collected under this title hil last reminiscences 41
travel, He has visited the Tyrol, Hungary, the
provincearof Ihe Danube, Syria, Palestine and
Egypt, andthis book is a summary of his i'ibsee-I
vations and.. Studies. Imagination, too, finds a
place in this book so full of. reality, popular legends
ate ingeniously intermingled with purely_ histori
cal narratives. We, could, cite many, but one in
particular has pleased me so much that I yield ;to
. the desire of repeating it.
.. I
. On the frontiers of Hungary, lived a young lied,
-rich, an orphan, free from ;ell guardianship, and
the absolute master of his actions. One evening,
at sunset, as he was - teturning to his castle,lhe
'paused at the road side to look at a troop of Bohe
miens. In the midst of this-wandering familY, a
'
young girl of fourteen was seated, slight, graceful
and of brilliant beauty, such as the fine figure' - of
Mignon appeared to
,Goethe. She was there,sitent,
;motionless, leanin - g on the grass, her head resting
on her hand, the last rays of the sun illuminating
the brown pallor of her countenance. To see, to
• admire, and to covet her, was one and the same
- thing to the young lord. To satisfy his fancyj he
_addressed himself -directly-to the parents, who;de
- lighted with so ' good an apportunity, exchanged
their daughter for in old horse and a few sheep.
This caprice, once:satisfied, iustead of declining,
assumed a serious Character. The young man
bad pasied buts few days with the Zingara, When
he resolved never to forsake her, and took her, to
air isolated. castle which he owned in Sclavonia.—
He soon wished to marry her. In vain did' his
family,and friends, oulearning thissingular scheme,
i
unite in endeavoring to dissuade him; all their re
, monstrances failed before his passion. He man-led,
and 'aimed himself more tender to the Zingara
- - -than ever. From the tent of her father the Zhigara
passedinto an opulent dwelling where all obeyed her.
She had a young and - handsome husband, wholly
• occupied by attentions to her; assiduous', ser
' 'rants , horses and carriages; yet she was a prey to
a profoand melancholy against which the ' airily'
struggled. Her husband watched her with anxie
..
ty, questioned her tenderly, and asked why she
sangno longer as on the day when he saw her for
• •the first time' why her large black eyes had, no
longer the same lustre? why her lips were no tont
as red, . Then' she looked upon the field's an
wood.s, tried -to 'smile, and smiled sadly.
I NIT
' her husband left her to go to the 'chase, she ssed
long hours seated at the window, suffering her I
eyes tit wander at random from the plain ao the
'sky, and from the sky to the plain, listening to
;.:the noises, the confused murmurs of the country,
and caught herself weeping she knew not why.
One day when her husband was launtiOg, anti
- -.she was seated :Ilene, plunged in a melancholy re
- verie, she suddenly thought she heard one 'of the
-• cradle songs of her poor and wandering infancy_
Her breast dilated-6w eyes sparkled—she'cipened
the window iq a joyful tremor. She was not de
ceived-she recognized distinctly a voice she had
• never forgotten. A troupe of Zingari wastraver
sing the road a few steps from the castle.l On a
wagon loaded with bags and baskets was seated an
old woman in rags—it was her mother. Men with
bronzed faces and brilliant eyes escorted the con.
, - yoy. One of them, younger and gayer than the
ethers, held the ;client in his hands, striking its
' — itinids till they vibrated, while he sang in a joy.
ous voice, one of the popular romances of the tribe.
"The wind breathes over the hedge, the - moon
, dances on the waves, the Zingaro lights his fire at
the foot of the forest.
"Free is the eag in the air, free the salmon in
. the river, the stag in the forest, freer yet the

"The untamed horse leaves not his green prairie

not her freedom for robes of silks or collars of
ducats.
";Young girl, wilt thou tarry in my dwelling?
I will give thee pearls and diamonds, a bed Of pur
' .ple and , a kingly palace. •
"My, pearls are my white teeth, my diamonds

in the shade; my bed is the green earth, my palace
- is the world.
"Free is:the eagle in the air—free the salmon
in the river, the stag in the forest—but freer yet
the Zingers , in the field."

