U'mter Ploughjng.-As all stuff clays
are improved by being ploughed in time
10 subject them to the melioratinS lnllu-
ence of frost, we would advise all who
may have such soils intended for spring
culture, to seize every opportunity
through the winter to get them ploughed
md TO recollect that it is their interest
to plough them as deep as strong team
will enable them to do; that in ploughlng
they should see that the work is well
done, no balks left, that the furrow slice
be so turned as to present The greatest
possible surface to be operated upon by
The frost, and that the ploughins be not
done when the ground IS wet,--as clay
soil when turned up in such state be-
comes bed of mortar, whose condition
cannot be improved during the entire
ensuing season

EXTRAORDINARY DEVELOPMENTS
Philadelphia papers, Of Monday, contain
an account Of an affair which shows an
extraordinary and systematic series OF
child stealing on the part of an arttul
woman, and her contederates, for a num-
Der Of years. The case exceeds any
thing to be found in the "Mysteries OF
Paris" The News says:
There was, on Saturday, an examine
ton before Aid. Buckley, which resulted
in some extraordinary developments con-
corning the abduction and supposed re-
cQvery ola very young child, an account
of which was published in the Albany
papers, ofthe early part of last month.
1t appears that about six months or
more ago, Mrs. Hamilton, the wife
of Mr.. James Hamilton, of Albany,
N. Y, being taken dangerously i'll,
was advised by her servant girl to
put out her infant to nurse, who at the
same time recommended a woman named
Caroline Smith, as a careful nurse, which
it now appears she did at this woman's
solicitation, who was anxious, Tor purpo-
ses that will appear, to get possession Of

MR.. CLAY'S SPEECH AND THE
WASHINGTON UNlCN.-Eo part OF
Mr.. CIay'& speech has given more Of
fence to the administration, than that in
which he treats Of the manner in which
the war was brought on by Mr.. Polk. He
traces it directly to the order given by
Mr.. Polk for moving the army from Cor
pus Christi to the Rio Grande-an order
given whilst the administration was in
utter ignorance Of the result Of Mr.. Sli-
dell's mission-and which, under the
circumstances, coull not have failed to
bring on actual hostilities. Mr.. Clay
said this order was given whilst Mr.. Sill
dell was "wcnding his way to Mexico,
with his diplomatic credentials"
The Union denies that this is literally
correct, and states that Mr.. Sldell had
actually ayrircd in Mexico thirty-siX days
before the order for the movement ofthc
army was issued! And it thinks that this
is the real question at issue between Mr..
Clay and itself.
The point in the case isthis: When
Mr.. Polk issued the orler for the move
ment OF the Army from Corpus Christi
to the Rio Grandc, did he hno'c what had
been the result Of Mr.. Slidell's mission'
This is the question, and this is what
Mr.. Clay has remarked upon.
In the strictncss Of language Mr.. Sill
dell might not have been F'wending his
way to the city Of Mexico" at the time
the order was issued; but, as the National
Intelligencer suggests, he must have been
considered as on his way to Mexico, acihs
his dplomat'ca, credentials, so long as it was
uncertain whether or not he would be
received by Mexico in his diplomatic
character. What Mr.. Clay designed to
bring home upon the administration was
the fact, that they gave the order for the
NOV emcnt of the Army, not knowing
whether Mr.. Siidell had or had not been
received by the government Of Mexico;
and to the order, thus given in utter 10
norancc Of what was going on in the CT
ty Of Mexico, must be traced to the actual
commencement Of hostilities.
From this charge Mr.. Polk cannot es-
cape: The order to General Taylor tc
march from Corpus Christi to the Rio
Grande was issued in Washington on tn,
9Th day of January. On the Goth o
January, Mr.. Buchanan, writing from

this editor seems to have no tears 10 shed;
but for the Mexirons; the men who muir.

When Mexico finds that the said and

cannot save her from the divine prophecy,
made more than 1900 years since, that
they who drew the sword, by the sword
shall perish--the fnlimeut of which is
seen IN the defeat Of the Mexican forces
on every battle field-that i'll fate1 nation
will accept the proffers of peace, time

will take new tack. With much GER

Canal Matters Again.

We have received copy ofthe cores.
pondence between the state trustee and
the other canal officers, but it is too vol.
luminous for publication in this weeks
paper. The proceedings of the foreign
trustees, Oh their late visit at Chicago,
correspond perfectly with their uniform
conduct ever since they entered upon their
official duties. We give few items for
the purpose of showing that the public
can no longer hope for reform in the
premises. All the promises which have
been made have been violated and con-
fidence in the foreign trustees is entirely
lost.
twill be recollec:ed that Col. OAKLEY,
al the late meeting Ofthe board in New
York. preferred general charges against
some Of the canal officers, and that his
Witnesses were refused hearing. 1t
svas. however, agreed that the invesliga.
IiOn should be resumed at Chicago, and
that Col. OAKLEY should have a hearing
in reference TO the conduct of the chief
engineer. Col. .. pledges himself to
substantial by the strongest proof, every-
thing that he had charged due time being
OF course allowed to collect and present
his evidence. The foreign trustees bur-
ried on to Chicago in advance OF Col. o.
and, sending for the chief engineer and
his satraPs, they put everything in train
for the white washing business. lmmedi.
Htely on Col. Os arrival. they summoned
him 10 appear before the already organ
lied tribunal, and produce his evidence at
once. They knew that ne had been in
town less than two days time and that he
would be considerably nonplnssed by
such summary proceedings. These officers
manifested in this an expeditions despatch
which the people of illinois would have
been pleased to have seen exercised in
the prosecution of the canal. But there
is some difference between tweedle dunn
and tweeGle dee. Col. o. had no oppor.
tunity to collect his witnesses or prepare
his documentary evidence. He made
propositions to go into an investigation, If
proper time should be allowed him. These
propositions, which are set forth in the
correspondence, were rejected. A fair
and impartial investigation being out of
the question, Col. q. refused to take any
part, consequently Mr.. Gooding and his
parasites has the field 10 themselves.
These officers will find that they cannot
suppress the truth or stifle investigation
in this way. There is a tribunal-the
tribunal ofpublic opinion where every
thing will be laid open. Nous Uerrons.-
