Rel'gions Denominations, According to an estimate made by one of the Professors ofHamillon College, the num ber of members of the different religious denominations in this country Bland pretty much as follows: Catholics, 1,131,300 Unitarians, 34,00 Methodists, 1,216,0G9 Baptist, 1,215,620 -Presbyterians, 495,083 Friends, 50,000 Uuiversalists, 325,000 Episcopali's 67,540 Hard l imes in New York. By an estimate in the Herald, it is shown that not less than twenty thousand people, on an average, nightly visit the theatres nnd other places of public amusement in that city. The cost of admission to these places of amusement is not less than between ten and twelve thousand dollars nightly, or about seventy thousand dollars a week. Chlo Greets Fennsylvuiiln.

Digging for Treasure. —A cro*d of men and boys were gathered about the ramparts of the old French Fort, on tho west side yesterday afternoon, nnd again this morn ing. It seems the farce of digging (of trea. tare is again in operation there, with the aid of what the boys call a "witch." Thi9 has produced the interest, and called togeth er an amused crowd. A young girl, appa rently 14 years of age, said to have seen j this treasure in a mesmeric sleep in Albany. I is on the ground. Slto sits upon the bank of! a deep excavation, and while working the msn are not permitted to speak, she issuing • her directions in writing. Preparatory to j the commencement of the work, tho girl •{in Bloomer costume) with solemn gravity "walks round the edge of the excavation 'three times, and at a given signal the men 'fall to digging. The whole scene is one •bordering largely on the ridiculous, but strongly marked by gullibility. A police of ficer as present yesterday to preserve order To-day the number of spectators is largely •increased, in consequence of the presence of the sight-°eeing young miss, who directs, with tl.e aid of her mesmeric eye, exactly •where the treasure -is bu-ied.— Osicego Jour- i nut MORE THREATEN t-.n SECESSION.— The citi zens of Dade countv, Georgia, acting upon the oxample of their disunion Coventor, at j 'a late meeting resolved that, if Georgia re- j •cedes from the Union, they will secede from "Georgia. The merit of lite resolve is mostly •contained in the fact that Dado county is naturally separated from the rest of Georgia J by a range of mountains, and Iter citizens [ •could annex themselves to Tennessee, upon 1 which State they border, without any diffi- j culty whatever. ■ARRIKD.
