The philosophy of this is, that the

that objects in slow motion have some
rests or pauses, though perhaps un
known to the objects themselves—even
as we spell every word in reading, how-
rapidly, though the mind is totally
npcons clous of the process. In one of
these vanishing rests the object is seiz
ed and transferred to tho plate. The
necessity of great skill and practice is
apparent here; for the camera must be
closed the instant the object is caught qr
there will be a blur—such as that which
accompanies fast-moving objects. Un
doubtedly a race-horse could be . taken,

THE DEATH BED OF GENER
AL HARRISON.
A personal friend of the President,
shocked, as every body must be, at ani
atrocious publication in tbo Globe news
paper, respecting tbe death-bed of the
lamented Harrison, has condescended
to notice and reprobate it iri an annexed
article. We should have thought, until
we saw the Globe of Thursday eveniag.
that party ferocity would have releuted
on approaching a scene hallowed by the
regrets of a whole nation; aud would
not nave dared so revolting an outrage
on truth ond decency.
SHOCKING DEPRAVITY OF A.PRESS.
In the leading editorial article in the
Globe of the 15th inst. amoug other
gross and wicked untruths, is thefollow-
ing shocking falsification of the “ death
bed scene” of Gen. Harrison:
** The scene of his deatb-bed, howev
er, showed, in the most affecting man
ner, tbe state of his feelings in regard to
the matter that had engrossed them from
tbe moment he had entered office.—
From persons who nursed and watched
by him, it is known that whenever his
mind began to wander, he gave utter
ance to tbe secret thoughts that oppress
ed him; and he continuallv recurred to
tbe distressing scenes ho bad recently
passed through. Sometimes he would
say “ my dear madam,. I did not direct
that yottr hatband should be turned out.
I did not know it. 1 tried to prevent it.”
On other occasions be would say in bro
ken sentences : “ It is wrong. 1 won't
consent—’tis unjust.” Again : “ These
applications will never cease T* From
different and unquestionable sources,
we are informed that the malady of liis
heart, which broke out into expression
in bis partial delirium,or when his mind
was abstracted in a sort of slumber, half
awakened by his anguish, constantly
manifesting itself by uttering some
snatches of sentences like those we have
quoted.’*
Now, however much party spirit may
bo indulged in the official abuse of Gen.
Harrison that was published againsthim
living there can be no exercise of, nor
paliation for, such gross inventions as
these after he is dead. What is here
said is not only not true, but not even
approximating a truth ; and all these
sayings imputed to Gen. Harrison are
the malicious inventions of tho writor
for the Globe.
The Globe is again guilty of a gross
untruth in saying that as to removals
from office, General Harrison’s Cabinet
differed in opinion from the President
by a vote of four for removals, and two
against, and that tiiis majority voted
down, the President. This is all sheer
inventing, for was not only impossible
to remove executive officers without the
President’s consent, but Gen. Harrison
presided over and directed every Cabi
net meeting. The first removal made
which settled tbe principle of action
was that of the Collector of New York,
which President Harrison concurred
with every member of Ills Cabinet.
The utmost uhion and harmony exis
ted between Gen. Harrison and nis Ca
binet, notwithstanding all the Globe in
sinuates to the contrary. The express^
cd to bis friends repeatedly his gratifi
cation that he had boon able to rally a-
round him so able and united a body of
conitttuioosl adyisqra.
' The attempt of the Globe to extol
Gen. Harrison dead, after itq^ innumera
ble personal attacks made'upon him as
a citizen, as a citizen, as a soldier, as a
statesman, will pass for-what itis worth;,
but tlie assertion there that,lie intended
to keep his friends proscribed by keep
ing in office the men who for twelve
years had monopolized aU tbe honors
arid emoluments of the country, who
were to iutve nothing, while his enemies
had every thing, or that he .intended to
sanction, by a continuance in office; tbe
conduct of the men who had prostituted
the power and purid of their places to
keep their monopoly up, is all pore , fic
tion, which he himself pronounced so
in the m^ny removals be himself nude
and was making up to the. hour 6f his
fidential assurance from • Mr. Fox, that
our government was disposed to act
/ with just magnanimity,;-and an anxious
desire, fot the preservation of peace. -

the church, unlock the pew door, step
in, and turn tho key. Finally, ho came
there one Sabbath, and (bund the pew

open .by' means of a staple, chain and
padlock, and the wife, two daughters
and boys of Lyon in tbe pew, filling it
:up completely.
a» ben ordered them oat, but the
mother told the children to ‘stick/ when
he ejected the-two boys by force, took
a seat in tbe pew, and retained it during
tlie morning service. When that was
oiret be. went to a neighbor and borrow
ed a file with which he commenced filing
the chain. While be was about it, die
parties got into dispate, and finally Mrs.
Lyon, laid hold of one end of tho chain
and Brice the other, when the daughter
of Mrs. L. came to her aid and drew die
chain through the hand of Frice, hurting
it so severely that he has since last tho
nieofone of his fingers. For this bo
brought the suit, but after a full bearing
it was dismissed by putting tbe costs on
the plaintiff.
NOVEL CASE.
Tho Boston Times of tbe 17th relates
the following interesting case, tried in
the Court of Common Pleas of that ci
ty. Tbe circumstances which led to the
suit were as follows:—•• Ezra S. Win-
sor, Captain of the ship Coliseum, paid
liis addresses to a young lady named
Adeline P. Thompson, and engaged to
marry her. In 1837, previous to going
on a voyage to Antwerp, he presented
her with a gold watch as a token of re
membrance, and his love. He also pro
mised to have his portrait painted and
sont to her. While in Antwerp be. ful
filled this promise by getting his portrait
painted and sent to her. On his retain
tbe ship was cast away and he was lost.
His mother, Keziah Winsor, was ap
pointed administratrix of his estate, and
fri settling up the affairs claimed tbo
watch and . portrait of tbe young lady
whieb sb* properly refused to give up.
The mother brought a suit of repleven
to recover the property.
The mother and sister of the young
day,_ and the Union or Tory cand
earned by brute force. Bullies were
hired to attend the polls at various places^
and enable the Tories toprevail by driv
ing off the. Franco-Cariadians. At St.
Elizabeth, one -was killed, and m&ny,
now sick or thieir wounds, will not’
cover. The. quarrel was worthy ofBir-
mingham-and tlie Chartists They fell
upon-the'Canadians with sticks taken
ftom a corded wood pile, arid knoolced
them'down withshUIalahsor any bludge
ons they could find. Soldiers were fail
ed out to quell the riots iri York, i In
Beaubardnis, the Liberal candidate wa
compelled by force to retire, and prom
against the disgraceful proceedings \ii
Vaudrieul. Those facts need no col
mentary; no elucidation need boe
pended ripon them. They are atop o
proof thatthe English Government is, o
say the leait. not too scrupulous in tl a
means adopted forregulating Canada.
The disorders seem riot to have.ber a
confined to Canada alone. The Houfe
of Assembly*,of Newfoundland recent
passed an Address to the' LieuteH
Governor of the Island^ requesting ft
