Too M*XY. —Phillip Anthony, of Franklin county Indiana, married five wives, three of them in Frank lin county. All of thein still live, and to all of them ) he is legally bound. For all this he has been arres- , ted and placed in jail to take his trial for bigamy. SILVER AND LEAD. —Private letters from Rockport Indiana, speak of a great discovery recently made near there. Colonel Woods lately bought a farm at Grandview, five miles from Rockport, and, on pros pecting for oil. struck a vein of lead and silver, eighteen inches thick, which yields two ounces of pure silver, and eight ounces of pure lead to every pound of ore. What the extent of the vein is, is unknown, of course. That region abounds in coal, ! and no doubt in oil; and 1 believe it is not generally j known that the finest coal west of Pennsylvania, is j to be had at the Rockport mines. They have only ! been open for a short time, and are scarcely known outside their own county. A BOY'S LAWSUIT. —Under a great tree, close to the village, two boys found a walnut. "It belongs to me." said Ignatius, "for 1 was the first to see it." "No. it belongs to ine." cried Bernard, '"for 'I was the first to pick it up." and so they began to quar rel! in earnest. "1 will settle the dispute," said an older boy, who had just then come up. He placed himself between the two boys, broke the nut in two and said : "'The one piece of shell belongs to him who first saw the nut: the other piece of shell be longs to him who first picked it up ; but the kernel 1 keep for judging the case. And this," he said, as he sat down and laughed, "is the common end of most lawsuits." ATOAO UNDRESSING. —Audabon relates that he once saw a toad undress himself. He commenced by pressing his elbows hard against his sides and rubbing downward. After a few smart rubshis sides began to burst open along his back. He kept on rubbing until be had worked all his skin into folds on his sides and hips; then grasping one hind leg with both hands, he hauled off one leg of his pants the same as anybody would, then stripped oft' the other hind leg in the ~ame way. He then took his cast off cuticle forward between his forelegs into his. mouth and swallowed it ; then by raising and low ering his head, swallowing as his head came down, he stripped off the skin underneath until it came to his fore legs, and then grasping one of those with the opposite hand, by considerable pulling stripped the other, and by a single motion of the head, and while swallowing he drew it from the neck and swal lowed the whole. How TO FOMENT MISCHIEF. —There seems to be a principle in human nature, a kind of roguish curi osity that impels one to act upon suggestions given in such a manner as to imply that, though wrong, it is expected they may be, or will be, followed out. The farmer who had a husking-frolic, and told his neigbors's boys present that they must be peaceable and orderly on the way home, and must not put neighbor Smith's cart on his corn-barn, was not probably surprised, or ought not to have been, to find that the cart was actually astride of the corn-barn when the sun rose next morning. Nei ther is this principle confined wholly to children. There is a story of a Catholic priest aud a hostler which is not inappropriate. When a hostler had finished making confessions of his sins, the priest inquired of him if he had ever greased the teeth of his customers horses to prevent them from eating j their oats. The hostler declared that he had never heard of such a thing. The next time he went to the confessional, the first offence which he had to acknowledge was that he had been greas ing the teeth of his customers' horses. — Illinois Teacher. WHERE THE COLD COMES FROM. —Our observations of the the cold terms for several years, show that the icy wave comes down over the central portion of this continent, striking our Western States and passes over the ocean in a south easterly direction. The cold wave does not affect the Pacific shore; it comes down from the Artie regions upon the Rocky Moun tains, and then turns eastward, so that the first news we have of it, days before it reaches here, is from Minnesota, Nebraska, and Utah. It follows the valleys and the course of the waters, and spends itself over the Gulf Stream, where it warms again and rising as it expands, is wafted back in the up per atmosphere. This cold air current is just the opposition, to the warm water current which we call the Gulf Stream. That comes from the torrid zone westerly, and is turned northward by the configura tion of the lands, as the cold air wave is eastward when it strikes the mountains, and thence runs a iong our coast affecting the climate of the lands near it, till it loses itself in the Northern ocean and ice. So God has provided in nature for heat and cold mutualy to affect each other. AN OIL STORY. —The other day S , who doeß a comfortable little business down-town, but always has ways of spending money, provided he had a lit tle more of it, thought he would try his luck in the oil regions, and happened to be on