An Extraordinary Atlair—Ottoman Currrency Counterfeited In lew York to the Extent of Four lUllion Eight Hundred Thousand Dol lars! Amongthe receift hems of news from Turkey, was one in reference to the arrest of a woman, up on the charge of counterfeiting, as she was about to disembark at Constantinople from the steamer in which she had come ns a passenger from Eng land. Idle amplitude of her crinoline first attract ed to this woman the attention of the police; her conduct then excited their suspicions, and she was arrested and searched. Her dress, it was found, was thickly quilted with counterfeit notes, in imitation of the “caimes”—a paper currency of the Ottoman government—each worth forty pi astres, or eight dollars in our currency; and her trunks were furnished w ith false bottoms, in which a large number,of the counterfeits were packed. After her. arrest, she was carried before the Minis ter of Police, where site confessed her guilt, and represented that she was a Moldavian, named Mrs. Sevasti, but under an assumed name, had procured the counterfeit paper to lie printed in the city of New York, by a printer in Duane street, named Harrison. A dispatch -stating these and other facts confessed by the woman was .sent by the Ot toman government, through its Minister in Lon don, to J. Horsford Smith,-Ottoman consul at New York, who, as soon as he received it, went before the Mayor (on Thursday .morning last) and made the following affidavit: City anti County of Xetn York, ss.—J. Hosford Smith, Consul for the Ottoman Porte, in the city of New York, being duly sworn, deposes and says that he has received a dispatch from thh Ottoman Government, through the Turkish Minister in Lou den stating that Mrs. Sevasti, a Moldavian, has arrived at Constantinople from England, with a considerable quantity of "caimes,” or paper money, consisting of six hundred thousand pieces of paper money, of twenty piastres each: and that said Mrs. Sevasti has, during a judicial proceeding or interrogation, made before the Minister of Police, stated that she, under the assumed name of Madame Zaifmen, had caused the said “caimes,” or paper money, to be printed in the city of New York, by a ceitain Haxrrison. a hook printer in New-York, at Duane street. No 82. That she had taken away four -plates, in order to print the imperial “Toughra,” or signature of the Snltan, and seal for the reverse of the “caimes,” and that there remain beside sixten pieces of each of these plates in the magazine of the above named printer and in his possession; as well as the torn and dirty “caimes" among those which she has caused to be made. And deponent further says that he has full reliance in the authority of the information thus ccnvpyed, and he believes tliat the said “caimes,’’ and the plates for printing them, or some part thereof, are now concealed on the premises, or in the possession -of the said Harrison at No. 82 Duane street, in the ward of New York. And deponent turther says that the said “caimes” are paper money issued by and under the sanction of the Turkish Government, and that they circulate as money therein, and be believes that the said Harrison had printed, the same with the intent ♦o deceive and defraud, and that the same should he uttered and disposed of with a fraudulent design; and deponent prays that said—Harrison may be arrested, and that a search warrant be is sued to seize on the said plates and counterfeit “caimes,” which he lias reason to believe, and does believe, are in the possession of said Harrison at No. 82 Duane street. J. Hosford Smith, Ot toman Consul. Sworn to before me. this 7th day of Oct., 1858. ) Daniel F. Tiemakn, Mayor. $ The Journal of Commerce, of the 8th inst .in which we find this affidavit, gives the following account of the proceedings taken upon it by tiie Mayor. The Mayor entrusted the case to the manage ment of Sergeant Birnev who visited Mr. Harri son’s printing office, and to’d him of ihe nature of his business. Mr. H. expressed himself greatly surprised, and protested his perfect innocence of auy collusion with the Turkish fraud. He frankly acknowledged that he had printed the “caimes,” but said that he had no knowledge of their real nature—which, is not at all strange, as they look very much like the labels on fire crackers or Turkish tobacco, and, being destitute of signa. tures, or the usual bank note devices, would con vey to no uninformed mind the idea of a paper currency. The note is about five inches long by foor wide; printed on common looking paper, and the engraving of the face presents a mere jumble of Turkish character and emblanies. The back bears a small round impression, which proves to be the seal of the Sultan, but which looks like a meaningless anagram to one not ac quainted