Issuing from the wrist is that wonderful or gan. the human hand- “In a French book intended," says Sir Charles Bell, “to teach young people philosophy, the pupil asks why the fingers are not of equal length ? The mas ter makes the scholar grasp a ball of ivory, to show him that the points of the fingers are then equal! It would have been better had he closed tho fingers upon the palm, and then have asked whether cr not they corresponded. This difference in the length of the fingers serves a thousand purposes, as in holding a rod, a switch, a sword, a hammer, a pen, pen cil, or engraving tool, in all which, a secure hold and freedom of motion are admirably combined." On the length, strength, and perfectly free movements of tho thumb de pends, moreover, the power of the human hand. To tho thumb indeed, bas been given a special name (Pollux, from a Latin verb meaning, to be able, strong, mighty,) because of its strength: a strength that is necessary to the power of the hand, being equal to that of all the.fingers. Without the fleshy ball of the thumb the power of the fingers would be of no avail, and accordingly the large ball formed by the muscles of the thumb is the special mark of the human hand, and particu larly that of a clever workman. The loss of the thumb almost amounts to the loss of the hand. Conscripts, unwilling to serve in the army of France, have been known to dieablo themselves effectually by cutting off the thumb of the right hand. The loss of both thumbs would reduce a man to a miserable depen dence. Nor should we overlook another pe culiarity. Were the tips of the fingers and the thumbs bony instead of being covered with flesh, many things we readily do would be ab solutely impossible. We now can take up what is small, soft, and round, as a millet seed, or even a particle of human hair. So exquisitely preheusiblc are the human fingers. The nails are often of special service; perhaps always in works of art which require nicety of execution. Their substance is just what is needed; they are easily kept at the precise length which answers every purpose; had they been placed on the tips of the fingers there would have been a loss of power, but their po sition ensures their highest efficiency. An in terchange of power for velocity which takes place in tbo arm adapts the hand aud fingers to a thousand arts, requiring quick or .live motions. In setting up the type of this page, there have been movements on the part of the compositor of surprising rapidity to any ordi nary observer, aud the execution of perform ers on the pianoforte, as well as on many wind instruments, is often astonishing; these arc among many instances of the advantage gain ed by this sacrifice of force to velocity of move ment.—Cassell's Popular Natural History. -•Tii the North tell us of no change A-of the Vung-tsxe-Kiang.

Tlie Edinburg Witness gives thc subjoined account of a very remarkable prayer meeting, probably the largest held since the dawn of the Christian era. We presume that the num bers are somewhat exaggerated, as other pa pers do not place them higher than from twen ty to thirty thousand. “A great union prayer-meeting, iu connec tion with the present remarkable movement, was held in the open air, in Belfast, Ireland, on Wednesday forenoon, at halfpast eleven o’clock. In order to accommodate all parties, thc use of the spacious grounds of tlie Boyal Botanic Gardens was obtained for bolding the meeting; as it was well known that many per sons from thc surrounding country were desir ous to be present, special trains of uncommon length were run by thc different railway com panies. Some idea of the interest felt may be imagined when we state that it is computed that no fewer than fifteen thousand individuals arrived in Belfast, and that from thirty-five to forty thousand pet sons in all were present at thc services. The leading streets of the town presented, during midday, a most remarkable aspect, particularly after thc arrival of trains. The footways were literally thronged with well-dressed and respectable looking people from the country—not passing along with thc negligent nnd easy-going air of pleasure-seek ing excursionists, but staid and solemn in de meanor—the younger as well as the elder; and the majority with Bibles or liymn-boooks in their linnds, as if proceeding to Sabbath services. On they passed towards the place of meeting, passed the glittering rows of gor geous shops, and through the fashionable thor oughfares. Thus the living stream—such a stream as was never before witnessed in Bel fast—poured onward for at least two hours along both sides of the streets. “The scene in the garden grounds is said by the Banner of Ulster to have been one of the most striking, as well as impressive and animating, ever witnessed in the province..