CAvISG OF AN ORE MrsE-Three Men Killed
The Allentown (Pa.) Democrat has the following
account of an accident, by the caving OF an ore
mine, last week, at that place: -
number of men have been for some time en-
ployed in digging at what is known as :" Guth's
Minehole," on the lands of Ballet Koch, in
South Whitehall township. On Saturday morning
last, four men were working in the mine, digging
and taking out iron ore by means of windlasSes.-
A large body of earth gave way at the side of the
mine, and burned three men beneath its huge mass
10 depth estimated at 80 or 40 feet. Their names
are Peter Wiesser, Peter Bell and Barney McElary.
The fourth man escaped. Fifty or sixty men have!
been engaged since the day of the accident in re-
moving it, and up to the present writing tMonday
uoonl no traces of them have been found.

aIn order to arrive at new indications of that

rotation of body turning axis, as had
previously used the plane Of oscillation of the
pendulum. II struck me that body turning

this principle has accordingly furnished the ad-
ditonal proof. sought the rotation.

bodies turning upon themselves, singular prop

tends to bring the axis of the body into paral-

This force of orentation manifests itself whenev-
er the axis of the turning body is maintained in
plane fixed with the earth, full liberty of direct

'fThis new property of revolving bodies gives
very marked testimony of the earth's movement,
recalling TO some extent the evolutions of the
magnetic needle. When it acts in horizontal
plane the axis of the body seeks the north, and
the apparatus acts like dip-needle; when it acts
in any vertical plane. the axis OF rotation ncnes

the terrestrial axis. the inclination needle.

STRANGE DEATn.-On Sunday evening last, says
an English paper. the congregation of theWesleyan
Chapel, Norton. near Askern, as thrown into great
excitement by the alarming and sudden demise of
Mr.. James Calvert of Heslington, near York, while
reading the beautiful parable given in the 18th
chapter of st. Luke's gospel. The congregation
was listening with the deepest attention, evidently
moved with the simple and forcible passage of
Scripture contained in the chapter in question,
when all of sudden, after uttering the Words

CAsron BEaws.-on late trip of one of the
New Orleans steamers, she crowded with
German emigrants. sAs might be expected, their
appettes for fruit and vegetables, after long sea
voyage, was most yoracious. At Salem, short
distance below this city, the boat received some
twelve or ffeeLsacks of castor beans, consigned
Mr.. Blow. The appearance of the beans, being
"good to the eye excited the craving ofthe emi-
grants. Finally, curiosity and appetite triumphed:
bag was surreptiously opened, large pan full
extracted and a huge luncheon Of soup prepared.
In short time, the passengers in the cabin and the
officers othe boats startled by the report that
the cholera, in its worst form, had broken out on
deck. On going below, they found that the castor
oil wns doing its work. The bag lay exposed and
large pot full of this rare delicacy steaming hot
on table. The thing was soon solved, and the

GREAT BRITAIN.

There appears to be some trouble between the
English Government and the French refugees in
the Isle of Jersey. In obedience to orders from
the Governor of tieisland the consiables of the
various parishes had issued orders 10 the refugees
to report themselves at his office, that register
might be taken of their residences, trades,&c. To
the summons of the constable of ST. Heller Sig
nor Angelo Gonzalez had responded, refusing to
obey the summons, thus concluding his letter: 'ls
ave are neither in Austria nor Naples, thank
God, but under flag too honorable to admit of our
vexation. The summons is illegal. Every one
setting foot British soil is regarded as an English
subject by the law. So long he respects the law

of course he takes the consequences. Such is one

lssThe directors of the well known insurance Of
fee in Moorgate street had assembled at their rooms
last week to hold an important meeting. When
the books and papers of the company were called

vault where they were kept. After an unsuccess-
full search, Mr.. Chubb the maker of the large iron
door and lock, was sent for, and was asked if he
had key that would open the lock. He replied in
the negative. He was then asked if he could pick
the lock. He again replied in the negative, and
rather indignantly withal, at the insinuation that
his celebrated locks could be picked! The direc-
tors asked what was 10 be done. Mr.. Chubb an
swered that the only method by which the papers
could be procured was to cut the coor down. The
directors would not consent to such proposition,
and Mr.. Chubb left the premises. messenger

minutes returned with the impression. Mr.. Hobbs
then selected few simple instruments, and ac-

countryn1en on large scale, By preparing an inri-

tween the New York and Erie Railroad on the
North, and the contemplated route of the Snnbury

Such is the plan of benevolence to which Ole
Bull is deyoting his time and energies with great
success. He has already commenced town, ana
established quite settlement OF Norwegian linnh-
grants. On the 9Th of September the foundation
ofthe new town, to be called Oleona, was laid
with due ceremony, Ole himself presiding and ad-
dressing in most eloquent terms his Brothers OF

almost magical. The Norwegians, with barred

The correspondent of the New York Courier

After silence was restored, Ole Bull took his vio-

Norwegians wept like children, as the strains re-
minded them Of kindred and friends far beyond the
ocean, and then the strains ofliberty would pour
forth from the enchanchanted instrument. In