with the fact. Mr. H. was anxious to have the mystery thoroughly sifted, and freely told Sergeant Birney all the facts in his posses sion. He says that about the first of July last he was called upon by a lady of smart, respectable ap pearance, about forty years of age, speaking broken English, who showed him one of the "caimes,” and informed him that it was a label of which she desired to have six hundred thou sand copies made. She wished him to have an exact engraving taken from it, and the quality of paper to be imitated as closely as possible, and asked him his price for managing the who busi ness. Mr. Harrison told her that he would do the printing for one dollar a thousand, with an extra charge for the actual cost of engraving, the paper, and other incidental work- To this she agreed. The woman’s mannerwas plausible, and Mr. Har rison naturally supposed that the-queer looking picture was a label for some patent medicine, oriental balm, fig paste, or other preparation wherewith to tickle the public. He therefore closed the fcargin without hesitation or suspicion, and immediately gave the engraving job to Mr. Orr, who soon made a perfect duplicate of the original The woman, who gave her name as Madam Z.-iif- ireu, called from time to time to see proof of the work, and expressed a particular anxiety that the imitation should be faultlessly exact. She was es- oecially solicitous about the small circular figure (the Sultan's name) to lie printed on the back. Mr. Harrison visited paper dealers in the city to obtain material similar to that of the lahils, hut without success and at last he was obligd to resort to the paper manufactures at Kiugslsnd Mill. Belleville, New Jersey, who of course readily undertook the task and turned out an article so near like the Im perial fabric that it would puzzle a good judge to tell them apart. Mr. H. then had stereotype plates made of the engraving and printed the “labels,, in sheets of twenty each. Everybody around his uf- ficewas familiar with the work, people going in and out examined it. and though its strange ap pearance gave rise to some guessing, nobody for a moment suspected its real character. The job was speedily finished, and about the 23d of July Mr. H. delivered the six hundred thou sand “labels,” to Madame Zaifmen, who was then stopping at the Astor House. The documents made about six reams of paper, anil tilled three large trunks. She paid him all hi# bill, excepting three hundred dollars, for which he took her note,, as she said aim was out of money, and he could do no better qmh-r the circumstances. This was the last that he had heard of her or her “labels,” until 8ergeact Bixtiey made Ids visit. Mr. Harrison showed the Sergeant a large bnn- dle of the “caimes' —several thousand of them— which were laid aside by the printers, as not quite up to the standard of perfection insisted on by Mr#. Zatlmen, who was evidently a good judge of the fine arts. The precious bundle was lying a- round loo#a with other parcels in the office. It was delivered into the Sergeant's possession, with all the plates used in the printing. The latter were piled away with Mr. Harrison’s other stock, and it was plain that there was no intention what ever of coucealiiig any of the property. The Sergeant took Mr. Harrison before the May or, where he gave bail to answer in the sum of four thousand dollars. The Journal of Commerce also publishes the fol lowing card, addressed to the public by Mr. Har- risou: The undersigned desires to state, in refer ence to the charge made by the Turkish consul, of printing “caimes,” or paper money, such as is used by the Turkish Government, that he is en tirely and absolutely innocent of any criminal knowledge or intent in the whole matter, not hav ing entertained the remotest suspicion, at the time tliejob was done, or since, that the printing which be executed could be put to any illegal use. The job came to his office apparently in the regular course ol business; the womau, being a stranger to him, was told the rules of the office, requiring from strangers a reference, or an advance payment; she chose the latter alternative, and the job was putin hand, and executed as soon as it could convenient ly be dyne. The “labels’” as she called them, and which he supposed were to be used ou some nos trum or article of commerce of eastern origin, from their beirrg Chinese characters upon them, were [ printed from the ordinary stereotype plates used [ by job printers in their business. The wood en graving was made by Mr. J. \V. Orr, who does ail the subscriber’s engraving; the plates were electro- typed where he has all that kind of work done; tiie paper was made by dealers from whom he pur chased largely: and tliejob was printed openly in his office, in