Tlie officers in tho building and numerous passers by in the street looked on with deep inrerest.expecting every moment that the poor dog would tumble from his lofty heigth and be dashed to pieces. To return by tho way he ascended was impossible. As if sensible of his dangerous situation he seeming ly gathered up oil his remaining strength for a last desperate effort losave himself, and tothe astonishment of the lookers on, leaped through tho rounds of the ladder tow ards a window in tht! second story of the building, which was at a distance of about twelve feet from him. The dog, being somewhat above the window, jump ed at a slightly descending angle, which ena bled him to catch with his fore feet the sill, when a gentleman, w ho was standing at the window watching his movements, seized hi in by the neck and rescued him from his impen ding fate. .Yf. it.

In a late number of the I'iltburg Statesman, we find a description ofa flower tree w hich is fjund in the interior of Ceylon and may be considered as a wonder ful curiosity, excelling in beauty and grandeur ail other plants in the vegetable kingdom. The body of the tree is sixty f et high, and straight as a ship's mast, without limhor leaf; butsup porting at the top an immense tutl of leaves, each of which is ten or tw elve feet lorg. The stalk of these leaven clasp the body of the tree and incline outward, the long leaves bending over in a raeelul curve. Tins vast crown of evergreen is nfitM'if very grand, but w hen the tree is aiioul fifty years old, there rises from its centre a cone several feet in hiyht, w hich gradually enlarges, until at lenytli it bursts with a lnud explosion, and a vast, brilliant, gol den colored flower, twelve feet in diameter, ap penrs over the elevated tuft of leaves as a gor geous diadem on the head of this queen of the forest. The tree never blooms but once, and does not long turvive this grand display ol mag nificence. An Unchristian Clerovmax.

We have frequently staled that a judicious pro tective tariff was a doctrino always maintained by the democratic party, and which has received the s.inc ion of almost every distinguished democrat in the union, foin the days of .lellVi.on until the pre sent lime. The following is the letter of (Jen. Jnekson, referred to in our last paper, addres ed to s gentleman of Pittsburg, in wlich he speaks ofa Protective Tariff IMI, thi ll beforo Congress. Hit opinions are certainly entitled to some w ight with Id- old supporter. The "fife trade" men will, however, we pieume, rely upon the authoriry of John Adams in support of Ibeii doctrine, a a he wa the only President of the United States that ever advoca'ed such measures. They arc welcome to theii authority, but we think our democratic friend should examine whether or not those who now ad vocate "foe trade" hive not been a little tinctured with the leaven of ancient federalism. But for the letter let every'democat read it, and dicide whetl er he is in favor of a tariff, as recommended by all of our democratic Presidents, or whether he v ill go in favor of the free trade notions of John Ad ams : ''So far as th tariff before us embraces the design ot fostering' and preserving within our selves, the means of national defence and inde pendence, particularly in n state of war, 1 would advocate and support it. Providence has til led our mountains and plains with minerals lead, iron and copper; nnd given us climate anil soil fir "rowing of heuit) and wind.

Beyond this I look at the tnviff with an eyrtn the proprr distribution of labor and ri intur ; and with a view to the discharge of our nation al debt. I will ask what is the real situation of the agriculturist ! Where has the Amtri run farmer a market for his surplus product .' Except for cotton, he neither has a foreign, or a borne market. Does not this clearly prove, when there is ni market cither at home or a broad, that there is too much labor employed in agriculture, and that the channels for labor should be multiplied ! Common sense points out, at once, the remedy. Draw from agricul ture this superabundant IuIkii employ it in mechanism and manufactories, thereby erecting a home market for your breadstutTs, and dis tributing In lair to the most profitable amounts, and benefits for the country will result.
