PHILADELPHIA, Sep. 15,1876.Not far from the main entrance of

Machinery Hall is a mighty engine,whose ponderous wheels are the embodi¬ment of rugged, shaggy strength. If Imay bo permitted an animal illuutration,there arc engines there that have thequick spring of the lion and the tiger ;they nro sleek, and polished, and fine-the engine I am speaking.' of now is incouiparrison to them-a grizzly bear or

hippotamuB. A sewing machine mnkesmore noise, and yet in these pistons, andlèvera, and wheels, ia the power of athousand hojrses. Turn your back for amoment and place your ear to the railing.You aro now in a position to catch themost delicate vibration. You hear dis¬tinctly the ticking of the watch in yourpejket, yet here work two mighty levers,a giant piston, and a ponderous fly-wheeltwenty feet in diameter; and yet so

noiselessly this leviathan move» that an

infant might sleep beside ic .md neverhave its.slumbers disturbed. The meststartling characteristic of the machineryof to-day is tbe utter absence of uoiseand the ease with which it performs itstasks. The great engine described aboveis for the grinding of sugnr-cane, and ltscarcely seems as if so much power wouldbc required tor such a purpose.A little beyond the sugar mill we como

to the ice boats. Elegant affairs theyare. On good ice and with a fair windthey are capable of making their seventymiles an hour. Ploughs for cutting iceand providing ils with those luxuries ofice cream, not to mention smashes, Ban¬

gerees, cobblers, and all those fascinatingheverages in which the average-Atnericandoth so much delight. It 'would' appearthat there ia nothing in the range ofhousehold economy which is consideredtoo insignificant for American genius.One man devotes his life to the successof a double-action rolling-pin, and no-other to the improvement of a two-storypepper-box. Washing machines innu¬merable have lifted thc load of Atlas fromthc weary shoulders of the. housewife;and now blue Monday comes aroundwithout it« angry terrors-thanks to thelabors of these unwearied benefactors ofmankind. Who does not recollect thetime when in bia -nisorable boyhood hewas bounced out of bed at five o'clockin the morning to griud tho coffee, andhow you stood oil n candle box to do it,and the mill was screwed so tight youcould hardly turn it, and bow the handlecame off and the box upset, and rubbingyour shins you said "cuss" words thatyou didn't want tho old man to bear.These reflections were induced by lookingat a coffee mill made by tho EnterpriseManufacturing-Company of Philadelphia.Why did not they invent it thirty yearsago? What lickings they might havesaved nie. The mill is a highly orna¬mental affair, with a couplo of fly-whcèls,and so admirably is it constructed thatwhen you once set it going it wouldmost run itself. Aud then there was awonderful faecet, by the arrangement ofwhich you could mea- ure any amount ofmolasses or syrup from a half-pint to adozen gallons; a marvelous cheese knife,with* which you could cut off half a

pound to a half a cheese} a tohmiico cut¬ter that could nip a plug of cavendish intwo as easy as if it were browr. paper;presses for all kinda of meat and fruits,and something that will mako woman¬kind rejoice so long as their, husbnnds«hsll wear white shirts anki.ithoir own

dimity has to bo immaculato. This greatinvention ia a sad iron ; I think it ought,to be called a glad iron ; tho handle is ofwood and round liko the handle on a

carpenter's plane, it takes off from thehon while it is heating ; no burned Ang¬ers, no hl.ist-rcd bands, no inward swear-tog when they would have you think

Walters* great printing press from Eng¬land occupies a position a little north¬east of the centre. It ÍB a wonderfulpiece of mechanism in one sense, but itmakes more noise at its work then all therest of the. roa¿h|aery in the great italipnt together, including the 'rent Corlisengine. In contradistinction to tia*,there is another press ot the great Exhi¬bition which is the eighth wonder of theworld. I refer to the new Campbellpress, the like of which has never beenBeen since the world began. All of thebest printing presses aro large, heavyand cumbersome ; even thc Bullock's andBrewster's prestes, and the most improvedHoes are filled With com ni ¡catee: machi fie¬

ry and innumerable vh -els ; but here isa press occupying comparatively littlespace, a mere skeleton na regards ma¬

chinery, and yet doing work that ,thewildest dreamer never dared to hope.The forms arc prepared, thc rollers areadjusted and the engineer .ötaftdB at hispost with the lover in his hand. Heturns it gently backward and the wayahe goes at twenty thousand,, an hour,printed on both sides a« vnce,. folded,registered and piled up rmdy for thenewsboys to take under h ir arms andpeddle in thc streets, x 'ave watchedthe improvements in print.ug presses foimany years, and there is no machinewhich human genius his developed thatfill:; me with Buch reverence and admira¬tion. There must be a point of perfec¬tion somewhere, and it seemed to me thatthia morning, as I-stood in the presenoof this monarch of mechanical skill, th«iaventor might inscribe above it, "ne pinulirs," satisfied that lu the mutations oall coming time its superior trill neve,be discovered.

