the premises of Mr. Rose, about four
miles above New B iltitnore, on the border
of Lake St. Clair. Some workmen had
been for a considerable time engaged in
digging a well on Mr. Rosa's premises, a
rod or sonorthwest,of the house, which is
of brick and 'newly built, and lied,' by
digging and boring in all, attained the
depth of seventy-five feet. They had
drawn up the augur to the place where
they left off diggingao'd commenced boring
and there left it, with some other tools,
and were at dinner, when they were star
tled by a violent noise, at first like an ex
plosion), and then followed a roar like
""blowing off" a large steam boiler, accom
pacied by a very perceptible trembling of
the foundation of the house. As may be
supposed, the inmates rushed out and be
held, to theitter astonishinent and con
sternatiiiti, iNFwell vomiting forth a huge
colUnin of maid With swill a force as to
throw it to the height of over tam hundred
foot.
Limbs on a tree close by, some of them
two or three inches through, were knocked
off and broken in, pieces by , the coarse
gravel tintiNelebbles us they would have
been
,bye shower of mubkot balls ; the
body of the tree and the apple trees for
thirty yards away were plastered thick
with sand and mud, the augur was blown
ono hundred and fifty toot into the air,und
fell,at a disteneawf one hundred and filly
feet from the well ; a stone weighing six
teen pounds was thrown up, nearly the
same height and fell a hundred yards off.
The ground for full an.sere iu extent was
covered with gravel and sand to the depth
of from one to six inches. The gas has been
several times ignited, and burns with a
beautiful white flame ; and though the
well has been filled up, for fear that the
entire uuderpiuing of the Swan Creek
county might he scattered to the four
winds, the ourtent of gas is so strong that
it finds its way through several crevices
end around the edges of the watt, and
may be at any tiaie ignited, us it often is,
for the satisfaction of visitors.— Detroit

PERFUMES AS PREVENTIVES OF MOULti•
INESS.—Moultlinoss is occasioned by the
growth of minute vegetation. -Ink, paste,
leather, and seeds most frequently suffer
by it. A clove will preserve ink ; any
essential oil atuswers equally well. Leath
er may be kept from mould by the same
substances. Thus, Russian leather, whibh
is perfumed with the tar of birch, never
becomes mouldy ; indeed, it prevents it
from occurring iu other bodies. A few
drops of any essential oil will keep books
entirely free from it. For harness, oil of
turpentine is recommended. Alum and
rosin are used to preserve book binder's
paste, but ineffectually ; oil of turpentine
succeeds better ; hut, by small quantities
of oil of peppermint, anise, or cassia, paste
has been preserved for several years. Dr.
Maculloch recommends the addition to the
flour and water of some bro..vu sugar and
a little corrosive sublimate ; the sugar
keeping it flexible when dry, and the sub
limate preventing it from fermenting and
frotu being attacked by insects. A few
drops of any of the essential oils may be
added to the paste when it is made. It
arms - whom w the air, tutu may be
used by merely wetting it. Seeds ma
also he preserved by the essential oils.;
and this is of great uonstquence when
they are sent to a distance. Of course
moisture must be excluded as much. as
possible, as the oils of °tins prevent only
the had effects .of moulds. —Family

We have never seen the wheat look so
fine at this season of the year as now. , -
The late'rains have brought it up most
beautifully, so that it now thoroughly

The Reenh
KrWe annex a summary of the result
of the Presidential election in the several
States, as far as ascertained. The figures
indicate that Dlr. Buchanan has probably
received a majority of the electoral votes,
although largely in a minority of the pop.
ular vote. Fremont has swept the Nor
thern States generally by an enormous tna-
jnriry—losing Pennsylvania and New Je
rsey by the treachery of professed Ameri
cans and the want of a cordial union be-
tweon the opponents of Buchanan. Indi
ana and Illinois arc thought to be lot in
the sniiie way. The balance of the Nor.
them States stand firm, and roll up unpre
cedented majoritio for Fremont and Free
dom. The telegraphic despatches arc
somewhat confused, but indicate the fol
lowing general result
MAINE has gone for Fremont by a.
bout 30 000 majority—there being a gain
of 1700 in 84 towns since September.
NEW HAMPSHIRE will give Fro.
wont from 5000 to 7000 plurality. Iu

unanimous,„ securing the electioti of Sen-
ator Sumner. Fremont beats Buchanan
about 65,000. Returns flow all but 70
towns foot up--Fremont,lo2,9ll, Bu
chanan 37,373, Fillmore 18,944.
RHODE ISLAND goes for Fremont by a
henry majority, giving 5,628 over Buchanan
and Fillmore combined.
CONNECTICUT gives Frotnont a plural
ity of about 8,000.
NEW YORK bits gone for Fremont by a
plurality of about 30,000 over Buchanan.—
The returns as far as received foot up—Fre

