STORY OF 4 PEBBLE.-Some SIX
ty years ago, "A young actor at Mu-
mulch so utterly failed in his perform
ance as to be pcrcmptoriIy dismissed
by the cnraged manager, whose com
cdy he had uarrcd, if not absolutely
endangered. Aud well might he be
sad, for, to add to hisdisappointmcnt,
in a wlctchcd lay his fathers corpse;
his widowed mother looked to him rs
her only stay; and a group Of little
brothers and sisters depended on him
Tor their daily bread. With indie
scribabc grief, therefore, and a few
sorry crowns in his pocket, he left
the theatre, bought food for the hun
cry family, and ordered a coffin for
the departed. That night he watched
by the side of his fathers remains /:
in the morning lie followed them to
the grave; and then, wandering on
the bank Of the neighboring river,
thought, for an instant, Of throwing
himself in; but, shuddering at the
crime to which he was tempted, he
knclt down to ask forgiveness Of God,
and at last, absolutely worn out, he
sunk down on the grass to sleep. He
awoke wish the morning sun, and
amidst the merry chipping Of birds,
he felt refreshed and thonkful that
he was still alive, and now resolved
10 return to the city. But q pcblc
caught his eye; it was white, for 1t
was chalk-stone, and on it was an
exquisite tracing Of some little crea-
ture. As he broode6 over it with
profound attention, a thought struck
him-othcrs succeeded; experiments
followed; he saw, at length, the pos
sibility OF engraving on stone, and
obtaining therefron some beautiful
impressions. Tha: young man was,
in iact, Aloise Senefelder, and that
white pcble was the cradle Of the

MONKEYS AND MEN.-The mon
keys in Exeter Change, London,
used to be confined in line of mar
row cages, each of which had pan
in the centre Of its front for the ten
ants food. CHANGING to be present
one evening at supper time, we OBJ
served that when all the monkeys
were supplied with their messes,
scarcely any one of them ate out OF
his own pan. Each thrust his arms
through the bars and robbed his right
or left hand ncighbor. But, what
what was so seized was split and lost
in the conveyance, and while one
monkey was 50 unfortunately en-
gagged in plundering, his own pan
was exposed to similar depredations.
The mingled knavery and absurdity
was shockingly human.

MExIoo.-The rebellious archbishop, who
few weeks ago attempted to overthrow Presi-
dent Comonfort's administration and the new
Mexican constitution, for which he was ar
rested, has not only submit tied and given in
his adhesion TO the new order Of things, but
has taken new course, and even outstrips
the administration in measures of reform.
This zeal is somewhat suspicious. Recently
the government revived an old law compell-
ing the priesthood to give religious ser
vice TO the poor free OF charge. To the sur
prise of everybody, the archbishop not only
approved Of it. but issued u formal letter en-
forcing its observance upon all the subordinate
Priesthood, and declaring that hereafter they
must depend entirely upon the voluntary
contributions Of the people, instead Of the
legal and compulsory dues heretofore impos-
ed through the civil authorities. This dis
solves the conrexion OF the ecclesiastical and
civil authority and opens new day for
Mexico. The dominion Of the church has
been the incubus upon her vital interests
The decree is in substance as follows:
i. 1nat you neltner reluse nor cause the
faithful to wait for the administration of the
sacraments, nor other customary offices OF
| the church.
.. That You exact nothing whatever from
those who have recourse to your ministry.
| 8. That you content yourselves with what
is voluntarily offered to you.
4. That without using other means, YOU
give the faithful manuscript copies of this
letter, certified by your signature, in order tC
make them acquainted with it.
That in the place for the law, you shall
put up copy in the frame, transcribing il
also in the book of Diocesan Acts.

of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, that yor
neither begin nor encourage any converse.

