.Tho Game of Chen..
The deep interest that ha9 been recently,
excited . throughout the country by tho
achievements of our countryman Morphy
in the ancient game of chess, will make the
following historical sketch from the Cincin
nati Time, interesting lo th reader, r-
The game is a Tery ancient one, and it i
now quite uncertain from whence it was
primitively ' deriTed. The most favorable
opinion is, that it was the gradual growth
of centuries ; that it began in some very
simple moves, of a few leading pieces, and
was brought to its present state of perfec
tion by successive additions and improve
ments ; the handiwork, or the head work,
rather of the many cunning players through
whose hands it passed in the course of sev
eral hundred years, Certain it is that the
game is known to all but the really barbar
ous nations of the globe ; and even some of
these are in possession ot analogous games,
whose moves indicate a relation to those pe
culiar to chess. Commodore Perry found
the Japanese playing a game very much re
öembling it, aud evidently, derived from the
same beginning.
The celebrated Greek Princess, of Con
stantinople, Anna Comncna, makes men
tion of the game, and saj's that it was de
rived by the early Greeks from the Baby
lonians. She also relates that her father,
the Emperor Alexius, who was a skillful and
accustomed player, obtained information of
a conspiracy against him from a friend
with whom, late one night, he sat playing
chess. ' It is very easy to comprehend how
from the Persians and Greeks, the game
may have readily and rapidly spread
among the nations with whom these enter
prising people were in so frequent communi
cation. The Spaniards are able to show an
early national acquaintance with the game,
and it is. from them probably that it spread
into France and Italy, aud then European
countries. That the game is of eastern
origin is indicated by the fact that the Per
sians show that they hare known it from a
very ancient period, and by the further fact
that the words check, check-mate, rook, and
some others connected with the play are evi
dently of Persian origin. It does not follow
from this, however, that tho Persians in
vented the game
It is not at all probable that they did so.
Indeed their writers do not claim to have
originated it; but distinctly admit that tltey
received it from the Hindoos, somewhere
alajut the year A. D. 000. There is then
corroborative testimony that the game may
be more directly ami clearly traced to the
Hindoos than to any other nation. The
earliest recotilod allusion to the game is
toil ml in the Koran; where it is stated that
Ntishiran, a Persian Prince, , obtained it
from a Hindoo priest, who communicated it
to the Prince's physician.
Tho Chinese date its introduction into
that empire In the reign of Nouti, which
began A. I). 537. One thing is well estal
lislied, that earlier than this period there' is
no historical record of the game in 'any
country? 'It'is 'written id the BrtiTiriiin tra
ditionary chronicles tliat 4lia -game was in
vented by -UsBft, or Nassir, a priest, for the
amusement of King Behram. ' It is very
properly thought, however, as we have al
ready suggested, that it had quite an indif
ferent beginning, being subsequently im
proved, first by the Hindoos, and then by
the Persians, and still later by the ingenious
expert of Europe.
The Hindoos accepted the Persian modi
fications, mid indeed all with which they
after wards became acquainted, and they have
for a long time played the game about as
we play, it ourselves. Lieut. Moore, of the
British army in India, related in 17U4, that
he played chess with some high Brahmins,
and that they used the Persau words Shuh
nidi, and roe, with their usual European
signification. The Holländers have a game
called Malay draughts, said to have beeu im
ported from the East India Islands, which
much resembles chess, aud which doubtless
had the same origin.' In this Malay game
the pawns move ' diagoually and take
straight for want. The crowned pieces take
backward and forward.' This game seems
to be interraedia.te betweeu draughts and
chess as we now play it. It certainly, indi
cates the progressive developement of the
game, so evidently suggested by its history.
Cliess has been the favorite amusement
and study, for it certainly is entitled to be
considered an Intellectual sludy, of crowned
heads, and the learned and distiuguished of
sill civilized nations for over a thousand
years;' aud it has not yet attained its celeb
rity and glory. . The early metricul iomaucca
ascribe jrreat proficiency in the practice of
the oaiiie to the knights of King Arthur, and
the paladin's And "chevaliers of Charlemagne.
