THE WEYMOUTH CAvE.-A correspondent of the New York Eoening Garette has been to the great Mammouth Gave of Kentucky, and says of it,
 The Cave was discovered by accident 1902 by a man wh..4e hunting, and ten years af terward was worked for the attainment of saltpetre by a company who at length abandoned 1t to curiosity seekers. The prop erty originally belonged to Dr, Croghan, who died some years since and left it to the heirs of the (GeneraD Jessup estate. It is very narrowly and meanly managed, the sole object of the present and past owners being to make money out of 1t. Hence visitors are detained longer than they need be, and generally depart so dis gusted with their treatment that they never return. The heirs will not lease the hotel longer than five years, and consequently no landlord will make any Improvements up- on 1t or the grounds
 1 If branch railway were complete to the cave and a first class public house erected, there would be twelve or fifteen hundred | boarders there every season, where now there are not over three or five hundred at any one time The owners of the property are very much afraid some one will make observations of the cave and find new en- trance; and therefore every explorer IS pro- hibited from using compass, or from learn the bearings or direction of the great nat ural tunnel. They have lately purchased seventeen hundred additional acres of land in the vicinity of the cave to prevent any one else from getting possession of it and possibly reaching the wonder by an un. known channel. They realize about fifteen l thousand. dollars to twenty thousand dol lars from the cave fees, and anathema! from the travelling public without number

Punishment of Treason

It seems to us that in the strength of their just hatred against treason, many of our citizens are inclined to change the views which, mp to the breaking out of the late civil war, they held regarding the pun ishment due unsuccessful insurrectionists
 It must be promised that every estab- lished government will always consider eve- ry rebellion against its authority unjus tifable. Should they, therefore, upon the suppression of such rebellion, proceed at once to execute its leaders? We Ameri- cans have held that, in most cases, such a course is not even justifable-far less ex- pedient. We have termed the conduct of most European governments in such cases as outrageously harsh, and our reason has been that no individual can be held justly responsible for great popular uprisings. When, under the feudal system, an army of retainers followed Warwick against the House of York or the House of Lan- caster, indifferently-the "King- g-makers" were justly held responsible. The time is gone by, however, when few individuals raise great rebellions, especially in the United States.
 The Democracy have, indeed, always
 held that the war was the work of a few
 disappointed politicians, and were that
 view correct, those politicians would cer.
 tainly deserve hanging. We of the Union
 party profess no such belief We attrib.
 ute the war to Slavery. The millions who
 were educated under, and directly or indi
 rectly interested in that system, acted 2 no more selfshly than human weakness:
 would have led us to act had we been simi , larly educated and interested. For fiv years we have uniformly maintained tha
 Slavery was the responsible cause of tn rebellion, and have refused to make an, terms with it. Shareholders we have treat ed as belligerents and prisoners of wal but to Slavery we have given no quarter and finally, in establishing universal sui . frage, we have driven the last nail in it , coffin.
 f Such course has always seemed to U B most wise and consistent, and implacabl - as is our hatred towards Slavery and all tn : noxious political ideas which are tn 7 outgrowth of Slavery, we have no desire . see the punishment of men who have SUI

LITCHFIEID

Capt. Salmon Buel, as anticipated. at tended the Congregational Church in this village, on Sunday afternoon, the 9th inst. that being his one hundredth birthday He was accompanied by his brother, James Buel, Esq. of Pittsfeld, who is S4 years old, and several other relatives On en- tering the church, the congregation arose and remained standing until the venerable centennarian was conducted to his seat. The choir sung Old Hundred to appropri- ate words, and the Rev. Mr. Clark made a short address, relating some of the inter- esting incidents of the life of our aged neighbor. Capt. Buel was the son of Sal mon Buel, who resided on the spot now occupied by Dr. Buel's Retreat. His grand when about six years old, with his father, Deacon John Buel, the first settler, and the progenitor of all the Buels of Litchfeld. and of a very considerable portion of the population of the town. Capt. Buel made profession of religion in December. 1907, with some twenty-five others, among whom were the late Judge Tappi1g Reeve, Dea Thomas Trowbridge, Iemuel Wooster and Samuel B. Plumb and of the 159 who united with this church in 1907 and 1908, as fruits of the great revival of those years, only three are now upon the church rolls, and only one of them is able to habitually worship with the congregation. Capt. Bu- el enjoys remarkably good health, and is able to perform much labor, having chop ped all the wood for his family during the last few years. He has been strict temperance man during his entire life, and it is said that when youth, and his con- panions indulged freely in the use of in- toxicating drinks, he uniformly took noth- ing but cold water; and on one occasion, after being solicited to drink and refusing, an old friend patted him on the shoulder and said, ''You are right, boy-stick to colo water, and you will live to be an hun dred years old'
 After the services at the Church, Capt.
 Buel and his friends were invited to the
 house Of his neice, Mrs. Beers, where they spent delightful hour or two, and he re- ! turned to his home much gratifed by the
 exercises of the day, and the cordial greet.
 ings which he had received from his nu.
 merous friends. On Monday, he was wis.
 tied by his relatives and others, who enjoy.
 ed a picnic gathering, and indulged in
 pleasing "reminiscences and social cheer

CoNNEAUT, Ohio, June 3, 1867.

MIR. EDIToR:-I have been waiting a long time to announce to you that it ap- peared to be about ready to stop raini1 &, and during the past week it has rained on- ly three days, so I think the shower is about over. It has rained in this country only thirty-eight days out of forty-four, ending with June lst, and as consequence all farming matters are extremely back ward. But very little corn has been plant ed, most of the oats were sown last week, many potatoes are yet to be planted. Grass is looking finely, and the wheat crop prom ises well. This latter fact, will, hope, be duly appreciated by the few consumers of bread in the land.
 l have been journeying somewhat in the Oil Region, and for the benefit of your oil stockholding readers, will say that every thing is very dull there. Many of the stores are being operated by the Sheriff Few wells are doing anything. Oil is very plenty, and is worth $l.90 per barrel at the well. Those who are able, are building huge iron tanks to store the oil in. Seve- ral are being built along Oil Creek-some of them holding twenty-two thousand bar rels. The price of building is about one dollar per barrel. They are made of boil CT iron double -riveted, and look like huge gasometers. The oil can be kept in these till it is worth something. Last fall, it was worth about four dollars, and will be again, probably, before next winter.
 In other portions of Pennsylvania, where the numbering interest prevails, business is quite brisk. The rivers have been SO high that the lumber is all ratted to mark ct, and much of it sold at fair prices, which makes money plenty.
 l have been the past week over Ashtabu- Ia County, Ohio where the cheese and da;- rying business predominates, and found it very dull. Cheese is now just beginning to sell at about ten cents pound, and but ter at twenty, which in comparison with the prices in war times, is very low, and consequently, people are feeling very poor, and not disposed to spend any money for luxuries, though as 8 general thing, farn1- CTS are always disposed to grumble at something-prices, or taxes, or weather, for instance
 There is very little romance now about travelling in wagon over the country, in such weather The roads are very muddy, periling your life constantly, and obliging you to drive carefully, while constant rain soaks ones bright fancies completely out. The finest scenery enveloped in fog, or seen through falling rain-drops, fails to give intense satisfaction to your prosaic
