Wtliw fitness of thrngs c'harlactefTHic'of the
Knov-Nothiii$r party, Francis J. Griind is
allowed to report the motives and divulge the
counsels of the" Know-Nothing nominee. By
birth and blood Grnnd is an Austrian Jew, a
prostitute in morals, by trade a foot-pad, and
in politics a hireling scavenger. This indivi
dual selects the columns of the New Yorkllerald
as the medium of communication between
Millard Fillmore and the people of the United
States.
Grnnd says, writing from Rome and in the
presence of Fillmore, that he will not accept or
reiect the Know-Nothing nomination, until he
is informed of the result of the Cincinnati Con
vention, and ascertains the chances of his suc
cess which is exactly equivalent to a declara
tion that he will never accept at all, for by that
time Fillmore's name will not even be before
the country. Gruud tells us, moreover, that if
Fillmore should accept the nomination, he will
not commit himself by any pledge or declara
tion but will stand solely on his personal merits.
It is a singular coincidyjice that a wretch like
Gruud should write for a gentleman like Fill
more. lZichmund Enquirer.
Steam-power ecupsep. The London Morn
ingCrhoniclc announces an important discover-.
It is stated that a great experiment "was
recently tried at Yinccnnes, in the presence of
General Lahitte and the officers of the fort.
The secret of compressing and governing elec
tricity is at length discovered, and the power
may, therefore, now be considered as the sole
mortar henceforward to be used. A small
mortar was fired by the inventor at the rate
of a hundred shots a minute, without flashing,
smoke, or noise. The same power can, it
seems, be adapted to every system of mechani
cal invention, and it is destined to supersede
steam, requiring neitlter machinery nor combus
tion. A vessel propelled by this power is said
to skim the water like a bird, and to fear
neither storm nor hurricane. The inventor
has alread' petitioned for a line of steamers
from L'Orient to Norfolk, in the United States
which passsige he promises to accomplish in
citrht-and.fi.rtOhonrs!" " " - " "
CorRTixo Widows. An exchange paper, the
editor of which, no doubt, lately "set up" with
a willow, goes off thus:
"For the other half of a courting match,
there 'is nothing like an interesting widow.
There's as much difference between courting a
damsel and an attractive widow, as there is in
cyphering in addition and double rule of three.
Courting a girl is like eating fruit, all very nice
as it extends, bnt doing the amiable to a blue
eyed bereaved one in black crape "comes under
the head of preserves rich, pungent, syrupy.
For delicious courting, wc repeat, give us a live

Cottox Scperseded By Sit.K. The Paris
correspondent of the Loudon Atlas says:
"We hail with delight the announcement
that savant has just made so valuable a dis
covery in the art of preparing silk, that this
article will become cheaper and more common
than cotton. The savant, it appears, one day
having nothing else to do, began to thiv.'.;
which is wonderful for a savant, says Alphonse
Karr that there was but one creature capable
of producing silk that there was bnt one de
scription of vegetable matter, that of the mul
berry tree, fitted for the creature's food, there
fore the silky substance must not lie in the
animal, but in the vegetable matter; so at once
the savant set about analyzing the composition
of the mulberry leaf, and by boiling to a thick
paste has produced every.descriptioti of silk in
immense quantities. I have seen several yards
manufacture, ana aiuiougn warning u nine
of the gloss belonging to that spun by the
of manufacture, and although wanting a little
worm, I can pronounce it as superior to the
finest foulard hitherto made. The price of
....... - 1 1
silk is live trancs a pounu wnen spun, oeing
one hundred and twenty francs cheaper than
that of the present day. This new . method of
procuring silk will at once be adopted in all
countries, as the ntnlberry can be grown in any
country, and requires scarcely any culture.
A sick family. We clip the following from
the Newark (N. J.) 'Advertiser:
"A Mrs Sarah Coarson eloped recently from
West Milford, Passaic county, with a Mr
David White, of that place, being the third
time she has figured as one of the parties of an
elopement. The woman is one of a family of
six sisters, named Ryerson, five of whom have
left their husbands aud eloped with other men.
AH six have been married, and not one lives
with a lawful husband at the present day; five
having eloped, and the only remaining one
deserting her husband, or refusing to live with
him.. A case of equal singularity cannot pro
bably be found anywhere in the Union." 0
An intelligent lady whose little Loy was
beginning to swear, anxious to express to her
child her horror of profanity, hit npon the
novel proces of washing out his mouth with
soap-suds whenever he swore. It was an effec

sense of the corruption of an oath, which, with
the taste of the suds, produced the desired
result. The practice if nniversallv adopted.

