iloe.s not hesitate to declare that on tiie next day he
guided Dr. Mitchell to thai vi-ry point which all
now agree is the highest pinnacle. This w;tne>s
is Mr. William Wilson, a man of intelli;.'eiiee an 1
integrity, and of forty years’ intimate aecjuaint-
anee with the peaks and valleys '>t the Black

was Adoniram Allen. He has been dead ab"ut
ten vears; but it is weli known that his testim"ny
while living entirely corroborated .'Ir. WilsonV.

i'^nie time after the visit of IS:;."), Dr. Mitcheil
thought for ome reason, now not known, that his
vi.'.it in l';;.^ had not furnished sufficiently reli
able r' suits. So after procuring a peculiar Ba
rometer from I'aris, he drteruiined to vi*-it Mr.
.^litehell HiTuin, and secure ai'.othfr elevation for
that hiL'hest peak. The differene*; between this
and that of 1 "■».'> is only ot> feet in 'I'his
'iiiall ditTerence might result from ajiplying the
■bs. rvations by tin: .'ame instrument to two dif
ferent formul.'i', or from applying the same form
al.. t.> tht> observations of tv,ditl'erent in>truments,
or from using the same instrument ami the same
lovniula on two dilb'rent days. i his number
it wdi b(r (ibs rved is larger tlian anv in
the list below oxeept the tirst whieh has been al
ready dispose(l o{. '1 111- results of these two visits
show that the detirminations of cither are amply
sufficient to establish Dr. Mitchell’s claim to be
the di.scoverer and iiitrodu(*er to the scientific
world of the highest mountain in tiio rniretl
States east of the llocky .^lountains.
The .second correction that 1 would make in
the d'seriptiou below, concerns the statement
that Mv .^litehell is (i.tT** f*et high. Dr. Mit-
ehells number f.ir tho height he visited iu I''-'!')
is ^> \ i*>, jin,t il'/ there was no considerable err*r
in the elevation assigned to Morganton. The li.
K >urvey has revealed in the estimate of this
elevation ;in error oftVet. So then, if Dr,
-Mitcheh s mea'urement of 1^;;-, in>r« referred
to, thiv ijiiinher 'hould b.' ;70". But even th-. n
thi' ho.., ..,1 ji,^. wrong Mt. Mitch(-ll. Two
*- le peaks ot the Black .^lountaip are now
called Mt. Mitchell The highe.st peak has been
so called for the la.st twenty-two years by tin-
settlers on Caney ami Toe rivers, in Yaneoy coun
ty, and by all who have visited it under their
.niidance. This is the peak to which IV. Mit
chell always intended to a.ssign 5170, an I it is
the “Oliugman’s Pe-.ik” of the list below, 'i he
other Mt. Mitchell is some three or tour miles
farther south, towards Buncombe county. by
and when it giU that name I do not know. Dr.
.^litehell never felt himself especially honoreil by
the name in that place. If he ever visited and
measured its peak,—which he may have dune
during au interuiediate visit iu — he did
not expect by S!> doing to give out that hetliouglit

Syrup of tlit Chiiirxf iSui/ar Caiic. — A friend
has sent us u -am[i!e of the syrup of the Chinese
sutrar ean-, extracted by Mr. Albert Johnson, of
thi-; (,’ity. Tiie juice was extracted by a tem
porary mill made by Mr. Johnson for the purpo.se
an.l afterwards boiled down to .syrup. Mr. Johu-
s 'n’s process is to put in about three ounccs of
slacked lime, dissolved in water, to ev«ry twenty-
; tive gallons of the juice, and then boil down until
the proper thiekncsS is obtained, skimming off the
' impurities as they ari.se.
'1 he stalks yiel'l, it is stated, about half a pint
; ot juice each; ami it is fair to presume that the
juice will yield about tifteeu per cent of syrup or
; moiasses.

Tho ALOimemnon arrived this morning only,
having been engage^!, during the trip from Gret-n-
tically th* form and suitability of the machinery
to be u.sed f.tr paying out the cable.
To .NIr. C. T. Bright is committed the entire
control and responsibility of depositing in its
ocean bed this wondrous example of the united
P')wer of .science and inIustry.
j During the progress of the Agamemnon to the
Downs the mechanical appliances for regulating
i the delivery of the cable into the sea were kept
' continually in motion by the small engine on
board which is connected with them. The sheaves
and gearing worked with great facility and preci
sion, and so quiet that at a short distance from
them their motion could scarcely be heard,
i The strength of the girders—which carry the
. bearing of the entire apparatus, and which, to the
i eye of a person unskilled in the practical working
I of this desi.ri[»tion of machinery, may seem at
; iirst to be unduly ponderous—was found to con-
j tribute greatly to the easy motion and satisfactory
I .steadiness of this most important agent in the
! success of the undertakiug.
I 80 soon as the Agamemnon had pa.ssed the
j track of the Submarine Company’s cable between
! Dover aud Calais, in order to avoid the po.ssibility
of its being injured by the laying or hauling up
of another line at right angles to it, the experi-
I ments commenced. A LJ-inch shell was attach-
1 ed to the end of a spare coil of the Atlantic cable
I for the purpo.se of sinking it rapidly with a strain
I upon it to the bottom, and was then cast into the
j sea, drawing after it a sufficient quantity of slack
i to enable it to take hold of the ground and so set
j the machinery in motion.
I The paying out then commenced at the rate of
two, three, aud four knots an hour respectively.
The ship was then stopped and the cable was
j hauled up from the bottom of the sea with great
, the elegantly finished arch sp-;nning the walk ‘the becomes. The narrow streets of the
- ' " disagreeable village ot Pegli, the stjuahd people^
the beggars that hold up their withered han.is,
the eart worn crowds that pass you, bending under
■ their burdeus, as you return to the city of Genoa,
remind you that life is not so much a delightful
romance as a severe reality, and that, though
wealth here and there builds up splendid homes,
yet poverty and toil are still the lot of our race.
In Genoa and in Sardinia generally, however,
there is a brighter prospect for the m-asse& of the
people than in any other portion of Italy. There
is more liberty. They have a written constitution,
a free press, and free debate. Above all, the^y
have religious liberty, and the Bible—God’s
great fountain of light aud joy to man—is free
to all.
Hu.Ison; the Susquehanna, Capt. Joshua pressoil in Italian without tliminishing its excel-
; the Airarnemiion, .Master-Commander Nod-| lence, and then it would not have been hidden
who pass by it. You
pass uuder the arch, and fiud yourself immediate
ly iu one of the roughest scenes of nature! The
arch itself on this side is ma.le of rough stone,
wich, in ttie vi-ry valuable service of testing prac- i and you step immediately into an Alpine cottage.
the wild scenery all around you and the quiet
loneliness of the place boiiij^ well calculated to
deepen the impressions made by the iuscriptiou
on the arch. From this f.oint the path winds
along the side of the hill through evergreeus and
flowers, leading you at length into a beautiful
opeu space, fitted up with swings aud other means
of amitsement for the young.
Passing now over a rustic bridge, you see on
your right the waters of a mu.sical cascade dashing
down the heights, and in a few mi; 'Ues you are
stauding before a little Gothic chapel, which
surprises you with its beauty, and perhaps shocks
your Christian sensibilities .as you come suddenly
upon it in an angle of the shady pathway, and
gaze upon the picture of .Mary, to whom it is
