Meteoric Shower.

The Columbus Statesman, in speaking
Of the meleoric shower. noticed by them
as occurring few days since, in Mus
kingum County, says:
In Morgan, Muskingum, CoshoctoE,
Morrow and Tuscarawas counties the ex
plosion was distinctly heard. Near Nc
Connellsvllle several boys observed a
huge stone descend to the earth, which
they averred looked like red ball, leav.
ing line Of smoke in its wake. A gen.
tleman walking in his field, near New
Concord, heard terrific crash like thun'
der, which lasted half minute. and then
plainly saw a large body descending
through the air in an angling direction,
with velocity apparently much greater
than it could have attained by its own mo-
mentum. Going TO the spot where il
touched the ground, he found rock,
weighing over fifty pounds embedded in
the earth depth of two feet. The phe-
nomenon seems to be unprecedented
These stones were found nearly fifty miles
apart, although the explosion was heard
at all the places mentioned from the di
rection Of New Concord. Houses were
shaken by the shock, and in one or two
instances the doors bursted open. 1t oc-
casioned great deal Of CONSERVATION in
that section OF the country, as well il
might.

IMPORTANT FAcrs ABOUT THE STAT

IMPORTANT FACTS ABOUT THE STATE
HOUSE, &c.-IDquiries are frequently
made about the cost Of the new State
House, dimensions &c, which few are
able 10 answer satisfactorily. The last re-
port Of the State House Commissioners
shows that the total cost of the building,
up 10 November 18Th. 1859, was 81 $50
log, 90. To this sum should be added
SIG, 900 appropriated last March, making
VI, ,347, lO6. 90. The building is to b.
completed by the first day Of October
next.
The State House is 304 feet long, l84
feet wide. and its height TO ihe top of th'
cupola $50 feet. Its corner stone wa'
laid on the 4lh Of July, 1888, and ovel
twenty years have been occupied in il
construction. A good deal Of the stor,
work was done by convict labor.
The work on the Artesian well will b.
resumed in about a week. When tht
contractor ceased last fall, the well haC
been carried TO depth OF 2 $40 feet

JOHN RANpoLpH's NHGRoEs.-The Cen.
tury has letter asking what became OF
the negroes freed by the will OF John Ran
dolph. The editor replies that 'rhe ne.
groes fell into neglect and were scattered
in various directions, profling little by
Northern benevolence." The Century is,
we believe correct enough in stating that
the negroes pro6ted little by Northern
Senevolence. We know of at least Two oI
them now in Xenia. One of them came
near being killed recently in a drunken
brawl; the other appears 10 lie earning a
comfortable living for himself. Ran
dolph's famous body servant, who was
with him at the time OF his death, died
some years ago in Indiana. We believe
that there are no considerable number oI
these negroes remaining together in a
body now at any point. Some are in
Canada, Snd we hear Of others at various
places in this ate.--Xsnia Ne,vs.

The New OIL Discoveries.

The Pittshurg Past of tho 11th eaye
We have been favored with small
specimen OF coal oil from the neighborhood
Of Cairo station, Richie country, Virginia,
on the Northwestern Virginia Railroad
which is Of a peculiar quality. 1t has
been tested by various chemists, and has
been found to be as it were crysa,ized
mineral oil, being without stratiic alton,
and free from any foreign substance
The tests have shown that il will yield
one hundred aud sixty-fve gallons o.
crude oil 10 the ton. After one refining
process eighty-two per cent. Of refined oi
was obtained; after second distillation
sixty one per cent. of the whole amount
was obtained in pure oil and thirty pei
cent. of lubricating oil and parafne. BY
taking a portion Of the coal and laying il
on hot stove or shovel, It's extraordinary
quality is obvious. 1t melis and runs
like wax. The vein which has been de-
veloped is upon the land Of Mr.. William
Campbell. The position Of the vein is
different from that in which coal is usual
ly found. L. is mol horizontal. but in a
cone like or vertical shape, running wide,
though unfathomable in depth, as a sha!
sunk in the valley for over thirty -four
feet still found it, and it has been traced
in its narrow, comblike shape, from botl
sides Of the hill toward the top. A com
pany who have examined the location
have purchased one hundred acres o
land containing the vein for FIVE lhousan(
FIVE hundred dollars.
"The richness OF this coal in oil renGcr
it Of great value. 1t is quite probable
that il shafts are sunk deep enough,
reservoir OF mineral oil, similar TO that il
Venango county, will be reached, from
which this vertical vein Of solid has OF
originated. Further examinations n III
vicinity are about 10 be prosecuted, whicl
will, without doubt result in The discover
OF valuable mineral doposites.

