KEEP 1T BEFORE THE PEOPL E.

That General Pierce is bitterly OPP
posed to River and Harb or improve

REPUBLlcANIsM IN AUsTRALIA.-[n-
telligence from Australia seems to indi-
cate that the tendency toward Republi-
canlsm is progressing rapidly in the
Colony, and declaration Of indepen-
dence is looked for, ere long.

The EARTHQUAKE IN CUBA. The
Picayune contains some further parti
culars in relation to the earthquake in
Cuba. 1t appears that there were five
distinct shocks. Many of the churches
We're so injured that they had to be
closed. Affairs were erected IN the
streets, before which the excited peo'
pie continually Frustrated themselves
The shocks occurred about half-past three
o'clock in the morning, and the intense
darkness added to the horror of the
scene. Crowds of men, women and
children ran frantic through The streets
H. Recently man of the name OF
Mackenzie Rose, residing in the town Of
Brockville, Canada, observed boat in
the river with the American flag hoisted
above the Union Jack, and was so in
censed at the supposed insult to his
country, that he undertook to swim to
the vessel for the purpose of resenting
the afront. The unfortunate loyalist
having jumped into the river, was sad
IDENTIFY seized with an apoplect!c fit, and
before assistance could be rendered was
drowned.
GUANo. The Lobos Islands, or the
right of Americans to the fine quality
Guano there, is a matter worth contend
ing about. Liebig, the world renown-
ed Agricultural Chemist, says. that "one
pound of guano imported into coun-
try, is equal in value to eight pounds
OF wheat, or twelve and half cents"
1t was stated a few days since that ten
tons was worth to the farmer $500 net
profit. Liebig's calculation would make
it worth much larger sum; and instead
of furnishing a family of ten with bread
for six years, it would do so for twenty
five years

Curious EFFECT OF FASHION ON THE
SENSES. When the Paine's Patent Ven
tilatlng Car was first put in operation or
the New York and New Haven railroad
the ventilating vessel in honor of the
commencement of the experiment, in.
stead of water, was filled with per-
fumes, cologne patceoule, jockey club
bergamot, &c. Of course the air came
to the passengers laden with those lu,
xurious odors. But they, not being
biased by a knowledge of the secret, and
not accustomed to expect fragrance in
an express train, unanimously protested
against "that very disagreeable smell.'
The only point to be settled is, wheth-
er the fashionable or the railway esti-
mate of the perfumer is correct one.
The JAPAN ExpEDITIoN.-lt is rumor-
ed that the proposed expedition to ia
pan, under Commodore Perry, will be
abandoned. at least, for the present
the Government not being able to spare
a sufficient number of vessels, to justify
the undert aking.

SIG%s IN THE " IsT.-We mentioned some
tine ago tia, .'The Germana'' a German paper
published at Cleveland. Ohio, had hauled down
the Fierce and King flag and hoisted that of
Scott and Graham. We now perceive that the
".Owu Staais IRitupg" the German organ OF De-
muCracv in the West has done the same thing.
Ii has hauled down Tie Pierce colors and flung
to the breeze the banner Of Scott. These are
signs of some significance. The immense Ger
man population Of the North West are deeply
interested in the River and Harbor question,
and Nh. Pierce, havin" uniformly opposed all
appropriations IN that direction will fail, as the
signs 20 to show, to receive their votes.
DrALoGuE.-Our correspondent ssM'' insists
that he heard two oftle ';darkies' giving utter
ance 10 the following dialogue:

given their State to the Wings by handsome
majority. The whig candidate for Governor is
elected by clear majority over the locoloco
and lrce-soiler; in two OF the Congressional dis
tricts wings nre elected, in the other no
choice, though the wing is largely ahead Of
either OF his opponents. The Legislature is
strongly wing.

INTERESTING ARTISAN WELL.-There is
an Artesan Well at the cotton factory OF
Joel Matthews, Esq, in Dallas CO., Alabama,
which is ITO feet 10 inches in depth, and
which discharges 600 gallons of water per
minute, or $4,000 gallons in twcnty-four
hours, exceeding any well in America; The
water flows out with such force that if pieces
of U stone as large as an egg, or half dollar,
are thrown in, they arc Immediately elected.
Tn The sand sand. gravel, &c, made by the aussr are
also forced out by water, which is perfectly
clear, limpid, and pleasant to the taste. The
diameter of the well is little over six inches,
and it is Mr.. Matthews intention, as soon as
he has had it tubed the entire distance now
completed, to have the boring continued to
greater depth. This will make it, it is be-
lieved, the most wonderful Artcsian well In
America.

RAILROAD BoNDs. The New York Ex-
press says:-"We hear of considerable sales
of securities at private bargains for foreign
account, including Railroad Bonds: 1t is We
ry important, however, that it should be un-
dcrstood, that the greatest discrimination is
evinced in the selection of Railroad Bonds by
foreign capitalists. None but the strictly first
class trunk roads on the great lines Of East
and West or North and South travel, where
the road is completed or nearly completed,
and where the cash subscriptions have been
sufficient to build the road up to the iron,
meet with any favor. The full appreciation
of this fact by the gcttcrs up of innumcrablc
railroad projects on second class routes over
the country, will save them much disappoint.
mcnt and an unavailing journey to this city,
Even under an active foreign demand for the
Railroad Bonds. there is no market here fol
the Bonds of Railroads built on Bonds, and
beginning and ending nowhere. 1t is better
to understand at once that Railroad
Bonds cannot be negotiated in this market
unless there are ut least cash subscriptions C.
nough to build the road up to the iron, and
not then unless the road is Il link in some one
of the great routes of travel, and not Il mere
local road between two inland towns"

For fourteen millions sterling, if anybody
will give it TO him, N. Horcar intends to lay
q railway in the bed of the sea between Eng
land and France. The road is to be inclosed
in tube similar to that which crosses the
Menai Strait if we understand the par
ticulars the tube is to be fastened down in
bed by huge iron pins, at intervals of a mile
throughout the twenty-onc miles of its sub
marine course: which pins will perform the
further service of carrying lights on their
heads at night to warn ships against anchor.