73,173. The entire Stets Republican ticket
is elected, with u majority of the Legislature.
In Now York City there was touch rioting,.

result iu the City was a Buchanan majority of
20,816 I
PENNSYLVANIA.—We have but few re.
turns from the Northern and WcStern Coun
ties. But the treachery of Sanderson and Co.
in the Eastern counties, and the running of a
straight. out Fillmore ticket, has so damaged
us, that the.. State has doubtless gone fdr
Bu

these rascals voted openly for the Buchanan
ticket, giving it . a majority in the City and
County of about 19,000
NEW JERSEY.—The Americans and Re
publieans united on a candidate for Governor,
and have elected him. But the Philadelphia
tricksters succeeded in preventing a union on
the Presidency, and the State is thrown to
chan, along with Pennsylvania.
MICHIGAN is Republican all over—Gov
ernor, Legislature, and Congress. Fremont
has fropt 15,000 to 20,000 majority. Tho Le
gislature, which is nearly unanimously Repub
lican, will have a IL S. Senator to elect instead ,
of Gen. Cass. Thank God for that. '

20,000.

10,000 or 15,000.

fierA shecking tragedy occurred in Phila

clerk in the fancy dry goods establishment of
Messrs. Wilmer & Clawger, No. 139 Market
street, met Philip S. Clawges, a member of tho
firm on seventh street, above Chestett-charg
ed him with having seduced his wife—and itn
,
mediately drew a revolver, discharging three
or four of the barrels, all of which took effect,
one entering the stomach, another the breast,
&c. Clawges was carried to the hospital in a
dying condition. Shurlock immediately gave
himself up, and before the Mayor juitified the
deed. lie says his wife had confessed the se
duction, alleging that Clawges had drugged
the wine he had given her, in order to accomp
lish his purpose. The affair created intense
excitement. Clawges has a wife an d four
children.

LAGER ERR. --Tboosande of signs
best-jog this inscription are nailed up all
over the Queen City, mid in most of the
other large cities of the country. This
differs from ordinary strong beer in no es
sential particular. Its name imports that
it is old, and this we believe, constitutes
ins highest. renemomentlatiou. So popohr
has this beverage !moons, that immensely
large breweries for its 41181111illeilITU, and
vaults for its storage are being construe•
ted in Cincinnati and vicinity. A metal
observer eau readily distinguish the whis
key from the "lager beer" drinker. The
litter is not so boisterous as the former.—
The. beer di inker becomes sluggish nodi
stupid, and bloats up like a slop fed nog.
Some who were violently opposed to whis
key drinking, and hove great horror of
temperance, are brutalizing 07n:olives by
the free use of "lager." Its influence up
on the body is more marked amid deadly
than that of distilled litiammrs. The b••'r
drinker is quite sure that he is hunefitted,
because he gams in flash and has a more
brit hy color. But be is deceived. It is
a well known fact, that a bruise or a flesh
wound, upon a beerArioker. is almost in
curable, and even u slight serrtch upon the
hand has often been known to result in
death. The rosy hoe upon the cheek, in
stead of Whig an indication of health, is
the very opposite. If men will drink al
cohol, it is the part of wisdom in them to
drink the real **naked :rush," old fashion

and Po it turned out with our turtle doves,

"Loved not wisely but too well."
On Wednesday last, shortly after the
arrival of the Lexington train, a gentleman
called upon Mr.. M., and requested to
know if such s couple, describing, the pair
in question, were in the house. Being
answered it; the affirmative, he desired to
be conducted, to their apartment, which
being altown him lit sting open the door,
and there seated upon, one chair. his legs
luxuriously resting upon another, eat the
gentleman. while the lady bending over
him wits daintily arranging Ilia wavy hair.
At atklat sif the apparition whiah thus
burst upon their view, the pair eta rted, and
looked aghast, but as the intrutlor threw
from his breast a revolver. the landlord
placed himself between the parties and
demanded tut explanation. The story
was scent told ; the lady was the wife of
the recent arrival, and eloped ;Mont a
week previouit, from her home in Les ing
tom Ky., whence her husband had tot ed
Iler to her present quarters, with, the lit
' tendon of avenging his wounded honor.
In the meantime, the gay Lothario had
sneaked out of his room, and loft the house,
leaving bis guilty partner to bear the &Mut
of the storm alone. For awhile she tried
those unfailing resources of woman, tears
and liriiierics, anti then, while aelinnwl ed.
giog her error, she palliated it by pleading
coldness upon his part, which chilled her
love, and impressed her with the 'belief
that he had ceased to care for her, and how
in despair at the lose of his affection, she
hid imprudently, and in it moment of reet•

eyes fixed mournfully upon Ins, eke im

landscape Such ae Milton ur Dante might
imagine—intirgatiie, desolate and myster
iotis ! I have come down from die ileck
with the feelings of a inan who has look.

