The Gardiner Claim and Mr.. Corwin.

The tragIcaI close to the prosecution
against DR.. Gardiner has revived all the old
and refuted ISLANDERS against different dis
tinguished citizens in connexion with that
claim. 1t might have been supposed that
these idle tales and rumors would have been
definitely sienced by the various statements
which have been published, and particular
ly by the publication of the report of the in
vestigating committee of Congress, with the
testimony taken by that committee, which
exhibits a,full and clear history of the case,
so far as the gentlemen alluded to are con-
nected with il.

g~The Ohio Repository, at Canton, Ohio,
has completed its 39th year, and has been
published continuously all that time by the
now venerable John Saxton. This is an ex-
traordinary instance of stability of purpose,
i'll sticking to one business SO long and of
an iron constitution, that the business has
not killed the man long, long ago; and Of
industry, economy and perseverance, that he
has so long escaped bankruptcy from the
business he follows-as that is its general
tendency.

Lo the transitory darkness
From our Palace floats away;
Lo the glorious gems of Genius
Glitter in the rising day.
See again the mighty Nations
Meet and clasp each others palms,
And by Labor's glowing altar
Lift on high according psalms.
Here behold the true Evangel
Not from War may Earth increase !;
God has stamped his shining patent
Only on the brow of Peace.
Only by the arm of Labor,
Swinging to Inventions chime,
Can the Nations build their Eden
In the wilderness of Time.
Nations hear that mighty music
Rolling through the mountain bars
Planting deserts, bridging oceans,
Marrying the choral stars:
Telling that our Crystal Palace
Glorifies the joyous sod
Making Man, with Art and Nature,
Worthy of the Builder-God!
Nations! then rejoice that darkness
From our Palace floats away,
And the glorious gems of Genius
Glitter in the light of day

O-The wheat crop is said to look very
promising in the vicinity of Lafayette, Ind
The Blade says there is still prospect of
a moderate fruit crop, including all the va
rieties in this region. Even peaches, suppo-
sed to be the most sensitive of any other
kind of fruit, will, unless hereafter destroyed,
ed, be reasonably plenty, though by no means
as abundant as last year.
