"Drift-Wood," by 1'hilip tiuilibot, containing "Naval Names; ' "A Word an I its Uses." "Literature and Ail." "Nebula'," by he Editor. We rjuoto tho following on "The Dickens Nr.rues," by W. Yv'. Fowler: What's in a name? Very much, in a suc cessful novel. Tho tragic, romantic, and chivalrous in fiction, ot co .rse, have their distinct class of high-sounding and musical Appellatives, just as the simply respect able and comiuon-plaee have their appropriate nnuies; but the comic and grotesque call for a nomenclature both odd and ridiculous, and the more marked in this respect the better. We could hardly imagine the character known to us as Mr. lhiggs, the highly respectable man of business in tho "bottle-green" jacket, as figuring under the name and style of Lo renzo orliomeo, any mora than we could sup pose tho practically maudlin Swivellerto h:ivo changed names with the melancholy Alouzo or the conventional Major Fe;idennis. The modern system of lielion-names, it nhould bo here noted, is quite ditl'erent from the antique. The latter consisted rather in the use of significant words which describe in set nnd unmistakable terms tho personage that bears them. Tho names of the tfrduintin ptrsoiid' of Aristophanes, prineo of Greek comedy, aro a case in point. Thus, for in stance, the principal personage in his play of the CloHif, a cunning lout, is called Strep siades, that is, tho "son of a twister." The modem system, on tho other hand, consists more generally in tho fabrication or tho Kelectn of names which by means of tho S.,. curioig1 juxtaposition 0f vowel'; and consonants vtholtwlltly distinct meaning as words, by their sound alone convey to the mind an idea more or less clear of the characters to which they belong. Wo get, in this way, at the start, a kind of cabinet picture, in shadow, light or dark, of the. persons whoso traits aro tilled in by sundry broad strokes as tho play develops. It is of tho Dickens mines that we are now to speak in this connection. For variety, sin gularity, and fitness they may challenge com parison, not with that of one merely, but with that of any ten authors, living or dead. In deed, his selection of fiction names would of itself prove him tho judicious artist and tho consummate man of genius in all that relates to the subtly humorous and tho broadly gro tesque. Every one who has read him will unite in the exclamation of the young French man on reading "Martin Clmzzlewit," "where did the man get all his names?" Did ho select them from the very full and rich vocabulary of English onomatology, comprising, as it does, twenty thousand or more surnames, or did ho evolve them, as some metaphysical philosophers would say, "from his inner con sciousness." Largely, no doubt, from the latter. Some are clearly such as we may see any day, and are common enough. Not a few may bo attributed to his wonderful power of perception and association. Tho mind of the great humorist is like a vast kaleido scope, crowded with mental daguerreotype negatives ot impressions ij.uuereil lrom a thousand sights and objects through life, from early childhood. This kaleidoscope the master hand has only to shift a tritlu from one side to tho other, and straightway groups of strange faces and forms are thrown upon the pages, nnd then come trooping forth names equally strange, and arrange themselves in their proper places. Such names as Sli- derskew, l'umlilechook, Sweedlepipe, rod snap, Pogram, and a host of others, are purely fanciful, and yet full of tho most ludicrous suggestion; others sound liko real names cu riously twisted and distorted, sometimes with queer diminutive tails tacked on, such as Tap pertit, Creakle, Wititterly, etc.; others, again, are word-caricatures, like Mautilini, Suovel licci, -Pecksniff, Veneering, etc. lint, strange as it may appear, the larger number oi these tautasuc names aro now, or have been heretofore, borne by living flesh and blood. Not only in Kent, the native county of the great magician, and in London, but all up and down "Merrio England," from Devonshire to tho "land of cakes and brither Scots," they meet us like old, familiar faces. Not long since, a traveller, stopping at Folke stone, a pleasant village near Dover, in Kent, bad bis attention attracted by a "groat, broad-shouldered, genial Englishman," in every line of whose rubicund face the word jolly was patent. Hearing him addressed