the Lady Who Discarded Washington,
Bishop IMeutlc, in tils "Old Church
es and I-'iunilles of Virginia," relates
the following: Tho elder sMer of MM
Mary Cury had married Oeore Will
iam Fairfax, ut who?o Ii'jiim? she was
on u viilr, when she captivated u young
lnnii who paid her his address. IIW
affection, however, was not returned,
and the offer of his iiand was rejected
by Miss Cnry. This young man was
afterwards known to the world as (ien
oral George Washington, the tlr-t
President of the L'nited States of
America. Voting Washington asked
ptrmis-iou of old Mr. Cury to address
his daughter before he ventured to
speak to her.-elf. The reply of the old
gentleman was: "Jf that 1 your hu-i-ness
here, sir, 1 wish you to leave the
house, for my daughter has heen ac
customed to ride in her own coach."
It has subsequently been si id that this
answer of .Mr. Cnry to the stripling
Washington produced the indepen
dence ot the United States, and laid the
foundation of the future fame of the
first of heroes and the be.-t of men our
Immortal Washington as it was more
than probablo that, hud he obtained
possession of a largo fortune which it
was known Miss Cary would carry to
the altar with her. he would have
passed tliG remainder of ids life in In
glorious ease. It was an anecdote of
tho day that this lady, many years at
lor sho had become the wife of Kdwiirtl
Ambler, happened to be in William
burg when General Washington pass
ed through that city at the head of tho
American army, crowned with never
fading laurels and adored by his coun
trymen. Having distinguished her
among tho crowd, his sword waved
toward her a military salute, where
upon she is said to have fainted. Hut
tills wants confirmation, for her whole
life tended to show that she never for
si moment regretted tho choiccMie had
made. It may be added as a curious
fact, that tho lady General Washing
ton afterwards married resembled Miss
Cnry as much as ono twin-sister ever
did another.

Considered from a mechjinlcal point
of view, the merit of Gutenberg's in

innni.iipv. Itix tvDP-mold was not
mi.mlv the first: it'is the only uractieal
mechanism tor making type. For!
more titan lour ntinureii year- mis
mold has boon under critical examina
tion, and many attempt have been ,
made to supplant it. Contrivances have,
been introduced for casting fifty or;
more types at one operation; for swag
ing type-, like nail, out of cold metal;
for stamping types, 'from cylindrical
steel die upon the ends of copper rods;
but experience has shown that these,
and other inventions in the Held of
tvpe-inaking machinery are not better ,
method of making type. There is no
better method than Gutenberg'. ,

entire reversal of polar conditions. The
Southern waters must be drained otl'to

sphere. New lands, enriched with the
sediment of a hundred centurie, will
rise up to evtcud the borders of the old
South continent, and ' Islands joining
together will expand Into mainlands.
At the amo time tho Northern must
be in great part submerged, and their
summits and ranges become the bleak
Islands and the bold headlstids of a
tempestuous ocean. Central Aia. with
its broad tabic lands, may still retain
the name of a continent; but beyond a
few ontlying islands thero will be no
Furopeand but littleof North America
left. The Atlantic water will stand
live hundred feet over Itko Superior,
and will wash the base of tho Itocky

ments inaugurated by the Patron of
Husbandry for th.elr Ctentciintat-IJii''
campmeut will furnish almost the only
plan yet proposed for visiting the great
Exposition with any degree of economy
or comfort. The rates to and from the
ground only 15 cents both ways or 10
cents one way, are much lower than
any other arrangement propoes, and
tho chargo of 50 cents for lodging and
50 cents for each meal is fully fifty per
cent cheaper than that proposed in the
city. A Philadelphia correspondent
writes: The Patrons may havo hayeed
in tneir lock, but they certainly have
brains under their hair. When the
Patrons of Pcniiyinauia met in solemn
State Convention and discussed the
question of accommodation and price
within the city, they came to the con
clusion that things were likely to be
dearer than would suit either the pock
ets or the wishes of a trueagriculturist.

IlKijiaiorti LinniiTY ix Spain. The
announcement that the Spanish Cortes
lias adopted tne clause lu tne newt on
stitution providing for full religious
toleration by a vote 'of 20 against SI, is
most encouraging piece ot news irom
the land of the olive and vine for many
a day. It is not only a great advance
to havo secured relisrious liberty, but i
is a significant fact that it should have
been secured by such an overwhelm
ing majority. The Vatican will per
haps now perceive that the time has
passed when it would have been possi
ble to bind Spain through tho weak
ness or bigotry of her sovereign. Even
had tho younir kirn: been infatuated
enough to have yielded to the demands
ot the l'ope in this regard, tho recent
action of tho Cortes shows that ho would
have lost his throne by tho concession.
nnd perhaps precipitated a republic.
i lie deieat ol Home is the most impor
tant progressive movement that bium

gain its lost position among the nations
