theme readers yet survive who remem
ber the memorable and .disastrous defeat
orlEtr. Oxint's army in 1791. In that en
gagement twenty-two hundred American
soldiers participated, and were routed and
thrown into the wildest confusion by a
surprise attack of the Indians of Western
Ohio. BT. GLAIR had encamped upon a
knoll or swill bill thirty miles north of
fort Jefferson, & eighty one miles in ad
vance of Pik Washiligton. About sunrise
on the morning of the 4th of Novembor,
the Indians commenced their shack, and in
a short time the bodies of seven hundred
men were scattered over the hill, and the
ground soaked with blood ; the whole ar-
I my fled : with great precipitation; casting
t away their anus ; nor did they cease their
flight until they reached Fort Jefferson,
leo overwhelming was the defeat. In Jan
i nary. .1792. Um Harrison, it is suppose,
buried the dead. But no trace of their ,
Iburia4lape hail been found until within
I a few mouths ago, when the remains were
found by the merest aceldetit. They
!were taken up and preseried with almost
ireligious reverence until the 10th of Sep
:, tenger last, when the people were sem
mimed to attend the funeral rites of those
bones upon the very ground which sixty
years before hail drank tlieir blood.
A writer in the National InleUigencerl
says. wain that solemn occasion near 1
ten thousand people assembled to listen to
the eloquent BELLAMY Sroees,
nett, a ho war the chosen orator of the day.
Never, before had been witnessed a scen e !
so deeply affecting. As the orator aboke
of the sufferings', it may, be, of their own
parents upon ;hat ground sixty years before,l
tears rail down the furrowed cheeks of!
the aged in plentiful drops. The fount of:
feeling was opened, and none restrainer)

THE ..RAZOR STROP MAN."
Smith. the Rqzor Strop Man," occa
sionally hreiki olierotn - the subject olihe
very superior quality of his vtrops, and
gives his audience a short lecture on tem
pertnce in his own peculiar and droll way.
Here is an extract
sSztru'sCaT.---When I drank grog, I
owned a cat, a poor, lean, lantern-jawed
thing. that was always getting intuit scrape.
As I had nothing for her to eat. she was
cmnpelled to mike to the_highway. and the
neighbors were continually crying out,
• cos that Smith's cat, she's stole my meat,
and cuss that Smith's cat, she's drunk up
all my milk.' Pour thing, she had to steal
or die, for she could find no pickings at
Mime, for even the few mice that were left
were so poor and scraggy that it took sev
eral of thedi to make a stOlow, and -a de
cent cat would starve to death in three
weeks on an allowanee of eighteen a day.
But when I reformed things took a differ
ent turn. The kitchen being well provi
ded, the crumbs were plenty, and the old
cat grew fat and honest together. Even
the mice grew fat and oily. and the old
tabby would make ajlearty supper on two
of them, and then lie down and snooze,
with the pleasing consolation of knowing
that when she awoke, there would be a
few more left of the same sort.
" And again—When I was a beer guz
zler, mother cried, father cried, wife eriod,
John erica!, Bill cried, Moll cried. Bet
cried, and the eat cried. Jim when I sign
ed the pledge, father sung, mother smug.
wife„ , sung, John sung, Bill stung, Moll
sung, Bet sung, the cat sung, the tea-kettle
sung, and I bought a new frying-pan and
put a nice piece of beefsteak in it. and pla
ced it on the fire, and Mai sung, and that's
the hind of singing for the working man.
And a third—The difference between
Smith sober, and Smith drunk, is this:
Smith drunk. was rummy, ragged, and
riotous—Smith sober, is jovial, joyful and
jolly. Smith drunk. was stuttering, stu
pid, and staggering—Senith sober, is cool,
clear-headed and cautious. Smith drunk,
was sick, sore and sorry—Smith sober, is
hearty, healthy and happy. Smith drunk
was ill-read, all-bred, and ill-led--Smith
Sober, is well saved, well-behaved and
well-8 ha ved."
SHIP DI:STROYED BY A WHALK.—Capt.
Debtors. of the whale ship Ann Alexander,
arrived at New York in the Cherokee,
and reports that on the 20th of August
last, when in lat. 5 50 S., long. 102 W.,
while in pursuit of whales, two of his
boats that were out in pursuit were attack
ed by a large sperm whale, and complete
ly demolished. The captain promptly or
dered out a third boat, and proceeded to
the assistance of the men, who were
thrown into the sea by the destruction of
their boats. He imereeded in rescuing all
of them, and readied hill ship in safety.
But the whale becoming inure frantic with
rage, immediately directed his course fur
the ship, and struck her abreast of her
foremost, injuring her so badly that she
instantly filled. All hands took to the
boats on the 22d, and were subsequently
picked up by the ship Nantucket, Captain
Gibbs, of Nantucket, ant: arrived at Payta,
Sept. 15, whence the,captain todi passage
for Nett York. on his way home. This
is certainly au extraordinary instance of
the fearful capabilities of the whale, and
we believe the like has occurred but once
before, which happened in the case of a
Nantucket ship many years ago.

