Kelley. Tho premises include two

ent time a total resident population of
about 500. .-

mined to hold the gold claimed by the
Richmond banks as belonging to them.
The proofs seem to establish that tho

with the banks subject to the drafts of
the Confdderacy.

Pennsylvania for the relief Of the Cham

The following occurred in Newport,
r l., few days ago;
A fort soldier about two thirds
drunk, was loaiing about the wharf,
when large ewfoundland dog, no
ted for his Sagacity and good nature,
came along. and the soldier commen-
ced playing with him, which the dog
appeared to relish equally with the
other At length the contest waxed
warm, and the dog rearing upon his
hind logs, placed his fore paws upon
the breast Of his antagonist, throwing
him off his balance, and the two tell in.
to the dock together. The soldier ei-
ther could not swim at all, or was too
drunk to help himself. and was in
danger of drowning without assistance
from the by ISLANDERS. AT this juno
ture, however. he was seized by the
dog and bornc, his head above water,
TO II boat near by, into which he was
lifted by two men, who also subseq uent-
ly rescued tho dog, who had become
exhausted by his cxci tions.

TnE GAMBLING LAw.-The amend
ment to the anti gambling law, passed
by the General Assembly, enables q
party who loses money at a gaming ta-
BILE to recover it by execution on the
real estate on which the gambling is
permitted. 1t will have the effect to
compel landlords to protect themselves
in making leases, by requiring tenants
to give security that no gambling shall
be permitted on the premiscs.-- Colum-
