MICHMOSD, VAs SATURDAY MORNING JUNE 23,1355 SPIRITOFTHE PRESS. The Examiner has au article on the dangers of tbe times, and ssys that the present posture of political a flairs threaten greatej danger to the country, than any state of things existing since the surrfnder of the British forces at Yorktown. There seems a selected determination on the part of the North, to make slavery a pretext for breaking up the Union. It not a sense of duty that urges them on. If it were common sease.it would teach theui first to provide for the moral religious wants of their own country.

Lucy Stone, would find scopo enough on Blackwell's Island to practice principles of reformation, and Horace Greely's philanthropy, wuuld tind occupation on the mis sionary ground at the Five Points, aud the 3,000 petitioury preachers, might find employment in converting the aruiy of 000 courtezans wbo swarm thu streets of New York. Tue abolition of slavery is an English, not au American movement, and is presented by that greuly self-aggrandizement, whioh has ever characterized Great Britain. It' the Union were dissolved tomorrow, in six months, England would qq seeking a treaty with the South, guaranteeing slaveiy as it exists, and securing to herself a monopoly of southern trado, and in a pecuniary point of view, this would be better for the than the present stats of The Fugitive slave law, Nebraoka tiio admission of Kansas, as a slave sUU-, will be the test. The capital of tha NortL mu.it take sides, and its selection will powerfully intiuenoe the result, und it should bear in mind that there is no time to be lost. Nor la it worth while to the fact, that upon the organization of the National Democracy depends constitutional peace and union.) The Whig calls special attention to those parts cf the Philadelphia platform, which declare a faithful and unreserved obedience to the constitution, and inculcate a lasting love and reverence for the Ution.

It quotes I hat portion of it contained, in Article 111 and IV. It has maintained and still maintains, that the American party is a national constitution loving Union party, and the only one in full existence Tbere Is no ambiguity about the They declare that tbe maintenance of the usicjf tte language of the Father ot hit countryis "the primary object of patriotls desire." And hence the Americau parly solemnly pledges itself to frown upon and discountenance "all attempts to weaken or subvert antagonism to erery principle or policy that endangers "the advocacy of an equitable ad. justment of all political differences which threaten its integrity, or perpetuity Also "the suppression ot all tendencies to political division, founded on geographical discriminations, or ou the belief that there is a real difference of interests and views between the various sections of the Union." And farther, "the full recognition of the rights of the several States, as expressed and reserved in the constitution; and a careful avoldanee, by the general government, ot all interference with their rights by legislative or executive action." The Enquirer ha 3 an article on the exclusion of the Catholic Louisiana delegation from the K. N. Convention, and says that this act of gross religious intolerance will provoke a storm of indignation in Louisiana, and will, to a great txteat, weaken the Order in that State and in Maryland." The Penny Post compares the Baltimore and Philadelphia platforms, touching upon the slavery question, and alter a close analysis of the two, says of the latter "There is no equivocation attempt to hoodwitik the fishing for on both of the conciliation of the abolitionists The Union and Enquirer make much ot the secession of the abolitionists from the PhiJadaiphia platform.

They would have bad no occasion to secede from that of Baltimore. But it is true, the; did secede from the Philadelphia platform." acase recently ttied before Judge in the Court of Common Pleas, at Sandusky, Oalo, John Hays, an engineer on the Mansfield, Sandusky and Newark Railroad, sned the Company for wages, amounting to $132. On the part of the Company It was urged that on the 30th ot August, 1654, wbllu running his train contrary to the printed rules of the road, be had run (he engine and train into a mail and passenger train, by which the Company had sustaiued a loss ot $11,000. The defendants, in consequence of the act, askad that so much of the aum as might be necessary to satisfy the plaintiff's claim of $132 be set eff against the same, and that they have judgment for any balance that might be found to be due. The Court, upon trial, and alter bearing tbo evidence, reLdered judgment against the plaintiff lor $5,150.

Misprint in thb Bible French, in his late wcrk on the English language, points out a typographical error in Mathew, 23 chapter and 20ih verse: The words "which strain at a gnat and swallow a camel," ihe professor thinks contain a misprint, which, having been passed over in the edition of 1611, has held its ground ever Tbe translators intended to say, "which strain out a gnat and swallow a camel," that being the correct rendering of the original, as appears in Tycsdale's and Craomer'a translations, both oi which have "strained out." Distbbssiko has been the greatest excitement in Tlnlcnm Township Buck county, Pa tor several weeks past, in relation to the sudden death of Miss Elizabeth Uilpot, a very respectable young lady ot that place The young lady died In Philadelphia about the 20th of May. Last week a coroner's icqueat was held at Tinlcam, on tbe body when it was discovered that the poor girl bad been seduced by a married man in the neighborhood, and had lost her life in Philadelphia, in attempting to lid herself of the evidence of her shame. The greatest indignation prevailed in the township, upon the development of thesetacts, and it was seriously contemplated to lynch the scoundrel and his abettors. Episcopal and Mkthodut Epis" Protestant Churchman gives the follow tog contrut: to tbe last census, the Dumber ol MetbcdUt Churches iu the Uultfd Ststfs It 13,338 tbe value in Church property 814 and tbe amount of 4 the number of Episcopal churches. 1.461; the value ol tbe Cburcb property.

