of the burning of slave. who lately

The Judge having granted motion for

says:
After this confession was made, the match
was applied, and in few moments the dc.
vouring flames were ei1veloping the doomed
negro; his fearful cries rcsounded through
the air while the surrounding negroes WHO
witnessed his dreadful agony and horrible
contortions, sent up an involuntary howl of
horror. His suferings, though excrtiSiatihg;
were short; i'll few minutes the flames
had enveloped him entirely, revealing now
and then, as they fitfully swayed; hitler and

a demon of the fire, grikhHifiri'g as in hellish
triumph at his tormentors. Soon all was
over, nothing was left but the burning fiesli
and charfed skeleton Of this human devil,
who could thus deliberately perpetrate SO
foul crime. The horrid outrage was fear
fully avenged, and though the heavens were
reeking with the stencil of burning; flesh;
yet justice was satisfied; the law of retalia-
ton was inflicted as nearly as it could be,

Rescue Grass and Oregon Pea.

A clever and interesting writer in the
June number Of the Farmer and Planter,
takes down Shanghai chickens and new
tangled agricultural huhibigs generally, in
splendid style. In reference to the above
he hits our views precisely, as follows -
Chester Standard.
"Next comes the famous Rescue Grass;
rich in every material to crafty the appe-
tite of the most fiction loving. No noun
tebank panacea was ever ushered into the
world with more unreal claims. Even our
friend, Broomsedge, sahxed his skeptic:ism,
and sowcd a peck Of Ne preciosts Rescue !;
that wonderful Rescue, that neither heat or
cold, wet or dry, poverty or richness Of soil,
or any other thing, could check its RAM
pant growth. Fat chickens, fat pigs, fat
horses, aud of necessity fat folks, and with
all this fatness, the soil too, was promised
to be enriched by this wholesale fattening
process. We too, sowed half bushel of
seed. All, reader! could you see it now,
this veritaLle twenty-sixth of April, Ammo
Domini, 1855, in all its "pomp and cir
cumstances" of glorious humbug, it would
be a comment on the. humbugability of
poor Abbevillc.
"Next comes the Oregon Pea. A dol
lar pint! Spirit of IIerbcmont, shield
lis! Little did you dream when you first
brought the pea from La Belle, France,
that it was to play such a conspicuous
part in humbugging tile agricultural
world"

"The Price of Liberty is Eternal vigilance.'


1t is known as Cornplanter's Rock."' The
old Indian gave me the story with sad
and detected countenance, in broken Eng
lish.
Alas! what change! Where then the
shceny tide of the beauteous Allegheny
parted only to the swift-sSimming birchen
canoe, and echoed to the wild voices that
came out of the dense, dark forest, now is
heard the shrill whistle of the steam pipe
and the rushing of the mighty steamer.
Where the tawny savage then reclincd upon
the shady banks from his pursuit of the
deer, the panther and the bear, or rested
from the war-path, is now the scene of life
and activity.
The tall old forest has rcceded before the
advance Of civilization, and given place to
farms, beautiful villas an! bustling towns.
The. Indian, too, has pasted away but a
few, and they but miserable. decaying relics
Of what they once were, sro now OCCASION
ally seen, the descendants of the proud race
that once could call these hills, and groves,
and rivers all their own. Alas! in the Ian
guage Of the poet:
"Chieftains and their tribes have perished,
Like the thickets where they grew"

inss Of Polygamy.
There is woman now in st. Louis who
has been made victim of Mormonism, to
whom VIC desire to invite the attention, and
in behalf of whom we wish to enlist the
sympathy of the philanthropic. Her namc
is Mrs. Parsons. Ten years ago she was
living happily with her husband, who was
a clever shoemaker, in London, comfortable
in circumstances, and blessed With dones-
tic peace. About that time the husband
became convert to Mormonism, under the
influence of the preaching of the proselytes
of the Church of Latter Day Saints, who
were strolling over England and Wales.
Of course his wife received and embraced
the faith, too-the abominable doctrine of
polygamy being sturdily denied by those
who pretended to be tile orthodox expound-
ers Of the creed. Her husband abandoned
his trade and turned preacher, travelling
over France and England to disseminate
the Mormon doctrines. Of course the wife
was left pretty much to shift for herself and
her young children. Things went on till
she come to America, about year ago, on
her way to Utah, with company of Nor
mon emigrants. Her husband remained in
Europe to supcrintend the embarkation Of
other efnigrauts, and promised to meet her
in St. Louis. When tile poor woman ar
rived here, she found. no provision made for
her support, and no arrangements for her.
