The Automaton Chess-Player.
The origin of this fignre, which for many yearn
made su:h a no;Ae in the world. ie omnewha enurious.
WVoglig de Kempein, a gentleman of Hungary,
Anlic Ceon,.iller to) the Iloyal thatcher of thle du
mainc i' the Emperor of Germany, bing called to
Vienna in the year 17tin y the duties of hit atation,
a acs preent at some experimenta in magnetltm by
one Pelletier, a Frenchman, who had been rcom
manded to exhibit before the Empreeo C1aria Theresa.
Dlring the conver"tion with her Majety, DIe Kem
polin, who hald honorably distinguaihedd imself in the
piaths fl science, hinted that he could construct a
piee of mech:llanim, the efli:et of whlich iwould he
more atriking, and the deception more complete,than
anythlinlg which his royal miwtrena had hIitherto wit
necedl. Hit manner in making this remark excited
the attention of the Empre., who encoereged ham
to mike the efloite; and accordingly within a few
mr thal he re-appared nlat the Cecnt of Vienna with
the Acutomotnn beswa-Player. The folliowing is a de
ncrif',cn ot the appeara-ne of thi fiiure, and of the
micrci in whlich the ganme were e-iducted:
Ui enterlngthe apartmucnt where it was exhilited,
the .\0iiomaton, na'tired in gcrgeoausOriental cn-tume,
wa seen .neated behind a ches board lwhich stotx
upin a che- hot about tlhiee feet high, two feet wide,
and four feet lung. The Automatln. the chair upon
wllwh itsat, acd the chest, were fixed togetber: and,
tre pon cantors, could be moved with fa,-ihty to
any Iai't of thie chanmber. The exhibition began by
oefnitg certain doors cuntrived in the chest, two in
feat aed two in thle hack, pulling out at the same
tie a long, ehallow drawer et the hottom of the
eheet, containing a set of eheso-men, a cushlion and
some cornterc. Two lencer doorin, under a green
cleti ecleen, in the body or the ligure and itn lower
parts, were also opened, anid the Turkish dr-spery
wiich c,-vered thenm was raised, so that tile construc
tion bhith of the Automaton and the chelt appeared
to bie hlly disilayed. In this state the whole apara
tuan was moved around for the examination of the
opectators; and to banish all suslapicion from the
mcct ahefitical mind that any living olhject was con
cealed within, a ilghted taper was introduced into
the body of the chest and Ugaure, Isy which the inte
rior of each wae rendered ill a great mettnre trans
parent, and tile most secret corner apparently made
visilde. The isame precaution to remon e suaipicion
was in-ed at the terman ation as at the commencement
of a gamie o chess with the A.utomlaton.
The chelt nupon which the figure appeared to lean
while playing, was dinided into twn nioneqnal eom
piartmeatc, which were filled with wheel, cpirinet.
eyiinders andl other mnlachinery used in tclockwork.
The interior of the body and luwer parts of the body
were a-in icun pied by levers, thbes, etc. After a
sii,'hient time, during which a spectator might sat
iefy hi. curioaity, the exhibitor re-clneed the doors,
wuounid up the mtehine, ilaced at cuibon under the
arm ot the fignre, and invited any individual piesent
ton a gne of ches, As soon as a chilampion entered
th- ilott, the epc 'o tile Automiton appcaeed to le
directed to the hoard, and aoter enme momenta of
nemnlg medit Ition it sloawly ri-ed its ari, mooved it
tcieaedn the piece to he ployed, efisuenaded its hand

