The Dead Sea and lho Cities of thc Plain In the Old Testament scriptures, thero is un account of 'the utter overthrow and des truction of certain cities, the inhabitants of Which aroused 'the Divine. vengeance. It has always been a.favorite theory with ma ny 'Moderns, thtit the Mad Sea covered the site of the citj s of : Sodom and Gomorrah, and, unless We i err in our. recollections, Lieut. Lynch gave that opinion an empha tic endorsation. Indeed, our gallant officer had no doutirthat he found Mrs. Lot, who, We 'aid fold, was transformerrinto a pillar of Silt; for looking back as she ran. . A book has just been published in Eng land, and we presume will soon appear in this country which will dive the quietus to the popular ideas on this subject. It seems that Monsieur de Sculley; a member of the French institute, Could not coincide in opin ion. with ,yie popular notions of the over 'throw of the cities of the plain ; regarding heir) as unauthorized by the scriptural his tory of that event. His desire to vindicate the correctness of his views induced him to 'visit the Holy Land. Accordingly, he left for the scene of his labors in ISSO, being ijecompanied by his son, by the Abbe' de St. 1 IVlichen, arid several intelligent friin.ds. In that and the following year, lie pursued his archecalogical explorations' with the happi est, results. He was abundantly supplied with means, 'and having secured a strong body guard of infantry and cavalry, he was enaLled to pro 'ceed with his mission without danger, from the momadic tribes of Arabs. He directed his attention, first, to a careful examination of the Dead Sea. Beneath the stinking waters of this remarkable sea, popular tra dition had located Sodom and Gomorrah.; tut he was soon convicted, that, like the ap. Ales which were once believed to grow upon its borders, the popular idea hnd no founda tion in fad. • But he found the cities of the plain, and rode among their ruins. His eyes looked upon their widely extended remains, bear ing even now, the marks of that terrible visitation—"fire from Heaven"—which con sumed and destroyed them. Upon the shores and in the vallies where they origin ally stood, this French savant discovered their blackened ruins. It is surprising that they have not been sooner discovered. The Holy. Land has been a• point of interest with all travelers and explorers in all times. From the cru sades until the present hour, men have flock ed thither and trodden the land more full of sublime memories than any other portion of this babbling earth. • But we easily account for the failure to discover these relics of the olden times.— Men have always visited the Dead Sea, and as they looked upon its sluggish, salt wa ters, have regarded them as shutting up in darkness the cities accursed of Heaven.— Hence do traveler has sought after the cities of the plain, and it has been reserved for the French savant of the present day to bring to light this strong confirmation of the Old Testament records. We trust that our A:nerican booksellers will soon give to the American public, the results of Monsieur de Sauley's researches.— Democratic Union. Horrible Case of Parental Cruelly. The following horrible case of parental cruelty is detailed in the St. Louis 'Weill gencer of the sth inst. It says shock ing case of this character came under the observation of Mr. Brown, County Coroner, day before yesterday. The parties are a Oerinan and his wife, and a little girl be itween • two and three years of age, who is his child by a former wife. They live near ithe,Carondelet road, a few miles: below the Mr. Brown had heard on several oc casions fromithe neighbors of the German, -of the ananner in which he and his wife .were accustomed ,to indulge towards her ; :and on Thursday liewent to their house to ascertain the facts for himself. Be found ithexhild very week and ill, lying on a bed -upon the floor. Her whole body was al most black with bruises and marks of pin ches she had received, and seemed to be both ill-fed and ill-clothed. •She betrayed extreme fear of sight of her father and step- Another, and screamed with terror when cite ‘er of them approached. Mr. B. was inform ed that the .father had further practised a means of torture which none but the most unnatural malice could have devised, and 'that when drunk he had been known to take the child's tongue with his fingers, pull it with force, and cut it repeatedly with a pair of scissors. His neighbors had resolved to take the child from him, ;Ind did so perhaps on yesterday. They had . also determined to-procure the arrest and prosecution of the unnatural parents. THE CLAWSON HE11181111..--We mention ed some time since a rumor that the wife of the liev. Sue' Clawson. of Virginia, had fallen heir to an immense ,fortune in Eng land.i.. The IVeston (Va.) Herald says the facts of tho.case are as follows: "There ,was originally the sum of thirty- Six millions of dollars, the estate of the Earl of Lancester, in England, and upon the death of the Earl and his brother, a dispute arose between the House of York and the House of Lancaster, (institated by the former, be cause of sit intermari inee between the two houses,) the House of York suing for the heirship. Thei suit was protracted, from the lower to the higher courts, from fifty to n hundred years, and:wee finally decided at the Exchequer, (th'erQrieeti'sEbnch,) in fa vour of the House of Lancaster. After this' decision; - advertisements were- „ Scattered abroad over the world for the heirs of the Lancaster estateland • the mother of Mrs. Clawson, wife ,of Rev. Samuel Clawson, is one of the .heirs.,.,4ttorneys are employed by the heirs to qocuril iheivinterests,and it is supposed that the whole aflair will be set tled up during this ,minter, when thei heirs will receive theirportions. The above sum, of thirty-siig millions , has been at interest for more than .sixty-six years, which .interest will pay theosts of-law, and leave the gi nal, clea r A Yankee Colonist. In one of the last letters from Bayard Taylor, dated at Macao, China, he describes a visit of Commodore Perry to the Bonin Isles, lying about 600 miles in a southerly direction from the Bay of Yedo, discovered by the Japanees 2i centuries ago. He says "The oldest inhabitant, who probably exer cises a sort of authority in cases of dispute, is a natiyo,of.Massachusets, named Savory. who has been on the island since 1931, and is considered the richest of the settlers.— His money has been principally. made by sweet potatoes to whaling ships. at the rate of two dollars a barrel ; in addition to which he has a still, and manufactures rum from' sugar-cane. At the time of our visit he had two hogshead of it, which was said to be of excelleht quality. The popu lation is continually floating, with the excep tion of four or five persons who were among the original settlers of the island. Sailors from whaling vessels -frequently desert and remain a year or two, after which they em bark again. The whalers are mostly American, and, according to the settlers, generally conduct themselves peaceably.' It was on this island that Commodore Perry purchased from Mr. Savory a tract of land, at Port Lloyd, intended as a coal sta tion for our Pacific Steamers. This tract, Taylor says, 'has a front of 1,000 yards on the water, and extends across the island to a small bight on the northern side, which was , named Pleasant Bay. *The location is ad- 1 [ninthly adapted to a coaling Elation for strainers, since a pier fifty feet long would strike wttter deep enough to float the largest vessel. If the United States Government will establish such a line, as it is in duty bound to zio, the intermediate stations are thus already secured, whatever may be the issue of the expedition to Japan. The soil of Peel Naiad is of the richest vegetable mould, and -might be made to produce abun dant supplies, while its mountain streams furnish a never-failing source of excellent water.' 111E.D.