the view of strangers, visitors and cus tomers, having been oil the press some fifteen days and seen during that time by hundreds of persons, no concealment or secresy, nor the slightest at tempt at privacy, being made by him, from the moment lie made the bargain until tliejob was de livered at tile Astor House. Indeed, so little did tin- undersigned suppose he had been doingauy- thing wrong or illegal in printing this job, tJiat these “labels," which now prove to he Turkish pa- | per money, have been lying loose around his of fice since July last; and a large quantity ot them, which (lie office hoys had been using as waste pa per, were on the shelf in full view of the officer when he came to make the arrest: The electrotype plates also were in the cupboard with the plates of all his other customers. There is »othing in the appearance of these "label#” to lead any one to suspect they could he used as paper money. They are about the size of the printed paper that comes on a pack of Chinese fire crackers, and are partly- covered with similar characters. To those who know the subscriber personally, any assurance of his entire innocence of any guilty knowledge in the matter, he feels is unnec essary; but to stranger# and the public at large, this statement is submitted, to the end that his un suspicious and innocent connection with tho trans action may be correctly understood. \Vm. L. S. Harrison, Job Printer, No. 82 Duane Street. New York, Oct. 7, 1858. “The IVorid owes mr a Living.” For native symplicity, good sense and manliness the Indians have ever been remarkable, and until the introduction of “Jire tcatcr'' and the degradation of the white man's vices, they' were never known to play the part of tiie loafer. Under the above caption the Cayuga Chief holds the following talk. Every loafer should read it attentively; “IVorid owes you a living?” That’s false, sir! It dosen’t owe you a farthing. You owe the world A aev Armor t# Mr Pacific Posses sion#. THE TEHUANTEPEC ROUTE—SAILING OF THE COMPANY’S NEW STEAMER SUCllIL. To decide upon the comparative merits of each of the respective routes—Panama, Nicaragua, and Tehauntepec, and say which has the strongest claim to public favor would be difficult, inasmuch as each has some physical; or natural objection or advange, which does not belong to the other. For instance, the Panama has a safe, quick passage by Railroad across tire. Isthmus of only a few hours, but the distance is so much greater than by either of the others, that this advantage is lost sight of, and considered of no account. The Nicaraguan route is claimed to be some 700 miles nearer than the Panama, with fine harbors on both sides, a delightful climate, and a safe and easy transit across the Isthmus; and the present company has by securing, as we stated yesterday, the two splendid steamers of the Collins line, the Atlanta and the Baltic, secured for tie- route a most favorable imptession. The Tehuantepec, of which we intend to speak more fully, for the reason that' so little has been sai l about it, possesses oue great advantage over both—distance. By this route the distance be tween New Orleans and San Francisco is said to be 1,9 Ml. and between New York and the latter 1.4IMI miles less than either of the other. There is another feature which would seem to commend it to the public favor, and that is the quiet and effi cient manner in which the affairs of the company have been conducted. Perhaps no enterprise has ever been started and carried ou more successiully or oue in which so many practical business men tire to be found — Mayor Barnard. I . 8. Engineer Corps,assisted by Mr. IVin. II. Sidell, surveyed the route for the railroad which is to connect the river steamer with the ships an the other side. These gentlemen are too well known in rail road circles, both at home and abroad, as having been connected with some of the great engineer ing enterprises of the day, to require any notice from os. Mr. Sidell was for some time the assistant of Maj. Huges on the Panama Railroad, since then la- has i cabled fifteen mouths on the Tehuantepec route, engaged with Major Barnard in surveying the railroad for this Company, so that he under stands well the topography and nature of the coun try. This company, which has gone so quietly into operation, is called the "Louisiana Tehuantepec Company.” It is organized under the general laiv ot Louisiana, which is similar to the manu facturing and mining law of this State. The cap ital is $8,000,000, divided into shares of $100 each. Emile L<- Sere of New Orleans, is Presi dent: Hargotis Brothers of this city, are agents; and Senator Benjamin of Louisiana, general attor- ney. The company have not issued any stock, hut will in the course of a few months.

