IvEPLY or the \Kuitok. —The Bank of Greens j i
boro’ is a Wild Cat of the purest blood, and is, in
our opinion, entirely unworthy of confidence or
credit.
The “ Wahoo Bank <// Coweta ” is an institution
of which we never heard before, and after some en
quiry, have not been able to find any one who has-
We have examined the acts of the Legislature, and
cannot find that any such Bank was ever chartered.
We, therefore, conclude it is a spurious, bogus con
corn, ushered into existence without authority of
law, and, if possible, a worse swindling shop than
the “Wildcats.”

KxrlinttMe of Old t'oiii for New.
Under the law of Congress, authorising the Di
rector of tli - Mint to give the new cent peice, in
exchange for Spanish and Mexican silver coin, and
the old United States copper (ten’s, that officer, with
the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury of the
United States, has arranged with the Adams Ex
press Company for the transportation of the m-w
Cent Coin, at the cost of the Mint, to all points in
the Atlantic States', accessible by Railroad end j
Steamboat, and all other places which can lie reach j
ed by means of conveyance not incurring unreason
able expense.
We subjoin the regulations adopted by the mint '
for carrying into«ff'eot (his object. The additional
information may be obtained at the A dams Ex chess 1
Co.’s, office :
1. On and after tire twenty lit li day of May next,
applications may be made at the Mint Ibr <-t tits ot
tlie new issue, in exchange for “the pieces common- 1
ly known as the quarter, eighth and sixteenth of the j
Spanish pillar dollar, unrl "I the Mexican dollar,” at ■
the nominal rates of ”5 et-nts, I2> t! eiits and t,j cents !
respectively ;or in exchange for the copper cents j
heretofore issued ; and t se persons so applying will
be attended to in their eider, daily, between the ;
Lours of nine and 2 o'clock.
2. The silver or copper coins thus offered must
be in even sums of five dollars, by count, and for ;
the present, not exceeding fifty dollars ; and in the j
case of silver, the sizes or denominations must be
assorted and k*-pi separate, so that any one package '
shall contain exactly five dollars (or a multiple there- '
ol) of quarters, or of eighths, or sixteenths. Care j
must be also taken to exclude from the silver any 1
other kinds of coin than those specified in the law.— '
A memorandum or label must be presented, shew- j
ing the value by count, of the pieces offered, and !
the denominations thereof, and in the case of cop- !
per, it must stale that they are lawful coin of the |
United States. Such pieces of silver ly are mutila- i
ted or so much worn ;is to be illegible, or as have !
any appearaffee of being counterfeit, will not bo re j
reived for the new cent.; . but packages containing
the same may be exchanged at another office in the |
Mint for silver coins of Jhe United States. To pre- j
vent uncertainty as to what parcels fcontai: ing j
mutilated pieces or such as aie worn smooth) will be |
rejected, it may be stated, that if live dollars, by :
count, of quarter dollars, shall outweigh $4.800f U. j
B. silver coins of the present standard ; Or it the same j
amount, by count, of eighths, shaft outweigh *4 ..(I, j
or it the same count of sixteenths Bhali out weigh |
$1.30, th<-y will be received at their nominal value j
la exchange for the new cents; audit may save dis- j
appointment if holders will ascertain this before of- i
set ing th ?in, which may readily be don by the use '
• of an ordinary balance.
3. The reasonable expenses of transportation of i
the new cent, in sums of tit y dollars, to any point |
accwible by roailroaJ and steamboat, will be paid
by the Mint.
Frost in Max.—Postscript to a letter to the Edi
tor. dated La Grange, Ga., May 5, says : “A slight
frost this morning, although our latitude i« as low
as that of Burke county.’’
Baltimore Railroad Riots.—The Baltimore
Sun, of Tuesday morning, says :—As we stated
yesterday morning, the most effective measures
were adopted during the day for the protection of
the trains which left the city in the afternoon. The
result has been an apparently entire suppression of
all the demonstrative elements of lawlessness which
have been so disreputably exhibited in this affair.
Peace prevailed along the line of the route, and
tbrougli some induem-e, consistent at least, with (he
common decencies of life, the rioters olf the day
have been as suddenly withdrawn ns they- were sud
denly developed full blown for outlawry and de
struction.
We cannot, at this moment, conjecture, what •
further action will transpire in connection with the
affair ; but we may reasonably expect that a tho
rough investigation will be had through some of the
appointed processes for I lie exercise of authority.
In the meantime, we shall endeavor to keep our
readers informed of events as they nmy transpire in !
the future. We earnestly hope that so disgraceful
an erreute is at an end. We cannot cultivate fa- i
miliarity with such transactions but at the cost of
the dearest interests ot society.
Tnfc National Hotel Poisoning.—lt has been
stated by a Northern journal, and the especial at
tention of the Washington Union has been called to
the statement, that President Buchanan, when
visiting the National Hotel, received a note w arn
ing him against partaking of food at that estab
lisbinent. If this is only one of the thousand base
less rumors connected with the deplorablecalamity,
it must be quite easy for the Union to contradict it
on authority. We have as yet seen no such contra
diction.
Accounted For.—The Cincinnati Times unlocks
the secret of the elopement of Miss Martin with
Boyd, thus; She (Miss Martin) has been of late
under the care of two maiden aunts, who have
. raised her in total seclusion from company. M iss
Bailie became acquainted with Boyd about a month
since, and notwithstanding the vigilance of her
guardians, managed to have stolen interviews with
him at certain intervals.
Snowdrifts on May Day.—The drifts, says
the Hanford (C>inn.) Times, of the Ist instant, are
still deep in Norfolk and the hilly portions of the
State along the Massachusetts line, although it is
now the Ist of May. Oil Wednesday, we learn by
the post riders, the snow was five feel deep in i
the road in the northwest part of Norfolk, and
travel was still impeded ; while the drifts m’ New
Maribors, over the Massachusetts hue were six feet
deep.
Damages for Seduction.—At Utica, Michigan,
an action brought for seduction lias been brought
by Mary Abrams against Richard It. Jones. The
plaintiff is a youDg lady of rare personal beauty, but
poor parentage. The defendant has wealthy con
nections, who opposed the promised marriage. The
jury touud a verdict of SL,B<)O damages for plain
tiff.

