LEWIS MARTIN. AIIIETTA, February, 1852. The Bath of Blood. From the proof sheets of " The History of,Hun g ry in De puy's gossuth and his Generals, void in the Press,!the Buffalo Commercial extracts a most thrilling tale of romantic history: "About the year t SlO, Elizabeth Ba thori,: sister to the king of Poland, and wife of a rich and pow erful Hungarian magnate, was the principal, actor iri the most singular and horrible tragedy mention ed in history. She occupied the castle of Csejta, Transylvania. Like most other ladies of that pe riod, she was surrounded by a troop of young girls, generally the daughters of poor but noble parents, who lived in honorable servitude; in return for which, their education was cared for, and, their dowry secured. Elizabeth was of a severe and cruel disposition, and her hand-maidens had no joy ous life. Slight faults are said to have been pun- Ailed by most merciless tortures. One day, as the lady of Csejta was admiring at the mirror those.charms which that faithful'moni- Mr told her were fast waning, she gave way:to her Ungovernable temper, excited; perhaps, by the mir ror's unwelcomed hint, and struck her unhanding maid with such force in the face as to drawqlood. As she washed irono her hands the stain she fancied he part which the blood had touched grew Whiter, sotter, and as it were, younger. Imbued with ihe Credulity of the age, she believed she had discover ed what so many philosophers had wasted years in seeking for. She supposed that in a virgin's blood 'she had found the elixir rite, the fountain of never failing youth and beauty. Remorseless by 'nature, 'and now urged on by irrepressible vanity, the 'thought no sooner flashed across her brain than her resolution was taken ; the life of her lucklesS hand maid was not to be compared with the firecious boon her death promised to secure. Elizabeth, however, was wary as well as cruel. At the foot of the rock on which Csejta stood, was 'a small cottage, inhabited by two old women; and between the cellar of this cottage and the castle was a sub terranean passage, known to only one or two per sons, and never used but in times of danger. With the:aid of these old crones and her steward, Eliza beth led the poor girl through the secret passage to the cottage, and after murdering her,: bathed in her blood. Not satisfied with the first essay, at different intervals, by the aid of these accornplices, and the secret passage, no less than three hundred miidens were sacrificed on the altar of vanity and superstition. Several years had been occupied in this pitiless slaughter, and suspicion of the truth was. excited, though the greatest amazement pervaded the coun try at the disappearance of so many persons. At last, however, Elizabeth called into play, against her two passions even stronger than vanity and cunning. Love and revenge became interested in the discovery'of the mystery. Among the victims of Csejta was a beautiful virgin, who was beloved by, and betrothed to a'young man in the neighbor hood. In despair at the loss of his mistress, he' followed her traces with such perseverence, that in spite of the hitherto successful caution of the murderers, he penetrated the bloody secrets of the castle, and burning for revenge, flew'to Presburgb, boldly accused Elizabeth Bathori of murder, be fore the Palatine, in -open court, and demanded judgment against her. So grave an accusation, brought against a person of such high rank, de manded the most serious attention, and the Palatine undertook to investigate the affair in persOn. Pro ceetlint, immediately to Csejta, before the murder ess or her accomplices had any idea of ithe accu sation, he discovered the still warm body of a young girl, whom they had been destroying as the Palatine approached, and had not time to dispose of before he apprehended them. The rank of Eliz abeth mitigated her punishment to imprisonment for life, but her assistants were burned at the stake. Legal documents still exist to attest the truth of this apparently improbable circumstance. Paget, a distinguished English traveller, who visted Csejta about twenty years ago, says: "With this' tale fresh in our minds, we ascended the long hill, gained the castle, and wandered over its deserted ruins,— The shades of evening were just spreading over the valley, the bare, gray walls stood up against the red sky,: the solemn stillness of evening reigned over the scene, and as two ravens, which had made their nests on the castle's highest towers, came to wards it, winging their heavy flight, and wheeling once round, each cawing a hoarse welcome to the other, alighted on their favorite turret, I Could have fancied them the spirits of the two cranes, while their infernal mistress was cursed by Some more wretched doom." Oregon as It Is. The Hon. JoSeph Lane, Delegate from Oregon, has issued a circular, in which he estimates the population of that territory at 20,00'0, and says the emigration is rapidly increasing, owning not only to the natural advantages of the country, but to the liberal provisions made for actual settlers by a late law of Congress. By that law liberal donations of lands are made to all who will settle upon them previous to the first day of December, 1853. To a single man one hundred and sixty acres, to a married man three hundred'and twenty —one half in his own right and the other half to his wife in her own right, upon conditiOn that they will live upon and cultivate it four years. The popu lation is of a substantial character, much better than is generally found in new countries. Those who-contemplate emigrating to Oregon should be ready to leave St. Josepg by the first of May.