A Panther Story.

The last Record of The Times gives the fol-
lowing story Of The presence of one these
animals in our vicinity -
About three weeks ago two little boys
aged eight and six years, sons of Jesse s.
Dodson. who lives in Fairmount township,
in this county, some three or four miles
from the Long Pond and on its outlet, went
ior water. When they came within rod
or two of the spring panther stood by it
They al first supposed 1t 10 be deer, and
thinking i: strange that i, did not run, went
on TO the spring, lhe Oldest passing within
FIVE or six feet OF the animal, which he by
this time discovered was not deer. 1t
made a spring passing close by him, he
said, che thought it was going 10 jump right
on him." lie then dipped up his wafer
and they started for :he house. The panther
followed them alternately before and be-
hind them, but always within a short dis
tance, the dog "a middle sized one) keeping
between him aud the boys and maintain
ing threatening posture for about sixty
rods, when coming within about twenty
rods and in sight o. lhe house, the whisker-
ed gentleman left them to make the remain.
der of the journey with The dog only for an
escort. On arriving at the honse the liule
fellows told their father what they had seen
mo went on the ground and found their
story corrobora ted by the track of fol
grown panther. 1t is said that large pan
theirs track has been seen about the Long
Pond. II has been several years since one
of these relics of the wild woods has been
seen in that vicinity.

A DELIGH TFuL LEGEND-There is a char
ming tradition connected with the site upon
which The Temple of Solomon was erected.
1t is said 10 have been occupied in common
BY two brothers, one of whom had family;
the o'her had none On the spot was sowu
field of wheat Ou the evening succeed
ing the harvest, the wheat having been
gathered in separate shocks, the elder bIoih-
er said unto his wife. 'My younger broth
er is unable 10 bear the burden and heat of
the day will arise, take off my shocks,
ard PLACE with his without his knowledge" ("
The younger brother, being actuated by the
same benevolent motives, said within nim-
self, "My elder brother has family, and |
have none will attribute this 10 their sup
port; ! will arise, take off my shocks. and
place with his, without his knowledge -
Judge of their mutual as,onishment, when
on the following morning, they found their
respective shocks undiminished. This course
of events iranspired for several nights,
stand guard and solve the myslery. They
did so, when on the following night, they
met each other half way between their re-
speciive shocks, with their arms fnl Upon
ground hallowed with such associations as
this was The Temple OF Solomon erected
so spacious and magni6ceni-lhe wonder
aud admiration of the world. Alas in
these days, how many would sooner steal

Georgia, General Lane and others In re.
sponse to call, Governor Stevens intro
duced General Lane-new Senator elect
from the State OF Oregon-to the people,
He made brief speech, in which he said
that bulwark had been raised that day on
the shores of the Pacific against foreign in
vaders, and fresh assurance given of the
perpetuity of the Union.
While Governor Lane was in Oregon, he
was named for the Presidency by the Con.
venlion assembled al Indianapolis 10 revise
the State Constitution of Indiana. The
Democratic State Convention, which met
February cath 1852, formally presented his
claims for the Chief Magistracy, pledging
the vote of the State to him. On his arri-
val in Indiana from Oregon, he had pub
lie reception, at which, in the course OF an
address of welcome, Governor Wright thus
briefly viewed the career of the guest Of
the day
"He has been the ar,iicer of his own
fortunes; and, in his progress from the far
mer on the banks of the Ohio and the COM
mandment of fiat boat, TO posts of honora-
BILE distinction-to seat in the House OF
Representatives and in the Senate of lndi-
ana-to the command of a brigade upon
the fields OF Buena Vista, Huaman,la and
Atixco-to the Governorship of Oregon land
thence 10 seat in Congress-he has dis
played the same high characteristics, per-
severance, and energy. The annals o. our
country present no parallel tor these facts.
He entered the army volunteer IN the
ranks, looking forward only to the career OF
a common soldier. He left a major gener-
al, closing his ardent and brilliant services
in that memorable campaign by fighting It's
last battle aud capturing It's last enemy"

The captain, thinking ii not a. all likely
that the attempt 10 call the watch before
