The Seal of Thomas Paine.

From the Columbus Ga san.
Yesterday we saw s seal which is 30
historic in character that we strive to at
tempt Some mention Of it. II is the seal
OF Thonas Faiae, the author OF the Age
~ Reason" and Common sense - the
Eugiishmsn who, ia the early struggle
of our Republic, threw bis weight and
influence for separation from British
dominion; aiteTWaTd5, in the French
Revolution, he vas active there; Hrs-
bubliCs against mOnaTehies U-but his
history is known.
The seal to which we Rllude is the
property OF Col. VIM. :. Morton, cf New
Orleans, as the oldest surviving son Of
the late Walter Morton, OF Scotland, who
lett, among other surviving children,
two gentlemen, Mr. George 3. ami
Mr.. Alex. &. Morton, who are Justly
ranked amongst our most esteemed citi-
zens
The stone is agate, bcuad with t,cld-
Lt represents an altar, with burning
Fl ame above the altar are two hands
Gro ,sed ia embrace through th6se hands
the ancient Javelias pierce; above the
whole sre two fiery serpents rampant.
90 the body of the altar is Tom Psine's
we'll known mottO-the one which, when
be thundeTed il in the French Assembly
Of revolutionists, sent him TO the Bastile:
La Fol PNblic-Pablie Faith. Many ef-
forts have been made for years, by the
British Museum, and other associations,
to procure this relic, but the Mortops
bold ii as an heirloom, and have stead
lly refused TO part with 1t. To them it is
almost, as with Douglas, "the heart of
Rruoe.u The executors nominated by
Thomas Paine, and who executed his
viii, were Walter Morton, of Glasgow,
Scotland, and Thomas Adds Emmet, of
Dublin, Ireland. Mr.. Emmet was the
uncle Of the wOrld-renoWned Robert
Emmet, who fell martyr to English
vengeance because of the "Irish Rebel
lion OF '9S." Thomas Adds Emmet,
like Mr.. Morton, came to this country
and died here. An elegant monument
honors his memory in the city of New
York. We learn that Alex. G. Morton,
Z o., has for q long time had In prepar.
alton, and 10 few months will have
ready for The press, work entitled ''The
Life and Writings of Thomas Paine"
which will be enriched by many essays
aud other miscellaneous efforts of Mr..
Paine, which have never met publica-
ton. Such work will undoubtedly
prove valuable acquisition 10 English
literature.

I by several of the Senate Committees for
some time past. It Is proposed, snd 8
bill is now accordingly being prepared,
ct the instance of one Of the leading
Sanste Committees. to consolidate the
Indian Bereau, the Educational Depart
ment and the Land Office, into one de-
partmeDt, creating q new cabinet Office.
1t ia believed that these bureaus, properly
organized into one department, can be
managed at much less expense than Is.
expended ia either the Indian Bureau or
the Land Office.
There seems to be q settled determina-
ton on the part Of Congress to unite
these bureaus, and having them worked
on q more economical plan, and it is
thought that these three can be better
consolidated than any Of the others.
PACIFIC
At the last meeting of the Senate
Committee on Pacific Railroads, after IL
was decided that the new plan OF guar
anteeiBg the interest, and not the pin
clpAl, on the bonds should be adopted, a
SUB committee was appointed, composed
Of Senators Howard, Ramsay and Rice,
to arrange general omnibus bill, il
which all the roads to be provided for
should be consolidated into one bill. The
sub committee have been engaged ever
since in arranging the bill, and it is ex-
pected they Will have 1t ready to report
90 the fdll committee tomorrow. IL is
not known how many roads to the Pa |
cihc will be included ia this bill, but it is |
certain that northern and southern |
route will be desigaated, and the amount |
stipulated viii not exceed thirty thou !
sand per mile, ths interest on which the |
Government guarantees.
FZ1YARCLAL.
Gen. Schenek will, at an early day |
this week, ask the consent Of the Ways |
and Means Committee TO report his pro- |
position, providing for the payment of |
the interest on ell bonds, except those /
expressly made payable in paper, to be /
paid in gold, and TO legalizs gold con-
tracts. Although the proposition failed /
at the last session, it is now believed that
1t will pass the House. The latter part
Of the proposition, which legalizes gold
contracts has already passed the Senate.

THE SECOND THOREA U HIS LIFE At
WALDEN POND

THE SECOND THOREA U HIS LIFE At
WALDEN POND.
| Edmond Stuart H0tham, the young
| disciple Of Taoreau, who is living in a
/ hermitage on the estate OF Ralph Waldo
Emerson, near Concord, Massachusetts,
| mas been giving some account of his life,
aud the expenses attending it. ThOTesu,
/ in his celebrated and charming Wal
/ den," was somewhat vague in many mi
/ nor peeuniary estima ates. The second
Hermit Of Walden " Is a New Yorker.
He concluded to prove for himself the
| correct living expenses consequent on
going absolutely into the woods, and de-
seTted Broad way for Massachusetts, just
as winter was closing in, last November.
With much blistering of hands, he says,
but caeeriulness of temper, ne dug into
. side hill and constructed cabin, hn-
i5hiDg it in just enc week. He lived
meanwhile, on Graham biscuit and 1.-THE
clssn water of WaIdsn.n The cabin is
light and warm, with earth thrown up
against the siding. An Intimate friend
OF the late Mr.. rhOreau declares that it
s more comfortable than the one in
which he lived, in nearly the same
spot. The entire cost Of the ed
ifice was Sl3 aj. The following