sailing over head, recover their savage instinct,

• ' lake where they swam in - peace, - hardly had the
Zineira heard the first words of this song, than
she darted from the castle.
When her husband returned he sought for her in
i
- vain n all the:apartments and in the alleys of the:
park—no one had seen her go out or knew what i
had become of her. He set out on 'horseback. i
Scoured the country in every direction wandered
• . far without finding any thing, retraced. his steps,
and finally, after three days of anxiety, grief and
fatigue, halted on the border of a clearing where
the Bohemians had - pitched their camp,
Nigat hayl, come on ; by the light of abrushwood
fire tended-by a child, he saw a young igirl, seated
apart side by side. Guided by the instinct of his
heart, he glided creeping through the foliage and
approach the solitary couple noiselessly. It was
his wife whom the guitar-player held in his encir
cling arms, and who, while she received his kisses,
told him of the mortal tediousness . of tier life at
the: castle, and repeated the chorus of 'the song:
"Frie is-the eagle in the air, free is the salmon
in the river, the stag iu the forest, butlfreer far the
Zingiiro in the field."

CASE OF SOMNAMBULISM
Altogether the most interesting case of Som.
'immbulisin on record, is that of a yOung eccicsi.
astic, the narrative of which, from the immediate
.
communication df an Arch of:Bordea x
given under the head of "Somnambulism," in the
__,French Encyclopaedia. This young ecclesiastic,
wheit the Archbishop was at-the same seminary.
- used to rise every night, and write out either ser-
Awns, or pieces of music To study,his - condition
the, Archbishop betook himself several nights to
the chanther. of the' young man, where he made
the follawing observations: The young man used
to rise; to, take paper and to write. Before he
wrote music he would take a stick and rule the
•-• lines withit. Ile wrote the notes,ltogether with
-the words corresponding with them, with perfect
-correctness. Or when he bad written the words
too wide, he olteted them. The notes that were
-. 'to be black, be filled.in after he hactcompleted the
whole.. After' completing a sermon, he read it
- „,- ; : - aland front be , inning to end. If any passage dis.
i _ pleased him be erased it, and wrote the amended
passagevorrectly over the other;. on one occasion
he had to substitute the word "adorable" for " di
-;.vine,"'hut he did not omit to alter the preceding
s'ce”.into "cet," by adding the letter "t" with ex
act precision to the word first written To ascer.
taro -whether he used his eyes, the Archbishop in.
tetposed a ‘ piece - of pasteboard between the writing
and his face. Ile took not the least notice, but
-:,.:.went on writing it before. The limitation of his
:::perceptions to what he was thinking about was
very.eurious. A bit of aniseed cake that he had
-:sought for, he ate approvingly; but when, on an
other occasion, a piece of the same cake was put
in his mouth, he spat it out without observation.
• - The following, instance of the dependence of his
-- pethentions upon, or rather their subordination to,
his preconceived ideas, is truly wonderful. It is
-
to, be observed that he always knew when his pen'
had ink otr it.. Likewise', if they adroitly changed
-IMO papers when he was writing, he knew it, if the I
'._sheet substituted was of a different size from .the
"-.forinet;- he_ appeared ,embarrassed in that case.
But if the first sheet of Paper, which was substitu
- ted'for that - Written on;, was exactly the same size
with the former; be appeared not to be aware of
the change: And he would' continue to read off
- r his composition, from the blank sheet of paper as
fluently as whenthe manuscript lay before lam ;
:.• ..nay, more, he would continue hist corrections, in
'.,'..'troduce amended passage, writing it upon exactly
'the place on the blank sheet which it would have
ociupiett on the written

