Condition of Mount Vernon A correspondent of the Ilartford Courant, who has recently paid a visit to Mount Ver non, given the following deacnption of 14 melancholy state of affairs it the Washing tom I . ' A tedious drive of two boors over one of the most execrable roads in that section of the pia Dominion, brought us to the ' big gate,' where we were immediately surround ed by a troop of blacks, who offered to show us the curiosities, and give us cuttings from the "grape-vine planted by the great Gen'l Massif, for the small suni of two " Entering the grounds by what IN called the new path, (-the original road—surveyed, laid out and used by Washington—being completely bloated up by the walls of the garden, which have crumbled Into we were sadly impressed by the 'scene of deso lation and decay which presented itself. •• To extreme right of what was once a beautiful lawn, stand tho OM& of the brick balms affil farm buildings, around which were strewn an unsightly mass of di lapidated carts and oh' barrels of trumpery, which had probably been gathering there for years. To the left of these the garden, which in thC days of its beitity was the pride of Mount Vernon, stretched toward the woodland, neglected and deserted save by those whose curiosity leads them to co pier° the shades and paths where Washing ton spent, a s he once said, the pleasantest part of his life of retirement. It was sad in• deed to look upon the beds and walks which were kept in complete cultivation and order by his hands, overgrown with weeds and covered with rubbish, but such is the fact; and even the grape vine which he planted and watched over a ith a fatherly affection, has been left to the tender mercies of visi tors, who have laser so many cuttings from It that it is now barely alive. " Turnings. little to the left from the pub lic road, on our way to Ahe Tomb, we found the man buildiiig, occupied by Julia ,A. Washington, the presendfiropnetor, and also the house er huts used by his servants, in a state of very good preservation ; and though principally of wwi igl. thud standing in AS ex posed situation, a few hundred dollars laid ontin repairs at the present time, would, in all probability, save tlhem forgenerations to come. " Passing down the road leading from the house to the river, our attention was attract ed by a large sign erected over a small rick ety shanty, directly in front of the Tomb, which WAS painted in the Egyptian epitaph ic style, and which, after some little study ing, we translated as follows : LIKIIN6SB63 Or PIRSONS TAZAN with the TOMB •OF WASHIN &TON • for a back ground, for 25 cents. And we were informed that the proprietor of the estate receives from the proprietor of the dagtierrean - eidahlisfurriint - the aim of one dollar per month for the privilege of carrying on his business in thii locality. " There are between thirty and forty ne groes located upon Mount Vernon, belonging mostly to the magnanimous proprietor, who derive'a miserable sustlnence by coltipiti , ng a small piece of very unproductive land, fishing, and' sponging' yisiters who *pen to be to dull as to be taken it hy their eun ninglrd knavery. The destructive propen. city of these same darkios is truly wonder ful ; fur while two or three of the small fry were busily engaged in scraping the mortar from between the bricks of the tomb, their BELLEFONTE, CENTRE COUNTY, PENN'A., THURSDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1858. elder and more sedate companions were em ploying themselves by cutting branches from the trees said shrubbery ; which sur round the tasting place of the mighty dead, for the purpose of making chairs, cabis;and fancy articles, which they dispose of for a mere trice to strangers, each ono of whom ; as a matter of course, must : carry away some alight memorial of they visit to * the tomb of Washington. , 4 Thee desecration of this most are spot by visitors, and servants owned' at Mount Vernon, as described.abOve, is being carried on wall the full knowledge of the present proprietor ; and We would urge our readers, as. far as their ability will alloW,to aid the ladies of the Mount Vernon associa tion in their undertaking, for the allbouer the estate passes into other hands the better it will be both for the value of the property and the honor ,of the country." Sidney Smith on Sunday Observance The eccentric and satyrical Sidney Bwlth, was never charged with being "unto-righte ous." But there are veins of deep and no ble thoughts in his papers, which it were well if some who, are quite ready to com mend his wit and laxity of opinion on a few subjects. would resort to take. Take the following impressive utterance as to the val- 41f ilia.Saibtairtla— -- "I must suspect the virtue and suspect the religion of that man who ,imagines he can attain the quality or the excellence, without submitting to the rules nod prac tices by which the excellence and the quit ity are found, to be attained—uho believes ho can be a good Christian without Sabbaths and without prayer, and reach the end Is 1111. out submitting to the means . and means, rim - lends r. not only sanctioned Ity the expe rience of men, but emanating from the will of Clod, reduced to a positive command ment—one of the lawg oldie pillar on which all Christian nations have founded their re ligious wages ; and if ‘re did not under. stand (tie reason of the law. what _matter ? if it is the low ? But who does not feel the reason of the law ? Who would hesitate one moment for an answer, if I wore to ask Lim %Jay Sabbath wits instituted To stop that oblivious creature man, in his headlong pursuits of pietism., and of wealth , to tell him that his soul is immortal ; that Christ came down upon earth for his redemption ; that the heavens above are spread out to receive him ; in stop him ashen he is,aequinng, and to tell him to look into his own soul ; to atop him when he is enjoying, anti to warn into of his salvation ; to suspend his contracts, to ar rest his Bcheineti, to calm his emotions, to quell Its hatreds. to burst into his soul nab the splendor of Got's truth 3 and while lie is making paltry acquisitions, and panting after foolish pleasurvs, to open to hint the heavens, and to show bun the throne of God and to open to him the earth, and to show him the depth or hell, and to broach to him temperance and rogliteoutiess, Pod judgement to come " Why Should Mon Swear I I can conceive of no renson A Li he should but of ten reasons why he ithould not • rt... mean.

