FRIDAY MORNING. OCT. 4, 1807. Gentlemanly Highwaymen. From the Austin (Nevada) Reveille of Sep tember 0 we cut the following instance of stage robbery, that reduces the poetry of fiction to the prose of fact: We have received the following account of the robbery of Wells, Fargo «fc Co.’s stage at the Desert Wells staliou on Friday, the 6th in stant froih M" James P. Ciough, one of the passengers. The stage arrived at the station at one o’clock, p. ni., at which time the rohbers had been in possession of it for two hours, having bound me hostler aud the cook at the rear of the buildings. As the stage drove up to the station, three robbers, completely mask ed stepped out of the building and covered the driver and passengers with double-barreled shot guns, and ordered them to get- down. There were eight, passengers, who, with the driver, obeyed the robbers’ mandate. Having alighted nicy were placed in a row facing the building, anti iokl that if they looked back they would be shot. Their hands were then tied behind their backs by one of the robbers, while the other two held their shot guns pointed at them, and eaeh passenger was searched for weapons, but nothing more effective than a pocket knife was found. They then proceeded to tiie more interesting search for money, of which they obtained, all told, about S6OO. Nearly all the passengers had watches, seve ral of which were very valuable; hut the rob bers did not take any of them, remarking that they did not want such tell-tale trinkets. They did not destroy or take any of the. papers be longing to the passengers, or exhibit any un necessary rufllauism, but acted like reasonable knights of the road. Passengers and driver were theu ordered to the rear of the stable anc! placed under guard of one of the robbers, while the other two went lo the stage for the treasure box, wbieh they were seen to break open and search. Having finished this, they unhitched the horses from the stage and un harnessed them, and drove them into the eor ral. One of them ;n ked the driver il his “-out" team had been fed, aud learning that it had not, the hostler was untied and ordered to feed the animals. The robbers had prepared and ate i’leir dinner at Ihe station, and they told the passengers there was “ some left,” and if they were hungry they would untie them and let them eat. They frequently asked the pas sengers if they wore dry, and offered to bring them water. They appeared to be considerate rascals, with some bowels of compassion. They were communicative, too; they expressed their disgust at the extreme poverty of the passen gers, and said “it wouldn’t pay them to run round the country to pick up such poor crowds that if they had made a good haul they would leave the country, but as they had not they would be obliged to try it again. At half-past five o’clock the driver was released and told to untie the passengers, who got into the coach, and the order was given to drive off. It has been discovered by the Germans in Texas that the common bn<r which infests en cumber, pumpkin and similar vines, is the deadlv enemy of the cotton worm, and that the iatter'doesDot abound where the former does. So they are planting pumpkins, squash, etc., in the cotton fields to advantage, and the discov ery may lead to a greater variety of crops at the South. A mile or so from town a mau met a boy on horseback crying with cold. «Why don’t you get down and lead the horse?” said the man, “ that’s the way to get warm.” „ TANARUS„. ~ “ It’s a b-b-borrowed horse, and 111 ride him if 1 f-f-freeze!” whispered the boy.— Exchange.

Express, 30th ult. The Jewish New Year. Os all the existing nationalities, the Jew ish is undoubtedly the oldest, and is the corner stone of all religious creeds. Every year the investigations of travelers bring to light new facts relative tb the great area of territory which ancient Judea command ed and farther proofs of the Divine origin of the Bible, in the spread of the Jewish people. No land is so . remote but gives evidence of their presence, and it is claimed by those familiar with the interior of Asia that millions still live the descendants of the so-styled “ Lost Tribes.” Mysterious as the fate of these people are, the existence and very presence of a people, who are at once the evidence for and against Christian ity in our midst, is a matter of interest to all. Whilst the Mosaic code is the absolute foundation for all moral, criminal, and reli gious laws, the Christian people are too apt to ignore the fact that the descendants of King David, the “children of the covenant,” remain with us a remarkable testimony to all we hold dear in religion. Without them where would be the testimony to the re markable history of Christianity ? When ever an Israelite is to be found, exists a liv ing memorial of all that can be held sacred, and as such the “ chosen people,” although scattered, without a country' of their own —without possession of that Holy Land which is their inheritance, should be judged, not by the alleged, and by no means proven crimes of history, but by their own great constancy and faith, alike creditable to their birth and inheritance as to their intellectual and civil worth. We speak of the Jews as a nation—and a nationality they have.— Without a political dominiou or land of their own, scattered throughout the four quarters of the globe, they still claim to be the chosen of the Almighty—still preserve, with a persistency nnparallelled, the rites and ceremonies of their fathers, and look forward with hope and constancy to the time when, in accordance with their sacred prophecies, they shall be again collected aud established in the kingdom of Israel. It is a remarkable fact that the Jews alone of all nations, handing down the Sacred Books from remote antiquity, have in all their wanderings and wide dispersions pre served as a living tongue the language in which the Scriptures were composed. Be lievers of other creeds have original gospels in dead languages; only the Jews have preserved the original tongue of the pro phets. Every church claims to have a superior holiness, to be the “only saving” church, to possess the exclusive or at least particu lar favor of Heaven ; and such the Jewish church makes with a deserved degree of propriety. This claim is founded, not on the supposed force of the evidences for their faith only, nor even principally, but rather on the letter of the Scriptures. They can cite a vast multitude of passages which caimot be gainsayed, among which are the following; / “Ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests and a Holy Nation.”—Ex. xix. (i. Squares. 