fust enough to Batisfy-the eager
demands of interest and curiosity. -Our Grandma's,
silently submitted to bear the martyrdom Of suspense
and anxiety of weeks and fortnlgbls, before they
could receive the tokens of regard from their smit
ten swains but we are lure our Ladies of the pre
sent day would die out-right, were they subjected to
so soul-trying an ordeal ; they could not bear sus
pense ; not theybut when they want a private tete-a-tete
with their would-bs ahem ! who is some
two or three hundred miles away, why they just
trip over to the " wire-post office," and rlie gentle
one breathes forth into his ear soft words and sweet
whispers, which are borne to him, " with the rapid
ity of lightning."
Not yet with all these, are our go-ahead propen
sities gratified. The progressing Genius of the age,
not content, aspires to accomplish even greater mar
vels. Our readers have doubtless seen some accounts
of experiments lately had ak the North, going to
prove the possibility of constructing an arial convey
ance, propelled by Steam. However incredulous we
have been and may be, the confidence with which
such a probability even is regarded by many, almost
disarms skepticism. Fifty years since, the idea of
steam navigation would have been considered equal
ly as chimerical, and that of telegraphic communi
cation been hooted at as worse than visionary.
We have seen within the past day or two a dia
gram of the conveyance, and read the proposals of
its proprietors, wherein they offer to take passengers
for California, at $50 each through in five days!
The Steamer is to be 500 feet long by 50 in diame
ter, and ready for its first cruise about the 15th of
April. The engine is of ten horse power, driving
the propellers at the rate of 200 revolutions a min
ute; and hence the speed is estimated at between
fifty and a hundred miles per hour ! it almost takes
one's breath aWay to think of it !
If this experiment succeeds, what may we not ex-'
pect next ? The reverie of Ollapod may be real
ized who knows? Here it is: .
Imagination took a wide range-and presently I
was In a dream. And methought icrmy dream, that
I was in the second story parlor of the Atlantic
and Pacific Hotel, and United States7 Half-way
House, on the top of the Rocky Mountains. After
a sumptuous repast, and beautiful view of the coun
try, east and west, which I may hereafter describe,
I took up the village newpaper. It was entitled the
' New-Babylon Observer, and Register of the World.'
The copy 1 held in my hand bore the date of May
the seventeenth, nineteen hundred and forty. It
was sent round the place by a rail-car, and was
thrown in the dwellings by machinery, conducted
by Steam. The first paragraphs that struck my
eye, were these, amply emblazoned, suddenly-to
catch the general eye :
'REPORTED FOR THE NEW-BABYLON OBSERVER.
'TERRIFIC CIRCUMSTANCE !
'It becomes our painful but imperative and extra
ordinary duty, to promulgate the facts of a disaster
which reached us today, bythe mail from Thebes,
via the perpendicular railroad. As a party were as
cending, with the locomotive playing a lively tune,
assisted on the piano-forte by another locomotive,
that bad been hired by Signor Goitini, preparatory
to his first concert in New-Babylon, some religious
persons of the 'United States' Established Mormon
Churdh,' insisted that the time, being irreverent,
should be changed. This offensive tune was.no less
than the well known and popular song, (supposed to
have been written in England, previous to the sub
jugation of that place by the Russians,) entitled
' Proceed it, ye Crippled Ones, Babylon's Nigh.'
This complimentary course on the part of the loco
motive, and the gentlemanly engineer with whom it
associates, was hissed by the Mormon9, until they
were overcome by the encores of the majority. The
locomotive was of course embarrassed, but we under
stand, continued to play. One of the Mormons, en
raged beyond measure at this circumstance, rushed
forward through the door-way of the train, and
wontonly turned the stop-cock of ' What's become of
good Old Daniel?' one of the slowest tunes -of the
day. The consequence was, that the train, proceed
ed with the greatest discord, because the latter tune
was for the back-track, in descending the mountain.
The result was, the car were thrown off the . rails,
down a precipice of nearly three hundred feet ; but
owing to the exertions of Mr. Inclination Plain, first
engineer, they were got back by nis Upward Impulse
Screw, which has thus far answered admirably, stop
ping cars in mid-air, if they run off a precipice, and
returning them safely, by means of the patent steam
wind-bags, which extend beneath the trains, and de
stroy their gravity.