I am instructed by the directors to forward for publication the an nexed report from Mr Varlev, the electrician to the Electric and international Telegraph company.— He is one of the gentlemen who has been con sulted by the Board of reference to the present state of the Atlantic Cable. Yours truly, bfiOROt Sew aud. Secretary. Report on 'hi state of th~. Atlantic Telegraph Qu ids. Lendon September 18.—I arrived at Valentia on the evening of the5th inst when I found that no words had for many' days been received through the Cable from Newfoundland. On the 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th I tested the cable at intervals in four different ways to ascertain its condition. The following are the re- sults: I. There is a fault of great magnitude at a dis tance. of between 245 and 300 statute miles from Valentia, but the locality cannot be more accu rately ascertained until a portion of the cable, 20 or 30 miles in iengih. has been tested against my taudard of resistance and until the log has been onsultcd to ascertain the amount of slack paid out. I would suggest that the piece of cable at Greenwich be carefully measured aud tested a- gainst my standard, in order to obtain the most correct estimate of the distance of the fault. As suming, however, that it is 271) miles, and allow ing 22 per cent. for slack, it is impossible that the chief defect is in shallow water—410 fath oms. 2. The copper wire at the faulty place above alluded to does not touch the iron covering of the cable as is proved l>y its forming a valtaic element, which gives rise to a continuous positive current from the copper wire varying very little in tension. 3. Theiusnltation of the wire between Valentia and the fault is perfect, or at least contains no defect of sufficient importance to be perceptible or to materially influence the working were the cable otherwise perfect. 4. The copper wire is continuous, and conse quently the cable has not parted. Faint signals or rehearsals are still received from Newfound- land, but the power used w ill shortly cat away too Opening out ot this shop, and near the RouuJ I exposed copper wire in the faulty place by elec- Hous-,are the Boiler shop and the Coppershop trolitic decomposition. (From the National American.] A Day at the Mate But Stops. A few days ago we made a visit to the shops of the Western and Atlantic Railroad in this city for the purpose of getting aii inside view of the buildings whose exteriors present so imposing ati an appearance. In the main passage of the office buildings wo passed a venerable looKing gentlpman, dressed in a suit of blue Kentucky Jeans which had evident ly' “seen some service.” Seeking our esteemed lriend Mr. IV. II. Barnes, we were by him intro duced to the present Superintendent, Dr John !v- Lewis whom we found to be the gentleman we had before passed, so unpretendingly attired.— We found him to be a “gentleman of the olden time”—a stern disciplinarian, but. with a kind heart. By him we were escorted through the buildings making up the workshops and offices where is conducted all the important business connected with this great State work. • Commencing with the transfer of freight, we were shown the arrange ments for keeping all the property not in use, safe from the effects of the weather, and the dep redations of the mischievous. Returning we were taken to the wood shop, a building oue hun dred and forty feet in length and sixty in breadth ivhere some stock cars ot superior and improved construction are being built, preparatory to the trade of the coming winter. Passing through an open space, we next entered the Blacksmith shop on - hundred and twenty feet long and forty feet wide, where there arc twelve furnaces, ten of which are in almost constant use. The most uo- ticable features of this department are a steam (or tilt) hammer, used to draw and weld heavy iron and an air generator. Avery large axle was being welded at the time. The air generator oc cupies about six feet square in one corner of the Smith Shop, and is powerful enough to create a blast, at each forge. At right angles with these two shops is the Machine or finishing shop, two hundred feet long and sixty feet wide, which is furnished with every implement necessary to per form work from the most minute repairs to the building ofan Engine. In proof of this, we saw part ofan Engine which had been commenced by the former superintendant, on which about three thousand dollars worth of work had been lone, but is left unfinished because not needed.— and foundry, each fifty feet long and forty feet wide. From the finishing shop we emerge into the Round House, which is two hundred and fifty feet diameter. This is a splendid specimen of archi tectural design and mechanical execution. Here one becomes appaled. almost, as the eye wanders over the various machines which are housed there and contemplates their wondrous power. Here were some ready for duty—others undergoing re pairs and one or two worn out and condemned.— In the centre-is the turning table,so perfect in its construction, that with an engine upon it of twen ty tons weight, or more, it maybe turned by a boy. At the end of tho finishing shop which connects with the Wood shop are the Pattern and supply room, and the office where the accounts are kept with the Engines, showing the amount of labor performed, and the number of miles rim by each ry cord of wood,-quart of oil and pound of tallow. Leaving the Round House wo came to the De pot and main office building. The whole struc ture is one hundred and sixty feet long and forty wide. From the western end. which is nearest he Round House, there risesa building three tories, or nearly fifty feet high, and containing welve rooms, four on each floor, leaving the Do pot proper, which is nearest the business centre of A'lanla. one hundred and twenty feet long.