— The whole space within view from any point was as closely packed as it was well possible for it (o be. Even the branches of the trees were taken advantage of by numbers of thc junior members of the audience, as the most suitable situations for seeing and hearing; and there, while the sounds of praise were rising from the multitude below, these young wor shippers were heard joining in the song of thanksgiving. Nothing of holiday levity, nothing of thc thoughtless mirth of youth, was manifest among these; their attention was as marked, and their conduct as well ordered, as that of any persons in tho vast assemblage.— Both as regarded its magnitude, and tho deep solemnity and earnest spirit that pervaded it. the meeting is said to have recalled vividly the historic days and scenes of the signing of the •Solemn League and Covenant/ “The Rev. John Johnson, of Tulhlish, Mod erator of the General Assembly of the Irish Presbyterian Church, presided, and he was supported by tho ministers of the different Protestant denominations in and around Bel fast. After prayer, the Chairman read a chap ter front the Iloly Scriptures, nnd then gave out the JOOdth Psalm; and never^before in Belfast, did so rAltny voices unite in such hear ty accord in singing this favorite song of Zion. Scarcely had the first note been raised on the platform, when it was caught tip by the im mense assemblage, the majority of the voices combining in surprising and unexpected har mony ; and, as each stanza closed, the dying away of the cadence in the far distance of the throng, had an effect at once solemn and thril ling. Short addresses were delivered by min isters and converts ; and also by Mr. William Dickson of Edinburgh and Mr. Peter Drum mond of .Sterling. Prayers were also offered up, and verses from hymns sung. As it was impossible for the speakers on the central plat form to make themselves heard by the whole of the vast multitude, clergymen and others scattered themselves among them, each form ing thc centre of a large congregation which iinmediatcly gathered around, joining in de votional exercises. “At one time there was no less than twenty of these snbordinate meetings, numbering from five hundred to one thousand each.— Every here and there throughout the immense multitude, while the hymn or rising on high/ persons were bemg struck down under a sense of deep and overpowering conviction of sin. Inside of some of these ctr cles there could not have been fewer than twenty persons, chiefly females, apparently under the influence of spiritual vmiatiou, at Ss^mo moment; some of them.prostrate up- i d f p r.™l"«d «tS; »“.w. io y j piteously for mercy . an their physi ter a word, so thorougmy of cal faculties in abeyance.

"At the clese of the general meeting, one of the ministers of the town, who has moved a great deal among the juvenile population, was surrounded by a large assemblage of boys, who untimately formed themselves into a pro cession, and marched into town, singing, •O! that will be joyful. Many of these children evidently belonged to the lowest classes of society. A portion of the procession, which divided from the rest, on arriving at the Pound district, ceased to sing till they had passed its dangerous precincts, and resumed their song when they passed in to Townscud street. The immense concourse of people left the gardens in the most orderly manner—the majority of them evidently im pressed with the conviction that it was 'good for them to have been there.’ A few manufac tories and other places of bnsines were closed for the day, in order to allow the workers to join in the above services. Old Virginia. An Illinois Sucker took a great dislike to a foolish young Virginian who was a fellow pas senger with him on one of the Mississippi steamboats. I was on the boat (said Beacon Doolittle,) and saw the whole affair. The Vir ginian was continually combiug his hair, brushing his clothes, or dusting his boots—to all which movements the Sucker took excep tions, as being what is termed, “a leetle too darned nice, by half." He finally drew np his chair beside the Virginian and began: “Whar might you be from, stranger ?" “I am from Virginia, sir," politely answer ed the gent. “From old Varginny, I s’pose?” says the Sucker. “Yes, sir, old Virginia," was the reply. “You are pooty high up in thc pictures thar, I suppose ?” 1 don’t know what you mean by that re mark. sir.” Oh, nutbin," says the Sncker, “ but that you are desp’rate rich, and have been brought up right nice." “If the information will gratify you, in any way,’’ says the gent patronizingly, smoothing down his hair, “I belong to one of the first families." "Oh, in course.’’ answered the Sucker.