Coronation Of ths Car Of Russia.

BsO@ The coronation of the Gar Alexan
der is described as having been a very
handsome affair.
Mr. RUSSELL, the Times correspondent
.at Moscow, gives details of the imperi
.al procession to the Kremlin 1t is said
that the coronation will cost 9l 900, ,00C
sterling. The procession was a gorgeou,
display.
Moscow, Sept Ills Imperil Majesty
the Emperor Alexander H., was solemnly
crowned to-day at 70 o'clock.
The ceremony took place in the Uspens
ki Ssobor, and the act Of coronation was
performed by Archbishop Philaretes, the
Metropolitan Of Moscow
Among the special ambassadors who
were present were Earl Granville, Prince
Esterhazy, NJ. Castalborgone, and the rep
reSeutative of the SULTAN,
The proceedings had all that august ap-
pcarance which immense preparation had
designed.
An immense crowd assembled at the
Kremlin Palace and in the streets, and
very great enthusiasm was everywhere
manifested. The ringing OF bells, the
firing Of cannon, the parade Of troops, the
ceremonial Of the chnrch, the procession to
the Palace, and the decorations of the city,
rendered the whole affair most inspiriting.
The coronation was favored by beauti-
lul weather. Count OrOlf was created a
Prince, Prince WoronzofF Field Marshal,
anl Gens de Barg and Soumarokhofi
COants.

Fossil REMAINS The monster horn,

earth, while digging for salt water some
;hrec weeks since; in Polk county, has
been on exhibition in this place for the last
few days. 1t weighs some lO3 pounds,
and has the shape Of an OK horn.
A portion Of shin bone, and also a joint
Of the neck or back bone, of some very
large animal, was found near by, probably
portion of the same monster. The re-

though evidently somewhat wasted.

ANOTHER ENGLISH WRITER ConNe TO
AMEEIcA--Douglas Jerrold, one Of the
famed clique of London Punch satirists, is
coming to America to lecture. Jerrold
commenced life as sailor and after six
years salt water experience became COM
positor in London newspaper Office. His
first literary achievement was an essay on
German music, which the author, after the
manner of Benjamin Franklin, dropped
into the lions's mouth, the editors box,
where he was a printer, and two days after
he had the delight of setting up his own
article, none of the editors being aware Of
the authors name. Jcrrold next dropped
another anonymous article in the box on
Fashionable Charity, which is written with
all his peculiar vigor. This caused so great
a stir that the editor, in his notice to cor.
respondents, begged the author to call up
on him-in other words, he was requested
to Stand, aud unfold yourself" He did,
much TO tho astonshment Of the editor,
who at once recognized his talents, took
him from the case and put him to the desk.

IMPRovEMENr IN INDIA RuBBER OvER-
sHoEs.-A youtilating India Rubber over
shoe has been invented in New York. By
this improvement the unhealthiness and
unpleasantness arising from the use Of rub
bers is entirely obviated. The inner surface
Of the rubber is ribbed or corrugated, and
thus allows q circulation Of air between i
and the boot over which it IS worn. Ths
perspiration of the foot is thus allowed to
pass of, the health is promoted, and the
comfort of the uearer greatly increased

THE MANMoTH CAvE-E. Merriam is fur
nisbiug the Portsmouth Journal with Sc
ries Of interesting articles about the Nam
moth Cave Of Kentucky. lie says the last
estimate Of the Cave gave 226 avenues, 4G
domcs, 8 cataracts, and 30 pits; yet all is
uot discovered, and centuries may elap;e
before it will Lc fully explored, if such a
work is ever accomplished. The floor Of
the Cave is covered by three or four feet
of dirt, yediag about three pounds OF
nitrate of lime to the bushc, and such is
the condition Of the atmosphere Of the
Cave that the dirt, after being lixiyiated
and thrown back from the hoppers in the
Cave, re-impregnates as fully in three years
as it was before lixyiatlon, Thus the
supply is inexhaustble. Glauber aud ep-
som salts are abundant in some apartments
of the Cave. Pebbles, chalcedony, inclu'
ding goodies lined with crystals, liuts, nb
rous sulphate of lime, oolite, chalk, red and
gray ochre, caleareous spar, gypsum and
soda, are found iu the Cave.

