From the New YORK Recorder.
Burial of Judson.
Weep, Birmah, weepl let thy tear-foun'
tains deep,
Be unsealed in this hour of thy sor,
rowl
Shroud thee TO day in thy sable array,
And the Cypress tree plant on the
morrow.
Plant it beside the blue Oceans tide,
That DER his clay tenement rolling,
Bears to tiny shore, and mingles its roar
With the funeral bell that is tolling.
Weep. Birmah. weep! he is sleeping that
sleep,
Which in time never knoweth wa
king;
His labor is done, and the prize he hath
won,
And the conqueror's rest he is taking.
Oh, Earth may not claim to craven his
name,
On her columns above where he lies;
Let his sepulcher be the blue marble
sea,
Like his home in the blue azure
skiesl
Calm roll the wave DER his watery
grave,
And soft blow the breezes DER it;
Unknown let it be in the depths of the
sea,
Lest unconscious we bow and adore
i'll
So shall he sleep in the arms of the
deep,
And angels watch over his sleeping,
Till the graves ofthe just shall yield up
their dust,
And the Ocean the treasure he's
- keeping. G. W. Z

IMPROVEMENT IN TANNING LEATH.
ER.-Henry w. Ellsworth, Esq.
says the Lafayette Journal, has
shown US several specimens Of leath-
er which were tanned under his own
eyes, in the space Of ten minutes, by
a process Of which Marmon Hibberd,
Of Rochester, New York, is the in
ventor. This statement may seem al
most incredible, when it is considered
that six, eight, and ten months are
required to tan leather by the ordi-
nary process. Mr.. Ellsworth has
in his possession a pair of boots and
a pair Of shoes made from raw hide
in less than a day and a half, tanned
by this new process. The leather
is tanned by compound of chemi-
Gals, and, in time and materials. Is a
saving, Of at, least FIVE thousand per
cent. over the present slow method
Of making leather. The right, says
the Journal, for Connecticut and
Massachusetts, was sold for $780,
600, Ohio 70. Sl50,0O0, Michigan
100000. This, undoubtedly, is
one Of the greatest Improvements of
the age. sa55l1ed asii q asY'2 sFse

The official conduct of the Mavor
for the past few days, has been, il
possible, more outrageous than ever.
On Wednesday he arrested John
Barton, ESQ.,, a member Of the Pitts
burgh Bar, under the following cir
cumstances. Mr.. Gutzman, a Ger
man, who short time ago, became
security in the sum Of four thousand
dollars for Barker's appearance at
Court, and for his keeping the peace.
Gutzman, afterwards received a let
ter, warning him that Barker's re-
cognizances were about to be forfeit
ed, and in alarm, he went to consult
Mr.. Barton, who, finding that the
Alderman actually had forfeited the
recognizance, Barker having drawn
a pistol on one of our Oldest and
most respectable citizens, short
time before, advised him TO take out
a bail piece and surrender the May
or. .-.-. Id ...
Gutzman went round TO tell Bar
ker that he must get other bail, and
when he heard the name ofG.'s law
yer, he went to Mr.. Barton's office,
and raising his cane, commenced
cursing and reviling.
Mr.. B. at once ordered his honor
to leave the room, which he did,
threatening TO have him in the watch
house in three minutes. Next day
he sent three OF his constables round
to arrest B. but as the warrant was
illegal, not charging him with any
be refused to 60, and told
The officers to arrest him at their per-
il. This they declined doing and
went away. After transacting some
business, Mr.. Barton, acting under
The advice of some friends, went
round to the Mayors Office, when
his honor, who was moi in a very fit
TO try any one, ordered
him to be taken to the cells below
His officers being afraid to comply
with his demand, the Mayor drew
pistol and presented it at Mr.. B. The
pistol was taken from him, and he
irew another one, cooking it, which
vas also taken from him. He then
became perfectly infuriated, foaming
1t the mouth, and Mr.. Barton who !
lad drawn knife TO defend himself
was hustled into the back yard, his
riends resisting, as much as possible,
he individuals who act Barker's Off
:ers. 1t was then found that the
person who had the keys Of the cells,
laving become alarmed, had run
way with some others, and Mr.. B.
vas called into the back room OF the
'fice, where the Mayor was leaning
N the table, froth issuing from his
mouth. I..Vf
Mr.. Barker's son then discharged
i'm from custody till four O'Clock
hat afternoon, Gt was then long past

ested.-PittSburgh Gazette. !,

EXPLORATION OF THE RIO GRANDE.
A government officer, Maj. Chap
man, has made a report to the War
Department, giving the result of an
exploration to the Rio Grande, made
by Captain Love. These explora-
tions, says the Philadelphia Ledger,
were made for a distance Of 967
miles in a keel-boat drawing eigh-
teen inches OF water, and AZ miles
further in a skif, which was carried
round falls impossible to large crafts.
The substance Of the report is that
the Rio Grande flows through ve-
ry fertile country, most Of il under
cultivation, with abundant game,
and supporting immense flocks of
sheep and herds of goats. Capt.
Love thinks the entire valley is Pc
culiarly fitted for raising sheep. as
from the mildneSs of the climate
they require no sheds during the
whole year. Two inexhaustable
mines of bituminous coal have been
opened on the Texas side OF the riv-
er, and mention is made OF several
rich silver mines on the Mexican
side, some forty or fifty miles back
from Preside Rio Grande, which
were formerly worked TO advantage
by the Spaniards.

We find in the SteubenviIIs Herald
letter from Ex-Governor Shannon
to his family in this State, which
gives very dark and gloomy colo.
ring to existing prospects and affairs
in California. The letter is dated
San Francisco, August 26th. He
says: araIs

so profitable as formerly, owing to
the great number engaged in it.

"This is bad place for me at this
time. Every body in the west knows

on me on the score of political favor;
and for mere support. They come
here without a dollar wherewith to
buy a crust of bread, and they are
continually calling upon me for aid.
