Morphy and llarvvitz —No reliab'e informa
; ticn k*?s been received from Mr Morphy since the
| 1817 ult. Copies of tbe first five played with
I Mr Rarwitz nave reached tbe friends of our ow
-1 tinguiabsd coun'ryman. From these we are ena
b'ed to draw rome inferences relative to
tbe pfculimr ety cos the two combatants. It is
k iwn that ail caeca ccnfcst? ore ciivmeu into
twoc aa^e? —open games and closed games. A1
I them > t brilliant games on rec rd belong to the
fi r s: divkion, which is the cla?s that give* the great
est pi ty to the most splendid powers of the p avers,
ar and affords the best opportunity for deep andpro
touod combination. In it are included ail the so*
j Criile.T gambi t ‘when accepted,) and in genera* ail
i :hC’Se games where Paten to King's fourth, o n the
i part if the first p ayer, is answered bv Paten io
King's fourth on the par* of the second player. The
teoond or cloe division is and i-ticguiehtd ty prudent
play and careful znaccsuverirg The pieces a r e ai.
depl.'i ed before an attack 13 begun. The forces of
tbe player adopting it are eo cautiously guarded
that it seems to !be spectator blnoat impossible to
eft* ct a breach. Toe battle ia generally fought out
in a low and uninteresting manner, man by man,
ai.d square Ijy square.
I Os ibese two styles the bold player, confident o*
j his powers, and exufticg ia the opjX>:tunity to use
j them, would r.a orally select the tttrnr.er ; while he
J wco telt hi v pelf somewhat Lferior to his opponent
I in the faculties e! combination aud analysis, would
• us naturally chose tbe latter. The ona icay be
I compared to the prudent tactics of Fabiua, the
other to the cia ing assaults 1 1* Napoleon. Morphy,
who ia the Bayard of chese, manifested his sans
! peur character by never seeking refuge beh’-nd tbe
! {.Ltrenchiu; nts ot close games. He chivalrously
I replies to Paten to King's fourth with tbe same
j move, accepts all proffered gambits, and a bws his
! opponent a.I toe advantages cf the fierce attacks of
j t ie Evans and A'-lgaier opening-?, and of the 13iuh-
I ( p's gambit. This is not the case with his adverea*
j rice. They confess their consciousness of infe
! r oriiy in every thing that goes to f >rm tbe great
player, by rcecrting to close defences and over
caurious debuts
•i+iehs cspectany the caso with Mr. ITarwitz. In
the five games already received, the Prussian has
the move three times, the American twice. The
former, when playing nrst always advances pawn
to Q fourth, an opening which inevitably leads
to a close game. When Mr. Pdorphy hes the fir t
move, h; opponent as iuv&riab y plays what is
kr.otva as Phi land or’o Defence, another close game,
it will thus be seen that iu every game Mr. Har
wi z decides the opening, leaving Mr Morphy no
alternative but to play the particular debut eelected
by L : s adversary. Tbe chess public, therefore,
must cot be disappointed if tbe contee’s are not
marked by those brilliant .'aeritices and elegant ter
micalioDs which characterised his combat withEo
glish players. The very nature of the style adopted
byUarv.ilz prec ud* a this. But the match will at
least result in demonstrating that the representa
tive of our conntry is equally gieat, aud equally
feuperior to every living piuyer, not only whea op
pwced to an antagonist who loves au open field of
battle, but also when he encounters a practitioner
who prefers to fivht behind the walla of a close
open jog.
In this connection we take ocearion to correct a
statement which has been circulated by both the
English and Am* rican press, to the effect that the
renowned Heydebrandt von der Lasa was so go
from Berin to Faria to meet Mr. Morphy. Tlra ia
midoub edly a fabrication. Ueydebrandt von der
I/i-a is now Minister at the court of Brazil
and will r.o'. leave Kfo Janeiro for 6ome years. —New

