The world's history appears, in deed, to be preserved rather in the history of battle-fields than in any other way. It is very true, that the struggle of man with his fellow man has been incessant, and the contest fur power or fame makes op the daily current of political events ; but that will hardly,eciOunt for the fact that while a few men Worship at old shrines of learn ing and do homage to the divinity dwel ling in theaeoby far the greater portion of the race are better eatified with viewing battle-fields and relics of herd blows, battered *words and shields, and the like evidences of man's hatred to man. Few who visit Greece, care io search out the favorite resorts of old philosophers ; but all rush to Marathon and Thermopy lae. Even in countries made interesting by modern events, few care to remain any length of time in the houses of great or good men, or to tread on ground hallowed by the foot-steps of departed worthies, while the mass pour steadily .o Waterloo, to Culloden, Marston Moor, and a hun dred similar places, renowed as soil fertil ized by the blood o f men. If further il lustration of the fact that men worship military glory were needed it may be found in the attention paid to soldiers who have fought bravely, compared with that paid to men who are only known as giants in intellect ; but the fact is too notorious to need proof. An ifflustration is afforded by an anec dote of Kosciusko is his retirement, not long before his death. lie then resided in a cottage in a village of France. A Polish regiment from the army passed through the village. Some outrages were com mitted by the soldiery, and Kosciusko, an old and feeble :nan, came out of his cot tage and addressed them. "When I was a Polish soldier," said he, "we did not do thus." "Who are you that speak so boldly 1' asked an officer, very rudely. "lam Koecinsco," was the quiet reply The name ran from rank to rank, from corps to corps, until it grew to a shout of intense devotion, and the march aban-1 Boned, all washer/0 is. sous. around the defender of Poland.—New York Jour. of Comnicr.:e. PHENOMENON OF THE BRAIN.—One of the most inconceivable things in the na ture of the brain is, that the organ of sen sation should itself be insensible. To cut the brain gives no pain, yet in the brain a-, lone resides the power of feeling pain in any other part of the body. If the nerve which leads to it from the injured part be divided, it 'becomes instantly unconscious of suffering. It is only by communication with the brain that any kind of sensation is produced, yet the organ itself is insen sible. But there is a circumstance more wonderful still. The brain itself may be removed, may be cut away down to the corpus calastmt, without destroying life.— The animal lives and performs all its func tions, which are necessary to simple vital ity, but no longer has a mind; it cannot , think or feel ; it requires that the food should be pushed into its stomach. once there it is digested, and the animal will ev en thrive and grow fat. We infer, there fore, that part of the brain, the convo lutions, is simply intended fur the excer ciao of the intellectual faculties, whether of the low degree called instinct, or exalted kind bestowed on man, the gift of reason. , —Wagon on the Quality of the Mind. IN 4 7OIIBUSITIBLII PREPARATION FOR WOOD. —The following recipe for rendering wood incombustible, has been, we belidt, test ed in regard to its efficacy, and, although personally w# have not seen it proved, think we can recommend it as being of much utility, particularly when applied to the ' surface of wooden roots, or other places particularly exposed to the action of tire.— It is very simple in its preparatioc, which requires the operator merely to take a quantity of water proportionate to the sur face.of the wood he may wish to cover and add to it as much potash as can be dissol ved therein. When the water will dis solve no more potash, stir into the' solution • first a quantity of flour paste, of the con sistency of commotrpainter's size ; se cond a sufficiency of.pore Clay to render ,it of the oonsistemey of cream. • 'When the clay it well mixed, ripply the pieptrition, .as hefore directed, to the wood; it wilt se cure it from the. action 'of both fire and rain.'