accusation with profound contempt. (Great cheer

"Order.") j
Mr. A. Snodgrass rose to order. Ho threw him
self upon the Chair. Hear.J He wished to know
whether this disgraceful contest between two mem

Hear, bear.
The Chairmnn was quite sure the Hon. Pickwick
ian would withdraw the expression he had just made
use of.
Mr. Blotton, with all possible respect for the Chair,
was quite sure he would not.
The Chairman felt it his imperative duty to de
mand of the honorable gentleman, whether he had
used the expression which! had just escaped him,
in a common sense.
Mr Blotton had no hesitation in saying that he
had not be had used the word in its Pickwickian
sense. Hear, hear. He was bound to acknowledge
that personally, he entertained the highest regard
and esteem for the honorable gentleman; he merely
considered him a in Piokwickian point of view.
Hear hear.
Mr. Pickwick felt much gratified by the fair, can
did, and full explanation of his honorable friend. He
begged it to be at once understood that his own ob
servations had been merely intended to bear a Pick
wickian construction. Cheers.

A Happy Expression. We learn that a gen

"Sir, you are a rich man, a nation's strength
consists in the number of her people, and a pa

THE LATE MR. CLAYPOOLE.
It affords me great pleasure to read, in your
paper of Saturday last, the kind notice you made
of the late David C Claypoole, a noble patriot of
the Revolution, who lately deceased in this city.
His name and fame were worthy of a high eulo
gium. My object, however, is only to state an
incident connected with the last political act of
his life, on the 7th of November last.
In that great struggle to carry Pennsylvania,
the Whigs of MWdleward used etrenous efforts
to bring out every voier. The name of the ven
erable Claypoole. foremost on their list, bad been
wanting at the Governor's election, advanced age
and indisposition confining him to his room. But,
when called upon lo rally once more to save the
State for Taylor, as bv a change of less than one
vote in a thousand it might be lost, the old patriot
roused himself once more, for the purpose of
casting his last ballot, even at the risk of his life,
at the Hall of Independence where he had in
youth volunteered to fiaht the battles of his coun
try had heard the first sound of the voice of
liberty in the Declaration of Independence had
cast his first vote tor the Father of his Country
and now resolved that his last vote should be
for one injwhoiq he said the virtues and character
of Washington shone conspicuous.