at to be tried separately.. The case is be
ing prepared with the greatest care, the
District Attorney having been occupied
since the 12th of September in preparing
the indictments. A correspondent of the
N. Y.,Tirues says that the order of pro
ceedings will be as follows:
First, they will be tried for TRgASON.
Secondlyohould they be acquitted of
the crime of Treason, they will be taken
to Lancaster and tried in the State Court
for the Murder of Edward Gorsuch. And
at the suggestion of the District Attorney
of the United States, the States's Attorney
for the Lancaster District has already lodg
ed at the Prison, warrants charging all the
prisoners with the crime of murder.
" Thirdly, if they are acquitted both of
treason and murder. they will be tried in
the - Distriet Court of the United States fur
obstructing the Marshal in executing the
process issued by Mr. Commissioner In
graham, and fur aiding in the escape of the
slaves."
LACOFOCO TOLRRANCi.—The constitu
tion of the Locoloco State of New Ham
shire contain. provisions which prevent
Roman Catholics from holding office in
that State. Iu Pennsylvania the Locofocos
profess great toleration but practice great
intolerance.
Judge Campbell was on the Loci-doer)
S. tate Judicial Ticket, having been regular
ly nominated by the Locofoco State Con
vention. Judge Campbell is a member
of the Catholic Church. %Vm. Bigler,
Seth Clover, J. S. Black, Ellis Lewis, J.
B. Gibson and Walter H. Lowrie, were
on the same ticset with Judge Campbell.
William Bigler, Seth Clover, J. S. Black,
Ellis Lewis, J. B. Gibson, and. Wal
ter H. Lowrie are elected by a major
ity ranging from 8,000 to 0,000. and
James Campbell is defeated by belineen 3,
OW and 4,000 ! I Remember these facie
when a Locufocu dares to boast of his par
ty's r toleration.
PutsoNous Cuisicsa.—A lady and gen
tleman, residing in High street, Baltimore,
on, Thursday last, ate heartily of cheese
that was placed upon their table, and soon
were taken with cramps, nausea, and other
symptoms of poisoning. and upon the pro.
per chemical tests being applied to the
food, it was found to be impregnated with
lead,. which had decomposed from the
wrapper, and intermingled with the cheese.
RIGHTS OF PARENTS.—Chief Justice
Shaw has decided a case involving the
right of parents to a child, after having en
trusted it a long time to another. IVhen
a child of the respondent's first wife was
four years old, and its father in embarras
sed circumstances, the child was entrusted
to its grand-porents, who have liar a period
of nine years provided for all its wants.—
During this time he made no claim to the
child, and the judge therefore
aline the child had formed new attach
ments as an adopted optof the grand-pa
rents, and no advantage was to he gained
from a change, that the child should remain
with its foster parents.
Tug IRISH EXILES.—Gov. Johnston
has been requested to pre,ide over the
meeting, to be held shortly in Philadel
phia, to adopt measures to secure the re
lease of Wm. Smith O'Brien and his fel
low exiles. Letters approving the call of
the meeting have been received from ex-
Vice President Dallas, Hon. Richard Rush,
Hon. Joseph R. Ingersoll, and other dis
tinguished gentlemen.
81110 T WHILK HOSTINO.-011 Tuesday
last, Caleb D•onon, son of Arad Damon,
of Hinckley, Medina county, Ohio. was
shot dead while hunting turkeys. Sever
al parties were hunting in the same woods,
and Damon and another hunter were Hp
proaching each other in answer to their
own calls, which each supposed to be an
swered by a turkey. Young Damon was
creeping on his hands and knees, when
Albert Spear, seeing a black object through
the bushes, which lie supposed to be a tur
key, fired upon it. The ball entered Da
mmi's head, killing him instantly. This
sad casuality occurred upon the same day
as a similar one in Pittsfield, and such re