F rear of Lightning.—The house of Mr. Well®
near Wauoolda, Illinois, was struck by lightning a
week ago last Sunday. The electric shock follow
•d the stove pipe into the bouse and exploded in the
room in which the family were sitting. One of the
men was struck and burned in several places, and
• the sole of one of his boot* were torn off. Another
man was somewhat burned, and strongly shocked.

the qualities of forecast *ud wisdom which distin- *

we deem that position itself to be. and ta a iiieturieal

I !::*vc just doucluded and signed,” Fays the
a treaty iof peace with England, and this
negotiation has left in my mind a painful sentiment.
We have recognised the independence of the En
glish colonies, and that is to me a subject of grief
arid of dread. France has saw possessions iu Ame
rica . but she ought to have remembered that Spain,
lier intimate ally, has matiy, which now remain ex
posed to terrible convulsions. I will not stop to ex
amine the opinion of statesmen, as well countrymen
as foreigners, who agree with me in estimation of
the intnnric difficulty of preserving our domination
in America Without entering into those consider
ations it suffices merely to speak of the perils with
which w e are menaced, on the siue of the new pow
er just created in a part of the earth where no other
power existed capable of wi hstauding its progress.
This new federal republic baa come iuto being a
pigmy, so to speak, and in order to attain its inde
pendence has needed the support and the forces- of
two great powers, Fiance and Spain. The day is
at hand when in those regions it will be a giant—a
terrible Colossus Then it will forget the benefits
which it has received from ua, and will think only
of its own aggrandisement. The liberty ot con
science—the facility of establishing new populations
in immense torritor.es, and the peculiar advantages
held forth by the new government, will attract
thither cultivators and artisans of all nations, since
men rush in pursuit of fortune; and thus, in a few
years, we shall witness with sorrow the menacing
existence of the anticipated Colossus. The first
step of this power, when it shall have grown to
strength, will be to possess ilself of the Fforidas, in
order to command the Gulf ot Mexico. Atier hav
ing thus interposed itself in the way of our com

great empire, which it will not be possible to defend
against a formidable power, established on the same
continent, and, what ia more, conterminous with |t
I These apprehensions are well founded, and cannot

before then, revolutions still more disastrous should

Commenting upon this extraordinary passage,_in
which {tie comprehensive forecast bears the simili
tude oi prophecy 1 , Mr. Cushing continues :