This Book haseen praised, by the critics and call
ed "gon&'.l Some even say it Is a work of intense
interest, and one 6r two have complimented the Au
thor upon .the exceeding knowledge of human na
tdr'iy.ed'r.lretnv irVelt, it is good, perhaps,
and our own literary, obtuseness veils the truth.
Buf let us look a little into the matter. " Vanity
Fair a novel without a Hero"-i-starts; yery fairly,
as we opine, with fhree Heroes, and two Heroines.
The principal, Beiky Sharpe is the cleverest char
acter in the work, and the worst She starts forth
from the walls of the Miss Pinkertons' Academy to
get through the world, and in the upper circles there-;
of byntrigae, impudence and ambition and she
mainjains these three points quite consistently to the
therftae some Becxy Sharpes in the world, thoug
we doubt whether there can be any so lost to the
feelings of humanity as to throw off all affection for
both hubafid and child. We think if Mr. Thack
eray htd made Becky's passion for ambition and
wealth.afyernate between some of a Mother's feeling
for the Young Rawdon, it wouid have been more natural'-
that, like the " Corsair," she might have " lin
ked one virtue with a thousand crimes."
Amelia, who is meant to be very sweet, very pretty
and very aimiable- is decidedly weak in intellect, and
it gets no wise the stronger by a ten years knowledge
of the naughty people in Vanity Fair ; or she would
not have been taken in by Becky the second time.
She wins upon oar sympathies however with her for
giving heart, affectionate impules, and the spirit
of holy remembrance with which she clings to the
husband who lay dead on the Field of Waterloo.
William Dobbin was about as unnatural a saint
as Becky was a bad woman j thongh the most consis
tent character among the number not a few for
e meet with rery many people in Vanity Fair.
We-SsCble Crwleys are not a specimen of En
glish nobility abou the year 1815. The Baronet is
a vulgar, rilliterate and gross sensualist, whom
Becky wonld no douot have accepted as a husband,
if she had not caught a younger member of the same
noble family, by whom she expected to get rich
through his maiden aunt, who it seems was the only
one of the family whom Becky coulil not entrap
Even Sir Pitt, too, tbeugh a very great hypocrite,
was beguiled by Beoky's fluttering, and we were in
some trepidation lest she should get innocent and
moral Dobbin into her mesh. The most natural per
son is fat Joseph Sedley, who having little sense to
start with, we could not much wonder, became Becky's
prey at last. We suppose Becky's career ended nat
urally enough, though in the present day, we think
she would have found an asylum at a white building
very finery located on the Banks of the Hudson Riv
er. Of the two husbands, little can be said, as one
died just in time to save his reputation, and the oth
er was only a puppet in the bands of the more subtle
and designing wife. Finally, there are a good many
silly people in the world and many worshippers of
mammon but we imagine Vanity Fair exhibits as
msehafibe real world, as do the letters of certain.

For the Ladies Our fair readers will bo in
terested in the following, which we teke from a
New York Correspondent of the Philadelphia
North American, who professes to be au fait in
such matters : .
The new Parisian bonnet is a trifle smaller,
and less broadly arched over the forehead than
last winter. The materials are, ofcoursevof the
lightest description short .'of -positive diaphony
which is held in reserve for midsummer and New
port. The outside -embellishments consist of a
single bunch of small fresh spring flowers, or a
single blush rose. Inside, a flowery labyrinth
clings gracefully and caressingly to the downy
check, and in this department, the exquisite and
st 1 1 1 inimitable taste, talent, art call it what you
will, I name it genius of the Parisian milliner,
is displayed in its highest and most delicate form.
The favorite colors of the new bonnets are pink
and 3ufe. indeed, nothing else'is strictly allow-
ladies on promenade wear green mantiUan, and
half of them green dresses as well, the effect of
these pink and white bonnets, with their delicious
trimmings, is indescribably charming. Every
where the eye is refreshed with the tender con
trast of soft green and blushing pink, save when,
here and there, it reposes ! for a moment on a
snow white bonnet, curving gracefully as a sea
shell around a face beautifui as Aphrodite.

CONSUMPTION.
There, is, perhaps, no disease with which our
country is affected, which sweeps off annually so
many victims, as that fell destroyer of the human
race, Consumption, What a yaSt amount of suffer

would but avaft themselves in season of tile remedies
which Nature has provided for her children, and
which Science has reduced to such a form as to be
within the reach of all. Far be it from us to tamper
with those who are Suffering with this painful disease
In offering you a remedy, we do not ask you to rely
upon the representation of those who might be actu
ated by selfish and pecuniary motives, bat we give
you the deliberate testimony of some of .the most
r "specl able physicians, that Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry has established for itself a reputation that
cannot be availed. Dr. WmjA, Shaw, of Washing
ton, N. C, writes, under date of May. 1, 1846, as
follows.: . , 1 .
" I have heard of mafly oases of decided beneficial
effects from its use, especially in Asthma and chronic
ceogh of spasmodic character. I have used the Wild
Cherry a greaf eal in practice, ""and with marked
good results in those cases of great ner.V'ous mobility
and irritability, to'whicli phthisical patients are sub

the effects of Prosaic acid may be had as a senative