Cotton Ricking.—This is still the pressing bus iness of the plantation for this month, and every moment should be devoted to it that can be spar ed from other urgent work that must necessarily receive the planters attention. Pick trow with all available force, while the weather is dry and warm as ere long the short days -of whrter, -with the chilling winds, will be upon you, when cotton picking becomes a tedious and disagreeable busi ness. Corn and Pens.-—The housing of these crops is a part •of (be urgent work alluded to above, and should now bc’-Rttetided to as soon a# possible, as much waste resohe from allowing them to remain longer in the field. It is quite an object iu this country—by which wo mean the cotton ritates— to put up com in such's way as to protect it from the ravages of the weevil. This however, can never be accomplished with anj' degree of certain ty, until our planters get in the habit-of construc ting corn houses that will first protect their coru from rats. Whatever of care and attention maj - be necessary for the construction of a barn or bin, for the protection of your wheat, not less, surely, should be devoted to the construclion’ot your corn houses, for the protection of your corn—to the planter a much more valuable grain. Pick j oui peas and put them up in a close bouse in tiie bull and dry, and the weevil will do them little or no injury. Pick and weigh them up care fully as youdo yonr cotton: at planting time j’ou will get a bushel for every 100 pounds. Sweet potatoes—This crop should be housed to wards (be close of this month. There is an old Indian notion prevalent among,planters of Indian origin, we suppose, that “frost should kill the vines first.” It is -immaterial in what way you put up your potatoes; you -have no guarantee that they w ill keep sound if the vines be killed by frost before j'ou dig them. Frost, sufficiently hard to kill the vines, will freeze the surface of the earth to a sufficient depth to chill and seriously injure many of the roots. Do not delay digging bejond the 20tli in this latitude. * From the Ohio Statesman, October 6. The Ohio State Douse on Fire—Loss of valua ble Documents. About 5 o’clock yesterday morning those of our citizens residing iu the viciuitj- of the -State Capi tal buildings were aroused by the alarm of fire, given by the workmen on the artesian well in the State House yard It was discovered that the basement room in the Northeast corner of the building, directly under the office of the. Secretary of State, and used by the Secretary as aslurerooni, and by workmen as a paint shop, was being rapidly enveloped in flames. A few minutes after the first alarm the steam fire engine was on the ground, and was soon followed by the “Capitol” machine, both of which poured a tremendous stream of water through the windows, the steam engine on the north side and the Capitol on the east.” An immense volume of smoke escaped through the two windows, followed by sheets of fire, leap ing up into the very faces of the fiiemeu, making it extremelj' difficult to reach thepoint from which the flames arose, as all the avenues loading to the room were locked aud full of smoke. A large pile of stationery, wrapping and printing paper, in a corner of the subterranean room, was wrapped in flames, and it was a I most impossible to reach it with water. But the strenuous exertions of the firemen were successful, and the flames succumbed after an hour’s bard work. The room was opened, but for some minutes was hot as a furnace. The stationerj- iu the room, valued at about $400, was totally destroj'ed. Almost $300 worth of heavy glass, jnst placed in the room the day before, was a total loss. Considerable painting apparatus and raw materials, valued at from $200, to $300, belonging to the contractor, Hamilton Cummings of Cincin nati. w ere destroyed. Five or six hundred volumes of public doc uments, embracing the only complete set extant of documents from the first organization of the Territorial government to the present time, were totally ruined. These documents were of great value as records, and it will he impossible to replace them. Their real value is incalculable, though probably the whole lot would not have sold for $100 The total loss of the State will per Imps reach $500; aside from the expenses of repairing the room, the wails, windows and doors of w hich are considerably damaged As lo ihe origin ot tile fire, nothing is known. The door# were locked, and th-ie was butene opening in the room through which tire could have been communicated to the material Inside, which was a window let down from the top about four inches. No smoking was allowed in the shop, and it is thought to bo the work of an incendiary, though what object any one could have had inset ting fire to the stuff must be a matter of specula tion. m 11 _ A project i# mentioned by the New York Jour nal of Commerce to station steam-tugs in the Straits of Magellan, to carryships through this famous passage, and thus avoid the detentions of sail vessels in Doubling Cape Horn.