— Well, stranger, bein’ as you belong to the furst. I'll just give you two of the fattest shoats iu all Illinois ef you'll only find me a feller that belongs to one of the second Virginny families." "Yon want to quarrel with me, sir.” says the Virginian. “No, stranger, not an atom,” answered the Sucker, “but I never seed one of the secoud family, and I’d gin sutbin to get sight at one of ’em. I know you are oneof the furst, cause you look just like John Randolph.” This mollified the Virginian—thc bint of a resemblance to the statesman was flattering to his feelings and he accordingly acknowledged relationship to thc orator. “He. you know, descended from the Ingin gal, Pocahontas.” "You are right, sir,” auswered the other. “Well, stranger,” said the sucker, “do you know thar is anuther queer thing allys puz zles me, and it’s this—1 never seed a Virgin- nyan that didn't claim to be either descended from an Ingin, John Randolph, or a nigger." We need not add that the Sucker rolled off his chair— suddenly 1 They were separated until the Sucker got off at the landing near his home. As he stepped ashore, he caught sight of thc Virginian on thc upper deck, and hail ed him at once with: "I say, old Virginny, remember—two fat shoats for the first feller y on find belonging to the second Virginny family!’’ ••• — Wonder* of the Alixslssipiii. Thc difference of level between high and low-water mark at Cairo is fifty feet. The width and depth of the river from Cairo and Memphis to New Orleans is not materially in creased, yet immense additions are made to the quantity of water in the channel by large streams from both the eastern and western sides of the Mississippi. Thc question natu rally arises, what becomes of this vast added volume of water 1 It certainly never reaches New Orleans, and as certainly does not evap orate ; and of course it is not confined to the channel of the river, for it would raise far a- bove the entire region south of us. If a well is sunk anywhere in the Arkansas bottom, water is found as soon as the water- level of the Mississippi is reached. When the Mississippi goes down the water sinks accor dingly in the well. Tho owner of a saw-mill, some twenty miles from the Mississippi, in Arkansas, dug a well to supply tlie boilers of his engine, during the late flood. When the waters reaeded. bis well went dpwn, till his hose would no longer reach the water, and finally his well was dry. lie dug a ditch to an adjacent lake to let water into his well; the lake was drained, and the well was dry again, having literally drank ten acres of wa ter in less than a week. The inference is, that the whole valley of thc Mississippi, from its banks to the highlands on cither side, rests on a porous substratum which absorbs thc re dundant waters, and thus prevents that de gree ol accumulation which would long since have swept New Orleans into the Golf but for this provision of nature, to which alone her safety is attributable. In fact, if the alluvial bottoms of the Mis sissippi were like the shores of the Ohio, the vast plain from Cairo to New Orleans would to-day be part and parcel of the Gulf of Mex ico, aud the whole valley a fresh-water arm of the sea. Were the geological character of the valley different, the construction of levees, confining the water of thc Mississippi to its channel, would cause*the rise in the river to become so great at the South that there no sufficient levees could be built. The current would be stronger and accumulation of water greater as the levees are extended north of us. Such results were reasonably enough^ antic ipated ; but the water, instead of breaking the levees, permeates the porous soil, and the over flow is really beneath the surface of the swamps. Such, it seems to us* are tlie wise provisions of natural laws for the safety and ultimate reclamation of the rich country south of us. We believe that the levee system will be successful, and that the object of its adop tion will be attained. Tho porousness of the material used in making them has caused most if not all of the crevasses. Men may deem it a superhuman task to wall in the Missisippi from Cairo to New Orleans, but our levees are the work of pigmies, when contrasted with the dykes of Holland. The floodtide of the Mis sissippi is but a ripple on the surface of a glas sy pool, compared with the ocean billows that dash against tb s artificial shores of Holland. The country to be reclaimed by our levees— all of which will not for fifty years cost the people as much as those of the Dutch when originally built—would; make ons hundred such kingdoms as that over which a Bonaparte onco wielded the sceptre^-MempAis Ava lanche. ceeding to Annapolis, and lying for a short time off the Naval School. The result was in every respect eminently satisfactory. A uni form speed of fifteen miles an hour, carefully timed by the buoys, was attained with thirty- six revolutions per minute* the boilers work- ing to about one-third of their capacity; and it bein'’-, even to the inexpert in these matters, apparent that they were playing with their work. As the experiment was mainly direct ed to the question of fuel, under certan pircum- stances, no effort was made looking to speed alone, but quite enough was done to remove all doubt as to the ultimate and triumphant suc cess of the principles involved in thc propeller, and the power required to attaiu the maximum of speed in this new form of naval architecture. The results in a sea way are yet, of course, to be tested.