The Bank Investigation

INC banh iuNcstfSatiOn.
The Senate Committee for the investiga-
ton of the Bank charter frauds are pursuing
their enquiries at indianapolis. The gallant
Colonel of the Pavilion received his sum-
mons to attend upon the committee, and left
yesterday-as he told us-with an unbur-
thened conscience and unsullied honor to tell
all he knew of the manner in which the
branch at Evansville was disposed of. There
is nothing, no says, that need be concealed.
The State Journal gives statement of
some Of the testimony taken before the COM
mittee. Mr.. McMurry, a Representative from
Putnam county, swesrs that when the Bank
charter was on its passage in the House
previous to the Governors veto-he voted in
the negatire, but his vote was wrongfally re-
corded in the qtsrmatire. In that instance,
notwithstanding the error in the record of
his vote, the bill passed by one majority. If
the record had been corrected, there would
have been one majority against it. Mr..
McMurry was examined on Tuesday last, and
says he did not discover the error in the re-
cord of his vote, till the preceding Thurs
day, when his attention was drawn to it by
Mr.. Henry Sccrest- 1t is most remarkable
that so singular an error, in so important q
matter-one that has been the subject of an
excited discussion for year and a half
should have never been discovered by the
person most interested in it.
Mr.. Alexander F. Morrison, Of lndianap-
oils, testified, that there was deposit Of
gold made about the time of the passage Of
the Bank bill, in the Metropolitan Bank-ir
which he was at that time interested-whiel
deposit was 70 be paid when demanded il
coin. When the stock Of the new Bank wa.
to be paid, demand was made for the de
post, with statement thatit was required
to pay the first installment on stock for ii.
benefit of Thos. d. Walpole, member ofth'
Legislature from Hancock county. The de-
posit was made by John NJ. Talbot present
Postmaster of indianapolis and drawn GU
by him. The witness said II learned tina
said money was part of the money giveI
TO Thomas d. Walpole for the withdrawal 0
his opposition to the passage of the BAN
bill. | learned this from J. NJ. Talbot AM
others. The amount was said to be $1,000
DO rot think so great an amount WAS depos
tied; Gov. Willard told me that he had hearC
of the transaction. 1t was about the time c
the withdrawing of the money that TalbO
told me what it was for, and said that Wal
pole had made pretty good thing of it
that he had been well paid besides havini
stock set aside for him"
Gov. Willard was very active agent il
procuring the Bank charter, and shares
largely in the profits of the operation; but il
his estimation, before the committee said h
knew Of no improper inducements or appli
ances used TO obtain the charter. Majo
Morrison swears here pretty directly tina
Willard knew OF this bribery of Walpole.

THE ArTICA RAILROAD. - The Rockville
{ Clarke county, Republican, says that the
corps of Engineers that are now engaged in
making a survey of the proposed extension
of the Z. & C. Railroad, from Terre Haute to
Attica, arrived in that town on Thursday
last. The principal Engineer reports the
route exceedingly favorable;-and with the
exception of the Sugar Creek crossing, will
be an admirable one, and cheap. The esti-
mate is, without close calculation, that
SIS, 900 per mile except the crossing at SUI
gar Creek will build the road. The party
intend running another line back to Attiea
and when this is done, and the estimates
committed, meeting of the Directors will
be held at Terre Haute, for the purpose Of
taking the plan of consolidation in hand
This meeting will probably be held nex'
week.

NURSERY BUsINEss.-The importation of
foreign fruit trees and horticultural seeds has
been so per cent larger this year than in any
previous season. The cultivation of fruit
and new varieties of vegetables is very rap
idly increasing in this country, and the de-
mand has so much increased that the nur-
sery men, who are the principal importers,
are unable to supply the orders, they re-
ceive! The extension Of nurseries exhibits
the growth Of the business. The largest
nurseries in the United States are in the vi
cinity Of Rochester, New York, where there
are something like 10000 acres of voting
fruit trees in process of culture. A single
firm has as many as 400 acres At Syracuse
there is a nursery of 800 acres, and very
large ones are to be found in nearly all the
principal Western cities,-even in Des Moines
and Dubuque, which were recently in the
heart of the wilderness. Illinois is taking
the lead among fruit-growing States, being
convenient of access from the newly opened
Territories, and possessing a soil and climate
peculiarly iavoring large production. In
diana, too, is giving the subject much atten-
ton.

Chinese Discovery of America.

