this place, and such outpouring OF the people we
never saw. IL appeared ss If the Democrats were
collecting 10 tens OF thousands TO bury Henry Clay
and his disciples politically, forever. The whole
POI ulation seemed TO shout POLK, DALLAS, and
SKUNK, and down with Federal Whiggery One
incident iorcibly struck with; IL the zeal
and activity Of the women and childreD-they all
seemed engaged and deeply interested in the success
of the Of Democracy. The zeal OF the men
astonishing; they all appeared To believe that the
very existence sof the Republic depended upon the
election OF Polk and Dallas, and all their actions
spoke loudly Of their belief and determination con-
quer die in the great effort to redeem the unfortu
nate disasters Of 1910. IL glorious sight TO see
the Democrats IN their might aroused to Just sense
of the importance of the contest and the necessity of
a victory over National Bank foe The shout of
freemeD came down from the hills and up from the
valleys, aud the whole country eemed with men
women, children, banners, and fags-hags of "Polk
and Dallas" and "Old Skunk Forever - The pro-
cessions the music, and the merry faces of beauty

delightful to witness the JOY and the gladness Of
the Democracy and the Federal wings almost
mbued with feeling that made them join in with
the general satisfaction, for the very filled
with the cry of Polk and Dallas !-Huzsa for Polk
and Dallas Ii was noble chorus, and martial
music stimulated soldery to engage in battle

Now there Is not the scmblance of truth in this

effect Governor Polk never held, directly or ind.

any partnership with any human being IN reference

CURE FOR WITCHCRAFT AMONG THE
CAFFRES

The Cape frontier papers relate horrible instance
OF the manner in which wtchcraft is treated by the
chiefs Of Cararia. la August, l643, the chief m
kye, living in the neighborhoOd OF Fort Peddie was
taken Ill, and not speedily recovering, his council
voted that he suffering under witchcraf,.
witch doctor was employed, who indicated one Of the
favortes of the chief as the magician. He was ac-
cordingly seized and sentenced either to discover
the bewtching matter" or to be put TO the torture
As he could not do the first, he about to be suo-
jected to torment, when he escaped "Another VIC
tim was soon selected by the doctor, said to be an
accomplish of him who had made his escape The
executloners were more on the alert in this case
than TO allow Of his escape. He ordered home
to dig up the e~iching matter, but failing pro-
duce what was required, and denying his guilt, he
put to the torture. The act Of laying the victim
in state Of nudity, in the burning sum- his back
preparatory to the hot stone and slow sling pro-
cess, now took place, and a nest of black ants was
strewed over the whole body This put the poor
victim to the most excruciaDg pain and the torture
the greater from his being fastened by his hands
feet and hair to pins driven into the ground and SO
unable to stir. In bringing him to the place of tor
ture, he had been beaten most unmercfuy-so
much So that his jawbone broken and the larynx
severed, SO that he longer breathed through his
mouth, but through the opening thus made in the
windpipe
The natives themselves describe his appearance
at this time most horrii ing. His tormenters,
however, found in this circumstance an additional ia
cility for TORTURE and they filled the wound in the
throat and the mouth, &c (Which they had previous
ly gagged) with the biting aunts Thus he lay tor
mented, and while they were procuring fresh ants,
he sunk under his torture.-.4siatic Journal

NzRY LATE AND INTERESTING FROM ORgonN.-A
letter dated March ", lS44, has been received 10
this city from the mission at Willamette from which
the following interesting items were obtained. The
settlers held meeting the 18th March, to ascer-
tain what progress had been made in collecting $500
to establish newspaper, when 1t was found that
seas had been subscribed and by tho aid Of gentle
men connected with the Hudson's Bay Company it
was increased to $500. A printing press has been
ordered from this city, for Oregon, 10 be shipped TO
the care Of Messrs. Laid & Co, Oahu, Sandwich
Islands. The mission ries have been in usual health
since the departure of Mr. Lee for New York One
Of the settlers writes TO Iowa "Dunt leave the
States with more than s25 in cash. cows are bet
ter. We found no difficulty in procuring hands for
their provisions. There is no danger Of Indians or
English, but you should keep in god COMPANY
Take care OF your cows at Cave river; after that
the Indians will trouble them there is no need Of
guarding them at night. We have all arrived safe
who left Iowa; the doctor has frame within about
a mile of mine; Mr.. Lee stopped at Mr. Spalding'.
mission; Mr.. Little and Mr.. Aiken continued their
journey to California. You may perhaps lose one
quarter or onehrd Of your cattle, but do not let that
discourage you; with proper care you will lose but
lew. Start with salt than is enough to salt
your bread and meat the vegetation is salt enough
all the way."-Nsp York Sun
