Great Natural Phenomenon and Great
Story.

The Oswego Pallddium is responsible
for the following. OF course there can
be no doubt Of the story:
"On Wednesday yesterday orninG
the T., inhabitants Of the towns Of Boyl
and RedfeiI IN this county, weto startled
by the occurrences of Il remarkable phe-
nomenom the descent from the heavens,
of an immense metoric mass. The body
struck the earth between the hours of
and n. M, with a crash that was truly
terrific, and the shock was sensblv fell,
and people were aroused from their sleep
at distance OF five miles from the scene.
The body fell upon the farm Of Horace
Sanger, situated on the line Of Boyls.on
and RrdGeld striking in meadow and par.
italy ON the highway. 1t is estimated by
our informant to cover about half an acre
of land. The earth was torn up in q ter
#rible manner, and large fragments were
thrown distance Of iwo.thirds OF mile.
The mass is very irregular in shape, and
rises at some points to co and 80 feet IN
hight, and is supposed to be imbedded in
in the earth as many feet. The surface
generally has the appearance OF iron ore.
! The excitement occasioned by the event
among the inhabitants was intense, and
the crash is said 10 have been terrific be-
yond description. Many supposed that
the final winding up OF terrestrial aflairs
| had truly arrived.
This is certainly wonderful, il true

Indian Troubles in Texas.

From a passenger overland from San
Francisco, Tie 81. Louis Democrat learns
the following interesting intelligence:
The Indians in the Caddo have been
so Troublesome Of late, that the entire
population of Western Texas have been
aroused to the highest pitch OF excitement.
Very lately three prominent citizens re-
siding in the neghborhood OF Belknap'
were murdered by the Indians. A party
of Texans were at once organized TO pur.
sue the the savages. The Governor OF
Texas issued orders to the Sheriff OF the
county in which Bclknap is located to
arrest those who were armlng Tor we
purpose Of warning with the Indians ID
the =" Reserve" The Sheriff refused to
obey. resigned lis commission, and or
ganized an army of 5000 men TO prose-
cute the work OF extcrminating the CaddoS

ING Of the general uprising of the people,
and Of the intention to dive the CadGos
from the Reserve" called in the aid o
I the Unlcd States troops.
Major Van Doren had arrived at Jack
sonburg, town near Belknap, with three
companies of Dragons, Tor the purpoS,
Of protecting the 4" Reserve" The Tex.
ans were anxious for aD engagement witt
the United States troops before they couIC
be reinforced, so they could carry on
their designs upon the Caddos. Mr.
Smith reports that Major Van Doren !

not carry out their designs, if lie can pre-

The Two KINDS OF FUoIrvEs.-It is
somewhat strange that more attention has
not been given to the recent letter of Sec
ratnry Cass to Felix LIE Glare, Of Mem
phis, Tennessee, informing him that his
naturalization in this country will avail
him nothing. il he visits France, against
the conscription. This ia total abandon
ment of the doctrine laid down by Mr..
Marcy in the kozta case. The Admins,
tration, which has always borne Il jealous
dislike OF Marcy, has found the Marcy
theory very inconveEient in practice. -
Indeed i. is difficult 10 understand how n
party which is so strenuous for the return
OF fugitive slaves, can uphold the rights
OF nalulalized citizens who voluntarily
return TO the house of bondage. If South
Carolina may reclaim its subjects who es.
cape 10 free states, how can she deny thC
kindred despotisms of Austria and France
the less arbitrary power OF re-ensaving
their subjects when they are found upon
their soil : I, is notable how very con
servalive democracy" is becoming
under the federal leadership of Jome'
| Buchanan. 1t has abandoned all its pro
grcsSive msxims, in both its foreign snc
domestic policy. The letter of Genera
Cass Is a practical illustration Of the lOvl
felt by the Administration for the foreign
ers. Our foreign born fellow ciliL ms
cannot be made too much of so long al
The democratic leaders want their votes
but their right to protection is not to b.

holder TO his fugitive slaves.-N y
