MORNING. .SUl'TEMUEU 1 For Judge of I be Fifteenth Judical I Circuit. JOHN PITCHER, of Posey. WM. P. PARRETT, of Warrick. Prosecuting Attorney for the mm:. JAMES SHANKLIN, of Vanderburgh. 1ST or $60,000. The foreign note clerk in the Fulton Bank, New 1 ork, son of the cashier of the bank, whose name is Lane, was detected last week, in a series of emberxlements, carried on for several years, to the amount of $60,000, which he bad concealed by fraudulent entries in the Books. The whole of the large sum had been squandered in dissipation and,extravagant tiring. He was married and lived in but tether's family, but supported a mistress and her family in a separate establishment. Hi3 regular salary was but $900 per annum. He had a private stable and kept four test horses for which he had paid over $6000. In addition to the horses he had quite a variety of elegant equipages double carriages and single wagons, fancy sleighs and expensive harness. Lane also told the officers that be had expended a large amount of money of late in tho purchase of lottery tickets. A short time ago be invested in one day $1,000, and upon another occasion, for two weeks every day he bought tickets to the amount of $250. He drew a prize of $3,000 and that had been all the return the the speculation had made him. Disgusted at his ill fortune be relinquished the amuse meat Wis mistress after being informed Bow bis means to support her had been obtained, went to the fire place in her elegant apartments, whichappeared to be the repository for her valuables, produced her jewelcase. In it were a diamond cross which had cost $1,000, one pair of gold bracelets, five diamond rings, a pair of diamond ear-rings, a gold watch set with diamonds, and other jeweley, in all worth between five and six thousand dollars. The value ot the property recovered is estimated at $20,000. His father was the first to make the disclosure to the Directory. Being surety on the son's bond, the father is ruined by the son's hands. m The Great Kanteru. The experimental trip of the Great Eastern proved very satisfactory. She was as much under the control of her steering apparatus and engines as any small river steamer. She steers as easily as a wager boat, and her engines were found capable of starting her or arresting her motion literal ly almost by a tingle motion of the hand. After passing down the Thames without difficulty, on the '.8th inst., the Great Eattem got up steam and started for the Nore. As on the pre- Ming day, she was accompanied by tugs, a id the enthusiasm along the river, particularly at Gravesend, was very great. On arriving at Chapman's Head, at the top of Sea Reach, the tugs were cast off, and the great vessel was left to herself. Increased speed was then got on her, simply to give her good steerage way and move her engines readily, but with no view to test her power. In ten minutes, however, she set at rest all doubts as to her being the fastest vessel, beyond comparison, in tho woild. Employing less tban two-tbirJs of her power, in her worst trim, being six inches down by the head, and too high out of water to permit her poddies or screw blades to work properly, and with a strong tide against her, she ran a distance of fifteen statute miles in two minntes less than an hour. The engines worked with astonishing ease, and scarcely a vibration was per ceptible. Before anchoring, the vessel was put about, and went completely round in less than three-quarters of a mile. CtaANOR or Trade. Ten years ago the principal cargoes of the packets from Cincinnati and Louisville to Nashville were composed of flour, whisky, and bacon ; in boating seasons now, we see steamers from Nashville loaded to the guards with flour, whljky, tobacco and bacon bound up the river for Cincinnati and Wheeling. Where their freights take the Railroads for Baltimore and New York. The flour now made on the Cumberland, is the finest manufactured in the country. It is sent to Chicago and St. Louis and sold there for higher prices than any brands of the beat mills in those cities. In New York and Bo3ton, Tennessee flour has acquired a high reputation. The superiority of the flour is attributed to the excellent quality of wheat. Fifteen years ago the farmers on the Cumberland and Tennessee thought that their soil and climate did not permit the cultivation of wheat. From experience they have learnt tbat they can produce the best wheat in the world. Lessor the C. S. Steams Fcltos. The old steam frigate Fulton, the first Steamship built by the Government at New York, twenty-two years ago, went ashore in a gale, at Santa Rosa Island, off Pensaeola, in the Gnlf, on the 16th inst. The hull lies high and dry on the island, and is com plete y broken up. Tho Fulton was a sidea - wheel sterner, of the third class, is 608 tons measurement, and carrying five guns She was built at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, in 1937, and is, therefore, twenty-two years old. In her hull she was said to be one of the best and strongest vessels ever built at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and superior to many which have been constructed since She was also a tiut sailing steamer, and was considered one of the most serv iceable ves sels in the home squadron. Tkxas Pacific Railroad. Advices from Marshall, Texas, report that President Fowlkes, of the Pacific Railroad has made a final settlement with the new Company, and the creditors have obtained full possession of the road. The work will be recornnien end immediately.