" rorter qual as.ro rwira r r:,
Y qual ctra entre fau damas."
It was a Knight of Aragon, and he was brave to see,
His helmet and his hauberk, and the greaves upon
his knee;
His escoderos rode in front, his cavaliers behind,
With stained plumes and gonfalons, and music in the
wind.
It was the maid Prodencia, the rose-bod of Madrid.
Who watched him from her balcony, among the jais
miner hid.
" O, Virgin dother!" cqpoth the Knight, " is that the
day-break there?'-
It war the saintly light that shone above the maiden's
hair.
Then be who croosed the Pyrenees to fight the dogs
of France,
Grew pale with love for her whose look had pierced
him like a lance
And they will wed the morrow morn; beat softly,
happy stare:._
And, mind you, gallant cavaliero, how Venus conquers
Mars.
A Qruetionn of Some Importance.
In the Baton Rouge Gazette of Wednesday !ast,
we find the following remarks upon a subject that de
serves the attention of every person who has a sac
charine tooth :
hince we noticed the fact that the use of " fi-Sul
phite of Lime " in making sugar, might have a bad
elfect upon consumer, testimony is coming in on
all bands to place the questlon beyond the cavil of a
doubt. Practical experientre in worth all the theory
that ever rode " Mab-like " throngh the brains of
man, and this is being brought to our office daily by
old sugar makers, and person who ought to know
something of the subject, if they do not. All th.it
has been wanted-it appears now--to have had the
merits of this question before the public mind earlier,
has ieen an "organ." As the manufacturers of " Bi
Sulphite" are very liberal with their newspaper pa
tronage, the pres., has very properly been silent.
" What is everybodysa business is nbody's business.
and when you find a newspaper editor who does not
puff' his customers and their wares, then notity Bar
num or Van Amburg to come and get him. That
man shall be the ninth wonder of the world.
Doctors never take their own physic: lawyers
never go to law for jusntice, and we have yet to meet
with the divine who behieves that the aid of any of
his cotenporaries in the pulpit is necessary for his
own salvation. The same principle holds good in its
application to sugar makers. They make a fine,
light article for market ; it looks well and commands
the highest price; but when it is to sweeten tieir
own etolee at home, they do not doctor it with the
poisons that get into the article of cmmerce. It is
a notorious fact, that nearly every planter in this and
the neighboring parish, will make this year. as they
did ]alt, the suoar Ior their own uon the old plan,
withoutt the I,sno01 of bi-sulphite. We referred the
other day to the fact,that the refuse from the kettles,
after making sugar with this article, will kill hogs,
and endeavored to present the well-ascertained fact
that the stomach of man much resembles in its struct
ure the same rrangement in tihe genus hocico (vul
garly hbo.) which has to root with its snout in the
earth for its living, as his counterpart has to rot in
the air.
The hogs upon which the experiment was made
had to be penned ul, criblbed and conined, and it
killed them all in short order. Lelt alone, they turn
up their noses at this poi.on and will not touch it.
God Almighty has created thesm with instincts which
man has not, and henc:e he (mtan) is imposed upon
by ad,,lterations of every alticle lIe eats, besid.s
iome that hl drinko. In a Christian point of view,
we should like to, know how planters use an arti,.le
to ntake their produtce Ibrini a hall cent more in the
pound, that they know full well is isnjurious to the
aniual econolny We dare gay that the great mor
tality this a'usorts among children can hie traced di
rectly to the syrtup and molasses of the ibi-sulphite.
We refer to a w,-l1written artlicle in t ,-daty's lpapIer os
thi s silj et, igned "' S ." Having prciticall xperi
ene to sustain u. in our antagonism to bi-sulphite.
with thle nlked. tiruth it our a,.t'k, we shall strike
witlh or hlsnte-t and hcoave-t blows at the roe uit
this payinog evil.