— Ox teams are much to be preferred.: Provisions for the trip, and sufficient' blankets for bedding, with such tools as are necessary ,to repair a wagon, should be taken. Dry gOods, groceries, furniture and farming utensils of all kinds, are ;abundant in Oregon. The Sciota Gazette says: The West is furnishing quite a 4t. ,, e emigra tion to Oregon, the number last season being in the neighborhood of ten thousand. At! the last ac counts most of the emigrants had arrived for the year, and the families had suffered bat little from sickness, though many had lost peoperty from In dian lhefts, 'and a few lives had been taken by the savages. "Oregon is destined to become a pnwerfut Slate in the Union, and the tide of emigration thither will be annually increased: Those who have been longest in the 'Territory write the most flattering letters of their success, and all concur in opresent ing it a healthy, productive and growing .country." FRESH Arn.—Every breath we draw, we take into the lungs from to 2 pints of, air; so that it requires about 2-.1 gallons j of pure! air a minute, or 60 hogsheads every ,24 hours, properly to sup ply the lungs. How important, then, to health, to have houses well ventilated, and not to sleep 'in o mall close rooms. An Important Decision. On Wednesday morning, in the Supreme Court, Judge LEWIN delivered the following opinion, which will be of interest to our agricultural trientls throughout the county. The subject has been a matter of 'dispute for a long time, and we rejoid,e that it has been settled according to the true in terests of both landlord and tenant. In the Supreme Court—Eastern William S. Lewis, Error to the Common vs., Pleas of Philadelphia. Augustus C. Jones. January 26th, 1352. Lzwis, J., delivered the opinion of the Court :; This case is characterized by a circumstance which whenever it occurs, (whether the result of intention, or inadvertence,) does injustice to the Court below, and tends to mislead the tribunal of review in its final decision. Every assignment of error, in the record before us, consists of mis-state- Meta's of facts, in relation to the charge of the' Court below. The record falsifies the allegations contained in the assignments of error; and we might, therefore, very properly affirm the jud . g,- ment, because the institutions complained of we're not in tact given. But it appears by the record that two questions o — mpqrtance to the agricultural interests of the country have been decided by the Court of Corn mon Pleas ; and we, therefore, proceed to inquire whether any error has been committed in their so lution. The Court instructed the jury that if they be lieved " that the defendant was the tenant of the plaintiff, and rented the land of him for farming purposes, and the manure was made upon the land in the ordinary course of farming, and was heaped up in the yard, and the defendant, about the time his lease was to expire, took the manure (now the subject of controversy,) and hauled it away, without the consent of the plaintiff, when there was no au thority given by the lease for him to do so, the ac tion can be sustained, and the plaintiff will be en titled to recover the value of the manure that was in this manner taken and carried away." It is implied, from the letting of a farm for ag ricultural purposes, that the tenants will cultivate the land according to the rules of good husbandry. This is as much a part of the contract as that he shall deliver up possession at the end of the term, or that he shall do no waste.' If the manure which is made by the feeding and bedding of his stock:on the premises, according to the usual course of hus bandry, is to be disposed of and carried to another farm, it only creates a necessity for the purchase of other fertilizing materials to keep the land in good order for - the production of crops. This must be done at the expense of money in the purchase and time and labor in hauling it from a distance. If every tenant were to adopt the practice•of sell ing the manure, much time and labor would be un necessarily expended in transporting it from place to place ; when, for all general purposes, the in terests of landlord and tenant would be much betfer promoted by the application of manure to the farm on which it was made. But a large propor tion of farms are owned by widows and orphan children, and are necessarily in the occupancy of ' tenants from year to year. These, which should be under the peduliar protection of the law, would be most exposed to impoverishment. I Tenants for short or uncertain periods, under the temptation of a rule of law which encourages had husbandry, would be led into practices, (each, in self-protection) which no one wonld adopt with re gard to his own land. Such a tenant would feel no interest whatever in preserving the fertility of the soil for the benefit of those who might succeed him. He would be prompted by the incentive of interest to strip the land of every thing which' the I law permitted him to carry off: The practice would become general, and the result would be that all the farms in the. Commonwealth, under cultivation by tenants for years, would be impoverished—Jhe tenants themselves receiving no adequate remuner ation for their labor—the landlords no rent for their farms. It is manifest that such a course of husbandry would be injurious to the public interest, and ruinous alike to landlord and tenants. The justice of this view of the question has been recognized by enlightened jurists in England and in other States of this Union. Mr. Justice Buller laid down the doCtrine that "every tenant, (where no particular agreement ex isted dispensing with this engagement) is bound to cultivate his farm in a husband-like manner; tind to consume the produce on it. This is one engage ment that arises out of the letting, and which the tenant cannot dispense with unless by special :agreement."