of its Creator." .
Here is a thrilling - narrative in a differ-
eel vein
Oire fastened at last to the great floe
near the shore. making our harbor in a
ertiek which opened with the changes of
the tide.
imperfect diet of the party was
showing' itself more and more in the de
cline of their inuscolAr power. They
seemed scareuly aware of it ihemseive4,
and referred the difficulty they found in
dragging and pushing to something un
common about the ice and sludge, rather
than to their own weakness. 13nt, as we
endeavored AO renew our labors through
the mooting fog, belied on all sides by
ice fields an distorted and rugged as to de.
iv our efforts to cross them, the truth
seemed to burst upon every one. We
had lost this feeling of hunger, an I were
almost satisfied with our pasty broth and
the large draughts of tea which aceotnp•
soled it. I wit' anxious to send our small
boat, the Eric, across to the {ultimo hill at
Appall, where I knew front the Esqui
maux we should find plenty of birds ; but
the strength of the party was insufficient
to drag her.
"We were sorely disheartened and
conk! only wait for the fog to rise, in the
hope of 130111 C smoother platform than that
which was about us, or some lead that
might secs us the painful labor of trackintr•
I had clim b ed the iceberg ; and there was
nothiug io view except the Dalrymple
Rock, with its red brassy face towering
in die' unknown' distance. • But I hardly
got back to my boat, before a gale struck
us front the north-west, and a floe, taking
up a tongue of ice about a mile to the
north of us, bcgan to 'swing upon it like a
pivit, am' close slowly in upon our nar•
row resting place.
"At final our own fine was filen driven
before the wind; but in a little while it en
countered the stationary ice at the foot of
the very rock itself. Ott the instant the
wildest imaginable ruin rose around us.—
Toe men sprang mechanically each nue to
his flt3iloll, bearing back the boats and
stores ;-but I gave up for the moment all
hope of escape. It was not a nip. suc h
as is familiar to Arctic navigators; but the
whole platform where we stood, and for
hundreds of yards on every side of us,
crumbled and crushed and tossed itself
madly under the pressure. Ido not be.
lieve that of our little body of men, all of
them disciplined in ittals,, able to [meow
urn danger while combatting it.s- I do not
believe there is one who this day eau ex
plain how or why—hardly when, in fact—
we found ourselves afloat.
..We, only know that in the midst of a
clamor utterly indescribable, through
which the braying of a thousand trinupets
could 110 more have been heard than ilia
voice of a man, we were shaken and rule •
ad and whirled and let down again in a
swelling waste of broken hammock*, and,
as the men grasped their boat honks in
the stillness that followed, the boats ebbed
II way in a tumultuous akreed of ice .and
snow and water.
"We were born along in this manner
as long as the unbroken remnant of the in.
shore floe cnn filmed revolving, utterly
powerless, and catching a glimpse every
now and then of the brazen headland that
looked down on us through the snowy
sky. At lest the floe taillight up against
the roam, the looser fragments that hung
around it began to separate, end we were
able by our oars a n d boat honks . to force
our battered little flotilla clear of them.—
To Our joyful auprise, we soon found tior 7
selves in a strech of the land water wide
enough to give us rowing room. and with
assured promise of land close ahead:
"As we neared it, we saw the - ohne
fOrbiilden wall of heft ice In at Sutherland
and fidkluyt. We pulled along its mar
gin, seeking in vain ettlier an opening or
access, or a nook of shelter. The gale
ruse and the ice began to drive again ; but
there' was nothing le be done but get at
grapnel out to the belt and hold on for
the rising tide. The flope stove her bot
tom, and lost part ill her. weatherboarding,
and the boats were badly chafed. It was
an awful storm ; and it was not without
constant 'exertion that we kept 'afloat,
bailing 'out' the scud' that broke'over us,
and •varding off the tee with boat hooks.
"At 3 : o'clotk the tide was Wilt enough
for us to' scale•the ice eliff. Otte:by one
