Origin OF tho Oyster Placer.

The newly.discovered oyster bed in the Sound
still excites the oystermen in the most lively
manner. 1t is estimated that half million
dollars worth of the big bivalves have already
been scoOped up, and the N. Y. Times gives the
following account of the origin of the rich
placer:
Some time in the year ls4l, bed of young
OF seeding oysters was found near the mouth
of Northport hsrbor, and there was q lively
time among the oy steTmen, while the deposit
lasted, in securing them for the purpose of
transp'anting. Among others, man famlarly
known in Huntington as "Dick Scudder," was
active with his little schooner in conveying
away the oysters, his planting ground being
directly across the Sound, near NoTwslk, Conn.
In one of these excursions, while beating over
against a strong northeast wind, his craft = IS
struck by sudden flaw and oapsizsd spilling
overheard Thirty bushels, more or less, which
were carried upon deck The precise spot
where this accident occurred, nearly twenty
years ago, is now covered with a busy fleet Of
oyster boats and vessels gathering a prolific
harvest from the seed thus accidentally seat
tered.
That oyster bed is better III gold mine
The Norwalk Gazette of the 4th states that
upwards of 25O, 900 bushels Of oysters have
been gathered, and that gentleman competent
to judge gives it as his opinion that the entire
bed cannot be exhausted in five years. Some
two or three hundred vessels are engaged in
dredging, and the average earnings per man are
$40 day. A

September was cool and watery, and the

Just the weather for seeding and to iipeu the

thing is perfecting in due season, and the
general aspect # the country speaks Of
plenty. Apples, grapes, nuts. &C. are aOunu-
ant, and the corn crop has not been as goou
for years. Potatoes, Irish end sweet, are not
only plenty and cheap, but Of the very best
tuality. We do not hear potato rot mentioned
by farmers, and in size, mealmess and havor,
potatoes this seasGn aeca to have got back 10
old times Beets, onions, clbbages, squashes'
pumpkins, melons, turnips, etc, are go blg anu
cheap as to be almost drug in market. Meats
too are plenty and cheap, the choicest cuts si
sirloin beef selling from the street blocks at
from o to cents per ID and pork from to 8
cents Tbe Horn of Plenty is the Que our
farmers and gardeners now rejoice in.
October tints are the most brilliant and varie.
gated of the seasons. Already the trees Of the
forest look like bevy of bellies drest for
calico ball. The mellow, golden sunlight
falling upon the parti-OOlOred forest trees com
plotes the crowning glory of our Autumn
Our American forest trees wear richer dyed
robes than any other. In no other cline is seer
such varied shades of scarlet, crimson, yellow
and brown so say fOreiga tourists. Oul
hard maple turns scarlet in masses The ole
oak is crimson and brown. Tue hickory daTl
brown. The poplar yellow, the Peperage Grim
son and purple, and other forest shrubs ant
trees mingle their cOlors with the still linger
ing emerald until the rich hues rival the imPe
rial glories Itis well worth journey of mile
to roam in the grand old woods at this October
season,

Hook and line, bob and sinker, tail and horns
everything is gone; end the coalition mas

The Republicans Of California, and the Doug

Slavery, and who do care whether "Slavery u

By throwing them aside and planting them

The sboo,,ng an CbnrIes XII

We see by late accounts from Stockholm that
the tome of Charles XII. has been opened by
order of the present sovereign, Charles Ky
This was done on the 3lst of August, at the
request Of Professor TryxelI, the historian, for
the purpose, if possible, of setting at rest the
question as to whether or not his death might
have been due TO traitorous bullet from his
own troops, The examination of the dead
herO's remains was conducted by Professor
Rezins and Santesson and DR.. " Luudberg, in
the presence of the King, Prince Oscar, the
members Of the Privy Council, Professor Tryx,
ell, State Archiyariaus Nordstrom, and State
Antquariaus Hildebrand. The examination
entirely settled the point that pTojectile Of
considerable size had entered the head by the
left temple, and passed out through the right;
aud as the position of the King was with the
left side towards the fortress, the shot must
have come from there, and could not have been
fired from his own side IN Y Post