Beginning of the Cunningham Trial.—The
trial of Mrs. Cunningham, for the murder of Dr.
Burdell, commenced in New York Monday morning.
The Tribune, of that afternoon, says :
“The Court room above the Court of Sessions in
the larger of the law buildings in the Park was
crowded this morning long before 11 o’clock, the
hour appointed or the initiatory proceedings in the
trial of Mrs. Cunningham. The large doors between
that and the opposite room were opened, aud the
curiosity of the public filled both rooms to their
greatest capacity. Every lawyer who had a brief,
and many who had not, were there. Three or four
deeply veiled ladies in the corner, at the right of the
Judge, were the aim of all eyes, and there was a
decided buzz of expectation through the room. Mrs.
Cunningham took a seat behind her c unsel. She
was dressed in deep mourning, had very red cheeks,
aud lieid' ker head mildly 011 one side.'
Small Pox.—Ttie Griffin Empire State of the
6th instant aaylf:—We are happy to be able, in this
issue of our paper, to announce the disappearance
! of this disease in our city. The report of the atten
ding physician, as well as the members of the two
families in which it has for several weeks existed, is,
that all la well. It has now been two weeks or more’
since the last case appeared, and we are justified in the
hooe, that there is an end to this pest, iu our midst
! W* are not of those who are wont “to hallow before
' they are out of the woods ;” and while we indulge
] in the hope above expressed, we admit that we are
not entirely free from danger. We renew the
pledge so often given heretofore, that our readers
shall be faithfully posted up, on this subject.
Constitutional Amendments.—The people of
Massachusetts voted ou Friday last on amendments
to the State Constitution proposed by the Legisla
lure. The amendments were adopted by large ag
gregate majorities. They are :
1. That every voter shall be able to read the Con
stitution in the English language, and to write his
own name.
2. Limits the House of Representatives to 210
members, to be elected by districts.
3. Provides for the choice of forty Senators in sin
gle districts, instead of counties as heretofore.
A Pelf for the Populace.—The Scientific
American gives a v ery simple mode of examining
the Satellites of the planet Jupiter, the means used
beiug so common as to be within the reach of all.
It says :
Every person can view them, by reflection, using
a common looking-glass for th • purpose. On a
clear night lake it looking glass, and—either at the
window or 01R of doors—so place it as to receive
the impression of the planet. By a close examina
tion of the planet as reflected in the glass, all its
salellites will also be observed, provided none of
them are eclipsed. It is rather remarkable, how
ever, that although these satellites can thus be seen,
while they cannot be seen by the naked eye, that
neither Venus Dor the moon can be seen sc distinct
ly by reflection as they can be by observing them
with the naked eye.
Remarkable Mirage.—The Oswego Times
say* that the phenomenon of mirage on Lake Onta
rio was witnessed on Suud&y to a degree never
heard ot. From the high point near the Fort, Prince
Edward's Island, completely across the lake on the
Canadian shore, could be seen distinctly. The
Duck and Gallon islands w ere so plainly marked
out that the trees and small objects on the shore
were plainly seen. Even the ice in the Stony
Island passage, leading to Sackett's Harbor was
visible.

a iiJ>o<! that journal with the following commamca
tic®, showing tbe difference between the Demo
ct'Atic and American parties. It is full of truth, and
should be treasured by every voter, who bu at
heart tbe interests of the country :
Ist. Modern Democracy, for party ends alone,
eucourages the influx of a class of foreigners whose
general character wholly unfits them for discharging
the duties, while they are clamorous for the rights
a>*d privilege* of citizens.
The American party oppose this policy as sub
versive of ail moderate, conservative Govern
ments
lid Modern Democracy advocates tbe odious
doctrine that unnaturalized foreigners have an
eqlual right a itb native-born citizens, to our public
lauds, it they have been but one week or one day
in our territories; and that, while thus uuuatural-
Ded, and while totally ignorant of our institutions
and laws, they shall enjoy, equally, with the native
born citizen, the right of suffrage, and thus decide
tbe most delicite and sacred: questions of govern
ment pertaining to our social and domestic rela
tions.
The American party denounce such demagogue
ism as unworthy the spirit of American freemen.
lid. Modern Democracy, by eucour&giug this in
flux of aliens, is stabbing the South in the most vi
ta) point; for these foreigners populate Northern re
gions, make free State after free State, and thus
strengthen the already powerful combinations
against slave*y.
The American party will not lend themselves to
measures so disastrous to the security of Southern
rights, and they point their countrymen of the South
to'the late election in St. Louis, as the most signifi
cant warning, that, where foreigners have tbe pow
er) they will not tolerate slavery.
4. They believe that the lawsof the countryshould
be made or executed by no man who acknowledges,
directly or indirectly, that be ow es to any other pow
er) civil or religious, a higher duty thau that which
he: owes to the Constitution and laws of this.
(The nature of tbe present Mormon troubles most
Ibjribly illustrate the necessity of this policy: and
the present Administration will yet be compelled to
admit it, if it shall attempt tjo enforce, iu X’tah, an
obedience to the lawsof this Government.
6. Modem Democracy rejects the old Jeffersonian
doctrine, that “the patronage of the General Go
vornmeiit should not be brought into conflict, with
the freedom of elections but from the President
down to village poet masters, it boldly and unblush
ingly avows the Marcy and Van Buren doctrine
that, “to the victors belong the spoils, - ’ and that
this “patronage’’should be used to promote party
and personal ends, and to maintain tbe “succes-
B.ijn." r
6. Modern Democracy (South) oppose the con
struction of the Pacific Railroad bv the General Go
vernment, while it annually gives away millions of
aeirea of the public lands to toreigners and to pri ,
vsite companies for the construction of improve
ments entirely local.
The American narty advocate this Pacific Rail
roftd as a National work, and assert that, if it be
constitutional to give away the public lands for the
construction ot local raiitoads, it is equally consti
tutional to appropriate there lands to the construc
tion of such a national highway as this.
7. Modern Democracy insists that the public lands
! are held by the General Government as a trust for
! certain purposes . and that the Government, as
| trustee, cannot distribute these lauds in a proper
ratio oetweeu alt the States.
The American party say, that if these lands be
loud iu trust, it is for tbe common benefit of all (he
Slates that the Democratic party has repeatedly
violated this trust in its reckless donations of the
lands for local aud not for general benefit; that,
hajviug thus violated the trust, it is not for that par
tylnovv to set up its peculiarly s tered aud iuviolab e
) character ; but that it is the duty of the citizens
of the old Slates, whose blood aud treasure secured
these lauds for a common good aud common end, to
wrest them from the control of a party who have
thus abused their trust ; so that they, as well as the
)wic States, shall reap their proportion of the benefits
that may result from n fund acquired, by the com
fnon efforts ot all.
| S. Modern Democracy, inj Tennessee, is for ele
ivating to the Senate of the United States, a man
who advocates such an amendment of the Constitu
tion as will make the Supreme Judiciary of the
Union elective. Since the decision of the Died
Scott case, this is also the doctrine of Seward, Hale
arid the Black Republican party of the North; aud
the South can sec nothing in such an amendment
but a total destruction of the last hope upon which
she can rely for the impartial interpretation of her
rights under the Constitution.
The American party, therefore, will oppose the
election of any mau to the position of United States
Senator, who, like Governor Johnson, avows politi
cal opin ions so dangerous to the liberties of the
South, aud to the perpetuity of the Union.

