July 20, isd “Away, Away, to the Monn&in's Brow.”* i : •' A thoroughly original book—original in wanner aa well as matter—ia'-i great noveltv now-a-daya. ’ Hero Is OHS,; however, putting Science in the nvoat attr»c|lva form, tVottt thu pon of Dr. itafikloh, of Ijfee*oii,. whioh Lay long been promised, and \rill not disappoint the public.' r„. ‘1; Jl mountain book, treating of’« The Moun tain,” written by a man wife; first drew breath nmong-tho mountains of out* soypretglj Ponn syirflititk, whd has had mpdbtiiini.di-hit bead all ’ bis liib, )or yoars (aS a gebiojtttt oF Ibo a dissector of mountains, and, 'os a physician, a pleader for mountains In general,' but especially an exponent of the high, claims of the Alleghenies of Pennsylvania to afford a retreat where sickness can be phanged into health, and health become ypt mere tIUI. It was mainly owing to .Dr. > Jackson that Acts of. Legislature were pasgod, incorpo rating a Health Institution, founding a Museum, Library, and Obsemtory, and providing other facilities for the scientific observation and study of Nature.' In conneetion with" this,- before and afltt, the mountainous - region Was ex plored; rocks examined; springs analysed| climate observed; trees, flowers, mosses, birds, fishes; insects, and reptiles catalogued. We say before , for ,Dr. Jackson was one oi the' State Geologists who labored lor years to col lect and classify information which, with scarcely a.public acknowledgment, wot &p -pfopflatcd by Pt-ofessor Rogers, now Of Glas gow, who has thereby built up no small repu tation as a man of Scienco, leaving each of the real workora to say ‘‘Ho. ero feoi, tulit Horen bonnrei.” Wo say after —because much of what was thus acquired, and a great deal which could not ho “ appropriated ’’ as above-mentioned, has been fermenting in Dr., Jackson’s quick braitt, and its essence here distilled over into this book of « The Mountain.” A- curiously characteristic book it is, breathing 1h? Very temperament as well as the intellect and knowledge of the writer. Always eloquent, full of instruction, often conveyod in aqnaint Jacksonian manner, it may sometimes Startle but will always instrnot the reader. At times, we have wished that Dr. Jackson lued cut a third of it out—but that would take away the personal expression and feeling which pervado it, so, let it stand. Seduced to a didactic treatise, it would not be half so good as if is. The Mountain” opens with a Word to its Subscribers, which is an apology, in the Doc tor’s own, odd way, for the delay in pnbiiea tion—as the hook was promised three years ago. Bnt, a distance of 260 miles from libra ries to conrait, Dom compositors to pnt Irre gular manuscript into type, and from all fkei lities of correcting proofs, will oxcUse much of the delay. For tbs test, hofe la the au thor’s own pleading; “Think of a country doctor 'practising medicine in two .firms, making fire-brick in one, sawing lumber in another, cutting cross-ties for a railroad in another, selling drugs in another, and-specu lating in'mountain lands and hniidibg'Heaith Institutes on his own hook, all at one time /” Ho adds: “Torn by distractions, bewil dered by complex functions, will you, sub scriber, pardon the delay in the appearance of the book, when you are assured.that some thing really nsefbl has boon attempted; some catalogue of facts,, oven if they are ftagi Uientary and Unfinished, some suggestions, howeVor crude and. inelaborate, have boon made; and that tome eancil waplnttoeb and prayors have been breathed (however;rin timsly, uncomely, and ungrateful to averted cats) fbr the well-being, especially of diseased and Suffering fellow-sinners ?” and'thou ho tells the pnrposo of his book: “ The real delir. ii.s been to got .rome'Jung of the natural science of that place of th« venerable spheroid (the earth) called the Alleghany Moun talq, made more general!; known to men, also to try to introduce some of ite metaphysical elementa into the recorded eonl of the world; bnt, abovo all, to assert Its i&nlUry oleime or powers to pro duo. health and hepplnen.” Following tho apologetic Word to Sub scribers is along introduction called “Prole gomenon.” Here is a little triok to decoy readers from tho yostlbulo into tho main on tranco. Had he simply called it “ Preface,” careless readers would have skipped it—but “ Prolegomenon” is a novol