I. tee miles and a half, with Fashion on is quarter, and Blue Dick close at his !fuels. During this time there were seve rt.l splendid brushes between him and Fashion, which excited the feelings of all to the bighest pitch. But it was evident to e very c.iol observer, that his lady oppo- nent was. merely testing his speed and her own powers; fur as soon as Jos Laird (Fashion's jockey) gave her a louse rein on the third quarter of the fourth mile, she shot past him like a rocket, and was nev er pushed during the rest of the heat. - Second heat.—From a suspicion that, in the first heat, Blue Dick had been held up in order to struggle with Fashion for the second, much sport was still anticipa. ted before 'the affair' was over. All three started, Fashion on the lead, which she maintained throughout the heat, notwithstanding the severe brushes and unceasing struggles of the renowned Blue Dick. The most he could do was gallant ly to wait upon his lady.competitor—much to his own .credit as a horse of gentleman ly breeding, but not much to the satisfac tion of his friends, we suppose. The with is, however, that Fashion is far supe rior to both her opponents, in all the great qualities of a racer; and that in both speed and bottom, she appears to be unapproach able. The attendance, as we said before, was large; and we noticed among the specta tors some of the most distinguished gen. tlemen of our and the neighboring States.

Patriot notices a storm of thunder • and lightning, which occurred in that city on Friday night and Saturday morning, and says that while it continued, and indeed for seieral hours, a vast number of birds passed overthe city. Several were caught. They are described as a very beautiful : bird, about the size of the robin, having a greyish plumage, and exceedicgly wild and restless. Sale of the Main Line of the Public Works.—The Inquirer says, "A gentle man of high character informed us yester day, that in several conversatinns recently held by him with Governor Porter, the Governor assured him of his determina tion to sign the Vain Line Bill before mtd• summer, and assigned reasons which he demed satisfactory for the delay." The General Assembly of the Presby terian Church of the United States, (old school,) in session in Philadelphia, after a discussion of several days, have adopted, by a vote of 122 to 8, a resolution decla ring it to be the judgment of the Assem• bly that neither the constitution nor prac- tice of the Church recognises the right, of rule %to impose hands the ordination of ministers.

It made such an impression upon him that he gave a detailed statement to several persons the next morning, and some time before the facts of the real occurrence be came known to him and his immediate neighbors. After the intelligence of the massacre was received, he still repeated the stoty of his dream, and on being asked if he could identify the murderers, as he saw them in his mind's.eye, he said 'yea,' and pointed to a young man of highly res pectable connexions, who was visible, not far oft', while the party were conversing, said, 'Yonder goes one of them.' " If this "dream" had been published in the days ofSalem Witchcraft (says the Boston Bulletin) this 'young man of highly respectable connexions' would, most prob. ably have lost his life. It is doubtful whether t h e 'highly respectable ever had such a •drearn: and if he had it ought never ;.*) have been communicated to any slue, certainly not to the press. 1 S. B. almost burnt.—The Buffalo Advertiser says:—"The steamboat Gen. Wayne which came in yesterday, narrow ly escaped destruction by fire on Wednes day night, while lying at the wharf at Sane dusky. About one o'clock the fire was discovered to issue from the upper part of the engine room, immediately under the gallows. It was extinguished without do ing any great damage. The passengers unite in saying that it was unquestionably the work of an incendiary. We have re ceived a long card of the passengers ex. culpating the officers and crew from all censure." More TVonderful Prophecies. —The Mil -1 ler theory is being confirmed, some think, daily by phenomena of all kitide,—celes tie!, terrestrial, and we may add, bestial— for instance, the Portland 1:1111etin says:— "We saw a dog trotting by our window just now, whose tail was curled up so as to form a perfect figure three. And inas much as the animal ran on four legs —cor responding to the numerous going to make out the requisite number we could not help thinking it a remarkable circumstance.

He is known tn. have been ill fur some weeks past, and his friends will not be surprised therefore to heat of Lis death." Outrage.—The Pawtucket Chronicle says that a woman by the, name of Taylor residing near Valley Falls, was seized in that village one day last week and rode on a rail. She was accused of mis-conduc in connexion with a .married man. We hardly credit this story. It is too outageous for be;ief, yet considering the spirit of the time and the high state of perfection to which the science of mobbing has been carried, we think it not improbable. The Boston American says, we under stand that an accident occured on board the U. S. Steamship Union. Several men being on the yard, the slings gave way and they were precipitated to the deck. One man had h a arm and ancle broken, the latter very badly, the bones protruding through the flesh. He was cart ied to the Hospital—we did not learn how much the others were injured.

We have had some strangtvisitations in these parts of late. It was but the other day that One Whig brethren were almost soared out of their 'remaining senses,' because of a shower of brim• 'tenet—they thought their time had come, and that they were to get their rem:tat d for all the false pro mises they Made in IMO. Now again, there are "strange noises 4ard in the air." Some say it is the ghost of whiggery shrieking in very agony; others attribute It to a flock of birds which have been passing over onr city, and we incline to the latter belief, and hope our Whig friends will quiet their nerves and not be further alarmed. The birds in question were first heard on Friday night last during a most violent storm of rain, when the lightnings flashed with fearful •ividness and the thunders "Broke as if Heaven's high masonry were crumb ling." Two of these strangers took refuge in the watch house, where— Many birds of different feather Were often found to flock together!

Rep. , Cardinal Mazarin and the Duke of Grammonl.—The cardinal, who was prime minister of France in the region of Louis XII, and during the minority of Louis XIV, was jumping against the wall in his study, for amusement and exercise. The duke, entering suddenly, surprised his em•' inence in an occupation which solemn stupidity would consider very undignified for a cardinal and a prime minister; and in those days, and at the French court, when a wink from a prime minister might cost a man his liberty, if not his life, and certainly blight all his hopes of political preferment, a surprise of a prime minister that wounded hi 4 vanity or pride, might be dangerous. Under such circumstances, any courtier 'less skillful thin the duke' would have been disconcer:ed, would have stammered excuses, retired, and been ' hated and persecuted ur neglected by his eminence. But such an ul l soldier in courts as the duke was not easily caught.' He at once joined in the amusement with all his might. saying. "I'll bet a hundred crowns that I jump higher than your emi nence." Both p - oceeded to jump higher with great vigor; but the duke was care• ful to jump about six inches lower than the cardinal, admitted that he had last the wager, sent the hundred crowns to his em• i inence on the same day, and was appoint— a marshal of France within six months.'

June 3-ta, Pennsylvania Bible Society.—Thei uiversary of this society was celebrated last evening:in St. Andrew's Church, Eighth street above Spruce. The report of the operations of the society was of the most interesting character, and exhibited several facts showing the importance of the great work of supplying destitute families with! the Word of God, and the wonderful el . -I fect produced by its di tribution in places! and communities where the peop'e were • starving ror spiritual food, Three years ago this society resolved to resupply every destitute family in the State; at which lime it was computed that there were not less than ten thousand families without the Bi• ble, Subsequent events proved that there could not be leis than twenty thousand; and still further disclosures made it evi dent that there were not far short of thirty thousand. In the year four thousand fam ilies have baen supplied in the city and county. Nineteen counties have made full explorations of destitu:e families; and four others have nearly completed the work. During the past year 22,788 bibles and testaments have been distributed;' and it is confidently hoped that, in the coming, year, the supply will be complete. The amount of funds received has, beeit 10,774 dollars; and the society is indebted to the American Bible Society nearly $6,000.
