THE SCOTT MEpAL.-This beautiful memorial OF

OF the most exquisite specimens OF American ant that
We have seen. The medal is 81 inches in dame

massive and rich. On side is an admirable life
like bust OF the general with the word" neld Scott

Mexican banners among them,) guns pixies, morlars
and field pieces forming appropriate back ground
On the pedestal is the following inscription "'Fhe

the capital. A spread eagle, holding olive branch
in its mouth is its top-and the column is entwin-

OHlO-1he Land Of Bread.-The Cincinnati Ga

following interesting and gratifying statistics are given
to the producveness OF Ohio in the articles Wheat

counties in this State have produced upwards of million
OF bushels each, OF wheat and that others, deemed

millions OF bushes in 1850 This crop does not appear
in the Census returns; but it is nevertheless reality
Now, there are IN round numbers two millions of peo-
pie and SIX bushels each is abundant allowance for
consumption. We have then this result:

DANVILLE RAILROAD.

We regret to learn that the President and Di
rectors OF the Richmond and Danville Railroad
Company have found it expedent to rescnd their
contract with Messrs. Haryev and Brooke for the
completion of The road to Staunton river. This
work is immediatelyto be let to contract again
as will be seen by the advertisements and ALTHOUGH
the season is unpropitious for obtaining hands, we
hope that no serious delay will be occasoned. 1t
is much to be desired that the policy of making
large contracts will now be abandoned, and the
Georgia plan of letting to planters along the route
be adopted.