phrase to tbo tnahy, so they plutigo into it, to know what it moans. Tho Prolegomenon is more than a koto Pro. iaco. It is a sort of index.flnger, (tty) show ing the author’s track through the a sot of blazes on the trees, ruts of wheels, and so on—telling what made him ttko that track, what he lonnd, and what for food or evil, for pleasure or suffering, he experienced in the pursuit. Here are bis own worls: “ A village Doctor—the * fool of Jdeaa,* * poorly tied to a few thoughts,’ victimized by drenmi—dis covers himself to be violently seised and oortled irre • slstiblyawey by a number of despotic peneptlons and intenso oonvictlons; among which the wlf-sufti cienoyof the universe shone forth, and kbpeoially the RBVSDrit. poitoxs oflfatura, and her perpetual ly divine oonatus to restore and the ourative powers and medicinal virtues of tlimates, changes of localities, with accompanying changes of whole habitat, of a!r, Water, magnetism, heat and Ught, of all earthly and heavenly iofiuences upon the body, sanitary impressions of the world through the soul upon the tody, Of the aromal the spiritual, as as material and dynamls, powers of the earth, operating prophylaotleallysnd thera peutioally upon that darling of Fate, man: nnrslng mm maternally when slok, dandling him like a babe when well, and handling him like a toy per petually, streaming through him like as „«ollan harp, rather playing wjwwhim as l a strhg of tbo ASolianbsrpofthennlverso.* Bepnrsuesahaliuot nation of being an JEsohlapian regenerator of his raoo to a distant mountain-top, the great summit wave of the Appalachian chain,—a hydrographic axis between the waters of the Atlantic ooean and Gulf of Mexico, and more than two thoisand fcot above the level of the sea: where, sear s group of springs, surrounded by unbroken masses of primi tive forests, he locates, and founds by leral enact ment of the Legislature of Pennsylvania, a sanita rium, under the name, style, and title of the ‘Alle ghany-Monntain Health Institute;* the object of the oorporation thereby created being to purchase lands, to oreot and furnish buildings, to ornament and improve grounds, for the treatment of invalids, and for the enjoyment and amusement of others sooting recreation and health; also, to found a musenm. library, observatory, and other facilities for the study and promotion of the natural sciences.

There are blx chapters in Book L The first treats of tho Gedlogy of tho Alleghany Moan tain ; tho Second oi the Spll; tho Third oi' tho Waters; the Fourth of tho Flora; the Fifth of tho Animal Lite; and the Sixth of the Climate of,the Mountain. These sub-divisions aro treated with that force 1 and freshness which, when combined with 'oxtonijivo knowledge, make Geology n delightful, as it is a necessary, part of'Natural Scienco. The portion treating of Tho Waters of the Mountain appears to us a perfect treatise in its own fulness and completeness of inform ation. Hero, tho practical knowledge of the' author is veiy ably convoyed,, and this chapter iSamtidei of conciseness. It‘treats of-the* Mineral lYators of EehnsylVabia in Connection with Geology, giving their wholo history, with analyses. It especially treats of the minoril springs of Bedford, Huntingdon, Frankfort, Fayette, Bloomsburg, Bath, York, Perry conn ty, Carlisle, Gap, Yellow, Epbrati, Caledonia, Alleghany Mountain, and Brandy* wine* It also gives a eataloguo of Hinsril Springs of ihb uibited States and Territories,' Canada and New Mexico. In a \Vord, here the scienco of tho Geologist and tho healing skill of the Physician have united to produce this chapter, w.liich is worth all tho price oi the whole bo,ok.> The Flora and Fauna, as well as tho Climate of the Mountain, are also ably described—never before with any thing like the accuracy and fulness. Tho rural na turalist, who is inconvenienced by want’ of books, will find a very multum m parvo of in formation here. The peculiar idiosyncrasy of tho author shows itself in Book 11, where he handles the numerous armyof quacks without pity or ruth. Ho searchingly considers tho present status ol tho healing art, in tho hands of a properly In structed profession, and gives no quarter to ompirics and pretenders. The worst of it is there being no Index, which greatly needs such an aid. The table of contents presents a remarkable melange of names and subjects.

