DR.. BEALE's ARCTIC P PANORAMA AT ARMoRY HALL.
The trumphs of this celebrated work of art through
the United States have been of the most solid charac
ter. No ephemeral brilliancy like that of the ignus
atuus but light steady and fervent like that which
emanates from the MONDAY sun, still iumes it's sue
cessfu In after years, the Arctic panorama
will be referred to among those productions
which enchanted the world and even as " distance
lends enchantment to the view" so will this brilliant
achievement of American genius be held as luminary
whose beams far outhone the dim rays of the stars of
the day. 1t is remarkable fact that during its late
triumphant career in Philadelphia, Washington,
Richmond and other Southern Cities Dr. Beale at the
urgent request of his auditors, induced to prolong
his visits beyond the specified time, whilst the attend
ance, always brilliant, steadily increased his
gagements drew to close At a first glance it may
appear strange that such constant and unvarying
success should have attended it but when we remem
ber that the Arctic regions have been attracting the
attention of the civilized world for over hundred
years. and have recently been rendered memorable by
the tragic fate of Sir John Franklin, and the heroic
exertions of our own beloved and lanented country
man, Dr. Kane, to rescue the lost navigator-not to
mention the mastery and effective style in which the
artist has displayed the excellence of the panoramic
art-its prosperous easily be accounted for
and brilliant future reasonably expected. Our
friends should not forget that it remains only two
nights longer in this city.

PRODUCTS OF THE

SOIL.
Mr.. SAMUEL ORR, has at his store pump
kin that was exhibited at the recent Gibson
county Fair at Princeton, which measures
seven and half feet in circumference and
weighs POS pounds. The Louisville Journal
was recently boasting OF having seen a sim
liar Kentucky product that weighed about
lao lbs. After reading this statement. the
Journal must yield the palm, ard admit tina
the ''Pocket" has ''some pumpkins
We have been presented with specimen
of Wyandotte corn, raised by Mr.. JACOB p.
DUNN, on his farm above the city, which has
produced the most extraordinary yield We
have ever seen reported. We submit state
ment communicated 20 us by Mr.. Dunn him
self. The corn is large white grain filed
with farina, with very little flint:
IL raised from one grain fourteen fair
sized ears Of corn; and for my own satisfac-
ton / counted the grains and found six
thousand four hundred and eighty on the
fourteen ears. i am satisfied from the ex-
pertinent i made, that with one-fourth the
seed and same attention, like amount OF
land will produce from one fourth to one
half more corn than the ordinary kind, and
that for all purposes of feeding stock or bread
will be equal to the corn usually raised"

THE MAILS.

The following from the Cincinnati Ga
zette, is but repetition of the complaints
that are uttered in every part of the West:
Failure has come to be the settled rule in
regard to the mails in general, and the Eas-
tern mails in particular. The Post Office
Department should wind up, and make an
assignment, ii it is absolutely unable to do
that part of the peoples business which it
monopolizes. Private enterprise, the efficient
Express Companies-to whose courtesy, as
well as promptitude, we are so constantly
indebted, and on which alone we now de-
pend-would serve our turn vastly better, at
as cheap a rate. The public patience is
plainly getting exhausted.

- DIR. ID. l.. Smith, who committed a
most savage murder upon pI. Blackwell, at
Cairo, in March last, has been arrested near
Bolivar, in Mississippi, and brought back to
Illinois. lie had the week previous, married
a young lady of respectable family. When
Smith saw there was no chance of escape he
took one hundred grains of morphine. Sui
phate of copper was promptly given, which
caused him to throw up the morphine.
The murderer is about thirty five years of
age, upwards of six feet in height and well
proportioned. lie is of herculean strength.
Five strong men with difficulty menacled
him.