FOR PRESIDENT,
WINFIELD SCOTT.
Subject to the decision of a Whig National Con
vention.)
WE WANT MONEY.
Warlt is unpleasant at all times to DUN
our patrons for the monies duo us for our
labor. We have a goodly list of prompt
paying subscribers, who seldom fail to re
port themselves in good season, and to
these we feel indebted for our ability to
meet more than one pressing engagement.
There are others, however, who either for
; forget that the Printer must have the where
withal to live by, as well as other people,
or who think he has a superabundance of
this world's goods, and can do without his
just dues longer than his neighbors. Now
we do assure both these classes that they
are most egregiously mistaken. Our en
gagements for the regular supply of type,
paper, ink, labor, &c., (to say nothing of
flour, meat, and matters in the eating line—
matters quite as essential to printers as to
other folks,) are heavy and have to be met
in cash, uniformly and promptly ; and ev
ery dollar withheld front us subjects us to
inconvenience and embarrassment.
Now we have an immense number of
small accounts on our books, running
through one, two, three, four, five and six'
years. These may appear trivial to each ;
delinquent patron, but in the aggregate '
they make up a sum of considerable in- 1
portance to us. We have in no instance, 1
since the "Star" passed into our hands,
troubled our patrons with calls front a col-!
lector, preferring to await the promptings
of their own convictions of duty We trust
that this present appeal will be promptly'
and cheerfully responded to. The plain
English of the matter is—"WE WANT
310NEV"—and
our friends must see to it
that we get it.
Std - The approaching November Court
will furnish an opportunity to our patrons I
residing in the County to forward money to
us. Those who get the Star by mail, will
forward by the same means at our risk.
The Rail Road Again.
ifo,..The render will observe in to-dny's
paper a call for a meeting of the Commis
sioners named in the Railroad Charter, for
Tuesday next, at the Court House, to make
arrangements to " put the ball in motion"
again. It is to be hoped that every Com
missioner will evince his interest in the
project by his presence, and, !if needs be,
pat himself to mane inconvenience to lie
there. The Road CAN be made, if we only
go to work in the right spirit. We shall
await the action of the Commissioners with
some anxiety, and hope to nee them go to
work actively and in good earnest. We
shall, from time to time, have a word or
two to say to our readers in favor of the
project, and upon the ways and means by
which it may be consommated.

death will have upon the immediate work

Compeovatlon of Postmasters.
Ora'...Since the new postage law came in
to operation, there has been much com
plaint on the part of postmasters, that
while their labor was increased their com
pensation was . greatly diminished. In
view of this fact, the Postmaster General
has issued a circular, granting an increase
of commissions in the following ratio :
Where the commissions for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1851, did not exceed fifty
dollars, the same amount of commissions
allowed for that year, with 20 per cent.
added thereto shall be allowed and cred
ited to the Postmaster for the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1852 ; more than fifty
and not exceeding one hundred dollars,
15 per cent. ; more than ono hundred and
not exceeding five hundred dollars, twelve
and a half per cent. ; exceeding five hund
red dollars, ten per cent.
The rate of allowance after the present
fiscal year is reserved for future considera
tion, and will be determined on after the
accounts for the first three quarter/ of the
present fiscal year have been adjusted by
the Auditor.

