On last Sunday, the inhabitants of one
of the streets of our town were disturb
ed by very noisy dog-6ght. We do
not wish to be over officious; but il seems
tous that the legal talent of the Stale
which has discovered the unconslitution.
ality of the apporlionment law dividing
Hamilton comny, should take the matter
under advisement and find out whether
under the Constitution ofour State, dogs
are part and parcel Of the ''publc."-
And if they should arrive at an affirma
tive conclusion, would it not then be wei
for the member of the "Commitee OF
Public Safety" for this district to insti
tute some "ulterior measures" for the
prevention of such scenes in future2 Il
seems TO us that, if dogs are part of the
public. they should pay some regard lc

During the last week we have receiv-
ed half dozen contradictory reports
from Mexico. The latest is that Con-
Rress had assembled and were waiting
the arrival of the Commissioners at Que.
retaro to commence action upon the
Treaty.
With the above also came the intelll'
gence that Parades and Bustamen'e had
Joined together and had sworn never tc
lay down their arms until they had exter'
minated the Americans from their country
There was also rumor that discus
sion was going on as to whether the Con.
gress of Mexico had any right to cede
away any of the States of Mexico with
out the conseut of the people of those
States. Of course every thing is yet in
doubt.

A merchant in the South. writing to his
friend Merchant in the North, an ex.
tract of whose letter is communicated to
the National InteiIigencer, says:
"ltis needless to say, presume, that
you must take care what you do in these
times, for they are full Of panic. | think
they are aoorse than any | ever knew be-
fore. Heretofore revolutions have come
from ocer. action on sound basis. Now
in the universal disarrangement of 5usi-
ness in Europe. the foundation seems to
be shaken, and may he destroyed for a
time. Never WIS the prospect of the
Southern States so black. Never did the
policy and wisdom of the friends of do
mestc industry shine forth so glorious as
now. The Free Traders were for stak.

decrepit Europe, and they hare succeeded!
and see the result. The Wings were fol
building upa home demand for our pro
duce as rapidly as possible until the de-
mand for cotton would have been perma
nent instead of secondary to Europe: and
then that great Southern interest would
have been secured, let Europe go as she
would. Injured of course, it would be
by such state ot things as the pres
ent, but not threatened, as it now is, will

"COmmIttce OF Public Safety y

Mr.. H. Fl. Robinson, of Lancaster, is
the Donkey Committee of Public Safety
for The 9th Department ofthe Provision
al Government. and is also Editor of the
Ohio Eagle Writing for his paper of
Friday last, he says Of the Wings of Co.
lumbus; that Hundreds ofthem acknowl-
edge that the appointment scheme was
Fraudulent while few of them will claim
that it is constitutional"
He proceeds to say, that-"when we
left Columbus, on Saturday morning. the
common opinion of the candid Wings
was, that Gov. Bebb must call an extra
session"
Now we will wager copy of Col.
Thomas H. Benton's report on common
liars against red cent, that Committee
man Robinson cannot tell the name of One
ofthe hundreds" of Wings of Columbus
who acknowledge the apporlionment
scheme fraudulent, or who admit that it
is unconstitutional.
And we will wager copy ofthe reso-
luton Of the Senate, offered by Col. Ben
ten. expelling from the Senate chamber
rather uncommon liar, against a like
amount of"the hard" that said commit
teeman cannot call to mind the names Of
three, or two, or even One candid Wing
OfColnmbus, or other sane man, who en-.
leriained The common opinion" that
Gov. Bebb must or would "call an extra
session"
lfit were not the indulgence of con,
stitut'onaI inirmity which called forth the
report Of Col. Benton, aud the resolution

COVERING CoRN.--At the south a
shovel plough or scraper is used for COW
ering corn. The hills are made five feet
apart, and smart girl can drop as fast
as two ploughs can cover, so that two
mules and three hands can plant from
IL to 20 acres in a day. One planter FIVE
miles below Augusta cultvates nearly
1000 acres in corn this season. 1t is no
uncommon thing to see thirty ploughs
running in one immense field.

"Barnburners," applied to the two sec
tons oflhe l.ocoioco party in the State

always taking care to supply themselves
with "a "hunk" from the public treasury.
That the Barnbnrnes are those who. dis
appointed in the endeavor to obtain a

There is a brick building on the cor
ner of Broad and Chesnut streets, which,
from our earliest recollections, has had
the reputation of being refuge for some
being from the land of spirits, who has
been in the habit of spending an occasion.
al hour in this world. OF course any lit
tie suspicious circumstance connected
with it would have a tendency to create
an excitement.
During the past week, not little stir
has been occasioned by the discovery of q
hole in the cellar, which evidently has
been dug out for some purpose and ther
filled up. About foot below the surface
was found some boards, which from theil
appearance have been there for some
time. The dirt was thrown out for some
feet below these and yet there was nj
sign of coming 10 the bottom. AROUND
the place dug. the earth was hard. A
species of quartz stone was also throw
out. which by no means was placed there
bynature.
Speculation has been rife and many
coniectures made-some think money 1t
,or haslheen there-others that some indi
vidual has found lodging place agains
lhis viii.
Under these circumstances, we thinl
1t propersnbject for the Committee o
Public Safety" iotake in hand, that SOM
clue may he discovered TO the mystery.
We have heard the opinion pretty gen
orally expressed that the member of tn
committee for this district shouldinstitui
some inquiries concerning it.

Having now been engaged for some time in the
purchase and sale of this article. he would re-
spectlully suggest that butter in order to be kept
good and sweet for some length of time, should be
well dressed and free from milk-nlso TINT it
oughtnot to be too highly saled and should he
kept from the air and light. This may be at
taned measurably by packing the butter away in
crooks in preference to putting it up in separate