The survey and location of the road was commenced in 1849, and the first dirt was moved about the middle of Jan uary, IPSO, under the Presidency of O.

G. Clay. Gov. Floyd was present on the occasion, and threw up tbe first spade full of earth. It has since progressed, with occasional partial suspensions from limited means, and is now extended 133 miles.

It has crossed the Blue Ridge and Alleghanies in this distance, at a grade of 63 feet on the eastern and feet on the western slope. The mountain section i 3 marked by many deep cuts through solid limestone, and an extensive tunnel near the summit. There are, in the part of the road finished, five tunnels, the aggregate leugth of which is 2000 Seventy miles remain to be completed to the Tennessee line. The embankment for this whole distance ia ready for the rails, with the exception of about tao.ooo worth of masonry and grading. The superstructure and bridgiog is all under contract, and there is iron enough purchased and received to lay the road oomplete.

Honey is howev or wauted to go on; but it is hoped and believed that, under tbe new loan, enough will he obtained to press oh the work. It would bave been finished a year ago, but for the difficulty of obtaining money. Neither the engineer nor the officers of the road could go ahead without this nine yuct non; for, as wide as was Solomon, and as strong as was Samaou. neither of them could pay money if they did not have it. Mr.

John R. McDa.v-ikl succeeded Gen. Clay in the Presidency of the road, and he has devoted ail his prac tical energy to its interests. He has accomplished difficulties that would have appalled a man of less euerjfy and financiering ability. Notwithstanding the road passes through mountain country, it is only 29 miles longer than an air loss of little more than 14 per cent, in the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad loses 70 per cent, between Baltimore and Fredericktown, and 50 per cent, between Baltimore and Of the 203 miles, 110 are straight, and only 16 miles of that part which is curved are considered as slightly retarding the motion of the trains.

It is estimated that the road, completed and equipped with an ample supply of locomotives, will cost about $25,000 Cer mile. Few roads of similar character ave been constructdd for less than $30,000 per mile. These facts are highly creditable to the engineering skill and energy of Col. C. P.

M. Garnett, the Chief gentleman who, in addition to his professional accomplishments, commands alike the respect and esteem of all in the circle of his acquaintance by the eourtcsy and kindness of his disposition and bis true Virginian frankness and generosity. We passed the night of the 10th in in the afternoon observing the solid and stalwart yeomanry of Wythe who had gathered in the village to attend Court. There was no sign of no vagabondism to be seen. Everybody seemed to have some business to attend to, and was attending to it, and everybody seemed to be well to-do in the world.

It is a good sign of the welfare of a community to see such men assembled together. Sauntering about under the long porch of the hotel, wa took one more thorough inspection of tne immense fancy show-bill of the circus and manegerie, which we had seen at every store as far Abingdon, and whose portraits of learned horses and ponies, clowns and equestrians, and dashing holding females with gauze wings called back in some grey beards the spirit of boy hood and inspired an intense desire to sec the show I confess to some sympathy with much older men than I in a wish to see how the lion would demean himself in the mountains, what sort of capers Merryman would cut before the grazitrs, and how the lady in short dress and butterfly wings would shine before those the true roses and lilies of the Western vallies! Alas, we had to leave before the circus came Was ever man so happy that he wished for nothing more We breakfasted at New Eiver where we saw a catfish weighing forty pounds put in a box surrounded with clover, kept wet to keep him alive, and labelled to Thompson of "Our House." was apprehensive from the size, of his mouth that when he came to Richmond, if he were still alive, he would swallow I felt relieved at seeing that gentleman in the street yesterday These cats are abundant in New River, and have a monopoly of its navigation. They are so enormous and powerful that if they could be reduced to submission and employed as lugs a vast transportation could be conducted by them Our party was destined for the Montgomery White Sulphur Springs, by invitation, and left the railroad near the summit ot the Alleghanies, the road that leads to them turning off at that point. We were very cordially received by Mr. Mosby, one of the proprietors, and with him proceeded to the Springs, only a mile and a half distant.

There we found a vast number of workmen engaged in erecting the buildings for the place. The Springs and some 1300 acres of land were purchased by the company last fall, and the work of building was only begun in Novem ber. They expect to receive visitors in one half of their extensive place will not have been touched. On each side of the beautiful valley is to be a row of cottages corresponding with each other, and in the centre, not far from the spring, is the bouse where the guests are received and registered. Only the row on the Eastern side is now in course of construction.