'•DeOatng his Position.),
IrrUnder this head we notice going
the rounds of the opposition presses, a let
ter from J. J. Naux,Esq., recently of the
neighboring town of Hanover, now a resi
dent of Northumberland county ; in which
the writer announces the important fact
that at the late Gubernatorial election he
voted for Col. BIOLKR, and thereby helped
to "save the Union." We notice the mat
ter, not on account of any intrinsic merit
in the article itself, but because of the un
' due importance which seems to be attached
to it by the Democracy, who herald Mr.
NAILE'S defection from the Whig ranks
with a flourish of trumpets that one might
,hardly expect even in the case of a man
of some mark or influence—neither of
which, we presume, that young gentle
man would think of claiming credit for.—

ly in print than the writer of the pretious
epistle to which we allude.
But to the letter. In view of the im
portance attached to it by the Leedom
j press over the State, it may be no more
than right that the public should know
something about the writer. "J. J.
NAILS, Esq.," then be it known, is an
amiable and clever young man, and, as the
title assigned him indicates, a lawyer.—
Like a good many other clever young men
of the same profession, who have despaired
of having their abilities appreciated when
brought in competition with the legal lore
of a county town, he chose the village of
Ilanover as a fitting theatre for the display
of his legal acumen. As is usual for young
men iu like circumstances, he of couase be
came a politician, and identified liimselfae
tively with the Whig party—whether be
cause of the fart that a decided majority
of the people of Hanover were of that po
litical faith, lw because of a conviction of
the excellence of Whig principles, we do
net pretend to say. The facility, however,
with which he has doffed the Whig garb!
and donned that of Locofocoistit upon
changing his residence to a Loeoluco coun
ty, may throw some light upon the matter
He that as it may, "J. J. N.w.x, Esy ,
was known in Ilanover as a Whig, and it
is very probable that he would have con- 1
filmed to be known as a Whig, had he re
maimed in Hanover.
We are inclined to think so, from the
fact that Mr. NAME'S alarm at the possi
ble disruption of the Union and his eon
version to Union-loving Locofocoism, did
not develope themselves until after he had
taken up his abode amid the beeof.xmisni
of Northumberland. Certain it is that he
was a Whig and a Johnston Whig up to
the day of election. 'We know that a few
weeks before the election, he came to Get
tysburg as one of a delegation to solicit
from Gov. Jon NSTON a promise to visit that
place—we know too that he did, with the
Committee, cull on the Governor, and urge
the importance of his going to Hanover.—
We know further, that but a few days be
fore the election, he assisted in getting up
a Johnston Mass meeting in I lanover ; and
we believe that II E VOTED FOR JOHNSTON.
If he did not, he must have been an arrant
hypocrite, for he left his friends under
the
,impression that he intended to do so.
Of this there was so little doubt that the
Bigler men threatened to object to his bal
lot, because of his alleged change of resi
dence.
Now we refer to these things so particu
larly, to show the utter falsity of Mr:
NAILE'S plea that ho was forced to abandon
Gov. Johnston and throw himself into the
embraces of Locofocoism by reason of what
he saw and heard at the Lancaster Whig
State Convention, which placed Gov. Johns
ton in nomination. If his conversion dates
back that far, how comes it that for months
after he labored as usual in the Whig
cause to the extent of his ability, be that
great or small ? how comes it that he
gave himself out as a Johnston man up to
the election ? And how comes it that nei
ther he nor his intimate friends knew of
his conversion until he had gone to North
umberland and had found out that Gov.
Johnston was defeated Nonsense :
There was nothing of it. ' And yet Mr.
Naile takes to himself credit for having
supported Mr. Bigler, and gravely alleges
as the cause of Lis defection from the Whig
ranks the fact that the Lancaster Conven
tion refused to adopt pro-slavery resolutions!
But we have devoted more space to Mr.
Naile and his letter than we had intended
—certainly much more than the matter
merits. That gentleman may be a very
clever young man, but it matters little to
what party he chooses to attach himself,
as he and his influence can count but one
vote. The effort of the Locofoeo press to
make capital out of the otherwise harmless
epistle which he has seen fit to publish to
the world, must be our apology for saying
as much as we have:
Thanksgiving.