A number of ladies and gentlemen accompanied the K. to Staten Island. The Suchil has since been telegraphed from Nor folk—all safe. This beautiful steamer is to run on the Coatza- cnalcos River, between Minitillan and .Suchil, a distance of 70 miles, f rom the latter to Ventosa on the Pacific side, 110 miles. Over this route passengeis are to be convejed by coaches and placed on board the Pacific mail steamers from .San Francisco and other Pacific ports. The dis tances may he stated as follows; From New Or leans to Miniatitlan by steamer, 840 miles; from Miuiatitlan to Suchil, 70miles; from Suchil to Ven tosa. 110‘miles, making 1,020 r.iriesfrorn New Or leans to Ventosa, which is 1,250 miles from Pana ma, aud that distance nearer San Franceso. The time occupied between New Orleans and San Francisco will not exceed fifteen days, and when the railroad is completed, the time will be less. The estimated cost of the railroad, 110 miles long, is $5,000,0(10. The railroad will eventuallj' be continued down to Miniatitlant, which will do awaj' with ail river navigation—then passengers will be transferred direct from tiie steamer and taken from the Pacific side by railroad, the same as now done by the Panama. The road when extended will be M»0 miles long and is estimated will cost $9,01.0,000.

We have been especially favored during the past mouth with the most delicious weather that has ever been experienced, even within the memory of that somewhat mj-thical individual, the oldest inhabitant. A clear sky, an ambient atmosphere, cool daj s and magnificent nights go far to Beep us all iu good humor; while Ceres and Flora shower their gifts in profusion for the delectation of the gormot's palate, or the adornment of the boudoir of ladies iarr. The artery of commerce and fashion, Broadway, flows from morning till night with a human tide, affording a splendid study for the phi losopher, the lounger, the myralist and the philan thropist. Everj fcodj’ seems to have forgotten the crisis aud the revulsion and the stagnation of last year; and by the accounts of the Broadway shop keepers, wl*o saj" that the richest and dearest fab rics find the readiest, market, it would seem that the lessons ot economy which were inculcated by the hard tim^s have vanished like words written in the sands of the sea-shore. We are aware that much of the activity of the retail trade in articles of luxury is ow ing to the great influx of 8ouherneis who have been driven away from their homes by the yellow fever. They have filled up the hotels to an unprecedented extent aud rolled no end of dollars zuto the pockets -of tie landlords. But deeper than this southern surplusage there are signs of a lively season in tie world of fashion and folly. IVe have three periods in the fashiona ble world. In the summer months New York is comparatively deserted' for Saratoga, Newport, and other resorts of the votaries of pleasure. In September, October, aud November the metrop olis again becomes the iieadquarters of the beau THoeile, which includes people with more money than brains, people with braius arid no money, anil people without either brains or money. They are all here now. In December they will flit away to Washington, which city will be unusually gay this season. It is the short season of Congress, and all tin- dining, wining, fliriing, dancing, and so on, will have to be done in a great hurry. In April we shall have them all in Broadw ay again, ready for the spring and summer campaign. Thus we have the metropolis as the headquarters of fashion, as it is of commerce, the mechanic arts, literature, and the fine arts. Just now we are all iu glorious condition, and laugh at old Jupiter I’lnviuswho has made three several attempts to spoil our sjtorts by getting up an equinoctial storm; lint they have all been inferable failures. Some people say it is all owing to the comet. If so. some demonstration of admiration to the illus trious stranger would he in older. Iu ihe old times the comet was an unw elcome visitor, being regarded as a forerunner of evil; but that is an exploded humbug. If, now, the cornet has revived trade tilled up the hotels, kept off the equinoctial, and set all the aristocracy—codfish, pork, and otherwise—in a flutter of expectation, then we saj’, hurrah for the comet, as a first-rate institution! Let the comet blaze awhile longer if the weather holds fair. —— The deepest coal pit in Great Britian, and prob ably in the world, has, after twelve years’ labor, during which some important mining problems have been solved, just been completed aud opened at Dukiuticld, Cheshire. The shaft of this extraor dinary pit is 6864 yards deep, and the sinking of it cost X 160,0060. ry branch, is being adopted as fast as need I repairs, or true economy,call for them. Ourat- \ tention was directed to the Truck for Engines, w ith outside bearings, whereby an Engine, will run enough more miles with one oiling, to