—Brown vs. Crump, 1 Marsh., p.'567. This language of Mr. Justice Buller was cited by Chief Justice Gibbs, in the Case of Brown vs. Crump, determined in 1815, 1 Marshall, p. 037. In Connecticut, it has been held that manure spread upon the land, or scattered about the barn yard, cannot be taken away by the vendor, alter a sale of the land.—Parsons vs. Camp, 11 corn. p. 30. In Massachusetts, Chief Justice Shaw, in deliv ering the opinion of the Court, declared that; "ma nure made on a farm occupied by a tenant at will or for years, in the ordinary course of husbandry, consisting of the collections from the stable and barn-yard, or by composts formed by an admixture I o f these with the soil, or ether substances, is, by usage, practice, and the ggeral understanding, so attached to, and connected with, the realty, that, in the absence of any express stipulation on the subject, an out-going tenant has no right to re-' move the manure thus collected, or to sell it to be removed ; and that such a removal is a tort, for which the landlord may have redress. The tenant has a qualified possession of such manure, for a special purpose only; that is, to be used upon the farm. The moment he sold it, the act was an abandonment of the special purpose, and it is vest ed in the landlord, as owner of the freehold, and the action for trespass lies for removing it"— Daniel vs. Pond, 21 Rich , 378. In the State of Maine, Chief Justice Mellon de clared that the claim of the tenant to remove the manure made upon the premises, "even' if made by his own cattle and tvidit his own fodder, had no foundation in justice or reason, and such a claim the laws of the land cannot sanction."—Lassell vs. Reed, C Greene 222. In the State of New York,Chancellor Kent states that "the policy of encouraging and protecting ag ricultural improvements, will not permit the out going tenant to remove the manure which,has ac cumulated upon a farm during the course of his term."—Kent, Corn. 347. And Chief Justice Nelson, of the same State, (now on the Bench of the Supreme Court of the United States,) after revieving the authorities, and examining the question upon the principle, de clares that "where a farm is let, for agricultural pnrposes, (no custom or stipulation in the case) the manure does not belong io the tenant but to the I farm, and thy tenant has no more right to dispose of it to others, or remove it himself from the pre mises, than he has to dispose of or remove a fix ture." "If a farm be leased for agricultural Or poses, good husbandry (which, without any stipu lation, is implied by law.) would undoubtedly require it to be left" on the premises.—Middle brook vs. Corwan, 15 Wend. 171. There•are other authorities upon this question ; but enough has beetfi said to show that the charge of the Court below was correct, so far as it relates to the manure made from the produce of the farm. The doctrine that the manure goes with the land is of course confined to farms which are let for ag. riisultural purposes; and the case before us is one of that character; in which the manure was made From the produce of the farm. One of the witnesses, however, testified that the tenant "bought some hay," the witness did not know how much, "and some grain to feed his horses and cows. He fed the horses on the grain that was bought." Upon this evidence, the Court was requested to instruct the jury "that if he defendant spread upon the place or left behind him as much manure as the farm would reasonably produce itself, the excess belongs to him and not to the landlord." This instruction the -Court re fused to give ; because there was no evidence of the facts thus supposed to exist. In this the Court was perfectly correct. NOthing can more justly impair confidence In the administration of justice than the practice of encouraging, or even permit ting, a jury to find facts of which there in no evil dence. To ask a jury to separate' the manure whiCh was made on the premises, and to assign one portion to the tenant upon the ground that his CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 17, 1852. horses and cows had eaten "some hay" and "some grain, - not raised on the premises, without speci fying how much of either, or showing how much of the grain, hay and straw raised on the farm, had been supplied to them for litter and fciod, Would be asking a verdict with Out evidence. 