Mr.. EDrToR:-Some lands said to
contain valuable minerals have been
leased in n"ighborhood, and sundry pro-

made. There is much conjecture as to
what kind Of minerals are sought for;
some say gold-some iron; | hope that
the mining operations will at least brin
the gold and silver about.

Farmers are actively engaged prepar-

The corn crop may be said to be out OF

report of that speech are such as he has
heretofore ENTERTAINERS: but finding now
that he has more to hope for from the
slave power than in any other quarter,
he turns tail on his former declarations,
and pretends to the South to be Just
what they desire him to be. We say
he is double-faced and hypocritical, and
that the proof is abundant and overpow-
erlng, and We assert that the locofocos
who talk about Lying whig document"
in regard to this matter, had better give
their attention to the vlainous system
OF lying, by which Gen. Pierce is made
a pro-slavery man in the South, and an
anti-slavery man in the North--a system
similar to that which made Polk tariff
man in Pennsylvania in 1914, and a
Free Trade man at the same time, in
the South. That such system prevails
is certain-that it is a gross fraud at
tempted to be practiced is certain. Why,
life of Pierce, intended for circulation
in the North, asserts that he holds sem
timents similar to those expressed in his
New Boston speech. The reader MOTTO
ed in the extract we gave of his letter
IN answer to Mr.. De Leon, that ne said
it was "entuely unnecessary to contra

3rd. The reports Of the speech, al
though one of the papers was published
in Pierce's own town, were never con-
tradicted until he was nominated, and
it became necessary to save his credit
with the Southern democracy.
4th. AT the time he made the speech,
he was not canddate;-such were the
sentiments of his party in New Hamp-

sentiments of the Atwood men, whom he
was at that time addressing. The Ian

suited the time, the place and all the at

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7, 80


Mr.. EdNor:-The city has assumed
that monotonous appearance that usual
ly characterlzes the interim between the
adjournment of Congress and its recon-
ven'ion. Yet can by no means say it
is remarkably dull.
Since the additional wings to the
Capitol and Patent Office have been in
progress, the Utopian speculation that
the seat of Government will some day
be removed farther west has been entire.
~ exploded. The additions to the Patent
Office will be finished in a few months.
Those to the Capitol are progressing.
1t is surprising to see the number of
houses erected the past and present year.
Report says there were six hundred
built last year, and that eight hundred
will be completed the present year.
Certainly no person can hear but with
just feelings Of pride that the city to
which twenty millions of freemen look
with hope and admiration is advancing
to position of prosperity which she
should have reached twenty years ago.
hope the unconquered wings OF .Old
CeciP' will, in next November, as they
have in past Presidential contests, give
a good account of themselves. From
the far off shores of the Pacific the good
news comes upthat the "Chieftan's cause

Ophir will roll up large majority for
Old Chippewa. Iowa, that young, teem-

by no means certain, is by many set
down as sure for Scott. SPECTATOR.
EXECUTION FOR MURDER.-Samuel
Ward, a negro, was to-day executed at
New Castle, Del, September s, for the
murder Of George A. Davidson, of Del
aware city, on the 9th of May, while in
custody for the larceny of a watch.
The prisoner exhibited no symptoms
of penitence until within a few days
past. Since then he has taken part in
religious exercises and confessed his
guilt. On the gallows he said he hoped
to meet all present in Heaven, and his
last words were: "The Lord have mer-
cy on me-"
The trap fell, and in eight minutes, af-
ter few struggles, life was extinct.
Ward was single man, and aged %
years.

BOUNTY LANDS.

The following letter from the Land
Office to a gentleman in this town, which
we are permitted to copy, will throw
some light upon the disposition of land
warrants in certain contingency.
GENERAL LAND OFFICE. }
WASHINGTON, SEPTEMBER 7th '52{
SIR {: In reply to your letter of the 4th
Instant, | have to inform you that where
soldier dies possessed of Warrant, it
being in the nature of Real Estate, de.
sends to the heirs; and as to who are
the heirs must be decided by the Courts
of the State in which the parties reside.
Proof of the death and heirship must be
made before Court of competent juris-
diction, to enable the parties interested
TO dispose of the same. If any of the
heirs are minors they must act by their
guardian duly appointed by the Court
with authority to sell the specific War
rant. Under the Act 2Sth September
1850, an administI ator has no power to
sell, but under the Act 18th FEBRUARY
lS47, he can sell provided he is specially
authorised so to do by an order of Cour
for the payment ofthe debts of the soldier
contracted subsequent to the issuing of
the Warrant, in which case a schedule
OF the debts approved by the Court must
be furnished
A copy Of all the proceedings had be-
fore the Court, duly certified must ac-
company the Warrant to enable the
parties to transfer or locate the same.
Very Respy, your obi. servt.