as "Taploy," a mischievous impulse, too strong to be resisted, urged our traveller to address him, and inquire if this was Mr. Mi ark Tap ley. The surprise may be imagined when, in the richest of South English tones, the an swer came forth, "Tho same, at your service, sir." What made the coincidence still more striking was the fact that he had actually been in America and was overheard by our informant "damning the blarstod coa itry" with true British unction. Other Kentish names aro Chuslet, a contraction of Clmzzlewit, Bubblo and Hubble, Koker, Sloper and Soper, Tigg and Bigg, Noggs and Boggs, Wardlo and Var den, Jagger and Bufkiu. Weevil and Barkis t a Jemmy Groves and a Tom Codlin, not to mention a Ben Allen and a Bob Sawyer, may also be found in tho old name registers of that county. The name of Pickwick will, we trust, ba not the less illustrious and venerable when we assert that the De Pikewikos were a "family of repute," as Burke would phrase it, in tho county of Wilts, as long ago as the reign of Edward I. One of this family, a William do Pikewike. was. like his namesake of glorious memory, actually imprisoned, we are sorry to say, for felony, but as tne onense was com pounded by the payment of eight shillings, it I'nnnnt b tbouL'ht verv heinous. How many a charmed Lour spent over those mngical pages is brought to mind, when in Yorkshire we meet such names as John Brow die and aW. Siueers(not'Vaokford, howevor); in Cheshire, the Gummidges, Budges and Twnmlows: in Essex the Chicks, one of whom, at least, is Miss Chick. Dumby is a Lincoln shire name, and Bunsby reminds us of the naval tero wLq dispensed hjs wjsdvm ia "solid chunks;" but among tho numerous by names in that county, we look in vain for a Snngsby, a lTedgoby, a Nickloby, and a Jol lnby; there is in one of its wolds a Dodlock, who might have been, wo will suppose, a far away cousin of Sir Leicester Dedlock, of Chesneywold, Bart. Solomon Gillis lived in Devonshire, a hundred years ago, and the Cuttles have numerous representatives in Scotland, for which overhaul your guido book, "and when found ni'iko a note." Some of the characters look as if they had bor rowed their names from tho Anglo-Saxons and Danes of a thousand years ago, and of such aro Wegg and Wackles, Peggotty, Natting ill, nnd Wopsle. Nkiflin, Senby, Sloppy, Knagg, and Kettle were old Scandinavians in York shire nnd Nottinghamshire. Boffin, tho Golden Dustman, finds his prototype- in Bof ling of King Alfred's days. Among these an cient names we meet a Tullocking, which readily suggests Tulkinghorn, and a Spot tie and Turvcy; from which tho descent is easy to Spottletoes and Tnrveydtop. A Kongo is, modern Londoner, but Carboy and Quiuion aro old Irish names. Bardcll, Potterson, and Micawber aro found in Scotland. Walking through Loudon streets a crowd of familiar surnames look down at us from tho sign-boards, and seem to grimace welcome as we repent them. Toodles is a clerk in the Common l'leas; Nipper keeps coffee rooms No. 8 Castle street, but whethe r ho has a daughter Susan deponent saith not; Caiker is a printer; a not very "young man of tho name of (nippy, keeps a chandler's shop at No. 1 Geo street; a Bucket, weary, perhnps, of his arduous labors in the detective force, was lately a dairyni m at No. s Chandler place. Flito, a fishmonger, Iso. 8 I nioii street, has a daughter known as Miss Elite. Brass, Vholes (or Yowles), and Quillop (Qnilp) aro earning an honest liveli hood. A Gargery has gone into the leather business. Mrs. Crupp is a milliner; Heap, whoso Christian name may, for aught wo know, be Uriah, is keeping the "Bunch of drapes, a public house on Dowgate Hill. Pocket is fishmonger; Traddles a green grocer. The Cheerybles lately held a family meeting in London. Winkle, Dowler, Nub- bles. Muzzle, Gruinnier, St lggins, nnd J np man, are Londoners. Dodson and Fogg do not appear on the roll of attorneys, but a Dodson is now an advocate, and every one knows how Foggs abound in London, even outside of tho courts of law. Pinch. Slyme, Venus, Tippons, nnd l'eecher are entities among English names, but we look in vain for our old friends Bag- stock. Todgers, Blimbcr, Lamnile, Linkiu water, and a host of others, all ligments of the novelist's brain. Vialer the name of Pogram ho hits otV tho ponderous oracular utterances of Daniel Web ster. Cyrus Choke, U. S. M., is tho noui ir ijnirrr of Bufus