A Volcano in (-eornin.
Lafayet i k, Walker Co., Ga , £
April 29th, 1857. \
Mu. Editor i-*-! sena yob the following observa
tions relative to a volcano which has lately made
its appearance iu Pigeon Mountain,about ten miles
from this place. I have not yet had an opportunity
of visiting the spot, and the following information
is 'turn.shed me by a reliable gentleman who
; resides near the place, aud has carefully observed
it, with the attending phenomena.
Please insert it, or what portion of it you may
choose, in the Ckiomclc Jj* Sentinel.
Yours, very respectfully,
A lea. Mickle.
Since October', 1856, the mountain has been oc
casionally attended with hollow roaring sounds, re
sembling distant thunder, frequently accompanied
with dull explosions. This was not very closely
confined to any particular place, but seemed nearly
equal for about a mile, extending each way from
where the crater of a volcano has since made an
appearance.
This roaring sound continued, occasionally dying
away and reviving again, until the fifteenth of the
present month, when, (after an abatement, so long
that it was believed to have entirely subsided) it be
came suddenly and unusually boisterous, and was
attended for the first time by a slight shaking of the
earth. After this date it was comparatively tran
quil until about midnight on the 24th, when tbe
eai th was violently agitated several times. The
citizens in the vicinity were aroused aud terribly
frightened by the commotion. When observing
the mountain they were more than ever terrified
for a brilliant light was plainly seen issuing from
the summit. The atmosphere soon became strongly
Impregnated with a disagreeable sulphuric odor.
On the following day a thick torrent of smoke and
ashes ascended from where this light was previously
seen. The smoke was not visib'e at night. This
was perhaps owing to the elements being covered
at the time with a very dark cloud. No blaze has
yet been seen to issue from the crater. It has con
tinued about as above described ever since, emiting
smoke and ashes without intermission. The crater
is thought to be about one hundred yards in di
ameter: No one has yet ventured near enough to
ascertain anything of its general depth.
Several spriugs in the vicinity have totally dis
appeared.
Many of the citizens are ve;ry much alarmed, aud
sortie are even moving out ot the valley through
anticipation and fear of a violent eruption.
remarks.
The principle of a volcano has for many years
been germinating iu Pigeon mountain. About ten
miles south from where the preseut appeared, is the
crater of an extinguished volcano, which appears to
have been in an active state at no very distant pe
riod.
Every appearance goes to vindicate the coiyec
ture, that it has been in a state of eruption within
less than five hundred years. Several persons of
credit have stated that in the winter of ’4B or '49,
the earth in the vicinity was in a remarkably war
state. Others have avowed to have seen smoke
with a sulphuric smell issue from a very remarka
ble cavity which is found in the neighborhood of this
place.
The Indians had a tradition, that a great many
years ago, there was a lake of fire in this mountain.
They pretended that it was frequented by invisible
spirits, that when provoked they would pour fire
upon their heads and burn their tents—that their
equhws and ohildren were stolen away in their
sleep and thrown into this lake —and finally, one es
their warriors, by some magic influence, charmed
away the evil spirit, and the fiery lake disappeared.
This Indian tradition may, I think, be plausibly
referred to the above mentioned volcano when it
was in a state of eruption. A. M.