—Baltimore American, 1st. Non-Intervention. In the Presidential contest of 185U the car dinal principal with the Democratic party, and with the South, was non-intervention in the matter of slavery in tlie territories. On thc occasion of the memorable proceedings of Governor Walker In connection with the adop tion of a constitution by the people of Kansas, non-intervention was the loud and universal Cry at the South. Tho same sacred princi ple was invoked and appealed to by tlie south ern democracy in the controversy on the ad mission of Kansas under the Lecompton con stitution, as interdicting Congress from re jecting that constitution, because of its non submission to tlie people by their own author ised convention. Non-intervention has been the settled doctrine of the Democratic party, and of the South, ever since its establishment in the Kansas Nebraska act up to the present time. The southern democracy stands solemn ly committed to this prjnciplc, in their sup port of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, and of the Cincinnati platform which adopted the princi ple of that measure. The principle as established iu the Kansas Nebraska Act was, that the destinies of slave ry in thc territories should depend upon the will of the people thereof, limited only by such restraints as should be imposed by the decision of the Supreme Court of tlie United States as to the constitutionality of their acts. The southern representation in Congress unan imously gave their assent to this provision and principle, declaring that it was all the South wanted. They regarded the rights of the South in the territories as fully guaran teed, when the actiou of the territorial legis lature in regard to slavery was subject to re vision and corrccton by the Supreme Court They were satisfied that the Supreme Court would bold that the territorial legislature had no power to protect slavery from being estab lished in the territories. With that check up on territorial legislation against slavery, they considered that the rights of tlie South were sufficiently secured; aud hence they agreed upon the principle that CoDgress would not intervene or interfere pro or con in thc matter of slavery in the territories. This principle of non-intervention thus unanimously assented to by the democratic representatives of the Sonth in Congress, was affirmed and ratified by the southern people in the Presidential election of ’5ti. The south ern democracy, as we have said, stands sol emnly pledged to this principle, the more es pecially since thc anticipated decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, as iu the Dred Scott case, lias applied the limits which restrain the territorial legislatures iu prevent ing the introduction of slaves. it is proposed now by certain politicians at the South to re cede from this principle, aud to make an is sue that Congress shall intervene with its leg islation iu behalf of slavery iu the Territories. The proposition is one fraught only with mis chief to the interests of the South. It is not only a violent aud wanton departure from the common policy plighted by the Southern de mocracy with their brethren of the North, but its adoption would inevitably disorganize the democratic party and insure the triumph and ascendeucy of thc black republicans, thus bringiug upon the South the greatest disaster that could befall her. When we already have such effectual security for our rights iu the territories as is afforded by the Dred Scott decision coupled with the policy of non-inter vention, shall we not remain contented with that, rather than by demanding more lose what we have, aud consign ourselves and our rights aud interests to the hostile rule of black republicanism? We do not counsel unwor thy submission to wrong, when we advise that the South shall adhere to n policy to which she gave )><w free consent and approval.—jV<>- hite Begister.

At The process consists simply in immersing the timbers in a solution of bi-chloride of mer cury during six days, and drying them care fully under sheds for two weeks longer. To do this cheaply, I propose to have the cross-ties sawed iu one of the mills along the line of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, and to build at the place of delivery at the railroad two tanks capable of containing 1200 pieces each, which would enable the process to be completed in the course of three months— amply fast enough for any track-laying. I have arranged with Mr. L. J. Fleming, the chief 1 r-L- >> • •• * •• road use. Mr. Fleming has agreed to buy them at the cost of the lumber employed in their con struction ; so that the cost of kyanizing will be reduced to merely the cost of the salt, the framing of the tanks, and the wages of the three men attending the process. This is estimated to amount to about six cents per cross-tie, or $120 per mile, giving a saving of $34 over the use of heart pine lumber.

