RED RIVER FALLs.-We are gratihed III
being able to state that the commissioners
appointed at the last session OF the lcgisla-
ture, viz: Alfred Flournoy, of Caddo;
James B. Gihner, of Bossier; John W.
Butler, Natchitoches; j. j. Hickman, of
Rapides and Henry Marshall, Of DeSoto,
were to hold their first meeting the present
week, to consider and devise the best means
OF improving the falls in Red river at Alex
andria, so as to secure as far as practicable
permanent steamboat navigation over the
said falls.
DR.. Flournoy left home last week for the
purpose of meeting the commissioners at
Natchitoches, and we are told by the Doe
tor that Colonel Marshall will 90 down also
in company, and there is every probability,
in short there is no doubt, that the gentle
men will act promptly and with such recon-
mendations as will result in The greatest adj
vantage to the immense extent Of country
dependent upon the navigation Of Red riv-
er above the falls The time for their ac-
ton is favorable, inasmuch as the water has
fallen to stage so low as will facilitate their
reconnoisanco--if they deem reconnois-
ance essential to their correct conclusions
and if the State force can be brought up
early to the scene of operations, by the LIST
of January next, passage may be effected
through the falls sufficient for purposes OF
navigation, provided force commensurate
with the importance of the undertaking is
applied to the work.

Thank God for the Harvest.
BY JAMES GOGGINS.


Thank God once more ior the fruitful plain,
Where waves a sea of the bending grain;
Where the golden hues of the morning meet
A mirror bright in the -bathed wheat
The famine ficnd with his wings had thrown
a cloud OF gloom DER the earth's wide zone,
And the peasant boy lone lii the world had wept,
Till he found couch where his mother slept.
But now the Stout of the reaper rings,
Till the blackbird sta IT'S his trembling wings,
While his teart grows Had ds ne flows away,
Ger the harvests brown and the fragrant hay.
Gay sounds are heard where before awoke
No SQUAD from shuttle noi anvil stroke,
And where was heard bet the voice OF wall
The dance. the song, and the smile prevail.
Then God be praised for The fruitful plain,
Where waves a sea Of the bending grain
Where the golden hues OF the morning meet
A mirror bright III the -bathed wheat.

The Spiritual papers at New Haven, re-
port speeches made by Henry Clay. Pro
fessor Barnes informs the editor of the Jour
nal and Courier, published there, that "a
mahogany table went through the motions
of a ship lost at sea, to demonstrate the
manner Of the death Of a person inquired
after. The creaking Of rudaer could be
distinguished very plainly at one end OF the
table, and noise like the rattling of ropes
was also heard At last The table was thrown
sideways resting upon the leaf, and the spirits
seized The medium bodily, and threw her
across the legs where she represented a
drowning person, and screamed out for help.
The medium then said few words as to
the condition of the person inquired after, land
the manner of his death, after which the
table knocked out the number Of persons on
board"

The Vicksburg Sentinel having expressed
its delight at the reunion of the Democratic
party, in the following terms:
"The union Of the parties is perfect, and
has been consecra;ed by the laying on Of
all hands upon Whiggcry'
The Natchez Courier replies as follows:
GA part from the profanity of the jest, it
may be as well to ask what hands are laid
upon whiggcry! Those Of Martin Van Bu-
ron and jefferson Davis; of the editors Of
the n. Y. Evening Post and the Vicksburg
Sentinel of the Cleveland Plandealer and
Natchez Free Trader; of David Wilmot and
e. c. Wilkinson; Of Atwood, of Dix, Of
John Van Buren, and of Cleveland, con-
jointly with those of Forsythe, Of Soulc, Of
A. g. Brown, and of Yanccy; abolitionist,
frocsoil and secessienist, have all entered
into this solemn league; have kissed and
made friends, and hand in hand are attempt
ing to crush the Union Wings of the coun-
try.
''The laying on of hands is usually intend
cd to impart ii blessing. Judging, howev-
er froin the character of the hands employ
ed, it may be presumed that in the present
case, the ceremony was intended for curse,
and that it would have that effect. but We
doubt not, that, that which was ordered to be
curse, will, as III the case of the prophet
of old, prove a beneit instead of an inju-
ry.'

The Orhenl DeclinSdi

The superstitious belief that the 0mnipotent
will yndcate tho right and punish the wrong in
the deadly duel, is not professed by the chivaIry
Of the present day; but to luck and a steady aim
the success Of duelst is generally attributed.
We are therefore surprised when we behold hon.
orable gentlemen resorting to such a mode of
arbiramsnt We learn, far example, that the
Hon Paulus Powell, Of Virginia, sent a copy OF
Mr. Gentry's speech to VIM. q. Carr, esq, Of
Bedford county, Virgiania, who chose to con-
slider that he had taken "au unwarrantable lib
erty in@cnding him, ms the only document which
lie (Mr. Powcll) had ever furnished him with, the
speech Of n renegade Whig." Mr.. Carr, there
fore puhisheda a communication in the Charottcs-
willie Advocate addressed TO Mr.. Powell, in which
sentiments we're expressed to which Mr.. 7. took
exceptions, and subsequently sent MIR. c. chal-
lengc to meet him at some point beyond the limits
of Virginia, the constitution Of which prohibits
duelng Mr.. Carr promptly replied, that he had
no intention of offering personal insult to Mr.
Powell, and that there were insurmountable OBJ
stacles which forbade his taking the course sug-
gcstcd SO, Mr.. Powell has won all til. glory
without encountering any of the dangers Of
duel.

THE AUSTRALIA GOLD DIGGINGs.

By late arrival London from Port Philip accounts
have been received with regard to the Victoria gold mines
up the 9th January, being eleven days later than the
last details Il appears that the excitement was rapidly
increasing and that about twenty thousand people had
already reached the place from the neghbong colonies
Special instances were mentioned in which parties had
obtained gold valued at about $50 per day for
successive days. while since the scarcity Of
the average the chief point Of operation had been E3
These results principally obtained from surface dig

extent II was estimated that since the discovery the
general yield including what had found its way into the
banks had been at least Ct 100000 sterling and that
already up to the 18th Of January, 966OO0 had beer
exported to England.
