ment of Webster's Dictionaries in our columns to-day. The unabridged is lo well known to need nnv ••x'rndcd notice Jn the language of the Xa:ional Iiitclligt-ncer: It is the Dictiunaiy of nl! Dictionaries of the English language, full and precise, and is the book of all others essential to all pro'essional men, nil men of science, all printers, and indeed, cverv man who understands the force of word*, and the importaace of an accurate and perfect knowledge of the vehicle of his own ideas and of the thoughts of others.

The academic is the most full and convenient hand book for schools, academies, offices, «fec. that we have ever seen.

Webster's unabridged should be on every teacher's table in every school room in the Slate, ready at all times for reference. And no pupil, after becoming able to read with any degree of facility, should be without some one of the abridgements and the ••teacher should see to it, that every pupil, not only has a copy of his own, but that he shall know, also, how to use it. There has been too much neglect on this point, and too groat scarcity of dictionaries in the school room the consequence of which has been, that pupils pass through school without learning to distinguish the shades of meaning in different connections, and without acquiring even a tolerable command of the u«c of words.

The above Dictionaries arc for sale by II. Pursel fc Hro.

CfclT Every body recollects how Fry denied last winter the existence of any secret political Society. Notwithstanding he lied willfully and knowingly he hesitated not to sprufane the holy sanctuary of the Lord, poluting iti« altar with his foul presence and partaking of the sacrament. Every one who knew his wicked and abandoned disregard of truth and morals were shocked •at such irreverent and blasphemous mockery perpetrated by a wretch that defied his

Ciod and swore with uplifted hand to disobey and violate the ninth commandment.— Having proven him a iiar repeatedly one 'would think that he would desist from a practice "so ruinous to individual respectability" and endeavor to acquire and gain the confidence of at least a dog. We have sometimes doubted his sanity, unwilling to believe that st being wearing the image of immortal Deity could be so far steeped in degradation and beastly depravity.— 'Were he indeed as he seems likely to be a •candidate for the Lunatic Asylum he would a«rtaiuly be refused admission. Ilis presence would corrupt and demoralize the inmates, and turn a benevolent asylum where morals and purity prevail to a pandemonium rivaling hell.it«elf. We sec no possibility of- reformation in him. The- incarnate spirit of Satan himself dwells in his heart and not until some miracle liken to the casting of devils can we hope for a chance.

But, if ever a war should take place between England and the United States, we arc persuaded that the provocation will not come from the other side. The first warlike demonstration will be made by us, for England cannot Afford to be at war with the United States her national existence would be imperiled .by..such an event.. -She lives by her workshops alone the manufacturing interests pay the interest on her debt, supply her with the sinews of war, arid are the chief source of her regal splendors.— But a war with this country would fit once shut up the most valuable of her manufactories, by cutting off the supply of raw material which is necessary to keep them in motion it would deprive her of her best market, and cut off the source on which she relies for food for her operators it would cancel a debt, the loss of which would bankrupt her wealthiest merchants it would place her colonies in danger, encourage them to revolt, and weaken her in all her extremities, while it would cripple her at home. In her war with Russia she has been compelled to borrow troops wherever she could find them, and our own ships have been of material service to her trans--porting her armies and military stores yet she has not been compelled to guard one of her ports against the enemy, or to take any steps toward protecting her colonies,

But in case of a war with this country, she would require a larger army than she has yet been able to send to the- ©pwnea to

She would have the aid of France, perhaps but France could as ill afford to try the experiment of a war with us as England in fact we are as important a market to France as to England she, too, depends upon us for the raw material of her manufactories, as well a market for her superfluities, and she could as ill afford to do without our gold and cotton as England. Our losses in a war with these great. European powers would, at first, be large, but they would not be ruinous we should take more than we should lose in the long run, and we should not be weakened as a nation by being compelled to depend upon our own internal resources, the extent of which we have hardly begun to appreciate. We can very well afford to give up French silks, French wines, and all the other luxurious proJucts of French skill and genius for which we pay so large an annual tribute to the Gallic people now there is not, in truth, an article which we import from France whieh we cannot produce at home, or else very comfortably dispense with altogether. And we may say the same of England.

