THE MEAsUhEs OF THE ADMINISTRATION.
The Pierce administration has been in ex-
istence nearly six months, aud we can very
easily enumrrate the measures it has adop-
ted Its first measure was TO send out the
advertisement of New York statiouer upon
the official letter envelopes, its second was to
give orders that The said advertisement should
be discontinued, It's third was to put forth a
circular prescribing what kind of coats and
breaches the U. S. Diplomatic officers should
wear at Foreign court, and its fourth was TO
send out a general order directing how the
officers of the navy should wear their boards.
These are The ADMINISTRATORS first four mea-
cures. Wonder what the next four will be.

cd US tho following interesting extract From his
JournAl"
Ma, CLEMENSl
Al your request hand you tho following OK.
tract from the journal Of my roeenttrip to Ken.
tuokyi
On our return, we visited the "Cuvo Mill"
on the Nashville Turn Pike, about three miles
south Of Bowling Grccn--O very singular and
interesting natural phenomenon,
In thu center Of beautiful, rioh and almost
level plain, IN abrupt depression or excavation
occurs, in form somewhat resembling the half
Of IN egg shell which has been divided from
end TO end,
At the top tho diameter Is about one hum
drcd and fifty yards by cighty--Ot tho upper
extremity OF the depression, aud about fifty feet
below tho surlucc of tho plain, rises an immense
body Of water, which swiftly runs of in u
smooth sheet about forty feet broad, After
running the space of ono hundred yards, tho
SlrcOm suddenly rc.cntcrs tho earth at tho foot
of huge prCoipioe ObOu, sixty feet high, from
the summit of which broad and heavy shelf o.
limestone projects which serves as n nOlura
roof for fine Touring mill, aud Wool Carding
machine, TINT have been erected there.
There seems TO be sufficient fall and volum,
Of water, TO drive much moro machinery, nm,
tho shelving rock would roof twice rs much.
Whit Is MOST astonishing isihat such slreOu
should appear and disappear so suddenly
without giving any clue 10 its origin or dcslina
tioni afford such Facilities for propcllng INA
ehinCry, and yet keep in sight only about on
hundred yards.
The above described curiosity is in Wurrcr
county, Kentucky, aud about fifty miles iron
the city of Nashville,
Respectfully,
DAVID T. MORTON.