Domestic. Ilanufartares, kt
The Gazette says that the Democrats seem to
prefer the, prosperity of Manchesteeand . Liverpool
'to. that of Philadelphia' and. Pittsburgh; ” that.
"The Post, in its hostility to home manufactures,,
jumps at an idea, which, it regards as very profound:
that our farmers would have just as good trade
without a home market as with one;" and sums',
-up-with these , sage concluSionst—"lf you dinnit's
ish your home manufactures, bya partiality for
foreign trade and foreigri fabrics, you multiply
your producers, and thus cheapen the prices of
whatever is consumed All this again falls upon
the wages of labor. Upon the Baltic, they raise
wheat at 40 and 60 cents a bushel." And then he
very triumphantly asks—" Would our farmers like
to raise - it at that price here?"
The. Democratic party have asserted no prefer
ence for Manchester over Pittsburgh, orjor Liver
pool over Philadelphia. They have, on all occe
sions, contended for that course of policy, which
would benefit their whole country; and they have
not considered the interests of their country *ere
embodied in the mercantile wealth of Philadelphia!
and New York, the manufactures of Pittsburgh)
and Lowell, the sugar and cotton plantations of
the South, or in the hemp and tobacco crops , of f
the West. They have not thought that the eel
culture of the 'whole country (though by far the,
largest portion of our people are engaged in that'
interest,) was entitled to the - exclusive considera
tion and protection of the government; but have
believed that " the blessings of government, like
the dew of heaven, shOuld equally descend Upon
all." They have contended for such doctrines, as'
they-believed would accomplish the general dis
semination of good.
We have not asserted that the fanner "would have
just as good a trade without a home market s
with one." We asserted that, the population of
I our country being as large as it is, an immense a
mount of agricultural produce must be consumed
I —whether that population isengoged in manufac
turing _or' not ; and if every manufactory in , the
country were destroyed, these people mint live—
they might or might not become tillers of the
soil themselves. If they should do so, though '
the products of the soil would be increased, that ;
increase could not for any length of time materi.il
ly affect the interests of the country; for alt are
not qualified successfully to engage in such pur'
suits; and those who had no inclination thus to]
earn their living, would resort to something else.
Our assertion wu, however, that the amount of
' agricultural products consumed in the country,
was not increased by the mcre circumstance of a
large number of persons being engaged in manu
factures; but from the number of people in the
country. Our arguments on this subject need not
be misunderstood, by any man of common owe ;
and if the editor of the -Gazette, or any others of
his creed, find it necessary to mislead their readers
by giving a false coloring to them,
-and entirely
misstating them, we cannot be accountable foe
their want of honesty, or the lack of comprehen
sion in others.
We have asserted our belief in the dependence
of one class of the community upon anuther—of
, each occupation in life upon the other—and, assert
ling this belief it is not exactly reasonable, or cour
teous, or just—not in strict keeping with a high
toned morality—to assert that we are hostile to
domestic manufactures. No line , which we have
ever written goes to prove any such hostility. All
our associations in life,—till our public and private
efforts, Late been, .on the contrary, directed to an
lelevation 4f the condition awl feelings, of those
who, like 'ourselves, are obliged to labor 'in some
Ihonorable way, for a subsistence. Our efforts 'have
been and shall ever be, to point out to those the true
path to happiness and honor—in the preservation
of their independence
_as men, and as citizens.
These constitute the mass of our countrymen.—
With these must stand or fall her liberties. We
therefore contend for these and their rights; in op.
position to the arrogance and tyranny of the weal
thy capitalist, whether banker or manufacturer;
and we leave to the editor of the Gazette, and those
of similar political faith, tie task. of. supporting,
monopolies and monopolists; the oppressor, instead'
of the oppressed ; the strong, instead of the weak il
the man of wealth,' and power, and influence, in-
I I
stead of the humble sons of toil, who,,when the I
time of trial comes, constitute-the bulwark of our 1
country's liberty. .
The editor of the Gazette may not be aware of
it; but we assure him that he need not go as far
as the Baltic, to find wheat raised at from 40 to GO i
cents a bushel. In 'our own country, at a distance I
of from five to fifteen miles from several- of our l
finest Western rivers, the sturdy' armers have told
us they would be well satisfied if they could al
w.,ys get 50 cents a bushel for their wheat; and
that 3'7 cents a bushel will pay them for raising
it and taking it to market. Although an argument
based upon the *ages of Europe, is certainly not
good for our country; yet it Would seem that, if
the farmer of Illinois, of lowa, and Wisconsin, can
pay his farm hand from $l2 to :$lO a month, be
sides his boarding and lodging, sell - his wheat at
50 cents a bushel, and make money at that L.--he
will not be, likely to relinquish' his:business of
farming. And how very important is:it to us as a
~
people, to know; that, in a conntly . Where every
man may sit" under his own vine and;his' own fig
tree"—where every industrious man may become
the owner of a little homestead:—Where labor al
ways receives an approximation towards aniade
quate reward—even in this Tree country, the farmer ,
can Compete with the princely , owner of almost
whole countries, who grinds to the dust the poor
in his employ.. -The farmer ot 'Western Penneyl-
Vania may not be able to raise:wheat 'nt 40 'and6o
cents a bushel; but we well 'know -that he makes
no more money at hiss - advanced priae,:thimotTly