A war with those countries, then, would not entail upon us any of the calamities which it would bring upon themselves, for it would tend to consolidate us as a people, would heal up our petty sectional disputes and lead to a development of our internal resources which would raise us higher among the nations of the earth than centuries of such peaceful intercourse as we now enjoy with Europe would do.

tl.KER, TIIE FILLIBUSTER. The New York Timet gives the following sketch of Walker, who has so successfully invaded Nicaragua:

that he has the power and influence of complete control over them, and that, in any event, he will sacrifice his own life sooner than see his followers, as a body, bring odium on the cause or defeat the purposes which he has (unwisely it may be) asserted

Mr. Walker is a native of Tennessee,— Ilis education is liberal to an extreme. Few young men, we understand, enjoyed finer advantages in that respect, than he did on coming to manhood. That he has not properly improved or legitimately directed them in liis subsequent career on the Pacific, is no fault of his personal habits, his lack of firmnesss, or want of political information. He is a lawyer by profession, and had editorial experience at the press. His devotion to the democratic principles of free government is extreme. On this point, faulty, if you please, he has been stubborn and persevering, rather than enthusiastic. We understand, indeed, that enthusiasm, in the popular sense, is no part of his disposition. He is, or was, when he left the Atlantic States, and we have since heard nothing to the contrary, of a steady, sober habit, remarkably quiet in personal' intercourse, of high moral courage and indomitable will. While nothing could have given his family, friends and acquaintances at home more surprise than the first news of his turning filibuster in Lower California, there is not one of them who has since! pantalets adorning the ankles, and a Legdoubted his braverv, or questioned his per- jliorn hat. set jauntily upon the head, being severance in execution of a settled political in fact a modification of the Illoomer cospurpose.

•]. THE FATE OF FUSICMT. A Paiij' that is|Uorn ©^iniquity in a dkysW full ofiifQUble. ^Ve hs|tfe not the heart to exult very much over the drooping, damaged,.limping condition in which the "republican" party comes out of the New York and Massachusetts, contests.— But a short time ago it was a proud and courageous party, with high comb and magnificent plumage, eager for battle and confident of victory now it is a prostrate party/'all. bloody and crpst-fallen -its^ail-feitliF er$ trailing tlie dust. A year since it carried every northern State in which tl.ere was an election. This year .it- has carried but Xwo—-Qhio and Vermont.^ Jn the second period'of.rits existence it begins to decline, arid apparently its fall will be rapid as was its rise. Certainly it .has reached tlie apex of its fortune's. Certainly its late misfortunes are fatal to its future prosperity. Containing no element of permanency —composed of incongruous materials—a banded horde of ambitious gamesters, seeking by a fusion of the discontented and the lawless, the fanatical and designing, to seize upon power the first .serious repulse of-its forces is pregnant with disaster. Its legions, once scattered, cannot he again ef? fectively marshalled. Defeated in its strongholds—Seward rejected by New York, and the who]e infamous crew repudiated by Massachusetts—the days of mock republicanism are numbered.

But much as we rejoice at the downfall of sectionalism in the two States, we lament that the victory is not with the democrac}*. 'Americanism'—in somewhat modified form as regards religious and political proscription, and divested of abolitionism, carries the day. At least such is the result in Massachusetts, and at the present writing

party might have achieved a tremendous triumph in the latter State, and our belief is that the event of the election will hasten a union which will exhilerate the whole democracy of the country. In this respect we exult and we may exult that so far as "Americanism" in New York is anti Sewardism a plurality of the people have chosen the lesser of the two evils. Upon this alternative. thousands doubtless acted, for of course know-nothingism has no such real strength as the vote for its ticket indicates. The prevailing disposition to sustain the successful ticket was, we imagine, designed as a sort of physic, administered allopathically lo a diseased patient whose healthy condition is that of democratic allegiance. The phase of "Americanism" as it is revealed is manifestly a transition state, a purgatory—through which New York is passing to the democratic fold. All that is now necessary to place her high upon the rock of correct principles is democratic harmony. Let there be that, and neither such knownothingism as now vaults into power, or such as elected Mr. Seward to tlie United Slates Senate last whiter, can stand in the way of New York giving her electoral vote to the democratic candidate for the next Presidency.

