SOMETHING FOR ANAToMrsrs-Not long ago an
OK belonging to MIR. Gusts Mallary of Hamilton
county, Ind.) died Of what is called the bloody
murrain. A neighbor expressed belief that there
we're leeckes in the lrer Of the to test which he
was opened in the presence Of DR.. Palmer,Mr Potts,
Mr.. Minor, Mr.. MalIary and several o,hers-The
liver being examined ON the outside, black spot
was discovered in which they made an incision, and
took out large leech-and on thorough exami-
nation three others were found, all perfectly secret
ed within the liver; alive and enjoying excellent
health and provision. Traces of their courses
through the liver IN various directions we're plainly
seen. Now the question is, how came they there !?
Were they swallowed by the OK and did they at
forwards find a passage or make one to the liver ]?
or are we to suppose leeches to be a natural pro-
duct of the liver? am told they are often TO be
found in the liver OF deer.

IMPORTANT ARTICLE.

We lind the following interesting article in the
Richmond Enquirer, received this morning. The
conduct OF the President and Gen. Lafayette, was
magnaninous IN the first instance,-and just aud
proper in the second. How true is it that here is
a tide in The affairs OF men, -
COMMODORE PORTER.
When the report of prefer having been made
Com. Porter to enter into foreign vice was first
noticed, we expressed our belief in its truth. The
credi,able wainess Of the National Inlelligencer in
publishing doubtful matters is well known and our
opinion is fully confirmed by statement, upon au.
thory, IN that paper that the offer had been made.
But CON- 2. cannot under his present circumstance
es, quit the service of his own country for that Of
another with any degree OF proprely. That he
might have done it. but for recent incident, is too
notorious to affect diffident silence about He
would have been, ere this, reinsated by the Pres-
dent but For the oficious interference of few per
sons in Washington, who erected themselves into a
kind of Tribunal for arraigning the peers OF Com.
T under the himsy preext of rendering him pub
lie dinner, and thus, by drawing in reply to their
indlscreet note, an unguarded letter from the Com.
modore, of course completely frustrated the recon.
Citation which, through the medium of one OF the
best OF men, was about to take place. Subsequent
matters are Of too delicate nature for publication -
We have it probably in our power to explain
souie vi ehc ILLUSIONS III Inc preceding article from
the last Alexandria Herald. General La Fayetle,
who seems never tired of doing good, determined
to interpose his good Offices between Com. Porter
and the President of the United States. He accor-
dinghy appealed to the President, at whose house he
was staying-Gt was on his last visit 10 Washington
and few days before he embarked for his native
country,)-he appealed to the President by the most
urgent motives, requesting him to suspend Com.
Porter's sentence, and to restore him to his rank
and enforcing his application by the remark, that
he should consider the measure as favor done to
himself by the United States. The President yield
ed /; and j: was arranged that when Com. Porter
should wait on Gen. Lafayette to take leave of him,
the President should meet him, present him his
sword, and restore him to the service of his coun-
try. Unfortunately at this crisis Com. Porter re-
ceiyed an invitation to public dinner by some gen
tlemen OF the District whose card drew from the
Commodore those expressions OF dissatisfaction with
the Navy Department, which the world has already
seen in print. Mr.. A. saw this letter showed it
10 Gen. Lafayette, and asked him how under such
circumstances, he could grant the boon which he
had requested? When, therefore, Com. p. waited
upon Gen Lafayette, instead of meeting him as he
intended, the President turned aside and addressed
himself to another of the gentlemen present Such
is the version which have head Of this transac
tom Ed. Richmond Enquirer.

AUTUMN.
With what glory comes and goes the year!
The buds of Spring, those beautiful harbngers
Of sunny skies and cloudless times-enioy
Life's newness, and earth's garniture spread
out;
And when the silver habit of the clouds
Comes down upon the Autumn sun, and with
A sober gladuess the old year takes up
His bright inheritance oil golden fruits,
A pomp and pageant FIJI the splendid scene.
There is beautiful spirit breathing now
It's mellow richness on the clustered trees,
And from beaker full of riches, dyes
Pouring ne glory on the autumn woods,
And dipping in warm light the pillared clouds.
Morn on the mountain, like summer bird,
Lifts up hel purple wing, and in the wales
The gentle wind, sweet and passionate wooer,
Kisses the blushing leaf, and strs up life
Within the solemn weeds Of ash deep-crim-
soned,
And silver beech, and maple yellow-leafed, -
Where Autumn, like a faint old man sits down,
BY the way side a-weary. Through the trees
The golden robin moves the purple finch,
That on the wild cherry and red cedar feeds
A winter bird--comes with lis p'aintive whis-
tie,
And pecks by the witch-hazel, whilst aloud
From cottage roofs the warbllns blue -bird
sings;
And merrily with oft-repeated stroke
Sounds from the threshing floor the busy fail.
o what a glory does this world put on
For him that with feryent heart goes forth
Under the bright and glorious sky, and looks
On dutieswell performed, and days well spent
For him the wind, aye, and the yellow leaves
Shall have voice, and give him eloquent
teachings.
He shall SO hear the solemn hymn, that Death
Has lifted up for all, that ne shall so
To his long resting place without tear
