As our foot first pressed the deck of the gallant steamer, which, cutting its way through the noble Hudson, was fast hurrying us to our destination, we could not help reflecting on the vast changes of less than a century. We were carried back in thought to the years, when these shores were resonant only with the red man’s whoop, and the peaceful current of the river, only broken by the plash of his hight paddle, The thought was to us big with prophecy of the future destiny of the Anglo Saxon race. Old forest trees have fallen before its onward march— savages have anes to its superior mind the hunt- ing grounds of their fathers—cities have sprung up in the wilderness where it has breathed—and it shall cease not its progress, nor fulfil its high mis- sion, until the whole world shall own its sway. In our wake lay a splendid city, teeming with rich products brought from far distant climes—the centre of a vast commerce, of a struggling and am- bitious refinement; of mighty projects and strange schemes, some destined nie airy bu®bles to burst asseon as formed; others to grow into realities at once wonderful and brilliant “Far before us lay the “magic waters”—the cool bowers—the glittering pavilions—the substantial and elegant hotels of mo- dern Saratoga, where, less than a century back, the solitary Indian, ashe glided through the peaceful forest, stooped to sip the refreshing spring. But hark! tinkle, tinkle, goes the bell, that sad remembrancer and drawback on all the pleasures of this life—notice to disburse the quid pyro quo for our transit. Well, we felt ad in complying, for allis comfortable around us. tad a steamboat ex- isted in Noah’s time, that sage old gentlernan would undoubtedly have adopted it for the preservation of the human race. A modern steamboat, however, does somewhat resemble the ark of the great con- servator, in the multitude of the different species congregated together. Here a belle—there a washerwoman. On one side, an exquisite of the first water, puffing his segar with all the airy light- ness of veritable bon ton—on the other, a greasy soapboiler, fresh from the steant of his own vat. There stands a wealthy merchant, or Wall street broker, who shaves notes at forty per cent, and laughs at the devil! There is an_ itinerant Jew pedlar without his pack, and a faro deal- ing swindler, seeking whom he may devour.— And there, too, is the red, jolly face of Parson Stump and his fair daughter—a party of mustachiod dandies, and a bevy of laughing, bright-eyed de- moiselles, with their gallant beaux. And here they are, all at Saratoga, drinking tumblers of Congress water. The hotels are all well filled, and the fashionable season will probably commence about the 10th inst.

Their eniire stock of goods, probably to the amount of ten thousand dollars, were destroyed. The large brick building occupied by I. & A. store keepers ; A. B. Beal, harness maker, and Samuel Crumbaugh, hat store, was consumed. ‘The brick building occupied by D. D. Williamson, grocer, D Burr, bookseller, and partly asadwelling by two or three families, was also de- stroyed. ‘The loss of property cannot be less than from fifteen to twenty thousand dollars. One of the buildings was insured. ‘The most deplorable part of the calamity, was the loss of two very estimable young men, James Kenny and William Steéle, clerks of Puterbaugh & A son, who slept in the store, When the flames were dis- covered and the door burst open, Mr. Kenny was found lying against the front door, senseless, cut and bruised to le extent. He was conveyed to a dwelling not far off, where he breathed his last, without being able to give any information how the fire commenced. Mr. Steele was discovered lying in bed, probably senseless, but could not be rescued in consequence of the flames, His body was afterwards discovered in the cellar where ithadfuilenthrough. ‘The back door of the store room was standing open, from which it is pretty conclusive that a most ioul murder has been committed, and the store set on fire.