In Massachusetts the "republican" overthrow is, if possible, more humiliating than in New York. There the secret order was a component of the fusion organization.— When, however, Gov. Gardner would not remove Judge Loring, and refused his assent to the "personal liberty bill," and when the Wilsons and Sumners and Rockwells thought they

110

longer needed dark-

lantern aid, they threw overboard Governor Gardner and abjured know-nothingism.— The event is that know-nothingism has thrown them overboard. The plague they invented lias returned to torment them Their chicken has come home to roost.— The triumphant know-nothings of Massachusetts, like those of New York, are in antagonism with the "republican" party.— In both States Sewardism is alike vanquished.

Mr. SeWard staked immensely on these elections, and has lost. Ilis entire political fortune was involved, and is gone. He cast his whole personal influence into the scale, but it would not avail. His own State repudiates him Massachusetts deserts him Ohio prefers another Vermontonly adheres to him. Sic trunsit gloria mundi. ..

THE KM) OF A KNOW NOTHING.S The democracy of Cass county, Texas, held a meeting on the 24th ult., and appointed delegates to the State Convention. The following resolution was adopted:

Resolved, That Gen. Sam Houston, in his capacity as United States Senator, has violated the confidence reposed in him by his constituents, and that, in view of the almost unanimous wishes of the people, lie ought to resign his scat, so that they might elect a man who would become the exponent of their principles and the defender of their rights.

NAYLT ATINU THE AIR.

We have received from Mr. Samuel Nowlan a communication, too long for us to publish .entire, in which he propounds a new theory of .ferial navigation. He believes vhat since the attraction of the earth diminishes as we ascend from its surface, it will be fonnd practicable by rising in a balloon to the height of twenty thousand to twen-ty-five thousand feet, to remain comparatively stationary while the globe beneath revolves. Indeed, Mr. Nowlan aticipates

So far as we have observed, the mock thunders of,the Times have excited nd higher emotion than that of pleasant derision no deeper feeling than that of-pitying contempt. Several of the leading papers in London and Liverpool have shown an anxious alacrity to remove any mischievous impressions which the puerile petulence of the Times may produce, and have repeatedly stated that there is no confidence or connection between that journal and the British government.-1 ivuv

These propositions and others equally novel Mr. Nowlan reasons out with so much ingenuity that we trust he may find some appropriate means of bringing his speculations before the public.— X. Tribune, 12th.

SIMMER OIARRKCEA OF IN%, FA NTS. Dr. Dixon, the weli-known editor of The Scalpel, has published an arlicle on the above subject in the N. Y. Tribune, the substance of which we append, b( cause we consider the advice it embodies of the utmost importance:

The dependence of the disease upon a high degree of atmospheric temperature, is proved by the fact that its prevalence is always in proportion to the heat of the Summer the disease always increasing and becoming more fatal with tlie ri^e of the tliermonieter, and declining with the cool weather in Autumn. When we com-ider tliaL it only exists under circumstances of great poverty and wretchedness, or carelessness in the diet of the child, and that even this is a very rema:kable exception as a cause in the country to its extraordinary preva-

not uw crieS) ]t not

proof that

all its existing causes, viz: and iirst in or-

der, heat of weather then the filthy exhalations of the city and last, improper diet and want of air in close chambers.

These two latter causes operate in low life in the country, where close rooms and feather beds in cradles, and coarse nourishment, such as pap made of bad and sourj bread, itc., are common nnd in such plaees we have to notice the rare exceptions of its existence out of the city whatever mode of treatment the necessities of poverty and our own humanity may induce us to adopt, we consider our assertion perfectly justifiable and that we are in duty bonnd to give the parent the absolute assurance that, whenever possible, every effort, however well directed by experience and science, should, if unsuccessful for a very few days, give way to the advice that the child should be taken (however ill at the time) into the country. Vve have repeatedly1 known these 'little creatures to recover from an almost dying state—when they were indeed so low that no man could say they would survive another day by sending them on a pillow to the delightful village ol Fort L-e—a place chosen by us from a life-long know ledge of its surpas.-ing healthfulness and its freedom from miasmatic exhalation.
