On Saturday, the 18th inst, al the res
idence of Col. John M'Gough in Wash

aged about sixty years.
Sln many respects, the deceased was
a very remarkable man. Scarcely man,

bria, Indiana and Westmoreland counties.
but was personally acquainted with ANDY
DoNNELLY, THE PEDLAR, and by. all will
his memory be cherished with feelings Of
kindness. His kind heart and honest and
upright conduct through long life, en-
deared him to all with whom he became
acquainted. Although totally uneducated,
he managed 10 amass a fortune of over
twenty thousand dollars. We learn that
his remains were taken to Blairsville by
his friends and inferred in the Catholic
burial ground of that place.

The Fastest Foot Race on Record
The great foot race which has been the
chief topic with the .sporting men" for
the week past, took place on the 3Oth ult.
The race was $500, one mile The con-
testants were Hill, a boy of only Is years
old, of Tonawanda, and Canadian In
dian, of Montreal, celebrated runner.
The Canadian was exceedingly well made,
with strength of limb and compactness
of frame rarely seen; while Hill was quite
the contrary; wanting that filling up which
age will give him. AT the word they went
Oft very even, at a race horse speed, Hill
out-footing the Canadian han dsomely. He
made the first quarter in So seconds--con-
tlnued to lead to the half, in minutes Is
seconds. Just after passing the third
quarter, he was taken with cramping in
the side, and stopped, having TO be helped
in. The Canadian then passed and made
the mile in the Unprecedented time of 4
minutes 33 seconds. Had Hill held out
for the mile even faster time would have
been made.-Bufalo Republican.

A New Engine.

A Mr.. Welder, of Detroit, has recently
invented new kind of steam engine,
which is highly praised by the press of
that city. The Free Press, after noticing
II in operation, says:
The steam is let into a small cylinder
which encloses one end OF the shaft, passes
through the shaft to :he cylinder which
forms the arm, the cylinder revolving with
the shaft. Here we have the whole of
the steam engine. We have seen it ma
king its revolutions so rapidly that moth
ing could be seen of the piston rod, and
we would have been at perfect loss TO
have told where the propelling power
was.
The advantages secured 6y this inven-
ton are immense. 1t does away with the
complicated machinery so liable to de-
rangement, and as there is no friction
therefore TO overcome, the same quantity
Of steam must give about two sevenths
more power. 1t even doing away the
complicated machinery does away very
large portion of the expense of the steam
engine. Every portion can now be made
in the lathe, and we think any good shop
could turn out complete saw-mill engine
in ten days, if they had the right of this
invention.

Our readers will doubtless be glad TO
hear from "the man Of the wheeibarrow.
The Alta California, of Aug. 6, chronicles
his arrival.
1.-The Man with the Wheelbarrow, who
had often been noticed by emIgrants who
have seen him on his way across the
plains, arrived at Coloma about week
ago. He states that he got the California
fever, and as he had not the means TO
purchase team, he loaded his wheelbar-
row with one hundred and fifty pounds of
provisions, besides his cooking utensils
and baggage, and started from the States
on the long journey. He was able to
make greater headway than most of the
teams, as he lost no time except for his
meals and sleep. When he arrived at Salt
Lake, he found al opportunity of joining
a company then about starting; SO he left
his faithful hand carriage by the side of
the road, and son he came a whistling."
That man will make his pile.

Mr.. Clay out against the Administers
tiOm.

We regret that we have not room for full account
Of Mr.. Clay's attack upon Gen. Taylor and his advi-
sers. The letter writers speak Of this effort of Mr..
Clay. far surprising in eIoquence and power OF
feeling anything of his latter years.
He spoke powerfully of Gen. Taylor's do-nothing,
or non-action course-of the pressing necessity of
providing government for New Mexico. for protec-
ton against the Indians, aud danger still from
the prospect of conflict between the Texans and the
original inhabitants of Mexico, between whom much
bitter feeling exists. He spoke of New Mexico being
governed now by a mere NIFTY establishment, while
Texas sending out agents to extend her laws
over lbe same territory
From the feeling created by this speech of Mr..
Clay, may look for lively times during the coming
summer Columbus, Ohio, Statesman.
