Tho successful illustrations of Professor
Morse's Magnetic Telegraph, during the sit
tings df the Baltimore Conventions, and the ra
pidity with which questions were sent to Wash
ington and answers returned, a distance of for
ty miles, have awakened curiosity as to the
nature of the invention, and the applications to
which it may be directed. Scientific persons
understand perfectly the tnoilus operandi, but
the great mass only witness its wonderful ef
fects, without comprehending tho manner by
which they have been brought about The in

This is proverbially the lion of the day, and
its performances have won for the inventor
much applause. Its practicability and useful
ness have been fully tested. No sooner will
the country hear of it than they will demand
its extensive introduction. It is a happy cir
cumstance that with the latest improvements
it is erected with little expenditure ; even a
single wire will answer for communication it
tho ground is used for half the circuit this is
nil that is now used between Washington and
Baltimore. It is well, however, to put up two
wires, to insure n circuit, if one wire should be
injured. The whole expense of this Telegraph
is within $'200 per mile, exclusive of the pa
tent. The question crises, why not make- immedi
ately on appropriation to extend tho Telegraph
during the summer el least to New York, and
thus sec how far (it may be added, how trium
phantly) it would sustain itself without aid from
the Treasury ; aflbrding Government and in
dividuals the opportunity of making the termi

stant communication. It is said that a few
hands will put up easily one mile of Telegraph

Some seventeen years ago, I was a 'prentice

streets in the western part of the city.
In roitiij to mv tea, I was in tho habit of
meeting almost every evening, for many weeks
in succession, a small young well dressed and

Just as I was entering the laat half of my nine

fell desparately in love. I knew at the time
that it was the maddest thing in tho world to

with him, he saved the hour each day, which
most persons spend in going to, and returning
from that meal. Many economists would have
been satisfied with the saving of as much time
as this bet ween the rising and going down ol
tin; sun ; but not so with the young shoemaker,
lie also wished to save the hour devoted to ten
and therefore had that meal daily taken to him
by his pretty wile. This arrangement enabled
him to spend the whole day and so much of the
evening as he choose in the shop.
The industrious habits ofthe shoemaker were
soon discovered, and met with a due rewind.
Customers soon flocked in upor. him, and he
was obliged not only to rent a larger shop, but
to employ an additional number of workmen
But the increase of business did not wean him

time his third meal still having been taken
to him by his wife in the little tin p.iil
About this time I left the city, and did not
return for some twelve years. 1 had not, how
ever, forgotten the shoemaker, hav ing from my
first knowledge of him, discovered the germ of
success in his manner of life. I visitc.il the spot
' where his old shop had stood, but it had given
place to a new brick block. In vain I looked
about for his sign it was nowhere to ho seen

tones; but u would not do, over I went into the

was all up with us and then there was a blank.
When I awoke again I found myself in bed
very weak ami very wretched. The doctor told
me that 1 had been threatened with inflamma
tion of the bi a i n, but that a rheumatic fever had
stepped in instead. What a cold bath to ro
mance. I who was dying ot a broken heart to

I lere was a da.nper. I a rake! who had never
dared to read ceutain chapters in the old testa

young mail should ! I a libcrline, who had ne

The rharge astonished me; the Virtuous Sur

but astonishment and indignation did no good ;
both ended, as belore, with the rheumatism.

We laitl great plans that night. Elopement,
hasty marriage, prayer for ma's pardon every

the morning I prepared to leave. 1 approach
ed the window and looked out, it was unusually
dark. There is on especial proverb against
jumping in tho dark, but I did not think of it
just at the moment, more's the pity.
Tho farewell kiss was burning on my lips
the soft adieu ringing in my ears, as I took
the jump. Powers of mud ! I found myself
immersed to the lips in a hogshead of warm
meal slush a compound which, however good
for fattening hogs, is not exictly calculat
ed for a hot bath. How it got there, or how I
got into it, I did not ascertain, for the bark
ing of the dog called my attention to a new
danger. The beef I held in my hand as I leap
ed from the window, and I now contrived tt
draw it out ofthe. meal, with Ihc hope of si
lencing the dog, here I attempted to cxtricato
myself from the unpleasant situation in which
I w as placed. But tho dogs tho' they like beef
well enough, arc not particularly fond of Indian
local, but, as I soon found to my cost. The
enemy came on with a fierce yell, as I held out
the beef, a ctiddcn flotl of light, exposed tome.
and two or three grinning servants and a host
of 'family friends,' tho ridiculous scene in which
I was figuring. 1 attempted to rise and explain
as Mr. Wise did a few months ago in Congress
but the dog decided that it was out of order,
and compelled mo to 'duck' my head quite un
der to avoid his spring, arose but to hoar peal
of laughter and dodge In the same way again
from the vilo animal who continued lo )uap
over me with the agility of a cat and the fe
rocity of a tiger. I thought my lime had come,
and was about to resign myself to my fate with
as much dignity as it was possible for me to ex
hibit in a hogshead, when my persecutor, re
lented and called the dog oil. 1 was then taken
out, scraped down, and allowed to depait, but
llie story of my mishap became know n and I
was greeted with laughs of derisijn at every
corner.
Against this however, I bore up bravely, till
I was informed that that tair one for whom I
had encountered all these perils, had played ma
false by marrying a cousin, then 1 swore sol
emly never agiin to dabb'c in love or meal
slush, and thus ended my first and last love af-