ac complish a saving in oil of about uinetj’ per cent. ()ne fiftv-horse-power stationery Engine drives all the machinery in this magnificent establish ment. It is a beautiful piece of mechanical skill and runs with so little noise and jar as to excite wonder—in fact did one not see it, its proximity would hardly he realized. This is stationed about the centre of one side the Finishing Room, aud ad joining the Smith Shop. IVe were shown, in the Finishing Room a new switch, the invention of Mr. Mark M. Dooly, which has been patented by him. It is a combina tion of the Switch and Frog, and is accounted an important invention for Railroads. Mr. Dooly, by merit, has been advanced from Lumber Train ■conductor to an important and responsible position on the Road. To provide against the destruction by fire of these immense and costly buildings, everj - precau tion has been taken of which human foresight is capable. Near the centre, in a small brick house and occupying but tittle space, is a small but pow erful lire engine worked by steam, fitted with hose, which discharges a stream one inch and oue- cighth in ciameter Six fire plugs distributed in different convenient and exposed places, with a supply of hose, afford a control of all parts of the property. As a general thing a stream could be played upon a tire on the premises within ten minutes from the time of the alarm. An oppor- tunitj- was courteously offered us of witnessing the performance of this “little giant” by Dr. Lewis in much less time than that mentioned, it was dis charging a horizontal stream to the distance of about oue hundred and twenty-five feet, and tlien was turned upon llie majestic smoke stack, which is considerably over one hundred feet high, over which it threw water with the greatest ease.— There is always at command a s.,-. hours’ supply of water, within fifty feet of the engine, and a further supply w ithin an available distance, to be added by means of machinery should the above be exhausted. I bus it will be seen that everj thing possible to be done has been done, to perfect the outfit oper ations. Its entire arrangements are upon a scale with the interest at stake, and reflect the highest credit upon the projectors. It is to be deplored tlii: its management prior to the present Admin- | istration has led our people to regard it with such decided disfavor. IVe undertook this discription that our people, aud others interested, might know the extent and value of this propertj'. The information we sought was freely supplied bj - the venerable and courteous Superintendent and the other officials, j K ir0 ^ e i( c if thev please all of whom evinced the greatest readiness to im-1 i; zad >> ’ part all required for our purpose. Although less j perfect and full than we might desire, our des cription maj- serve our design. It is all our lim ited time and knowledge could accomplish. It is proper probably, to remark that, our visit was dictated lij’ no selfish or partizan purpose.— Ourselves and the Governor and those under him who have immediate charge of the Road, are inde- —......l. .l ble and, consequently, into the test w ire, the elec- tricily burnt through the incision, rapidly burning a hole nearlj - one tenth of an inch in diameter. When the lull force of the coils was brought to bear on the test wire by removing them from the cable and allowing the electricity only one chan nel—viz; That of the test wire—the discharges, as might he expected, burnt gutta perelia under the water halt an inch in length, and the burnt gutta perelia came floating up to the surface. The foregoing experiments prove that when there are imperfections in the insulating covering there is verj great danger arising from using such intense currents. The size of the present conducting strand is too small to have worked satisfactorily, even had the insulation been sound. With a strand of larger dimensions less intense currents would be requir ed, and both speed and certainty increased. It is not, however, altogether impossible that some intelligible signals may yet be received through the cable, as stated in my previous com munication. C. F.

IVe refer the sympathisers with Judge Douglas iu the South, and law-abiding citizens evervwli ’iv, to the follow ing article from the “Kansas Herald of Freedom” of the 2d iust.. “Toe Trek Position'.—Senator Dougin*, in our opinion, expresses the true mode tor the people of the Territories to meet the Dred Scott de cision He said on the 24th of August last, in a public speech: "In my opinion, the people of a Territory can by lawful means exclude slavery before it comes in as a slave State. Whatever the Supreme Court may decide as to the abstract question of w hello r slav- erj* may go iu under the constitution or not, the people oi' a Territory have the lawful means to ad mit or exclude slavery. “Slavery cannot exist a day anywhere, unless supported bj' local police regulations.

