the magnificence Of his conceptions,

vitality of his diction rivaled even the wonder
full originality and splcnlor Of Coleridge; but
they remember also, with sentiment Of per

lineage; while dcploring his faults, they exult
in his noble intellect, powers, and his ever
growing renown America may hail linn ~
its foremost original author. The stage
will always rejoice in him a. one Of

Consul Shaw writes the state department from
Manchester. England. that reports from the
government of India place the area of wlica'
lands in that country for 1854 At NJ O 900 acres.
Consul shaw says: THE estimated yield from
the above acreage is s,WUOU tons yearly. In
addition 10 the ,1.OUWO acres now available
for cultivation in India it is estimated that with
new railroad lines 9.Wn,,sO acres of good wheat
lands can lie opened IN the Punjaub alone. A
competent authority gives it as his opinion
that the wheat lands of India are fully equal in
extent to the wheat lands of the United States,
and that the rapidly extending wheat promises
q largely increased whest Weld from India IN
the future at very low cost These facts are
important and impressive, and should he duly
considered by our people. As the outlook now
appears, the American markets and those Of
the South American states must soon provide
consumers for our American wheat In dis
GUESSING and adjusting any future commercial
policy in the country this point should be kept
prominently in view.

The President at Gettysburg.

The pr, -ident and his party arrived ON the
Gettysburg Battle Field upon special train at
noon on Monday last Among those who ac-
companicd him were Vice President Hendricks,
Secretary of War EnIicott, wife and daughter,
Secretary Whitney, Postmaster General Villas,
Gen. FRYE, the SWISS minister, and Comnls-
sioner Black aud wife 4 salute of artillery

When tine presidents train was near Mount
Hope station, Nd. returning from Getty sburg,
three pistol shots were heard in quick sue
ccssion, a. from revolver, and the flash of
the weapon was seen within two or three feet
~ the moving train. II is probable that some
enthusiast had devised this method of celebra,
ting tho passage of the president and
that the demonstration was only intended a.
salute. 1t created some amusement and gave
rise to some jocular comment among the
passengers, but since rumors have spread
through the city that the president was shot at.
The president expressed himself, however, as
having passcda pleasant day and having been
very much interested by what ho had seen and
heard upon the battle field OF Gettysburg.

User. Russia is searching tho high seas over

England is actively engaged in Frustrating her

Nassau. Bermuda, and tho Canary Islands.
The Russian corvettes are searching in every
direction, but you will notice that an English
man owar is in the track OF almost every Rus
sian vessel ahoat II the South had been able

the naval feature Of our strife would have
been a memorable one Russia il exactly In the
situation We occupied. She has not an Atlantic
port, and as long rs England 10 active she
never will have one. On the other hand, Eng

The case of Henry Digby, residing
near McLeansbOro, in this State, is q
peculiar one, and exhibits in a striking
manner the hardships which may he en-.
dured without a remedy under our laws
as they exist. His sister, named Eliza
Digby, was engaged to be married five
years ago to . theiving merchant named
John Sinkler. of the same town. Two
days before the wedding was to have oc-
Cured, John Sinkler was killed in his
bed at midnight. In his statement be-
fore death he said that he believed Henry
Digby was his murderer; that it was ex-
tremely dark when he was attacked, and
that he supposed Digby's motive ia
commit the murder was founded on Oh.
position to the wedding which was soon
to take place. Digby was tried, con-
victed and sentenced to Imprisonment in
Chester Penitentiary for fourteen years.
Subsequently, Eliza Digby. the girl who
had been engaged to John Sinkler, mar
ried Dick Sinkler, brother of the MUIR
dered man. Two years ago, Dick Sim
kler killed man in row ut Belle Riv-
er. and was sentenced to the penitentiary
for life. It has since TRANSFERRED that he
and not Henry Digby killed John Sin.
kler, his brother, and that his motive
was violent passion for the girl who
was to become his brothers wife. and
whom he afterward married. These
facts served to get Digbys case before
the Illinois Supreme Court, which de.
cided that the evidence on which he had
been convicted was insufficient for that
purpose, and he was liberated from pris.
on. His vindication was complete, and
he was welcomed in honor and with re-
joicings by his old neighbors and fr'esds.
