-similar to the CON-
bination of characters used in the Morse tele-
graph alphabet. It il the dot and line Qong

AuTTERIEas FROM THE SoUTH.-The signs of
the increase. The JEFF. Davis government is
getting unpopular, and the people are getting
disheartened at their successive defeats. The
discussions in the rebel Congress indicate cri-
sis near at hand, and if the tide of battle does
not soon turn in favor of the South, the coun-
try may witness the unusual spectacle of re-
beliion within rebellion. Mr.. Foote, of Ten
nessee, said in debate, last week, Tuesday,
that If the Cabinet, after fair discussion on
vital question, should be voted down, they
should resign after the manner OF the British
Ministry, aud give place to others. And If Pre-
eident Davis persisted in retaining his cabinet
after such an expression of popular sentiment,
he would deserve to be brought to impeach-
ment, and if needs be ito the block" This al.
tentative of ''block" at the hands of the South,

restore the Union, and save the spirit of it's
democratic institutions. The ambition, the az.
pirations Of men grow from the circumstances
in which they live. Az these circumstances

ding direction. A slaveholding population,

liar institutions will, In their aspirations and
political action, be governed by the demand of
those interests. II these interests are incompa.
tible with loyalty to certain established form
of Government, that population will be disloyal
in its aspirations. Their way Of thinking, their
logic, their maginations, their habits, are so ef-
fected and controlled by their circumstances,
that as long as the latter remain the same the
former are not likely to change. Imagine this
slaveholding population with Union army on
their soil. Their forces may be dispersed, their
power paralyzed, but their former aspirations,
although checked, are not eradicated. They
move still in the same circle of ideas, and not
only their memories Of tile past, but also their
desires for the future, are still centered in that
circle which Slavery has drawn around them.-

The Democratic Convention.

A large number of delegates to the demo-
cratic state convention, to be holden here to-
day, assembled last night. They held an in
formal meeting at the Bay State House in the
evening, which was called to order by Moses
Bates, Esq, chairman of the state CEN
trail committee. Edward Riddle, Esq, OF
Charlestown, chosen chairman, and E. w.
Lincoln, Esq, of Worcester, secretary. Hon.
A. r. Brown of Lowell spoke in favor of en-
dorsing the ticket nominated at Boston, and
j. c. Tucker of Boston offered resolution
recommending its endorsement by to-day's
convention. The resolution was favored by
Major McCatferty of Worcester, and Messrs.
Newell of Holyoke and d. ID. Kelley of East
Boston. Moses Bates spoke against it, and
moved an amendment to divide the ques-
ton, taking the vote first on the nominations
for governor, lieutenant governor, and attor-
ney general. Mr.. Bates objected particularly
to Mr.. Reed, whom he called "a Plymouth
comfy Garrisonian abolitionist," and he
could not see how democratic convention
could endorse such man.
George Sennott of Boston, advocated the
resolution, and Mr.. Emery of Lowell, rather
objected to making any nomination at all.
DIR. Page of Springfield, objected to forestall-
ing the action of the convention, and moved
to lay the resolution on the table. Mr.. SEN
mott assented to DR.. Cages motion, and
thought that the best course. Oliver Stevens
of Boston, said if they made any nomination
at all, it should be the peoples ticket. but he
should recommend no nomination. After
some further debate Mr.. Tucker withdrew his
resolution, and at half past eleven the meeting
was dissolved.