This embraces the spacious dining hall, ball room, etc. When completed, it will be one of the most spacious as well as comfortable water ing establishments in the State. The company is spending money freely, and their plans are judicious and elegant. Hjckkt Ex all, of Richmond, is the Architect. A grand feature of the place is a railway, which is constructed from the Virginia and Tennessee road along a gentle inclination down the valley to the hotel, and the cars in which the passengers are conveyed will pass under the roof of the building before they get out! That will be indeed superbly comfortable.

Dr. James Kent, Col. Thomas and Mr. Amiss of Blacks burg, members of the eompany, joined ua at the Springs and treated us most courteously. An excellent dinner was served ap at Mr.

Mosby's for onr entertain ment, which of course under the stimulants of the water, the mountain air and exercise, we enjoyed heartily. The locality is very picturesque. Opposite the main building is a tall hill covered with the noblest forest trees of richest foliage, in which are to be promenades. will be a delicious concomitant of the pleasures of the mj? acclivity, of tbe mmiD building, 1S not without ito Uhllf Wh remirkAble semi circular tablei of earth about a fourth of the way up jta aide.

ODllvloua aM a rive at the stopping place for Lnrf lD a bout in the afternoon, tha guests are immediately conveyed by he company's Railroad tbe deipval ley for a mtle and a half, to the Hotel en 1 remember how the watering places in the mountains were overwhelmed with visitors last year, and how very uncomfortable it was at most of them in consequence of this excess, I am glad to see that there is an increase of the places and the means for the accommodation of the immense and growing throng which seeks relaxation and health in our mountains. The Springs 1 have just mentioned, are said to be efficacious in several forms of disease. Then there are the Alleghany Springs in Montgomery, about four miles from the Yellow Sulphur Springs, about three and a half miles from and Koiner's Springs, about a mile from Bonsack's, in Roanoke.

Thare are an abundance of mineral springs any where in and beyond the mountains on this fact I hey are mere plenty than Rattlesnakes; but only those i mention are fitted with buildings for the reception of guests, and these can accom modate several hundreds. For instiilce, our veueraLle ftiend Buford baa various Sulphur andtither Springs on bis land; but prefers to devote the meadows where rise to grass instead of making watering places of Lata iu the afternoon of Tuesday wo re paired to the Railroad to take a car upon which we were to proceed to Dr Kent's, four miles distant, to spend the night While our party were preparing for the descent by hand car to Dr. Kent's, three of us walked on through the big Tunnel, to a place where stood a shantie on a biph betik, in front of which was an Irishman beyond the middle age, and near by an lush girl with rosy bright eyes and a beautiful mouth, standing over a tub industriously testing the influence of soap, water and hard rubbing, on soiled A dialogue between one of our party and tht) Irishman took pltce, partly as follows: "Col. Garnett is going to carry us down to Dr. Kent's and may want one of these cars?" What d'ye want with the car, if Col.

Garnett is going to carry ye down to Dr. Kent's?" "Well you had me are smart up this way. What's your occupation Well, Ido nothing." Whers do you live 1" WellJ-whin I lie down and cover meself at night, me house is thatched." "Now, I know you're an honest man and not ashamed of your do you do Well Ido nothing, and have a dom sight to help me." The cars were again mentioned, when the venerable Pat continued: What do you w.int with the car Sanner and Li 3 men (the hand car men) are not here, and ye could'nt get anybody to fetch ye down to Dr. Kent's." "What do we want wifh anybody to fetch us down to Dr. Kent's if we have the car?" "Oh ho, well done Pat, (said the Irishman) ye're a slick fellow." And our party appearing we bade adieu to our communicative Irishman, observing as we turned off that the lass, who enjoyed the dialogue wonderfully, showed in addition to bright eyes, pretty mouth and pearly teeth, a firm foot and ankle, guiltless of either shoe or stocking! We proceeded down the grade at a rapid and delightful speed, to Dr.

Kent's, whose house we found to be the beautiful dwelling nestled in the mountains, which we saw and admired in our upward trip. Here we realized those comforts indicated by the external beauties and taste of the locality, enhanced by the gentleness and grace which adorn and preside over this charming retreat. There was passed our last night from home, in a journey all of whose recollections are delightful, and the reminiscences of whose conclusion in the mountains of Montgomery are among its brightest. By 9 o'clock next morning, we caught the last glimpse of them, and our best wishes for the good of those they look upon, sprang unbidden as they faded from the view "Ye and and itreamt" that grace The county "o' Montgomery Green be your jods and fair your flaw'rs Your never drumlie."
