SoRRowFUL SIGHr.-On Wednesday four
young men were placed in the criminal
dock at Cincinnai, awaiting sentence to the
Peniteutiary for life for murder in the sec
ond degree. They were Clay, young ne
gro, brought to early ruin by idleness and
dissipation; and young Ward, left an Or
phan at an early age and educated for the
prison in the streets. By them sat Cook
and Setter, young men of good parentage
and advantages, but who lived indulgently
and fashionably, and formed habits of vice
which eliminated in murder, Motions for
new trials are to be argued in all these
cases, but the Times says the probability
is they will be overruled and four convicts
sentenced to Penitentiary for life.

THE EXTRAORDINARY ELoPEMENT CASE.
We yesterday published an account of
an extraordinary elopement case, at Roch-
ester, N. Y, and the arrest of the guilty
woman and her boy -paramour. The latter
whose name is Smears, has since plead
guilty to a charge of larceny in carrying off
with him certain articles belonging 10 an
other party. The court sentenced him to
the Parliamentary for three months. The
Rochester American says:
"With regard to the elopement, Smears
alleges that Mrs. Cherry, with whom
he eloped, and who had six children and
two grand children had been teasing him
to 90 away with her for six months, and
that be finally yielded to her importuni-
ties to go to some relatives she has some
where in the East. She told him that she
could get him good situation. Mrs. Cher
ry is not behaving in way that indicates
a determination to reform, or even desire
to recover the good opinion of her hus-
band. She appears not to care for the con-
sequences to herself, but is grieving at the
strait TO which her lover has been brought.
She refuses TO eat or stir about, and de-
clares that she don't want 10 live with her
husband. The couple will probably seper.
ate as soon as some disposition can be
made of the children.

y correspondent of the Cincinnati En-
quirer, writing from jackson, Ohio, relates
the following marvellous story:
Our village is full of wonder and excite.
ment. Martin Marker, J. w. Hughs and
Washington Long, in digging grave in
the Cemetry near this village, about ten
o'clock this morning, came to large fat
stone about four feet below the surface.
which stopped their further progress until
they procured assistance, and removed the
stone from the resting place of ages, when
it was found to have closed the entrance to
a subterranean vault. All efforts thus far
e P. N.Y. to enter it with light have
proved unsuccessful on aceoant of the foul
air with which it is filed By means of
rake, human bones of gigantic size have
been raised, and small chain of silver, with
coins attached to each end. The coins,
though much defaced by time, have the ap-
pearance of those in use among the Ro-
mans in the days of Cicero Africanus,
though there were evident traces of hyero-
glyphic devices that cannt be deciphered.
The men at the cemetery have, by means
of burning straw, made light in the vault,
and though none have the courage to VEN
ture further than the entrance, it has been
discovered that there is, Immediately to the
west of the opening, chamber about ten
feet square, with steps, quite dilapidated,
down the eastetn side. Three other cham
bers branch ont of this; one to the north,
one the west and the other to the South.
We are all curious, of course, to know
when and by whom these vaults were made
and filled. Rev. Mr.. Hunter and Mr.. Am
strong, DR.. Knouf, have examined them as
we'll as they could without going down in
to them, also the bones raked out, and the
chain and coins, and all give it as their
opinion that these vaults were made by
the same people who built the mounds in
the southeastern part of the State.
The questions present themselves to eve
ry one: Who made these vaults and filed
them? Was our country once the home
of giants9

A CA1ENpAR CLocK-Tbs Register

A CALENDAR CLocK.-The Register
states that Mr.. Holly Skinner, of Huron.
has invented a Calendar Clock, which is
something new under the sun. By vsrv
simple machinery connected with the clock
work, the day of the week aud month are
indicated, the date being instantly changed
at midnight. 1t thus becomes perpetual
almanac, varying to suit the several months
and lesp year. Tho machinery can be ap-
piled to any common clock, and consists
of three wheels, a bar and catch or
two. The Register says it is as simple Of
construction as its operation is ingenious.

ONO FENIrENrIARI.-Ten prisoners
from Hamilton county were consigned TO
the Penitentiary on Saturday, two of them
murderers, sentenced for life. The State
Journal says:
There are now seven hundred and five
convicts in the penitentiary, and the War
den informs us, that, without doubt, when
the spring terms of Courts close, the uum-
Der will be increased at least fifty, and be-
fore the end of 1859, there will be eight
hundred. This will necessitate an enlarge
ment of the old, or the construction Of q
new prison.