Mr. Morphy in Paris.—The extraordinary feat
cf playing the ei ‘ir games at the same time with
out seeing the board, was performed on Monday, at
rhe Case de la linger ce, by Mr. Morphy, the young
American player. The portion of the Case la Ra
gci:C9 more particularly appropriated to the use of
chess ainateuis, was open as usual to the public,
and in it eat the eight gentlemen who consenud to
be Mr. Morphy’s antagonists. Tho other part of
tho Case further oc, and in which two billiard
tables are placed, was appoiute.d to the ueo of the
blindfold player, who sal a’ the end, with bis back
to the public. A certain line was marked out, be
y nd which only two gentlemen could pass, M.
Jounoud and M. Arnous de Riviere, who had under
taken to announce the moves on butb bides. The
later gentleman < fiiciated f r tho four fir*t players,
MM. Bancher, I'ierwilh, B Toman, and Guioert,
and the former for the last four, MM. Ltquesne,
Polier, Preti, and Seguin. At half past tweive the
combatants having taken their places, in tho pres
ence of about 250 lovers of the noble game, the
play commenced by Mr. Morphy takirg the move,
ana signifying tha- in every one of the tight cases
he played KP2. S.unecf bis opponents replied by
the similar move, whilst others played differently,
f o as to lead to what is called irregular onenings.—
The p'i-y then went on without interrupt *n lor not
lees than ten hours, during which time Mr. Morphy
never took the slightest refreshment. The defini
tive result was that the blindfold player won elx of
t!:.* games, an i dr--wtwo,his opponents being van
qui.ditd m 1110 following ord -r, MM. Pr.-ti (after
seven hours and a hall,) Potier, Bauchei, Borne*

“ Naturals * on a Tour.—A correspondent of
the New Orleans Picayune narrates the following
incident of a recent journey cf Professors Agassiz,
Kdto’n and Dr. Holmes, “the Autocrat,” to the
White Mountains .*
“ The party was so numerous as to require a
special conveyance for their transporta ion from
Conway to tho Crawford House. This conveyance
was a large country wagon, drawn by a team of
fine Green Mountain horses, and driven by a sturdy
son of ibe Granite State.
“ Tae day was one of finest of tho sea on, and
admirably adapted for such au excursion, and every
one, after bis speciality, seem ad to take the keen
est delight in its iuoidtat*. Occasionally the geolo
siifo would *<pr cut sumo curious conformation or
remarkable specimen of reck, and would in-i.-t on
the driver sopping to allow lum to alight and in
vestigute it. This would often consume much time,
and it more than onco occurred that the impatient
Jehu was obiiged Lo remind lhe deeply absorbed
party that the day w u wasting, and that they Jntd a

despair, and the extremity of his perplexity, he

; should remark, had taken no part in the scientific

j “ * What ox; airth’s the matter with them men,

j a 100 e stone or a big dandylion, or thistle in the
I road? Who are tney, anyhow, ’Squire,’ he ex
clamed iu au agony of mingled curiosity and iih

“ ‘Oh,” quietly remaiked our ebsorbed G.ecian,
‘lhey are naturalists.’
“A few days after tbi3 the eame team was enga

“ 4 Wal, considerable, this week or so,’ was the
reply.
“ ‘I euppoee you Lsve about as much S3 you can

“ ‘Pretty nigh,’ replied our Jehu of the wagon.—

before you I never see such a set of fellows !’
“ ‘YV hat, were they like V
“‘Like ! L’ko loenatics, more'n anything else I

