THE USES OF MOUNTAINS.
•Rev. T. Starr King,•in' his work
,on "The
White Hills; their Legends,' Landscape, and
Poetry," PobliSheil `by Crosby, 'lCFichole;,:lLee
Fle•Co., thus pleasantly discourses upon One o r
thensesnf mountains . •
t'Mr. Roakin notes it alone of the
. .Most
prominent uses of mountains: . that . . they' canes
perpetual changee in the soils of the earth: .The
physical' geographers assure , us, that if the whole .
matter . of the Alps were shoveled out over
Europe, the level of 'the continent .would.• be
raised about twenty feet. And this process or
leveling is continually going on. .By a calcul
lation, Which he made in the. valley. of..ChaniL'
ouni, Mr...lltiskin, , * believes that one of the
insignificant runlets, only four inches wide, and
four. Inches. deep, carries dowri from Mount
Blanc eighty ,'tons of"granite dustn year, at
which rate of theftat least 80,000 tons orthe
.substance of. that _mountain 'mig be yearly
transforrned,into drift•sandby the streams, and
distributed upon' the; plain' below. On White=
face Mountain, of the Sandwich group, a. slide
took 'place in 1820, which
,hurled down huge
blocks - of 'granite, sienite, quartz, felepar; and
trap rocks, and cut a deep ravine: in the sides
of the Mountain several.miles in ,extent.. But
compensation'was made in part for its destruc
tive fury... Anextensiye meadow (ultra .base,
WhiCh had borne Only wild , conrse.grasses ; Was
rendered more fertile by the fine sedirtieni,.here
and there four or five:feet in depth, that was
diStribUted'upon it, and now produces excellent
grass and white clover.. Take a century or,two
into account; arid we Grid the mountains fertil
izing the soil by the:minerals they'restore to it
to compensate' the •wastes of the " harvests.
The, hills; which, as compared with living
'beings,. seem. everlasting, ;at. in truth,' as
perishing.aslirey. Its; veins of flowing , fount
ains weary, the mountain heart as the: crim.sini
pulse does ours; the natural forces Of the iron
crag is 'abated in its appointed time, like:the
strength olthe sinews in a human old 'age; and
it is but rthe lapse of the longer years 'of (tern)
in the sight of its Creator, distinguiahe

A. Sonnyv' Tarckln.the summer of 185 . 4, a
servant girl, named Hannah Mengle, in -the
family of.Mr..CuminingS., of Bellefonte,' bought
a ticket.in a lottery; held by . J.• M. LYthe, 'at
the Monnta'in House! Blair county, by „which'
; she •drew a' carriage yarded at $3OO. :The
-carriage was giVeln charge of Mr. Cummings,
tOdelive't to'the girl, but 14,.charged the girl in

locked up the carriage'. Acting under:the ad-.

Three republican manifestoes, from recog.
nized leaders of. the -.party' hire. just' ', . made
their apitearance, and are highly.. instraCtive.
'nese manifestoes, which fairly , .reprosent.the
iank and file'of the piny, are a recent' speech .
ofV. H. Seward, an editorial article from, the.
New York ' Times,. and another from the' New
York Tribtms, tha leading nawspaperorgans of
the repoblicans,sas Sewaitl is their ,foremost•
statesman, their prophet, priest.and guide.
These deliberate expressions of sentiment are
the programme ,of the drama -by the - author
lilinself,and by the chief actors, Who havallteir
parts'aiready assigned them. Theperformance
id to be a reign of terror. It has been eirried
'already into the. South: The VOMIT 'cane -it
""terrorism in Texas,'! end the'Trounsdeserihes
it as ‘ , Texas in ,terror,“'., The Times says:— . •
“Ar long as slavery exists, mid wherever it ex
ists, there.will be.iilesigning and indefatigable
abolitionists, 'and isespicioncand ,exiitable
tell, and El social organization Which can only
be saved by fiti ofirearchy and bloOdshed and'.
mob law every fdursitars is not wortitsaving.”
The lore,gone conclueion is, of 'course,' for get
rid,of what is not worth saving.' . Thi Tramie,'
with eltaractetiatic boldnessopeake • mit Moro,
plainly.. It says:—itThero. is one state of so
ciety—one state of suppiessed ' war—which,
when it breaks out into Open hostility, May .
bring, with it consequences w•ith,whicb no other
warfare is ever followed.", • What the suppress
ed war,-'is vlhich: is to break' out into open
hostility, another tort of the .. artigle -leaves . 'oo
doubt. "It is dangeroni," adds the Tribune,
4•playing with such mi edged tool as servile, in,
surrection. • • • They would then fiotl,
too late, that' they. have kindlelf , a , consuming
fire which they -.cannot so :easily extingnish,
and raised hands by',thoaeands" . which ,' wol not
wait for arms' to commence. the, crael'en d
frightfulwork•of servile war." -There is no
mistaking such language AP this, nor the follow
ing•from the same , pent—" Slaves, who may to
night, acting' . with one common purpose, 'car
rying out it long cherished. design, under the
'eed of those among' thetti who are most intel,
ligent, most cunning,- arid also most Cruel,.
wreak their tong pent up .vengeatica on mortal
foes."' • • . .
All this is only in perfect unison: - with the
key note' in the speech of-Mr. §ewead, .who (Je
erer:es that his policy is not ; to prevent the, ex!
tension of alaverfin the Territories, but to sNe
c,reaseand diminish it in.all.the States," till, in'
the words of Lincoln at Springfield, 'be las sc."
compliieed its g.ultimate extinction:: "This,"
says 31r. Seward, !"is the *hole question. If
I am wrong, then I •am egregiously 'wrong."
Hero is a straighHorward declaration of princi
ples,and polley,.and"we.regret to say it is, not
yet met on the other side by a: corresponding,
boldness. .Mr. Seward . ihows in his speech that
„the 'South will be an.eary fuer of *the jtepubli
aan party,.when they get into.power; 'that the
.Southern States are in such a condition that a,
• handful of men can ; at any time,
,raise a do
mestic insurection. Which centiot pa quencbedt
and that At this moment every Sebtherti - State,..
, as . well as Texas now . ; and_ Virginia last fall, is
in terrOt of an approaching bloody revolution.
In. the" same. strain 'sing the Tribune' and the:
liner.. It is the'very burden of their song.=
in the,exultation'of an anticipated. viatoix, in

over the South as a prostrate: foe, and tell it
ihat it may as well quietly submit to its deem,
and surrender to'destruetion itself and its•initi
ttition, whichyConnot seam,
.Nor . is Ihernians left doubtful by which, this
devoutly wished-for consummation is to be at