Mon. W. W. Clarke, Mayor City es Cortngtna i j
Sir :—ln compliance with request, J herewith i
give you the following brief statement in regard to j
Small Pox iu our town. Ten oases have occurred,
six of Small Pox and four from Varioloid. All of
these were confined to Mr. Cminingham's family, ,
with one exception, the case of his sister, who con
tracted the disease whilst visitiug at his house, be
fore the existence of Srnail Fox was suspected.—
Three weeks have elapsed since she was removed
from her own house to that of her brother, and no
other member of her family has been attacked ; so
that we have every reason to believe that there is
now no danger to be apprehended from that quarter.
Every body ou Ml. Cunningham’s premises has had
tbe disease, and are now entirely well, except a
negro boy, who is rapidly convalesiug. If tbe pro
per precautionary measures are now adopted to pre
vent its spread by means of fomitee, we may re
gard all danger as past. It may not be uninterest
ing to add, that most of the cases were miid, there
having been but two iu which the disease was
strictly confluent, one semi confluent, three dis
tiuct. The cases of Variloid were, w ithout
tion, mild. ‘ E. H. Pringle.

Covington, Ga., May 4,1857
Sir ;—You have enclosed Dr. Pringle s Report
showing the condition of the Small-Pox cases in
this place. The most stringent sanitary regulations
have been adopted, and will be continued; no
measure will fail to be put iu operation that can in
any way prevent other cases occurring, and wo can
now, with the greatest confidence, assure the public
that we believe no danger ought to be apprehended
from the disease of Small-Pox iu this community.
Our population have been vaccinated. The houses
where the disease has been located, within a few
days will be destroyed or so thoroughly disinfected,
under the direction of proper persons, as to give se