Directly in the centre of the buildingand near the north entrance, which facethe lake, is another wonderful labor-saving invention, known os the America)type writer. See that splendid-lookingdark-eyed woman who sits by tho machine, and plays upon it like a grantpiano ; watch how deftly her fingers fl;over the yielding keys. For a momen

Thc T-.e Story of Southern Disorders.While Governor Chamberlain of South

Carolina is plotting with tho Washing¬ton conspirators for the overthrow of fra?government, not in the South ouly, butin tho whole country, his adjutants arobusily engaged nt home in stirring uptheir negro adherents to murder ana riot.Our despatches tell the story of the scan¬dalous proceedings in tho street:; ofCharleston during Wednesday night, andof the outrages inflicted on the peacea¬ble laborers of thc Corabaheo ricefields for a week past. We have alreadyprinted full accounts of tho intimidationpracticed against Democratic negroes iosi! pñrts G> the South, but in no South¬ern State bas this proscription been sobitter and relentless as in South Carolinaand Louisiana. Taught by the exampleof their white leaders that thc laws areaa mockery and a sham, thé* lower anddesperate classes of ho colored peoplehesitate ot nb crime to further theirabandoned ends. The record of everyweek in "the Prostrate State" is a shock¬ing series of arsons, outrages and mur-den which pales the storj tf Ireland un¬der English rule by contrast So com¬mon have they become, and so hopelessdre the white people of relief from thoseto whom the administration of the lawsÍ8 committed, that these crimes are'suf¬fered to g..» almost without protest. Inone instance only, of late, have the re¬spectable citizens taken the law into theirown hands and inflicted a punishmentthat would seem altogether incommensu¬rate with the immediate offense, butwhich was intensified by the recollectionof innumerable atrocities in the past,lt has happened that very many colored

Ecopie or the better sort-those whoave accumulated a little property and

have an equal Btake with the whites insecuring good government-have an¬nounced their determination to vote theConservative ticket. This hos subjectedthem to persecution of the most malig¬nant nature. They are waylaid at nightrind beaten ; they are threatened withdeath if they do not resume their allegi¬ance to the Radical party ; they are ex¬pelled from churches by the brute forceof majorities and made outcasts amongtheir people. It has been found neces¬sary for tho whites to guard tho meetingsof these poor people from violence, andto escort tho mémuers of colored Demo¬cratic efabs back tc their bornes. LastFriday evening, in Charleston, one ofthese meetings was assaulted by drunkenruffians ssd croker up. This act wasrepeated on Wednesday night, and therefollowed a satuonnlia of disorder andplunder such as could occur in no Amer¬ican city uncuned by the rule of suchscoundrels os have plunged South Caro¬lina into a very aov.*s of misery, fromwhich her reputable people are nowmanfully endeavoring to extricate her.In Louisiana, tbe same dreary story re¬curs. Our despatches have detailed therecent murderous attempts in the interiorparishes of the State, and there is con¬clusive evidence that the ignorant nc-

ggies are acting only under the adviceand prompting of designing whites.

It is a desperate struggle in both un¬happy commonwealths. On the one handare arrayed the united body of intelligentcitizens, representing the mercantile, ag-ricuitural and industrial interests of thoState and aided by the better classes ofthe colored people; on the other, thedisreputable aliens whose only object isand has been plunder, controlling andsupported by the ignorance and depravi¬ty of the lower orders of negroes. Ontue one hand wo have Hampton who,like Adams, of Massachusetts, representsan illustrious revolutionary name, andwith whom are virtually associated allthe worth and probity of the State, andNichols and his colleagues, who repre¬sent the same vital elements of society inLouisiana-« On the other we have thoinfamous Packard and his associute,Wurmnth tho authors of every wrongfirom which Louisiana has suffered ; Pat¬terson, a carpet-bagger, rriio openlybought a seat in the United States Sen¬ate, and who thinks Scath Carolin "isgood for four years' stealing yet." Moses,whose record as Gorcrnor was simply aseries of shameless robberies, and Cham¬berlain, tho attorney for the plunderers,who vainly intrigue! for the support oftho Democrats and, failing, has turnedlipon them with characteristic virulence.

these are the men who wrung hisrevolutionary instructions out of the At¬torney General, and in whose behalfthese instructions aro to be carried out.Tho people of the United 8tatcs may seotheir chances of future greatness in thiacontest. Will they suffer the constitu¬tion to bc violated for such a purpose andby such men ? Will they permit ourfree institutions to be made a scoff and a

byword in such a cause? The helplesscitizens of the South look to us of theNorth for succor. It can still be givenby tho omnipotent processes of the ballot,whore the ballot yet stands for something,Will it bo denied to them?-Nao YorJk,[ World.