The List Man.—Tae Cincinnati Commercial
notices a carious organization of seven young meu
into a society, on the 3i)th September, 1832, while
the cholera was raging iu that city. Their names
were Joseph R Ma-on, Wm. Slaneberry, YYTn Dis
ney, Jr , Dr. Jas. M. Mason, Fenton Lawson Hen
ry L. Xat=m, and Dr. John L. Vattier. These seven
young men had met at the studio of JcseDhK.
Msou, who was then a portrait painter, when the
conversation naturally turned on tne ravages of the
cho'era, and they got into a controversy, whether
the ,ri ease was contagious or non-contagious.
From this they entered into a solemn compact to
meet annually, and dine together as long as they
lived, and that a bottle of wine should be sealed
and di unk in memonam by the last survivor. The
6:h of Outober was agreed upon e.3 the day on which
to hold the anniveisary. The bottle, ot an octa
gonal shape, was died, sealed and placed in a eas
r.et and eacii of the men kept the key year about.
\Y'.',hia the casket, beri.iee toe bottle, were small
slips of oiled paper, on wh-ch each of the men had
written his name, place aud time cf birth, and
place of residence at that time, his age and occu
pation.
YVhoever held the key for the year was to pro
vide the banquet, whether rich or poor, even if it
consisted only of a loaf of bread and a cup of wa
ter, and it was arranged that, however the number
might be reduced by death or absence, seven chairs
and seven plates should be set at each banquet
Should any be absent, those present were bound to
make inquiries as to his whereabouts. Lots were
cast for the keeper of the casket for the first year,
aud it fell to Dr Vattier. The first annual re union
was held on tne fich of October, 1832, eince which
time the full number has never been present. On
the 12th of August, 1853, Henry L. Tatrm died,
leaving Dr. Vattier the sole survivor of this singu
lar club, and on the 6th of October, 1858, tbe Dr.
took the last so itary banquet, there being set six
empty chairs, and as many empty plates.
Practical Joking—“A few days since,” writes
an attorney, “as I was sitting wilh brother C ,
in his office, in Court Square, a client came in and
Said :
• Squire D—, W —. the stabler, shaved me dread
fully yesterday, and I want to come up with him.”
“State your case,’ says D—.
“I Siked him how much he’d charge me for a
horse to go to Dedham. He said one dollar and a
half. I took the team, and when I came back he
said he wanted another dollar and a halt for coming
back, and made me pay it.” .
njy gave him some legal advice, which the
client immediately acted upon. He went to the
stabler and said :
“How much will you charge me for a horse and
wagon to go to Salem ’
Stabler replied, “Five dollars.’
-Harness him up ” ,
Client went to Salem, came back by railroad,
went to the stabler, saying— _
“Here is your money, paying him five dohare.
“YVhere is my horse and wagon ?” says W.
“He is at Salem,” eays Client, “I only hired him
to go to Salem.' 1

Mr. John Van Bureu and bis pktfcrm n.en. Mr.

beoume tho peculiar conservators of southern rights
aud par excellence the custodians of the national
Democracy. They arc to read out Stephen A
Douglas, who baa done more than any man living,
to roll back northern fanaticism. The tutu who at
tho head of tbe gallant sous oi the Souih aud tho
Northern Democracy tore from tho statute book,
the brand ot tbe South's dijtion .r and inferiority in
the Union.
Who is aiding these men in their unhallowed
work iu Ilknoia ? Tho Black Kepublioaiis. While
Douglas is eugngediu mural conflict with their giant
gladiator, tho government officials are planting
their stilettoes in this Di-mocrat “who never falter
ed,” and never faded to fight. There ia not such an
tc: of political infamy in tue annels of depravity, as
that wnich is now being enacted iu Illinois, The
ten ion of the noble nature of Southern Democracy
cannot stand it much longer.
Who .3 aiding them iu Georgia ? Look, andtell
me The “Know Nothings’ to a man, and unfor
tunately for Mr. Cobb, a large portion of these sup
posed to be in his interest for tbe next Presidency,

to do with reani g him out, than any failure lo agree
with the President 1 Don’t he stand ou what Mr.
Cobb aud tbe President said was right, and they
regretted had not been done ? Any eflfur to use
the government to crush out competitors, I don’t
approve. Tuis is not 0119 of tho principles of tbe
party. Why are our Know Nothing iri nds so
buoy at tl is same game i How comee it that they
are ao powerfully exercised iu tbe same way ?
When Democrats find themselves vranirg, “che< k
by jowl,” with this forlorn iquadof desperate :.u
----venturers, they should pause and ritlect. What

