June 4,1860. Wednesday I tirred in this] fand Exhibition! ly’e school. In| hat enterprisin town, ' I think ii nnoticed, especial! it Examination, a va ontlis now occuring. nee was large and all ed to conspire to make thii pleasant ahd interesting. Thi movements and bright coun ces of the pupils were only equal- by the brightness on the faceo! .ture, while Miss Minnie in her usuall gnity and grace seemed everywhere present with her cheerful smile. There seemed to be a mutual confidence be tween teacher and pupil, and through out the examination, it was highly in teresting to see with what promptness qnd exactness the many various ques tions were responded to, reflectin much credit upon the school. At 1 P. M. on the second day, a tempting and bountiful collation appeared which was discussed by all with evident satis faction, after which adjourned to meet| at the Court House at early candle light for the Exhibition. Much inter est was manifested here, os before the lamps were lighted, the Court Houae was densely crowded. The walls and stage were beautifully decorated with flowers, wreaths and transparents among the latter of which the word “.Education" beautifully illuminated shone conspicuous. The curtain rose and the exeroiseB opened by the appear ance of the young ladies dressed in white, blue trimmed, with their teacher in the center. Then followed compo sitions, music, dialogues, tableaux, &c.> Ac., too numerous and interesting to discribe, but which held the audience unwearied in profound interest and rare amusement till the hour of ten, when the exercises were olosed with a short address by Dr. Oates whioh was delivered in an eloquent and impressive The same being requested for publication it is herewith enclosed. Hart, The present crowded state oi c columns prevents the publication of the address above alluded to. [Eds. Cocrikb, Have we a Patridge T “Chasseur Boliemo” writes to th< | Spirit of the Time*: I have just read in the second article I of your correspondent, “Pog lieis,” on “The Grouse of the United States," that “there are no true palriiiges in North America." Frank Forester says the same thing, insisting that the game little bird, known altnoBt universally at the South as a patridge, is no putridge at all, but a quail. We have two Amer ican ornithologists—Wilson and Audu bon-admitted to rank with the most scientific and correct men of the age, and I believe investigating the subject as thoroughly as possible, and have placed the bird a patridge. Against such authorities I must have weightier reasons than those of Herbert or other amateurs for calling it a quail. To scientific ornithologist, a bill, a leg, or a| feather, is sufficient evidence from I which toclassily and characterize an unknown bird; and the Louisianians believe that it was only necessary foi Audubon to see the fresh track of nnj bird in order to give a life-like paintin; I of it. (Ask Thorpe if that’s so. There is a bird called patridge >n I some of the States, and pheasant in others, neither of whioh is its true name. It is correctly called ruifed I grouse—lebrao Vmbcllu*. 1 hope that some day we shall be able to designate our game birds by their true and proper names,-alike in all sections of the country. As it stands at present—the same bird having a dis tinct name for each diil'erent locality— it is a very difficult matter for a sports man to get the least idea of the kind of game be may expect to find in the part of the country he wishes to visit. The I same is partly true of fish. Let us | rectify these matters. Ax Incident or tiie Tornado.—A cor respondent at Buford, Highland county, I Ohio, relutes a melancholy circumstance connected with the ravages of the tor- I nudo of the 21st, in that vicinity, wliieh we have not seen mentioned elsewhere. Two men were riding in a buggy, short distance from Buford, and were overtaken by the hurricane as they were passing through a wood. A tree which was blown over fell directly across the top of their carriage, crush ing it and its inmates to the ground.— One of them Was instantly killed, while the other had both legs broken, and was otherwise severely injured. Upwards of two hours elapsed after I the storm before help came. During I this time, the suffering of the wounded man was terrible. The tree, which was a large one, lay across his legs, and he was, of course, utterly unable to extri cate himself. Ho called for assistance until entirely exhausted, and had given up to die when he was discovered and relieved from his painful position. He I is now in a fair way to recovery. The Great Supply Nation.—Recent I dicoveries of gold and silver in Califor nia, Utah, Oregon and Kansas, it is be lieved, will increase the American yearly product to above sixty, and per haps seventy millions, of dollars.— Last year nearly seventy-five millions, I considerably more than the product wore sent abroad, desides four mil ls lions of bales of cotton, great quantise bf ofbreadstufft, tobacco, Ac. The week lie before last a million and a half in spe cie went to Europe. It is estimated that the specie now in the country amounts to two hundred and eighty I millions of dollars.

The former’s testi mony was shown to the President and several members of the Cabinet. Among other things ho stated that he had been offered by Mr. Buchanan the Consulate to Liverpool, or the mission to Russia or Prusia, if he woulcl acquiesco in the policy nf the Administration; but he declined. Mr. Wendell testified that he carried ten thousand dollars in his pocket for wAks to present to Col. For ney, and if necessary was authorized to increase it to twenty or twenty-five thousand dollars, if he would accept the Liverpool Consulate os the mission to one of the great Powers of Europe, but Forney declined. Bgy-Tho reported assassination of the Tycoon lias not been communicated to the Japanese embassy. It is said, though, that a visitor indiscreetly al luded to the reports in presence of one of tho secretaries, who, however, dis creetly withheld the vague inteligence from the rest of the embassy.
