Empress, and We are all now upon orr lots

pray to God thatmy fears for the future
of the South may never be realized but
when the right is given to the negro to

There is no doubt OF the stability Of this
Government; French troops are arriving
every week, and the nlarauding bands that
have infested the country for ages past are
fast being exterminated; no quarters are
given.
When the character of our land is well
understood, immigration will be fixed fact
under any circumstances, and the finest
lands that can now be procured at low
rates will command large prices. | have
never known the cultivation of lands to

acres in coffee with ten hands, and sold his

From the Lexington Observer aud Re
PORTER of yesterday we learu that !" Ash
land" SO long the home ofHenry Clay, has
been purchased by the trustees Of the Ken
lucky University at cost Of 100000.
Eae farm contains about 1926 acres Of the
best land in the blue grass region Of Ken

ton from its having been so long connected
with the memory of the departed states,

The Kentucky Agricultural School
which is under the patronage of the State,

|slty, will be established OF Ashland and it
is proposed to begin the improvements on
Almost extended and magnificent scale, one
that will do credit to our State, and serve
as q monument to the memory of Mr. Clay,
We understand that 9. greater portion Of
the farm will be devoted to experimental
farming, as the best and most effectual
means OF securing to the students of the
Agricultural School o thorough knowledge
Of practical farming. ,s ~
The great object Of the founders Of this
University is to furnish the young men Of
the country the most ample facilities for
obtaining thor, LII education, md in or
der to accomplish this object no effort will
be spared in obtaining the most eminent
talent in the various departments Of the
University, whether chemical, scientific or

We hope that the State Legislature will
at once make appropriations for the benefit
Of the Agricultural School" and that the
people of the Stete will Literally give the
funds necessary to erect all suitable build
ings. At least Sl,0O0,e00 should be up
piled in this way.

ceivcd have been too deeply famine

has closed the scene. Tender and deli
cate women lying in our vcrandah have
lmplorcd rice, or money to purchase
it, with cries that pierced our hearts.
Two cases Of catingshuman flesh have
been reported; i'll the one case it PROV
ed that the person was insane in the
other a child was found eating its dead
fathers flesh, which had been roasted,
and few days after the child died.
Mothers have left their children in the
maiden (dung lilly to die, or have
sold them for few picc. In one
case, an only sen was sold for pint
of milk; the mother eagerly drank it,
gave up kcr child, walked u few steps
and then dropped dead. The dying
and dead have been socn lying in our

Fossil Remains of a. Mastodon Exhunsed


About month since, during the ex.
cavations Of peat bed in Colioes, New
York, for the foundation of mill now
in course ofereclion by the Harmony
Manufacturing Company, the jaw-bone
of a mastodon was discovered about
thirty feet below the surface, of the
earth. This relic of the antedluvan
age IS OF immense proportions, ahd has
attracted the attention Of geologists and
students Of nature from all parts Of the
conntry-letters Of inquiry respectingt
and personal examinations haviup been
made by some of the most distinguished
sa0ans of the United States Bit yes.
terday even this wonderful discovery
was eclipsed by the excavation ,fpf still
further fossi!iferous remains. which COM
p'ete nearly the bones or framesork of
the mastodon Eighty five pt,below
the earth's surface, and about ifty feet
below the place of the original discovery,
the workman yesterday came upon the
remaining bones, consisting as follows !:
Two tusks backbone. the upper jaw and
Uranium, nlanber ofribs, the hip bones,
shoulder blades, and the bones of the
hind legs. The insks were each nearly
six feet long and about nine inches in
diameter. Ons of them upon exposure
to the light crumbl d TO pieces like clay,
resembling that substance in appearance
and texture.
Elle RIBS, Of which there were four.
teen found, are abo,it four feet long, the
largest being four feet nine iucires. Tie
upper jaw bone is four feet nine inches
long from the extremity ofthe lnourh to
the craninus an,f across the forehead
measures about three feet. s., h,Mvy is
it that it was with difficulty lfout Dor.
ers could move TIE. mass The sockets
IN which originally were located the
eyes of the monster are almost large
enough to admit the head of man.
The hip.bono is five feet long and weighs
one hundred pound the shoulder. blades
measure two feet nine inches. ana weigh
about fifty ponnas each. The bone of
the leg at the knre.joinS measures ,hir
teen inches in diameter The vertebrn
Of the backbone are eight inches in
diameter. The other fragments fpnnd
arc IN harmonious proportion to those
already mentioned.
Professor Marsh, Of Vale College,
was present soon after the discovery was
made and pronounced it the most re.
narkab% scientific event of,he age.
The structure will now he unlted in its
several parts by means Of wire, and Tins
n very accuraoe idea can be formed Of
the size and weight of'tho monster to
which it belonged. After separation
OF countless ages, probably, the several
parts will be reunited.