Pau, god of tho rural world, appears hero an oxponent of Nature's recu perative power of Life, of which Dr. Jackson is a believer and exponent. Lot us conclude this notico of an able book, tinged though it bo with some eccentricity of style and expression; by an extract (p. 232- 285,) which describes tho seasonal changes of forests of the Alleghany mountains in Penn sylvania, in a manner no less practical than true 1 “ The general aspect of theso forests, with their dfftorenfcohanges In tho procession of tho aoasons, must strike tho most oarelesa observer. Daring the winter they are stark and stern, the evergreon forests affording but a gloomy contrast, thoJr dark green foliage scarcely suggesting tho thought of life, while the oeaselesa moan of the cold and naked atoms spoaks only of death to the wolfish wiods. “ Occasionally, in the winter forests, a phenome non ocours of surpassing wonder. This is the sud<- den transition or transmute turn, frequently during the night, as if by some magioal power, of the whole foroßt of treos into a forest of glass. The mists, rain, and alt charged with moisture, invest the tree-irunks, branches, and twigs with aclothing of iee, dear as orystal, so that the woods seom in vested with an unrivalled splendor This glitter ing and phantasmal array must bo socn to be ap preciated or oonceived. “Tho phenomenon of tho boar-frost is allied to this glass metamorphosis. This is tho investment of oaoh finest fibre of the woods with a snewy crystalline, and sparkling volvet of frost, the air being filled with floating and brilliant spangles, detached by the slightest breath of wind. i “ The vernal change is most genial and striking. After the long death-Bleep of the winter, as is the oase in northern latitudes, the leaves and flowers, with tbo first tun-fires, flash ont upon the air with an endless succession of tints, forms, and outlines. The shades of green of the young foliage ate numerous, giving a different appearance to each newly-arrayed tree. Eaoh plant is pecu liar in the oharaoter of its new-born leaveft; sometimes, as in the oase of the baeoh, dropping from the twig a soft and delioate membrane that floats like a cobweb In the air; again, as in the oheatnutp hanging sullenly as if wilted; or, again, as in the oak and maple family, obtruding their moro angular leaflets, whioh stiok out rigidly from the terminal twigs. Eaoh tree has a form or physiognomy for its new bom leaf, also for tho perfect organ or full-grown leaf, and these different aspects show trees as en tirely unlike each other, in the different stages of unfolding, as the oallow bird in the nest is nnliko tho full-plumed and porfect adult. Even the grave overgeeens Assume a new countenance in the spring from toe protrusion of their annual growth of twigs which are covered with exceedingly delicate light green leaves, giving to tho tree, at this time, a gay and oheerful look. This fresh livery of the vernal forests forever Inspires with joy and hopefulness; for it is tho timo when tho world and the soul are full of promise.': With electrical .enchantment tho spirit of the woods teaches the spirit of the man, and he expands and vibrates with the budding and unfolding leaf, ‘ for man Is one world, and hath another to attend him.* “ The vernal sounds of the woods are also stri king and characteristic, appropriate and fit, as are all the hannonles of the wild.- The soft, young leaf has not yet arrived at firmness enough to rußtle or oreak, and the boiling, simmering, far-off storm and ooean-sound 1b not distinctly heard at this soa son. A soft, muffled whisper, a wavy, stifled mur mur, is all that the wind ean make, the delioate, drooping leaflet having no vibratory consistency, and consequently the accumulated sound is n sim ple. monotonous breathing of the air through the moist, sappy lungß of the forest. “ As the foliage is perfected, and tho summer change oomes on, the whole leaf-garment assumes an entirely different expression. The monotonous dark green of the fully-doveloped summer dresa of tho trees gives the wood, with its different plants, a moro uniform aspect. In full array tho forest is oertainly rioher and grander in this display of the life-powora, but it laoka the variety of tho vernal tints The oolor of all the leaves gradually darkens in buo aB they are porfeoted for the execution of their work—the nourishment and recreation of the tree. This darkened tint is gradually increased as the leaf hardens and approaches its death-hour— the arrival of the frost. Some time before this, however, tho woods present, for an interval, a eamonesaof feature, as if the leaves were silently at work, and had no time to give tho phases of beauty, but were hurrying up the exeoutlon of their function to pass away into the sleep of death. At this time the full-grown, hard, stiffened leaves give to tho woods the sounds or characteristic eumtoer-voioes— that seething and singingwhioh is the result of Infinite friction and vibration of the hard, tnrgid, and perfectly developed foliage of all the trees. The roar of the woods, that great respire . tory murmur, has now assumed atone that cannot he mistaken/ and the storm-winds can ‘bowl with the t°loob °f all th'egods-’ The hour of dis solution arrive, a. the autumn appro&ohes. - At this floasou a ohaage oeours, the most extraordinary a l ’S',** 1 ®!