TkrtlllaC Incident. One beautiful summer's afternoon, I, in company with my wife and child a little prattling fellow of six summers started out for a walk. A little dog, that was very much attached to the child, persisted in followiug as. Twice I had driven him back, the last time, as I thought, effectually. The afternoon was very fine, and as I slowly followed the serpent-like windings of the railroad, conversation naturally turned to the scenes

and little incidents.of our walk. The gaily plumed songsters, the'ehattering squirrels, and the bumming bee, all conspired to take our attention. Becoming wearied, at length we sat ourselves down on a grassy knoll by the side of the road, about two hundred yards from where a sharp angle occurs, hiding it from view. Our little boy was higher up on the bank, busily plcuking the blue bells and dandelions that grew in profusion around, and we soon lost sight of him altogether. . 11 wife was engaged in perusing a copy ot "'Baxter's Saint's Rest," while I had cast myself on the grass beside her, enwrapped in the beauty of the landscape spread out to view. There a field of taeseling corn gen tly waved to and fro, while here and there, a field of sweet scented clover shed its grateful fragrance on the air. 'Twas like some enchanted bower the silence broken only by the tinkling of sheep bells, or the lowing of kine, as they peacefully grazed the distant pasture. I was thinking of the infinite wisdom and goodness of the Great Creator, in thus making earth so beautiful for poor sinful man, and how thousands' are swept away from its charms forever and forgotten, when I was aroused from my reverie by the shrill whistle of the approaching train; instinctively I turned to look for little Harry, when a quick exclamation from my wife caused me to turn. She was pale as death. " William, look at our child," she faintly whispered. I did so; and my God I who can tell the agony that wrung my heart at that instant I The little recreant had wandered np the track unheeded, and sat himself down on one of the oaken sleepers to cull his flowers, just below the curve, unconscious of the death that hovered near him. I started up fbe track toward him, beckoning him to come to me as 1 advanced. Instead of doing so, be apprehended some playful sport, commenced running directly on the track, and laughing gleefully as he went. The smoke from the advancing engine was at this instant distinctly visible; it waa not possible that I could overtake him in time to save him from tbat cruel death. As it was, I was but hurrying him to his doom. No, it was evident my efforts could be of no avail. I breathed a prayer to Him on high, and staggard back. At this moment, the sharp bark of a dog broke upon my ear. With one gleeful bound our boy cleared the track, and grasped the little wooly intruder in bis arms. The train rushed round the curve with a whizzing sound. Tho iron monster was cheated of his prey. I am uu old man, but I must confess tbat as I once more held our little truant in my arms, safe, the tear of gratitude started to my eyes. The little dog bad perseveringly followed the child unseen, to be the means of saving his life. Blind, blind indeed is he who could not see the finger of God in this. American Presbyterian. Tito Miami Tribe Amongst Vmt We presume that the most of our readers have heard of the Miami tribe of office-holders and office-seekers, who once infested the county of Hamilton, in the State of Ohio. This was a tribe of politicians, and lightfingered gentleman, who sought to manage everything in their own way, not subject to the Constitution of the United 8tatcs, bat for their own selfish purposes. They bad succeeded, by intrigue and trickery, to get bold of the county offices, and to keep them for a considerable length of time, and had their triggers set to bold them for good and all, and their nominations already made for ten years to come. Tbey woidd bargain and sell to one another in this wise : " You give me the nomination this time for Sheriff, or for County Commissioner, and so on, and you shall have it nt tho next Convention,' until the offices were disposed of for ten years ahead ; when some one of the clique got tired waiting for bis rime to come, and let the cat out of the wallet, which knocked the whole clique into a cocked hat. The news spread through the country like fire in a dry stubble, and the people the hardfisted yeomanry of the land rose up in their might and strength as one man against them, and set their feet upon their necks, and the consequence was that the last mother's ron of them were routed, horse, foot, and dragoon, and honest men chosen to fill the different county offices. Now let us say to the honest and hard fisted yeomanry, (of every political party in old Spencer,) tbat we have right here in old Spencer, a Miami tribe, that has to begot rid of in the same way as that of Ohio. Tbey have their men selected already to fill our county offices for a number of years to tifni . i a fi a a o ir come. ui me people suomit to u i we answer no I a thousand times no I After seeing such manifestations made for office as wo have seen lately, let us rise as one man nnd blot the last one of them from record. Rockport Democrat. Nearly every county in this part of the State has its Miami tribe of petty office holders ; the vilest tribe of these has held rule in Perry county the last ten years. We are glad to hear tbat the honest German citizens in that county are making Inroads upon them, and putting into office competent men of their own nationality. A Tot on Srouv. Some twenty-five or thirty years ago, Mr. Harris owned a horse that met with a horrible accident. He was attached to a plow in a field, and becoming frightened, ran away. The horse made a spring and alighted on the stump of a tree, which was about six feet high and nine inches in circumference. The stump went entirely through the body of the animal, raising the skin over five inchea near the back bone, but not breaking through. An axo was procured the tree chopped down and removed from the body of the horse. The animal was considered ruined, and some one advised Mr. Harris to have him killed to end his sufferings. The horse finally walked to bis stable, where he received every attention, and in less than a year was sound as ever. The place where the tree entered soon healed up, but some three months afterwards small splinters were discharged from the back. Although this seems an incredible story, it is positively true, and there are people still living in Watcrville who remember the occurrence well. The horse did not die for many years afterwards, and never appeared to have suffered any material injury from the terrible impalement. WatervilU Timet. Judge McCandless, of the United States Circuit Court, has delivered an opinion in the important railroad bond case of Oelricks k Co., European bankers, vs. the city of Pittsburg, deciding against the city, and directing the United States Marshal to proceed with the sale of the stocks held by the city in the Pittsburg Gas Works.

