MrcnIcAN.-This infant State de.
serves the credit Of having devised the
most magnificent plan for education of
any in the Union. A University with
branches is endowed with lands which
when sold, at the fair market value. will
yield an income OF over 500, geo, and
the primary schools have landed prom.

GOING THE BIG FIGURE.

city and put up at the Globe Hotel,
where he entered his name as Mr.. Jas.
Webb. He called on several of the dry
goods merchants in Baltimore street and
represented himself as a merchant who
had come to purchase goods to consid-
cradle amount, for which be was pre-.
pared to pay the ready cash. AT one
house he selected goods to the value of
go .ooO, at another of 5 600, &c. until
he had made engagements TO the amount
OF $50 Coo. He did not ask to have
possession of the goods until he should
pay ior them, and the delighted mer.
chants laid the articles carefully aside TO
await his planking up the needful. Ev-
cry one was in eestacies at having such
customerso accommodating, SO affable,
SO genteel, aud so rich. He was Toasted

American Mechanics "A few wears
ago. as remarked by the Pitsburg Adj
vocote, nearly all the locomotive engines
used upon our numerous Railroads, were
imported from England. But now,
thanks to the skill and ingenuity of A.
meTican mechanics, not only has the
current OF importation been arrested but
American locomotives are now largely
exported to England, as well as 10 other
parts OF Europe. In pursuance of for.
elgn orders 20 that effect, Mr.. William
Norris, will despatch, from his locomo.
tive engine mandatory at Philadelphia,
Z engines for Prussia for Austria 2
Tor Hungary ; and 8 for England. In
all, sixteen American locomotives, to be
shipped from one establishment, for En-,
rope, by the first of August. This is
saying mucb-very much for the me-
cbanical skill Of a country, in which the
first stone was laid on the first railroad
within its limits, less than eleven wears

dering through the country and brought
to town on Monday last, by Mr.. George
Engieman, She is not able to give any
satisfactory account of herself. All tina,
we can gather from her is that her name
is MARY--that she came from the noun

their names. She says she wants to 90