Letter from “Nox.” [Correspondence of The Preas.] ■Washington, July 24. Tho manifesto of tho Douglas National Com mittee, denouncing every attempt to compromise the Douglas and Breckinridge Democracy, in the strongest terms, has created the utmost consterna tion in the Disunion camp. ThO Constitution contains, every day, long artloles, accusing therein the Douglas men as being is favor of Linooln, whilst everybody knows that Mr. Linooln, should be be elected next {all, will be Indebted to the friends of Breokinrliige more than to his own party. - Mr. Baoh&nnn, who always hated the New Eng land States, and never omits an opportunity to ex press dislike towards them, Is now still more 1 enraged sg&inet them) elnco they have given suoh a flattering and enthusiastic reception to Mr. Douglas. His organ oalls it “ significant” that it is the Republican fitato of Massachusetts where the “ Little Giant” is thus honored; but it that Massachusetts is also one of the seceding States. Whilst Douglas is almost idolised by the people wherever he goes, tha ** honest Old Joe,” alias “ the -Marion of the Mexican War,” who is also travelling, cannot get up stoam enough to make the people “ bailer.” At first he was despatched to your olty, and thenoe to New York, where he surprised everybody by his “ eloquence and states manlike abilities.” The speech which he made at thrf Philadelphia meeting was indeed a capital one, and I wonder that, the “ Budget of F.uo,” or any other paper of ‘a jocular character, has neglected the opportunity to immortallzo the Old Hero. His friends here in Washington, perceiving that the exhibitions of their Morion would not “ draw "in the North, reoalled-him" ami, sent him “down (South,” to his native State, North Oarolina, ci- of course, that “ Old Joe” would draw large crowds, and that tho poople would halier.” But, alas! we'all know the truth of the saying “ that a prophet la not valuod much in his own country;” and thus it happened that even in North Oarolina >{ honest” Joe could not make the people “ halier.” The wire-pullers here ate in misery at the bad sucooss of their “ Marionettes and asoribe it to the secret moohinatloni of tho Douglas men. But the ” Young Major” is not more fortunate than the “ Old GoncTal.” The rcoeption of the luoky Kentuckian in his own State does not' ap pear to have been very enthusiastic. In Oincih. nati, where he was expected to address the office holders, ho'did not stop at All Is ho perhaps ashamed of the “ Danitea?” The ratification meet ing in Louisville was also a failure. In short, Fortana seems to have forsaken the luoky young Major. ; Thore are forty-nine papers in Wisconsin that support Douglas. Three are for Brookiurldgo. and two both for Breoklnrldgo and Douglas. The Postmaster Genoral Is about to issuo an im portant circular to postmasters, requiring, among other things, that in all owes postage stamps, and not money, shall be used on the pro-payment qf postages, and prohibiting the use of the rating stamp? in danoelling postage stamps. A neglect to cancel postage stamps effectually, or to post mark letters plainly, will be regarded as oatSae for serious censuro, If not removal, and all postmasters are required to report every instance of snob ne glect to the appointment office. Instructions are also to be issued in execution of the recent pro* vision of Oongress for the return of letters to the writers thereof when they ore not taken out of office by those to whom they are addressed. A Breckinridge and Laue Flag iu the Right Place* |For The Pree*.] Mr. Editor ; Among the numerous other indi cations of public opinion, during an excited elec tion OBtnpalgHj are the .flags or banners raised by the respective political parties at their various headquarters in front of hotels, and other place?. Adopting this si a criterion, the Breckinridge and Lane causo in Philadelphia oannot have taken very deep root, for there is searcely ono solitary flag bearing their names to be seen within the litnlta of tho consolidated olty. But there is one! I observed an account of its raising, not long slnco, published among the city items of our daily journals, , It is stretohed aoross Wharton street, at Front, from the publio house Of Mr. Hugh Barr. At tho time I read the state ment, my onrlosity was excited to know.tcAaf in fluence could have , been at work to have given birth' to suoh an eccont'riC movement. I well knew, however, that the device could not haVe originated, with .the Democratic masses. Yester day, business oalled me into, that section of the city, when the milk in this cCcoanut was satisfac torily explained. Mr. Hugh-Barr’s hotel-is lo cated li? Immediate proximity to the navy yard , di rectly opposite the adjoining residences of the Uhlted States navy officials ! On the tavern-sign stand the words: ” Government House,” Then follows a pictorial representation of the White Rouse, and underneath this is tho inscription-: “ The President's Home at Washington.” Is not this unmistakably true, that every Breckin ridge and Lane demonstration in PhiladelpbU, with scarcely an exception, oan be traced, with unerring directness, to the influence of the United States office-holders, with Buchanan at their head ? • 0. V. Q. Letter from Clearfield. [Correspondence of The Press.] Clearfield, July 22, iB6O. On Thursday last a meeting was held in tills bo* rough. As .it was announced that a Democratic Club would be formed, the Secessionists drammed up tbelr forces, and, .with the aid of some boys, secured the organization. Tho ticket -men then determined to make the Seoeders define their posi tion. L. I. Grans, Esq., offered a resolution, wnioh was In substance that all Democrats heretofore act ing with the party, or who may be entitled to vote at the next election, and who are willing to pledge themsolves to support tho regular nominations of the National and State Conventions, be allowed to vote for offioers for tho permanent organisation of the Club, and to become members thereof. This resolution was defeated, and tbe Douglas men then holding offioes withdrew. James H. Larrimer, ex editor of the Republican, was elected president. Mr. Craus was nominated for vioe president, but promptly declined, in a speech in which ho clearly doflned the position of the Douglas Democrats, and' the comae they.would pursue- The Douglas men afterwards organized a Club, and on the 21st adopted a constitution and elected officers', as fol lows: President. L. I. Craus, Esq.:-Vice presi dents, John Hlllburn and William I. Hemphill; treasurer, William P. Beck; recording secretary, JanesL. Morgan; corresponding soorelary, Wal ter Esq.

That all men on tho electoral tloket who decline voting for the regular nominees should be dropped end others substituted. •Tbe ticket Democrats are largely in the majority in this county, warm nnd enthusiastic in tbeir sup . port of Douglas and Foster. Their decided stand has struck terror into the hearts of the little squad of polltioians who siill gaze fondly on the brilliant luminary which, soTreinkingtbelow the horizon, they think hat grown in sine and importance.