Some years since a gentlentan reading in Anderson County in this Eitate.'sold a negro man to a citizen of Middle Tennes see. The negro was removed to. the home of hie new master, but in a short time ran away and returned to Anderson County, and secreted hiniself for a year Or More in the neighborhood o' his wife, but was fi *tally discovered and apprendetl 4 and again taken to Middle Tennessee.' He remain ed the second time until a favorable oppor tunity was presented and again absconded. ' This was six or seven years since. A large reward wu offered for his apprehen sion. Diligent search was for a long time made, but no traces of him being discov ered, his running away had passed entire ly out of the minds of all but his owners. A few days since, however, two men, re siding in Anderson County, by the names of Diggs and Low, were out with their ri fles hunting game. Being fatigued and thirsty, for the purpose of refreshing them selves, they concluded to go to a fine spring riot far off. This they did, and up to the cabin, where there were several white women living. Diggs took his seat upon a bed, while his companion, Low, remained in the yard. One of the women was in the cabin, and so soon as Diggs en tered, she commenced a sprightly conver sation with hint. during which She av proarhed the bedside and let fall on the floor a large butcher knife, at which, as soon as it struck the floor, the hand of a negro caught front tinnier the bed. Diggs' suspicion being thus awakened, lie, with great presence of mind, kicked the knife beyond the reach of the hand, and in§tant , ly a huge negro sprang out, drew up an axe with both hands, and was swinging it over so as to cleave the skull of Diggs, when fortunately the force of the blow was so far checked by the axe striking the ! "loft," that all the injury Diggs sustained was a alight gash in his forehead of four or five inches in length. Diggs cocked his gun, presented it at the negro and fi red ; but the negro observed the precise posi tion of the muzzle, and placed the broad side of the axe before it, so that the bullet must necessarily strike it, as it did.— Diggs sprang upon the negro and grappled bet did not sneered in throwing him until the negro had struck him an alter severe blow above the eye with the axe. The report of the gun brought Low into the ca bin just as Diggs threw the negro upon the bed. Low ran up immediately and with his butcher knife stabbed the negro three times in the side, sticking the knife each time as deep as he could. Finding that this did not vanquish the negro, who still struggled with Diggs, he placed the gun at the negro's side and discharged the entire load into his body. This over came the negro and he yielded, bleeding from every wound very profusely. Diggs and Low supposing that lie must neces sarily die, went out in search of neighbors, who, when they came in, discovered the negro still alive, and knew him to be the same negro that had been so long "in the woods." The negro was removed to the Clinton jail, where he is now confined to await a trial for the assault upon Diggs' life, the punishment for which, if he be convicted, is death ; though we learn there is no probability that he will recover.— ' Knoxville (Tenn.)

TROUBLE AMONG THE METHODISTS IN ENGLAND.—'There was trouble in Eng land, at the last accounts, Waning the Wes leyan Methodists, who, next to the estab lished church, are the wealthiest and most influential sect in the kingdom. It origi nated in some articles in a newspaper. des cribing "certain leading and influential members of the body as indolent, selfish, artful, ambitious and tyrannical." Steps were taken to trace the authors, and one of them having been discovered, he forth with made his admission, and was senten ced by the conference to a solemn admon ition, and to be disqualified from the super intendence of a circuit. It having been found impoasible to detect the others. the question was put generally to each minis ter. whether lie was or not the author.— This proceeding, supposing it to be intend ed with a view to subsequent punishment, was wkolly opposed to all ordinary no tions of right, and four of the ministers re fused to answer. Upon this one of them was admonished and four expelled, and the consequence has been that meeting in their behalf have taken place throughout the country, and the matter has assumed all the appearance of a party contest.

HORRIBLE CRUELTY TO A 1 51 LASE.—The following paragraph front a late number of the Richmond (Va.) Examiner, will con vey a faint idea of the kind of institution that as sought to be introdued into our new territories, and whose exclusion therefrom is to be followed by a dissolution of the Union. Can it be wondered at that a Christian people like our Southern breth• ren should hold a system which produces such fruits dearer than any and all ties of country and race .•A rumor of a most terrible and unhap py character is rife in this city. A man in Hanover is said to have murdered one of 'his negroes under circumstances almost too horrible to relate. He tied him up in the morning, and whipped, and tortured the poor wretch without intermission save at meal time through the live-long day. lie burnt off various parts of his body with fire, and otherwise tortured him, its modes too horrible to mention. The screeching brought many persons to the place, but the master stood by with two revolvers, and threatened to shoot any one that interfered. The negro was not taken down until near sunset, then only because he WAS—dead I The creature who is said to have done this has been imprieoned." DURATION AND FERTILIZING EFFECTIe of ANIMAL MANURE.—AII portions of An imal manures are good, but different in the rapidity of their fertilizing effects, as well as in their duration. The principle of this difference is described by Prufessoir Johnston as follows : Horn, hair and wool depend for their efficacy precisely on the same princi ples as the blood and flesh of animals.— They differ chiefly in this, that they are dry, while the blood and flesh of ani mals contain from eighty to ninety per cent. of their weight of- water. Hence a ton of horn shavings, of hair, or dry_wool en rags ought to enrich the soil" as much as ten tons of blod. In China, the hair which in every ten days is shaVen from the heads of the entire papntatkon, is eol lected and sold for manure throughout ths empire.
