ing article: ls
 The editor of the Telegraph denies that he at- tempted in 1929, to induce distant editors to come out in favor of MT Calhoun for the next Presidency whether General Jackson should be candidate or not.
 | Our statement is predicated on letter from tic editor of he Hartord Times. to gentleman of high standing in the Republican Party, stating much more at large than we have done ill the Globe, a conversation with the Editor of the Telegraph, in 1899; in which the latter declared, that MT Cai- h0uns pretensons could not be postponed for another four years; that he ,rould be candidate; that ma- Tjority of the Hest icoud Je induced to support him; that he nomd hare the support c fhc ant-masons and General Jackson or Mr Van Baren The same let ter states that the Editor of the Telegraph did | tempt to induce him, (the Editor of the rmes) to come out at once in favor of Mir Calhoun. i. | That letter expect to command in few days. | The Key-Ina a note to his book, Mir Calhoun has unluckily for himself, given key to his character and plans How did the people ofthe United States understand this gentleman in the canvass for the Presidency between Mir Adams, General Jackson, I and Messrs Crawford and Clay? Did not General Jackson's friends understand him to be decidedly with them? In an answer to charge made by Mir Crawford, thathe (Mr Calhoun) was for Mir Adams until Mir Clay went over, MT Calhoun acknowledges that he was a neutral between General Jackson and | Mir Adams, until he ascertained who was the most popular candidate, and then his choice was deter mined on mere abstract principle which, by a mere alteration of attitudes. would have determined | him for Mir Adams.

Harper's Family Lttra1y.-No. XVI. of this ex- cellent series of popular books, combining works of history, voyages and travels biography and natural science, is published this morning. This volume is a" Narrative of Discovery and Adventure in Afri- ca,"-a field of most interesting observation and re- search-is the joint production of Professor Jameson and James Wilson and Hugh Murray, Esquires-all eminent in the walks of modern literature. We have already, more than once, had occasion to speak of the neatness with which these volumes are got up. The perfect uniformity of their mechanical execu- ton, Is likewise another recommendation. Every successive volume has enhanced its claims upon the public attention and the price is so low that all can afford to buy.-Ne,c- York Spectator.

Strange Mutation.--The late bloodess revolution in Hcsse Cass1 (Germany, ) has produced one result not dreamed of in our philosophy. The people, in arranging the detail of affairs for the Elector their ruer have obliged him to separate his private for. tune from the public treasures, and to place in the national cofers the capital acquired by his grand father, from letting out his troops the Hessians to England, to war upon our nation during our revou- tionary struggle. Thus the wages paid fifty years since, for the purposes of sin and oppression.

 1hundering Spring.-In deep glen, in the north vest corner of Upson county, IS curious fountain, popnlarly known the IHundering Spring. It is situated in the middle of cany branch, at the bot tom of high steep hill. the basin of the spring is about ten feet over perfectly round with bright shin ing around it, resembling gold and silver belts, caused by the deposite of fine yellow sand and sin- glass. Though the sand bos up below with consi- derable vehemence the surface of the water is per- fectly smooth and transparent and runs off gently that it's current is scarcely perceptible, and many suppose that the water sinks fast as it rlses The transparency of the water extends about six inches below that bepth, it appears like boiling sand, soap kettle in state of ebullition. The water is nearly blood warm, and has slight sulphurous taste and smell The ebuon is so strong, that it is said to be impossible for person to sink Tn this spring Bathing there is said to be certain for rheu- matism and many cutaneous affections. The boil ing IS irregular, sometimes being scarcely percepti- ble, at other times strong and violent. The basin is said 10 be very deep, and many ignorant people suppose it has no bottom The most remarkable feature however about this spring, is low rumbling noise heard at short intervals, resembling distant thunder, or the low muttcrings of the tempest. This Spring was held in good deal of veneraton, | we are told, by the Indians, who imagined it the laboratory of thunder and storms, and they had an idea, that by agitang the water they could it to thunder and rain. Nearly the top of the hill over the fountain, is deep sink, pit, which they say was the former situation of the Spring and that the Thunder Spirit removed it down to the valley to hide it from the whites.-Macon (Ga.)