That speech, reported - evidently by a friendly pen, appeared -in the Paris (KyA State Flag , and was copied, with the complimentary in trodootlon of the Kentucky editor, Into the Go{> vernment organ at Washington, (the Union,) MaV 5,1855. | ♦Previous to entering upon the support of Mr! Breokinridge, I would suggest- that you, es ocb» who would hold no compromise, parley, or terms with Know-Nothingism, interrogate him taitt passages in that speech. One of' these has all ready been brought to his notice, but failed to elicit a reply. It i%thus given:, t j “It was oatural tor a man to preter those'of hil own religious faith in voting, and hefaimself would vote for pup of his way of thinking In religion raf thor than for another, all other things being equal; jast as he would vote for a native in prefererioe fo a foreign-born eitites, other things being equal ” Yt would be ,at least Indelicate on my part tq enlarge on this suggestive text to you; but I briefly submit that tbe dootrine of Mr. Breckinridge, a| here expressed, if participated in; woold institutp not only a discrimination .between native andnAt taralized oltizens, bnt a denationalizing division between native eititens'of different religions Views; Tbe peeuliarly unfortunate* and un&eraooratio n*i ture of Mr. Breckinridge’s statement is enhanced by a knowledge of tbe time at which it wasuttered j and the contemporaneous history of his State gives it a thrilHngly sectional and proscriptive import} ance. v . ! Let me remind you 1 that John Rowan, Esq., was at that time solicited from eeveral quarters to be} come tbe Democratic candidate for Governor of Kentucky. He declined, and gave bis reasons in a letter to the Louisville Times, sis follows* - “I am unwilling, to peril toe fair prospects of the party by becoming their stAndard-bcarer id the next contest, for the simple reaikm'tnht my wife is a Catholic. I see that a respootable Whig paper (The Commonwealth) estimates; the num ber of Know-Nothings in Kentuoky at fifty thou sand ; and, ss I have been informed by good au. thority that no maa.wbohas « Catholic wife can be a member of that society, it is fair to preronie that they would not vote for a man so clicum] stsoced. If this-be true, fifty thousand cftfseni of Kentucky would say to me,; What tttofiglrjud are a native of Kentucky, and yonr ancestors were among the pioneers of this talr lamd; what though yonr grandfathers Lytle- and. Kewkfflost tbe earnings of their livefrrtbe first by tira torcq of tbe Indian, the lost by the money of the Conti-j nenUl' Congress—what' though they did toil on. fighting the Indian and’ felling the forest, der all these difficulties educate a portion of theft families, and that portion imt unknown or undisj tfngulobed in the histories of Ohio, Kentuoky, ana the nation; and what though you may be qualified to discharge tbe high duties of' the. office yea aspire to. we, fifty, thousand, of the poople of Ken tuoky, living happily around our hearthstones! won for us by the daring of suoh as you sprung from, are determined that you shall not be .Govcr* nor of Kentucky, Mr. Rowan, because your wife] exercising the privilege guarantied by the Consti-j tutlon of-the United States, -and the Constitution of evory State in the Confederacy, to worship GotJ as she pleases, la a Catholic It matters not to us that the ancestors of that wife were of those who landed with Lord Baltimore, and established the good old colony of Maryland, (to this hour the home of refinement and hospitality,) the first td Invite the religionists of Christendom to cotee and worship God according to tho dictates of their own consofenoe.” - ■ Surely this is a vivid and scathing commentary on.the extremos towhich polltioal proscription may be oarried on account of the religious belief of a man or a branch of bis family; and is a blttc ■ illustration likewise of that remorseless solicitude for a particular church or sect avowed by Mr Breokinridge. But in that same Cynthiana speech, there Is auo ther passage, which so far as I am aware, has no boon recalled to the attention of the Vide Presi dent It may very fitly be done by you, air, be fore you throw tbe energy of your brain and into the political balance for his elevation to’a still higher office. Indeed, your reputation demands this of you, as tnuoh as the Democratic party der mands an explanation of the passage as recorded'. “He (Mr. Breokinridge) here spoke of the diffif cnlty of ascertaining what the distinctive of the Know-Nothings were. Some principles of which they claimed to be the sole advocates hk also was in favor of. He was in favor of repel • ling foreign influence in our affairs. .He would not allow any .one to have a hand in tbe direction of our political machinery who had not a eotnmuj nity of interest with ourselves. In common tenth the Democratic party , and all the patriots m ttif land , he agreed with the Know • Nothings upon certain which he enumerated, and which tney arrogate to themselves as exclusive testa.” i This attempt to crown the Democratic party anq “all the patriots of the land,” yourself included! with the poison berries of Know-Notbineism, was oertainly as effective a way of killing the forme? in Kentucky or elsewhere a? could be suggested'. In this passage the,'speaker seems only-intent on disputing with Kuow-Nothipgism for the honor of sharing those principles ana tests whioh you in Virginia ‘denounced with snob' splendid frenzy and fortitude, Democracy Is dragged Into It only to bb made noticeable by the.ligbt irradiating the “ pro jects” and ” propositions” of that party with whioh you pledged your prowess, your patriotism, and their reward, to hold no compromise, parley, or terms. . } It may be said that Mr. Breokinridge never uttered the remarks attributed to bim by thb friendly Kentucky editor.
