MORE DNDER.GROuND Discoveries by
THE IANKERs.-That our oonntymen should
so speedily have discovered the mineral matter
which had so long escaped the researches of the
Spaniards in California, must be regarded as
not little extraordinary This, however, mp.
pears not TO be the only instance Of the kind
BY the following account from a New Brunswick
paper, il seems that an inquisitive Yankee nous.
ing about in the by-places Of that region, has
fallen upon bed Of rock salt, which may prove
a most valuable acquisition to the country :
1--WE understand that an American citizen has
discovered an extensive deposit Of Rock Salt in
this province, and that he has made proposition
to the government Of New Brunswick 10 make
them acquainted with the locality, on being as,
sured Of small per centage on the duty paid
10 the government on the quantity raised for a
limited term Of years. we hope our American
neighbours proposition will be favoraby received,
for IL no salt Is raised no money is to be maid,
and the government have it at al times in their
own power to regulate the duty which shall be
collected on the mineral. Ii is, however, rather
singular that we should have had Provincial
Geoogist wandering over the face of the country
for years at heavy expense to The public, and
that he should have discovered no indications Of
this deposit during his peregrinations. Fortu-
nately for the public, a lynx-eyed Yankee occa-
sionally follows in the track Of these well.paid
official gentlemen, and when they happen to
make discovery, such as we have Just referred
TO, we see no reason in the world why they
should not be permitted to benefit by their inge-
nuity"

Court in this town last week. The respondents,
all Irishmen, we're indicted for the murder OF
Matthew Leonard, also an lrishman, at Ludlow,
in September last The parties were all work
men on the railroad. The murder was most
atrocious one. The murdered man was dragged
from bis bed in the night time and butchered
before the eyes of his wife and children The
trial occupied three days, the case having been
committed to the Jury, by the presiding Judge,
Hon Daniel kellogg, on Saturday evening"
The jury came into Court on Monday morning,
Of this week, and stated that they were unable
10 agree on a verdict After some conversation
between The Court and the Counsel, the Jury
was discharged and the prisoners remanded for
another trial. Woodstock Mercury, 22d,

HYDRoPuoBIA.-We commend to the attcn-
ton OF our citizens, the spread and increase Of
canine madness around as The following is
from the N. Y. Express;
" Ilydrophobia has prevailed so very extern
sively in New England, that special ordinances
have been passed in most of the towns and cit
les, to prevent dogs running at large. Cases of
hydrophobia have occurred in Lowell, Methuen,
Medlord, Salem, Springfield, and Hartford, A
mad OK, having been bitten some time since, died
in commissions at West Cambridge. Two Of Mr.
Durgin's hogs in Charlesiown were killed in con-
sequence ofhydrophobia; they had been bitten
by n bulldog, The selectmen of Cohasset have
ordered the destruction of all dogs found at large

MEXICAN ITEMS Rev. Mr. Norris, writing

to confne them to their proper duties, to break
down tho overgrown religious establishments of
the country, and to devote their great wealth to
the cause Of popular education. They are not
Proiestants, nor do they profess any partially
for Professionalism, yet they seem DESTROYS to have
the Scriptures circulated, as a means of opening
the eyes of the people to the abuses of their
church. The common people generally sympa-

are probably not gaining on public opinion.

USrAiTHFuL SERVANTS. 49, That Congress
will ever shake of its idle and dissipated hab-
its, seems hopeless. We say idle, because in
the midst Of questions of momuntous importance,
that body adjourns from Friday to Monday as
though they were a mere pleasure party living
in Washington at their own expense and dis
sipated, because such conduct is unworthy the
industry and energy which characterize the
American people. A few, in both Houses, are
disposed to work for the country, but the major
ity appear TO study how they shall prolong the
session. and pocket its pecuniary profits We
believe there are men enough in the nation who,
if selected by the people would actually repre-
sent them in Congress, and that body would no
longer be a circle of demagonc wind.bags and
brawlcrs. Ere this, steps should have been Ia.
ken to provide for the pressing necessities OF
California and our national interests throughout
the new Territories. In a single day, bill re-
ducing Postage rates might be passed, and one
providing for Branch Mint in this city. But
no long and ridiculous speeches must be made,
to cumber the mails under frank. and be pub
lished in the Government organs at SIS column.