Choate, and Genery Dunkle, the shrill boy, is Oliver Wendell Holmes indeed a perusal of Martin Clmzzlewit will call up not a few pen caricatures of distin guished Americans, masquerading there under the oddest of names. To the careful student the Dickens nomenclature is a striking illus tration how genius by a process intuitive and peculiar to itself, mastering tho laws of lan guage and tho human mind, calls in as minis ters to its work all that is dramatic in philoso phy, history, and society. I'nder the head of "Xcbuhe," tho editor contributes the following paragraphs: -Hero is a contribution to the great wo man's rights discussion, which though indirect in its application, may be worth considering. Insurance companies which are willing to grant policies ot insurance on tlie lives ot women, reluso to insure women against acci dents. Why? For the following reasons, as we heard them lately explained by tho agent of a company in large business: Women sel dom have any regular occupation, and it is, theretore, olten impossible to lie certain whether a woman is really disabled by an acci dent to such a degree as would entitle a man to compensation. Women's clothes render them specially liable to nccideut a woman is held fast by Ler petticoats amid the ilthriiot a shattered railway car, for instance,' when a man is easily extricated. Women seldom have as much coolness and presence of mind in danger ns men have, and therefore aro more liable to be injured. Women, owing to obvious physical causes, are liable to severe injury from mere fright a false alarm of lire, for instance, or the supposed imminence of a railway collision, from the shock of which tho most cowardly man recovers in half an hour may bring an almost fatal miscarriage on his wile. Tho vast majority of women are affected by or liable to ailments which render any shock likely to injure and disable, and from which men are wholly exempt. Women commonly decline to submit to the examination ot tho medical officers of a company, and tho com pany, therefore, have frequently no moans of knowing whether tho disabling for which compensation is claimed may not bo tho re sult of other causes than those to which it is acribed. Finally and for these two con cluding reasons wo beg to say our gallantry utterly refuses to hold itself responsible women make a tremendous work about small hurts which men would hardly heed; and are less honest m their dealings than men: Jmt nosh r tie mriito ! We only present it for the consideration ot tho philosophic mind. Is "a sorrow's crown of sorrow tbe re membering happier things?" Tennyson says so, acknowledging that ho takes tho belief from Dante, who put it into the mouth of poor Francesca de Rimini; and Dante through Frnncesca acknowledges that ho took it from Virgil. Thackeray speaks in "Vanity Fair" of "that bitterest of all helpless woe with which miserable men think of happy past times." Y'et, despite all these great authori ties, tho general truth of tho sentiment may surely bo questioned. Does not tho memory of a happy time frequently commonly one might say operate in alleviation of a present sorrow ? Do not garrulous people, reduced to sudden poverty, tind evident consolation in thinking and talking ot tneir hetter days? To speuk of sorrows of a tenderer kind, does not Tennyson himself say " 'tis better to have loved nnd lost than never to have loved at all?" Does not Goethe's Egmont, on the verge of the scaffold, console himself with the proud Buying, I cease to live, but X have lived And Shakespeare's Antony, in his utter ruin anduespair, finds a joy in feeding his thoughts "on those my former fortunes, wherein I I' 1 11 . . 4 i i, .1 It uvea mo greuiesi prince oi iue earm. 1'oor Francesca of Kimiui hersolf did, wo ennnot help thinking, derive some comfort, in all her shame and misery, from tho remembrance of the brief hour of mad and sudden happi ness. Disraeli makes bis Ixion, as he is about to be launched into eternal space, bound to the wheel, tell Jupiter defiantly that ho cau bear the unending punishment, because "my memory shall bo everlasting as my torment. An eminent Englishman, who has for some years been wholly blind from the effects of an accident, once assured ns that it is always a joy to him to remombor tbe scenes he loved to look on w hen he had sight. We think there is a good case to be made out against Dante's f amoufl declaration. K7LWS SUrTIMAR-g. CUT Affair. About half-past six o'clock last evening, nn alarm of tire was caused by the rekindling of the fire at tho Dessicated dullish Com pany's building, on Columbia avenue, noir Fifth street. While tho firemen wore en gaged in extinguishing tho flames, an adjoin ing shed, upon w hich were a large number of boys, gave way, precipilntiug all to tho ground. Among thej injured was Thomas F.

