Ton MARSHALL on j. C. BREcKIN-
RIDGE AND GARRETT DAVIS. The celebra-
ted :. Tom MARSHALL" has been edifying
the Kentucky Supreme Court with one
of his 'happiest hits. twas in case on
which the Vice President elect, Mr..
Breckenridge, and Garrett Davis, of KY,
were opposing counsel Mr. Marsiial's
clients son had been logged by gem
tleman for trespassing upon his fish pond
Major breckenridge contended that the
correction was wholesome and proper
one, such as he had been subjected to in
his juvenile days, when caught in any
mischief. Tom Marshall, in reply, said
that both gentlemen had cndeavorea to
magnify him into a great man-Ken-
tucky's greatest lawyer and orator; and
both, in their political speeches, were
in the habit of expressing great conf
dence in the sagacity and intelligence Of
the people. Now, he wished to be in
formed how it was that, with such great
superiority Of natural genius and acquire,
ments, and with the additional Advantage
of years over at least one of his adverse
ries, he remained plain Tom Marshall
hammering a miserable existence out Of
a few law suits at the bar !" while You"
pointing TO his opponent, JohnC Breck-
inridge, who were but tow-headcd
shaver, robbing birds nests and playing
marbles, when the whole broad common
wealth ofKentucky was ringing from one
end to the other with praises of the great
cloquencc, vast learning, and prodigious
ability of Tom Marshall, are now Vice
President Of the United States and
you, Carrot Davis, wanted to be, and al
most persuaded some very weak minded
people to make you, President of the
United States y Now" proceeded
Tom, :" our Vice President says he used
10 be logged in his boyish days for just
such tricks as my clients son was logged
for, and he leaves us TO infer that, so far
from suffering any damage thereby, it
was one of the causes of his progress arsl
advancement to his present high position.
X my client had only known this before,
and if he could be satisfied that his son
was spanked on the same spot that my
distinguished friend was, so far from
bringing this suit, he would have ac-
knowledged his profua1 gratitude to the
defendant for thus placing his scion in
the line Of safe precedents, and giving
him so strong claim on the Vice Presi-
dency. Doubtless the political misfor-
tunes and disasters Of my other distin-
guished friend are attributable to the fact
that, as his spanking was neglected in
boyhocd, he has to make up for it by re-
ccivng nothing but political spanks ever
since he reached MANHOOD" These pal
psble hits excited much laughter among
the lawyers and judges. in which the two
distinguished objects of Toms raillery
participated.

TnE CRor OF INDIAN CoRN.--It is
stated that recent investigations show
that the Indian corn crop Of the United
States is of more value than any other
agricultural production. not even except
ing cotton. The culture,of corn has
wonderfully increased Of late years---its
ratio OF increase being far greater than
any other product From 1880 to 1s49,
rs per census returns the increase was
fifiy-eight per cent. Wool is the next
highest, lis increase being fifty per cent. /;
cotton. twenty-four: oats. twenty, and
wheat. sixteen. The cotton crop Of
1871 WIS 927 900. 900 pounds, valued
at Sl12. 00O. 900; while the corn crop
Of 1850 was 500 900 900 bushels, which.
at the lowest possible price at which il
can be estimated, is Of far greater value
than the cotton crop.

Of the sad affair:
Mr.. Fleming, who is an elderly gen.

Crozier at his rooms at the Baldwin
House, armed each with loaded pistol,
to coerce the latter gcntlemaninto con-

brought with them.
Immediately after delivering the paper

Messrs T., or one of the brothers, said
to Mr.. c., II am now going to cowhide

knife and struck the one who held the
pistol backhanded blow which reached,

wounds in less than two seconds, and
both were bloody corpscs in three min

The sympathies Of the people are
mostly with Crosicr, who gave himself
up. He acts and looks the picture Of

said to have been engaged to the lady in
