more than doubling in the same time, having $780,,

of the property in stocks held there in 1850, was
$87 900. Indian corn, rye, oats hay, and fruit
are produced In considerable quantities, es

that there is good deal to encourage this feel.

whilst that Of j l.. Folsom, w ID. NJ How

These large estates have been made within the

ENGLAND AND FRANcE.-In the British
House of Commons recently, Lord Palmerston
made 'atement which proves that the ru
mors circulated of dissgreements between the
English and French Governments on the Eas.

Lordship said:
IL think it is sufficient TO observe that when
two or, at countries like England and France
are united in common Course of policy, &C
aiming III a common object, are guided by com.
mon interest, and inspired 10y the most perfect
and unreser, ed Confidence in each other,
loud cheers say that. when this is the
case, | am cure i, canno, erter into the mind
OF any man to suppose that any temporary for.
bearance which the Governments of two such
countries may slow, arises from want of de
termination, or that the most concliatory cours
which they can pursue can be symptom of
debility and weakness. Renewed cheers !
ttust that without any cxhnitations from my
honorable friend, or from any other quarter,
the honor and the interest of England and
France are in safe keeping, and that honor
and those interests are inseparably bound up
with the great and important interests of Eu-
rome"

A DARING LEAp.-A young man leaped
from the suspension bridge, which spans the
Cumberland river at Nashville on Saturday
last. Such instances of hardihood should be
dscontenanced The following account oil this
daring deed we copy from the Nashville BIN
ner of Monday week last;
"A large number of persons collected togeth-
er Saturday evening, to witness the leap of Mr..
Watkins from tho suspension bridge. AT the
hour appointed, he mounted the railing near
the centre of the bridge, on the lower side,
waved his hat to the crowd, and boldly made
the leap As he descended, and when about
ten or fifteen feet from the water, he thte ~
himself back, for the purpose OF striking the
water feet foremost, but little saning. But
he miscalculareJ tn distance, owing TO the il
fusion caused by the canoes in the stream
which se,m med 10 rise as he shot swiftly down
and caused him to think hismef nearer than
he really was, and therefore. or reaching the
water, his body leaned more than he intended
and he struck partially upon his back. The
Conclusion was very severe, and sent the wa
ter Il ing in every direction. On coming rc
the surlacehc attempted to swim but was too
much injured to do so. He was lifted into ca
noe, carried TO the upper landing, and thence
borne to his boarding house. He is not seri
ously hunt. and will be able, il is thought Il
be out in a few days The height of the bridge
at the centre, above the water, according to tn,

preparations had been made TO transfer the In