SCENE IN THE HoUsE-PUNSiNa EXTRA
oRDINARY.-Whilo the Pryor-Potter contro
versy was going on in Washington, q vote OF
tho House was called upon some minor
matter. When Mr.. Potter's name was
called, an old Dutch member from Penn.

has something to say to the point, rose in
his place and excused MIR. Potter thus -
"Mishter Sphoukcr, 1 will shust say as how

Both sides of the House and tho galleries
united in an uproarious explosion CT mrth
at tho hon. members sally of wit, and it was
only checked to be redoubled, whom, after
the name of Mr.. Pryor was called, the same
old Hans rose and said: "Vel, Misbter
Spheakor, Mishter Pryor has gone to pc ash

moments tho scene in the House was in.
describable, and for once, five pound Bowie

Terrible Tornado Two Women Killed

On Saturday n'ght last,noar Velvet Ridge,
White County, Tenn, one of the most tor
rible hail storms ever witnessed passed
through that region. The hal.stones were
of an inconsidcrable sizo. and after tho
storm had passed every indication of settled
weather appeared. About this time thoro
was torribIe roaring. whom by looking out
they saw black cloud; though snail, 1t
approached as if on.lightning wings, blow

rection that tho cloud was coming. that it
would strike his house, and attempted to
escape its fury, as it was but streak OF
somo two hundred yards in width, but in so
doing they wero caught in tho wind, and
none know tho fate of the other until aftor
tho fury of tho storm had somewhat abated,
whom Mr. Ackin found two of his daughters
all maDgled and torn. and several badly
wounded. Tho daughters of MIR. Ackin

Young Joe Smith Going to Set Up for
Himself at Council luffs-..Brigham
Young to be Deposed.


ThS following is an extract from private
letter Hrilten fow days since to ply
siciau of this city, from Nauvoo, Illinois:
Young Joseph Smith and bis mother, sor
and wife Of prophet Joseph, Of Mormon no
toriety, )atoy attended Conference Of
Mormons, held in the State of Illinois, nj
which time Joseph and his mothor were
both baptized in tho faith, and Young Joe
was ordained "Head High Priest and
Prophet" by them. Joo pretends he was
led by tho spirit of God to do 60. but am
of the opinion that tho spirit of speculation
had moro to do with il than God had, as the
family are very much in dobt, their property
being all mortgaged, and Joo is to receive
the sum OF 800 900 per year for his use.
They arc to start next fall for Council
Bluffs. whom those Mormons at Salt Lake
who wish to leave Brigham Young, can dc
so and join Joe in the Bluffs.
Josephs WHO, l suppose, would be much
opposed to it, but they have her pretty we'll
coaxed up, and she begins to think it is O
very nice thing (the $40 900 l moan and
has consented to accompany tho family.
Tho wife of Fred. (Joos brother,) sass she
will go with Fred if no goes to tho doll, bul
she is believer in tho faith, ard will make
q ,fasi Mormon. They arc keeping thing,
very quiet, but they are working hard or
wire. pulling, and will have everything ar,
ranged for an early start in tho fall. Wha
viii be the result But more anou.-!St

Cassius M. Clay.

Al tho Kentucky Republican State Con-
yention, held at Covington on tho 25tb inst. /,
the Hon. Cassius NJ Clay addressed tho
assomblago:
"Alluding to the self.s.ylod Committee Of
Vigilance in Madison County, which ho de-
nominated the Revolutionary Committee"
and which be avowed ho would continue to
do, because they are usurpiDg tho rights and
restricting tho liberties of citizens, without
warrant Of law, he proceeded to define tho
rights of citizens under the Constitution of
tho Commonwoa,h, claiming for them the
rights of speech, Of tho press, &c, and OK.
pressing generally his political views as ON
bodied in his spcocb at Frankfort, and which
he re. asserted, denying in tho course Of his
speech tho imputation that he had over said
There is no law for Slavery" but admitting
that ho had said there is no law to regulate
Slavery, because Slavery is stronger than
law, and he had denounced it because il was
tho mother of mob violence and at war with
FREQ speech.
His vindication of his policy and conduct
in relation to Foo and Hanson was in nc.
cordance with his previous statements, and
| his political sentiments wero reiterated with
his. usual bOldnoss, coupled with declare
ton that ho never would retract a word in
relation to tho alleged outrage upon Wost
and his daughter. That bo characterized
as ono of the most infamous in tho history
of this country. lIo said that West had
never certified 10 tho Madison County Com
mittco as published, that the alleged out
rago was not committed. On tho contrary
he had the certificate of West, which he
would show to any pcrson-dosiring in a
proper spirit to see it-Aattcsted by three
competent witnesses, and besides, be could
adduco the testimony Of two other witnesses
who, to satisfy themselves of tho truth OF
| tho allegation, had called upon West when
ho lay at tho point of death, and received
tho statement from his own lips. West

to his daughter. That certificate, said MIR
Clay, is now in my pocket. 1t sets forth
that while West lay upon his death. bed. his
daughter watched by his bedside with fIial
devotion. She saw horsemon leaping the
fence INTO tho yard surrounding the house
and sprang to Tho front door aud closed it.

of its delivery.

Anecdotes of Senator Wade.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Keokuk Gate City records these anecdotes
of Ben. Wade:
A characteristic story OF Bel. Wade is
just now circulating about town. There
are a good many pi;eous looking beggars
in this city. Mr.. Wade always keeps
plenty OF change in his pockets, SO that he
can satisfy their appeals handily. The
other day he was walking with Senator
Fessenden, when they were arrested by
a charitable appeal. Wade drew out a
handful ofchangc, and let the beggar take
piece. AS they passed on Fessenden
demonstrated with him on the practice oi
such liberality. saying that it encouraged
idleness. and besides. the applicants were
no, often worthy, or as destitute as they
appeared. Wade replied, pensively
"Well. / suppose they amt. But then
| don't care. D-n 'em, let 'em have q
good time"
