A Boy wirn a SNORT MEMORY "a
good deacon returning from church one
Sabbath afternoon, was accosted by aman
Sir did you see a boy on the road
driving cart with a bag Of cotton in it -
II think did, +" said the deacon mu-
singIy; "a boy with short memory,
wasn't he !?
The man looked confused and said -
Why do you think he has short memo
ry, sir :" f
The deacon seemed to enjoy his con-
fusion, and even determined to increase il.
II think SO; and think, moreover, that
he must belong to family that have short
memories. F"
What in the world makes You say
that ;" said the man, more perplexed than
ever. .s.s. 4s
Why, simply this" said the old gem
tleman, assuming all of sudden, a very
grave and solemn manner, because God
Almighty has proclaimed from Mount
Sinai, in a most solemn manner, among
other things "Rcmeauber the Sabbath day,
and keep it holy, and that boy has for
gotten all about it. His memory is very
short, indeed-very"

We are panied TO learn by a letter from
Judge VIM. Twigg Of New Hormony, TO
VIM II. Chandler Esq, ,he P. NJ. of this
place, that ALEXANDER Mcclure. (late of
the former place died on the evening of the
9th inst. No person could have died at the
town of his tie residence, whose loss would
be more felt. To say hat he was remarkable
for his benevoence his cordial hospitality, his
profuse charities, would but teetIy express
our appreciation of his noble characler.-
Some of our readers will recoIlert. that he
inherited he large estate OF that Distinguish
ed and eccentric phiIanthropist, William Mac
CIure of whom, however we may disagree
IT'S to some of his opinions. no one can deny,
that he was the pioneer Of he votaries Of the
science OF geology III the United States. He
spent many years of his life IN a geo ogica!
survey of The United States, the results of
which have b en- published at his expense
he WAS The patron OF the 8 Academy Of Ma
tionaI Srience of Philadelphia. " TO which,
hes des other donations since made. he at one
time gave 1900 vOlunes-at other times he
gave 100000, for the use of the Academy,
and for the purpose of erecting building
Probably at other periods previously TO his
death he gave more in money and books; and
we may add that he. whose death We now
record, in order 10 carry out the views OF his
brother, though under no legal obligation,
gave to the same institution, several thousand
dollars the precise mount we do not reco-
lect. But to return to the character of The
deceased whose death, we now announce -
he seemed TO consider Himself rather as The
admirer Of his deceased brother, than as the
iuheritor of his estate 10 one ever asked him
fora favor, which he reiusrd-and without be
ing asked, wherever he heard Of snf ring he
was SURE 10 relieve. Long will his draih be
depored by those who are acquainted with
his virtues. We cannot expect his vacancy
will soon he filled; for heretofore s"ch man,
so amiabe and lovely, so charitable. has not
appeared oftener than once in century.

Mr.. Burt from the select committee to in
vestigate the conduct ofthe Secretary of War
in connection with the Gal pin claim asked
and obtained leave for the committee TO sit
during the SESSIONS of the House until their
lIbors were completed
A motion was made TO reconsider the vote.
by Which a resolution authorizing the pur-
chase of American water-rottei hemp for the
use of the Navy was referred to the commit
tee of the Whole. The motion was discuss
ed but finally laid Oh The table
The House then resolved itself into Com
miitee of the Whole Oh the Presidents Cali
iornia mrssage.
MIR. Howard of Texas, gave notice of IN
amendment he intended to offer to The bill of
Mr.. McClernand. The amendment provides
that il Texas does not accept the proposition
of the General Government to cete some OF
her territory for pecunilry consd eration nc
government shall be organized west OF the
Rio Grande which embraces within it any
pnrtol of territory east OF that river Aud
if Texas accept the prop1SIIiol then the
laws OF that STATE respecting slavery shall
exist i'll any Territory created by Congress
until it is admitted iho the Unol us ii State.
Mr.. Harris, Of Tennessee, then obtained
the floor. He was in favor of taking slaves
to territories. He coull not voc for the adj
mission Of California except as "a slave
State.
Mr.. Corwin followed Mr. Hurts. He
thought there ou rht not to be ii dissenting
Voice to the admis ion of California. He
WAS opposed to attaching to this bill series
Of measures foreign to it. The trainers of
the Constitution never designed AN equilibri-
um between the North and the South. 1t
was delusive TO suprosr that the people OF
the free States were wholesale negro steal
ers. The people of his section looked upon
the n ishvIlle ConventioI scheme with sovr-
reign contempt. The Uniol coui never lie
