ISprAr RxLrcs.-We were shown
this morning, BY our young friend,
Lyman Banks, an Indian axe (stone)
weighing eleven pounds. II is the
largest relic Of the kind We ever saw,
II was found by some boys near the
mouth Of Pappoose creek.
John Hayes, Esq, found a few days
ago a greater curiosity than the above,
in the shape Of a pot made Of music
shells. The pot will hold about pint
of water, and has two handles. How
the shells were cemented together is
difficult now to determine. They seem
t. have been pounded into fine parti-
cles and mixed with some adhesive
substance, then moulded in their pres
ent form and subjected to a thorough
hardening by fire. The pot contained
a pearly white muscle shell. evidently
used as spoon. The whole was prob
ably made to contain the food de-
posite d in the grave for some departed
brave on his supposed journey through
the spirit land. Other relics of this
nature have been found in the same
locality where this was discovered, but
it is the only one taken out whole.
The pot was found on the bluff above
Mad creek, which seems to have been
once used as burying place by the
aborigines.-Muscdtine Journal.

In his speech here on Monday even
ing last, he remarked among many re-
marksble remarks a. follows
$50 help me God, rather shall my
right arm wither at my body, than ]

turn Of fugitive slave"
In 1850 Henry Clay said in bis
speech which continued two days =
"Where is the difference between re-
ceiving and harboriug q known fugi-
tive slave, and going to the plantations
of his master and stealing him away
"Im my humble opinion, it is re-
quirement by the Constitution OF the
United States but which extends to
every State in the Union. And l 60
one step further. 1t extends to every
man in the Union, and devolves up
on him the obligation to assist in the
recovery Of a fugitive slave, from la
Dor, who takes refuge or escaped into
one of the free States.
These were the words of the sage o.
Ashland, when standing upon the brink
of eternity and when in a period that
he could expect no earthly honor
nothing but the love or condemnation
Of his countrymen. What think you

preme Court, addressed the people Of
Clinton on Wednesday evening last.

of a gentlemap's discussing calmly and
dispassionately, questions of public
policy without descending to black.

ponent.
His address was logical and argu-
mentative, without appeals to the pas
sions and prejudices Of his hearers, and
without any attempt at the spread
eagle eloquence or clownish buffoon-
cry which is so often resorted to by
stump speakers. He maintained his
own self-respect, and VIC are confident
that he won the respect of all who
heard him, whether friends or oppo'

q. w. X endallss Farm .

A Texas correspondent of the New
buryport Herald, who has recently
visited the celebrated farm of Mr.. Ken.
dali, former editor of the New Orleans
Picayune, historian OF the Santa Fe
expedition, ETC., writes as follows:
The evening of the second day ont
we arrived at Kenaall's rancho. l
found it site for fine estate, when
developed and improved symmetri-
cal valley, Of some hundreds of acres,
with brook running through it, in
closed on the four sides by ranges of
low hills. Its location is thirty -four
miles due west from New Braunfels,
and thirty from his own residence.
Here, in charge Of an intelligent Scotch
shepherd and subject to his own
weekly inspection, are his great flocks,
amounting in the aggregate to nearly
or quite 5000 sheep and lambs. He
sheared this year $3.50 sheep, yield
ing, as he told me, $4,000 pounds of
wool, for which he would realize thirty
cents per pound. This years increase
of his flock was 800 lambs, worth, as
they are three fourths or en-eighths
Merino blood, s. per head a week old.
This, you will see, yields the snug little
income of about $1,000, all which is
deserved by Mr.. Kendall for his per
severance in the business, conducted
for time under difficulties that would
have been discouraging to any man of
less energy of character. His sheep,
under his present system, arc easily
managed, but require constant care.
They are divided into four flocks, each
with his own herder and shepherd.
The dogs are turned out at sunrise, to
range the hill sides and return at
evening. 1t is pleasant to see them
come in about the sunset hour-a
cloud of dust at four different points OF
the horizon, the plaintive bleating of
the sheep and lambs growing louder as
they approach then the sheep run
ming hither and thither; the weary
shepherds with their broad-brim hats,
and pistols in their belts and the
active and baving dogs.

AGREEING WITH HER.--A clergyman
who was bit Of humorist, once took
tea with lady of his parish, who pri-
ded herself much upon her nice bread,
and was also addicted to the common
trick Of depreciating her viands to her
guest.
AS she passed the nice warm biscuit
to the reverend gentleman, she said :
They are not very good; am al
most ashamed to offer them
The minister took one, locked at it
rather obviously, and replied:
They are not so good as they
might be.'
The plate was instantly withdrawn,
and with heightened color, the lady
exclaimed
They are good enough for you :"
Nothing further vas said about the
biscuit.

COMING TO CLOSE QUARTERS.
from tie Albany Standard, 18th. ]

[Trom tie Albany Standard, 17th.l
We obtain from a person posted in
in the matter the following history Of
the Wise letter: 1t was sent from Gov.
Wise to Mr.. Donnelly Of New York.
Mr.. Donnelly gave it to Mr.. Cassidy,
of The Atlas d. argus, who promised
to keep it from getting into the public
papers. Mr.. Cassidy lent it to Peter
Cagger. Mr.. Cagger read it and sent
for Mr.. Lavine, one of the editors OF
The Statesman and Albany reporter
for The New York Herald. Mr..
Lavine read letter. Mr.. Lavine copied
letter. Mr.. Lavine sent letter to New
York Herald. New York Herald
published it. This, we understand, is
a brief, concise and truthful history of
the Wise letter. If any error has
been committed we shall be happy to
correct the same.
As postscript to all tLis, we would
mention that, since the disreputable
appearance of the Wise letter, Mr..
Lavine has ceased to be connected with
THE Statesman. We understand that
Cagger, Cassidy Il Co. have secured
him a position in The Atias d. argus
office. Mr.. Lavine is a man Of talent
and energy, but lacks integrity
Lavine is " tricky" and would as soon
sell friend as serve him, provided it
would "pay" equally well. HE habits

(" q good time of it" We shall be
much surprised if Lavine does not sue