GEN. CASS AND THE CHICAGO [...
VON.. •'' I
. I bavareturned once more tothe region of news
papers. Through all' the far West - where.l have
been, I have seen nothing bht their iciest papers,
excepting occasionallosa NeW York weekly paper.
In looking overtire papers here ,. . 1. see . there has
beeriquita an 'excitement - produced through the I
country - by the', letter-from Gen ,Cass, which was
read at the Chicago Convention. Thereis an ef
fort to make it
,appear: that.Gen:Cass;,iis not friend-
IY tq western interests: - Iskre'ihese - ei l iitors, -, letter
writers and delegates,' ignorant of the fact that hr
I advocated anOmted for the bill.of the teat session
I for the improvement of the navigation of lakes
I and rivers? and thathe has, at all- imes, used his
'exertionifto adsiance the growth andProspirit?of
the west, with 'the history of whichibis laborious,
and eventful life is identified? No They were
not ignorant, Of these facts. They. kn‘W them
I welt, and did not need intorniation as to his views.
I But there were a great many at the' onvention, as
there are through the country, who wanted to op
-
I propriate all the warm and ardent feelings newest
ent people to Corwin, or. some otter one of - his
[ class, for the presidency, and who, would gladly
have used that great convention ta, fiirther their
views. This feeling showed itsetilin the attempt
1 1 to set aside the report of the nominating commit
tee,' by substituting the name of Thomas Corwin
for that of Judge Bates, as presidin officer, in the
indecent interruption of Mr. Field during his elo.
quent and dignitied 'remarks, and in the coarse and
unmannerly reception which was given to the note
of Gen. Cass. And who were those who, it is said, I
, laughed in derision and sneered eit the _letter of I
Gee. Cass," saying that he bad nolsympathy with)
the west ? They 'came, many of them from afar,l
and many from neighboring - citie s . They tame
in floating palaces; reclining on lcushioned otto
mans, lounges arYtete.atetes, faiii g sumptuously
at the table, and having good Isiis at night; and
they were regaled, with music an dancing, and
very pleasant company by the was'. It was thus
they came to serve the west, ' and they are to be
commended for coming under these favorable
circumstances, and thus showing their. sympathy
for the interests of that great and groWing region
But they should he just. Let tht gentlemen who
sneered" at the note of General Cass, and who
are trying to make it appear that Ihe is not friend
ly to western interests, look at one of the marry
incidents of his western life.
When he was governor of 3. ichigan, pr the
INorth West Territory, there Came to him at Green 1
Bay intelligence from every quarter that the Lodi- I
aria in hostile array were threatening to annihilate
the few wilds men in those regions. The general
'started immediately in a Mackinac boat, with I
some halt dozen French voyageurs and a major al
the army—l think it was Major Forsyth. Thtyi
went up the Fox - river, and arms to the Wiscon I
sin, down that long riser to the a ississippi, thence I
ta the Illinois, and up the Illinoil it and over land to
Chicago, visiting every,tribe and
nn
settlemen II
t '
in that extensive range; and by is lectern! influ
once with the Indians, the gen ral succeeded in
quieting all hostile feelings, and flaying the fears
of the affrighted whites. At one, place-a young in-'
dian raised his musket to shoot I the general, but
an old one instantly knocked the rascal down.—
, They came up the sluggish Mils in August, and
is dreadful het August it was. very one
- of the
voyageurs became sick and gavo out, and General
Cass and the major were the only ones able to do
any thing when they reached Chicago. The place
then contained only six or eiglitkvhite inhabitants.
I It was on this very spot—ahere, be rested at that
time from the toil, privation and danger of that
voyage of thousands of miles it an open boat and
on foot, a journey undertaken t save the lives and
I give repose to the early settler --it was here that
'the gentleman who came up a hist the corn:via
and luxuries of the Oregon, Ba tic, St. Louie. Sul;
tans, Niagara, Louisianna, EmPire, and other fine
boats," hissed and sneered" at General' Cass, as
not being sirliieiently friendly to the west! Man
is certainly a strange creature, and thoughtlessly
or maliciously does many a silly thing. Arodthis
attempt to create prejudice against. General Cass
seems to me of the most heartless arid foolish of
forts that could be made I - -
The general was engaged to deliver an address
at the commencement at Daitmoutti College, in
New Hampshire, in July, pod Could not attend the
convention. lie simply said sia. He, was nut ask
ed for his opinion on the objectti of the convention,
and therefore did not gist. them, supposing them to
be well known.
In one of his excnnsions in', a boat, at the head
of Lake Michigan, before that section of country
was settled, Gen. Cass and hie . companions saw a
singular sight ahead, which puzzled them far some
time to make out. As they appioachtil it, they
discovered it to be a deer and a wolf: The wolf
would drive the deer. into the water beyond his
depth, and, retreat himself to. the shore, and there
wait until the waves, Which were running high,.
forced the deer to the laud, when he would at him
again and drive him in. As The party approaches',
the deer had just given out exhausted, and had fat
len into the jaws of the wolf. - The party turned
upon the wolf; droVe hint off, and Ipsok the deer.—
They ate their supper t from i and slept under a
'tree there. On the very spot where they ate their
venison supper and slept that bight, now mantle

