IJSUMAN. Anothi'b Rr.MiRK wu.R Cask ClIARACTI'll. or Came In the month af August last a boy of about j 11 years of age, the son or one of our citizens, wus visiting in the country. Ashe wascros sin;;n li.'M a dog puisued him as an intruder upon his master's premises, and the boy being hlarmed ran for some distance, the dog chasing and baling fiercely. At length as the dog was witlnii h f.-w tPi t of him the boy stumbled nn.1 fell down a bank and broke his leg. The ptje.r feiio was of course terribly alarmed, the ilirjt-i iil liiirliing at hirn aii he lay helpless at h;s f.-et. Hut the instant the dog perceived I t'nt the cliihl was hurt, he returned towird his Master's house and by his voice and actions convinced the family that something was wrong, finally, after having tried in vain to quiet the dog, they followed him till they found the child crying for help, but at sued a distance from any housu that he cuuld never have made himself heard. Had it not been fur the kindness of the dog, his enemy, the Uy would have fainted there, or would have attempted to crawl away, in which case he would doubtless have destroy ed his limb. Tli remarkable feature in this case is that tho tttspou linn of the dog was ao suddenly changed.

Pifinr days t.iTr.R from I'.t.noi-it The news from Pnglatid is 'highly important. The affairs in I'nglanit are aprroacbing a crisis that must soon developp itself. There has been, it is said, a rup ture bet ween Wellington and Peel. Wellington is for putting down the repeal movement by force. Peel is in favor of milder measures and al so in favor of repealing the corn laws. We con dense the following from the papers : There das been no improvement in the pros pect of tl,e baivcst, and the trade in wheat has hi cn active ; not only the previous established advance l as been maintained, but a further rise in pric s has t:iken place at many of the nun kets At Liverpool, the Corn market exhibited the same f-nture of excitement which X'ted for n-aily two months The went her bad hem nn doubt, extremely unfavorable : met no trifling port on of the bal vevt in the Noith of l!n''land and S ctland, and the West of Ireland, remained ui.hoiis-. il. There is a positive certainty that most serious injury has been don- to the potato crop in exten sive districts in the three kingdoms, as well as on the continent. All these causes have joined to raise prices consideiabty. The failure of the potato crop in Ireland is a most distressing event. The accounts connected with this subject, from all parts of that country, are painful in the extreme. The Cotton Market is depressed. The dock-yaids and naval srsenals of P.iigland exhibit extraoidinary activity at the present mo ment. In many of the outposts steam frigates of the largest class have been ordered by the Co vernmeiit. to be ready by a five I period, accoi.l iii2 to the contracts. As Cnland is at peace with all the woihl. those who piofes to see far ther into a millstone than their neighbor, point to the ' Par West'' to Oregon for a solution of the mystery. The Pnseyite rupture with the Aneelitan i church has taken an important turn.

The crop inlK2was 102 millions of bushel-.. In Michigan the crop is comparatively larger than other states. The crop of that state is estimated at 7 millions of bushels. fVyWe copy the following extract fiom the Washington correspondent ol the N. Y. Tribune: Mr. Polk is rather below the medium height, and is very well represented by the lithographic portraits, save that they look more fierce than is abso'utely necessary. There is, I need hardly say, nothing coldly foinial, pon.poiis or imposing in his appearance or manners. He is a simple republican, destitute of pretension, amiable in his manners, evidently kind hcaited, and sincere in bis desires to piep.-rlv fulfil the high duties ot his responsible station. That he is a tlioioughly honest man, and means to do right in all cases, there can be little doubt, and pet haps this very anxiety has in some cases induced him to act too quickly, upon lespresentations, the nature of of which he was notable to judge, lie has made such mistakes as a frank and honest southern man is liable to make, when he comes in contact with our shrewder and more crafty politicians of the north. Mr. Polk and bis lady, a attcrn of lady graces and viitue, are both members of the Presbyteri an Church, and they carry out the soiiieva hat se vere tenets of the creed. Por the first time per haps, since our government was founded, have laiuily prayers been regulaily established at the White House. At the President's dinners he neither drinks w iuehimself not invites bis gursta to drink. A set vant, indeed, ask the guests if tin y will drink wine, and gets it for Ih.-m, if de siie.l, but, asnay well be supposed, the example s.-t by Mr. Polk is gem rally followed by his visi tors. It is understood at Washington that both t ards and quadrilles are to be dispensed w ith at Mrs Polk's sti ties net w inter, and she will, of oiiis ", set the la-hiou I n th ' greater jKirtion of tli" Washington aristocracy. The religious lone of Mr. Pol k's character, and the sti lelni s ofbis morals have ha I an evi dent elli ct upon the city of Wa-binton. So tar as l,a e obsei veil di Hiking is tale and unfashion able every body gin to I'huich, and dissipa tion is mole discount, uuiicrd than at any burner pel iod, judging from descriptions I have had of lile in Washinjli.ii.
