Salt River.

Many persons may suppose the river
of this name to be mere imaginary
stream, up which defeated politicians are
sent by sort Of figure of speech. In.
deed, it is doubtful whether one in q
hundred ever thought Of inquiring into
its length, breadth depth or locality,
From the description which follows, it is
certain that the exile has not much of q
journey 10 make:
This river, (says BayOrd Taylor, }
where it debouches into the Ohio river,
is not more than sixty yards in breadth,
but very deep. 1t is never fordable, even
in the dryest season, and, being naviga.
bic for fourteen miles above, has not been
bddged at this point, We descended
its steep and difficult banks, embarked
our carriages on fiat ferry.boat, and
were conveyed across. The view, look.
ing up the river, was very beautiful
Tall sycamoros clothed the bank, drop
ping their boughs almost 10 the water,
and forming vista Of foliage through
which the stream curved out Of sight be.
tween two wooden hills, | IOngad 10 10
goNe0 SI it. While on the spot took
occasion to inquire the derivation of the
slang political phrase, "Rowed up Salt
River" and succeeded in discovering
it. Formerly there were extensive salt
works on tho river, short distance from
its mouth. The laborers employed in
them were a set of athletic, beligeren,
fellows, who soon became noted far and
wide for their achievements in the pugil.
islc line. Hence it became common
thing among the boatmen on the Chic,
when one Of their number became re-.
froctory. TO say to him, Gwen row you
up Salt River" when, oI course, the bully
saItmon would have the handling Of him.
By natural figure ofspeech, the express
sion was applied to political candidates,
first, believe, in the Presidential cam.

els for four new species Of his weapon,
namely: A small, pocket pistol, calcula-
ted 10 throw Minnie ball one hundred
yards; a cavalry pistol, with range OF
| five hundred yards; rifle suitable for
ootmen, with arrange Of one mile; and a
large gun to throw Two ounce ball or e
small shell one mile and a half, or as far
as a man or horse can be seen to ad-
vantage. With this latter weapon Mr..
S. declares lie can set on fire house or
ship al q distance Of nearly TWO miles,
and prevent the use Of field artillery, by
killing the horses before the guns are
brought within good range. This rifle,
in the hands of a good marksman, is
equal TO ten muskets, bavonets and all;
for, place a man six rods distant with a
muSket and bayonet. and before he can
bring the bayonet into use, the rifle can
be loaded and discharged ten times
They carry balls with great precision
and force. Mr.. Sharpe intends these
rifles TO become national weapon; and
should Congress, by using little liberal,
ity, purchase the patent, the country
would be possessed of a means Of war