According to Mr. Tuias, ho.se liook on chess
is uot auuVicutly known, the, first writer of
modern tims, who describes this game was
Pe Casnliä, a Ooniinicac Friar, ho wrote in
the. yea.r'-I'JiKl') and composed1 a treatise of
twenty-four chapters in relation to the ori
gin and nr 'att rio of the game. - This work
was written iu Latin, and was translated
into French in 13:10, by John De Vagnay, a
monk of the same order ; aud this version
was afterwards translated into English; und
is lUtiious tor being the first book published
iu melal types by the Caitoos in 1474. The
first author who wrote analytically of the
game, with a view to facilitate its acquire
ments, and to promote its study, was a Por
tuguese physician by the name of Damina.
lie wrote the work iu Spanish and Italian,
and it was printed at Barcelona aud at
Venice.! He was followed tl I5C1 by, ltuy
Lope., a Spanish., Priest . uf (.'alia, whose
iume: is attached to a peculiar 'opvniug
of some reptile in chess literature.'.; Both of
thesu writers were interior in their knowl
edge )( the game to iSalvio, a .Neapolitan, j
vi ho published an lii.st.ii i. ul :iuf 'anecdotlal
account of the aaiu in 1604. - Sadvio w as
a perfect M01 phv of his period, and traveled
about to exhibit his skill and challenge com
petition. ,
He visited Rome in 1 574, ;iid, euaoing
with liny-Lope, and Leonardo, a leading 1
Kornau player, l?tt them both.' Leonardo, j
however, subsequently beat Salvio in it (
match game played iu presence of Phillip i
II. of Spain, who made the conqueror a ;
handsome present. - Since the period of Sal- j
vio, works upon Chess, historical and prac- '
tical, have, rapidly succeeded each other. '
Among the most valuable an.l celebrated of -them
is the book of ' Chess Problems," pub
lished by King, at Strasburg, in 18f2. The
work, of Pbuidtr, published some sixty
years since, is well known, and is held in .
high and well-deserved reputation.
, . It is rdated of Philidor, who excelled . all
the London players, that on the 20th nf
June, 1795, he waited by appointment on
the Turkish. Ambassador, played six games
against him, aud lost them all. The Turk
had maJe the condition that bis queen, as
is usual at Constantinople, should have the
knight's move, and tins' put Philidor but of
his combinations. , . ', . . ' ;' s
; Chess, as a game or' recreation, '"has the
sanction of the wisest and liest nieu ''of the
world's intellectual history. ": As a mental
discipline it is an exercise' of .the most in
8tructive and efficient 'character. It giveä
play to the finest aifu most usetul faculties
of the miudi ' It teaches caution and circum
spection, ctiltivates the memory, strengthens
the "reflection and proves the exceeding
great advantage of coolness, deliberation,
aud that rare and ' indispensable virtue of
patience ; patience unuer ,uu circumstances,
even the most embarrassing and", vexatious.

DR. GRAVES' FAMILY MEDICINES.
. We do not desire to interlere with tha prolesaional
ethics of our medical schools, nor do we possess any
skill in pharmaceutics, but Dr. Graves has opened
to our inspection a mass of letters from his agents
aud most respectable druggists in all parts of the
country, which commend his family medicines in
the highest terms. They meet with a very extended
sale, whjch of itself is an excellent recommendation.
We always leet reluctant to make any endorse
ment of medicines, hut there are so many localities
where no regnlar practitioners are within reach,
and so many diseases which, require prompt reme
dies, that a supply of the prescriptions prepared by
Dr. Graves, commended ns they are for efficiency,
would prove almost invaluable. In all cases of
sickness, our first advice is to call tha aid of a phy
sician, but, if that is impracticable, it seems to us
that Dr. Graves otters remedial agents in ague,
cholera morbus, Ac, which may he safely used, as
be gives assurance that no deleterious compounds
are used iu their preparation. LumitntiM Journal.
Dr. Graves' auti-Fever and Ague, anti-Bilious,
Purifying, and Gatliartio Pills are Inaluable to
those iiitii. ti-d with any of these complaints. His
Americau Liniment is gaining a" high reputation
for healing all kinds nf ailments, both of mau and
beast; and parents should remeniuer(that his "Golden
Vermifuge," is a certain remedy tor expelling
worms from the system,
