1 vrrit FACT. —f rom the report G! tne
garJncr to whose care tiie trees ol the Chrystal
i'alace were ent'uted, it seems that the old
elms under the glass shade, so far from being
injured by their confinement, have increased in
their branches from six to seven feet, while the
elms in the paik have mud", on the average,
only one foot ot shoots.
AHOAX —A telegraphic report was announced
in the Philadelphia papers of Saturday last, that
a duel was to take place, on that morning, be
tween two of our citizens, 11. It. Franks. Esq .arid
Col. John Rankin, at Woodward Hock, on the
Conestoga. Of course no such thing was thought
of by the parties, and the author of the story
has no doubt repented of it since. To give some
degree of plausibility to the story, a despatch
was sent the next day, stating that the difficulty
had been amicably adjusted.— Lancaster Republi

A man named Steingraver. convicted r( mur
der. was hung at Ashland, Ohio, on the 30th uit.,
in presence of about five thousand persons, the
populace having the day previous demolished the
jail yard fence in order "to trilness the execution !
The spectacle, it is said, was very revolting, the
prisoner being a heavy man, and the rope
stretched so much that he fell upon his knees.
His neck was unbroken, and he was then drawn
up and literally strangled, hanging about thirty
minutes before life w as pronounced extinct.
The Baltimore Annual Conference of Metho
dist Ministers convened at Cumberland, Md.,
on Wednesday, March 3d, in the church under
the pastoral charge of Revs. John M. Jones and
John S. Deal. Bishop Janes is expected to
preside, assisted by Bishop Waugh. The terri
tory of the Baltimore Conference embraces the
Western Shores of Maryland, District of Co- :
iiiVnbia, and portions of Virginia and Pennsyl
vania, and exceeds any conference in the con- !
nexion in the numerical strength of the mem- i
liership, as they number mote than severity .
thousand, who are under the pastoral care of
nearly three hundred ministers. The approach- I
ing session will be one of great interest, as the
selection of twelve delegates will take place, to
represent the conference at the session of the
next General Conference, to be held in Boston
in May next.
The Richmond Times publishes the fallowing
note from a correspondent at Buchanan, Bote
tourt, county, Va: V
A few days ago, whilst some men were en
gaged in blasting out limestone a short distance
below this place, for the purpose of making a :
lime-kiln, they calne across what seemed tube
a cave, with an enirence some six or eight feet
in height and upwards of one hundred feet long,
with two apaitments. In the first they found
•- une earthen ware and a large stone cross : on
the cross there was some carving, but it was so j
much defaced by the hand of time that it was
scarcely discernable. After they found these
things, they came to Buchanan and made known
their discovery. Some of the citizen-, with
lanterns, proceeded immediately to the cave to
make further search.
They found nothing in the first room but
what 1 have already mentioned, but on entering
the second apartment were surprised to find a
skeleton seated on a huge iron chest, with it
back resting against the wall. On opening this
chest they found it to contain gold coin, perfectly
smooth on one side and a cross with some char- 1
acters on the other. The gold in the chest,by
weight, is worth seven hundred and eighty-three
dollars.
How these things came in this cave we are f
not able to amagine, for the coin i= one which ;
we have never seen before.

DKSTRITTI VE KIKE. —The N'ai! Factory at
tached to the Portage iron Works, in Duncans- j
vi le, was destroyed by tire on Friday morning
last. The loss will probably not fall far short i
i f ss-.OOU—SBJM)G of which is covered by in
surance in the Franklin Company of Phi'a
delphia. The origination of tiie tire was the j
result of carelessness, rather than accident,
the way we look at it. Some of the workmen, I
it appears, erected a scaffold under a pipe that
was frozen up, for ttie purpose ot thawing, j
when they buiit a fire immediately under it,
ami left the building. Shortly after the fire
communicated to the too! the a'arru was
ni.-^d —but before any successful effort could
ho made to arrest the progress of the flames,
the Factory* was a ptie of ruins. There were ,
some twenty-five nail cutting machines in the j
establishment, but it is presumed that many of
them can be repaired. The works, at present
property of Roy or, McN'eal lliggins,
were about t assmg into the hands of a new
. oiiipany.— Hot inlay shit ru; Standard.
DISTRE SISO ACCIDENT.—A singular and
painful accident occurred a few weeks ago, at
Uuiina's Mibs, on Mosquito Creek, about six
miles ftom this place, the particulars of which,
a- near as we can glean, are as follows: Two
n.en were employed in the mill at which the
accident occurred, to superintend the sawing
iuriu<r the night; Mr. John llunky raking
his turn at work, from I'l o'clock until dayiight.
Having been awakened at midnight, as usual,
tie went underneath the mill lor the purpose of
arranging some of the gearing preparatory to
pursuing his night's task, when, unfortunately
slipping, his iigbt WBS dashed from his hand,
■ ud in his endeavours to grasp at something to
support himself and prevent a fall, his finger.-
were caught in trie meshes of a cog-wheel
winch was slowly revolving above him. The
wheel gradually drew in hi: arm—crumbing
ins strong, muscular hand iikc-a wafer,entirely
severing the bone above tiie wrist, and mang
ling him in the most horrible manner—until
he was drawn up so that he had bareiy a foot
ooiii upon the points of his toes. In this po
sPion. his own weight and Die entering wedge
firmed bv his arm Flopped the revolution of
the machinery. The poor feliow, who mutt
have been suffering the most excruciating
agijov, screamed frantically lor help, hut the
noise of ihe rushing water drowned Ins voice,
and his fellow laborer, who had immediatt iy
dropped asleep, in the mill, above him, ac
customed to noise and clatter, did not awaken
ior hear him. There was none other likely
!■ hear him. What an awful position for a
strong, athletic man, full of life and vigor !
lie screamed unheeded, until his voice tailed
I im. For five hours he remained in that po
sit ion—ins right arm wedged between Die im
pinging wheels, in a winter night, the warm
n <. d trickling over iiim from his wounds!
His wife awakening Iroiu a frightful dream,
and seeing no light m the mill, surmised
that something had happened, ran from
the house to the mill, heard him moan and
discovered him, ami arousing the neighbors
at five o'clock, and after considerable dif
ficulty, he was released frmn his frightful
captivity, ilis arm was amputated on Wed
!>' ■'lay by Dr. Thomas Lyon, from whom wo
gather these particulars, and who now has the
mangled iirnb at Ins office. Mr. Henry is in a
Inr way Ibr recovery from the terrible acci
dent and ex|Ofijrc In winch ire was subjected.