SPREAD OF MoRMoSIsM.--Thiss singular
religious delusion is spreading with wonder
ful rapidity. The Latter Day Saints"
as they style themselves, evince great &c
tiyity in making converts to their faith.
In Great Britain and Germany, thousands,
mainly from the agricultural classes, have
Joined them. In Hamburg they have Is
sued Garman translation Of the Book Of
Mormon. In Saxony they have succeeded
in forming society Of adherents in the
city of Dresden, carefully avoiding any
collision with the police, who are ever on
the alert for new religious sects, suspecting
every new doctrine to be a mere cloak for
some political plot. The apostles seem to
have plenty of funds at their command,
apparently derived from England, with
which they assist the needy among their
proselytes. All through Germany they
are making preparations to leave for the
New Jerusalem on the Great Salt Lake,

The PANAMA MAssACRE-PropoatioR ID
Take Possession q Tic btlmas. Amos b
Corwine, Esq, who was appointed by our
government u Special Commissioner 10 in.
ycStigatc the fearful riot at Panama, last
spring, has made his report to the State
! Department, and his recommendations are
nov under consideration by the Cabinet.
The following is the substance oIAN. Cor
Mines report:
"Mr Corwinc states that the riot was
commenced by q cuored native who fired
II pistol at an American passenger who
was Intoxicated. The subsequent attack
upou the railroad depot. aud the firing
upon the passengers, was in Pursuance Of
plan deliberately formed in advance, in
which the authorities of Pnunma were nc.
lively conccrncd--the police being parties
to the plot; and that the dispute with the
passenger was merely seized upon as a pre-
text for commencing the assault.
He states also that the military auth0ri-
ties of Panama failed utterly in their duty
that they did nothing to suppress the riot;
that they conniycd at the attack Of the
policcs and mob upon the station house
aud were themselves TO very great extent
responsible for the massacre.
As the conclusion of the whole matter, Mr.
Corwine reports that the government Of
New Granada is utterly unable to maintain
hw aud order, and incompetent to the pro
lection of passengers aud property crossing
the Isthmus. lie refers to variety Cf
incidents within the past few years TO
sustain this position.
lie also recommends tie ipmeliic cceH.
patica Of tic LahmUs from ocean to ocean
by the United States, as absolutely nee, S a.
Try for the purpose Of securing safety and
tranquility to the transit, unless New Gra-
NADIA, after the proper representations shall
have been made, and the necessary demand
made upon her, in pursuance OF treaty
stpulations, can satisfy us as to her ability
and inclination to afford the proper protec-
tion, aud make speedy aud ample atone
ment for the wrongs Inflicted upon our
countrymen by the people and officials Of
the State Of Panama.
These recommendations are backed up
by strong arguments, and are accompanied
by elaborate statements Of the amount Of
business done across the lsthmus,. and OF
tho extent 10 which American lives and
property require protection.
1t is hardly probable that so extensive a
scheme Of fllibusterism as that recommend
ed BY Mr.. Corwine will be adopted by the
government, although some strong measures
to preserve American life aud property on
the Isthmus should be adopted Until we
have Pacific railroad, stretching from
ocean to ocean, the transit Of the ls;hmus
should be secured to our immense California
travel, and this can only be done by the
vigorous interposition Of our government.

She looked 30 fair, shc sang 50 well,
I could but WOO, and she was wen;

The ring was placed, the deed was done
Away we went in cbalse-and-four,
As fast as grinEing boys could fog

What loving t,is-a-tetsS to cOme
What hts-a-teics must still defer!
When Susan came to live with me,
Her mother came to live with her
With sister Belle she couldn't part,
But all my ties bad leave to jog
What dye think of that, my cat
What aye think Of that, my dog7
The mother brought pretty Poll

All day the sister strummed and sungi
The petted maid was such 4 scoldi

Her mother had such wretched health,
She sat and eroaked like any frog

The very servants crossed my wish,

Everything is duiet here. Since the

the general impression here, and | think
not without foundation, that there will be
no more fighting within the State. New

THE MESSAGE OF TIE GOVERNOR or GEORGIA,
which We publish elsewhere, will, We trust, do
the Vermonters, to whom it is addressed, some
little good. Governor Johnson is a man whose
personal standing gives Importance to what
ever he says; and his position as Governor OF
the Empire State of the South enhances that
Importance in very marked degree. Yer
mont has hitherto felt herself at liberty TO
NEEDLE in her neighbors' affairs without stint:
relying, no doubt on her iusigniGcance ia
shield her from punishment Georgia. /.
seems, has not allowed the diminutige size Of
her assailant to stay her arm; the Vermont. rs
are chastised into uotoriety.
There is one thing clear, as well from tais
message Of Governor Johnson's as from The
speech Of Governor Wise at the late bauduet
at Observation-Disclosures the North intend. the
South is ready to meet them. BE It difupion
or be il war-be it trade and friendly int !,
course, or be il absolute hostilities, across n
ort OF Chinese wall-the South is prcsarad
and viii not be taken by surprise. Let thu
Northern aboltionsts beware how they count
on the inertia Of their antagonists.
