ANOTHER FoUNDLING,-We beg leave
TO inform the Anti Malthusians of both
sexes. that printers are the last persons
upon whom they should impose the surplus
population of their own domicis. As a
general rule they have types enough of
themselves TO look after, without having
TO feed the living shadows of others. This
preliminary has been elected by the fact
that at half past o'clock last evening. y
fine little boy about two weeks old, well
dressed, and wrapped in clean white
blanket, was left in the ball Of the house,
No 176 Madison street, occupied by the
foreman of the press. room Of this Office.
The person who left the child, was seen
by the rays of the moon by several of the
neighbors. He was short thick man of
genteel appearance, and It is believed
would be recognized by those who saw
him. A pillow-case was attached TO the
bundle. marked with letter fl with a full
point. Our worthy foreman, impressed with
the conviction that such quotations. do not
belong to bis case, has locked the child
within the borders Of the aims house, and
he hopes the cruel parents will sleep with
a dagger in their hearts, until they 60 thi.

The Gold Mines OF the South.-It is Gu
rious 10 see the importance that is attach
ed. IN the minds oil most people TO the fact.
that the gold mines Of the Southern States
produce two millions and half of dollars
per annum. II seems as If they thought
this portion of the wealth of the country
was produced without any cost, and that
the amount was clear gain TO the com
munity, just as it would be If the same
amount of gold were to drop from the
clouds. This supposition, however is al
together erroneous. Gold cannot be pro
duced without human labor, and il is very
questionable whether the production Of
gold is more profitable TO the Southernpeo-
pie at large, than the production of rice,
or cotton, or tobacco, by the same number
oil hands. 1t no doubt happens that. when
a rich vein is struck upon, the profits to
the owner may be very great, but in order
TO ascertain whether the country, as a
whole, Is or is not gamer by the discope-
~ oil the mines, we must take into consld-
Grafton, the loss of labor in ftuitless endea-
vors to find gold ore, and in working bar
rem mines, as well as the sinking Of capital
incident to both enterprises. II is thought
that in Mexico more people have been
ruined by mining than by any other busi-
ness, which is proof that the business does
not yield. upon an average. the ordinary
profits of agricultural industry. Adol!ar's
worth Of gold does not enrich the country
any more than dollars worth of cotton,
and when people gaze and stare with their
mouths wide open in amazement, at hear.
ing it said that the South produces t,ro
millions and a half Of dollars worth OF gold,
while they exhibit no emotion On learning
that the same South produces thirty mil
lions of dollars worth Of cotton, it shews
that they consider a nation to be rich in
proportion to The money, and not to The mo
ney's ,co,th, that she possesses.-P. GaS

the 1olh inst. near the Hanging Rock,
on tbe North Western Turnpike Road
about two miles below the Tavern Of

She describes the dress of these two
individuals as having on--one Blue

other Blue Close. bodied Coat and
pantaloons. The same individuals
were noticed by others residing below