truth:—
It is idle to attempt to disguise the fact that
there is a decided lack of unity - of purpose and

Notice to Steamboat Pilots.—The channel of the
river below this city;'`says the Steubenville Herald
of the 18th, at the ripple, has been changed re
cently from a few rods from the Ohio side to near
the centre of the river The channel lias been
changed, owing" to an. unusual amount of gravel
which has recently been washed out of Wells run,
opposite the.ripple. We have been requested to
give this notice for the benefit.of pilots, as in con
sequence of a want of knowledge of this fact some
15 or 20 boats have struck there within'the last
twenty-four hours.

Mexican Cure for Rheumatism--A Monterey

The medical profession;

learned doctors have prescribed certain treat-,

the same opinion, and it is very difficult to find'
two medical authors who agree exactly, and equah
ly difficult to find two living practitioners who
treat cases alike. It is not to be wondered at in
the least, then, that the pra6tice of the medical
profession of Mexico should differ from that of the
physicians of the United States in some slight
degree. Having accidentally become acquainted
with an intelligent little puppy of the no haired
species, I discovered that the manner in which the
rheumatism is treated here, and as there is a vast
deal of that unpleasant , disorder in your city, I
deem it my du. yto fumilib , this remedy. Having
-missed my . little no-haired friend one morning,
search was made for him, arid he was found in the
hands of the monita riiineer; svho, knife in hand,
was about to sacrifice lijm to Esculapilis, all des
titute of hair as he was. He was proceeding to
split him down the middle to cure the rheumatism
in an old woman's leg. And this is a most com
mon remedy. They bind the dog upon !he affect
al part and the animal heat-extracts the pain. It
is needless to say that 1 rescued ray=
friend, expressing my decideirprefeitriee to 'trave l
him converted into highly seasoneirsiuSagesiespe
cially when some other remedy might answer as,
well. gete—As yob have very few no , haireddogs
in New Orleans, it may be proper to state that the
ugliest looking hairy curs will answer the same
purpose. . -

The same paper states; that great discord exists
between the regulars and volunteers in our army ;
and, also, that it appears from intercepted letters,
that Gen. Pillow and some other American chiefs

that Gen. S.cott's army would be destroyed, ilea.