I'lorri'iliiiKi oT tlic 'niiBrcm-An IntercitiiiK Delude. Subsequent to tho closing oT our report yesterday nflernoon, tho following proceed ings took place in the Congress of tho Na tional Labor Union, in session at tho Assoiu bly Buildings. The matter of the admission of Miss Susan B. Anthony still continued. Mr. Hngnn, of N. J., thought thnt the only question should be whether Miss Anthony was properly accredited to this Congress. If she wns, sho wns entitled to a seat; if not, she should not bo admitted. 'J he previous question was put, and being properly seconded, tho motion to allow the withdrawal of tho credentials was not agreed to. Mr. Cummins, of Mass., moved a recon sideration of tho vote, and as tho repre sentative of the most powerful trade union in the country, ngainst tho nnrrow-minded, sectionnl spirit displayed by the majority of the convention in its two days' session, with reference to the admission of Miss Anthony. Miss Walbridge, as a representative of tho working women of Massachusetts, desire! that Miss Anthony might bo admitted. They regarded her as a working woman, and would regard her rejection as a death-blow to the cause. Peter P. Brown, a colored delegate from Philadelphia, thought that, this matter should bo fought out fairly, and hoped that tho mo tion to reconsider would bo carried. Ho was much applauded, and at tho con clusion of bis remarks Mr. Cummins arose, amid cries of "question," nnd considerable confusion, but finally obtained tho lloor, and reiterated hia former arguments in favor of his motion. The motion to reconsider was lost. Mr. Cameron then offered a resolution con fining speeches to ten minutes' duration, an 1 not more than twice on tho same subject. Agreed to. On motion tho ('hair was directed to ap point a Sergeant-at-Arms. Mr. Peter P. Brown, colored, was appointed. Mr. Edward Davis, of Philadelphia, took the lloor, and proceeded to address tho con vention. Mr. M. 11. Walsh, of New York, raised the point of order that tho gentleman was out of order, there being nothing before tho congress. Iho Chair overruled tho point, and Mr. Walsh appealed from his decision. Iho Chair was sustained by a voto ot .rt to :". Mr. Davis then proceeded, and argued that under tho constitution Miss Anthony was entitled to admission, and moved that she bo admitted. Mr. Sylvis, of Pennsylvania, called for tho yeas nnd nnys. The debate was continued at considerable length for and ngainst the proposition, with a great deal of feeling, nnd it was finally deter mined by the admission of Miss Anthony by a vote of ;"i." yeas to " nnys. Mr. Cameron, of Kansas, offered a resolu tion providing for tho appointment of a com mittee to inquire into the condition of those dwelling on the Cherokee Neutral reservation in Kansns. Agreed to. Mr. John F. Walsh, of New York, offered a resolution setting forth that no member of tho National Labor Union will support any candidate for any Legislature who will not pledge himself to oppose tho present system of convict labor contracts. Keferred to an appropriate committee. Mr. Thomas Cnllington, of Maryland, offered a resolution providing that CongroM should lo memorialized against tho importa tion of coolies for tho purposes of labor, lio ferred to Committee on Labor. The following is tho Committee on the Cherokee Neutral Reservation: Hugh Came ron, of Kansns; A. W. Phelps, of Conn.; J. F. West, of Miss.; D. Towers, of Mass.; II. II. Cramer, of Tenn.; II. S. Walker, of Ala bama; John Maguire, of Mo.; W. II. Stew art, of Mich.; L. DoWoolf, of Wis.; Frede rick Plyer, of N. Y. A largo number of resolutions were pre sented by various delegates on different sub jects, nnd wero referred to appropriate com mittees. Mr. Davis, of Philadelphia, read and sub mitted to the convention a document recom mending a radical change in the financial policy of tho country, the adoption of a uni versal paper currency, and free trade. It was referred to tho Committee on Platform. A