there Luo “cat in the meal iub.” The wretched
1 rgni ization proposes to live by Democratic eid.
It will get none horn me.
I never failed to support the Adinin’atration till it
departed from our plattorm, in our Central Ameri
can relations. When it captu ed Water uud Ids
men ‘-mostly from Southern States,” to please tha
British, I thought it. did wrong and I said eo. lis
efforts to ehiitll i off the reepoueibikty upon the poor
subaltern who did its wink was both mournlui aud
tunny. I told Mr. Cobb then the South would
never stand it. Mr. Buchanan was honest, I have
no doubt. “The Count, Sir Gore,” and “My L rd
Nos ier,” had “honey fugled” him, with bis acknow
ledged diblomatic ability, with the idea of getting
Cuba. The wishy-washy article iu the London
Tiin- 8 about our taking Cuba, was “to throw dust.”
The treaties of Sir Gore and Monsieur Belly aud
other developments, almost demonstrate that the
President was swamped. Hut late instructions of
Auguct, t- rough Mr. Ca-s to Mr. Lamar, our Minis
ter to Nicuraeua, are eminently democratic and
progressive. If Mr. Buchanan ha3 the nerve io
carry out what he says about the Monroe doctrine,
he will yet be the most popular President the Re
public ever bad. If Mr. Cobb will quit President
making till tbe time comes, aud lend his gfjct abili
tie:-to aid the executive in maintaining his coun
try's honor and her rights, he will fiad many a
“Cobb man’’ iu Georgia.

Stymies “Arnold” Douglas.—When Ranee
Wright, in 1856, called the “li.tle giant” Stephen
Arnold Douglas, the Democracy became very in
dignant, were ready to tei.r his eyes out. When
Ben liiil denounced him at Lexington, that prince
of demagogues, the notorious “ little E.ick” said he
ought to go out aud hang himself! AU over the
State, every where throughout the South, the people
were as ured that Dougias was tbe great champion
of ihe rights of tbe South. A man was absolutely in
danger of mob viol nee if he denounced Djugivs !
Moat of the men who then lauded him to the ekiee
now denounce him au a traitor! Iu wbal does his
treason consist ! Simply iu refusing to “ back
down ’ from the position he 11 ,-l-i always occupied
when it suited the convenience o! Mr Buchanan

This is the extent of bis offence—nothing ill 1 He
b iD the way of Mr. Cobb, w howishestobethenext
President —in order to remove this lion from his
path, it vu necessary to introduce anew test of
Democracy, one which would compel Douglas
clearly to show hi3 hand on the slavery question.
Although nothing nev lias been developed by this
stratagem—Douglas still occupying the identical
ground which the American party proved he occu
pied in 1C56, when Democracy generally lauded him
as highly as Judge Wright does now —yet, the at
tempt is being made by Mr. Cobb s iriends to put
him down, on the ground ot his alleged unsound
ness
Unfortunately for the Administration and Mr.
Cobb, it turns out that Douglas has about five
eighths of the Democratic party following him. He
will put them down ! Hi - position is such that he
can dictate terms. The Charleston Convention in
1860 will be compelled to nominate whom Douglas
pleases, or else tbe “ little giant,” like Sampson of
old, wil pull down the pillars of the Democratic
temple'.
Nuw, we hope the reader will not understand us
as ?ympa'.hiz ; ug with Douglas—our opinion con
cerning him is unchanged. He has proven himself
to be just what we always thought he was Not
witnetancing this, however, cand-.r compels ua to
admit that our confidence in him is fully as gieat

A Pennsylvania • DuMoCuat."—The following
is tbe political “platform” ou which Hon. C. L
Pershing, one of the Adm'mktration c-.ndidates for
Congress in Pennsylvania, pianted himseit in his
late canvass. We copy it that our people may see
how completely he aud all the other “Democratic”
candidates in Pennsylvania (for they all, w ith one
or two exceptions, made similar pledges) ceserted
the standard of laith recognized among Democ ate
in this latitude Preahing, it is reported, has been
defeated by a Black Republican ; but what need
the'South care whether ne or his rival succeeded ?
His very particular partiality for increa ed protec

connection with the fact that the iron interest is
note more liberally protte’ed than any other great
branch ot American industry. But let him spe k