the spot when the famous Holmden well was struck, so much talk ed of lately. He immediately ascertained who own ed an adjoining tract of land supposed to be equally rich, and repaired to the house where the man lived not far off. Arriving abont three o'clock in the morning, he professed to he very much fatigued— he "didn't like to sleep on grapevines," and wanted a more comtortable place. In course of time, con versation turned to that tract of land. The owner expatiated upon its probable value, and suggested that his friend, just arrived, would do well to try his luck as a purchaser. The latter said he "might not object to a trade, if he had money and more time to devote to such ventures," Ac. but at length inqui red about the price. Twelve thousand dollars was named. VV-e-1-1, supposing your wife draws up a bill of sale, and meanwhile I'll see." The docu ment was prepared, the cost paid and the signatures affixed. Next day S , was offered £40,(100 for one quarter of his purchase'. Happening to meet in Oil-Dorado soon after, the "late owner dryly remark ed, "Don't like sleeping on grape-vine. Ac." These are facts.— Neir York Journal of Commerce. A FRENCH SCENE. —A Frenchman named Soul ages, a native of Colmar, has for some time past been exhibiting with great success, at Wurtzburg, as a lion tamer. One day he entered a den containing alien and a lioness, aud made them go through va rious perfoimances. The spectators loudly applau ded. Elated by these plaudits, Soutages determined to do something more extraordinary, and for that purpose he collected in one den. a lion, a iioness, a white bear, two black bears, four hyenas, two wolves and A tiger. He then entered himself, whip in hand but the door was scarcely closed when the tiger made a spring atthe white bear. This was the sig nal for a terrific struggle between all the beasts, who appeared at once to recover their natural ferocity. Soulages hoping to intimidate the animals, fired two pistol shots at the tiger and white bear. This act scaled his fate for the tiger, leaving the bear, sprang on his keeper, threw him down, and began to tear him with his teeth and claws. The other beasts, rendered furious by the smell of blood, all fell on the unhappy man, and in a few minutes he was torn to pieces, and almost entirely devoured, in the pres ence of the hogror struck spectators, who were pow erless to render assistance. — Foreign Paper. i. *r>yy •, '•"% .ri r * . j I IY informs their friends, and the pub lic in general, that they are receiving and keep <-<>n •tantlv on hand n Targe and well selected stock f For eign and Domestic JDTtT GOODS QUOH AS TO 4 Cloths, .Cassiuiers.

By reference t„ thr last, of Pennsylvania, it will be observed that the Claii.,n riv er empties into the Allegheny at a point due soqtn trow Oil Creek, and as oil is found at Free port, on tin. l, Dr further south, we have every reason to believe that these inlands are in the very centre of the great oil Wit. of Pent: sylvania.

F O U TZ'S CELEBRATED HORSE AND CATTLE POWDERS. rpiIESK Powders hate proved, after a trial of -everaf A years, to lie superior to any preparation of the kind in use. TW chief superiority of these powders arises I fioni the fact that they are composed of medicine.- that have Laxative, Tonic and Purifying properties. The laxative ejects crudities from the stomach and intestine-, the tonic gives strength to the system of the Horse, and the purifying medicines contained in them cleanse the blood, and lay the foundation for a vigorous and healths circulation. The u-e of them improves the wind, strength*, ens the appetite and j?ives the horse a fine, smooth and glos sy skin—thus improving the appearance, vigor an . spir it of this nobie animal. These powder* are not intended, as most p.,wdiis art to bloat the animal, so as to give him the appearance of being fat when not really so—but to remove the disease and promote his general health. These powders will strengthen the stomach and intf-- tincs. cleanse them from offensive matter, and bring tlicm to a healthy state. They are a sure prevention oi Bong Fever, and a certain remedy for all disease* incident t the Horse, as tiJenifers, Yellow Water, Distempers, foun der. Heaves, Slavering, Coughs. Fevers Loss oi Appetite and \ ital Energy, Ac.—These powders, if used iv- ur thn e times a week, through the winter and spring, ynut few do.-es of fetflOV.'- toe Worst cough, on any horse. Were owuer* of horses to feed a fee oi these powders every year, they might save the li e, wl many valuable horses. MILCH COWS. The properties this powder possesses in incrrastn.- the quantity of milk In cows, gives it an importance an-i value which should place it in the hands of every person keeping a cow. In fatteuing cattle, it gives tbi to an ap petite. loosens their hide, and makes them thrive muck faster, HOGfS. In all diseases of swine, as coughs, ulcers in th<- lungs and liver, Ac., by putting from half a paper to a paper of these powders in a barrel of swill, the above diseases caa be cured or entirely prevented.