1, Some is a term too uncertain in its signification to sustain a verdict for any definite amount. P. tnay mean a single ounce, or ten thousand tor.s—a single quart, or twenty thousand bushels. But where a farm is let for ,agricultural pur poses, the tenant cannot justify the removal of any portion of the manure made on the premises, by occasionally employing his teams in business not corrected with the cultivation of the soil, and supplying them in part with hay and grain pur chased from others, so long as the manure thus made is commingled with that made from the pro duce of the farm. dt is probable that in such a case the land would lose as much, during the ab sence of the teams on the road, as it would gain by the foreign admixture. Be that as it may, it is certain that the tenant, by his own act, has ren dered it impossible to ascertain the extent of his rights. And the doctrine of contusion of goods properly applies to his claim. "If A will wilfully intermix his corn or hay with that of B, so that it becomes impossible to distinguish what belongs to A from what belongs to B, the whole belongs to B." —Popham's Rep. 38, p. 2. 2 Kent's Corn. 354. It is ordered that the judgment of the Court be low be affirmed. Judgment affirmed. The Courts in California. Thomas C. Hambly, Esq., formerly of York, Pa., but now a resident of California, in a letter to the editor of the York Republican, speaking of a pro fessional visit to the town of Jackson, in Calavaras county, says: " Two courts were in session, the County and the District Courts. My case was in the County Court, before Judge Smith, the very table on which Collyer, the county clerk died, who was shot by this same Judge Smith, a lew weeks ago, perhaps very excusably too. The counsel opposed to me, Gen. Anderson, a fine looking old gentleman, was armed with a huge bowie knife, that hung like a broad sword by his side, and I was, perhaps, the only unarmed man in the body. The Judge had his Colt revolvers buckled on—the spectators had theirs—the grand jury, &c., and as 1 said, the sher iff and his assistants theirs. In fact, Colt's revol ers and raw brandy are a part of every day's dress. The County Court was held in the clerk's office, as the District Court occupied the court house. The latter was built of posts set in the ground—no windows—the collar a few inches higher than my head, one end of the house entirely open, and no floor but the earth (which was trampled into deep dust) except four or five boards for the Judge to sit on. The building was about 25 feet long and about 15 wide. Yet in this simple building the most perfect order reigned. Everything transpired with dignity and the law looked as much, if not more majestic than in brick and mortar with granite pillars )n front." NEW MARBLE WORKS, (SIGN OF TWO LARGE MARBLE LIONS.

Many troubled with ringing in the ears and head when asleep,great nervousness. being alarmed at sudden sounds, and bashfulness, with frequent blushin g. attended, sometimes, with de rangement of mind, were cured immediately. TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE. Dr. J. addresses all those who have injured themselves by private and improper indulgeneies, that secret and solitary' habits, which rum both body and mind, unfitting them for either business or society. These are some of the sad and melancholy ef , fects produced by early habits of youth, viz: Weakness of the back and limbs, Pants in the head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Power, Pal pitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous It rim bilh y, Derangement of the Digestive Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, &c. Mentally.—The fearful effects on the mind are much to be dreaded 'Loss of Memory, Contusion of ideas, Depr-scion of Spirits, Evil of Forebo ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of Solitude, Timidity, &e',, are some of the evils pro dueed• N..RVOUS DEBILITY.

Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and Symptoms', oh Consumption, also those serious Mental effedts. such as loss of Memory, Depres• sion of Spirna,or peculiar fits of MelanettolV. when the truth is they have been caused by Indulging Pernicious but' alluring practices, destructive t o both Body and ' , Mind.

Such persons, before contemplating • MARRIAGE, Olinda reflect that a sound mind and body are the most necessary requisites to promote connubial happiness. Indeed, without this, the journey thro' life becomes a weary pilgrimage; the prospect hourly darkens to the view • the mind becomes shadowed with despair, and fflled with the inclan choly reflection that the happiness of another be.l conies blighted with our own.

The Jour nals are Cast-Steel—its weight is 600 lbs. On trial it has proved itself capable of performing from 50 • to 100 per cent. more work than other Powers with the same labor of the team. It is warranted to hold 8 horses. I have also completed a combined THRESHER I AND CLEANER, which is capable of. Threshing and Cleaning from 300 to 500 bushels of wheat per I day, with from 6 to 8 Horses, and an equal number of hands. 4 horses can thresh with it from 100 to ' 200 bushels per day of wheat, and 900 to 500 of oats. It is very convenient for those who follow Threshing, and for two or more farmers to own in company; it is more convenient to move than any machine in use. The Machine stands on the wag on while threshing—the Power is loaded on the same wagon in moving—two horses are sufficient ; to move it ; it will, save enough labor in threshing 2000 bushels to pay its extra cost. It will thresh in the field or by a stack as conveniently as in a barn. The cylinder and concave can readily be adjusted so as to thresh with equal facility both tough and dry grain.