1 Week. 2 Weeks. 3 Wc-eke. 1 Month. 2 Months. 3 Months. i 4 Months. 5 Months. 6 Months “ I will establish my covenant between me and thee (Abraham) and thy seed after thee, in their generations, for an everlast ing covenant.”—Gen. xvii. 7. “ My covenant I will not break, nor after the thing that is gone out of my lips.”— Psalms ixxxix. 34. Under these and similar prophetic assur ances, t hey base their claims as the chosen and peculiar people of the Deity, recog nized by Christians as well as themselves, and feel themselves bound to remain faith ful and steadfast iu their observance of Moses and the creed of their fathers.— Among the most impressive of the histori cal services of the church is that of to day —the New Year With the Hebrews in thetk- Clays of government in .Palestine, there were two New Year days—an eccle siastical and a civil. The former tvas ob served at the time of seed planting—the latter at harvest time. The civil year com mences with to-day, and is observed by the many of the faith in our land as well as in all climes where- one of the “ chosen ” dwells, by appropriate ceremonies impress ive iu character and grand in their historical associations. They commenced to-day and extend over to-morrow —because in the lapse of ages it has become a matter of doubt as to which day is the proper oue to be held as holy. So to avoid dispute, and to be cer tain of commemorating the right one, both are held sacred. It is held by Talmudic,al authorities that this clay is the anniversary of the first Sabbath—of the completion of the creation of the earth, and is therefore held in great reverence, and it is by no means unusual to find a grand gathering together of Israelites in prominent cities.— It is so at present in New York, where, per haps, we do not exaggerate in saying there are at present some fifty or sixty thousand of the faithful. The presence of so large a body of people, who still cling to all that is ancient iu faith, and yet follow the paths of modern avocations with honor aud profit to themselves, must necessarily exercise an influence in our community; and we can say with just pride that such influence is of a character beyond reproach. The Jewish people, as a class, combine within them selves all the elements of greatness—in in tellectual pursuits they rise above the level, aud in point of probity and industry can challenge comparison with all other creeds. The age of bigotry, however, is not over, aud we frequently see the term “ Jew” used with the view of conferring obliquity aud disgrace. As long as a Jew lives that term caiinot be made to bear disgrace, save.it re flects directly on Christianity; for we are all descendants of oue parent, and the Sa viour himself was of that family and belief. We congratulate our Jewish friends on the recurrence of their festival, and cordially join them in their prayers for an ensuing year of prosperity and happiness. Encounter With an Eagle.—ln a solitary hunting expedition toward the regiou of Deer Lake, William Merthevet, living in the interior of this State, reached a point on a small branch running southwardly from the Carp river, in section 27. Early one morning his attention was attracted by a rushing sound, as if some tremendous bird was flying through the thick foliage overhead. He looked np'audtohis astonishment and admiration beheld a golden eagle, with outstretched wings, .just alighting upon a dead iiiv.b some two feet only above his head. Seizing a knotted pine stick, weighing some twelve or fourteen pounds, and about five feet in length, he struck at the eagle’s head, but the bird caught the blow on his wings and warded it off, anil immediately retaliated by swooping Irotn his perch upon Mr. Mertkevet’s head, and seizing his nose in his beak and, planting his talons in his right eye, dislocated me one ard seriously injured the other. This was accomplished before the unfortunate man could pick up his case knife which was lying stone, only a tew paces distant. His rifle hung upon the twig of a tree, also several feet ofl'. Mr. Merthevet succeeded in disengaging him self from the grasp of the infuriated bird, and bleeding and blinded rushed for his rifle and to seize his knife. A second time the bird re turned to the attack, but was this time met on the point of the knite, which the matt plunged iuto his body under one of his wings, while the eagle struck him a violent blow which felled him to the earth. The bird now attempted to soar aloft but the knife had reached a vital point, and flapping his wings with a dull scream, he fell lifeless to the ground. Faint with pain aud the exhaustion conse quent upon the loss of blood, Mr. Merthevet lay for some time unconscious where he last fell. After a time, however, he recovered suffi ciently to be able to rise, and bandage as well ns lie was able ;iis wounded eye and broken nose, and took up his march for the nearest point of shelter. This he found at the camp of some Indians, who dressed his wounds and cared for him until he was able to return home. | Keokuk (Iowa) Gazette. “Artificial excitement ” is the new euphem ism lor delirium tremens.

Can lie sold by the pound or ton, as cheaply as tho heavy hoops and less perfect ties. Kacli and every TIE is warranted perfect. As an evidence of'the estimation in which thesa TIES are held, we herewith append the certificate of the Agent ot the Central Cotton Press in this city. If a competent judge can he found anywhere as to the merits of Iron Ties, this gentleman may surely be so considered, as he presses thousands of bales of Cotton every year, and Ties of all patents are constantly pass ing through his hands. Ofhoh of the Central Cotton Press, ) Savannah, May 27th, 1807. ) Messrs. K. W. Sims <fe Cos., Agents for Dillon’s “ Universal') in,” Savannah. Dear Sirs : In my business of compressing Cotton, I have had occasion to examine closely all of the vari ous Ties for iron bands u.ed in baling Cotton, and pleasure in testifying to the superiority overall others of the UNIVERSAL TIE.” It is as easily ad justed and is much stronger than any other Tie. A Tie that is not good at the Press is not good at the Plantation, as nearly all the Cotton is compressed at the Ports, and a weak Tie must then be replaced by a good one at the expense of the planter. I have never seen one of your TIES break, though 1 pitched a hale of Cotton secured by them out of a ccond story to the ground without any break to the fall. Under these circumstances I unhesitatingly recom mend the “ UNIVERSAL TIE ” to every Planter, as combining the greatest simplicity, with unequalled strength. 8. W.