A young man, named Power. residing at C'estlecomer, went a few evenings ago, to fly, what ho termed a Spanish Kite, of very large dimensions.— ll•ving adjusted the cord and tail, it rapid ly ascended with a brisk breeze until it had taken the full length of the cord, which had become entangled around l'os er's hand.— The wind increasing he was drawn a dis tance of nearly half a utile in the greatest aguny, the cord cutting to to the bone.

LIP'S 6/ GALITZIN —Richard M. Arecibo, Esq , one of the most distinguiihed litera tures of western Pennsylvania, is now en gaged in writing the life of Rev. Galitzin, the original settler of Loretto, Cambria County. There is material enough, and an abundance of varied incidents, in the life of one who renounced wealth, hereditary ti tles, and thie comforts of a home among Crowne4 heads, to' live and die on the wilds.cf the Allegheny mountain in the ca poorly of an humble priest, to make a 'most interesting volume. There iS perhaps, no man-living better qualtited b be Galitzin's biographer than Mr. M'Cabe, as he was per sanctity acquairled with the man, has a re tentive memcfry of events which transpired half a century ago, and has access to papers to aid ham in oollecting facts. The biogra pher is not a Catholic, and will,, thfore, not produce a sectarian work, but o nes Well will be entertaiping ,to all soots and denom inations. and ospeAtilly those who e 4 rime the self-denial and devotion of one who was ominently_devotett to the service of God.

We be lieve that the powers of our political enemies culminated at the recent election. U. is' a very poor politician who keeps out of vie* the great recuperative power of the Demo cratic party, and supposed that -because it was defeated this year it. would be next, and that it cannot recover from present protestation in time for the next Presiden- tial eLeetroti It .0. 1 1 iecovor—qt is already recovering from referses that are more ap parenttlian,real. W heye yet tv in ct thb first Democrat who is disheartened, at the result of the election in this State. They all regard it as a temporary reverse, sure to be followed by victories that shall re-assert the supremacy of the coneersative enetdeni oeralic elements of the country. This spir it is universal Not only is it inspired by the deep consciousness that the Democratic pottorratight, 6.t also by the evident ina bility of the hostile fragments to agree upon I a common policy or stand upon a common platform, The effete to unite all those hostile to the Dediocratic party will inevitably consolidate and re-unite it. The presure from without will close up the seams, and it ield the yarty Irro solid comp77:lll;i7T;rt these hope o'herwise abandon their delusion iin , sl see how hopeless are their own prospects"— The victory of the Opposition has taught the Democracy the necessity, of the closest union-- and they will pt ofit by the lesson. The apparent success of the Republicans is delusive: They have gained nothing since 1856. They have gained nothing in New England because they posseesed all befel). The great men of that section--the ETRRIITTS, the WINTIIROPS, the CROATRII, the LAWRZSCSS—have bet n driven into ob scurity by men of a moaner sort and baser metal—the Witsosit the lIANLS, and alb 111/111.INGARES—the loudmouthed bletherers to a vicious and narrow sectionalism. We had nothing to expect from this quarter, where the best and purest men have been driven in politiesl obscurity by the more moiety and shallow demagogues, and we have lost nothing. The Ropublieetee /sere gained' nothing in Few York since 1856, but they have lost, and the Democratic candid ite for Governor polled 30,000 more votes then did Jeers lirennsert.