Cou ron Hydrophobia. A respected coriesponden t sends us the following receipts for insertion in our columns. The first of the annexed prescriptions is by M. Cossar, a French physician, and is said to be a cure for the bite of a mnd dog : " Take two table spoonful of fresh chloride of lime, in powder mix it with half a pint of water, and with this wash keep the wound constantly bathed, nud frequently renewed. The chloride gas possesses the power of decomposing this tremendous poison, and renders mild and harmless that venom against whose resistless attack the artillery of medical science has been so long directed in vain. It is necessary to add that this wash should be applied as soon as possible after the infliction of the bite. The following are the results of this treatment : From 1810 to 1824, the number of persons admitted into tho Breslau Hospital, was 184; into the Hospital at Zurich, 233 persons bitten by different animals, (182 by dogs,) of whom only four died." A writer in the National Intelligencer, says that the spirit of hartshorn is a certain remedy for the bite ot a inad dog. The wounds, he adds, should be constanty bathed with it, and three or four doses diluted, taken inwardly during the day. The hartshorn decomposes chemically the virus insinuated into the wound, and immediately alters and destroys its deleteriousness. The writer, who resided in Brazil for some time, first tried it for the bite of a scorpion, nnd found thnt it romoved pain nnd inflammation instantlv. Subsequently he tried it

lor the bite of the rattlesnake with similar success. At the suggestion of the writer, an old friend nnd physician of England tried it in cases of hydrophobia and always with success. Soxa of Malta. Our young men arc preparing to give the Sons of Malta a distinguished reception during the Fair week. The midnight proecssion will be an impos ing scene. The following is an account of one of their processions during the Fair nt Kanesville, Ohio, last week. Thousands of people arc in the streets, frantic with curiosity to see the midnight procession of the weird-1 ike Sons of Malta. A3 the ghostly file slowly passes the Zanc House, stepping solruenly in time with funeral music, the people are rushing wildly up and down thoroughfares to catch a satisfying glimse, and a thousand nioutbs arc full of u thousand droll remarks. It has been surmised that the uniforms of the Sons consist of their wives' and sweethearts' nightgown9, and the number of ladies out of bed watching the spectacle, ' -eems to indicate that they await the return of the Sons tbat they may obtain their night clothing, that they may go to bed. The parade last night was capitally organized for effect. The principal officers were on horseback, and their knightly uniforms carried fancy back to the days of chivalry. The file, as usual, took the middle of the street, on foot, and resembled tho Caratbusians in funeral pro cessions. The Sons of Malta is an in stitution. Thb E. k C. Rail Road. Thecorrcspond cnt of the Cincinnati Commercial, who mude a visit to the Sullivan County Fair, speaks thus of our road . " This road, though not one of the gnat thoroughfares, and consequently but little known to the masses of tho traveling public, is, nevertheless, a good "institution." Its through passenger nnd freight traffic is comparatively little; nnd to judge from the towns along its line small and " few and far between," its local busiiicss cannot be heavy. Yet, however, by rigid economy and general good management on the part of tho officers, it has been kept in excellent running order, and fully sustained its credit even through the hard times. The crops along its line nre far better than any one who heard the croaking of last summer might expect. There is scarcely a jicrson offers a word of complaint about the wheat harvest. In fact, there is nothing to prowl for, unless at the price, which is low, only C5 cents. Oats have yielded in gre;U abund ance, and cvcrj'tKxly says the corn crop is more than an average win in quantity and quality. From Pikk's Peak. The Express from Denver City has brought news to the l.Mli inst. The amount of gold durt by this last arrival was ?2.r,noo. The State Constitution, has no doubt, been rejected. So far as known. 2,179 voted against the Constitution, nnd 563 for it. Heavy rains had fallen in the previous two weeks, nnd there was a rtee in the Platte and its tributaries in consequence of which the gold hunters were returning to the States in boats.

