INAUGURATION OF THE JACKSON MONU
MENT.
Washington, Jan. 8.
The ceremony of the inauguration of the
equestrian statute of General Jackson, in La
fayette Square, took plaoe to duy, according
to preioue arrangement. Near the statue,
which stands in the centre of the Square,
were two elevated ranges of seals, occupied
by a large number of ladies, whilst all por
tions of the vast area was crowded by an
immense mullitude of citizens and strangers,
variously estimated at from 10,000 to 20,000
persons. The windows, balconies and house
top, in the vicinity were also thronged with
spectators.
At ono o'clock the services were commen
ced with an appropriate prayer by the Rev
C. M. Butler, Chaplain to the Senate; after
which the Hon. S. A. Douglas was introduced
by Major French, who pioceeded to deliver
an eloquent oration. Ho commenced by an
allusion to the statue before him ns the pro
duct of the genius of Clark Mills, Esq., who
had never even seen a sialue of the kind be.
fore,
The statues of Peter the Great, and the
Duke of Wellington, presented no such ad
mirable arrangement the hordes in bo'li in
stances being maintained in a rampant atti
tude by being bolted to their pedestals nt the
tail whereas, this slalus is entirely self
poised. He then gave a biographical sketch
of the life and Character of Jackson, and
concluded with eloquent encomiums upon
his ithiatrit.ua deeds.
Mr. Claik Mills, Eq , the Sculptor was
then introduced, and wr.s received with loud
cheeri.ig. He waived his hand to his assis
tants, and instantly tho veil which covered
the work, parted, fell and disclosed to the
view of the admiiing multitude, the magnifi
cent Bronze Sialue. Upon 1 tie mathle pe
destal upon which it stands, instribed the
following : Upon the noilh side the words,
"Our Federal Union, it must be preserved j"
upon the south side, "Andrew Jackson ;"
upon the east side, "Born, March 15, 1767;"
and upon ihe west side, "Died, June 8, 1843.
The artist uttered no words; the statue
spoke for him and amid the most enthusi
astic cheering, ho bowed and retired.
The Rev. Mr. Gallagher, Chaplain to the
House, then pronounced tho Benediction,
when, immediately, martial music and the
booming of cannon continued, w hile the mil
itary countermarched around the statue af
ter which they relumed lo the Cily Ilallr
and were dismissed.
Goi.n in Nkw Zkai.am). The Fiancisco
Whig of September 1st, announces that gold
has been discovered in New Zealand. The
extent of r.chness of the gold mines is not
stated. The group of islands are 1,200 miles
from Austrilia, and ol volcanic origin, sever
al active volcanoes being found in the North
ern Island. The schooner Creeper, which
brought the news to San Francisco, had laid
on for Port Philip, and hnd already obtained
n full complement of passengers, when the
discovery of gold at Msnukan, induced them
to leave for the new placers. The troops
which had been sent for by the Governor
General of Australia were also withheld, as
their presonce was likely to be wanted.
Asylum for Decayed Editors. The Bos.
ton Mail says there is a project on foot in
that cily, to establish an asylum for decayed
editors.
Senator Clemens is still confined to his
room by illness.
Senator Upham, of Vermont, is danger
ously ill.
ACJRICULTl'llAL.
For the Smiliury Ameri-nn.
H. B. Masser, Esq.
When 1 visit my neighbors' barn yard
and see what tabor some of them have spent
to keep iheir barn yards dry by having them
lo slope from the barn, so tho washings of ihe
stable manure, which lay exposed to Ihe rain
and sun, may pass oil into some public road
or ruuiiig stteam, I no longer wonder why
they must annually haul their straw to Putts
ville to obtain money lo pay their taxes. 1
have large nnd commodious sheds built on
two sides of my bam yard, my barn on the
3d side having an opening at the east end of
the yaid which is made concave. In the
shed fronting tho yard I have a large vat,
made water tight, which will hold about
twenty barrels; Ii) lo this my yard isdiained,
consequently 1 have a dry yard and receive
Ihe whole advantage of the juice and nnne
which collects in the vat. Tho vat is cover
ed with plank, and under these shed I have
all the manure put as it is takeu nut of the
stable, so that none of its fertilizing qualities
are lust. In those sheds, it temains until my
ground is in readiness, w hen it is hauled out
and ploughed under as soon as possible. Li
quid from the vat is hauled oul in casks, and
applied to my fruit trees, corn and potatoe
hills, mellon vines, and to every thing I wish
to grow luxuiianlly. The mows of the sheds
are used to stow away straw and fodder, and
the sheds themselves to shelter my cattle.

EDUCATION.
For the Sunbury American.
COMMON SCHOOLS.
The common school, or more properly, the
free school, of our county, particularly in
several portions, of the same, are in the lit
eral sense, of the words, truly common
schools. And as this is a subject of ureal
importance, to all classes of citizens, from
the highest to the most humble and lowly in
grade, I think Ihe comman people, that in
Ihe Farmers and Mechanics, should have it
more at heart, and feel more interest in this
matter. What branches are taught in Ihe
greater patts of these schools I Why or
thography, reading, writing, arithmetic, and
sometimes, English grammer, and geogra.
phy and even those very imperfectly. Why
not have history, algebra, mensuration, bota
ny, and chemistry, also taugbt in our
schools Y These are also English branches -Then
why not taught. Why through Ihe
people's neglect, of which I shall treat more
largely iu my next.