Woot.—The market for this staple has main- tained a very gratifying activity throughout the sea- son, The quantity which has been marketed here shows an increase over any former year—and the quan- tity is destined to increase’ steadily from year to year, as the farmers more and more turn their attention to sheep husbandry. It is believed, also, that quantity will not ooly be augmented, but that quality will be greatly im- proved—for those who embark in the business will un- derstand that the true policy is to stock their fayms with sheep for producing a fine quality of wool—fer the ex- pense of keeping is no ater, While the profits are much increased. The quantity of wool which has been purchased in this place the current season, is ascertained fo be in round numbers, 230000 pounds, and it is stilicoming in, and_ it is believed, before the sea- son closes, the quantity which will have found a market here will not fall short of 250,000 pounds, In view of this fact, we probably hazard nothing in saying, that the quantity of wool purchased in Akron the present season willexceed that of any other point in the State. At least, such is the opinion of many well informed indi- viduals upon the subject, Prices this season bave ranged from 26 to 36 cents a pound—averaging about 27 cents a pound.—Akron Beacon. Coarse Woor.—It costs just about as much to keep a sheep producing coarse wool, as itdoes to keep one of the finest variet: 24 cents. The wool of the former is valueless, inasmuch as it will cost for fodder about as mach as its wool will bring. Hence, there is no wool of the quality imported to this country | atthe 6 cents valuation, raised in the country. A Yan- kee sheep would be ashamed to carry it about with him. | Yet the locofoco papers have a great deal to say about | | the low duty upon coarse wool, as if it came in competi- tion with any wool produced in this country. ‘Th mon of such logic is too palpable to deceive any ‘am- a id only renders those who resort to it ridiculous.—Roche: family chest containing a supply of globulus sufficient for five years, with a book of directions.

The fact appears to be that the company origin: ly intended to locate on the south side of the river, and a liberal and even geverous spirit was manifested by the citizens of Andover, in selling their land at low pric The company, however, entrusted a lawyer of the place with the business of obtaining and per‘ecting the titles tothe real estate which they desired, and he, it was found, had used his knowledge so as to get hold of an es- tate, and demand a price so extortionate that the direc- tors of the company would not submit to it, and accord- ingly decided to resort to the Methuen side of the river. The people of Andover are exceedingly indignant about the matter, as the estate in question was recently bought for less than $3000, and the price demanded of the com- pany for it was $30, The Methuen side of the river possesses as good facilities for the work as Andover.

It is more eligibly situated for building purposes, and its plan is more regular and pl ing to the eye. It requires some stretch of the imagina- tion to look upon the now peaceful fields and wild wood- lands of a sandy plain, and fancy that ina very few years there will spring up a mighty city of brick and mortar, with its paved streets—its loity manufactories—its forest of chimnies, and the busy hum of an industrious popula- tion.—Newburyport Herald, Aug. 6. A PsycnotogicaL Curtosrry.—The watchman in the cupola of the City Hall isa good illustration of a singular effect produced by the mind upon the body—an effect that philosophy has long observed without being able fully to explain. He either wakes regularly every hour, or he cries the hour correctly while asleep! Thi has long been observed by some of our citizens. For in- stance, when the fire which consumed Kmckerbocker Hall was discovered by the private watch of the Banks and Exchange Company, it was found impossible to wake him; the whole neighborhood was aroused—the bells of the several churches were yet ma fi their dire- ful chorus—but no sound from the City |. A friend of ours observed, on looking at his wate! it wanted but a few minutes of four, and remarked, “ See if he does not wake to sty the hour.” Sure enough as the last stroke of the clock sounded, forth came the stento- rial signal, heard above all the chaos of alarm that now filled the ci ed divectly towards the flames that flashed in his face as he uttered it, ‘* Past four o'clock, and a-a-all is well-1-1.” This effort seemed to wake him, for he directly afterwards gave his alarm. The same singular phenomenon was observed on Tuesday morn- ing at the fire in Park street. We make no complaint. Our citizens generally understand that they are depend- ent on psivate watchmen for their safety, and seeming perfectly content to be so. Our object is solely to get at the solution of a philosophical problem. Does he wake every hour, or does he cry the hour while asleep? —lbany Argus, August 7. A New Parenr.—A very valuable improvement on the * Eolian attachment,” and all instruments in which the toue is produced by a current of air acting upon a thin metallic reed, has just been patented at Washington by the ingenious inventor, Mr. Charles Horst, of this city. Mr. Horst’s invention consists in pertecting the reeds used in the above instruments, and Securing them ia such a manner as to render them le: liable to get out of repair, and enabling the performer to raise or lower their pitch at pleasure. An instrument supplied with Mr. Horst’s improved reeds can be tuned to chord with other instruments, or have its pitch raised or lowered with as much ease as that of a guitar or violin. In case a reed should give out, its place can be supplied by anew one, and be perfectly tuned, without resorting to the usual injurious process of filing aud scraping, and in as short a time as a string can be placed in any stringed instrument.— NV. 0.