[ COMMUNICATED. )
The May pic-nic at the residence of Thus. 8.
Metcalf, Esq , was an occasion of deep and Tire
interest to tbe young people (children) of our city-
To see the young enjoying their innocent amuse,
ments is always a delightful sight; but to fee them
j collected from the various walks of life—from the
lowly home of poverty, as well as from the "•ausion
of wealth, and assembled together upon au equality
—each made to feel that he is welcome—each catch"
iug the glow of sympathy that seemed to pervade
the whole assembly, was, indeed, a scene delightful
. for the contemplation ol a philautrophic mind.—
| And as we looked around upon the joyous throng,
1 we felt that eu\ iable indeed is the lot ofliiin who is
j able to purchase the happiness of so many ; for
| surely was his name written in kindness and love
j upon the hearts of hundreds that night, as legibly
as the star upon the brow of evening,
i May 4,1857. A Guest.
j Unconscionably Tough.—A correspondent of
j the New Y'ork Spirit of the 'limes, writing from
I Keesville, New York, perpetrates the following de.
j cidedly tough dog story:
i A most remarkable exhibition of cauiue sagacity
1 occurred in St. Lawrence county. Au eminent pby
. siciau, Dr. MeO., of Potsdam, was hurriedly called
| in consultation to a patient forty miles distant. His
I dog, a faithful companion and splendid specimen of
the Newfoundland species, accompanied him. On
arriving at bis destination, he found himself minus a
very important medicine, which could not be ob
tained iu the vicinity. The critical condition of the
patient would not admit of his returning for it. In
and this emergency he bethought of trusty “Major, - ’
was ever willing to obey his mandate*. The doctor
accordingly wrote a letter to iris student (whoslept
in the office), wrapped it in a pocket handkerchief
aud securely fastened it about the neck of “ Major,”
then dismissed him for home. Tbe intelligent dog
readily obeyed. Twelve at night found him h >wling
at the office door ; his familiar voice awakened the
1 clerk, who let him in aud again retired, but this
’ would not answer the purpose of “Major,” who,
having an urgent commission to fulfil, commenced
j pulling the clothes from the bed. This unusual de
| moustration alarmed tbe clerk, who, supposing he
; had admitted a strange, possibly a mad animal, got
• cautiously up for his musket. The dog instantly be
| came quiet; a match was lighted, when “ Major,”
with a friendly wagof the tail, approached, and With
a piteous whine attracted the clerk s attention to his
burden; the letter was removed, “Major’fed a
hearty supper, when the handkerchief with remedies
i was adjusted, aud the trusty valet set out on his re
, turn trip, which was accomplished before noon the
next dav, carrying the medicines safely, and having
traveled the distance of 120 miles within a day and
a half. This marvellous feat of cuniue fidelity is well
authenticated.
* The National Hotel Again.—Dr. G. T. Jack
son, of Boston, lias written a letter which goes far to
r sustain the report of the Washington physicians in
the matter of the “ National Hotel endemic.”—
Citing the case of a legal gentleman w ho contracted
the disease while taking depositions in the building,
he says:
This gentleman did not eat or drink anything in
that hotel, and yet he was attacked with the same
disorder as others who had been inmates of the
l hotel, and he suffered more than three weeks
r from it, aud was not quite cured when I left Wash
r ington.
This oac well ascertained case is sufficient to
1 prove that the disorder was not produced by poisons
i mixed with food or drink. I heard of several others
of the same nature, but I am not personally cogui
zant of tbe facts.
’ From what I waa able to learn, I am perfectly
> convinced that the disorder at the National Hotel
j arose wholly from gaseous emanations from the
[ drains connected with the common sewers, and it is
highly probable that the very warm days of Febru
* ary last contributed to the production of this pois
i onous miasma.
Ou the other hand, “The States, - ’ Mr. lit ss’ new
jouual publisned at Washington, says in its Satur
* day's issue;
> All tbe testimony that has fallen under our obser
, vation goes to prove that the sickness resulted
either from drinking the water of the hotel, or from
' eating at its table. The waiter at the ladies’eu
, trance declared that, having been on duty for many
i hours without food, went into the kitchen and took
, a small plate of 6oup, and that he was shortly after
wards attacked with violent pains and paroxysms,
which confined him to bis bed for days. Most of
the physicians it attendance on patients at the hotel
. concur in the statement, that all the symptoms in
dicated poison taken into the stomach.
Meanwhile, it is understood that such a state of
feeling is aroused in Washington as will lead to fur
ther and more stringent examination. The death
of M-. Montgomery, recently mentioned, has renew
ed the discussion of the subject throughout the coun
try, and the demand tor thorough examination is
very general.— Balt. Amer.
Relic or Olden Times.—Ex-Sheriff Darrah is
about demolishing, what irom time immemorial has
been known as the “Preston Mausion,” about half
a mile North of our town. The walls are of solid
stone, and thick enough to have answered for a for
tress, and each one of them has to ba removed by
the use of a pick, the plastering having become
hard as a flint. . A few days since, there was found
in the wall a will, feigned by one Jonathan Morri
son, dated over seventy years ago, so long since
that the family are not within the memory of any
one now living in the neighborhood—aud in that se
creted nook this scroll had been safely reposing for
near three quarters of a century. Among other
things the Testator directed his executors “to pro
vide a good dinner for those who should attend Ids
funeral, and give them plenty to drink.”— Doyles
town (l’a.) Democrat.
Horn Houses of Lassa, or the Cai ital of
Thibet. — There is a certain district in tbe suburbs
where the houses are built entirely with the horns
of cattle and sheep. These odd edifices are of ex
treme solidity, and present a rather agreeable ap
pearance to the eye ; tbe horns of the cattle being
smooth and white, and those of the sheep being
black and rough. These etrauge materials admit a
wonderful diversity of combination, and form on the
walls an infinite variety of designs. The interstices
between the horns are filled with mortar. These
are the only bouses that are not white washed. The
Tbibetians have the good taste to 'eave them in
their natural st&te without endeavoring to add to
their wild aud fantastic beauty. It is superfluous
to remark, that the inhabitants of Lassa consume a
fair share of beef and mutton ; their horn houses are
an incontestable proof of it. —Cape Colonist.
Direct Trade between the Lakes and Eu
rope.—Capt. Pierce, who commanded tbe schooner
Dean Richmond, last year, on her voyage from Mil
waukee to Liverpool, is having built at Cleveland
a barque of 285 tons, for the same trade. She is to
be ready for Sea by tbe 15th of June, and the Mil
waukee Sentinel says that Captain Pierce intends
to bring her to that city, aud thftre ta'ie in a cargo
of Wisconsin wheat. He hopes to ge away by tbe
Ist of July, and to reach Liverpool by the 15th of
August. The vessel is to be named the C J. Ker
shaw. Tbe lapse of a few years will, in all proba
bility, witness the establishment, regularly, of a di
root trade between the lakes and Europe.
Court or Claims.—This court opened yesterday
and transacted a great deal of important business.—
A large number of decisions were delivered, sixteen,
we believe, ir ail. In nearly every one of tbeee
cases, certainly in every considerable one, the de
cision waa adverse to the claimant. The court will
continue to-day in the delivery of decisions, of which
• good many remains to bo made.