The Elections.
30„.The result of the recent elections in
genie of the States is still in doubt. We
give the facts as near as they can be got at
until the official returns come to hand.
MARYLAND elects the entire Loeofo
, co State Ticket by from 1500 to 3000 ma
jority. The State Senate will bo either
11 Whigs to 10 Locos, or 10 Whigs to 11
Locos, according as the right to a seat on
the part of Mr. KEYSER from Baltimore
city, who claims to fill out his full term,
may be decided. The House will have a
Loco majority of 11.
MISSISSIPPI elects Fool's, the Union
candidate for Governor, over Davis, (Se
cessionist) although not by so large a ma
jority as was at first supposed. Thu Tole
gfaph reports Foote elmted, with three
Union members of Congress--4 majority
of Unionists in the House of Representa
tives, and the State Senate doubtful. The
Legislature will have two U. S. Senators
to elect. Foote and Davis have resigned
their seats hi that body.
LOUISIANA elects one Whig and three
Locufocos to Congress--aatne as before.—
Legislature doubtful, although claimed by
the Whigs.
ILLINOIS--all Loco of course. The
"Anti-Bunk" Democracy of this State have
given a heiAiy majority in favor of the es
tablishment of a General Banking Law,
which was submitted to a popular vote.
WISCONSIN is right side up. Far
well (whig) has two or three thousand ma
jority for Governor, and the Legislature
is Whig in both branches. This gives us
nva Whig Governors, any how.
MICHIGAN—Loco by some 10,000
majority.
NEW JERSEY has a Loco Legislature
in both branches—ti majority iu the Senate
and •'R in the House.
NEW YORK is still iu doubt, and no
thing but the official vote can decide the
matter. The reported returns, so far, give
Wright, Loco, for Comptroller, $0 majority,
which, if correct, gives the Democrats n
majority of one in the Canal Board. The
House is in doubt with the prospect of
Whig majority. The Senate is probably
a tic.
The Maryland Election
ms_There is an old adage which incul
cates the duty of every person "minding
his own busiuem." Our Whig friends in
Maryland, who seemed to be so solicitous
about the result of the election in Penn
sylvania, and volunteered some very free
expressions of opinion upon the position
assumed by the Whigs of this State, could
have prOfited some by an observance of the
adage. Probably, if the Baltimore Amer
ican, and other Whig papers in Maryland,
had evinced less zeal in their efforts to
bring about the defeat of Governor John
ston, and had bestowed more attention up
on their own State, they would not now be
subjected to the humiliation of the inglori
ious but well deserved defeat they have
just encountered. As it is, they are enti
tled to but little sympathy. Next time,
they will probably "mind their own Inas
iness."
The Supreme Court
ksti_The newly elected bench of .Judges
of the Supreme Court, are to meet at Har
risburg to-day, to draw lots fur their re
spective terms. By the act of last Ses
sion they arc to meet ten days after the Ist
Tuesday in November, fur that purpose.—
Certificates of the result are to be furnish
ed to the Secretary of the Commonwealth,
w hen'the new Judges will be commissioned.
The first session of the new bench, in bane,
will be in Philadelphia the Ist Monday iu
December next.
The Bench is to be divided by lot into
five classes—one of the Judges to remain in
office for three years, one for six years, one
for nine years, one for twelve years, and
one for fifteen years. The Judge whose
commission shall expire first shall be Chief
Justice during his term, and thereafter each
Judge whose commission shall first expire
shall in turn be the Chief Justice.
Kossuth In England.
JBy reference to the foreign news in
to-day's paper, it will be noticed that Kos
suth had arrived in England, where he
was received with distinguished honor.—
The U.S. frigate Mississippi, which brought
him as far as Gibraltar, arrived at N. York
on Monday with 42 of Kossuth's party.—
The Now York Tribune says that a letter
from Kossuth himself, by the Mississippi,
was received by the mayor of that city, in
which the illustrious exile states that bus
iness of the most urgent nature compelled
him to visit England, and he considered
it best that the steamer should not be de
layed on his account. Ile further states
that he will certainly leave Liverpool for
Now York in the Cunard steamer of the
Bth inst. He thanks the people of New
York, through the mayor, for the kindness
they have evinced toward him. It is un
derstood that Capt. Long and the officers
of the Mississippi, disavow entirely the
statement so widely circulated, of differ
ences between the officers and the Hunga
rians. The letter expresses great gratitude
for the kindness the Hungarians experienc
ed on board the Mississippi.
It is understood that the main object of
Kossuth's visit to England was to provide
for the education of his ehildren—Mr. Cob
den having offered to take charge of them.

