EXTRAORDINARY OCCURRENCE. On last
Thursday, while Mr.. Montgomery, bank
er in Irvine, and another gentleman, were
fishlng in the river Garnock, they were
struck with the appearance of whirlpool
in the centre of the river, which appear
ed as if the waters were rapidly descend
ing into the earth. They Immediately
concluded that the bed of the river had
given way and that the waters were de-
scending into the collieries beneath, and
fastened to the nearest pits mouth to
give the alarm. The men below soon
heard the mighty rushing of the waters,
and FASTENED to escape, which providen-
tally they all effected, though without a
moment to spare, several of them being
up to their pecks in water. The water
continued to pour into the extensive ca.
vltics beneath, and the next day a ire
mendous large space broke down, into
which the whole river descended. leaving
its bed quite dry for the space of mile
on each side ofthe aperture where it had
previously been full six feet deep. On the
flowing of the tide, the depth of the water
below the chasm increased nine feet; the
desolation was awful. The water still
rushed in torrent into the earth. Three
men in a boat had an almost miraculous
escape from being sucked into the vortex
they had no sooner got out than the boat
was drawn down with fearful rapidly.
The great body of water continued to
pour down till the whole workings, which
extended many miles, were completely
hlled, a new scene of terror now pre-
scented tself-the imprisoned air, pressed
ny the weight or wafer, uurst trrIuus,' .iir
surface of the earth in thousand places.
which. for the extent Of many acres, pre-
sented the appearance Of a boiling caul-
dron. immense quantities Of sand and
water were thrown up and descended like
torrents of rain for many hours. BY this
calamity six hundred persons are thrown
out of employ; and so extensive is the de
stIucion as to preclude the hope that the
works are ever to be restored to their for
mer siate.-- Edinburgh Evs. Couranf.

circumstances; or, in other words, the
line Joining the centres of the earth and
the moon fluctuates little in its position,
from Its mean or average intersection
with her surface to the east or westward.
And, moreover, since The axis about which
she revolves is not exactly perpendicular
to her orbit, her poles come alternately
into view for small space at the edge Of
her disc. These phenomena are known
by the name Of Vibrations. In consequence
of these two distinct kinds Of libration, the
same identical point of the moons sur
face is not always the centre of her disc,
aud we, therefore, get sight of a zone Of
a few degrees in breadth on all sides of
the border, beyond an exact hemisphere.
lftllere be inhabitants in the moon, the
earth must present TO them the extraordi--
nary appearance of a moon Of nearly two
degrees in diameter, exhibiting the same
phases as we see the moon to do, but in,
morally fred IN their sky, Tor at least,
changing lis apparent place only by the
small amount Of libration,) while the stars
must seem TO pass slowly beside and be-
hind it. 1t will appear cIouded with va
rlable spots, and belted with equatorial
and tropical zones corresponding TO our
trade winds; and it may be doubted whe,
Their, in their perpetual change, the out.
lines Of our continents and seas can even
be clearly discerned. Herschers Treatise

TIE HoN. ia. ADAMS has been nominal.
ted candidate for governor Of Matsachu-
selts by the antimasonic party, and has ac-
cepted the nomination. Many OF Mr.. AIS
friends regret that he has taken such a
course. The antimasonic party are not
strong enough to elect him; and unless the
influence of his personal character and tai
en.s be sufficient to carry him through, he
has little prospect of escaping the morli6ca-
ton of defeat, in his native state. The
following is Mr.. AS letter Of acceptance.

j JAMES MADISON.

This name will live as long as time
endures; not because he who bears it was
a member of the first American Con-
gress, of which he is now the only surpi-
cor; nor because he was one of the Con
yention, and now the only survivor Of that
Convention. which formed the Federal
Constitution; nor because he has been a
President Of the United States-but be-
cause he filed those distinguished posts as
a patriot should fill such places; by re-
flecting honor upon them, and not deriv.
ing honor from them.
If our country be contemplated, as a
piece of Mosaic, Mr.. Madison will always
be distinguished as among The rarest,
and richest of the parts that compose it.
When, in future times, the eye of pos
terity will be turned to behold the
strength and beauty Of the structure, Mr..
Madison's position in il will be pointed to,
as occupying, nert to Washington's, the
most ehviahle place. 1t will be seen
high above the murkiness of that region
around which party and sel6shness sue
ceeded tolove of country and unstaincd
by single tear from the eyes of proscrib-
ed families, and unassailed by even sigh
from bosom that was wronged.
But we will not trust ourselves to dwell
upon the virtues, and adornings Of this
exalted mind; nor to institute compari.
sons between the times in which it dis.
played its energies, and those in which it
is our lot to live. But the day must come,
when the pen Of faithful history, proud Of
the task, and competent in its fulfilment,
will trace out what is just, and assign to
Mr.. Madison seat beside the most exalt-
ed, and make an equally just disposition
of all who have succeeded him.-Phila.

DR.. Aylen Hazces, of Rappahannock,
Virginia, died on the 3lst ultimo in the
65th year Of his age. The testimony con-
corning him is, that he was one Of the
most generous and kind men that ever
lived; and in evidence it is stated that
for twenty years of his life he practised
his profession actively, though gratuitous-
"; and that all the neighborhood, the
rich and the poor, delight to speak Of the
charity of his heart, and the liberality Of
his hand. One of his last acts, was the
liberation Of more than 100 slaves, and an
appropriation Of 20 dollars each, to assist
in their conveyance to Liberia. We'll
might such a man as this 'departin peace.

DEFICIENCY IN THE LAws.-The Advocate
admits that but a few sheets of two or three
forms are wanting to make up the $500 CO.
pies we were bound to furnish; but still in
ssts, that our contract is in no sense COM
pleted. Last week, we stated in reply to a
Misrepresentation of this kind, that def
cheney of even a hundred copies in so large
a work as the revised laws, was by no means
Unusual, and that mistake of that kind, is
never turned, by the customs of the trade,
to the prejudice Of publisher, when it ap-
pears that his contract has been executed in
good faith, and that ordinary caution has
been used to furnish the requisite number Of
copies. The Advocate, however, does not
believe us, and in his Supplement- tells his
old tale over again, 'that we must forfeit
SC" We have but little anxiety to con,
vince that gentleman that he is wrong-such
an attempt would be hopeless. Neverthe-
less, we wish the public to understand that we
are correct, and hence have taken some pains
to corroborate our statement. Since our last
was issued, we have received from Messrs
Charles and Paschall, of ST. Louis, the fol
lowing note, in reply to line from us, ask.
ing their opinion as to the understanding Of
1.-The trade in cases like ours. Il will be seen

that our statement is sustained in every par
ticuiar The opinion of every publisher, at
all acquainted with his business would be te
the same effect. With the insertion of this
letter we shall close this subject with the fol-
lowing query; and all we have to request Of
the Advocate is, that he will give prompt
and decisive answer Has the state sustain
ed any damage by reason of our failing to
complete the contractor printing the Revised
Laws-if SO, in what manner? An answer
10 this, with the information we have furnish
ed, VIII put to rest all further discussion up
on the subject.