A correspondent who signs himself " Justice," sends us a statement of a case of malpractice by a professed Occulist, in which he says a person lost the sight of an eye, which had become inflamed by tin presence of apiece of stick under the lid. The Doctor treated the inflamation as an organic disease, and infused acids into the eye, till he made the sufferer crazy from pain, and finally destroyed the sight. Our correspondent should have given us his signature, and some proof of the truth of the facts he sbites, to secure the publication ot his letter. If the treatment was such as he describes, the instance of grosj malpractice ought to be exposed.

The city of Providence, Rhodo Ish

land, is noted for its comparative great wealth. There is only one small city, we believe, in the country that equals it iu proportion to the population, and that is New Bedford, Massachusetts. The Journal, con tains a list of no less than two hundred and six tax-payers, who arc assessed on over $50,000 each, and nearly one-half alove $100,000. At the head of the list is Mi. Alexander Duncan, senior member of the Panking House of Duncan, Sherman k Co., of New Yotk. The first seven names, all above half a million, are the following, with the projiortion of tax upon each, hi. i would seem to be nt the rate of about 80 cts. on the hundred dollars: Property. Tax.

The dray, without pall or plume, bears away the mortal remains of the "deadi wounded, nnd missing," of the defunct canine. " Mot a drum was heard, nor a funeral note," as tho clod or the wave entombs them forever. A singular death has occurred at Hoxton, England. A woman was engaged in the area in the front of her house, when n monkey belonging to an Italian organ grinder, jumped on her back from the street, and so alarmed her that 6be was attacked with convulsions, and died two days after. The Decatur Democrat suggest O. B. Ilord, Esq., as the Democratic candidate for Attorney General. The suggestion ia endorsed by the Richmond Jeffcsonian. Henry Ward Beecher attended a New York county fair last week with two young heifers, a yoke of ahort-yorn oxen, and a pair of Yorkshire pigs. He got two premiums and a bad cold. ftjf Lieut. Mowry has been elected (it I-k-.it i- to Congress from Arizonia, and Judge Otero is re-elected from New Mexico. SMI Tools. We refer our readers to the advertisement of Messrs. Smiths' edge tool manufacturers on Main Street. Their establishment is one of the roost creditahle to the mechanical enterprise and genius of tho city. They are self-made men ; commencing in a humble way, like the Ames at Springfield, Mass., they have edueated themselves by practical experiments in their business, till they have attained a skill and proficiency that reflects credit upon tho city as well as upon themselves. Tbey have not yet the means of giving to their wnre9 the high finish which some of the eastern and English tools receive, but in quality tbey eijual the beat made in the country. No workmen who has long U3cd their tools will conseut to have any other when he can procure them. The testimony is unanimous in regard to the excellence of Messrs. Smiths' iiiatisfactare?. We arc glad to see their business steadily increasiug, and we arc confident that in a few years, Messrs. Smith's Edge Tool factory will be one of the most important workshops in the city, one to which wc can point with pride us an instance of the triumph of skill, industry and indomitable perseverance. The establishment should be cherished and aided by our own citizens MfKiiflt, and should receive the fostering patronage of every friend of home industry. It is such men thnt build up our towns, and secure the prosperity, and promote tho true independence of the country. tejT The Directors of the District Fair arc making the most of the fine weather to push forward all their preparations for the mmWh Tho amphitheatres are np, more than fifty stalls aro completed, tho ladies' cottage, with Its appendages, will lc in readiness lielbre it will bt needed.

B$u We are informed by Mr. Ingle that the Steam Fire Engine arrived by last evening s train. Six years ago the woods obtruded themselves into our very streets; to-day the shade seeker must walk a long mortal I hour to find a half dozen trees-. All of our readers who are in want of good and durablt pictures, will please bear in mind that the place to got such is at J. 1'krrv Elliott's City Gallery, 45 Main Street. Mr. E. does not make the "twenty cent " nor the " twenty-live cent " kind, but his prices arc as low as good pictures can be afforded ; and the finer qualities of cases he sells rerg low.

The cornerstone of the new Church edifice on the corner of Locust and Second streets, w is laid with appropriate ceremonies on Sunday afternoon. This building i;; leing erectt-d by the New School Presbyterian Congregation, Iiev. W. II. McCakku, Pastor, and is intended to be one of the finest structures for religious purposes, in this part of the State. Cultivated Chestnuts. We yesterday received a specimen of chestnuts raised by Mr. Day, of Mechanicsrille. They are from trees raised from the chestnut planted nine years ago, for shade and ornamental trec9. The tree bears in about eight years from the seed. The fruit appears improved in yield and quality by being planted in cultivated ground, liy selecting the chestnut in putting out ornamental and shade trees, a valuable fru t as well as ornamental and diadc is to be secured.