Pershing on the Tariff —“lf lam elected, I

policies, I em in favor of a Pennsylvania policy.—
When the question comes up in Congreae I am in
favor of tne natural inlereots of all the if

but if such desideratum cannot be realized, then I
am for Pennsylvania against ?be Union.'’ ’
Pershing on Kansas—“ Upon tbi3 question I
have no opinions to conceal Should I te elected

the admission of Kans as the acme at she presents a

people and ratified by them. I will do so, let the
consequences be what they may ; and I do not fear
the consequences ”

A DiscLCfiUßK.—lion. F. P. Stanton, Secretary
under Gov. Walker, in a late fpaeoh at Lawrence,
made the following statement :
He (Mr. S: an ton) c?.me to Kansas in ’57, be
lieving it to be tho intention of Mr. Buchanan lo
deal fairly with the people Had not this been his
opinion, he would never have accepted the po.rilion
or Secretary, nor Walker that of Governor of the
Terri!* ry. justice demanded the admission that
be slid b- lieved the intention of tire Adminiriratton
to have been g/od Its present line of policy was
an a ter thought. Until tire month oi Sepp.'inber he
aud Gov. W ilk .r were suat|jiued throughout by the
Administration. Us would mention one C’.rt um
etaiite which was not generally known, ae showing
this conclusively.
On the Ist or September, General Whi li -Id and
Dr.Tebbe, oi Kansas, who were then in Washing
ton, eigred a letter 4 ‘expressiy stating tlmt the
course of Governor Walker ana S-reretnry S anion
was acceptable io the people of Kcr sa-% inasmuch
es an uedrubted majority were in favor of a free
Ktate.” This letter was written at the special re
quest of Mr. Buchanan , who was aixious to shield
himself from tbe assault then being made upon him j
by lhe South. Through Mr. Buchanan’s agency J
tho letter was sent to the Union t fli i , and was j
actua.ly in type, accompanied by editorial com-{
meats endorsing tbe character oi Dr Tebbs as a |
“gentleman or unimpeachable veracity,” when it
was seen in proof by a Southern member of the
Cabinet., who ordered its suppression. From that
day lathis the course of tie Admixff Oration to

The Whig Leaders c f Georgia Democracy.-
Tue Griffin Union has been taking a survey of the
Democratic camp in this State, and the result, though
incomplete, shows that the Old Line Democratic
leaders have all been dragged to the ranks, aud the
whole concern turned ever to the tender mercies of
renegade Whigs. We annex a paragraph or two,
to which extensive additions might be made :
“To a man who has kept pace with the change
of party alignment in Georgia, it, would lie almost
astonishing to see how many old Whigs are now oc
cupy ing the position of leaders in the Democratic
party. We will mention a few just to ehow Low the
list would run.
“First, as to Congressmen : In the Senate, there
is Mr. Foombs, and Old Whig, now a Democrat;
in the House there are Mr. Seward, fr-in the first
District*, Mr. Craw fold from tho second District;
Mr. Gartrell, from the fourth District; Mr. Wright,
from the fifth District, aud Mr Stephens from lhe
eighth District, ail 0;d Line Whigs. Mr. Iverson
of the Senate and Mr. Jackson, Representative,
from the sixth District are the only original Demo
crats now representing Georgia in Congress
“Now, come to the cewepap r press, and the re
cord is nearly or quite as bad. The e itwr o? the
Augusta Constiturionalist is an Oid Lne Whig ;
the ediror of the Wi!ke3 Republican is an O and L ne
W ; >ig; the editor ot the Macon TriegMph is an O and
Line Whig; the editor of the Empire Stare is an
Old Line Whig; two of three editors of the Atlanta
Intelligencer are Old Line Whigs; cneo> the edi
tors of the Wire Grass Reporter is an Old Line
Whig; hud, (if we mistake net) theeditcrof the
Rome Southerner ian Old Liue Whig All there
papers are now assuming to lead the Democratic
party, aud if the party follow them, st is so coming
a pretty plain case where they will go. Slabbing
ell iron* the Whig party, they started in the direc
tion o’ Democracy, and like all other new cocveris,
they did not know where to stop, and moat, if not
all of them, Lave gone to such an extreme as to
land themselves in the aims of Douglas, whither
they lead all who foffow them.* 1
A writer in the W’ashing.on U; son says “there is
some hmg iuthevery looks of Mr. B;.eh vu;n which
proclaims that iu politics Le knows no geographical
distinction.”
The Union could hardly Lave had the unkindness
to allude to that “squint** iu one of Mr Ba reaoan’s
eyes, which makes him appear to be lojking two
ways at once. Yet it is hard to concrive what el e
it c~uld have been hinting at, in referring to Mr.
Buchanan’s “looks” as proof that he knows no geo
graphical distinctions; ualeas it means that, having
loß f . the confidence of a 1 sections, there is now no
geographical point to which he can look with any
partiul or hopeful interest —Columbus Enquirer.

