a happy state oftliings it will be, when a style
of expression like the following, written phono-
griipliically, and printed phonotypically, will
form our vernacular! The writer is coiiiineii-
ting on the death of Silas \Vright:
“Humanity laments when such a man
passes away from the state of nature to the
state of essence—tlie state of fulness to
the slate of void, the state of visibility to
the state of invisibility, the state of maiii-~
festation to the state without manifesta-
ti0ri.”—-.'lIz'tIi/le.s-c.'L‘- (M ass.) Freeman.
The Boston Star thus hits off this precious bit
of Irtlllscelltlelllllllslll :
“And common sense lugubriates, wlie'n
practical actuality disappears in the misty
verbosity of gammoii——wlien sackcloth
covoied Saxon English is scpuichrcd be-
neath the mountainous pondei'osit_v of

lapse away into the iiiciferous limbo of

The Storm South.—A storm of rain was ex-
perienced at Baltimore, iind south on Thursday
last... The inundation at Baltimore and vicinity
has not been equalled for many years. The
streets were in some instances flooded to the
depth of two and three feet, the cellars and first.
stories of stores and tenements were filled, and
the streams swollen to an appalling extent. The
distraction to Bridges, Dams, Railroads and'oth-
or property was immense.
The same storm was felt here on Thursday
and Friday. The Mountaineer steamer on her
way to Bridgeport was obliged to put; in at So,
Norwalk on Friday. The Cricket also was
obliged to lay over a day.

being allowed with the camp, except on Thurs-

after inspection, from 10 to 11 A. M. will be
given for a free passage to all parts of the field.

The S racuse Convention.-—The friends
ofJohn Calhoun who are members of
the democratic convention now sitting at
Syracuse, ‘and who, it is said, though we
can scarce believe it, imagine that he has
some chance for the vote of this State,
are leiigued with the conservatives in all
their proceedings. A correspondent says :
“It is not to be supposed that James T.
Brady and other friends of Calhoun care
any thing about putting new men into
office. They onlyi-egard this matter in
its bearing upon the prospects of their
candidate. Mr. Flagg is regarded as the .

of_tlie_ Wilmot Proviso, and he is therefore

' StanIey’s Air-tight Rotary
COOKING STOVE.
For l'Vin.tcr 07' Summer.
VVE especially invite public attention to Stanley’s
Improved Patent Air-Tiglit Rotary Cook-Stove,for
Winter or Summer. By a simple inoveinent of
the crank attached to the rotary top. it so revolves
as to place the boilers iininediately over the fire, if
rapid boiling is desired. or transfer them to the rear,
if a more moderate application of heat is wanted.
Baking is accomplished most efliciently. aided by the
agency of upright slieet-iron tubes. exteiidiiig over
the back surface ofthe oven, thus sustaining an equal
circulation of the heated air around it. The Oven
itself, occupying the entire base ofthe stove, is amply
spacious for all desired purposes. For roasting, a
tin roaster, of the largest capacity can be placed be-
fore the froiit oftlie stove, and by reflected heat op-
erates most admirably. In broiling on the top, the
draft passes the offensive fumes directly through the
pipe into the chimney. The sliding valve by a sim-
ple movement, graduates the draft. and at pleasure,
increases, diminishes, or extinguislies combustion.
The stove is adapted to the consumption of either
wood or coal.
The stove now offered to the public, is one which
in superiority of workmanship, beauty of design,
simplicity ofarrangement, economy in the consump-
tion of fuel, and perfect adaption to the wants of
the culinary department, fiir surpasses any stove in
-the market. The public will please call and exani-
ine this stove at my store, before purchasing other
highly extolled patterns.

A'I‘W()UD’S PATENT
Empiirc Hot Air
Cooking Stove
For Winter or Suinmer use—forwood or coal.
HIS Steve has been used in various sec"-
. . tions of the couritry for upwards of 5 years
and has in all iiistances given universal satisfac-
tion iii all its departments.
No stove yet invented has appi'oxima_ted so
near to perfection as this one. Its capacity and
excellence for Baking, Roasting, Broiling, Fry-
ing, or Boiling, has never bi-en approached.—
None that saves so much fuel, none so conven-
ient in use, none so perfect .in form and con-
struction, and none in which the fire box and
oven flues, are so well and happily adapted to
their several objects ii nd ends.
In all the stoves now extant, ovens are made
to bake by radiated heat: and confined hot air,
and this is the reason why bread, dcc. has to be
lowered or raised. turned from side to side, or in
other words, watched almost continually, or it
will burn or bake very uneven. Not so with
the Atwood Stoves. The air, in this instance,
is heated, iind by its expiinsion carried in
a. current from the atmosphere through. by
the side of the fire box, into the even. find 111'
timately escapes at the flue over the top of the
oven——keeping a uniform tenipeiatiire throug-
out the oven. The consequence is. {hilt bread.
with ,1 modemte fire, needs no attendance.——-
Herein consists the superior advantages of the
Atwood Coooking Stove overall others.
A variety of other Stoves, both Kitchen and
Parlor, may also be found at the store of the
