Tho offer of a small premium was lately made, through the Boston Congregationalists fr tho best essay in answer to sundry . . a ideations in relation to practical re ligion, and especially pointing out the soul's salvation to a knowledge of the person of Christ a point, we would think, involving the most peculiar fea tures of tho Orthodox views.

The Plaindealer talks wisely in tho " Have your trotting ceursc, if you w,Hfbut a any raic, maMj t ic snectaWo as you can. Keep the reins in vnur own haud. Admit nodisrep utable character. Allow no liquor nn the around. Trot for the sake ot the trot, and forbid all betting. Then persuade tho ladies to accompany you, and so mako the most of it. If these regulations are observed, a great deal of evil will be done away with ; and if you wont attend to nioro legitimate business, why wo are ready to ac knowledge that you might do much worse.

JENNY UNO AND TUB BIRD T,c u Howadji " of tho Tribune, on a visit to Trent Now York nton Falls, in a conversation with the boy coach man who ' drove Jenny over to tho Foils" drew forth a little incident which is worth repeating. After ask ing the boy if Jenny was pleased with the Falls, "he replied : jYea Sir ; only whin she was go ing to sec the falls everybody in tho hotel ran to the door to look at her, so sho went to her room and slipped out of the back door. .But there was something better than that, Sir" " Indeed, what was that I " Why, Sir, as we came back, we passed a little wood and she stopped the carriage an:l Rtenned out with the rest of the party, and Tom Iliggiira and I, and went into the wood. Jt was toward sunset anil tho wood was beautiful, bir. fahe walked about a tttle and picked up leaves and ilow eis, and sane, like to herself, as if it wrco pleasant By and by sho sat Irtwn sin A nl- niwl Kfliffin tt fllMir , , c, . . -j -i.Outor the County and not exceeding loud. She sings somo, sir, ana it .. b sounded a great ways. But before sho stopped,, a littlo bird came and sat upon a bough close by us. I saw it, bir, with my own eyes, tuo wnoie of it and when Jenny Lind had done, he began to sing ana snout away ie;, . sho did. While he was singinc she looked delighted, and when ho stop ped she sang again, and O ! it was beautiful, Bir. But the little bird would'nt give it up, and sang again, but not until sho had done. Then Jenny Lind sang as well as ever she could. It seemed to fill tho woods all up with music, and when it was over, the litt'.o bird was still a while, but tried it again in a few momenta. Ho couldn't do it, Sir. He sang very bad, and then tho foreign gen tleman with Jenny Lind laughed, and they all came back to the carnage." We had left the plank road and were approaching tho hotel at the Falls through fine maple woods. Was it a pleasant thing to hear that etory ? Was it a poor nreludo to the Falls ? I had not dreamed that the story of the Poet s Lute and the Nightingale should be n.itive to Oneida County no less than to Greece, and that its Po et should be my Callow charioteer, who may decidedly be one day Pres ident. When I sat in ray window afterward aud in the fading twilight looked over the maplo woods, and heard the murmur of Trenton Falls I wondered if tho bird ever reached his nest or was found dead in the woods without a gun-shot wound.

