few days since, we were shewn draught
OF the building for the Asylum for the Deaf
and Dumb and the Blind, at Staunton. Ii
will be an imposing edifce. In the centre a
broad flight of steps ascend to the porch
OF the main entrance, which is ornamented
by large fluted columns. On either side
there are spacious wings divided into apart
ments for the different purposes of the insti-
tuition. The site is near the town of Staun-
ton, upon hill gradually inclining in all di-
rections, ornamented by beautiful grove
The location is admirable for It's airiness,
pretty views and good water; so the pupils
Will have every natural advantage for health
and happiness.
Already we learn that the institution has
afforded buds Of promise, and we are sure
will ere long exhibit ripe fruits of useful
ness. A little blind girl, sent from Rich
mnnd through the benevolent int rposi-
tioh OF brother Editor, who.was fearful that
she strongly inclined to idiocy, has given as
tonlshing signs of intelligence and promises
to be sprghtly and apt pupil. An anec-
dote was mentioned to us by a friend relative
to two or three blind children from Rocking
ham county, who were passionate, profane
and Ignorant when they entered the institu-
ton, having been raised by vicious parents.
Under the management of DR.. Merrillat,
they have become quite amiahle and have
learned to sing sweetly. The PRAYER of eve
~ one must be for the success of this hu-
name institutional Compiler.

A Thrilling Log Cabin Incident


The Wings Of Erie, Pc, says the Albany
Evening Journal, raised a Log-Cabin last
week, from which the Banner of Harrison and
reform was displayed. While engaged in the
dedication of their Cabin, the Wings received
information which led to apprehend a hostile
demonstration from Harbor Creek, portion
OF the Borough whose citizens had ever been
strong jackson and Van Buren, men. Soon
afterwards party of horsemen, about forty in
number, dressed in Indian costume, armed
with Tomahawks and Scalping Knives, ap-
preached the Cabin! The Wings made
prompt preparations to defend their Banner.
The scene became intensely exciting. The
assailants rode up to the Cabin, dismounted
and surrendered themselves upas voluntary
prisoners of war! On inquiry they proved 10
be staunch Jackson men from Harbor Creek
who had taken that mode of arraying them
selves under the Harrison Banner! The
Tomahawk was then buried after which The
string IF the Aateh ,cas pushed doun, and the
fiarbor Checkers were ushered into the Cabin
where they pledged their support to Gen. ifar-
rison in bumper of good old hard cider -

What would be thought of man who
should circulate vile ISLANDERS against his
neighbor, and afterwards, when testimonials
should be produced to prove the falsehood OF
his charges, would turn about and sneerinrly
reply, man who requires the production OF
certificates to sustain his reputation is not
worthy of confidence Ought not the indig-
nans frowns of all who regard truth and fair
ness meet him wherever his conduct was
known! Every one must admit it; yet we
daily see men guilty Of this very course in re-
gard to Gen. Harrison. They call him Gran
N.Y." Coward Petticoat General" and
misrepresent his conduct in every particular
and yet when certificates of the brave men
who were with him in the hour of danger, and
know him best, are published to refuie these
base fabrications, they reply, if General Har-

SIX DAYS LATER FROM LONDON

BY the packet ship United States, Cap

files of London papers to the evening of the
3lst of March, and Liverpool to the Ist OF
April, both dates inclusive.
Among the petitions for change in the
corn laws, presented in the House of Com.
mons, was one from Liverpool, signed by
1900 persons Of both political parties, and
representing a capital Of 80 millions sterling
1t asked, not repeal, but fixed instead OF
a fiuctuating duty.
The report of d declaration of war having
been made against France by the Emperor oil
Morocco, was officially discIedited at Paris
SPAIN.-Letters from Valencia affirm that
Cabrera has actually taken his departure from
his army, but it was not known whether he
was going to France, or to embark at some
port. The letters add that he had lost his in.
fuence in ArragOn. The Biscayan provin.
ces were tranquil. Espartero was marching
OH Castellote.
TURKEY.-No change appears to have Ia
ken place in the relations between Turkey
and Egypt, and the rumors paraded in the
London journals are so evidently without
foundation, thai it is not worth while to no
tce them. One however is important e.
nough to be mentioned-t is that the Shah
of Persia has declared war against the Port,
and actually put his army in march for Con
stantinople. 1t is true that the Shah left Te-
heran on the god CT December. with some
$4,000 men but the best accounts say that
the object OF his movement is to put down
some disturbances and restore tranquility in
