A Hibernian, fresh from the Green

vide himself with horse and cart.
(the latter . kind he probably had
not seen before,) went to work Oh d

Being directed by the oversecr 10

deposit them in 4 gully at the side Of
the road, he forthwith loaded his cart.
drove up to the place, and had nearly
finished throwing out his load s:by
hand, when the ssboss" told him that
that was not the way-but must tilt
or dump his load all at once. ~
Paddy replied that he would know,
sbetther" next time. .
After loading again, he drove to
the side Of the chasm, but his shout

upset car, horse, and alt into the

Virginia Scenery.

There is hardlyga place on earth SO
full Of magnificent scenery as the Old
Dominion. Travel into any portion
of it, and ifene is at an gifted with a
love Of picturesque and beautiful
views he cannot but be pleased with
those to be met with almost Of every
turn. A view from many points on
the Blue Ridge will abundantly con-
firm anything said in praise Of the
Virginia mountains and their great
natural beauty. The traveller will
hardly find anywhere q piece of ssna.
lures handiwork, !" to surpass in point
ofscenes effected the great Natural
Bridge, at once the wonder Of the
world and the point Of interest with
every traveller who has b taste for the
sublime. The Peaks of Otter, Wey.
.er's Cave, and the several Va. Miner
al Springs, all or most Of which are
situated in localities where nature in
the matter Of scenery has been most
beautiful. Amy man who copies from
nature the many points of interest
withinthe Old Dominion, and presents
them in a tangible shape to the peo-
pie, deserves their thanks, and shall
be encouraged in the undertaking.
A sight of the grand achievements Of
nature, and nature's God can bu,

A correspondent Of. the New York

the garrotte, and thus describes it:
1T is the most complete thing
ever saw for choking q man. II is
attached to a piece Of timber about
three feet long, half foot wide and
two inches in thickness; one end OF
this piece of wood is so shaped as to
fit in hole in a solid flooring, and
the criminal is placed in front Of the
upright post, on a scat made some.
thing like a piano stool; his legs are
pinned to the sides of the stool, and
his arms are tied behind him; his head
is then placed between two iron
prongs, made so as to fit>on the back
Of the neck; directly under these are
two other pieces Of iron, about an
inch square, little over q foot in
length, and perfectly smooth; these
pieces pass through the post, are
moved with great rapidly and pre-
cision along the sides of the neck, by
the action of a screw which passes
through an iron plate that unites With
the ends behind the post; the screw
is turned b. an iron bar, three feet
long, that fits on the end of it; q
piece Of iron about as large ronnd as
your finger is attached to the outer
ends. This completes the apparatus;
and by turn Of the screw the side
pieces are drawn in, pressing the
front piece against the throat, SO as
to break the neck instantly. r i

The Deacon and TIC Irishman.

7 ~
A. few months ago as Deacon In
gals, of Swalnpscot, was travelling
through the western part Of the State
Of New York, he fell in with an Irish
man who had lately arrived in this
country, and who was in quest Of i
brother who had come on before him
and settled in some Of the diggings Of
that vicinity. On
Pat was q strong, athletic man, a
true Catholic, and had never seen the
interior Of a Protestant Church. II
was a pleasant Sabbath morning that
brother Ingalls, met Pat, who inquired
the road to the nearest church.
Ingalls, was good and pious man.
He told Pat he was going to church
himself, and invited his new made
acquaintance to keep him company
thither, his place Of destination being
q small Methodist meeting house
near BY. There was q great revival
there at the time, and one Of the dea-
cons (who, blythe way, was very
small in stature, } invited brother In
gals to ia Ike a seat in his pew. He
accepted the invitation, and walked
in, followed by Pat, who looked in
vain to find the altar, &c. After be
was seated he turned to brother l.,
and in whisper which could be heard
all around, inquired:
s'Sure an isn'tthis ahiritic church,
.'Hush, nsaid Ingalls,, ssif you speak
a loud word they win put you ont
.Diyil . word will i speak at al,
at all, !" replied Pat.
The meeting was opened with
prayer by the pastor. Pat. was eve
ing him very closely, when an old
gentleman who was standing in the
pew directly in front Of Pat shouted
"glory."
s'Hist-s-t, ye clear divil, = rejoined
Pat, with his loud whisper, which
was plainly heard BY che minister,
':be dacent, and don't make q black
guard Of yerself.' III
The parson grew more and more
feryent in his devotions. Presently
the deacon uttered nRaudible groan.
''Hist-s-t, ye blackguard, have re no

the same moment giving the deacon

Our readers are aware that the ed
itor of this paper has consistently af.
frmed that Willard Fillmore was
against the South. They are aware
also that he has commended that the
evidence against his soundness on the
Kansas Nebraska bill was sufficient
to satisfy all impartial minds. We
submit to day additional evidence in
the letter of Jno. p. Kennedy OF Bal
timore. Mr.. Kennedy was Sec'y Of
Navy under Fillmore, and no candid
man can refuse credence to his state
ment. Mr.. Kennedy affirms as, with
in his personal knowledge, that Mr..
Fillmore was OPPOSED to the Kan
sas bill and looks to the American
partyfor the RESTORATION of the
MissouriC Compromise line which made
Kansasa free State, and which. if re-
stored. would againexclude the South
from Kansas. We publish thewhole
Of Mr.. Kennedy's letter, italicizing
