The lluiunii Hand.
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.

EK MEETING.
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-

scanty livelihood by hawking ballads through
the streets; and the tattered garments in which
he as well as his companions were arrayed on
Wednesday, showed that, in that respect,
their prospects in life had not much improved.
"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

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<>-

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-

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

A remarkable Town
Oberlin (Ohio) has a grand college, which
educates males nnd females, and makes no <lis
tinetion of color. 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

A “wee bit of a boy” astonished his mother
a few days since. She had occasion to chas

very profoundly. At length he spoke out
thus:
“’Muzzer, 1 wish pa’d get anuzzer housekeep
