A QUEER DISCOVERY IN A TREE.

During the gale in August last large
button-ban or sycamore tree was blown
down near the residence Of Governor
Douglas. 1t was given 70 a man who
cut it up for frewood In doing so he
found imbedded in the trunk, ffty-nine
inches in diameter, an old horseshoe with
nails in one side. II was twenty-five
inches from the bark or outer edge of the
tree, the wood Of which is perfectly sound.
The tree is known to be more than one
hundred and thirty years old, and 1t Is es-
timated that the shoe has been imbedded
in it for more than one hundred and ten
wears. In We olden time it was a custom
AIRY thing to nail old h6rseshoes TO trees
for hitching horses to, and it is supposed
that this one was nailed there for this
purpose, and as the tree grew it encased
the shoe in it. Mr.. Douglas house
formerly belonged to the Mather family.
A brick building used 10 stand in the
corner Of the lot where the Mathers had
their office, and the probability is that
the tree was used as hitching post

A meeting of prominent democrats was
held at Cincinnati on the Goth at the Grand
Hotel, to take steps to secure the holding of
the Democratic National Convention at that
place next summer.
Senator Vance, of North Carolina, is noted
as a funny man. His last joke is his best.
He said: "The Southern democrats are
Union men--the best Union men in the coun-
try"

ington sadder if not wiser men than when
they went home, last summer. They appealed
to the country, and are not pleased with the

When the democratic brethren arose on the
fifth of November and took survey of the
field just one solitary oasis gaddened their
eyes in all the dreary waste of republican
success. That blooming spot was Yazoo.-

The Butler State Committee in Massachu-
sets have issued an address, in effect, con
graduating the 10000 democratic voters
upon the manliness with which they stood up
and were beaten. and urging them to broaden
and perfect their organization for future con
tests, to insure the complete success of their
''principles, measures, and men,"

The popular impression, strengthened by
some scientific opinions, that consumption
cannot be cured, has no doubt fastened the
death of many nvalids, by depriving them of
the consolation of hope. Persons afflicted with
pectoral disease should be supported by every
assurance of a cure, not alarmed by the
gloomy, forcboding countenances of those
around. For our part, we do not believe that
consumption is incurable, and let physicians
theorize as they will, we have a mass of evil
dence to prove that persons having all the
symptoms of consumption, cough, deep,
bloody cxpectoration, pain and oppression,
sore throat, diarrhea, night sweats, burning
fever. &C.. have been permanently cured by
"Dr. Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild

The report of the Bureau of Statistics
with reference to foreign commerce is sup
plemented by some statements bringing
several of the items down very nearly to
date. BY these we learn that the excess
of exports over imports for the first eight
months of the calendar year was Sl40,-
2S5, 6SS, as against an excess tor the same
period last year of SlSS, 605,224. But dur
ing the next two months the exports again
rapidly gained ground, the excess being
SCI, 27S, POI, against AN excess last year of
only $iS, S60,427. For October, the value
of exports was larger than for any month
in the history of the country. Meanwhile
there was Il corresponding excess of the
imports of specie. Up to the close of the
fiscal year, June 30. the imports exceeded
the exports by S4,701 Al; but from July
to Nov. q the imports took the lead to
the amount of 500 900 900.
