There is a polar.action established throughout the nervous system which connects with every part of the body, establishing and preserving a Proper balance of thealsotrical element, welch consti tutes health, and a disturbance of which causes disease. There are staidly but two conditions of disease—one Of inflammation, or positive; the other weak, debilitat ed, negative; and as Electricity contains these two condi-. lions in thesotion of the positive arid negative currents, all we have to do is to neutralize the disease and restore: proper healthy action.

The on announcement in the Athenaum, of January 14, is as follows : • "Sir Alfred Tennyson, Bart, is, we believe, the new Etyle ofour Poet-Laureate. The Queen hasten dored this choice honor to thegreat poet—en offering froth the heart, not tobidented, not to be postponed, and the great poet has accepted her 'ffiajestyos girt in the spirit In which it wan offered' to his accept- ance. Sir Alfred Is the first Laureate who has been actually created abaronet ; for the same mark of royal favor, made to Southey thringh Sir. Robert Peel, was declined on other grounds than those of either merit or ambition. But tne line of lite reit baronets is - already growing strong—Lytton, Lyell, and Teinirsbn being. worthy' successors to Waller Scott." ; The editor of one-of the British " Peer ages " wrote a letter to the Times, imme diately after ihe publication of the above paragraph, declaring that he had Mr. Tamissori's own authority to declare that it was untrue=the words are "that the report la ' wholly unfounded ;" but the tithe mum reasserts its original statement, and ' sists that the Poet-Laureate may now put f Sir ALFRED TERNITON.,. Baronet," upon his title-page. That Queen VICTORIA, a known admirer Of. TZNlRsoleo poetry, should desire to pay him such-a compliment as GEORGE the Fourth paid to WALTER SCOTT (who was the fret' Baronet created' iNhis reign), can readily be understood. Immediately after readinng that exquisite lyric, " The Miller's Daughter," VIOTORIA and her late husband, then occupying their marine villa in the Isle of Wight, within a few miles of TENNYSON'S residence, waived all ceremony and paid him a friendly visit. It wag the homage of station to intellect, the sovereignty of rank voluntarily placing itself at the feet of the royalty of genius. Stie, whom, in the words of BYRON, applied to her de ceased and lamented cousin, CHARLOTTE of Wales, the bride of a year, we may name as " the fair-haired daughter of the Isles," was struck with tenderness of the poet's song, and honored herself, as well as him, by hastening to thank him for It. Soon after, as all the world knows, she added iv pension of £3OO per annum to his salary and allowances as Poet Laureate : the yearly salary being 114:10; with a com muted payment in lieu of the butt of sack which was one of the hereditary per quisites of the office, and, we may well be lieve, not unacceptable to such jovial Laureates as " glorious JOHN DRYDEN," gossiping COLLEY °EBBE; and three bottle THOMAS WHARTON. In later days, a tierce of canary was substituted for the butt of sack, but when ROBERT SOUTREY accepted the office, in 1813, he consented to take a paltry - 127 a year additional to his salary, relinquishing all claim to the wine. It is understood that, when TENNI-sox was appointed, the Queen raised this commutation to the amount of his salary, also annually sending him a cask of " sherris" from her own cellar, as a personal compliment. Between sa lary and pension, therefore, TENN - vson has a certain £5OO a year—a small income, in deed, on which to maintain "the dignity" of the Baronetcy, which is rarely con ferred on any person whose entailed, tates are not - worth 15,000 a year. When James L instituted the Order, in 1611, each recipient had to show himself possessed of £l,OOO per annum. Bat it is said that TENNYSON'S poetry has been near ly as profitable as SCOTT'S prose, and, being a careful man, neither addicted to purchasing land, building manorial resi dences, nor raising money by " kite-fly ing," as silent member and sleeping partner in an ill-managed-publishing firm, that he can count his savings by thou sands, _forty or fifty times repeated. In point of birth, too, Mr. TENNYSON is at least equal to SCOTT and BuLwER, for his uncle, Mr. CHARLES TENNYSON D'EYN comm., a member of the Privy Council, though entitled to one of the oldest Anglo- NO'rman baronies, prefers the less ostenta tious rank of commoner. If Mr. TENNYSON, notwithstanding • the .ilthencent ys reiterated declaration. to. the contrary, really has declined hereditary rank, it may not be altogether without a dislike on his part to be placed sis-a,vis with one of the latest creations