This vessel made another experimental trip down the Bay on Saturday last, with tlie hap piest results. Every trip yet made hat been ii pursuance of a plan laid down in the Login ning, looking to the accurate ascertainment of all the points involved in the novel priici- ple's in course of development, with a view to arriving, not at merely satisfactory results, but at the very best results attainable under any possible state of circumstances. The form of the vessel, the pitch of the screw, the number of the blades, their size and propor tions, the application of steam, tho quantity of fuel, thc number of revolutions, have been all, in their turn, experimented on; sometimes iving more favorablo results, sometimesmere- ■» indicating tbe direction in which improve ment was to be looked for.

Sambo and Gidding's daugh ter may sit there side by side, with none to make them qfraiiL Tlie number of pupils to this school wits really remarkable. It was found ed in 1834, under thc direction of the Evangel' cal Congregationalists—what they are we cannot say, and haven’t time to find out—and in 1853-4 it was attended by 1,337 students, and in 1854-5 by 1,118. By referring to the American Alma nac (Boston) for 1859, we find tliat the students arc now 110, which shows a considerable fall ing off. This may be due to the extraordinary fanaticism which reigns undisturbed within the Oberlin section of Ohio. Even a black man ought to shun such a place—and for him it pro fesses to be better than any other place in all the world. A correspondent ofa Cincinnati pa per gives thc following amusing account of its characteristics, and we give this prelace as an introduction to the extract: A' place of three thousand inhabitants, where is located the celebrated Oberlin University, of which all the world knows something. The complexion of Oberlin is black and blue—eith cr sliado predominating as the light shines up on it. Au air of scholastic egotism, combined with fierce and vindictive fanaticism, bangs a- bout the place completely saturating all who live in it. The inhabitants live upon tlie slave ry question. It is their meat and drink. They arc literally soaked in it. They scorn aud repudiate the defensive position of conserva tive Republicanism, and assume the aggres sive with an abiding faith in their final triumph. From tbeir entrenched position in the north of Ohio, they fire their big guns incessantly, not even waiting for the metal to cool, at the "sum of all villanies” in Georgia and South Carolina. A long range, it is true, but. like the fly on the bull’s horn, they fondly imag ine they are the cause of all the dust kicked up in the past few years. The Oberlin phi losophers are eminently pugnacious. In pie ty, philantbrophy or politics, they would rath er force a point than gain it peaceably. It is useless to reason with them. Clad in a trip- pie coat of fanatic bigotry, their brains ad dled with crude, indigestible theories for com pelling mankind to reform their abuses, they are impervious alike to the shafts of ridicule and the sword of truth. Xnthing so much de lights your Oberlin philosopher as to entrap ati unsuspecting strauger into an argument. Like the Milesian gentleman at the fair of Don- nybrook, who was “spiling" for a fight, the shillelah of an Obcrlinite is describing a per petual circle of flourishes, while he entreats yon to tread on tne tail of his coat A large number of students, male and fe male—probably 700 or 800—are in attend ance at the University. The course of study thorough," and calculated to so model an ordinary female intellelleet as to totally nnfit it for the practical duties of life. Lucy Stone, Antoinette Brown and others of the strong- minded “sisters,” graduated at this institu tion. A few years ago the sages of Oberlin resolv ed they would discontinue the use of sugar and thus cut off the revenue of the slave ow ners ; they did so, and for a time drank their bobea and hyson skin unsweetened, eschewed asked a Wall street broker of a friend from I ii 4 !°f™«! e ,f tOST ATTRACTIVE | WORKS ‘OF FICTION.- r ii i • -. c . • WATERING PLACES in the country, lisve, since hong Island.