which is addressed to L. Gortoti, and some
20 other "Silver Gray" members of thu
Rochester Convention, who are mimed :
Gs NTLENEN have learned with some
Surprise, that in the Whig Convention
held in this city on Saturday last. you sig
nified by your votes, a desire to make me
your Representative in the Legislature of
this State. Never having, at any time
that I recollect, thought, spoken, or :tete&
in any way to commit myself to either the
principles or the policy oldie Whig party ;.
but on the contrary, having always held
and publicly expressed opinions diametri
cally opposed to those held by that part of
the Whig party which you are supposed
to represent, your voting for me, I am
bound in courtesy to suppose, is founded
it: misapprehension of my political sen
timents.
Lest you ehould, at any other time, com
mit a similar blunder," beg to state, once
for all, that I do not believe that the Sla
very question. is settled for ever. Ido nut
believe that slave-catching is either a Chris
tian duty or innocent amusement. do
not believe that he who breaks the arm of
the kidnapper, or wrests the trembling cap
tive from his grasp, is a "traitor." Ido
not believe that Daniel Webster is the
Savior of the Union, or that the Union
stands in need of such a Savior. Ido not
believe that, human enactments are to be
obeyed when they are point blank against
the law of the living Cod. And believing
moat fully (se I do,) the reverse of all this,
you will easily believe me to be a person
wholly unfit to receive the autrrages of gen
tlemen holding the opinions and favoring
the policy of that wing of your party, de

With all the respect which your deci

G F.N. W INFIELD Scorr.—A Locofoco
paper in the West, engaged in depreciating•
the merits of Gen Stott, remarks, that it is
a common proverb. among those who are
personally acquainted with him. that he
is ever complaining of some wound he re
ceived somewhere ;to which the Louis
ville Journal justly replies, that Gen. Scott
does not talk of wounds he never received.
Tile greatest military conqueror in Ameri
ca has no occasion to resort to any such
expedient. It is well known that ttit has
been severely wounded in his coidttry's
service ; and, if any old wound gives him
severe pain, it ie very natural to mention
the fact to friends inquiring as to his health.
We think that Winfield Scott has done
nothing to forfeit the lofty respect and grat
itude which military services like his
would seem fitted to inspire in the heart
of every genuine patriot.
NEW COUPiTERVEIT.—We are indebted

the following description of a new coun

these notes is especially calculated to
coive the unwary, though the paper is some
what different from that on which the gen
uine are printed—the latter being white
and clear, and the former white, tinged
with pink. The engraving, as a whole
is quite defective ; the figure in the Vignette
has but three fingers on the left hand.-6-
So also the female on the left part of the
note, who has an arm around an anchor—
her right hand is minus a finger. Abore
this figure is a female whose right aim
rests upon the top of the anchor ; in the
genuine her neck is hare, whilst in the bad
note there seems to be two or three strings
of beads around it ; her right arm is very
badly engraved and is indistinct ; ir, the
genuine it is perfectly formed and quite air
distinct as any other part of the engraving.