of that class—in the person of the proprietor of the Age naum itself. That journal (notorious for its constant sneers at, • and injurious• and even occasionally offensive notices of, American authors and literature) , belongs to a certain CHAELES W. DILE; who, by dint of barefaced toadying of the late Prince ALBERT, during the getting up• of the World's Fair of 1851, and continuously from that time to the Prince's death, in December, 1861, obtained a sorb of inti macy with him, and after the grave had received his remains, wrote and published an article seriously demanding that he should never be mentioned, in speech or Print, except as " Albert the Good "—a bit of flattery which so much pleased the mourning widow that she asked Lord PAL MERSTON to make him a Baronet, which was wonderingly done. As the Atheneum (which is "The Asineum " of BuLwnn's satirical " Paul Clifford ") has notoriously been a wet-blanket upon literature, domes tic and foreign, during the last thirty years, it would not be surprising if Mr. TENNY SON had declined an honor also conferred upon. Mr. DiLxE, its proprietor. What the Athenaum calls "the line of literary baronets " it imperfectly cata logues by the three names of BIILWER LYTTON LYELL, and Tranrsox—sup posing I,he latter to be now on the roll. Surely, Sir Jonn F. W. HERSCHEL, created Baronet in_lB3B, whose astronomical sur vey of the Southern hemisphere, executed near the Cape of Good Hope, from March, 1834, to May, 1838, is one of the greatest modern achievements of physical science, ought not to have been passed over by Sir CrrAirrzs BoixE! How had Sir FRANCIS BOND HEAD, created in 1838, and memo rable for his " Rough Notes of a Journey across the:Pampas," and his instructive as well as amusing " Bubbles from the Brun nens of Nassau," offended, as to be un named ? Lastly, Sir ARCHIBALD A.LISON, the historian, has won his honors by great labor, and therefore is worthy of what ever additional distinction mere title can bestow him. At no period in British his tory have literature, science, and art been so highly recognized by the Crown as during the last thirty years. The rank of baronet, which is hereditary, and there fore only a short step from nobility itself, may have been rarely bestowed, but knight hood, which is a personal honor dying with the individual, is borne now, in the British dominions, by over three dozen men who have distinguished themselves in intellectual pursuits Were there an. *Order of Civil Merit in England, as there is in Prussia, all these gentlemen would be members, and, not least worthy in such companionship, would be the author of " Enoch Arden."

Tha . droumstances attending • tied under were these : It. seems that Mr. Boykin had looked his store for the evening and proceeded tottae residence of Mrs. Hill, wife of his employer. He remained there lentil about aquarter before ten, when he walked down towards his residence on Bate stilloa'. 'When he was turning a corner a pistol-shot w e rtearcl, and 'that is all that is known of the mur d .•" - 1118 body was found a few moments afterward, w,-ated lying in an easy position.

'His body was brought to the pro ! vsfettunarshaVs , office, 'Where it remained until Waresday noorywhen it was removed to the resi dents". of his family. There are two theories con neetashwith the shooting, the first of which is Mien lous, as the facts In theses. de not warrant any such omielinsion.- The first *that Mr; Beykitt was ion to gci'lM store for the purpose of having a flleahundred dcffar note changed. A negro was standing in the stole' at' the time; purchasing some goods, and clotely watched the movements of the gentleman, etireelaily after he showed the amount of money in bits' ptesesaion. - He followed him out, and no more wee theard of either of them until the dead body of thhireareichtsd man was found. His body was searched, and the money was found upon him; as was also his watch. Neither were • any of his papers disturbed. Felting that, notwithstanding all this, the negro in (maiden might have been the guilty party, search weamade for him, and after some trouble he was found; in a prayer meeting of colored people, his coated', and sweating away most lustily, • enticing mess to do good to their neighbor rather than ill. ' 'The ether supposition, and the undoubtedly true one, it this : Mr. Boykin for a long time has had °bane of one of the Methodist churches in Nor folk, Which, per order of General Shepley, has been' aimed in account of the disunion proclivities of its Members. The General at -the saute time allowed t Kr, Boykin to have the sole charge of it, and lease it to any loyal parties that might wish it for any re- Rjeleue purpose. A number of colored gentlemen Waited upon him some time Since, and requested the use of the basement for the purpose of holding religious meetings on Sundays, and on certain eve. Hinge of the week. The reverend gentleman kindly allowed them to have it by the paying of a small rental. A few months afterward the emigre gatentof the colored people increased to such an enormous extent as to warrant their seeking a larger place of worship. Acoordingly a committee waited upon Mr. Boykin, and asked the privilege of wor. - shipping in the body of the church. This Mr. Boy. kin respectfully refused, saying that his authority did not extend that far with the people of color. Another committee waited upon him, but with no different result. He received within the'following week two anonymous notes, both of which breathed "threatenings and slaughter." One note, as near as I can learn, was received on Wednesday Of bee week. There has been no direct evidence as yet to plate the guilt upon any one. Tho feeling against the colored population is most Intense, and were it not for the presence of the military, the sable rase would suffer in a most summary manner. A lad gave in his testimony, yesterday morning, before the coreuer's . jury,.in the following language: "1 wifift'elihking down Charlatte street, at about half past nine o'clock on Tuesday evening, and was met by two regrows, one of them very tall, and the other about medium size. One of the marrow put his hand In his pocket and stopped me. He looked me in She face and said, Well, I don't want you.' I then passed on. I heard the report of the pistol after I had gone about two squares further. The night was dark and stormy. I should not know either of the negroes if I should again see them. All the negroes in that neighborhood are supposed to have pistols." • This was all that the lad knew, and, although Very intelligent, he said that he did not know any* • thing more concerning it. • ' It is not likely that any more will be known con_ corning this mysterious affair. Colonel Mann, the provost, marshal of Norfolk, has instituted the most rigorous search. Double detective guards. are placed on the Baltimore boats, and it 18 believed that a largo reward will be offered for the detection of the murderer. I should have before said that the pistol was held almost directly against the face of the murdered man, and the powder Could easily be picked out of the pores of the skin of his cheek • The following Is the latest news received hero from North Carolina by last night's mail boat. The steamer Columbus, Captain Paine, was wrecked off Hatteras on the evening of the -Ist Instant—no lives lost. The Raleigh Conservative, of the 7th, contains the following in an editorial : "We favor recon struction ; that this may be effected a convention of the States and an armistice are recommended. The intense difficulties of the Confederacy are becoming positively alarming. Property of no kind is secure, and guerillas and bandits roam at will throughout the whole intelor. The deserters, who fcrmer ly [sought refuge in the mountains in the west ern part of North Carolina, have become em boldened at their great increase In numbers, and attack and overkower the guards left to-protect the people. Bushoesi of all kinds is suspended, and ' the inhabitants are fast resolving themselves into the primitive condition of savages. The North Ca rolina militia have. mostly laid down their arms, and are scattering themselves throughout.the State. So we-go, and we cannot help ourselves. A few days since our Legislature had submitted to it by Mr. Branch, of Titus, resolutions recommending a de legation to be appointed from that body, which should represent all parts of the State, for the pur pose of proceeding to Washington to secure terms of peace. The resolutions were laid over for future action." In another column the Conservative says : "We are in it now, and we must get through it the best we can. We never advocated secession from church or State h ood we wash our hands clean of the blood of our brethren." This, is- qttite moderate lan guage, considering that the Conservative was not known at the beginning_ of the war. The Golds boro State Journat has the following scrap of Intel ligence : "It is pretty aortaln that during the late Yankee advance up the Roanoke river twelve Yan kee vessels ascended that etream, and but six of them returned ; the other six were disposed of by the Con federate torpedoes.. And another thing is very cer tain, six hundred Ifkukeea perished by the explosion. Of Ids latter fact Ire have almost incontestable evidence. That will do for our torpedoes." So says this rebel journal ; but the facts warrant these conclusions, and only these—the Otsego was sunk, and afterwards destroyed by her crew. The tug Easley ran against a sixty.porind tor pedo, and was blown up, killing but three persons. Did we depend upon rebel journals for Items con cerning Federal losses we should long since have drawn upon our last man and dollar. The small-pox is raging at Newborn, and bids fair to carry away quite as many as did the fatal yellow fever in August last. It is the sickliest town on the entire coast. The steamer Allison was wrecked on the 22d inst. on the Chowan river, near Oolerain. Captain Gedney raw her ashore, and elthough saving the lives of all this clew he lost his fine steamer, which will prove a total loss. Deserters report that the rebel cavalry that have for so long a time been scouring the country around Newborn have withdrawn to Bickford, on the Wel don Railroad; where they have just gone into winter quarters. They picket as far as Reams' Station, on the west side of Hatcher's Run, with a division of General Hill's corps located on the Boydtown,plank road. Progreen in Liberia, (From the Waehteston Chronicle.) We have the pleasure to present the following in. tereetthg communication from a very intelligent citizen of Liberia, an Amerlcan.born black man, ands graduate of Queen's College, Cambridge, England. The African Republic appears to be in a satisfao tory- and encouraging condition. The emigrants sent by the Colonization Society In the Thomas Pope had 'arrived, and Protestor Freeman and fa nilly were in good health, and wilte residing in the college building at Monrovia. We presume that the gunboat to be transferred by our Government to that of Liberia, as recom mended by President Lincoln in his last annual message, will not exceed in size that of the French vessel referred to as lying hi the harbor of Mon rovia, As an, instance of our earnest desire to strengthen that Republic, foster Anierican oom• merce with the people and to suppress the terrible slave traffic this service is one of national Interest and humanity. Mosßom, LIBERIA, W. A., Dec. 7, 1864. DRAB. SIR The city of Monrovia presents just now a scene of unusual life and animation. Be. shim! the usual gathering .of legislators, which brings a. number of strangers to the capital from the several counties, we have the presence of quite a number of foreigners. Last Thursday two French minboata came lute the roadstead,' and' the day after a Swedish corvette followed them. The officers of these vessels have been on shore daily, and have been introduoed very gene rally to our leading citizens. The other day the young men of the town gave the Swedes -an en. tertafnment ; and' It was a very pleasing eight, near sunset, to see a procession of Swedes and Liberians, Interlocked, walking to the sound of music, to the water side, to see our guests off on their return to their vessel. The larger of -the the two Front& vet:Selo palled to-day to the leeward; UM smaller one is detained here for 'a Awn' time on 'Recount of the slokness of the crew:- Sunday morning she crossed the ;bar, came into "Meeenrada river, and anchored immediately In front of the town, abort forty feet frofh the front, street. . She is a beautiful little model of a venial, about sixty-eight feet In length, ten feet across beams, and draws about. four feet of water. She carries lour guns, and her company, ofiraere:find crew, is composed of thirty men. ,Our intercourse with these strangers has been most agreeable, and, in the case of the Swedes, it teems to have been fully reciprocated. The officers are a very lively and intelligent tat of men; one of :them Is an artist, and la taking sketches of our Scenery ;;the medical' officer is a graduate of the University of Upset, somewhat profloient fn botany, tolerably at his ease In English, well acquainted with Shakspeare, and a great admirer of Long- . fellow, whose translations from the Swedish posts have given him celebrity in Sweden. • The mayor of , the eity,-Dr. T. F. Moffitt, enter tained the efileers at a sumptuous and elegant din ner the other day at which were present the. Mai dent, -Vice President, and Dabinet came, ex- Prefildent Roberts,'the Speaker of the House of Beeresentatles,,and the professore it Liberia Cot age.

The arrival of these vessels has been an agreeable episode amid the monotony of tneamnon. During the trains comparatively but little labor can be' done, at . .AI life everywhere imour communities is dull and lifeless. But such , an event aathis causes much ac tivity, Mr tee demands of navel vessels for coffee, and cocoa, and vegetables, and meat, and fowls, and curiosities, are large. • I . hear that our people easily meet alt thaneeda of these vessels; and some of our,humbler citizens are reaping some solid ad vantages.

In three ortour of our,settlements the manufacture of cotton cloth by Liberian women is now a common einploy ment ; and at Washington's farm as attempt is about being made to establish a factory teethe em ployment of girls and young women. It would have gone into effect sometime since if looms could have been obtained In the country. Moreover, ex portations of cotton have already taken place, with much personal advantage. Thirdly' very large quantities of country cloths are continually being brought into the market 5 never before so many as during the last season. I shall try and leant from the authorities what were the numbers sold in this city during the-last twelve months, and give you the full items. Now, the question arises, What can be done to make alt this growth of cotton avairabie for the foreign mar ket ? •Three questions arise from this Ist. Shall trade, in such large quantities as to discourage native spinning and weaving, be thrown into the interior, so that the raw material may reach the coast I or, 2d, Shall attempts be made to improve the native manufaottire,so that finer doffs, with wider breadths, may come Into the market for the use of civilized people 1 At present , t: most native cloths are coarse in texture, and the pieces - manufactured are only -about eight Inches broad, which - are sewed together by the natives ..until they make pieces three feet wide and sf i feet long. Could not superiorp looms be introduced among them, and their manufacture be improved I or, Bd. If country cloths were exported In large num bers from this country to America, would It pay American manufacturers to take these cloths, rip Omni to pieces by machinery, and remanufaoture the cotton into fabrics for the foreign market The National Judiciary. [From the Washington Chronicle. ] When the Oonatitution was adopted, seventy-six years ago, the territory of the United States was bounded ny the Atlantic, the British (Monies, Lou 'liana, the Floridan, and had no access to the Gulf of hiexico, but through the dominions of Sporn, and the whole continent:of North and South America Was owned by Jour Powers—England, Spain, Por tugal, and our own . GoVernment. The only sea coast belonging to the United States was on the At lantic ocean, and the populatioawss not four mil lions, slave and free. The Constitution, no doubt, was made with reference to existing facts, but the Powers to declare war and to make treaties looked forward to a period when new territory would be ac • quired by force of arms, or by peaoeful negotiation. Our relations with Spain in regard to the Mississip pi made it certain that the first acquisition would be nom the territories of that Power, as it was amen. tial to our prosperity as a nation that the whole course of the 1 tither of Waters should be ours. The acquisition by treaty of Louisiana opened up two questions—first, the application of the clause relative to the government of the territory of the United States, which had been decided by the first Congress to authorize that body to establish come rations in the form of Territorial Governments, re gulating the public and private status of its inhabi tants by positively excluding slavery to this new territory ; and, secondly, to the admisaton of States formed out of it beyond our original limits. Both these questions, with the consent of all the branokes of the Government—executive, legislative, and ju dicial—were decided in the affirmative, and the Territory of Orleans was organized, and afterwards became the State of Louisiana. Oar treaty with Spain gave us Florida, which followed the example of Louisiana. Annexation by acts of Magmas gave us the State of Texas, and conquest and our trea ties with Mexico and Great Britain gave or con firmed our title to seventeen degrees of north lati tude and an undisputedposseselon of all the terri tory north of the southern boundary of New Mexico, and limited only by the British possessions. The Constitution has therefore extended and adapted itself to a nearly quadrupled area of terri tory, and to a population more than seven times Its original number. Instead- of no ships, it has given us perhaps the most efficient navy% in the world, an army of a million of men, and has ena bled us successfully to combat a most gigantic re bellion; and all this has been done by no narrow construction of our great popular charter, but by a necessary, an absolutely necessary, interpretation of the powers vested in Congress. What greater powers can any Government possess Man the great, leading, and distinguishing sovereign powers to borrow money, lay taxes, regulate commerce, de clare war, raise and support armies, and provide and'maintain a navy I Here are the sword and the purse united. The sword IS powerless without the purse—without money. Every civilized nation makes money, because when your debt becomes two thousand millions, it is 'evident that neither gold nor silver can become the medium of payment. of the interest, letting alone the daily expenditure of two millions during the continuance of a great war. The necessity, therefore, of other money— paper money, If you please—la established. The Supreme Court decided that Congress had the power to create a corporation to issue notes, and Congress exercised this power on two occasions and they have lately exercised it by creating national banks, with authority to Bane a national currency, secured by a deposit of registered bonds of the Uni ted Stataa. Their notes are to be redeemed in law ful money, meaning what are usually called legal tender notes. If there are not lawful money, then the banks have nothing which they can legally oblige their creditors to take, and the whole super structure fella to the ground.' Now, the Government has always exercised the power of issuing Treasury notes, and it may lune them In any amount, of any denomination, and In any forM. IL Is conceded that they may make them receivable in all payments to the Government, and that they : may oblige their creditors to take them in payment of their claims. „But it becomes necessary, in order to borrow money, to collect terse, to support armies, and maintain a navy, and to pay our gallant soldiers and sailors, to make thenCreoelvable in all payments between man and man, and thus give them the highest degree of credit which can be Imparted to paper. Is this not a ne• cessary incident to the power to issue I Hat, say the friends; of- a destructive construction,there is the power to coin money expressly given. That Is true. But what is the use of such a power when you have not t/te metal to coin 'I The present price of gold shows that this cannot be done. Carnage is a sove reign power, which is properly prohibited to the States, but it is useless to the Government In a OHM like "the present. The States possess no power to issue notes or bills of credit, and they are prohibited from making tobacco, rice, cotton, or land, or any thing but gold and silver, a legal tender. The people clearly possess no power to do any of these things, and therefore it comes back to Congress, as %power much more necessary than the power to create cor porations, to ,sane a national ourrency. The States evading the spirit of the Constitution have erected banks in which the State was the only Stockholder, and this has been held no violation of the constitutional provision. The State banks, over which Congress has no control, have suspended always in time of war, and often in times of profound peace, and flooded the country with irredeemable paper, which the States have legalized by anthoriz• ing the suspensions, sometimes on payment of a bonus, and sometimes without any conditions. In the war with England, a suspended country, where the notes of its bank were practically made a legal tender, our Government was obliged to sell their credit—their paper—at discount for the depre. elated suspended notes of State institutions. Is it possible, therefore, to contend that a national Gov ernment, with a phatlation of thirty millions, and a country nearly as large as all Europe, washed by two great oceans, with the largest rivers in the world, with noble, fresh water seas reaching Into lie Very midst, with untold mineral wealth, iron, coal, petroleum, emit, copper, silver, and gold in inex haustible quantities, cannot make its promisory notes, based on these enormous resources, lawful money In all the transactions of life, and a legal tender in all payments, whether of a public or pri vate characterl No says the strict constructionist, the money pharisee ; yen may constitutionally impair the obli gation of contracts, you may draft every able-bodied man in the service of the country, but you cannot oall your notes lawful money, although our policy may lose you millions,_or even place you at the feet Of domestic traitorsor foreign enemies. But we cannot pay our soldiers whom we compel into the ranks; we cannot furnish arms and ammuni tion ;we cannot even feed our armies. The answer of the pharisaical, hard-money devotee Is-..although there is no each language in any part of the Consti tution—Hum Is not, and never can be, any lawful money but gold and silver and copper coin Pat money in thy purse, as in the days Of Shakipeare, and still further back in the days of Lyourgus, must therefore mean only such money as, In ancient times, required a wagon always to accompany ire owner. But we are taunted by Englishmen, who forget that for nearly a quarter of a century they had no thing but paper money. Their loans were paid In depreciated paper_, and when they paid their subsi dies to European rowers or their armies in the field, they were obliged to use 11 to purchase the necessary specie. If they had not done this, adopted the neces sary Folio , of all civilized nations in times of great wars, they must' have succumbed to - the genius of Napoleon, the greatest soldier of any age. And can It be possible that this great Republic approaching the close of a great elan confliet, with every pro speot of terminating it successfully by the combined efforts of her gallant army and navy, should be de nted by any tribunal to .possess a power belonging to any other ebuntry, and absolutely necessary for our very existence assort, tit efiglaily of nations 7 FOUR, CENTS: ROW lenstalliee may fief Made by Teem • graph.

Among the most important of these lea change in some of the cha racters of the alphabet—especially the letters "a" and "c," which, airwill be seen in the renewing ar ticle, arose similar that they may be sometimes mistaken for each other, even by the best operators. Thus a merchant who desires a note "protected," may be rained by having the telegraph make hen say "protested." Under the oirautastancesaseenas remarkable that comparatively so few erroffil , are made, and their abantie reflects credit upartlthe profession. The Telegrapher, we may state in this Oonneolion, is a very neatly-printed and well-edited mont 7 f/y, published at Now York, under the auspices of Mgr National Telegraphie union. • The Telegraprter says : • We publish, in another column.. an article pulp-- Dished editorially In the' Scientol American some three-years since, and shall, in 'orsr next 198110, pub; lish a reply thereto, written at the time by Judge . Caton, of Illinois. The suit to which Ibis artfole refdril Vies brought" by a tam in New York against the American Tele.* graph Company for the delay of a message. The• tam were the oral:Mora of swan in Providence, R. 1. and failing to get their pay, decided to attach* Ills property; but, owing to the laws of Rhode Island, were unable to de so unitise the party .was absent from the State. Learning one day that the debtor was in New York and . would rattan home by the afternoon trate. the plaintiffs left a despatch It the del - enemas' office at five P. M., to be sent to• their lawyer In Providenco; instructing him to at— tach the debtor's property before ten orillook that evering, at which time he (the debtor) would cross the State line. The message was not dellvereduntil• - midnight, although its importance was stated, and an additional' sum offered to Insure its prompt trans mission. By this delay the plaintiffs claimed their • Inability to obtain payment of their acme:rot, and • brought the cult to secure pay therefor and the - costs, amounting in all to over $13,000. When the Scientijfc American speaks of the " repe• • • Wien business " as "a dodge to extort moneyon the one band, while, on the other, it seemed intowied to • act as a screen behind which the company may run • to hide Itself from the consequences of Its own gross. neglect," it Shows its ignoranoe of the internal• working of a telegraph o ffi ce. The "repetition bu siness' was adopted to protect the patrons of the. telegraph frem the consequences of their own-etre lemma and stupidity, and from blunders which it `ls impossible wholly to prevent. The careless man ` ner in which telegrams are written, by patrons of the telegraph, is a shame, and a grave satire 'upon our free schools. Manuscripts almost unreadable ' by the writers thereof are poured into the main office of the two great companies In this city in such quantities as to render it impossible for the receiver to read understandingly each message, and it would take a - platoon or men to translate them to the ope rators. To maintain the "utmost despatch," an op°• rater his; in many instances, to "jump" at the ramming or words of his copy ; for, to maintain" the • most" faithful accuracy," is to delay. an important Message an Indefinite time. We have looked upon • "Ibis repetition business" as an insult to the intel ligence of the operators ; but, when all things are coendered, It is, no doubt, a benefit to the patron. We quite agree with our ootemporary, that on its face, ..telegraphing alma as plain and simple as any of the arts men practice," but when it says : "Tearer is no more difficulty in writing messages correctly than there is penning an account or copy ing a letter,properly," we beg leave to differ. Teat it Is easy, for an operator to send a message correct-' ly, we cordless, but by the Morse system and••alpha bet, It la quite another thing to Mans receive one correctly. It Is partibte for words to go incorrectly over a wire, owing to escapes otcreases, but, we think, less errors occur from this - dance . than from the faulty character of the alphabet, Which when received registered upon paper it le difficult to die anguish "protest" --• _- - - .• - -' - • from "protect" - . - - —, as well as many other words,.where the letters of which they are composed are represented by id• miler characters.* The Scientific American is far behind the age when it asserts that " it is far easier for the telegrapher to take a proof of the Menages he Is sending than for a printer to prove his types." Long before the article In question was written, registering (Kobe) instruments were generally abandoned for the sins .ple purpose of securing "the utmost despatch and the most faithful accuracy," a perfection which the Scientific American, In closing, hopes for. Even ff an operator should take a proof of whatever he • transmits, it would be no proof that the.operator to whom he ie sending receives the message correctly.. Reading the characters by sound is far more accu rate than from paper, and nearly twice as expo ' onions. When the Scienti f ic American prevents the fa , wants from interfering with telegraph lines, or sac ceeds In building a Line proof against the weather and crosses and other interruptions, we will, on the part of the operators and companies, guarantee to make "many an individual bless (not curse) the hour that he ever entrusted his message to the tele graph." No one but an operator can nisderstand the terri ble difficulties ana vexations which their craft labor under, and these very troubles ought to be some palliation for their apparent stupidity. That there are many blunderimads in telegraphing we must, although regretfully, confess, but there aro otners Who are peers. f* It will be noticed that the letter c Can only be distinguished from the letter s by a small space be. fore the last dot.—Ed. Press. The IBncycllcal In France. The Paris antespondent of the London Tinie 3 writes as follows on Jan. 26 : The pastoral Instructions and the protests of the bishops continue to all the pagos of the clerical papers and to be commented upon by the others, though each time more briefly, for the task le monotonous. There is, indeed, little difference, ex cept in respect of length, between these documents. The language is more or less moderate, and °cos.- Sionally more or lees acrimonious ; but they all end with the same note—dental of the right of Govern ment to prohibit the promulgation of the Encycli cal, and unqualifled adhesion to Its doctrines. T he Archbishop of Bourgee winds Up his addreSS with the formal declaration that he and his brother bishops can employ no other language than that of St Jerome to Pope Damasius "I speak with the successor of the Fisherman and the disciple of the Cross. lam united heart and soul to the Chair of Peter, because I know that upon that rook the Church Is built." He adheres, then, fhlly and entirely to the Enoy olical. He condemns all the errors which it con demns in the same sense and In the same manner in which the Pope oondemns them. In this instance and in all others he recognizes but one judge of the Faith, but one authority in doctrine—namely, the Church, and the Church declaring its will by the month of Its Chief; and, with St. Augustine and EOSsuet, he repeats : "Rome has spoken—the cause is ended. We love unity, and we glory in our obe dience." The Cardinal Archbishop of Bordeaux, who had written to the Popo declaring his "profound and unalterable devotedness ' has received a cordial re ply from his Holiness. Among the other letters ad dressed to the Minister of Public Worship is one from the Bishop of Algiers, "protesting temperate. ly but firmly," against the measures taken by the Government. The pamphlet of the Bishop of Orleans, however, attracts more interest than all the epistles of the other bishops put together, owing to the undoubted talent of the writer, and the liberal views he former ly held on these matters. Ile has pointed out some sixty errors in the French translation of the Papal document, and certainly no one can do more than he has done in explaining away the more obnoxious parts of the syllabus, extenuating them by fine die- Unctions between things that are oontraryand things that are contradictory, and interpreting what the Pope really meant. All his logic and all his skill as a controversialist fail however, to alter the leading thought of the Encyc lical—that the liberty of con science is the height of 'madness. When it comes to mere retort the Bishop puts forth his usual 'vigor "What. has become of your own liberty, Task you 1 Fo my part I have a horror of violent revo lutions, and my study of them has penetrated my soul to its very depths, and yet I affirm loudly that I am of those who have confidence In civil and po litical liberty, and who still hope for its pacific pro grew] in my country. lam of those who sincerely work this laborious experiment, which Is the danger and the glory of the nineteenth century. Bet we must be modest. Is this experiment concluded Has it succeeded I count- in my lifetime ten revo lutionsi_and in my diocese six opposite parties, at least- we read every day in the newspapers that the smallest liberty Is a danger. The strongest of Governments in tee most compact territory does not venture to allow twenty of its citizens to meat, nor three bishops to concert together, nor a school for little children to be opened without great diffi culties, nor a Papal bull to be heard from the Ups of a priest; and we are in this position seventy-six years after 1789, and the famous principles of that year are still in many respects an ideal, ranch res pected, no dOtibt, but never applied." The bishops of Anton, Meaux, and Lucon have addressed lettere to the Minister of Public Worship, in which, like many of their brother prelates, they complain, but in measured language, of the deci sion of the Council of State prohibiting the publi cation of the Papal documents by the bishops. Queen Victoria on nailroad Accidents. I I VI t i~' r 11. The London Times of the 27th nit. oontafrut the folloWing : At. the half-yearly meeting of the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnohlre Railway, held at Man chester on Wednesday, the chairman (Mr. Watkln, M. P.) said It was a gratifying reflection that the Sheffield Company bad carried Its passengers with a remarkable immunity from accident, and he men tioned this more particularly because her Majesty the Queen had written to some of the railways cen tred in London, as follow: "Sir Charles Phipps has received the commands of her Majesty the Queen to call the attention of the directors of the to the increasing number of accidents which have lately occurred upon different lines of railroad, and to express her Majesty's warmest hope that tho directors of the will carefully consider every means of guarding against these misfortunes, which are not at all the neces sary accompaniments of railway travelling. "It is not for her own safety that the Queen has wished to provide in thus calling the attention of the company to the late disasters. Her Majesty is aware that when she travels extraordinary precau lions are taken, but it is on account of her family, Of those travelling upon her service, and of her people generally, that she expresses tne hope that the same security may be insured for all as is so carefully provided for herself. "The Queen hopes it is unnecessary for her to recall the to recollection of the railway directors the heavy responsibility which they have assumed since they have succeeded 111 securing the monopoly of the means of travelling of almost the entire popu lation of the country. " Oseonzrz, Dec. 27, INC" The fact, that the Queen had personally addressed the verify:: railway companies in the above letter attracted considerable attention from the English journals. The Doily News objects to it as an in fringement of the rules of British policy, and says : "There is a fatal objection to Sir Charles Phipps' letter, namely, that it comes from source unknown to tho Constitution. In this instance ft is right, and consonant, we believe, with the feeling of the country; but in another Instance it might be wrong, and run counter to the current of public opinion. it Is to avoid the possibility of such a result that the Invaluable rule has been adopted—the rule that mi nister:: responsible to Parliament must be the m piouthece of the sovereign in matters of public in tereett and we should deeply:lament to see that rule in any way infringed."