,* * * when the Governor of a Statefeels that his lifo fa in constant dangerduring a campaign, it is a very bad con- Iditton of affairs,* eke.The above is taken from a letter in the

Chicago Time* from ita Washington cor¬respondent, in which he gives 'his viewsupon the Attorney General's circular tothe marshals and an interview With Gov.Ch»mrM>ri»ifv it will be observed thatOhnmbcrriin regards the "chango" hedescribes 03 a personal oûenso to himself,and thc Democrats, in' making it, viola¬tors of an understanding between himand them. He also treats it os a decía- -

ration of war. Peace and" quietnessonly lay in the direction of Démocratieendorsement of himself. To put upHampton was to decide on a ''fight.This is all intensely cool, and shows theGovernor to be far advanced in his ideasthat the government of South Carolina ispureiy personal, and ho is'the only per¬son who is entitled to tho honor. Theother statement of his apprehension ofdanger is surely an exaggeration. If itbo true even that he has felt hts life inconstant danger, it i* not necessarilyfroof cr a "very bad condition of affairs,t may be evidence merely of an appre¬hensive disposition. He may have felt

that there WES danger when thw.e wasnone. The alarm and uneasiness of enindividual, even though ho be the Gov¬ernor, no moro proves a "very bad condi¬tion of affairs" than one swallow makes asummer. The Governor is not accus¬tomed to obstacles, not used to noise andshouting, except in the conclaves of hisOTTS political pôïij. He knows enoughof them to know, as be said at the lostconvention, that all their sound and furymeans nothing. Chairs were flourishedover his head, as the veracious Keegan,of TintVty'ê Magazine, testified, but not ahair on it was hurt. Somehow it alwaysh8ppens%. sa'd the Governor, that thetetnrhnlnnt «cenes serer result in hr."'..Iii like manner we would have him un¬derstand that the indignation of the tax¬payer, who pays dollars where he oncepaid cents,' will be kept within thebounds of a peaceful expression. Citi¬zens who have a withering contempt forthe corruptions, frauds, infamies and imbe ci li ty of the Radical porty and Stategovernment, are, nevertheless, underthorough self restraint. They will pro¬voke and engage in no disturbances, theywill continue to exercise forbearance anaself-control. But they do hot intend tolet this election go by default. They donot mean to keep their mouths shut, orallow the truth to bo any longer conceal¬ed. They will proclaim it on the housetops and everywhere. They have sum¬moned the Radical hosts and their lead¬ers te a great popular trial and judgment,'and will expose, in language that cannotbe misunderstood, although it may attimes bo rough and plain, and rasp theRadical conscience uncomfortably, theirmisdeeds, their misgovernment, theirtrickery, their debauchery, and, in a word,their utter unfitness to govern n State.They will insist that they shall stepdownand out;. But this ia not personal vio- jlencr», and it need not test the courage of jany man whose conscience! is clear and 1sereno.

Again und agnin he lcdhis men with the cry of 'Sccti follow me'in the face of a withering Are of musket¬ry and artillery until stricken down andmortally wounded, expiring on the field;of his heroic exploits. No mortal man,savs «MB- oye witness, could stand the fear¬ful storm that swept them."

Is it not an outrage that a newspaperpublished by a civilized man should .rc-'sort to such shameless falsehoods for thepurpose of sustaining the falling canse ofcorruption and vice? Does the editor oftho Union-Hetdid suppose- that michstanden can fail to disgust every decentmen even in his own party ? Can he be¬lieve that thc Democrats of this Statewill permit his lies to go unexposed endunrebuked? I commend to him theArabian proverb : "Lies, like chickens,always come home to roost."

WEÏOHINO A BRAM OF LTOJÍTV Á»JDHow rr ts DONE.-Mr. Crookes* mosistartling discovery of how to weigh sbeam1 of light appears to hnvo originatedsomewhat in this way.

Mr. Crookes at once, sot t<work td détermine tho general conditionand in ten ci ty of thin now force, wbiclresulted in tue absoluto knowledge thuthe beam of light was not only weightbut that it is possiple tb wcigb.it. Thapparatus for weighing tho beam ofUghconsisted of nn exhausted glass chamboin the form of a -horizontal cross, wltlame! of circular cross section.i| Insidthe larger arm is a glass fibre ni ai nt ai ne.In a uniform state ci ieos'oii Ly à spirospring st onè end,' «tía by » glass'stoppeat tho other, which stopper Ts capable 0rotation. The shorter arm ur tho. eroscontains in u like manner a stouter iibrbeam of glass secured nt tho point ccrossing to the longitudinal or torsio:fibre, and having at ono extremity a pitsurface of two square inches area, mid sthe other end a little cup. Inside tbchamber there is a loose particle of ii oweighing 1-100 of a grain, and outsidthe stopper is a counter recording thnumber of torsions or turns the giaifibre makes. Now, tho method ofproadure is ns follows: The position ot s d<of light from the little mirror placed 1the intersection of th« two glass1 flbnhaving been noted, the little iron weiglis lifted by means of a magnet, acplaced in the cup, which, when tinweighted, descends. Torsion is then aiplied to the glass fibre until tho beamlifted, Süd the dot- of light returns to îformer position. This may be called tlzero of the machine. This exact arnonof torsion having been determined and iequivalent in weight- ascertained, tltorsion is removed, and' the ray of Htis then made to fall on tbe due, wblcauses a depression t i tho glass beam,If it was weighted jy a tangible sustance.