SINGULAR CIROUNSTANCR.--.A reliable
friend detailed recently to the Editor of
the Memphis Enquirer the following sin
gular and interesting occurrence :
"Since the commencement of the term
of the Circuit Court for our county, it be
came necessary for tl, rriweather, brother
of the gentleman some time since murder
ed in our county, to attend as prosecutor
of Peterson. the perpetrator of the horri
ble crime. It so happened that he rode
the horse that his deceased brother was
riding on the day of his murder by Peter
son. He was in the company of some
friends, And travelled the same road. The
horse is a very fine spirited bay, docile,
in temper, and with an intelligent eye.—
When they approached near the scene of
the murder, the horse manifested evident
signs of alarm and restlessness. Obser
ving the singular conduct of the horse,
Merriweather determined to give him the
rein and watch his movements. As he
approached near the spot of the murder,
he elevated his head and tail, and appear
ed to be watchful, and frequently uttered
that snort so peculiar' to spirited horses
when apprehensive of danger. The no
ble
animal finally smelt the ground and
trailed the course by which the body of his
former master had been conveyed by his
murderer. He finally reached the spot,
smelt the ground, and pawed and snorted. I
He then took a circle in the woods at a
nit/prate trot, returned to the place where
the body was found, and repeated the same
ceremony. This he did several times in
succession. And, when reined up, it was
with great reluctance that he was forced to
leave the place."
DEATH OF THE ELEPHANT COLUMBUS.
—The Pittsfield (Mass.) Sun gives the
following account of the death of the Ele
phant Columbus, well known to all Phila
delphians :
The Elephant Columbus, attached to the
menagerie of Raymond & Co., and Herr
Driesbach, died at Lenox, in this county,
on Saturday. Columbus is said to have
been the largest and most valuable etc.
pliant in the United States. He is suppo.
sed to have 100 years old. His weight
was five tons, and he wail valued at $15,-
000. When crossing one of the streams
in Adams, the bridge gave way, and the
elephant was precipitated some fifteen feet
into the water. The injury received in
consequence o t t the accident is said to have
caused his death, and it is rumored that the
owners of the animal have prosecuted the
town of Adams for damages.
WARNING.—Out exchanges of last week
brought us accounts of two fatal accidents,
to which we beg leave to direct attention
in the way of warning. A few days since,
says the Sunbury Gazette, a little girl,
daughter of Solomon Skive, was playing
with the fire on the hearth during the ab
sence of the faintly. when her clothes
caught, and she was burned so severely
that she died the same evening. The Pitta
burg Gazette states that on Saturday last,
a little girl, the daughter of Mr. Absalom
Morris, of that city, wishing to take some
thing front the mantel piece, stood (la the
fender when her clothes caught tire. The
flames were ultimately extinguished by
wrapping her in a piece of carpeting. bet
the poor little sufferer miss NO rev...rely
burned that her recovery is almost impos
sible.
A GRAND ARCRAIOLOOICAL Discovimv.
—Alexander Von flumbolt publishes in
the Gazelle de Spencer some particulars
of his interesting discovery at Adieus of
the Council Chamber where the Five flutt
ered held their deliberations. At a depth
of one foot below the surface he had come
upon a large mass of mscriptions, columns,
statutes, Ste., which forbid a doubt that
there had been the seat of that building.—
The explorations have not gone on as rap
idly as they might, on account of the ex
pense. There is little doubt, however,
that the discovery is of extraordinary im
portance.
Division or OiteooK.—A movement
has lately been eel a lout by the settlers in
Oregon Territery, which has for its object
the organization of a separate Territorial
Government for that portion which lies to
the north of the Columbia river. It is to
be called the Columbia Territory, and
throughout its vast extent is well adapted
to agriculture. commerce, and manufactu
ring. The total absence of all municipal
law and civil officers the great distance
from the seat of the present Government,
and the isolated situation of this part of the
Territory therefrom, and many other ren
eons, are urged as to the propriety of the
organization of a separate Territorial Gov
ernment.
THEE PENNMVANIA RAILROAD.—This
great work is fast approaching completion ;
and before long the cars will be running
continuously over an unbroken iiite. The
rails are already laid from Pittsburg to
Wilkins burg, and in a few days more will
be extendedito Turtle Creek. It is ex
pected that during this month the whole
route from Harrisburg will be open, ex-
eepting 28 miles from Chambers Wills to
Turtle Creek, between which points there
r . are a good turnpike and a plank road.—
About the first of June next, the heavy
work near Greensburg . is to be finished,
and the purpose is to open the entire route,
with the exception of the Mountain Pass,
(over which the company will use the
Portage Railroad of the State works until
their own is completed) about the 4th of
July next.