Are the Freemen of Rutland county aware of the near approach of the com ing election ; and if so, are ihey alive to the matter, and doing that work which alone can secure to them such a victory at has ever before attended their effort and such an one as (he Whigs of the Slate expect once moro at their hands ? In all time past the Whigs of this County have held a most enviable posi lion ; they hare never suffered a defeat Ihey have never been driven from a position, nor have they ever failed in giving largely that 'aid and comfort' which a strong Whig county should five to the weaker portions of the Slate. Accustomed, as we have long been, to the Protean shapes assumed at different times by the wriy opposed to us, and witnessing, as we so often have, the va rious shifts resorted to by them to steal oar ' honors from us,' it hardly seems neeessaVy to warn our fellow Whigs of 11 ... " I "eir duly at the present lime ; nor is the usual necessity seen for the stirring vigilance and the energetic action which has heretofore marked the char - acter of, and given success to, the ever irte and ready Whigs of Old Rutland! But, notwithstanding this necessity is not so ylainly seen,, it is, nevertheless, (rue, that seldom, if ever, were the party more imperatively called upon lo arouse themselves than now. We have a State ticket more unexceptionable, per haps, to the strong Whig counties of Rutland and Windsor, than any we have bad foe many years and our op ponents, well knowing this, and having leng since learned that the Whigs of these counties are quite able to fet-e to the arrangement of their own ' internal affairs,' they have, with a cunning pe culiarly their uwn,inade but little open aggression u(Kn our ranks, hoping thereby to chloroform tbe .party into a Mate of ioMlWity said stupor. This rlvi cf -tjptffllbro wc k rmrriH otrt hmUjjhout the S'a'ft rr,i " eh.uioo altered to defeat tho Whig, we fiml them actively at work with tlc t wings of their party divHW or consolid ated, as the exigencies of llis ee may eem to warrant, while, as the "AVM Star," in giving practical lessons to the ' I " Dow , .. wn in Windsor county, winch n lercely whltf from time Immc- h.i bi-en lerculv whlif moriul, it doe not matter so much what ourse the Democrats pnriuc ; and we have sometimes thought, t"t on inw nccount, tbe Arc was more recklts a to its policy; but in "Old Caledonia, and other counties where the democracy always have had. and.do now maintain a controlling tnjiuenct, a (oieram tpiru and unity of qction it necenary. tor ourselves, we liave olten nam mm wo pnulil lunnnrt Mr. Robinson t nor have we any disposition to denounce and censure thoio who may vote for that ticket." Just so. One would naturally think that the " NortH StaV," while ready to go for either of the nominees of the two grand armies with their two antagonistic platforms, would hardly venture to " de. nounce or censure any action on the part of its allies. But white we quite agree with the ' North Star " in the opinion that it " docs not much matter what course the Democrats pursue " in Windsor or Rutland county, we are not quite prepared to tay that this fact has any thing to do with the recklessness of . 0f Yankee enterprise ; who feel an in the "Age." There is an apparent torcst in strengthening the bonds that "method " at times in the madness" of this sheet, that argues quite to the contrary. We wish it would now, as in ( times past, make a few of its old fash-j inned assaults upon the Whig party and Whig candidates, and thereby arouse all nleepers to action. But as this is not down in the bill of performance for the present, it is to be hoped the Whigs will see to it themselves, and awake one another. RAILROAD. GREAT JUBILEE IN BOSTON- Tho city Government and citizens of I J , , . , Boston propose to celebrate-in the course of the coming month- the final comple tion of the great lints of railway unit ing the tide waters at Boston with the Canadas and great west and also the establishment of the American lines of steamers between Boston and Liverpool. -The arrangements for the celebration of this great jubilee are to bo made on the most liberal and magnificent scale and the whole affair promises to be made tbe occasion of one of the most brilliant displays ever witnessed in New England. The Boston papers publish Mayor Bigelow's circular, announcing a jubi lee. It i. proposed to hold early in Sep tember, a three days' jubilee, to which shall be invited the President of the ! United States with his cabinet; the Governor-General of Canada, with his suite and council ; the municipal officers of the citii'S and chief towns of Cana da and the lake shore ; the Governors of the New England States ; the Pres idents of all the railroads in xsew Lng land ; the Mayors of all the cities in New England ; and other business and official persons likely to be interested in such an occasion. Tho design is to entertain this company wilh a grand dinner, with an excursion down the harbor, a sight at the lions about the town, and finally with a grand pyrotech nic exhibition.