delegate suggested that tho attention of the committee bo called to that portion re ferring to free trade, as ho for ono was in favor of a still higher tariff than the present one. Adjourned until this morning. MISSOURI. PHi.p I'lfiht between Tom Allen nml ( luirlex t.iillHKlu r Alien the Victor m the Aaiil of the Ninth KoiiiiiI. Sr. Louis, Aug. 17. The prize fight party left on the steamer Louisville for Foster's Island, the scene of the conflict between Allen and McCoole, at 'J o'clock this morning, twelve hundred strong. Tho combatants wero taken on board at Carondelet, six miles below the city, between 10 and 11 o'clock, since when nothing has been heard from the party. St. Louis, Aug. 17. Brief despatches say the prize-fighting party arrived at the chosen ground at 12 2." P. M. Dad It yan was se lected as umpire for Allen, and Jack Lowrey for Gallagher. At 1"U Gailagher entered the ring, Allen having previously taken his place. Allen won the choice of corners, and tho light is now progressing. Sr. Louis, Aug. 17. Tom Kelley and Nod O'Baldwin were tho seconds for Gallagher, and Jim Covue nnd Butt Biley for Allen, Larry Hessel acting as referee. The ring was formed in a grove, but tho sun poured in fiercely. Will Karney was ringmastor, and twenty ring-keepers were appointed to pre serve order. First Bound After considerable sparring, Allen received a heavy blow on tbe mouth, which knocked hirn down and caused him to bleed freely. Second Bound Allen went down from'a sbnrp stinging hit under tho ear. " Third Bound Both received and gave heavy blows, terminating in a clinch, in which Allen went down. At this Jpoint several clubs wero thrown at Allen, one of which hit him oa the chock, causing blood to flow. Fourth Round More terriflo blows were given on both sides, the round terminating in Allen's favor. Fifth Bound This was favorable to Allen, although he was knocked over tho ropes. Sixth Round Gallagher was a little slow in coming up, and received two very heavy blows full on the nose, and another on tho stomach, and although Allen went down at tho close, Gallagher got tho worst of tho round. Seventh, Eighth, nnd Ninth Rounds. These wero nil favorable to Allen, and on tho terminntion of tho latter the spongo was thrown up for Gal higher, nnd Allen declared tho victor. St. Louis, Aug. 17. Tho account t -le-grnphed from the battle-field this afternoon does not ngreo with tho description brought by tho reporters who returned on tho Louis ville this evening. Instead ot nine rounds being fought, as previously reported, there were eleven, more than ludf of which wero decidedly in favor of Allen. At the end of tho eleventh round, Tom Kelly, one of Gallagher's seconds, threw up the sponge, and Allen and his friends left the ring. Subsequently, tho referee sai 1 ho did not know who threw up tho sponge, and de clared tho bnttle a draw. It is stated that Tom Kelly acknowledged on the ground thnt Gallagher whipped, and he threw tho spongo up, but after getting on board tho boat ho denied having done so. The result is considered a greater outrage to Allen than the decision in tho McCoole light. PENT. The Prospective ('onxcrvnilve 'nnll''ule fr (Governor ol .MI-.-.iipi'i Write u ".weelly IniliKiiiint" Letter to lioul well. Washington, August 17, lStl'.. To Hon. George S. Boutwell, Secretary of the Treasury Sir: I shall make littlo apology for asking your attention to my letter, and less for the nature of its contents. Y'ou were tho first to deny the politicnl orthodoxy of my friends and myself, nnd by all tho rules of the forum I am entitled to a defense. Again, you bold nn office of the Republic, and your acts, therefore, are legitimate subjects of criticism by the humblest citizen thereof. But in some respects we are nliko. For instance, we are both aspirants for place, with this ditl'ereuco: You aim to bo the next President, with every assurance of success except in tho opinion of the people, while I seek an humbler place, with my hopes in disastrous eclipse except in the judgment of Mississippi. In the probable results of tho future wo both stand amenable to tho judgment of the country. In the pursuit of your ambition, you nre ungrateful and unscrupulous as to the menus of success. Your organ, the New York Sun, in tho sumo breath ridicules the capacity of your master and dwells with em phasis upon your peculiar fitness for his