NEW METHOD or PRESERVING ANIMAL
AND VEGETABLE SUBSTANCEB,—The Navy
- Departnievt are making experiments on a
method of preserving substances, such as
roots, cabbages &c., &c., by drying and
great pressure. The substance to be pre
served is to be dried fora time, carefully in
a stove heated to 95 degrees. This driv es
off the water which they contain. When
dried to a certain point, they are subjected
to the pressure of a powerful hydraulic
press, which brings them to a state of so
lidity nearly equal to that of' pine wood.—
By soaking them in warm water fora short
time, they will absorb enough to bring them
back to their condition before they were
dried. It is said that such preparations
have been thus preserved for four years,
and by soaking and cooking it in the usu
al way, found to be equally as good as
when first subjected to the process.
DEAR FuLLY.—At Ottum wa, lowa, last
week, a party of young men met to serenade
in a rowdy manner Robert Ralson, who
had married a Miss Wood. When the
noise commenced, Messrs. Wood and Ral
son assailed the company by throwing
atones at them. At this time one of the
party, either by accident or design, fired a
a gun and shot Ralson hi the left side, near
the heart. He died the Monday following.
Upon a post mortem examination, it was

wad, a portion of which lodged against the

DREADFUL ACCIDENT.-A correspon
dent of the Buffalo Queen Cily, writing
from Covington,yctober 20th. states that
on Saturday morning, the 27th ult., Mr.
1V illiam True, a farmer about 30 years of
age, living near Covington Centre, Wy
oming county, accidentally killed his wile
with an axe while fixing a pig pen. The fol
lowing are the details :
In order to fix the pen, it was neces
sary to drive two stakes to place the ends
of the rails between near the barn. He
placed one end of a rail on a girt in the
barn, and the other on a back of a (their in
the pig yard, and, mounting on the rail to
drive the stake, his wife holding on the
stake while he drove it, his foot slipped,
mid he fell forward, striking her on the top
of the head with the axe and killed her in
stantly. llis cries alarmed the neighbor
hood a quarter of a mile off. I was near
by, and on the spot in fifteen or twenty
minutes after. A. more heart-rending
scene 1 never saw. tier two little girls,
aged 8 or 0 and 7 or 8, were elinging to
and kissing her, not being able to realize
her death and the poor fellow the picture of
miserr. As is frequently the ease, rumors
were:tibial and a coroner's inquest was held
on Monday ; 12 of his neigh'wors were on
the jury ; they brought in a verdict of ac
cidental death. We who were there at the
time, were fully convinced of that, but, to
satisfy the public, the inquest was held.