Within tire next year, 200 miles additional R >ad,

These R a is, wi!h but a single exception, are main
ly the r-. suits oft tho enterprise, ihe energy and capi

We. have Cotton aud Wool and Paper Factories.
Rolling Mills. Foundries and Machine Skopc—Mer

the capital invested.
The cotton crop of the present year will briny
twenty five mi lire n dollars at present prices. Tho
crop o; cereals is worth twice that nuin—the
and toba co crop not being included in the account
The citato tax is not quits one-twefoh oft one per

American Passports Diskegarded uy an Eu
ropean Government- An Amen'on Citizen lot
pressed into the Prussia a Service —Wek&,n from
our correspondent in Ber-iu that ex-Governor Jo
seph A Wright, United Stales Minister t Prussia,
is now corresponding wi h the Admin is? ra ion upon
a highly important subject—nothing lereto.au tht
violation ot our passports by the Government so
which he is accredited.
1? seems au American citizen has been eei'zed by
the PrafS&n Government and rr.nde to serve m he
army. Th’n man is a native of Prue ;ia, but rcigra
ted to tbe United fckates n me years ago; w<ij na
turaiized ; served m the Mexican war with nonor
aua dfttinction, and was wounded in several bat
tles. A lew years ago ho returned to Prussia, ior
the purpose of visiting Lis relation-;, when ne was
seized as a Prus ian subject, and m .de to serve in
the Prussian army, cur oft from his wife, children
and property iu his adopted country. Another
case:—Au old man, ninety years of age, who emi
grated to the United Staten when he was ten yea; a
of age, mamed an American lady, and ia the lather
of seven children, thus spending eighty ye are of Lie
life in America, (the husband of an American lady,
aiid the lather of seven American citizen*,) retu n
d two or t-<ree months s.uce to Prussia on a visit
to his relations, end ny ihe mereet[accident escaped
the Seizure ol the Pru-oian Government (for imprt’ *
ict-nt iLto its army; wrih tne aid of friends and ex
cellent good luck.
We iuit President Buchanan and his able Cabi
net, who have thus far managed our foreign reia
•fons with pre-emiuent ability, will look immediate
ly to ihcre violations of the rights of American Citi
zenship by a European oespotieoi, and see that
they are not repeated.
Why give a man an American passport if we do
not intend to make it respected and recognized by
the governments of Europe? It ii ti e m ;ies
farce on earth, in fact worse than a farce, as our
ycULg Republic is thus degraded and disgraced in
the eyes of the world. She avows the doctrine of
ezpa riation. while she seemingly appears airaid to
eniorce it. Defying tbe goverr.menuj ot Europe in
a b ertmg dooirines, yttUt veriest coward in doing
in re than avow them. vVe ceg of tbe
tion to make no delay in demanding the le eass of
thns adopted soldier-citizen of America. Wo feei
sure the demand will merreDtaueouely be obeyed oy
the Pruiian Government; if not, M t . Buchanan
will have au opportunity of asserting and enforcing
the r:ght of expatriation, and this, with tue cure
eion or the right oi search, which he has obtained
fr%>m E':g*and, entitle his adini; is.raiion to one
of tiie brightest pages ot our poliucai hiriory.—