It will do more: 1twill throw pains and penalties around the institution; it will give, to the negro the right to defend his person from assaults upon him by his master; it will, in short, make hun a freeman, and that without provision or re compense! The underground rail road will be throw n upon the surface. Those holding slave property in Kansas are urged to consider this as for it will surely be rea- pendent of each other.

It is supposed the sprig or branch of a tree accidentally fell into the crevice in the rock, which afterwards by the action of the frost closed up, and in course of time the fresh green bough became petrified into solid rock.

TO THE MSMBERS OF THE LEGISLATURE The actual resistance of the fault appears to he at least equal to ten miles of the cable but is most probably greater. Taking it at its lowest resistance, viz., 10 miles and assuming that Newfoundland is only using 1811 ceils of Daniels battery, the strongest current received thence during my stay was only 1 24 part of the force that it should be were there but this one fault. When it, however, is borne in mind that ou the other side they are probably using more power and also that the detect first alluded to probably offers more resistance than that assumed viz.,T<) miles it is evident that there is another and more distant fault, the approxi mate locality of which 1 could not pretend to es timate at this end without being able to speak to Newfoundland. From authentic data sliowu to me at Valentia I am of opinion that there was a fault on board the Agamemon. before the cable was submerged at a distance of about 563 miles from one end and 640 from the other. He here enters into elaborate staterm-nts and calculations, of no interest to the public reader: The inference by rough calculation, t'nerefoie is that there was a fault offering a resistance equal to 1,001) or 1,209 miles of cable situated at a dis tance of about 56)1 miles from one cad of the 1,290- mile coil on board the Agamemon Tins, however, cannot be the fault first alluded to, situated at about 270 miles from Valentia, but may have been the oue which caused such alarm when the ships were 500 miles from Ireland, and when the signals ceased altogether and never cer tainly recovered. It is not at all improbable that the powerful cur rents from the large induction coils have impaired the insulation, and that had more moderate power been used the cable would still have been capable of transmitting messages. To satisfy rnj’self on this point I attached to the cabie a piece of gutta percba-covered wire, having •eds, by about one- first made a slight incision iu the gutta pcicha to iet tho water reach the wire, the wire was bent so as to close up the defect.

The opponents of the constitution and the law are now changing front, and seem determined to abol ish slavery through ti e agency of the territorial legislature, and in the manner suggested by Judge Douglas. They are no longer anxious for imme diate admission into the Union, as will be seen by the following, on the subject of the organization of a State government, which we extract from the sanic paper: “This cannot he in less than a year and a quar ter from this time It would be impossible to pro vide fora new convention, cnlljthut body together, frame a new constitution, and present it to Con gress, and get it ratified hy that bndjq after hav ing been ratified by the people of Kansas, between the meeting of the territoritial legislature in Jan uary next, and the adjournment of Congress on the Ith of March following, in two months from the convening ot the legislature in January, to the meeting of the next Congress in December, (being eleven months,) in which provide for and make a new constitution. There being ample time, we l shall expect to see a good constitution framed.— iluring ail that time the object of the free-Siate j partj' has not ‘been achieved,” and he who is a j member of that party is guilty of treason to it who j attempts to overthrow it.” It is marvellous how quickly the seeds of disloy- ; alty to the constitution germinates and takes root j in the soil of “republicanism.” Judge Douglas’s | incendiary fires have tairly illuminated the old j Topeka councils, and we are promised a great deal 1 of hard work to extinguish tln m.

Sale of the State Rond.—Tiie Grand Jury of Cobb county, (panelsof both weeks) protest against the sale of the State Road, but favor the appropriation of the uet proceeding to educational purposes. We would suggest as good polity for the State, that as long as the Road pays into the Treasury, as it is doing now, with the prospects ahead of i f s paying still more into the Treasury, it would be well enough to keep it.