4 Chinese interpreter in San Francisco re-
veals the fact that Chinese history mentions
the discovery of the American continen,
more than 400 years ago, by Buddhist
priests, who had visited the continent and in
their writings described many of the natural
productions, particularly the remarkable
maguey tree Of Mexico. The name they
gave the continent was Fusang. The inter
prefer gives list of Indian and Chinese
common names, which have an exact cor
respondenee or are apparently derivatives
from a common root, which would indicate
a common origin of races using them.

eB The Enquirer of yesterday has for
chile article upon the necessity of more
active public spirit among our citizens, and
the absolute need that exists for some asso-
citation like board of trade to quicken and
concentrate public opinion. 1t proposes that
Oh informal preliminary meeting be called,
and the project be carried out at once; and if
the gentlemen through.laek of spirit and en-
terprise, fail to accomplish anything, the
Enquirer proposes the matter be referred to
the old ladies of the city, in whose circles we
have number OF intelligent and energetic
business women in the millinery and dry
goods line, who might take the lead in the
movement. As such reference might flush
the hardened features of old fogyism, who
would be found of as little account III the
kitchen and nursery-if sent there-as at
railroad conventions, we propose-if our
present class of established business men
neglect it-that the young men form an as
ISOLATION for promoting the business and
prosperity of the city Their prospects in
life are identified with the city, and their
chances of fortune in prospect are worth
more to them individually than the largest
estate held by those whose lease of all earth
ly things is expiring. Though they have
not dollar of tangible property, they have
vested interest in the community which en-
titles them to speak and act for it. AL
their hopes in Efe-all that boundless wealth
which the bright visions of youth make it,
own in the future, lie enveloped in the desti-
ny Of the city OF their residence. Would any
young man, just entering upon life, exchange
his prospective fortune, for any fortune al
ready here, and be content with tie bargain
Though they pay no taxes and have nC
real estate to be affected by the measure:
adopted by the city, they have property il
their labor and skill that create more every
year than the whole amount of fixed wealth
in the city, and the value of this labor anc
skill is more dependent upon the public pol
icy, than the price of lots and houses. 1t il
not only their right 20 have y voice in al
public measures, bat it is their duty to .ak'
an active part in directing the future cours'
OF events in which they have deeper inter
est than the older, though richer, member
of the community. If our city ever fulfil
its destiny it will be by the active agency o
the young men, whose fortunes are all in thu
future. The elder men whose cOunsels should
lead them, seem to have attained the object
of their ambition and are resting conten
with what they have already accomplished

Vera Cruz, with emigrants and their prop
erty, for the Eastern terminus Of the road.
A large Yankee emigration was also follow
ing in.
The road is rapidly assuming the charac-
ter OF great transit route. Forty wagons
and four hundred horses are already on the
ground, hotels are going up, and the country
in the Immediate vicinity of the road being

The Cost Of her Colonies to ENGLAND.

England has sixteen regiments OF troops
averaging 1000 men each--in her North
American colonies, which she maintains at
a cost per annum Of not less than S., COO 900.
The maintenance of the naval force for the
same colonies cost not much less than the
support of the military. If to these, be ad-
ded the expense of the ordinance department,
naval depots and dockyards, the whole cost
cannot be less than s1o,O0o,0oo. The civil
list in each colony is another heavy item.-
Each province has its governor and a numer
GUS sta Il of officials appointed and paid by
the crown. The cost of her North American
colonies to Great Britain must be as large as
the whole expenses of the United States Gov
eminent wree during the first year of John Q.
Adams admins tration. For this heavy ex
penditure she receives no revenues in return,
but looks for her remuneration to the increas-
ed commerce which the colonies secure to the
mother country, and the increased revenues
which that commerce enables the govern
ment to collect ut home. The monopoly of
the colonial trade which British merchants
formerly enjoyed, enabled them to exact
large profits from the colonists, and the gov
eminent in its turn taxed heavily the wealth
and revenues Of the merchant, ard all the
property at home, that was enhanced in val
ne by the prosperity conferred by the colonial
trade. In q discussion in Parliament some
years ago Of the advantages of the colonies to
the mother country, it was said it cost the
British Government $4,000, 900 annually to
retain the Canadas. 1t was replied that if it
did cost that sum to retain them the profits
of the commerce with the colony enabled the
English Government to collect more than
gle 900 900 of revenue at home. England
has since found that open trade with her col
onies was more profitable than the exclusive
monopolies, and she has opened their ports
to the commerce of the world, with limited
restrictions. She would find them still more
profitable customers, as independent sover-
eighties, with an unshackled trade; and it is
strange infatuation Of pride-the love OF
the vain boast that the sun never sets upon
her empire-that induces her still to cling to
the expensive jewels in her diadem represen-
ted by her colonies. If she were to emanci-
pate Canada, it would save $lS, 900, 900 an
nually to her treasury, and by the impulse
given to the prosperity of the colony she
would greatly enlarge her own commerce
with the province.
