party, on the tariff issue. H. was ever a
great admirer, and afterwards devoted
adhrrent Of Henry Clay. He become
his correspondent, and always retained
the friendship OF the great Kentuckian.
In his time, MIR. Davis had been the cor

others.
For many years he was the correspon-

Enquirer, ofth,s city, under the sigma
ture OF the "SPy in Washlngton.' He
was also the correspondent Of the London
Times, under the signature OF "the Gene
vese Traveller" These were, probably
the most able letters ever written to that
celebrated paper, from thus country. On
one OCCASION Mr.. Davis was presented TO
the British Minister at Washington,
lord Ashburton,l as the author of those
letters Of the Times. 81 am delighted 10
see you," said the envoy; "they are ex-
t1aordlnary letters. have read them
with great pleasure. l hope, sir, that
you are we'll paid by the Times; if not,
cir, let me know it, will take care that
you are paid handsomely.' Mr.. Davis
begged not to be misunderstood, and SAID
that he was amply paid by the Times
H. received two guineas for each letter
With the coming in OF General Taylor,
Mr.. Davis received the appointment of
'.Agent Of the State Department." which
he held until month ago, when per-
son connected with the Courier and En-
quirer, succeeded him.

The Cambridge (Md.) Chronicle o
Saturday says the wheat crop Of Dorches
Ter county promises TO be the largest ev.
er raised-though in some sections i
has been Injured somewhat by the rus
-occasioned by the recent rains, ant
the very warm weather tor the pas
week.
The Easton (Md.> Gazette says:-The
"army worm' is playing sad havoc will
much OF the wheat and corn in this vi.
cinity. We hear, also some complain
of the 'srust,' which destroys all hope O
nm average crop. Some fields, however
are not touched by either, and promise al
abundant yield. To what extent tn.
crops throus bout the county are DANA
ged, we are not aware, but trust that |,
is far less than is anticipated by those
living near this town.
The Centreville Times savs:-The
growing wheat has not generally impro-
we'd as was expected-some fields present
very good appearance, whilst others
look badly, having been destroyed by
tAs fly. The Mediterranean wheat look.
the most thrifty generally. Should the
rust not attack the crop an average yield
may be calculated upon.
A Duel was on the tapis in Eason,
Nd, during last week, but according tc
the Gazette it was stopped by the arrest
OF one Of the parties before the time Of
meeting.

pride in order that our friends at di--

Gold Found,

A few days since poor but honest la
horer named William Shaw, while exam
inlng an old uniphabned BRICK building
in Appoqulnimink Hundred, near Com
mercial Corner, thrust his handspike in
to the frame oil one Of the windows and
eve it wrench, when perfect shower
81 golden com, OF English stamp, came
pouring down upon him, to his surprise
snd delight. Upon further examina-
zion he finally succeeded in collecting
.'ven hundred and eighty dollars, when
his Impotence and eagerness 10 herald
The good news ,mpelled him TO hasten to
neighbor and make it known, who has
lining to the spot; secured about three
hundred dollars for himself, making in
all about one Thousand dollars. These
two kept the secret for time, but Shaw
id he did not feel as though he ought
TO keep the gold, and therefore made it
known to one or two gentlemen in the
roighborhood. The owner of the hous.
was informed of the fact, whereupon the
matter was left 10 three referees to de-
tsrmlne whether the finder or the owner
OF the building, was entitled to the treas
IRE. In the meantime the gold is de-
posted in the Smyrna Bank. Previous
10 the Revolution, Parson Reading, Rec
tor OF St. AIMS Church, in the above ma
med district, built the house in which
the gold was discovered He was an
English missionary sent out to propa-
gate the Gospel in this country, by The
established church, and was paid by the
Government at home some 60 OF 80
pounds sterling per anum. On the break
ing out OF the war he continued to offer
up prayer for his king, which hisj con.
grega:lon objected 10, and he insisting
upon it, rendered himself very odious TO
the people, who finally threatened to
burn his house and destroy his life. II
is supposed therefore that he secre,ed
this gold from fear, and as he died yerv
suddenly, no one knew OF his wberea-
bouts, although it was understood hat he
had gold hidden. Several Intellectual
searches we're made, but never until the
present time was the treasure discover.

Letter from P0ttsville.
Correspondence ofThc Ceci! WhiC.l
PorTsviLLE, Pa, June 18th, 1850

louisville, Pa, June 10Th, 1871
FRIESp RlckErrs II have for some
time intended writing to you, but sickness,
press Of duties, and receiving and re-
turning calls from my old friends IN the
different towns IN this vicinity, have so
occupied my time that ! have been forced
10 neglect writing to my friends at dis
tance; but have not ceased to think OF
them, and 10 desire 10 see them and hear
from them.
PottsvilIe lies mainly in valley form
ed by the Broad and Sharp mountains, and
gorge through the latter, through which
the Norwegian creek enters into the
Schnylkll river. The town is in the form
Of cross, running about two miles along
those valleys, and widening along the
slopes or sides of the mountains The
population Immediately in the town has
been variousl y rated at from 5000 to
10000. 1t is not quite so dense now as
formerly, many having gone TO other
points IN the coal region. But the trade
OF the town does not depend upon its own
population. In every valley among these
mountains there are collieries, and at each
there are the rude habitatons Of the
miners. From all these points the people
pour into the toxin on Saturdays, so that
a stranger would think there was Fair
or Holiday. But this is only seen in
brisk times, sucl, as were from 1S42 t
'46, when there was some Protection on
the the staples Of the country Now the
scene is quite changed. Where once
there was nothing but active industry and
the cheering hustle Of active life, there is
now almost the stiffness OF death.
1t is truly distressing to pass through
this country and see large furnaces, built
at very great cost, lying idle through the
blind policy OF our Legislation in Con-
gress. FORCES, Rolling mills and immense
col!eries are all lying waste for the want
Of fair protection which Congress could
so easily give; and the policy Of the tariff
of '46 is only enrichIng the people Of
Great Britain, while hundreds Of our no.
BILE, talented and industrious citizens are
either idle or doing runous business. II
George M. Dallas were to come up in this
region, do not know whether they would
not treat him as a traitor should be treat
ed, for he deceived his own friends and
supporters, aud broke his VOWS to advance
their interests. by casting his vote against
the tariff he was pledged TO pcrpetuate,
which pledges had beguiled them TO vote
for him and James X. Polk. il Congress
does not do something this region, with
all its almost unparalleled industry and
perseverance, with all It's immense and
eXhaustless resources, is ruined.
The farming interest is suffering as well
as all other branches OF trade. Land is not
worth more than halt as much here at this
