LUDICRoUs COMBAT.

They had funny ways Of settling vsxed
love suits in old times. Hsreis Is an instance,
which We cut from an exchanges: arr
Two gentleman of high birth, the .,oas. (.
Spanisrd and the other German, having
rendered. Msximilian II. many services, tbsy
each, for recompense, demanded bis natural
daughter Helena Schasequin, in marrisge.
The prince who entertained equal respect
for them both, could not give either the
preference, and after much delay he told
them that from che claims they both had to
his attention and regard, he could not give
bis assent for either Of them to marry his
and they must decide il BY their
own prowess and address, but 40 he did DO,
wish to risk the loss Of either, or both, by
suffering them to fight with Offensive ,weap-
ons, he had ordered large bsg to be brougt,
and he who was successful enough to Put
his rival into it, should obtain his daughter,
This strange combat between two genrlt-
men, wss in the presence Of the whole lin
perial Court, and lasted half an hour. At
length the Spaniard yielded to thsG Gstmsn,
Andrew Eliza, Baron Of Teshsrd, who, when
he had got him into the bag, took him on
his back and placed him at the EmpsrOr's
feet, and on the following dsy married the

DoUBLE-RUS SILVER MNE.-The Spirit Of
Jefferson (Charlestown, Va Of yesterday says:
eve published in our last paper the result OF
several scientific experiments, made by the most
distinguished chemists Of Baltimore and Phila-
delphia, which went 10 prove that the silver
mine recently discovered on the land Of the
Messrs. McSherry, situated on the east bank OF
the Shenandoah river, in this county, about
three miles from Harper's Ferry, was Of the
very richest quality, and, 30 far as tested, sur
passed by the products Of no other mine in the
country. The working Of this mine has been
in part commenced by Messrs. Cleveland and
Medlar and their success thus far has exceeded
their most sanguine expectation. To operate
to advantage, however. an amount Of capital Is
requisite, which these gentlemen have not a;
command, and we learn that IL is their desire IA
enlist in the enterprise those who are willing "a
invest n sufficient amount for that purpose
SO far ms the test has been applied, and every
means have been used to make IL thorough AM
complete, the mine promises q rich yield. am
offers great speculation to those who hay,
nerve sufficient for the undertaking. We hop,
the energy and enterprise Of those who arr
already concerned in the matter may reap
rich reward, and that the precious metal tina
has so long lain hidden may be brought 10 thu
light of day."

TREASURE SEEKNa--SPIRITUAL HELPERs.-
The New York Sun informs us that I" for several
months past, large party have been, and still
are, busily engaged in digging over the shore
Of the Sound near Stratford light house, in
search of buried treasure. The dggers have
numbered from fifty to one hundred men, FAC
cording to what has been deemed the varying
prospect Of success.) They are camped in the
vicinity, and many of them are accompanied by
their wives and families. Nearly all this time
they have kept the operating ground enclosed,
allowing no unbelievers to enter. Most of them
are from Bridgeport, and all are Of the Andrew
jackson Davis school. The search is said to
have been directed by popular clairvoyants, who
are still looked to- from time to time, for more
minute directions At one time the diggers
supposed they touched the lid of the treasure
box with their sbovels, but, according to their
account, their faith was not sufficiently strong,
and in consequence thereof the box sank twenty
feet deeper before they got hold Of it. Some of
them say that there are two parties Of spirits
who have the box in charge, and that MS yet the
evil spirits, who desire to keep it buried, out
number their opponents, but the others are
gradually gaining ground, and when they be
come the strongest the box win be given up TO
the diggers."

Tn CHRIsTIANA MURpER.-We learn that
the country adjacent to this place continues in
an excited state. Arrests continue to be made.
Quaker. named Joseph Mourse, who. was
brought before the Commissioner, charged with
giving counsel and aiding in the escape of some
Of the suspected parties, who we're afterwards
arrested and testified against him. He was
bound over to appear at the Circuit Court at
Philadelphia, in the sum Of four thousand dol
lars
The prosecuting attorney Of the county has
posse on the ground, and all arrested by tina,
party are claimed by them as the murderers OF
participators. Those confined at Lancaster will
have hearing forthwith before Judge Lewis, on
. writ Of habeas corpus, and should any be
discharged, Marshal Roberts will arrest them
on charge of treason, and they win be re-
moved at once to Philadelphia.
Young Gorsuch, on Monday evening, ap-
peared to be very weak but his physicians
Drs Atlee Of Lancaster, and Patterson Of Chris
tiana, had strong hopes Of his recovery, al
though he was not quite 80 well at 10 o'clock at
night, in consequence probably Of the excite.
ment produced by his sister and some other
intimate friends from Baltimore county having
visited him for the first time since the sad oc.
currence.
An account on Monday stated that Dickinson
Gorsuch, the son, and DR.. Pierce and Joshua
Gorsuch, the nephews of Mr.. Edward Gorsuch,
were slightly better on Monday, and there were
hopes Of the recovery of DR.. Pierce.
The Baltimore Sun learns, from private
source, that Governor Lowe, Immediately upon
the receipt of authentic information, despatched
. special messenger to the President Of the
United States with communication on the
subject
There appears to be no doubt that the negro
who killed Mr.. Gorsuch is identified among the
prisoners.

Tus cuY Posr orsics.---A correspondent
who very unnecessarily withholds bic name FROM
us, writes o long account Of the great ineonys
nienoes Of this once, but remarks that, 90 Oar
as no knows, there 10 not an incompetent or
accommodating clerk there This aecoFds
with our own experience. A building adapted
70 the uses OF the city 10 the only rcnedyi and
il 10 one that should be promptly provided
In this Once there is Of course very large
quantity Of franked matter. and those rcceis.
ing and forwarding il have precedence over all
others. The same description Of oiice, there
fore, that would suit any other city Of forty
thousand inhabitants, is by no means applica-
BILE to Washington; nor indeed should the vast
expense and labor OF receiving and forwarding
such matter devolye upon the city Office
A new edifce Is sadly needed, and should bs
promptly procured; but we do not recommend
q costly and stylish building. This Is entirely
unnecessary. Washington city must nccessa
rily contain structures enough for the uses Of
the General Government to answer for its
adjournment, and the city has not the ability To
equal them in magnifcenoe. Her policy should
therefore be simply to provide such Offices as
are comfortable, decent, and well adapted 10
the requisite uses. The city post-ofiice requires
but one very long, well-lighted room, with a
high ceiling, and having an enclosed corridor
throughout its whole length, that the places OF
delivery may be multiplied indefinitely The
cheapest and best mode Of obtaining such an
Office as is needed would be to receive propo-
sails for the leasing it to the city for q term OF
years. The lower story Of new brick edifce
might thus be obtained on reasonable terms
within few months
