1 I Lost Child Found. Some five years since a poor woman of the name of Moore, seni her child, then about eight years of age, to the grocery, since which time all attempts to find her whereabouts ha3 proved abortive. A few days since the now grown up girl was recognized by one of her old play mates, in a grocery store upon an errand from the family in which she resided as a domestic. Her playmate asked her why she did not go home to her parents, she burst into tears and replied that she did not know where to find themthat they were dead, &c. The young friend watched hor to her' place of residence, in Etghth street, and urged her to go home, The mother being apprized of the circumstan ces, immediately sought out her child, who gives the following history of her case. When she first approached the grocery, she was ac costed by a man, who enitced her to go with him in a wagon. She lived with his family (ihey had no children) near Tarrytown up wards of two years, when they packed up then- goods, and stated that they wero going to live out vet She did not wish to go, and fled to a neighboring farmer's house, where she found protection and a home. She remained up wards of two years with this family, when she came to the city, and was living as a domestic when discovered as described The mother and father could not recognize the child, -but the child at once recognized them. Their hap piness was complete. A7. Y. Tribune. Preventing a Veto. A story is told of Mr. Van Buren, that while ""on a tour through the West, in 1840, ho was upset in a stage coach, and as he stood up in the mud, and aked the driver how the acci dent happened, was told by that personage, that he had alieady upset eleven members of Con gress, and by so doing, he secured the votes of very one of them for appropriations to the Na tional Road, and as he never before had had a President for a passenger, he thought he would improve the opportunity of doing his duty to the West, in endeavoring to prevent a veto, in case another appropriation should pass. Extraordinary Calves. Mr. G. H. Polhemus, of Pemberton, N. J. has now in his stalls six calves of his own rais ing, nine weeks old, which weigh, in the ag gregate, one thousand seven hundred and fifty neven pounds ! The heaviest of the calres weighing three hundred and seventy-five lbs. Farms in Maine eor nothing. We learn from the Hallowell Gazette that the State of Maine offers a farm to any citizen of the Uni ted States on the most liberal conditions. A law has passed the Legislature giving any man from one to two hundred acres as he may desire, at the nominal price of fifty cents an acre, pay able in two or three years, in work on the high way, a kind of remuneration of as great advan tage to the purchaser as to the'State ; the far mer must, however, clear up a certain number of acres within a given time, and erect a house for his residence, or in other words he must go to work, improve his farm, and make it his home. In the eatern part of Maine, are thousands of acres of productive land owned by the State. Much of that offered to Settlers on the above conditions lies in Aroostook county. migration. The National Road, through this place, is now thronged with emigrants facing towards the setting sun, in seareh of homes and happi ness. Hundreds have passed during the last three weeks, and " the cry is still they come." They uue all kinds of transportation, w.n a shank's pony up to a sixhorae Pennsylvania wagon, which when fully equipped, is like a moving town. The majority of the emigrants are bound iorlowa some for Illinois, Northern Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Missouri. They look generally, like peaceable, heaithy, able-bodied persons. We see little or no drunk enness or ill-behavior among them, and they will, no doubt, make excellent citizens. Indianapolis Journal. Declining the Honor. A Philadelphia paper says : We learn with pleasure that Col. Thomas L Kane of this city piomptly resigned his office of United States Commissioner, on receiving information of -the passage of the Fugitive Slave Bill, requiring U. S. Commissioners to aid in the capture and return of fugitive slaves ; declaring his belief that " no honorable man can longer hold the office." The act is wonhy of his heart, and will bo honored by every man who can appre ciate a noble deed. The Coal Trade. 'The quantity of coal sent by the Reading Railroad this week, says the Minersville Journal of the 12th instant, is 47, 520 tons, which is an increase of nearly 5,000 tons over last week. The railroad company run day and night and not even the election caused any . obstruction to the Irade during last' week. The company are using extraordinary exertions to work every portion of their ma chinery to the be3t advantage, and so fur have surpassed their most sanguine expectations in the quantity weekly transported to market. The Lehigh trade and also the trade on the Little Schuylkill, commenced during the week. The demand for coal continues much greater than the ability to supply, and prices remain firm on Board at Richmond. A new Decision. A judgment was lately given against the cap tain of a militia company at Buffalo, in a jus tice's court, for damages to a buggy wagon, by ihe running away of a span of horses, which became frightned by the noise of martial musk, and the appoarence pf the company as it march ed thro' the streets. An appeal was laker, to the County Court, and the judgment aflimed. Important Notice to Foreigners.