FU Mobil* *Atunlajr M», a
five* th# following account of tbe effeoui oi iha
*torei, of liu Tburaday and Friday, on tbe city aod
its environ*: i
The Mayday of 1857 will he "ever memorable in 8
Mobile when storm* ate on tbe to pit. Just as we
were homeward bound, to a 3 o’clock dinner on
Thursday, the rain begin to descend in profuse
abundance , amt we consdentioßaly doubt if it has
fairly stopped for five full minutes up to the present "
hour. Certain it is that for no such period—night
and day included—could the fortunate possessor of
an umbrella relinquish bis hold of so veluabla a
spread, eveu where a more social spread offered '
him in exchange.
Such a continuous and heavy fall of rain the old- v
est does not remember, nor the records report. .
Cases have beeu cited to H 3 by veritable w itnesses, 1
that prove tbe fall of rain in the night of the '.tilth of i
April to have been over two feet. And after a j
pretty continuous supply during yesterday noon,
it began again after dinner to rain as heavily as
ever , and thus it continues up to the pres-ut writ
ing, while its effects are absolutely beyond descrip- I
tiou. i
To enumerate abstract n .-.uito, and give de,ci p
tioris afterwards.
While inundating every snot iu the corporate
limits, it effectually stopped all the usual supplies of
water for domestic uses.
Though clouding tbe city with cimirierean dark
ness, it entirely stopped the supply of gas to tho
citizens, and doomed houses and shores alike to in
ternal and external gloom.
It enforced a fast on Friday, even on those whose !
conscience does not require abstinence on that j
day. j
And it shut up the theatre, even before the bills ‘
announced it, the public required it, or the mauager ;
decreed it.
Sirauge as these propositions may appear, we are ;
prepared to prove them correct.
The Effects ok the Storm. —lt seems some- j
thing after the notion ot counting eggs as chickens,
to speak of the effects of a storm, eveu while the
said storm is yet blowing. But many of these es- j
sects are already historical, more are personally pal ,
pable, and still greater numbers are yet to be told.
At Point Clear, we learu that a tree was rooted
up, and iu its fall materially damaged, if not fatally
injured oue man and served another nearly oa bad.
The storm also drove out to sea a vessel loaded wii b
oak knees, and some even add a similar fate to an
other craft or two. How, like a besieging General,
it cut off the supply of water from the be'eagured
city—beleaguered with tbe forces of the very ele
ment it would deprive us of—was thus. The flow
of water in tbe creek on the Spring Hill road, near
by and west of the reservoir, was so great that it
carried away the bridge entirely, and by exposing
the main water p : pe caused it to break in two where
it spanned tbe creek. Thus the lull supply from the
spriugsas well as from the reservoir, served to in
crease the volume of the swollen creek. Then bow
it put the city in-dark ness is not a very di -similar
case.
The flood in bayeau Marra&tte, which tlowseact
of the gas works, had been so swelled with rain that
the bridge was hidden, cud the surroundings up
peared a mere lake. In the midst, like a beacon in
the bay, stood erect the gas-light that edged the
bridge and bayeau. It was a well known mark,
this pharas of Stone street, and much valued by
travellers; but just at midnight the insidious flood
sapped its foundations, and toppling it over into the
gulf, left exposed the sinull orifice iu the rnai-s gas
pipe, whence it drew supplies. Through this little
hole the overwhelming tlood soon made an entrance,
and speedily stopped all the mysteries of pipe-lay
ing between the city Hint the gas works The mo- ;
ment the flood ceases to overflow the poor muiu, we ;
shall have a smoking of pipes again.
That it forced men to fast on Friday against their j
wills is proved by the palpable fact that it shut out
from market the supply ot meats from over the
creek , and it shut up the theatre because little
Gutfrge Marsh could not get gas enough to let his
whimsical phiz be seen.
Fatal Accident.— -Yesterday morning about fi
o’clock, AYm. Hu.rows, foreman of the yard at the
Gas Works, and Michael TiernCy were endeavor
ing to make their way to the Retort Houses, which
; were nearly surrounded with water, when the latter
1 stepped aside from the deeply overflowed bridge on
: Stone streetauddragged the former with him. Both
men were whirled along the stream, utterly power
less, for above fifty yards, when Mr. Burrows caught
at the break work of (he old lank and scrambled |
into safety but his poor companion was hurried
along the stream, and as no more has been seen or |
heard of him when otty last advices came from the J
Gas Works, the worst fears are entertained of his
life.
The Newburg, N. Y., Tragedy.—Later ac
counts from Newburgh, New York, says the body
found naked with a cord around its u> < k, near there
has been recognized as that of Mi-s Sarah B' kuii,
of Shawangunk township. Her sister positively
identified the remains . but William Jenkins, who
furnished a conveyance for that young lady on
Tuesday to go from Newburgh to Shawangunk, tes
tified oil the contrary, that (lie body is not liers.—
M iss Bloom came to Jenkins to procure u couvey- j
