James L. Porter known as the Kentucky
giant, and said to be the largest man in the
world, died at his residence, Louisville,
Kentucky, on the 25th. He was forty-nine
years old, and seven feet nine inches in
height. He was formerly a cooper, and at
the time of his death kept coffee house.
At the time, says the Cincinnati Gazette,
that Charles Dickens came to this country,
there was perfect furore to see "Boz."-
As he passed through the canal at Louis
vile, he sent messenger to Mr.. Porter, Of
whose remarkable proportions he had heard,
intimating wish to see him. Mr.. Porter
replied TO the messenger that if "Mr. Dick
ems wishes to see me more than l to sec
him, he will come to me-" Mr.. Dickens
took the hint, and during the coyersation,
Porter told tho novelist that while he was
growing, his mother had to sew a foot on
bis pantalooons every night.
Mr.. Porter's coffin was nine feet one inch
in length, and two feet across tho breast

HoosAo TUNNEL.-The forces employed
on both faces of the tunnel are to be imme-
diately doubled, and hands are now paid

manned by three gangs, working night and
day. The rock on the east face is growing
moro and more piable, and progress of
forty feet per week is counted on before a
great time shall elapse. Thus far the ge-
illogical report of Dr. Hitchcock, on the
formation and peculiarities of this noun
tain, have been substantiated to the letter.

Tho Echo sIave-rrnde Cnse.

The Charleston Mercury, alluding to the
discharge Of the persons arrested and tried
for slave trading on board of the brig Echo,
remarks upon the action Of the jury:
at is most probable they have been sat
is6ed with thinking that it would not only
be inconsistent, but cruel and hypocritical
for them, as members of community
where slaves are bought and sold every day,
and are as much and as frequently articles
Of commerce as the sugar and molasses
which they produce, to pass condemnation
and verdict of guilty Of death upon men
whose only crime was that they we're going
to far country to bring in more supplies
Of these articles Of tradc-these commodi.
ties; and in this case not even to trespass
upon our soil, but to carry them to foreign
land, to Cuba, and merely to throw them
into the market of nations.
at is most probable that this was the
inducing ground Of tho verdict; and If so
every other case will echo to this. Further
prosecution is idle, expensive and vain"

DISCOVERY OF A VALUABLE LEAD MINE
IN TENNEssEE-LUCKY PURcHAsE.-A few
weeks since Prof N. G. Morse, formerly of
this city, and well known here, but now of
Louisville, KY, took as payment for debt
Of long standing, fifty acres of land in the
western part of Tennessee, at the rate of $40
per acre. Prof. NJ. made a visit to his new
ly purchased farm, and upon examination
of the soil, found that it contained large
quantities of lead. Upon second and
more thorough examination, he found that
Immediately beneath the upper crust or soil,
were immense rocks of lead ore. Several
specimens from different portions Of the farm
were brought back by Professor Morse, and
submitted to Prof. ]. Lawrence Smith, Pro-
fessor of Chemistry in the Louisville Medi-
cal College, for analysation. Professor
Smith subjected the specimens to thorough
test and found existing pure lead ore to the
value of SO per cent, and associated with
the sulphate of baryta, the latter being spec
| tally very mcrchantable article in the ives.
tern country, and equally as valuable as the
| lead ore. Prof. Smith in his certificate
adds, 81 find that this ore can be easily
worked without much outlay for furnaces
etc" Prof. Morse has since the discovery
refused 81, 900 per acre for the land, and i,
firmly of the opinion that the mine is worth
half million Of dollars. Mr.. Morse was il
this city yesterday, and effected loan o
$4,000 to build furnaces and commence
mining operations Immediately. Prof
Morse is son-in-law to Mr.. Superintendent
Withers of the Covngton and Lexington
Railway, who has in his possession severa
specimens of the lead ore above referred to
