WHAT WE OWE THE MECHANIC.


TO nothing are we so much indebted
for the improved condition, increased
comforts, and elevation of mind and
intellect among all civilized people, as
to the discoveries, inventions and i'm
provements in the mechanical arts.
Since the days OF Watt. Bolton and
Arkwright, all the great movements
affecting the conditions of the different
orders and ranks in society, owe their
origin or have been made practicable
only by the introduction and use Of ma
chinery as aids to human industry.
In "the good old times" those, who
by hereditary rights, or by superior
prowess assumed or usurped the right
to rule over the great laboring masses,
were content to have their wants sup
piled, whether of courtly display and
extravaganza, or of predatory warfare
upon their rivals, without thought or
care as to the amount Or kind Of labor
required in gratifying the demands of
their pride and ambition.
The tillers of the soil, the artizan and
the manufacturer, all upon common
level, were regarded as mere serfs, use
full only as producers of what was re-
quired by the higher orders
Labor-saying machinery has changed
all this. 1t has been the great elevating
and equalizing agency of modern times,
and made it possible for the mechanic
and the laborer to supply his wants and
to surround himself with comforts, con-
veniences and luxury unknown in form
er times to even thevery highest orders.
lie is no longer the serf or dependant
of other ranks, compelled to devote his
life, subject to their will, in ministering
to the wants of others, for the mere
hight of existence for himself.
The mechanic Of to-day is not defined,
as he once was by a literary lion of the
old aristocratic court circles, as "a low
mean fellow" He may, if he improves
his opportunities, be the peer OF men In
any rank or profession.
All this we owe to the mechanic and
mechanical arts. The great movement
in this direction is still going on at con-
stantly accelerated ratio. Oneimprove-
nent only stimulates to another; a
comfort or luxury for to-day is a neces-
sity for tomorrow; one Improvement or
advance secures the means and oppor-
tunity for still further triumphs.
Who build our manufactures =? Who
build our railroads ? Who build the
houses in which we live ? Who build
our churches /. Who build all the arti-
cles and machinery we use in our house
hold and other pursuits ? The laborer
and mechanic does it all !! You may
have the gold of Peru and California,
and without the laborer and mechanic,
nothing can be accomplished. They,
including the farmer, are the bone and
sinew OF the country, and without them
the country would be vast wilderness,
tended to heathendom.

re- BURNING OF A BARN.-We learn
that on Monday morning last, the 2Srd
instant, the barn and stable upon the
farm belonging to Capt. James w.
Glenn, about mile below Dufields De
pot, on the road leading from this town
to Charlestown, were destroyed by fire,
including some hay and straw, making
a loss of some $500. Col w. A. Nor
gan, accompanied with DIR. l. S. Tan
ner. informs us that they were on their
way to Charlestown on Monday morn
ing last, and when near Capt. Glenns
farm they observed considerable smoke
issuing from the barn, and when they
fastened to the spot the barn and STA
BILE were enveloped in flames. They
found no person ON the premises but the
colored man and woman, Capt. Glenn
and his wife having gone to Charles
town. and by their untiring efforts they
succeeded in saving the dwelling house
and back buildings from destruction, as
the roofs of these buildings frequently
caught fire from the flying embers from
the barn, the wind blowing high gale
at the time. 1t is not known positively
how the fire originated, but it is stated
that the colored woman was in the habit
of emptying ashes upon the manure pile
in the barn yard, and the high wind Of
that morning famed the sparks of fire
and communicated them to the barn.

BS% INFANTICIDE AT SHARPsBURG.-A
correspondent writing TO the Baltimore
Sun OF Tuesday last, from Hagerstown,
says -
Reports have just been received of a
horrible case of infanticide at Sharps
burg, twelve miles from Hagerstown,
in southwesterly direction. The par
ticulars as far as | could learn them, are
that on Friday last young girl named
knode, living in that town, gave birth
to an Legitimate child, and in order to
cover up her shame endeavored to kill
it first in her room, but not succeeding
took it to an out house where she fin
ished her fiendish work by MASKING its
skull with spade, after which she
buried it. Traces of blood and her
conduct aroused suspicion and search
having revealed the body of the infant,
a jury of inquest was called together
and rendered verdict of infanticide.
The girl has not as yet been arrested on
account of her physical condition, but
as soon as she RECEIVERS sufficiently will
be brought here and lodged in Jail to
await the action of the grand jury. Her
family connections are very respectable.