The hamptonahlp of Chrns.
Ma. tlo:rrY rt PAtIr.--1Mtr. Murph fairly deserves
from his eountrymen the reward once otteed by a
Rtman tyrant to the inventor of a new pleasre. hi.
has inspired the u,rlent clubs of his native land with
sudden !ife, and kindled anew on many a domelti,
hearth the dying fire of home attractios. The
game of chem is fast rising to the rank of a national
pasion, and nothing but the outbreak of a Mexican
war,or perhaps the exploaion of those snbterranean
firet of which the good people of Cardiganshire, in
Wales, profess themselves to be constantly hearing
the warning thunders from below the Western waves,
can interrupt the trmphant career of the "royal
game' in this Republican land.
Faithful to our duty a journalists, then, we hasten
to lay before oar readers the most recent intelligence
of the progress which one gifted young champion is
making in Eiurope. To the kiednes of Mr. Flake, of
thin oty. the editor of the only Chess Magazine now
publ;shed in the English tongue, we are indebted for
the following scorer of Mr. Morphy's gap , recetly
played in Paris. There sorarem ettnetted from *e
forthcoming number of the Magnine, nad were re
teived here yesterday by the Afraica. Mr. Muphy
made his debtt in Paris, as our readeta kn in a
brilliantly contested match with Mr. Harrwitz, the
irt profesional hahitne of that clamic resart. The
palm in this contest was to he awarded to the fitnt
winner of tven games. Eight games were latyed,
of which Harrwitz won two, Morphy flve, and one
,wo drawn. Small doubt remained of Morphy's ane
ters, when Harrwitz felt himself obliged to withdraw
from the " pa-o.ae of arms," by a suodden attack of
indisposition. This withdrawal was made, we believe,
monob more honorably than Mr. Staunton's refusal to
engage with the Transatlantic hero ; and there is
rea. co to hope that the conflict may yet be resumed.
Besides this game with Harrwitz, the attention of
nll chess-playing Paris has been concentratedon the
tollowing eeries of encounters, constitnating, when
the force of Mr. Morphy's antagonist, his few yeara,
and the atmosphere in which he made his play, are
considered, one of the most remarkable tournaments
ot the kind on record.
Of even games with individuals, Mr. Moephy has
played twenty-nine and waon taateyfgtn, vin:

were beaten by Mr. Morphy in two gaes, and
hbroght two others to a drawn battle. b. SaAmanit
then ound a new comrade in amatenr,w itb whom
he underwent three beatings from Ptr. Morphy, with.
out even the consolation of a single "draw." Ad
journing then to the Palace of Prince Murat, Mr.
Morphy measured himself against a new series of an
tagonists, belonging to the highest rank of Parisian
society, the nobe!sse des echesn. We give the record
of three jonstings :

S tch a career of victory in any direction is qnite
enough to turn the heads of all Pario forat teatnine

have hecome for that space of time the observed at
all ohbsererers-a lion at honme and abroad--in his
ih.,tel, at the theaters, on the Boulevard, in short,
wherever he appeared. From Paris, Mr. Morphy,
we believe, travels east, to meet lMr. Andersen, the
S~le.ian herr, of chess. With Herr YVn der Leer,
hie is not likely to meet just at present, that noble
man hbeing at. Rio, in the capacity of Prmaian Minis

MaUELt. Se.cvTrrc..--In 1353. Michael IServetus
was arrested in Geneva and condemned by the Syn
dics for teaching pernicious doctrines. The princi
pal hlacphemies imputed to him were the denial of
the Trinity, prede-tination and total depravity. He
was not, however, a Socinian, but taught that Jesus
Christ was the incarnate Deity, sole and supreme in
al1 worlds, very God in his divinity, yet approaching
and mediating with humanity, througi which he'im.
patted to mankind the tI~dy Spirit with its virtues
and graces. He suffered at the stake according to
the sentenct of the Syndics, and his books, scientifie
ta well as theological were burned with him. This
was a miifortune, for he had anticipated many of the
discoveries of science. He was tile fist who taught
the circulation of the blood.
The following is the sentence pronounced and exe
cuted against him :

Ihe was held fast by his tongue to the post, sullerieg
very severe pain, and totally snalle to help or extri

and could only manifest his feelings by signs with his
bandd. Various applications of warm tena, steam,
etc . were made by some neightb,rs, who heard the
unnuoal noise made by the o:ler boys, and came to
learn what was the matter, but of no avail, such was
tihe action of the cold iron that the hold was even get
