tague:- - Wequote from the Diary the follawing
description :
WEnstieiriAPrit2l3, 1848 This Morning
we are:e.xiiniiiing thetills of Usdom, and seeking
with a good deal of curiosity the ever famous -, 7 it.
ler 'of Salt,' which marks the judgmentof God upon ,
Lot a wife. On ptillina• round the shores of the
sea we saw an immense column, roundedan tur
ret shaped, facing towards the southeast. This,
we are told by „our Arabs. was the Pillar of Salt,
in .which-Lot's wife war encased at the mierthow
of Sodotti. With some difficulty' we landed here,
and our esteemed, commandee and. Dr. 'Anderson
obtained specimens from . it, and Mr. Dale took a
sketch of it Our boat's crew landed also,
and
their curiosity was gratified by their 'gathering
specimens;spe from its summit, and others from
its base:; It was Measured, and found to be sixty
feet in height; and forty feet in circumference.—
We cannot suppose that Lot's wife was a person
so
We"
that her'dimensions equalled those of this'
column. 2 Many,tbinir the statue'a Lot's wife Was
equal - to the pillar of salt_ which the Bible speaks
ot, Let that pillar be where it may,and whatever
be. its:size; they, will not probably credit that this
is the_ pillar. - Their preconceived .notions having
much to do Wittithe matter, they would have every
body think that she was at once transformed into
a column of very fine grained beautifully white
salt, about five feet or a few inches more in height,
and
_in circumference that of a common-sized per
tion of the nineteenth`centuiy. Be that as it may,
no two minds have, perhaps, formed exactly-the
, ,same opinion on this matter who have not visited
this ;pot. But here we are, around this immense
colulfm, and we find that it is really of solid rock
salt—one mass of crystalization. It is in the vi.
cinity which is pointed out in the Bible, in rela
tion to the matter in question, and it-appears to
be the only one Of its kind here. And the Arabs
of the district to whom this pillar is'pointed out,
declare it to be that of Lot's wife—the identical
pillar of salt to which the Bible has reference—
the tradition having been handed down from each
succeeding generation to their children, as the
Americana will hand down to succeeding genera
tions the tradition of Bunker's Hill Monument in
Boston. My own opinion of the matter is., that
Lot's wife having lingered behind, in disobedience
to the express command of God—given in order
to insure her safety—that while so lingering she
became o'verwheltned in the descending fluid, and
formed the model or. foundatioir of as extraordi
nary column.. If it has been •produced by com
n3ou, by natural causes, it is but right to suppose
that others might be found of , a similar description.
One is• scarcely able to abandon theidea that it
stands here as a lasting memorial of God's pun
iahing a' 'most deliberate act of disobedience, com
mitted at
,a time when he was about to show'dis
tinguishing-regard for the very person.
We carefully.,broaght away our specimens, in
tending to show them to; our friends in America,
when - ,vvWshall have the good fortune to arrive
there and , tall with them on the subject. This
end of the aea very shallow, and its waters more
dense, more salt than where they liFerof greater
depth; here it is from one to five feet io depth.—
We now leave this “ Pillar of Salt," and return to

'Conning with One Ear.
'A singular circumstance that happened quite re
centlytin this vicinity, has been related to us, mad
as our informant places us under no Injunction of
secresy, we presume we are at liberty to tell it..A
Young man had been in the ha,bit, for some time, of
paying his addresses to the daughter of a wealthy.
though rather illiberal, old. firmer, contrary to the
desire of the latter but much to the - satisfactiOn of
the girl Although repeaiedlyrequested to " keep
his distance," he went:there last Sunday, and after
being in the room a short tine, the father entered
with a gun, which , he pointed'at the lover; and told
him he could now take his choice, either to lose his
life or one of his'earii The poor fellow was half
frightened to death: by Etch-an unexpected'saluta
tion,and of course replied that he would prefer part
ing- with One of his ears, when- the old gentleman
deliberately pulled a razor-out of his pocket; and
in an; instant one of his hearing omelet was sever•
ed frotn his bead. As inii,ht'have been expected,
this only increased the attachment of the faithful
girl to her lover, who declared 'that 'she would
htwe'him any bow, Whether he had'one earor two."
The intlticky swain will have the matter 'adjusted
in our Court of Justice, when the old fellow will
probably learn that cutting off ear; being unlaw
ful, is a poor way to put an.end to a courtship.—

The town, or rather we might say city; of Wells.
Ville, is rapidly growing into importance as a place
of business. The Railroad from Cleveland to the
Ohio river, at that place, is now under contract, and
is progressing with considerable energy. The Ra
venna Star, of a late date, contains a letter from
Messrs. D.& D.M'Donald,of Wellarille, in which
they give the following matemeht of the Produce,
&c., received at their establishment during the
months of January and February of the present
year
5638 bbls. Flour, 89 Rye Flour. (260 tons.
2380 do. Clover seed, 280 bags do. making

Tar, iron, Nails, Glass, Coffee, Re.. 144
The Messrs. IYPDonald say that as near as they
can guess, about one-third of the forwarding busi
ness of the place, is done at their establishment.—
Taking thisppinion to be correct, the Sentinel Cal
culates that during the months or January and Feb
ruary, there was an everage ‘ daily receipt at Wells
ville, of 28 tons Merchandise_ to be conveyed into
the interior, and 71 tons Produce (or river shipment
East and South. This is a heavy irusinces for our'
Wellsville friends, and is a merited reward for their
caterprize and energy. •

In connection •with this we may here state. that a

Western Pennsylvania, by letter, to a member of
our, - State Legislature, for the liquidation of the'
State debt. He says that our taxes ate already too

His head bare, his .hair cut, his hands tied' behind'
his back with= an enormous cord, his hody covered
only by a shirt, beneath a freezing sky, he slowly
traversed the quarters of the capital. The refuse
and Scum of_Peris; whom he had-long restrained,
appeared fci rise and,precipitate themselies like a
torrent round the wheels. The executioners them
selves, indignant at this ferocity, reproached the
people with their outrages. The populaee was only
the more implacable. The horde had insisted that
the guillotine, generally placed at the Place de la
Concorde, should be "ghat day transported to the
Champ de Mars, thatblooil might wash out the
blood upon the group where it had beep shed.—
Men who, called 'theOrelves relations, friends or
avengers'of the Champ de Mars, carried at flag in
derision by the side of a tumbril, at theend' of -a
Pole. They dipped-it from time to tittle in the
gutter, and violently ,WhippedEailyilaea; 'Others
spat in his face. His featurei, lacerated atid soiled
with dust and blood, no longer presented a human
form. Roars oflaughtet encouragedlhete horrors.
That march, interrupted at atations, lasted three
- hours, . • -

Arrived at the place tit execution, thege'refined
men of wrath madisHilly descend from the tom.

ground on which the blood of the people had flow