oftice. Your excellent tool, Mr. Tullock, became so reckless in tho manipulation ot your department in the interest of your ambi tion, and so detiant of the wishes of the Presi dent of tho country, that to save yourself from an explosion of popular indignation you found it convenient to transfer him to another sphere of scandalous activity, where his talents might be exerted with equal effect and less effrontery. Virginia, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Texas, not to mention anything so humble as myself, were obstructions in the way of your suc cess, because, through President Grant's intervention in excluding tho proscriptive clauses from their organic law, these States nro brought into tho Luion and nrmly welded to his support. Now, this is indirect contlict with your systemized plans; for what General Grant gets in the next Presidential election, clearly Mr. Boutwell will not got, and there fore have you denounced the conservative Republicans, who are for Grant, that you may obtain tho proscriptive Republicans, who are for Boutwell: and by somo strange dexterous management and occult political strategy you have so worked upon the confidence of tho President ns to cause him to llourish tho club with which you intend to break his head, by inducing him to join you in de nunciation of tho conservative Republi cans a party created by his magnanimity and triumphant through his encourage ment. But, sir, your purposo is easily dis cernible, and has a two-fold object, viz., to destroy tho National Republican party in tho South, and then to reconstruct from its shat tered fragments a Boutwell party, with no Richmond in tho Held to strike for your crow n. But if you cannot succeed in this scheme of desperate enterprise you mean to ruin a result, trom present appearances, much mora likely to be reached. Your official intervention for Wells, for instance, gave twenty thousand majority to Walker. Your letter to Stokes gave Tennes see to Senter by an overwhelming vote ot seventy thousand. lour mar vellous political sagacity, now active in Mississippi and Texas, will repeat your calamity, and again overwhelm you with dis comfiture and deteat. Superadd to tueso re sults ot your unapproachable tolly tho impost tion on these States of your iron-clad oath. nnd tbe alienation is complete, landing them all into tho outstretched arms ot Democracy. But the consequences of your folly do not stop hero. Ohio and Pennsylvania and others will tollow, deciding their political status in October, and the North will echo back tho condemnation of tho South, and peal in your ears this fact, thnt there is still left enough of tbe incorruptible virtue of tho Republic to rebuke you lor a wanton repression of that most sacred right tho elective franchise. But, sir, this will not deter you from your mnd course; you will still persist until every prop that supports our party is stricken away, and the whole grand superstructure tumbles about our ears in hopeless ruin. When you were appointed Secretary of the Irensury, nnd unanimously confirmed by a Senate of every shade of political opinion, did you not take an oath to administer your otlice impar tially, and for the exclusive objects of its creation to collect tbe revenue and control tho finances of the country ? Is not that office the property ot tho nation, and your self only clothed for a time with a littlo brief authority? Ihen, sir, how do you explain this perversion of its logitimnte uses and functions into a means and instrument of op pression to force and compel an election of obnoxious rulers upon tbe people of tho South ? Is such a course consistent with your oath of oftice V or do you call this a great moral idea ? But, Mr. Boutwell, though you have thus prostituted the power of your otlice for purposes of oppression, without the warrant of conscience or law, it niny be that you can tell me by what authority you assume to pro nounce upon my political orthodoxy ? Who constituted you the infallible pope of Repub licanism ? Who gave you the authority to burl the political anathemas of the party 'r Again, what right had you to commit the ad ministration to your policy? Have you to learn yet that you are only part of the ad ministration, and not the whole of it, though your friends believe that a monomania has seized your nind on that subject, and that you verily believe yourself the State ?