From the Troy Times, Feb. 18th
Balloon Voyage to EurOPe..Ae.
rial Shin

Mr.. John La Mountain is busily engaged
in this city in making preparations for the
construction of the balloon with which he
hopes to be able to cross the Atlantic du-
ring the coming season. For two weeks,
one OF butchers patent machines, at the
rope and cordage works, has been used in
making the twine to be used for the net of
the ship. This is about one tenth of an
inch in thickness, and composed of thirty
six strands of the very best Holland linen,
carefully selected from the stock at the
Mechanicville thread mills. 1t was neces-
sary to guage the machine and drills in or
der to turn out cord of the required size
That produced is remarkably beautiful in
its make-as smooth and even as woven
silk. Its strength may be inferred from the
fact that it will resist steady strain of
800 pounds.
The silk for the balloon has been select
ed from recent importation from the East
Indies at New York. 1t is remarkable for
the strength and firmness of its fibre, while
at the same time it is as light as any in the
market. The balloon is to be constructed
at Lancaster, Pa, upon the frames and with
the apparatus used by Mr.. Wise, the faith
er of erouautics, for the purpose. 1t will
probably be completed early in May. The
first trial trip will be made from Chicago
during the latter part of that month-and
Mr.. La. Mountain designs crossing one of
the lakes and travelling at least one thous-
and miles over the continent.
Whatever may be thought of the practi.
cability of bis scheme, he has entered into
it with hearty earnestEess which proves
that he believes its accomplishment practi-
cable; and is prepared to risk everything
in the venture, with no possible hope of
making anything unless he succeeds. In
this Nineteenth century it will not do to
laugh at any proposition, however absurd
it may seem. We can, therefore, only
wait; and We shall see what we shall see.
If Mr.. La Mountain should cross the At
lantic in an arial ship, his name will, of
course, go down to posterity with those of
the most famous men; if he does not, he
will it is to be feared, share the fate of
those who ego down to the sea in Ships.

sad affair occurred at Lebanon, KY, on the
22d instant. Miss Susan Shuck, daughter
of John Shuck, Esq, one of the most promi.
nent lawyers of Kentucky, was about to be
married to Mr.. Thomas, young lawyer of
fine promise. She was arraved for the

The PIKE OPERA HOUSE FErE.-The
opening of the Cincinnati Opera House by
grand ball was the event of the 22d in
the Queen City. 1t was $40 ticket af-
fair, and the number present was estimated
at about 1000. Promenades, dancing and
supper were the order of the Inauguration,
and the display of beauty, dress, jewelry
and fashion were dazzling. The Gazetfs
report says" "There is distinguished
Clergyman Of the city, leading off in the
first dance, and there is no better dancer
in the city than he," and adds:
There were good many people present
whom one does not often see at "Bals."
There were some unexpected meetings of
teachers in Mission Sunday Schools, aad
of ladies and gentlemen prominent in our
religious and benevolent societies. Old
citizens, pioneers, the dignitaries of our
city, the lovers of the art and the fashion
able. And all were delighted and happy.

@The Wheeling papers tell a storl

HThe Wheeling papers tell a story
of a young German woman, who has lived
in that city during the past year, in such
retired and mysterious way as to excite more
than the usual amount of impertinent curl
osity. Her life was blameless, however,
and she won the regard of all who made
her acquaintance. A few days since she
received letter and left very suddenly
Nothing was heard from her, and fear was
beginning to find its way into the hearts
of some of her neighbors, that she had met
with an accident or something worse, when
the Cincinnati mail brought letter TO a
lady with whom she had been particularly
intimate, which disclosed the secret of her
wishing TO preserve the incognto she had
kept so inviolate.
The letter stated that she had just join
ed her husband in Cincinnati, who during
the past two years had been serving out
term of Imprisonment in the Indiana peni-
tentiary, to which institution he had been
sent for five years, on an indictment for for
gerry, but about two years after his incar-
eeration, circumstances transpired which
made it apparent that he was innocent OF
the charge, and on the I'd ult., he was re-
leased. Previous to bis arrest he had been
living with his family at Napoleon Sta
tion on the Michigan Southern and North
ern Indiana railroad, and soon after his i'm
prisonment, his wife came to this city and
lived incog., awaiting his release, which
transpired so happily and unexpectedly
She requested her friend to have her house,
hold goods shipped to Cincinnati, where
this family, separated under such circum-
stances, are once more happily united.
