EXECUTION.

Bishop, who murdered his wife at Ches-
ter6eld, last fall, was executed at Elizabeth
town, agreeable to sentence, en- Friday last
notwithstanding tie lnclemency of the day,
. large concourse Of people braved the storm
till 8 o'clock P. M. to witness the last sad
agony Of one, who, after all, was perhaps
- much sinned against as shining
He made full confession upon the galows,
and assigned as the reason for his desperate
deed, that three Of his neighbors were in the
habit of visiting his wife in his absence. He
was perfectly cool and collected, and gave
the signal for the drop. The rope having
swollen by the storm, the knot did not render,
and the poor wretch suffered a world of
agony-struggling with convulsive effort for
more than five minutes. Our informant
made journey of fifty miles to witness the
scene; and, says he, 81 have had enough.

@MELANcHoLY DEATH.-Thc body of
John Lagan, Of this town, was discovered on
Wednesday morning last, lying cold and life
less upon the ice on the Lake. He was an
industrious shoemaker, and had been at work,
at his trade, for some time past, in Reese
vile, New York. He left that place Tues
day afternoon, and came to the half way
house, as it is called, where he stopped to
take some refreshments. lie remained there
till evening, and started with the intention, it
is supposed, of coming here to visit his fami-
". But, as the night was dark and some
what chilly, il is probable that he lost his way,
and. becoming weary, bewlldcred, ndgrad-
ually benumbed, he fell upon the ice and was
frozen. A coroner's inquest was held upon
his body on Wednesday morning, and the
Verdict was that the deceased came TO his
death by freezing.

AMERICAN GOLD,

TIE GOLD MINES throughout the South
are now actively worked, and with consider
able success. A new mine has been discov-
cred in Moore country, N. c., in which 800
persons arc engaged, raising $50 or $40 per
week TO each hand. The Shining dross' is
found in humps Just below tho surface, and
the search for it is very rudely conducted.-
One lump worth SIG was found. In Stanly
county a rock mine is worked by machinery
with great profit.
In Georgia and Alabama the business is
actively prosecuted. The Fayetteville OBJ
server says:
1t is scarcely too much to say, that the entire mid
die section of North Carolina is great gold mine.
The ore has been discovered in many places, some
at the surface and some deeper that may reason
ably conclude that it abounds throughout the whole
region which presents the same general features. II
is not in every instance, however, that the aborer has
been rewarded for his time, where gold has been
found. The person who found the largest lump of
gold ever discovered, died a bankrupt, and all who
have been in the nelghborhood of one of the mines,
abound there. A few individuals, like the Messrs,
but the great majority Of gold hunters would be much
more proftably and respectfully employed in digging
their corn and cotton fields even at present low prl-

SUGAR FROM CORN,

We have copied to-day, from Ellsworth
report, the entire article on this SUBJECT, and
recommend il to the careful attention of
every reader who takes an interest in the
promotion Of domestic industry, and the de-
vs!OI e.nent Of those resources with which n
bountiful providence has so profusely strewn
,our path. The article cmbodies the re.
suits Of numerous experiments in different
parts of the country, a scientific analysis Of
efthe subject, and sufficient practical instruc-
ton to enable any one to make fair exper-
imsnt. The mill for grinding need not be
expensive, and the report from which we
quote is accompanied by cuts Illustrating its
construction. These we cannot of course
transfer 10 our columns, but shall most cheer
fully hold them at the service Of any one
who may take an interest in the subject
The process is perfectly simple, and the
Notwithstanding the product at 600 TO 1000
lbs. per acre-must surely be satisfactory.
1t is confidently belived by many that corn
will eventually supersede the cane, even
in attitudes where the latter fourishes {;
but, If we could only make it substi.
tute, and between corn and the maple sup
ply ourselves literally with most whole
some luxury, it would be another dealt,
blow TO "hard times" in Vermont. All
accounts concur in representing the juice of
this plant, when it has been grown with re-
fefrnco to the increase Of is saccharinc mat
ter. as some 20 per cent. richer than that of
cane, growing in Louisiana, and sirty per
cent richer than the beet, from which France
now derives large proportion of her sugar.
Ii has many other advantages in tho produce
ton ofsuear. Cane is only propagated by
layers, and IT takes the entire crop of one acre
to plant three. One acre of good corn will
plant hundred. The machinery for crush
ing cane and expressing its juice cost at least
three times as much as that required 10 per-
form the same operation on corn stalks.
We cannot but hope that some individual
among US, who has the means, will make an
experiment, in way to test the subject, and
give the public the result.
