Of emigration winch IS setting to. and finds a
terminus in Jasper, is truly gratifying to that
portion of her citizens who take an interest in
her prosperity, and proudly contemplate that
! elevated stand which she is destined to assume,
ere long, among her sis,ersOf the East Many
respectable and valuable citizens, during the
past eighteen months, have been added 10 her
population
The cause Of Jaspers prosperity is attributa-
bic to three facts She embodos as much good
land as any other county in East Miss She
boasts Of two institutions OF learning, equal, if
not superior, to any in either of the new States
And lastly, though not the least important, she
has no equal for fine health and good water
Her Indian population, the supposed unccr-
lainty Of titles to land, and the fact that she has
heretofore been classed with the pine woods
counties of the State, have mainly contributed
to retard her once rapid prosperity. But
Though shades that frown and flowers that
smile"
She is again advancing among the foremost of
her sisters The Indians are now removing :;
titles to land are getting to be more certain; and
the numerous resources of the sell; the great
great variety which she affords to the agricul.
turaIiSt, are getting to be better understood
abroad. The chcapncss of land presents, how,
ever, the strongest indutemcnt to emigrants to
stopin Jasper. Land that will produce from
one thousand to fifteen hundred weight Of seed

PoLITIos.-The Legitimate object Of politics
is the prosperity and happiness Of the whole
people, and those who call themselves states
men, having other objects in view are but mere
domagogucs The idea is, the guardianship Of
equal rights, any thing special, or that which
present expcdieucy may suggest, should be en-
tircly obsolcte-all else should be repulialcd
for the great and eternal principles Of Justice
Special legislation in politics is a violation Of
the equal rights Of the people, not only SO, but
j, isdcmoralizing in its tendency Il puts sell
Gshncss in the place Of patriotism BY such
means, the few are enabled to grow rich at the
expense Of the great balance. This is what we
call robbery-it is, however generally called
legislation.

SOMETHING STRANGE.

the following singular account, on the au-
thority Of an eye witness:
A few days since, while Gillett's grisl

was running, the miller found his mill all at
once to stand still. Thinking II might have
stopped from wan, Of greater head ot
water, he raised his gate higher and in.
creased the quantity. Still the mill tefus.

the machinery, the result Of which was
the discovery that the steel rod or spindle
which passed downward through the cen.
ire of the milestone and rested on another
upright spindle upon which il revolyed, had
become united with this upright spindle in
such q manner as to make OF the separate
and distinct bars, one solid bar, SO perfect.

impossible for the eye TO discover The point

the same size, and at the point of contact
were so closely fitted together as 10 form

within a east iron box of about four inches
square which was always kept filed with
tallow, and of course the ends of the two