Cause of Epldcmicf.
Mk.sks, Eiutors: Gentlemen As there is
much speculation in regard to yellow fever,
ai d as much as has been said,, and much more
will be said, we may venture to state the cause
and its remedies. The cause of yellow, broken
bon bilious, interniUteiit, and the congestive
fevers, are nearly akin, only of different types,
brought about by the same general cause.
Fevers in general are caused by congestion or
stoppage of the various secretions of the human
system. When the vessels, absorbents, capil
lary or symplietie, become filled with foreign
matter, the healthy organization cannot be
carried ou in the human physical system A
congestion of the liver will derange the whole
economy of the system, and produce a similar
effect" upon the other organs, which will be
shpvya.in ja; iiaturaWmicar.aclioj
fever. The different types depend iiponTho
amount of the absorbent of foreign matter the
system has taken up. It may be that all vege
table, life is connected with animal life, as wheu
vegetables are decomposed in water it will yield
a large amount of animalcule. It may be that"'
the yellow fever originates from the reception
oT animalcules into the human system, and the
various secretions are stopped, or clogged, by
this foreign matter; after which an action takes
place of a chemical character an acton upon
the part of the system to throw off the foreign
matter, and this is styled the fever, front the
heut and frequent beating of the pulse. When
vegetable matter is put into water, such as
roses in bloom, or lillies, or any other llowers,
it produces in twelve to twenty-four hours in
the summer season animalcules, as will be seen
by a microscope of 2.000 to 5000 diameter.
These animalcules can be taken into the system
in three ways: by changing the venous into
arterial blood, by the absorbent vessels of the
skin, and with the food we take luto t!.o
system.
Many animals live npon the small insects of
the atmosphere, the martin, swallow, fern,
owl, or whippcrwill, and a host of others live
upon the wing. The' get their food from the.
air. These bisects are too small for us to see,
only when we examine their stomachs or craws
with a microscope. I have seen on a rivulet a
fly hovering over the water, within one inch,
for what purpose, but to catch the animalcules
that issues from the water; it cannot be for
pleasure only, but to feed, which is a pleasure.
In the summer season, when we have such a
large amount of vegetable matter, and when it
decomposes especially, it gives out animalcules.
This is brought about certainly by being im
mersed in water water having its parts (8)
eight oxygen, and (1) one hydrogen the at
mosphere which we breathe being different, (5)
five of oxygen ami '20) twenty of nitrogen ga.
This matter has been neatly mid closely deter
mined by the French Academy of Science.
Although with sonic it may be thought other
compounds exist in the two prominent gases of
tita nic, .30 wit.U ..., is certain, . as jr?ti
cally demonstrated evi-ry-duy. When decom
position goes ou in the vegetable kingdom, in
the summer season, the air becomes filled with
innumerable quantity of matter which is called
malara, but by the speculator or physical science
animalcules. These animalcules we take into
the human system, hence the disorganization
and its consequences.
A query might now be made, that assertions
are one thing and the proof is another. This
we will have to do hypothetical!-. A person
dying with yellow (ever or bilious fever, and
having died in June to November, hcrtnetjcally
sealed, in tin or other metal, after remaining in
the coffin fourteen days, when open it will be
found to contain millions of larva but if the
patient should die in our climate in November
to March, by examining in fourteen days it
will be found only to be returning to its native
elements. The germ of the existence of the
animal in the firt case must have been there,
and brought about by deposition of ova by an
animalcule, hence in the future decomposition
of the body the existence of the larva;. As you
have the diagnosis, as given you, we will now
give the prognosis, and its remedies: Tim
atmosphere suffused with these small animal
cules, what will drive them away or kill them,
or change the tenor of the atmospheric air? In
whatever infected district they may appear, by
persons taking the fever, let pitch, tar, or iohji,
tr any other matter, be burnt night and morn
ing. The lire that it will require to keep il
alive, one-fifth portion of the air, oxygen, and
it will necessarily bring down the pure air from
the surrounding neighborhood. Also, in the
infected districts covvr the ground with chloride
0f lime, which will have the tendency of de-
stroving them. In this way a large amount
! J . . -
may oe got rm or. jniemaiiy, inc use 01 the
usual remedies that have been given, calomel,
to poison the animalcules, and a perspiration
to be kept up 011 the skin so as to throw tin
matter off. As to the sanitary measures that
should be used, they should be stringent; all
vegetable matter that may be in the street
should be removed; committees should be ap
pointed in each ward to visit the- premises of al;
property in the city; anil if the offal be taket
some two or three miles from the city, we itt(
not fear of having the yellow fever, notwith
standing the predictions of wise and lea rued
men. "A stitch in time saves nine.' lialli-

in New Mexico, in the course of a recent htu;,
wrote us of the fair sex there, as follows:
