This Company was chartered at the last session of the Legislature, to build n plank road from Cumfortaville, in the County o I.nzerne, to the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Rail Road in the County of Monroe and is intended to make an out-let, for the vast quantities of lumber manufactured on the Lehigh and in the western part of Monroe County, to the Kail Koad. Una improve ment, when finished, will be a great benefit to the lumbermen. We doubt not, judging from ivliat we know of the gentlemen who have it in charge, that it will be pushed to a speedy completion.

Were tbe actual worth of this sterling monthly generally known, its subscription list would number hundreds instead of tens of thousands. Notwithstanding the ridiculously low price at which it is pub lished (one dollar per annum,)it is print ed on new type and superior paper, and illustrated with a profusion of choice en gravings on wood, and its mechanical and artistical execution generally, is credita able to the typographical profession. A gain, in literary merit, its articles are of a high intellectual order second to none of our first class magazines, and far su perior to the "namby-pamby" love-sick effusions that distinguish a large portion of the cheap publications of tbe day. The aim of its conductors is to instruct and enlighten, yet, at the same time, to so va ry its contents as to amuse and entertain their patrons .The current number opens with a canto of Scott's "Lay of the Last Minstrel," illustrated with eleven spirited encravinss, copied from the designs of the Edigburgh edition. This poem will be given complete in the succeeding num bers, the whole illrstrated with over GO enaravmcrs. Tins is followed with two more of these thrilling and interesting il lustrated narratives, entitled "Scenes and Incidents in American History," two of which are prepared for each number of this Magazine. We observe this scries is being extensively copied by the city and country press, and we regret to add, with out giving the usual credit due on such occasions; even our neighbor of the Tri bune was guilty of this "Tittle indiscretion" a tow cays since. iinotucr paper on "Education" is illustrated with views of tbe new hall of the Board of Education, and some of tbe principal school buildings in this city. It also contains valuable in formation on this important subject. "The Bull Fights of Spain" is illustrated, and gives a capital idea of this exciting a musement, so popular among tbe inhabi tants of that countrj-. " The Biographic a?id Portraits of Henry Ward Beecher and Orville Dewey," are alone worth the price of this number. An elaborates nd instructive article, illustrated with six en gravings, gives a history of the invention and antiquity of the "saw and saw wzzYs," and will undoubtedly claim tho attention of every reader. " The Voice from the An cient Dead" tbe Phoenician inscription, disinterred near Sidon, in Syria, on tbe 19th of January, last, a facsimile of which was first presented to the world through tbe columns of this Magazine, in April last, has been translated and is presented in the present number thus proving that even in the Oriental languages American scholarship is not behind that of the older nations of tbe earth. A spirited and life like portrait 11 Giovanni Pianori the un fortunate Italian who, on the 2Sth of A pril last, flred a pistol at Louis Napoleon, for which he suffered death on the 14th of May following. This sketch was drawn by an intimate friend, after Pianori was committed to prison, and forwarded to Mr.GughelmoOajani,oneof the Italian Pa triots, now in this city, who furnished it, with an account of his previous life, for publication. Besides, the above, the Mag azine contains a large amount of other in- terestingmatter Poetry, Correspondence, Editor's Table, etc.; winding up with tbe laughter-provoking jokes of "Dcmocritus, Philosopher" the whole Tsill rrliint A Washington correspondent of tbe Herald says, that some officers of tbe Ar my and the Government have been dis covered speculating in land, and that Commissioner Manypenny has brought on himself tbo anger of Jeff. Davis and oth er functionaries for disclosing it. Mr. Wilson, late Commissioner of the Land Office, also took up the matter, and for bis 'indiscretion' in doing so was removed. The correspondent adds: The corruptions and speculations of tbo favorites of tbe present administration surpaes belief; and any honest officer who undertakes to fulfil his duty by investiga ting them is pretty sure to fall. They dare not remove Manypanny, however, as the great State of Ohio elands at bis back. Another Presidential Candidate.

The Hermann, at New York, and the America at Halifax, bring the one fou days and the other seven days later news from Europe. The intelligence from the seat ot war is important, though but brie details, received by telegraph by the En" i: i. j t? . c iisu auu rrciicu governments, are given to the public. Humor was very rife when the Hermann left of a severe repulse sus tained by the Allied forces in storming Malakoff and the Redan, and though five days had intervened before the sailing of the steamer America, since the battle which was fougnt on the 18th of June, out tew additional lacts had transpired, and those were communicated officially by Lord Panmuro. Private accounts were more full. They describe tbe bat tie to have been a simultaneous attack by ioe xmusu upon tie itednn nm do A " U m W XX brench upon the Malakoff. The Allies fought with their usual courage and im petuosity, and the French sained a footing in tne Maiakott, but the llussians opened ufuu nuuui mm a uil'uuiui ure anu iroru new and unexpected batteries. The Al lies were compelled to abandon the attack and retreat to their former parallels. The Russians pprunirsome mines, where by the slaughter was more terrible. Tin loss to tbe British alone, it is said is near ly 4,000 men killed aud wounded. The Russians appear to have followed the re treating Allies, and have sucoceded in recapturing the Maraelon outworks, to get possession of which caused the French such a severe loss on the 7th ultimo. This asault is the first undertaking by storm against tbe regular defences of Se bastopol, and its disastrous result does not augur favorably for a speedy capture of the place. Wonders of the Atmosphere. The atmosphere forms a spherical shell surrounding the earth to a depth which is unknown to us by reason of its grow ing tenuity as it is released from the pres sure of its own superincumbent mass. Its upper surface cannot be nearer to us than fifty and can scarcely be more than five hundred miles. It surrounds us on all sides, yet we see it not; it presses on us with a load of fifteen pounds on every square inch or surface of our bodies, or from seventy to one hundred tons on us all, yet we do not so much as feel its Softer than the finest down, weiut. Immense Casting. At one of tbe New a orb. iron works, last week, an iron plate Was cast for tbe atelier of a plate of glass works, which weighed forty tons, and measured twenty feot long, ten feet six inches wide, and ten inches tbick. more impalpable than the finest gossa mer, it leaves tbe cobweb undisturbed, and scarcely stirs the slighest flower that feeds on the dew it supplies; yet it bears tbe fleets of nations ou its wings around the world and crushes tbe most refactory substances with its weight. When in mo tion its force is sufficient to level tbe most stately forests and stable buildings with the earth; to raise the waters of the ocean into ridges like mountains and dash the strongest ships to pieces like toys. It warms and cools by turns the earth and the living creatures that inhabit it. It draws up vapors from the sea and land, retains them dissolved in itself or suspend ed in cisterns of clouds, and throws them down again as rain or dew when they are required. It bends tbe rays of the sun from their path to give us the twilight of evening and of dawn; it disperses and re fracts their various tints to beautify tbe approach and the retreat of the orb of day. But for the atmosphere, sunshine would burst upon us and fail us at once, and at once remove us from midnight darkness to the blaze of noon. We should have no twilight to soften and beautify tbe landscape, no clouds to shade us from the scorching heat; but tbe bald earth, as it revolved on its axis, would turn it tanned and weathered front to the ful and unmitigated rays of the lord of day It affords the gas which vivifies and warm our frames, and receives into itself that which had been polluted by use and is thrown off as noxious. It feeds the flame of life exactly as it does that of tbe fire it is m both cases consumed and afford tbe food of consumption; in both cases it becomes combined with charcoal, which requires is for combustion, and it re moved by it when this is over. "It is only the girdling encircling air,' says a writer in the North British Re view, " that flows above and around us that makes the whole world kin. The carbonic acid witu which to-day our breathing fills the air to-morrow seeks it way round the world. The date trees that grow round the falls of the Nile wil drink it in by their leaves; the cedar3 o Lebanon will take of it to add to their stature; the cocoa nuts of Tahita will grow rapidly upon it; and the palms and ban anas of Japan will change it into flowers The oxygen we are breathing was distill ed for us some short time ago by the mag nolias of Susquehanna and the great trees that skirt the Orinoco and the Amazon tho giant rhododendrons of the Ilimalays contributed to it, and the roses and rayr ties of Cashmere, the cinnamon tree o Ceylon, and the forests older than the flood, buried deep in the heart of Africa far behind the Mountains of the Moon.- The rain we see descending was thawed for us out of the icebergs which have watched the Polar star for ages; and the lotus lilies have soaked up from the Nile and exhaled as vapor snows that rested on tbe summits of the Alps.'' "Ihe atmosphere, says Maun, "which forms the outer surface of the habitaable world is a vast reservoir, into which the supply of food designed for living crea tures is thrown; or. in one word, it is it self tbe food in its simple form of all liv ing creatures. The animal grinds down tho fibre and the tissue of the plant, or the nutritious store that has been laid up within its cells, and converts these into the substance of which its own organs are composed. The plant acquires the or gans and nutritious store thus yielded up as food to the animal from the invulnera ble air surrounding it; but animals are furnished with the means of locomo.tion and seizure they can approach their food and lay hold of and swallow it ; plants must await till their food comes to them No solid particles find access to their frames; the restless ambient air, wfiich rushes past them loaded with the carbon, the hydrogen, the oxygen, tho water, ev cry thing they need in the shape of sup plies, is constantly at hand to minister to their wants, not only to afford them food in due seasan, but in the shape or fash ion in which it alone cau avail them. intelligence from the mining dis Two Weeks Later from California.

The intense heat of Saturday, June 30th, had a disastrous effect in N. York upon many poor laborers and others who were exposed to the sun's rays. A large number of persons were overcome by tbe beat, and up to Saturday afternoon ten deaths were reported at the offices of the Coroners. Among the sunslruck cases was that of James Gillen, a poliooman, who after a few hours' suffering recover ed. Coroners' inquests were held in the cases of Anthony Kohl, a German, about 52 years of age; Mary O'Brien, a native of Ireland; an unknown man who fell in Prince street, and died in about an hour; Elizabeth Ahern, a native of Ireland, aged 19; Richard Fitzgerald, a labor, 22 years of age; a colored man, name un known; an unknown man about 30 years of age; an unknown man about 40 years of age, who had the appearanee of a la borer; Joseph Eraser, a resident of Oak street, about 36 years of age; Michael Costello, of West 32d street; an unknown man, apparently a laborer, about 30 years of age. The verdict in each of the above cases was death from the effects of the beat. Several sudden deaths, from the effect of heat, took place also at Baltimore on Saturday, as follows : A man, (name uukuown,) whilst walk- in" along tbo Liberty road near Vr Hitch's farm, just beyond the limits of the citv. on Saturdav afternoon, fell to the ground and expired in a few minutes An elderly lady from the Eastern Shore arrived in this city on Saturday af ternoon last, and was proceeding on her way to Franklin street, along South Charles, when she received a sun stroke from the effects of which she expired in a short time. About half-past soven o'clock, on Sat urday evening a man named John Hogan was carried to tho Southern district po lice station in an insensible state, where ho died about two hours afterwards. The inquest rendered a verdict of death from sun stroke. A man whose name is said to be John Barker was sun struck on Friday after noon on the Charles street avenue, and snortiy alter expired. a verdict was rendered of 'death by a stroke of the sun. Joseph Hamilton, formerly a police of ficer, suddenly fell, on Saturday after noon, at tho Corner of St. Paul and Cath drel streets, and expired shortly after be ing conveyed to his residence. His death is attributable to the extreme heat of the weather.

Illegitimate Children. The last Legislature passed the follow ing important section, relating to the name and right of illegitimate children to in herit the estate of their mother and the estate of such child: Section 3. That illegitimate children shall take and be known by the name of their mother and they and their mother shall respectively have capacity to take or inherit from each other personal estate as next of kin; and real estate as heirs in fee simple; and as respects said real or personal estate so taken and inherited, to transmit tbe same according to the intes tate laws of this State. The Roman Catholic Cathedral in Pitts burg, Pa., which was consecrated on Sun day last, was commenced four years ago, and will be when finished, says the Bal timore American, the most magnificent church building in this country. It is estimated that from 4,000 to 5,000 per sons can bo seated within its walls ; and if necessary, additional pews can be set upon the space now left free for process- ions, tvc. Araoncr the many novel fn.i. ures introduced into this church, is the invention of Bishop O'Conner. by which tie seats can De changed without tho oc cupants being required to leave their pews. so that tho oonarccation can face either y-t u - way.