auce; Jenkins furnished it and started with her,
but sue left tiie wagon near the house of Mr. Mar
ten at the basis, and since that time has not been
heard from. A post mortem examination of the
body of deceased reveals the fact that an abortion
bad taken place a short time l»-fore d< •*th. The
case is still in mystery.
Jews Changing their Sabbath. —An Israelite
iu the ti hades ton Mercury contradicts the report
that a movement is on foot among the Israelites of
Baltimore to change their Sabbath, and celebrate
that of their Christian brethren. Tne Israelites of
Baltimore have, os their brethren iu most of the
large cities of the United States, established a Sun
day School lor the religious instruction of their
young, and hence the erroneous statement. There
j is, thus far, but one Jewish congregation in the
j world that worship on the Christian Sabbath—the
j Reform Congregation of Berlin, in Prussia ; but no
j suchooogregati n does exist iu the-United States,
j It is true an attempt was made some three years
j ago to est ablish one at Baltimore, but it broke
i down after a few months.—.V Y Post.
Mistake.—\Ye received a letter from \Yin Peek,
Er {., of Cedar Town, Ga., informing us that the
j Mrs. Ward, the circumstances of whose brutal mur
der were developed in an article, copied in our last
week’s issue from the Temperance Crusader, was
not liis daughter, as was supposed—that she bad j
never lived in Ohio, ana that a letter bad recent y 1
been received from her,stating that she was at that
time in “good health. " We are very much gratified j
to learn that all fears, that this unfortunate lady was >
the daughter of Win. Peek, are without foundation, j
Injustice to Mr. Peek and his family, we cheerfully
make these statements. —Rome Connor.
A Gay Lothario —A good story is told of a fel
low of North Carolina. Having been put iu jail
for marrying thirteeu wives, he made his escape,
and was seen three or four days afterwards by a
gentleman who recognized him. The gentleman,
anxious to secure tue reward for his apprehension,
invited him to his house to dinner, ana then slyly
slipped out in pui suit of a constable,; but great was
his horror on his return to find that ihc culprit had
absconded with his own wife!
The Reason. —The reason said to be given by the
British; g iverament for tbe rejection of the proposi
tions of tbe United States government for the modi
fication of the project of a treaty negotiated be
tween Lord Clarendon and Mr. Dallas. is that the
government of Honduras had not yet ratified the
treaty of 1856, by which the Bay Islands are ceded
to the State of Honduras. This locks very much
like an after thought.
Redemption of Bank Bills —A few years ago
a case of some interest to bih holders was decided in
the First District Court in New York, on an action
to compel the Marine Bank of that city to redeem a
five dollar bill, which hail been somewhat mutilated,
although the value! date, letter, number and signa
ture of the president, cashier and State register were
legible. The bank refused to redeem the bill, mid
set up as a defense that it had been fradu’ently al
tered or mutilated, and that the plaintiff was not
the lawful owner. This plea, however, proved of no
avail, as judgment was rendered in favor of the
plaintiff.
Accident to Hon. Edward Everett. —The
Chicago press says that on the 29th April, Hon Ed
ward Everett having beeu on n visit to a school,
caught his foot on the scraper when coming out .he
door, and “fell forward on his face, receiving a deep
cut on his upper lip and otherwise bruising his face.
The wound ou his lip bled nearly all day, and at
one time it was thought would prevent his" deliver
ing his lecture last evening His injuries are, how
ever, but slight, and will disappear in a few days."
Outrage »n Milldury 'The house of A. G.
Randall, a Justice of the Peace of some celebrity in
Millbury, Mass., was invaded by an “infernal ina
chine,” at dead of night, on Monday. A torpedo
placed against the front door exploded by a slow
match, the door was blown to pieces, w indows shat
tered, and partitions shaken; but, fortuuutely no
damage was done to the inmates.
Washngton, May s.—lt is said in irresponsible
quarters, that tbs Administration, although not ap
proving of the supplemental Central American
Treaty as amended, and doubtful of the propriety
of wiUihbolding it, yet thought it but courteous to
the Senate to transmit it to the British Government.
So far as ha* been ascertained, not one of the
members of the cabinet regrets the rejection of the
treaty.
The entire amount of public lands sold and loca
ted in Wisconsin is about 10,000,000 acres.
Newburg, X. Y., May 4.—Miss Sarah Bloom, .
who was supposed to have been the murdered per
son fouod near Newburg, returned yesterday alive *
and well. There is no clue yet, either to the mur
dered or the murderer. Several witnesses on the
Coroner’s inquest awore to tjie body being that of
Miss Bloom, and her return alive and well ocoa-
surprise. The remains are still unre-
Albany, May 4 th.—The heavy rains for tbe past
two days have cawed another rise in the Hudson
nver. The water hat risen considerably since yes
terday morning, and is now three or four feat above
the docks, and is still rising.