But not so now. With the more gener al diffusion of intelligence and the con sequent rapid advancement of the age, the further most shore of California is far nearer to us now than was Buffalo then ; while Chicago was, at that time, altogether too far beyond the " Holland Purchase" to hold any "particular place " in the New Englander's geogra phy. But with the present relations existing between tho East and the far West the social tics and the commercial interests, that so closely bind them to gether, a deep interest is now taken in the advancement of any project whereby the distance can be diminished between us and our western neighbors. With this feeling and with these views, all who rejoice over the success now bind the East and West together ; and who go for the " largest liberty " lo t,at spjrit of Yankee exploration that requires means of rapid locomotion, will be pleased to learn that the above na- med roat (,le jasti though not the least important link not heretofore under contract, in a continuous line of Rail way from Chiciigo to Cleveland, and from thence to New York and the heart of New England.) is now under con tract, and its rapid completion placed beyond a peradventure. We learn that the contract for, the I frrndinrr unit liriftirinrr n( tt pufirn linn . ,, . , . " .... of this road from l remont to the point of its connection with the Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati Rail-road, some 25 miles west of the first named city, has been given to Messrs. Chand ler, Redfield, Baxter and Drown, all well known contractors here, and who, under the firm of Brown, Baxter & Co., have associated themselves together for the purpose of going on with this large and important work. And while we would express our gratification in com mon with all friends interested in our eastern lines of Railroad, and all who like to see the "iron fingers" still pen etrating further into the western world, in the certainty now given for the com pletion of this enterprise, we would also congratulate those more directly inter ested, in the selection they have made in the gentlemen to carry out their de sign. These gentlemen are individual ly strong men and amply possessed with all the requisites necessary to con stitute them energetic, thorough and successful business men. Eaeh is a gi ant in himself, in his professicn, and that the work will " go on " under their u nited forces admits of no question; if any doubt this, they may be satisfied by looking at the works they severally leave behind them here, where they have, for the pafct two or three years, been engag ed in rectifying a few of tlie mistakes of Nature, and which, if it has not improv , ed the beau,7 of ,he iccner7 of Vermont, has added much to the comfort and prosperity of her people. f In answer to our friend who from the list of benators ana tne naroo of W.

The Washington correspondent of the N. Y. Journal of Commerce says : I stated, the other day, that the officers of the United States Govern at New Orteat.8 did not interpose any obstruction to the fitting out of the Lopez Expedition against- Cuba. They were, of course, apprized that the expedition was on foot, and the troops destined for it openly drilled. The Pampero was fitted out, open ly and without disguise as to her objects, and she was not required to clear at the Custom House. I now loam that General Twiggs, who is iu command of the Southern military district, and who had instruc tions to keep a watch over these en terprises, gave notice early in July, to the Collector of tho port of New Orleans, that an expedition against Cuba was cm foot. Tho Collector ignored the fact ; and tho day after the Pampero sailed, wroto to Gen. Twiggs that ho was quite unacquain ted with the movement. The Government is, of course, in formed as to the infidelity of their Filibustero officers. If the Govern ment officers are Filibusters, tho ad ministration might as well issue a Filibuster proclamation, at once. The United States Marshal for the Louisiana District is here now, and can tell the Government, a3 the Dis trict Attorney told them, that it is quite idle for the Government, to undertake to prosecute any mdivrdu als for violations of the law oi 1815, in any case where Cuba is concerned. In some former cases, the Marshal summoned jurymen to the number of 6vQv. and vet could not get ainry. The Government, or rather one of the Cabinet now here, has very re cent information from Cuba, in regard to the Spanish s:ldter8 composing the army now in Cuba. The substance of it is, that this army of 20,000 men is well disipliued, well appointed, well clothed, well fed, well paid, and in every respect, to bo rehed opon this is so and I presume it is Lopez, it not hanged, will soon take to his goat. l am lticlinett to think as many well informed persons do that Lopez effected a landing, lio could not have been intercepted by the Pizarro, or any Cuban naval force : for it is quite certain that no information of his expedition precceded him. The vessel sent by the Spanish Consul was undoubtedly too slow, and per haps may havo been taken by Lopez. It was rumored that he intended to take her or any Spanish vessel. Destructive Fire. A dispatch from Oswego, N. Y., gives an ac count of a destructive fire, yesterday afternoon, in the village of Fulton, by which property lo tho amount of 8100,000 waB destroyed. Tho Ful ton House, with all the buildings in the block in which it stood, aud all the stores and buildings on the west side of First street, adjoining the Canal, were destroyed.
