MADAM GEORGE SAND.-The N. Y. Post says that
one of the papers in a late number of the new Wing
Magazine, which will be read with most interest, is
one in vindication of the much abused writings of
George Sand. In this the writer, like the critic in a
recent London Quarterly, undertakes to show that this
woman is not the monster which she is represented to
be by persons who have either never read her writ
ings, or Willingly distorted their tendency. Her SEN
timents and aspirations, he thinks, are not those of a
monster, but of a true, noble hearted woman. 1t
would be well for all who have formed their opinions
Of the accomplished Frenchwoman, from the lying Pc
riodicals of England, either to get her works or read
this defence. At the close of his essay, the writer
administers a rebuke to the ignorant prejudice and
rancorous bigotry of the Paris correspondent of the
National InteQigencer, who does more than any other
single man to give the Americans false notions of
European politics and literature. We are pleased to
see the rebuke come from one who is of his own way
of thinking in politics.

Tornado.

We learn that a destructive Tornado passed over a
portion of Hendricks county, near Brownsburgh on
Tuesday last, filling the roads with trees and DESTROY
ing every thing in It's course. We have heard of one
death, and several injuries; but have not been able TO
get the particulars in detail. Twigs and leaves in
abundance are said to have fallen in this neighborhood
not far from town. We hope some of our friends win
send us full particulars.
Last Saturday morning, a tornado visited the
neighborhood near Vevay. Ia, unroofed some houses,
carried away c~himneys, prostsated fences, and occa-
stoned other damage. Two or three persons were in
jured, but no lives were lost.

EMANCIPATION IN KENrUcKY.-Th Louisville Jour-
nal says:
1.-The question of gradual emancipation has been a
good deal discussed privately among us of late, and
It may come under public discussion soon, but when
ever it does the principles and views of the abolition
its viii have few advocates here. The question will
be viewed as a politico-eccnomical question. 1t will
not be a question of emancipation SO much as a ques-
ton of policy of transferring the slaves into other
States. The most that can be expected is the passage
of a law declaring all persons born after a certain
day free"

DOrr Liberated.

A letter was received yesterday by our friend, DR..
Dunlap, from Rhode Island, dated Providence, June
9th, stating that Gov. Dorr had been the day before
Internationally liberated from prison, and that the re-
p~ublicans were celebrating the event by the firing of
cannon and other demonstration of joy and gladness.
Thus do we gain another triumph over tyranny and
tyrants.

The remains. of General jackson now rest in the
spot so beautifully alluded to by him in his reply to
Commodore Elliott, in the following language:
81 have prepared an humble depository for my
mortal body beside that wherein lies my beloved wife,
where, without any pomp or parade, ! have requested,
when my God calls me to sleep with nay fathers, to be
laid for both of us there to remain until the last
trumpet sounds. to call the dead to judgment, when
we, | hope, shall rise together, clothed with the heav-
emily body promised to all who believe in our glorious
Redeemer, who died for US that we might live, and
by whose atOnement hope for a blessed immortality

6rGen. Santa Anna, lady and family, exiles from
Mexico, arrived at Havana on the 9TH inst, in the Br.
mail steamer Midway from Vera Cruz. They were
going to Venezuela. On the same day Gen. Busta-
mente landed at Havana on his way to Mexico, in the
Br. mail steamer Dee from England.
The Havana papers say that in their Mexican files
they find nothing touching the difficulties about Texas.
All Indications of war between Mexico ard the Unit
ed States had cooled down.
1t is recorded in one of the Havana papers that the
French Secretary of Legation had been insulted by
some Mexican soldiers. The Secretary had required
of the government Of Mexico prompt redress, or he
would demand his passports.

PLANK RoADs-A Montreal correspondent of the
Rochester Democrat, writes June 18th as follows:
81 took a ride yesterday to Chalbly, a fourishing
village, some Is miles from here, over a plank road,
which was built four. years ago, and it proved to be a
charming one, so far as ease for the draught of the
horse was concerned. The planking of the road cost
$4,000 a mile. So far, it has paid 7 per cent. and an
annual surplus of 3d. 800 year reserved as a sinking
fund, to replank when necessary"

Boats at Connersvfiie.

We learn that on Friday last the first Boat came
up the canal to Connersville an event that was greet
ed by the citizens-as well it might be-with the
highest demonstrations of jos. Saturday five or six
others came up, and if the late heavy freshet has not
injured the canal, it may now be announced that nav
igation is uninterrupted from Cincinnati to Corners
Vile. Connersville is a fine place. and for the ener-
gy, zeal and liberality displayed by her citizens to-
wards the canal, deserves to participate largely IN
the benefits and blessings flowing from the compile
ton of the work and although she cannot long ex-
pect to remain at the " head of navigation. ' we Lave
no doubt she is d destined TO become a place Of no small
commercial and manufacturing importance. There
are already there a number of merchants Of wealth,
probity and established reputation-others will come
in, of course. and if they viii unite in doing an hon.
est and fair business, there is no telling what extent
of trade they may command.-Neg Castle Courier

A Coon ELEcrIoNEERING ANRcpore -
A good story is told on Col. Starke Of a
Joke that he put into practical operatio n
on his opponent and companion in the
canvass for Congress, Judge Adams. The
story runs IN this wise: The Judge is re-
presented as unequalled in individual
electloneering, and almost every person
ne met with on their route, he would
stop and have long and friendly chat.
completely fascinating him with the
suavIty of his manners and the friendli-
ness OF his address, starke stood this
Tor long time, but ascertainng that the
Judge, in this quiet, smooth kind of a
way, was, in some degree, neutralizing
his big ticks on the stump, adopted the
following mode TO cure him Of the pro.
pensity. So, one day, while riding on
ahead of the Judge about a quarter of
mile, he met with a tall, awkward, verdant
looking son of the soil, leading an OK, and
accosted him thus: "Good morn,nu.
Trend; about quarter of mile back
you vii! meet with a middle sized, middle
aged man, riding baId-faced, sorrel
horse. wish you to avoid speaking to
hIm, and to give him the road. He is
very crazy, and imaginss that he is reallyI
candidate for Congress, and if you talk
10, or question hi m al all on the subject
he becomes perfectly furious, and even
dangerous. have him in charge, and
10 hope, my friend, that you will yield
him the road, and have no conversation
with him, whatever" In due time he
met with the Judge, and, as
he latter was about addressing him with
he greatest politeness imaginable, he
campered of into the bushes, or and all,