Houses Printing telegraph.

Through the kindness of Mr.. A. b. Tai
colt, of Houses Telegraph office, we have
had an insight into one of the crowning
achievements of American ingenuity and
will try to explain it's general principles to
our readers We first notice a wheel which,
at each revolution it makes, presses black
encd tape against narrow strip of paper
and both against the edge Of another
wheel where a letter cut on it makes the pa
per take ink from the types. The press
wheel then moves the paper and tape for
ward the tenth of an mch to be ready to
print another letter, and stops when it has
made Just one revolution, which is done DIS
quick as thought.
The letter wheel has an escapement like
the ticking work of clock. The edge of
the wheel is divided into twcnty-eight spaces.
occupied by twenty-six letters, period and
blank At each tick OF the escapemcnt,
one of these spaces is turned towards the
paper, and the instant it stops ticking the
press-whecl is suffered TO print the letter at
which it stopped. The escarcmcnt is driv-
en- by sort of little steam-engine worked
by compressed air. The valves of this air.
engine are operated by an electromagnetic,
which drives the piston one way each time
it is opened, and the other each time it is
closed. Suppose then the last letter print
ed to have been A !; let the circuit close,
open, close, and so remain. These ticks are
heard 3, G and ID are turned towards the
paper, ard the instant the ticking stops, the
press-wheel prints the ID. 1t remains to
see how the ticks are counted out. This is
done by y cylinder like, that of hand organ
which opens and closes the circuit fourteen
times in each revolution.
It is stopped at the right time by a key
like a piano key, which catches pin in the
cylinder. IF you want another d as in add,
you put down the same key again, the cylin-
der makes a complete revolution, and the
same pin stops it as before. 1t has opened
and closed the circuit IA times, moved the
maenet-valve Of every machine between
here and Buffalo Ii times each way, twenty
eight ticks have been heard in each office,
each letter wheel has made an entire revolu-
tion and the instant your cylinder is stop
ped by the ID pin catching its key, each
press-whecl prints the d: and AL this is
done in the time you would take in making
the letter very carefully with pen. The
compressed air is supplied by an attendant
at each office during the operation, all turn
ing their cranks, each of which at the same
time drives three bands to turn the press
Wheel letter wheel and cylinder, whenever
the stops upon them will let them move.

THE New CarHoLIc CHURcH.-The corr
ner stone of large Catholic church was
lately laid in Newburyport, Mass, in the
presence Of two thousand people. The
bishop and more than twenty priests were
present and participated in the ceremonies.
Rev. Mr.. McLeRoy delivered an address,
in which he spoke of the great increase of
the Catholics in the United States--in forty
years, from only one bishop and forty
churches and priests, to thirty bishops and
fourteen hundred churches and priests; and
estimated that there were now one hundred
and fifty additional churches in process of
erection. New England contained Cath
olic population Of three hundred thousand,
of which sixty-fve thousand were in Boston,
and about one hundred churches and priests.

became entang!ed in qarrel with Mr. Sar-

and gives d long account of the affair in Il
letter to the President in a reply to some
complaints from the Minister. Mr.. Barney
states that he met Mr.. Sartige at the Balti-
more Club-rooms, and requested him to de-
sist from smoking, but subsequently,, being
anxious to obiterate any unfavorable inn
preston of intentional rudeness Mr. Bar
ney invited the Minister to dinner. Mr..
Sartige declined the honor, and afterwards
took occasion to express his disregard of the
pacific disposition evinced BY Mr. Barney.
He also practiced annoyances of various
kinds, which are given in detail in Mr.. Bar
ney's letter--such as lighting cigar at the
chandelier at Senator Gwin's ball, firing
guns at rats and cats on Sundays, etc Mr..
Barney having an acquaintance with Je-
rome BOnaparte, now President of the
French Senate reported this conduct of the
Minister to his Government, and at the same
time addressed a copy of the statement to
Mr.. Sartige, holding himself (Barney) ac-
countable for any personalities therein con-
tanned. Mr.. Barney ends his letter to the
President in this manner 'a
